Mnling and Financial NelUS
BY REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEkl YORK, Oct 31.-Monetary cC...lIons lost much of their adverse iillIuence today as a result of informal assurances that the local loan situa- aon Is now under control and partly because of foreign advices which pointed more irresistiDly to the dis solution of the central powers.
 Trading in stocks was active during the morning when prices inclined downward, but became more moderate later on the general advance in which early losses were largely replaced by many material gains.
 United States Steel was forced 10 a new low level for the current move ment in the heavy selling of the tore noon, but was among the first of the popular issues to rebound.
 War shares also hardened, Baldwin Locomotive, American Car and some of the less prominent equipments gaining 1 to almost points on re- ports that the governments cancella- ton program will be offset by further contracts for new railway supplies.
 OiIs swere more orderly in the sense that their advance was gradual.
 Southern Pacific and Union Pacific, St. Paul preferred, New York Gen. tral and Reading led the rails to ad- vances of 1 to 215 points, easing slightly at the end. Sales amounted to S25,00O shares.
 Liberty Bonds and internationals were steady, but railroad issues va ried slightly on lighter offerings. Total sales, par value, aggregated $S,- 25O,OO0 Old United States bonds were unchanged on call.

MIR. M'ADoo's DISCOVERIES. !"

Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, who be-
gan q VOYAGE of discovery when he was ap-
pointed director general of railroads, is still
discovering things that are not new NO sooner
did ne find himself in full charge OF transpor-
tation by rail than he recognized the need Tor
the elimination of wasteful competition, for
which the roads had asked while they were IN
the hands of their owners. Now he says an I'M
disputed thing in a solemn way In pointing out
the advantages of electricity motive power
In Washington dispatches he is quoted as say
ing that his observation of the vast resources
of water power has impressed him with the IDEA
of electrifying the railroads OF the United
States If the government We're to continue
the administration of the roads for long per-
iod, he would be in favor of resortlng to the use
of electricity His idea is important but 1t is
not original Electrification has been under
taken by several roads. Officers of these lines
could tell him much more about its advantages
than he seems to have learned by Observation
No doubt he will make other " discoveries be-
fore the roads are turned back to their owners,
but the best judges of their value and import
ance will be found among the practical railroad
executives who studied the electr1hcatlon prob
lem long before Mr.. McAdoo became director
general Mr.. McAdoo says that the saving OF
fuel made possible by using electricity general
ed by water power would warrant the expert
ment of Identification ''if it could be called an
experiment. But it can not be so called. What
he has in mind has been done, and neither gov,
eminent ownership nor government control Is
needed to make certain further development
along this line.

st. Louis Globe-Democrat: It Is not
in Missouri alone that the statewide
primary is growing In disrepute. The
recent Ohio vote was SO light and in
some instances the voting so unintell1-
gent as to make the system farc1al.
Accident of name, it seems, nominated
the republican candidate for ieuten-
ant governor. The winner is a Mr..
Brown who headed the rather formid-
able list Of men who relied on certain
services to the state to influence the
voters. But the result made them re-
spect the judgement of the witty Buck
eye who said that if Benedict Arnold
and George Washington had been OPP
posing each other for minor office
in statewide primary, Arnold's al
phabetical advantage would have
pulled him through. In some states the
order of names of candidates on the
ballot is changed in various sections,
so as to even up the luck" vote.
West Virginia is also complaining.
There were four contenders for the
nomination for the United
States senator, but only 40 per cent. of
the regular party voters took enough
interest to participate in the primary.
There was also lively democratic
contest, but it brought out only 80 per

FAILURE OF THE PRIMARY

cent. Of the democratic vote. The
showing was almost as bad in the Ken
lucky primaries.
The races for minor offices are de-
cided by luck or arrangements with
the strongest machines. 1t is impos-
sible for the average voter to familiar
ize himself with the record OF minor
candidate for state office. 1t is be-
coming more difficult to induce men
who are fully qualified to make the
race for such offices. 1t means year
or so of time and considerable expen-
diture of money, with the prospect
that some more spectacular campaign
will so completely absorb public atten-
ton that the candidates work will be
ignored and the voting on his candida
cy will be haphazard, There is more
intelligent action on the gubernatorial
and senatorial candidates., but as time
passes and the men who gained prom
inence before the primary system was
instituted disappear, it is becoming
harder to find anybody except rich
men to run for the higher offices.
Three states in a row, Illinois, Mis-
souri, and Kansas, have millionaire
governors Worthy as each may be, is
it desirable that we shall be driven
to select governors only from the
ranks Of wealth.

DELAYING SOLDIERS MAIL.

Inquiries are daily made by anxious parents
and friends of soldiers either at the front or on
their way thither for news explaining long de-
lay in getting mail from them Equally insist
emit are the complaints Of the soldiers which are
found in printed correspondence that they do
not get their home letters. Otto Kahn, the New
York City banker, on his recent return from the
front referred to the handling, or mishandling,
of our soldiers mail as one unfortunate fail
ure'' in our war management. There has been
complaint enough and reason enough for 1t to
have attracted the somewhat tardy attention OF
the postofice department. The women of the
nation have offered to work as volunteers to AID
in sorting the mail for transport. 1t is not
known just what the trouble is. Postmaster
General Burleson some time ago spoke OF trans
port facilities as the sole cause of undue delay,
but since then transport has immensely increas-
ed without any betterment of the mail service.
This is service the government owes the peo-
pie. It is the chief source of comfort to the
homes that have given the government It's sol
diers Something should be done to better this
service at once, and, if necessary, prod should
be found outside the postal department long
enough to reach the delinquent within 1t.

| New York Evening Post: Pending
discussion of the railway contracts"
with the government this week re-
vived many questions concerning the
return of the roads to private con-
troll after the war. Conservative
minds still view continued public
operation in peace times as an eyentu-
atty at least within possibility. Since,
therefore, government operation of
railways in military emergency was
first adopted in our civil war, 1t may
be of interest to revert to the Incl
dents of that period and note the
change in opinion in the intervening
years.
The principle upon which the con-
gressional statute authorized Presf-
dent Wilson to take control of the
roads was that when peace had re-
turned and the military emergency
was at an end the private owners
would again assume control. In the
civil war in the north the question
of continued government control
never arose, and in the south only an
eleventh-hour attempt was made at
actual operation by the confederacy.
In neither the north nor south dur
ing that conflict was there complete
control of all existing lines, such as
the present railroad administration
exercises The union government
seized and operated only such por-
lions as 1t needed for the transporta-
ton Of troops and military supplies.
The confederate government, working
under the combined difficulties of a
lack of industrial managers and the
Unborn objection of the people and
the states to an extension of the ac-
tivities and powers of the general
government, finally compelled by
| force of circumstances to interfere,
came only by degrees to any assump-
ton of control.
Nor was there the slightest hint on
either side that the lines would not
] be restored to the shareholders. In
fact, the experience before the civil
war, In which state ownership and
control had been proved such a
/ failure, had convinced even the most
| radical that only private ownership
and operation would bring the eff
! cheney and development the times
| demanded This was pointed out in
| later years at the worlds railway
| commercial congress by Joseph
| Nimmo, Jr., who declared that the ex-
/ pertinent of state ownership and
/ management of railroads was tried in
! six states, Massachusetts, Michigan,
! Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana and
Georgia, and ended in absolute
I failure.

strenuous objections made in the
south, both by townships and legis-
ilators to the confederacy's plans for
connecting the short lines there-de-

When Lincoln Took The Railroads

/ the guise of military necessity"-were
uncontradfcted witness to the belief
of that day that the only method of
railway advancement was through
the elimination of public possession
and the encouragement of private in
yes tment"
Evidence that the return of the
roads to the control of private owners
was taken as a matter OF course, is
seen in the lack of comment on their
return, after the confederacy's defeat
in 1865, and in the simplicity of ofi-
cial statements The military director
concluded his official report on each
government controlled line with the
announcement that it had been re-
turned to its owners" Within a year
the private managers were announc-
ing extensions and offering new
i securities, without any reference to
federal permission or consent.
Historians in general are silent on
the details of ''unscrambling' the
lines seized in that war. One goes
so far as to say that presumably the
government paid generously for the
transportation of troops" The act
of congress authorizing President Lin
coin to take possession of the rail-
roads and telegraphs, placing the Off
GERS and employees under military con-
troll, specifically provided that 1t
should not be in force amy longer
than is necessary for the suppression
of this rebellion"
The lines under control were those
around Washington, particularly south
of the capital, in the military depart
ments of the Cumberland, Ohio, Ten
nessee and Arkansas. From August
to December of the year 1855, Brig.
Gen. d. c. McCallum, military direc-
tor and superintendent OF railroads In
the United States, as recorded in his
report to congress, May 26, 1856, sur
rendered each road as the military
needs Of the district through which 1t
ran ceased The records of the roads
involved do not emphasize the condi-
ton in which their property was re-
turned, nor do they advert to any
dispute as. to destruction or transfer
OF business under the federal regime.
A suggestion of the attitude of the
day toward government control, save
as a war measure, can be found in
1.-THE minority report of the house COM
mittee on roads and canals concern
ing federal incorporation of railways
and the power of congress to regu-
late commerce, submitted to congress
June 9, 1868 The majority report
was to the effect that the committee
had not sufficient knowledge of the
facts to make and report bill on the
regulation and control of the rail
roads. The minority, however, was
more emphatic. THE rails" declared
that report, attained their present
proportions by the enterprise and in
telligent self-interest of the people.
If such vast interests were
committed to the control Of the fed
eral government, they could not, fail
to accelerate the growth of corrup-
ton in connection with federal legis-
lation, and hasten the development of
centralism, the greatest danger that
inow threatens our country"

THE RIGHT TO BE ON A TICKET.

Cedar Rapids Republican: A ques-
ton has been raised in Iowa on the
right to place names on the official
ballots in counties where primary NOM
nations were neglected. In Page coun-
ty, we are told, the democrats utterly
neglected the primary election. but
now they want to place names on the
ballot Cor the various county offices.
This. we understand, was the ques-
ton submitted to the attorney gener-
al. whose decision has been denounced.
That decision was that neglect is no
excuse for such an act. County conven-
lions and committees can make nom
