PRESIDENT DECIDES TO PRESS PROCEEDINGS Looking to Dissolution of Merger of Union and Southern Pacific Rail- roads. ‘Washington, Jan. 28.—The president has determinéd to press to a conclu- sion the pending suit against the Un- ion and Southern Pacific Railroad com- panies looking to a dissolution of mer- ger and today concluded to deny the application of Judge Lovett, Mr. Har- rh’;:an‘s successor, for dismissal of the suit. Soon after Judge Lovett, with a number of influential railroad people, appealed to the president to_quash the proceedings before Judge Vandeven- ter's court in Salt Bake City. Mr. Taft, following the course that had ‘been adopted in the case of the famous New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company when a stmilar ap- peal was made, referred the matter to the attorney general for examination and report. In the New England case it was found that owing to the action taken Dby the state of Massachusetts and the insignificance of the government's in- terests it would be best to abandon the prosecution of the railroad, and this was done But Attorney General Wickersham Teached a verv different conclusion in this Pacific railroad merger cese and foday he handed to President Taft a voluminous report, the conclusion of which justified the president in the announcement that there was a good case against the railroads since the de- cision in the Northern Securities di cision. Therefore the proceedings at Salt Lake City will be pressed. The Canal Zone. The bill for the ediminstration of the Panama Canal Zone, which has just passed the house of representa- tives, is not yet assured of acceptance in the semate. It pased one house in the last session, but failed in the other and the present canal commission is holding over, with only an imperfect authorization. The present measure vests the entire authority within the canal zone in the president, who is to have the canal completed, and is em- powerod to appoint a director general to have entire charge of the work. The only exception to his powers is in the provision for a court or courts of civil and criminal jurisdiction, with appeal to the supreme court. The president has authority to make all needful regulations which the director general is to execute, subject to this judicial review where individual rights are concerned. The canal zone is not in any sense a | political territory. It is simply the occupied in the operations on | the canal, and is necessarily under the direct command of those responsible for the work. In theory there is mot much difference between a commission of five persons and e single autocratic director, but practical experience ap- pears to have convinced congress that concentration will make for greater ef- ficiency.- —Philadelphia Ledger. The Low Grade Road. Henry H. Rogers, like so many other Americans who have attained great wealth, became. fascinated with the railroad industry. He did not buy u a broken down property and place * upon @ level of efficiency, nor did he strive to gather control of all the lines within his own office. He built a road of his own, a short road, but well nigh perfect in comstruction and eqpipment: A few days ago a train was run over this road, the Virginian railway, which broke a world’s record. A locomotive hauled 120 loaded coal cars from Vic- toria, Va, to Sewell's Point, near Nor- folk, in a’ little more than nine hours, the distance being 124.8 miles, This was a test of the low grades upon which Rogers had insisted and which were obtaimed only efter the surmount- ing of exceeding difficuities and the expenditures of money that, at one time, threatened to bankrupt the Stand- ard Oil man. The railroad is more than a monument to the promoter, however, for it has set an example. All the of- ficers of transportation companies are desirous of having lines of small grades, since it means so much in economy of operation, but they are not always willing to risk large sums upon reconstruction or to endanger _their standing with the stockholders. But in the competition of the roads the one which can run most cheaply forces oth- ers to follow, and the demonstration of one sucess makas scores of other suc- cesses follow.—Toledo Blade. The Retort Fin The garrulous old lady in the stern of the boat pestered the guide with her comments and questions ever since they had started. IHer meek littie hus- band, who was bunched toad-like in the bow, fishing in silence. The old lady seemingly exhausted every point in fish and animal life, wooderaft and per- sonal history when she suddenly es- pled one of these curious paths of oily, unbroken water frequently seen on small lakes which are ruffied by a light breeze. “Oh, guide, guide” she exclaimed, “what makes that funny streak in the water? No, there—right over there!” The guide was busy rebaiting the old gentleman’s hook and merely mum- bled “U-m-mm.” “Guide,” repeated the old lady in tones that were not to be denied, “look right over there where I'm pointing and tell me what makes that funny streak in_the water.” The guide looked up from his bait- “That?

Secretary Wilsoh is quoted as saying that “only a small fraction of the number of immigrants from abroad go to the farms of the country” and the reason he assigns is that “the facto- ries pay higher wages and offer short- er_hours.” ¥ We are not at present discussing whether protection is a wise policy, but whether it has been carried to such an extent in this country that that all our working people are going into mills. If the present situa- tion only a hiatus in the distribu- of production throughout the world, then food sup- plies for this country may be found elsewhere; and if found on cheap land in undeveloped countries, worked by poorly-paid labor, we =shall be the economic gainers. The concentration of distribution into the hands of grea: corporations, which ought to produce economies, seems in some cases to have increased the number and profiits of middlemen. If the entire subject is investigated, however, by an impar- tial commission, the question whether we have grown so successful in pro- ducing and consuming luxuries that we have forgotten about the produc- tion of necessities can hardly be nored.—Wall Street Journal No “Experiment” is Needed. Tlustrative of the growth of the ru- ral free delivery service Fourth As- sistant Postmaster General De Graw prints in his report a list of 95 routes which handled during the year more than 50,000 pleces of mail each. These are the best and busiest routes;yet only one took in so much as $1,000 on mail collected, and one collected as little as $40 in a suburban community where presumably commuters malil most of the letters in the city. This splendid service, in a word, is not earning the money it should earn. Mr. De Graw shows that the rural let- ter carrfer usually has but 25 pounds of maii to handle, while his light wag- on could easily carry ten times as much. Rural communties have tele- tion with the._city stores, ery might be made by mail the carriers could collect all their pay, instead of about one-fifth of it, as at present. Hence Mr. De Graw recom- mends that the “postmaster general “be authorized to arrange experimentally for a limited period” for a rural par- cels post. Such an experiment would be welcomed as an installment of jus- tice and common sense—New York World. Economy of Human Life The health records of London show a death rate for 1909 of only 13.8 per thousand. That of New York when corrected by the census this year will figure oue close to 1 From 1851 to 1860 the London death rate was 23.7. That of New York can- not be so accurately stated, but it was much higher. The fall in the death rate in London in 50 years, due to better sanitation and more acccurate knowl- edge of disease, means the saving in a single year of almost 70,000 lives. The saving in New York has been in like proportion. New York has extremes of cilmate to contend with which Lon- don never knows. In spite of later marriages and a falling birth rate, the natural Increase of population in both cities is consid- erably greater than it was 50 years ago. TIn 1860 each 100,000 people in London increased in one year to 100,- 900; now each 100,000 increases to 101 140, With the present estimated pop- ulation of both cities, the natural in- crease of London in one year is nearly 80,000 and of New York about 55,000, with immigration greatly aiding newer city in the race—New Yol ‘World. Our Ways and Their Ways. The good time that Mr. Georzge L. Fox of New Haven had in participat- ing in the campaign of his friend, John Burns, in England, its creditable re- sults and the seeming acceptability of his efforts have started considerable speculation as to what may bereafter be the result of an extension of this principle of campaign exchanges. We know how well it svorks in the minis- try and how the pastors as well as the flocks enjoy the occasional ex- change. And it is not without the sometime result that the home congre- gation felicitates itself upon the fact that It is not compelled to listen, as a steady thing, to the man from the ad- jacent town who occupies the pulpit for the day!
