TINE Dominion of Canada APP

TINE Dominion of Canada ap-
i pears eager to grab of United
States markets as rapidly as pos
sible. The idea behind it undoubt-
edly is that they make for pros
perity and add TO the tax receipts
of the nation.
Word was received from Montreal
recently that a new silver exchange
had been granted a charter. The
Dominion apparently had no need
for such an exchange until the
United States nationaliSed silver,
which automatically shut of all
dealings in silver futures here.
Spectators in the metal contracts
turned to London, but they probably
will be glad to switch back to
Montreal when the facilities are
arranged.
With our government in the mar
ket for silver, futures in the metal
look like a sure-thing bet to Specu-
lators. Naturally they are going to
get in on it if they can. And OBJ
biously they will be glad TO pay a
small tax for the privilege.

TINE co-ordinator is said also to
= have other plans in mind Cor
the railroads. These probably have
to do with improving the efficiency
of the carriers, in no small meas
ure, no doubt, through the purchase
of more up-tO-date equipment. The
rolling stock of most companies is
very old and consequently very ex-
pensive to operate. With COMPETE
ton rendered less severe, the roads
should be able TO finance their
equipment requirements without
too much difficulty.
Most people in Wall Street feel
the railroads should also improve
on their management. They have
paid altogether too little attention
to the needs of shippers in the past,
it is argued. and have been inclined
to be satisfied with supplying in
feriOr service. They we're scouting
the idea Of truck competition when
they should have been laying plans
to combat it.

Was Head of American
Bar Group in 1925.

Chester I. Long, 73, former Senator
from Kansas and one-time president
of the American Bar Association,
died yesterday in Emergency Hos
pital.
He was a prominent political figure
during the Bryan free silver fight.
Mr.. Long had been suffering from
a kidney ailment for about three
months. His death occurred less than
a week after the death OF former
Senator Charles Thomas of Colorado,
widely known legislator and former
law associate of Mr.. Long
Since 1926. Mr.. Long, who lived at
Wardman Park Hotel. had been
member of the law firm of Long, st.

Born in PENNSYLVANIA.
Born on a farm in Perry County,
Pa. October II. 1860, Mr.. Long
moved with his parents, Abraham G.
and Mary Cauffman Long, to Davless
County. Mo. when he was 5 years
old. He worked on the farm and at
tended country schools up until the
time he was Is.
His parents being of moderate cir
cumstances, he decided to strike out
for himself and at 16 became a
country school teacher In 1879 he
entered a normal school at Paola,
Kans., and after his graduation
taught school for three years and
then began the practice of law at
Topeka in 1888.
He went to Medicine Lodge two
years later and hung his shingle
alongside those of 18 other young
barristers. He made so many friends
and gave himself so unstintedly to
the cause of the Republican party
that four years after he went to
Medicine Lodge he was nominated
and elected State Senator to fill a
vacancy. At the time he was the
youngest man in the body.
Fought "SOcklesS Jury"
His next political move was a series
of picturesque contests with ''Sockless
Jerry" Simpson for election to the
House They met in a series of pub
lie debates on the questions of free
silver and Populism and attracted
huge crowds and wide interest. In
all. Mr. Long served four years in the
House between 1892 and 1908 and one
term in the Senate beginning in 1908
While in Congress he made a study
of financial problems. served on the
Ways and Means Committee and
gained reputation as tariff expert
He said he enjoyed his work in the
House more than in the Senate. prob
ably, he explained, because 1 had
more time to study problems in the
House"
Following his retirement from poll
tics, Mr.. Long resumed his law prac-
tice at Medicine Lodge. and two years
later moved to Wichita. where he be-
came head of a large law firm.
Headed Bar in 1925.
He did not join the American Bar
Association until 1918. but after that
he did not miss meeting until his
election to the presidency in 1925. He
served as president of the Kansas Bar
Association, chairman of committee
. to revise the general statutes Of Kan
sas and also was a member of the
American Society of international
Law.
He was a thirty-second degree
Mason of the Scottish Rite.
He is survived by three daughters
Mrs Harry F. Gee, jr., of Atlanta
Mrs w E Stanley of Wichita and
Mrs. Roger S. Hurd of Chicago.
Tentative plans provide for the re-
moval of the body tonight to Wichita
where funeral services will be held.
