FRIDAY, MARCH %, 1919.
GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP.

IT is stated that all interests, except
those which are absolutely committed
to the government ownership of rail
roads, are in substantial agreement on
the measures which they desire to
have incorporated in an act Of con-
ship 1t is to be hoped that con-
gress will take the matter up without
unnecessary delay after it is called to
special session. There is not much
doubt that congress viii have to talk
good deal about it. Government
ownership is not without some very
earnest advocates in congress, and no
matter how strong the arguments
against the proposition, they are not
to be convinced.
The idea that government is en-
dowed with creative power is fasci-
mating to some minds. 1t is one of the
greatest illusions. Germany was under
this illusion under the reign of the
kaiser There are some officials of the
present administration who have it bad
and are working hard for the govern
ment ownership of railroads. For in
stance, there is Postmaster Genera
| Burleson, who seems to be for the gov
eminent ownership of about everything
Now is it possible that Postmaste1
General Burleson should by the very
fact of his being a government oficia
become possessed of greater faculties
than were his when he was a private
citizen? Human beings make a govern
ment system. The system does no
make human beings. John Smith i.
not more competent to manage rail
road owned by the government thar
he is to manage it when owned by th'
| stockholders. A brakeman does not be
| come more efficient brakeman wher
| drawing his pay from the government
| than when he draws his pay from a pri
vate treasury. The government canno
create capacities. It must take then
as they are 1t must draw upon tn
total capacity as it exists. Privat
management can do the same, and &C
cording to experience is far more APP
\ to make the better selection.
h Much has been said about the abuse
i that crept in under private ownership
watered capital and all that sort o
thing, and it is not to be denied tina
big fortunes have been made in tina
way, especially during the earlier pc
Rod of railroad enterprises in thi
Il country. In that period, the govern
ment would have nothing to do wit

= would not have been built, unless me-
- with vision had had the courage t
take great risk. They dared great
ly and reaped greatly Some of then
undoubtedly reaped more than the
should. The government regulation
that is proposed will prevent that sor
of profteering from being repeated
But even with the abuse of privilege
by too greedy individuals and with a
the scandalous manipulations of tn
stock of the great railroads, the serv
ice which the privately owned rail
roads have rendered to the country
has been of incalculable benefit. TIL

rection of greater cheapness.

a mile, and this was maintained for
many years. There is good ground for
believing that the railroads stuck to
these low fares beyond the time when it
would have been prudent to have 7aised
them. But experience has shown that
the government control of railroads IS
pretty swift to raise fares. Whereas
private ownership asked only for two
cents mile for almost 80 years, the
government, as soon as it took hold,
asked three cents a mile and the pro-
portion is about the same on freight
rates. The public is making its own
comparisons as to the character of the
service, and as the public is telling it,
private ownership is far from getting
the worst of it in these comparisons.

When there was talk q few years ago
of starting local company to buy,

Take the situation in Brattleboro as
an example: People in general are in
clined to sympathize somewhat with the
yicissitudes of the local street railroad
and to be lenient with its shortcomings,
approaching that trolley lines every
where are finding it hard shedding in
these days of heavy costs and that the
one here hasn't any too much territory
to draw revenue from and never can
expect to do much more than break
even. On the other hand, almost every
body felt as if the road owners were
trying to put something over on the
Ipublic in asking the legislature to pass
one bill giving roads a chance to dis.
continue or suspend their service with
cut losing their charters, and another
allowing towns so voting to contribute
to the support of roads in such cireum-
stances; especially when the requests
were made in voice intended only for

Now that those preeocious twins, S.
70 and S. 80, seem to be safely laid

may not be out of place to consider
their parentage. It has been admitted
that they were sired by the street rail

these bills were handled shows pretty
