WILSON URGES RAIL BOARD.
Wants Congress to Name Commission
to Formulate Plans.


Washington, June president Will
son is urging congress to appoint a
commission to study all questions re-
lating to land transportation with a
view to laying down definite policy
for future railroad legislation.
The plan is to have joint commits
sion made up of five members from
each of the senate and house commit
tees on interstate commerce, such COM
mission to be clothed with full powers
to make the necessary investigation
and instructed to report to congress its
recommendation as to general legis-
lative policy affecting railroads to be
pursued by congress.
Many Problems Considered.
Among the important phases of the
railroad situation to be taken up by
the commission are questions affecting
securities. issues and their regulation,
extensions, franchises, government
ownership. rate regulation, state legis-
,ation and it's relation to federal !eg;s-
lation. taxation and Kindred matters.
All these questions present more or
less difficult problems, and each of
them has come at different times be-
fore congress and the various stateleg-
islatures for discussion and legislative
action. AS consequence the railroads
have been harasseG Dy NeAatious in
vestigation and legislation, both by fed
eral and state authority. Much of the
legislation has been conflicting.
1t is the idea of rhe president that
this can be corrected if a special COM
mission should be appointed to deal
solely with the railroad questions de-
Gliding on the character Of the federal
legislation necessary to straighten out
the situation both with respect to the
railroads and to the several states and
to outline general policy to be- fol-

POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT
Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1916-04-06

AS the contest for Democratic ma
tional committeeman draws to ;
close it is apparent that large ma
jority of the informed rank and file
of the party believe it is important
that John E. Wagner, of Larned bt
selected for the place. They also
feel that it is equally important thai
Jas. w. Orr and w. F. Sapp be moi
elected.
This rank and file is for Wagner,
not so much because he lives IN the
central part of the state, nor be
cause of his services to the party,
nor because of his claims to the
place, nor because of his qualiica.
tons; but more because he is the
only candidate against Sapp and
Orr and the one Democrat in the
state who promises to put up win
ming fight for the place.
News dispatches and press com
ment throughout the state show be-
yond question that it is the field
against Wagner; and the rank and
file of the party are with Wagner
and against the field.
The average Democrat feels that
under the Circumstance that exist,
Wagner's selection is for the best in
terest of the party. Possibly not
for some of its politicians, but Ger.
tainly for the party as a whole
Orr's selection means the perpetu-
alton of the alleged federal machine
which has already hurt the party, in
many instances almost fatally, where
ever its scheming Vaccinations have
been felt. The majority of Kansas
Democrats are just as opposed now
to political machines as they were
when they led the voters in the re.
volt which over threw the Chester
l Long, ST Leland, and Dave Null
vane rings of the Republican party.
They know that a machine man is
just as self-seeking and devoid of
honesty of purpose in one as in an
Other also as Inconsistent. AS wit
ness the fight Geo. A. Medley is max
ing for Orr, one of the biggest cor
poration attorneys in Kansas, when
This same Medley arose in the state
convention at Topeka four years
ago and made a grandstand play
against Henderson Martin for state

chairman on the ground that Martin
was corporation attorney. The
fact that Martin explained that hi:
corporation connection consisted
solely of local attorneyship for 6
railroad at salary of some ten OF
fifteen dollars a month, ard that afteI
his election as chairman he resigned
from this sinecure, does not lesser
Neeley's inconsistency and evident
hypocrisa in now championing Orr:
cause in payment for the latter:
contribution to the Medley campaign
for United States Senator.
Wagner may be too scrappy tc
please some of the politicians, just
as his tongue is sometimes too SHARP
for his own good, but the fact re-
mains that up to date Orr has moi
answered his charges that the At.
Crimson man is trying to be elected
national committeeman and state
senator from his district, both attbe
same time, and all while holding a
$I2,ooo year federal position.
Those who know Jim Orr personally
know him to be big, wholesome,
able Democrat, but they also know
that the indulgence of a porcine app
petite will ruin a good man political
ly, also that Democratic party must
keep itself free from such appetites
as we'll as from political rings and
machines, or it will meet the same
fate that overlook the Republican
party, only quicker.
AS for Col. Sapp, the average
Democrat views his case more i'll
sorrow than in anger He is Demo
crat through and through, and a
fairly good on as goodness runs in
the Sapp family. During the long
years when Democrats we're Demo
Gratis for principle only. when the
sinews necessary to political warfare
we're forthcoming only when the
faithful let their loyalty get the bet.
ter of their judgment and dug down
into their private purses-during
these long, lean, years Col. Bill's
"bar'l" was ever at the command
of the party, and from it was dug
up the needful for many hard
fought Kansas campaign; but even
in those days, sincere Democrat as
he was, Col. Sapp was the greatest

hindrance with which the Demo-
cratic party of Kansas had to con-
tend. His views on the prohibitory
question were as pronounced then as
they are now, and as out of har-
many with the sentiment of the rank
and file and majority of the leaders
of the Democratic party, yet at
state convention after state conven-
ton he appeared as the leader of
forces trying to commit the Demo-
cratic party to resubmission.
Though no more successful i'll his
jousts against the prohibitory law
than was that other Don Quixote
against the water mills of old. Col.
Sapp's efforts nevertheless gave the
opposition color of excuse for eter-
nally damning the Democratic party
as the party of resubmisslon. In
recent years since talk of resubmis-
sion has come to be on par with
silk hats as political joke, Col.
Sapp has taken the same mistaken
stand against woman's suffrage, and
is now known by women throughout
the length and breadth of Kansas as
one of their bitterest and most de-
termined opponents.
Col. Sapp's material services to
the party In the past are unquestion-
ed, but he has been repaid by two
terms as national committeeman,
the only reward he has ever asked,
and the time is now at hand when
the future welfare of the party
should and must be considered
above gratitude for past services,
especially when such past services
were in so ma y instances so detri-
mental. no matter how freely given
and we'll intended
The question for the delegates at
Hutchinson to decide is plain.
Whether by Orr's selection the par
~ is to be branded as dominated by
a federal machine beaded by Medley
ct al Or, by naming Sapp again,
laying it open to the charge of being
controlled by 4he liquor interests
speaking through Billiard of Topeka
and other open and avowed enemies
of prohibition
The alternative is the selection of
John E Wagner, Of Larned. On
these issues and alignment there is
no question that could the masses
of the party speak at a primary,
Wagner would be named by 500
votes over either of the other caDdi-
dates. The anti.machine and re-
spectacle elements of the party must
see Wagner through at Hutchinson
or go down with him to one of the
worst and most far reaching defeats
they have ever sustained in the his
tory of the democratic party in
Kansas. -Tiller and Toiler, Larned
