states have two cent passenger rate and whatever loss is incurred is recoy- cred through freight revenue. The jus tice Of such q procedure was recently passed upon by the Supreme Court of West Virginia and the decision is so far-reaching that we have asked L. E. Johnson, president of the Nor- folk and Western Railway whose road contested the case to briefly review the suit. Mr. Johnson said in part:
 Some ten years ago, passenger fares were fixed by the legislatures of large number of states at two cents a mile As a basis for such economic legislation, no examination was made of the cost of doing the business so regulated, nor was any attention given to the fact whether such a rate would yield to the rail way companies an adequate or any net return upon the capital invested in conducting this class of business.
 Such a law was passed in West Virginia in 1907 The Norfolk and Western Railway Company put the rate into effect and maintained it for two years. Its accounting during these two years showed that two cents a mile per passenger barely paid the Out-ef-poeket cost and noth- ing was left to pay any return on capital invested. It sought relief from the courts. Expert accountants for

OUR PUBLIC FORUM
E~"" L-, Ls Q VOIIIFoOII On Two-Cent Passenger Rates

both the State and the Railway Com pany testified that the claims Of 5ae. railroad were sustained by the facts. Two cents did not pay the cost of carrying a passenger a mile. The State, however. eontended that the railroad was earning enough surplus on its state freight business to give al far return upon the capital used in it's passenger as well as it's freight business. Tor the purposes of the case, the railroad did not deny this, but held to its contention that thei State could not segregate it's pas senger business for rate fixing with out allowing a rate that would bel sufficient 10 pay the cost of doing business and enough to give some return upon the capital invested in doing the business regulated This was the issue presented to the Su- preme Court It's decision responds to the judgment of the fair-minded sentiment of the country. The Su- Breme Court says that even though Q railroad earns a surplus on par-I ticular commodity by charging req sonable rates. that affords no reason for compelling it to haul anothers person or property for less than cost. The surplus from a reasonable rate properly belongs to the railway com pany. If the sur -I-5 is earned from an unreasonable rate then that rate should be reduced The State may not even up by. requiring the railroad to carry other traffic for nothing or for less than cost
 The decision is a wholesome ono and demonstrates that the ordinary rules of fair dealing apply to railway companies. The fact that one makes q surplus on his wheat crop would never be urged as a reason for com polling him to sell his cotton at less than cost It would not satisfy the man who wanted bread 10 be told that it's high price enabled the cotton manufacturer 10 get his raw product for less than cost. Tn this case the court reaflrmed the homely maxim that each tub must stand upon it's own bottom"

Bankers Encourage Better
 Cattle Raising.

The idea of bankers coming to the aid of farmers in the growing of better stock has become a very popular one throughout the United States and these so.called scrubs and mopgrel bred animals are fast being done away with to make room for prize-w winning blue bloods that top the market both in beef and milk production. We clipped the following from Commercial Appeal in hope that it will inspire the bankers of Lonoke county to take up this great movement. The last Legis- lature placed this county in the tick eradication section and when we are placed above the quarantine line fine cattle can be imported with little or no danger of loss from tick fever and our cattle will command equal prices of those states included in the great cattle belt of the Union.
 Trenton. Tenn.-A meeting of 1 bankers and farmers of Gibson County was held here today to determine a method of encourag ing the raising of better cattle. Nearly every bank in the county had a representative present, and farmers were also on hand.
 As q result of this meeting the bankers of the county have agre- ed to lend for term of two years funds to the amount of $15, ,000 at i 6 per cent per annum for the purpose of investing in blooded beef cattle The farmers who perhaps otherwise would not undertake the breeding of fine cattle by thus offering to him cheap money WhereWith to enter the business. For tie carrying out of this idea district cattle clubs will be organized, and ir turn county association of sev eral district organizations Throughout the co operation O these clubs the banks of th( county hope to place the none 5 weere it will do the greatesi good
 The breeds of cattle that vii be encouraged will be the Polf Angus, He- eford and Duraham There are already number .

 these.
