have to say. MT. Kruttschnitt, exec utive head of the Southern Pacific, has written an article dealing with the financing of railroads. He said in part:
 "The financing of a railroad is function which the people, through their servants, the Railroad Commis- sioners and the Legislators, have never attempted, but it is most im- portant problem. especially to sec tions of State where new railroads are needed. The placing of securities has been left entirely with the pro moter and owner of railroads.
 "The immediate determination of what earnings the railroad shall be permitted to receive and what bur dens 1t shall have put on 1t is in the bands of other servants of the public

On Financing Railroads

the Legislators and the Commis- sioners.
 Managing a railroad is quite .difrer. ent from managing . government where the money Is raised by taxa tion. When the expenditures, fo good reasons or otherwise. increase taxes can be equally increased. The railroads. while servants of the pub lie, cannot raise money with such ease and facility. The railroads must keep their expenditures within their incomes because while they have some control over their expenditures they have almost no control over their incomes, their rates being fixed by public authorities.
 There is not a railway manager in the country today who is not fearful that under the press of increasing de- the country will, in few years, break down. unless the railroads are allowed to earn larger funds wherewith to build it up. There are vast sections of the country, especially in the West, where more railroads are needed and they cannot be built unless the rail. ways raise new capital.
 People invest money in order to make money, and they are skeptical as to whether they can make money by investing in concerns that are dealt with stringently and unfairly. Rail- road securities must be made more attractive to invite investments, and in order that they may be made more attractive, tho roads must be allowed earnings that will enable them to mss< tho increased capital eharges.'

The Unspeakable Turk.

If Mohammed II. had foreseen the
troubles that lay in store for his des
cendants when he crossed the Bospho-
rus, in 1453 at the head of an enor-
nous army of Turks and successfully
laid siege to Constantinople, he prob
ably would have abandoned all thought
of conquest in Europe and been con
tent to confine his military activities
to Asia, says a writer in Cartoons mag
szne.
For years Turkey has been a con
stant and an active source of annoy
ance to the powers of Europe. When
not engaged in war with one or anoth-
er of her immediate neighbors, she
has been kept busy putting down in
surrections within her own provinces,
or disputing Russia's efforts to gain
Mediterranean outlet through the
Dardanelles.
Not only has Turkey concerned her
self with her own troubles, but when
ever anyone else has started a fight,
she has jumped into the midst of it.,
impelled, apparently, by the sheer
love of fighting. Turkey may truly be
said to be "glutton for punishment"
Since 1876 the Ottoman empire has
been almost constantly at war, and be
fore that time, the troubles of the
Turk were so multitudinous that he
was reduced to bankruptcy.
Doubtless a large proportion of Tur-
keys troubles may be traced to eff
forts of Russia to secure a harbor on
the Mediterranean Sea. However, this
very source of trouble has been the
Turks sole salvation Fearing to let
Russia expand and become more pow
erful. the other European powers, par
ticularly England, repeatedly have
gone to the Ottoman's aid at crit
ical time, and so baked the advance
of the Russian bear. Only the timely

The Ottoman army is in poor con
