ADJUSTING RATES And PROFITS.

The association Of railway execu-
t!ves IN defense Of the property rights
of railroad stockholders have issued an
appeal 70 the American public In oppo-
sition to that provision OF the senate
committees railroad bill which pro-
vides for profits over and above fair
return upon capital going back 70 the
government. They admit that the
Cummins bill has many admirable fea-
lures, but fear that the incentive for
good management Of railroads viii be
destroyed If the rewards are removed
by a coniscauon Of profits.
Upon it's face their plea sounds rea-
sonable. II the government is to fix
rates to be charged as we'll as wages
to be paid then it would seem that
stockholders we're entitled to all they
could make for themselves by their
own efficiency in selecting shrewd
managers but there Is another side to
the problem.
Why Is Boston g. Albany stock worth
1874 today and Boston & Maine only
"a? Why should C. &, N. w. stock be
worth more than c. G. w. or Id. G. St.
L. WIEN tho government fixes the
rates uniformly for all! It Is notori-
GUS that rate on one railroad Will not
pay profit, while the same rate upon
another road in a region of denser
population, shorter mileage and great
er volume Of business will pay an
enormous profit The government
must reserve the right to make diff
ferent rates for the NJ & st. L., in
Iowa and Dakota than for the New
York Central between Chicago and
New York City. or It must provide for
different franchise arrangement.
It is established as an equitable Gus

Williams Hurts The South.

Senator Williams was right in at
lacking Senator Borah's assertion that
there is connection between race riots
and the movement for the league of
nations. Such an idea is absurd, and
Senator Williams was right in prompt
~ answering the Idaho senator's argu-
ment He was right also in pointing
out the Inconsistency Of Senator Borah
and others IN pleading for law and or
der and at the same time opposing in
ternat!onal law.
However, ii must be admitted that
Senator Borah, even tho he may be a
south hater," had the better Of the
argument for once, so far as It con-
cerned the question Of the right and
wrong Of lynching. 1t is to be regretted
that Senator williams weakened and
spoiled his defense of the south by 60
ing too far. The best people, the think
citizens Of the south are with the
Mississippi senator when he defends
this section against the attacks OF
those from other sections WHO would
make 1t appear that the south alone Is
the land OF lynch!ng, but they cannot
endorse his advocacy of lynching. Ey-
cry time such leader as the Missis-
sipi senator publicly advocates lynch
ing he hurts the south more than II
is hurt by it's enemies.
The great majority of the people OF
the south stand for law an dorder.The
are courts Of justice, and no matter
what crimes is charged against man,
whether white or black. he has the con-
stitutional right to be tried In q court
Of justice. according TO law. When the
mob takes the law into its own hands
it tramples the dignity Of the courts
and the majesty Of the state under its
feet, No good can possibly come OF
such a course. but irreparable harm.
Senator Williams. when he stands in
the senate chamber and approves and
advocates lynching, is not voiciag the
sentiment of the southern people; he is
disappearing them. Therefore the
south would be better off DID he keep
his mouth closed when lynching Is the
subject under discussion. OF course
there are those in the south who will
endorse his position. but they are In

THE WRIGHT AND aArssus cAsss.

Judge Wright from the charges
made and by the report in the dis
patches that he refuses TO make any
statement, stands In an impossible po-
sition. II is a maxim of the law that
silence gives consent. There are few
Brutuses in these days. There We're
never many or Brutus would not have
left his name TO characterize an act
SO beyond the impulses Of fatherhood
as to be superhuman or inhuman as
tho mind may accept it, Election to a
judicial place and the power over life
and liberty OF offenders does not auto
maticnlly relieve men Of the common
attributes Of mankind or destroy the
defensive parental impulse. But this
can not be urged to retain the Judge on
the woolsack. He must resign or be
impeached. He made the debt lie
must pay It. The proverbial "sanctity
Of courts aud the judiciary" demand so
much.
But II this Judge should resign or be
impeached because he forgot the law
and his estate as its Interpreter and
executor when the criminal was his
own son. however depraved that son
might have been, what shall be said Of
the pardonlng power exercised in the

which would be no more than reason
able on the New York Central would
ruin the NJ, s st, L., whereas reason
able rate for the smaller road in Its
less fruitful field would make an i'm
measurably high profit for the New

the adjustment.
The plea OF the railroad executives
is sound in that some OF the reward for
efficiency mus: be saved in the form OF
profits or else we will lose the very
thing the senate bill seeks to preserve
in private raanagement OF a public
utility but the railroad managers fail
to suggest a better plan for the ad-
justment as between different regions.
They can't expect rates to be hxed
high enough for the weakest road to
prosper while the stronger wax fat,
nor can they expect rates to be gagged
by the cost Of transportation on the
stronger roads which would put weak
er roads out OF business. What better
plan is there than the return to the
government OF profits in excess Of a
reasonable return upon investment!

WHEN sIs ERIC TENDED BAR.

Sir Eric Geddes, who is the only man
who has within one twelve month neld
rank as admiral and as major general
in the British service was bartender
in America according to story pub
ltshed IN London paper. Sir Eric just
gytas and says nothing when asked
about il
II may be so. II so 1t only shows
how much better off a man IS when
divorced from the booze business No
body ever heard Of a bartender or a
saloon keeper being trusted with large
affairs. Why here in America the
lodges and Insurance companies would
have none Of them
There may be truth IN the Sir Eric
story. Here n Iowa we have instances
of our own where the bartender and
the saloonkeeper, forc!bly separated by
legal enactment from their bars and
their bottles have developed a fine
usefulness and good citizenship. Some
Of them are good business men with
good social and business standing.
Some Of them are holding excellent po-
sitions at better pay than the liquor
trade ever paid them And these are
glad and happy men with glad aad
happy families
Perhaps, If you were to ask them
for details Of their bartendtng past they
would grin systematically" like Sir
Eric and change the subject
It all goes to show that all OF Us
from Sir Eric Geddes and the barkeep-
er and proprietor to the humblest ctt-
zen are better off without the bartend-
ers or the business.
