To Voters of the Seventh Compression.
al District.
I respectfully ask your careful read
ing Of the following:
Z. The Esch-Cummins act has the strong
endorsement of the Republican Nat
ional convention as great construc-
tive measure. The Democratic conven-
ton asked that it be given a fair
trial. President Wilson signeH itp
More Democratic Senators voted for
it than against it.
That this act guarantees 6 per cent
in eight billions of watered stock is
untrue. The basis is not capitalization
at all, but aggregate value determined
by physical valuation through the In
terstate Commerce Commission No
road is guaranteed per cent on it's
individual valuation. Some roads un-
der the act will earn only 1 or or 8
per cent and some may not earn even
their operating expenses The govern.
ment does not make good any differ
ence between per cent and what the
road earns. Bear in mind that any
road earning more than per cent
must divide the excess equally with
the government The government is
to use it's share to make loans to weak
roads or lease equipment to them at
per cent. The government can't
lose. 1t will make a gain. Il
Under the act speculation in rail-
road securities will be curbed for
the commission will hereafter regulate
their issuance. The act provides for
fair, disinterested board to settle la
Dor disputes with the public, (which
pays the bills,) represented thereon.
There is no compulsion other than the
force of public opinion. There is no
anti-strike clause. Given fair trial.
the act will fully justify itself This
act, in the opinion of those who have
studied it and know the problems Of
transportation is declared to be the
fairest and most constructive railroad
measure ever enacted by Congress.

AUTO THiEVING Is ON
INCREASE IN CITIES

According to records kept by the
police OF 19 cities, over $1,000 autos
were stolen in this country in the last
year, against $4,000 the year before.
About rs per cent of the cars were
recovered. st. Louis is the only place
where auto thievery is being made
less popular. The thieves there are
being treated to extreme penalties,
including Imprisonment up to 20 years
and this has discouraged them. Strict
er laws and rules are being adopted
all over the country and it is believed
that before long the gangs will be
rounded up and put out of business.

BETTER GOVERNMENT FOR THE

The Virgin Islands are at present gov
erned by order of the President through
officers of the navy. The arrangement
is but temporary one. AS to whether it
should be superseded by civil govern
ment provided by Congress is to be de-
termined by joint committee composed
of three Senators and three representa-
tives appointed under the authority of a
joint resolution just passed by the two
houses. The committee will also make a
thorough investigation Of the general
conditions existing in the islands, and
submit full report to Congress of their
observations That the trip of the COM
mittee to the islands will be in no sense
pleasure junket, but strictly for the
purpose of providing better govern
ment for the islands, is indicated by the
limitation in the resolution of its expen-
ditures to $1,000.

to propose and Bryan gets chance to
run for president.
