EDITORIAL.

Tomorrow the election Of a candidate
to fill the vacant seat for Frederiksted
country district vii be opened at l .. m.
Tnasmuch as the whole couucii is only as
r0ng or AS capable as the able minded
men constituting it, it is 10 be hoped that
the election will result in increasing the
efficiency Of Ne council by placing there
a man who will do justice TO his trust.
Personal feelings stOutd not enter into
the selection Of a member for the cOuu-
ell nor into objections against competent
men who may fail to please each lndlVld-
ual IN every way. As a matter OF fact
1T should be more a question Of whether
ability is present in the chosen candidate
and not whether he will use that ability
right as seems to be the present trend.
II is better to have d man who is CONVEX
SAINT with the problems affecting the
islands welfare than one who has to Be
told how to vote by others who ina
CINE they know all about it nj In re-
a " accomplish Iitla them eve. Ii is
our opinion that Mr.. w. II. Fleming
meets the need IN many senses at this
time, and it is to be hoped that a rational
electorate will elect him. AS far as family
connections 20 IN ne council Wllcn
are among the Slight objections rails
ed against 4 Mr.. Fleming, it appears
that it would b. .awfuIly difficult to
transact any business at all ii we scru-
led over and had to dive down into the
genealogy of everybody before we could
deal with someone. Many friends are
more clannish than relations and we know
that many men in the council at this
very time are blamed by the so called pro
gressive party for siding with family atti-
tudes. If strangers can act like relatives,
relatives may act like strangers, or may
act fairly at least. 1t is a bad practice to
make a suit for a man before he has been
measured; it is likely to prove a misfit.

the ballot box tomorrow.

tion Of representatives and com
mittees in each industrial plant,
proceeds to the formation Of joint
district councils and annual joint
conferences in q single industrial

sion to all corporations in the same

that It will be adopted by industrial

SUBMITS PLAN TO
MERGE R. RS OF
WEST INTO GROUPS
Two Billion Represented
in Plan for More
Efficiency

WASHINGTON, d. c.. March =
A comprehensive pan that vii
gather all the railroads of the west
INTO four systems was submitted
by Hale Holden, president Of the
Burlington lines, to the Interstate
Commerce Commission. s.
Under the scheme as worked out
by Mr.. Holden at the request OF
the commission, four great systems
woald radiate from Chicago and
would represent 10000 miles and
an investment of two billioDs.
The systems proposed were des-
ignated rs the Burlington, Union
Pacific, Santa Fe ard Southern Pa.
eifie. s.
Benefits Manifold
Mr.. Holden believes that greater
efficiency, better service and more
economy would be the result of
such a grouping and says that the
Burlington group is prepared to ef-
feet a consolidation without delay
if the commission sanctions such
action. is+-- es
As PLANNED now, the railroads
composing the various groups would
be as follows:
Burlington Group.
Railroads included in the Burling-
ton group in addition to the Hill
lines are the Chicago Great Western,
kaissas City Southern, Spokane,
Portland and Seattle. Fl Worth and
Denver City, Trinity and Brazos
Valley, Green Bay and Western,
Louisiana Railway and Navigation
Company, Colorado and Wyoming
and Colorado and Southern.
Santa Fe Group
In the Santa Fe system among
the roads included are. the Santa Fe,
Northwestern, the Omaha, the Iron
Range roads, 500 Line, Chicago and
Eastern Illinois, Western Pacific,
PARTS Of the Denver and Bio Grande,
Western Denver and Salt Lake,
New Orleans, Texas and Mexico and
kfnaller roads.
Espee Group
In the Southern Pacific system
Mr. Holden would place the South
ern Pacific, Central Pacific, the
Rock Island, Ell Paso and Southwes-
tern, Kansas City, Mexico and Ori-
ent, Missouri Pacific, NJ. X. l. T.,
parts Of the Denver and Rio Grande
Western, Denver and Salt Lake and
smaller roads.
ORION Pacific Group
The union Pacific system would
include the Union Pacific, c. II. &
st. P, Chicago and Alton, Frisco,
Texas Pacific, International Great
Northern, Chicago, Milwaukee and
Gary, Chicago, Terre Haate and
Southeastern, Minneapolis and st.
Louis and the Los Angeles and Salt
Lake.
Plan Ia Tentative
Mr.. Holden said that the tenta.
tive plan Of the commission must
be revised so as 70 provide FOR
either smaller or larger systems than
iIose proposed TO preserve, eompe-
tition md TO permit Of fature de-
yelopments. He said each western
system shopld have access 70 the
Pacific, Coast territory and to the
Gulf of Mexico, as weH as the
Great Lakes.

posed, MI; Holden declared, would
approach the Volume Of traffic now
