RAILROAD OWNERS.

Howard Elliott, In the course OF an
address before the National Chamber
Of Commerce at Washington, recently
said:
Railways do not belong TO few
rich men or bankers. They are not
the personal property Of the officials.
The directors do not own them-di-
rectors are the trustees and servants
of stockholders. There are at least
1900. 900 owners Of the securities OF
these American railways. 1t is fair TO
assume that dependent upon these
owners are four other persons, and In
that case this would mean 100000
people. There are 100000 men, ap-
proximately, employed in the railway
service, and If y9A allow hVe persons
TO be depending uHn each, that would
mean 100000. There are at least
/ 900 900 workers in industrial plants
directly dependent upon railway oper-
ation-such as coal mines, rail mills,
car shops and so on. They represent
another 100000 people.
Thus you have about 100000 peo-
pie out of a total population Of 1907
100000 who depend very largely for
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1916-02-19

A PLEA FOR CLEANER
STREETS

Commissioner J. H. Liedtke, in an
interview in another part Of The Ar

people in Rock Island-some of
the business men, according to Mr..
Liedtke's observations-hav gotten

The commissioner enters plea for
public cooperation in upholding the
spirit of the city beautiful slogan by
getting the habit Of depositing paper
and scraps Of paper in the receptacles

have become careless, and have got

Every civic organization in Rock

Counter Irritation,

The other day we observed that the
skin of the thorax and abdomen is sup
piled with sensory branches from the
intercostal (between-the-ribs) nerves,
II pairs of which are given off from
the spinal cord. We mentioned how
pain in the appendix region (the lower
right corner Of the abdomen) some
times means, not appendicitis or sur
gerry, but pleurisy or pneumona-th
intercostal nerves evidently trying to
play joke on the doctor or the pa
| tent
Take the sixth and seventh pairs,
which supply sensation to the skin
over the pit of the stomach. They leave
the spine way up between the shout
der blades, and there is the spot to ap-
ply your counter-irritation for pain in
the stomach. There is the place for
the mustard.
If counter-irritation is of any value
In the relief Of inflammation 1t must

tainly not through the circulation. The
proper place 10 apply the hot stun
is therefore not necessarily directly

their daily bread and butter upon hav-
ing this great piece Of transportation
machinery prosperous. But there are
a great many others who are interest
ed. The insurance companies have
81 500 900 900 invested in railway Sc
curities, representing 10000, 900 policy
holders: the savings banks Of the
country have 100000 invested in
railway securities, and there are about
II, 600 900 depositors in these savings
banks. So, there are 100000 people
who are vitality interested, either as
holders of insurance policies or de-
positors in savings banks, in the sue
cess of this great piece Of machinery.
When, therefore, you speak Of the
number Of our citizens directly inter-
ested in the railways. you really are
speaking of at least 100000 people.
1t is well to remember this momentous
fact in considering this very difficult
transportation problem"
1t Is true, as Mr.. Elliott says, that
the railroads do not literally belong"
to bankers and rich men; the stocks
and bonds Of railroads are scattered
throughout not only the United States,
but other nations. At the same time,
persons who read the newspapers will
recall that the control" Of at least
some of our railroads does rest with
rich men and bankers. A New York
banking house controlled the New
Haven so absolutely that 1t was able
to manipulate that system to the
ruination Of the New Haven, the op-
preston Of the territory it served and
the distress OF thousands of stock
holders. One man is generally known
to have been responsible for the loot
ing Of the Frisco. Two men made the
Rock Island bankrupt and reduced a
splendid property to a wreck.
These instances, we hope, mark the
exception rather than the rule as re-
CARDS the control Of railroads. But
Mr.. Elliott's statements are sufficient
argument in themselves Tor govern
mental supervision OF railroad secur-
ity issues and a tighter reign on rail
road financieering. The good" roads
roads operated as railroads and moi
as adjuncts to Wall Street speculative
markets-will not suffer from closer
supervision Of their security issues
! and the thousands Of dependents on
bad" roads will profit by it. Regula
ton may overdo itself, as Mr.. Elliot
says, but it is the misfortune of legiti
mate enterprises to suffer TO- the sin.
of the illegitimate.
