than a rail- road ¬ man he Is much a philosopher- On his recent trip over the country- he repeatedly submitted to Interviews and In every one of his statements there was much food for thought On his arrival In Chicago Wednes tiny he was asked about railroad reg- ulation He said This question of regulation will be worked out all right for everyone con- cerned ¬ What the newspapers ought- to do now la to stop talking about tho regulation of railroads and Insist that the people begin regulating the government They should Insist for example that the first and chief aim of a new administration should1 not be to wring more money out ot the people before It has learned how to expend it wisely- If the wasteful extravagance ot t governmental methods Bhould be ap- plied ¬ to any other business It would speedily bankrupt it The adminis- tration ¬ should be so regulated that It will learn to conserve Its revenue by cutting down oxpbnaes and by taking sufficiently aound precautions to pro vent tho terrible and utterly useless and uneconomic elicits that aro oc ¬ curring with altogether too much fre- quency ¬ The financial methods or the government should be the greatest concern of the people When questioned as to how 1le would effect a reduction In the ex- penses ¬ of tho government he replied- By applying the cost pertonper- mile rule BO to speak by which the railroads effect their economies mean that the railroad managements know what It costs them to transport- a ton of freight one mile and are gov- erned ¬ accordingly and are constantly blrlvlng to reduce that unit ot cost it this principle were to bo applied to the financial problems of the govern- ment ¬ you would see a marvelous change within a few years Do you think Mr Ilarrimon the present administration will be ladEn ¬ ed to make a change In this direc- tion Jdonot but < thliU administration a and administrations should be forced by the people to make economy Its fiSt aim or suffer political obliv ¬ ionThere Is much of trutfi and common- sense In the foregoing Our govern ¬ mental expenditure are In part based- on political pullfl A senatpr or con- gressman ¬ defllroa to mako a showing- In his state or district and ho obtains appropriations for everything tor which a fairly plausible use In the government service can bo found This loose method of disbursing tho peoples money results In the extravagances of which Mr Harriman speaks and should be overcome If possible Mon- ey ¬ extravagantly oxpended whetncr In private or public enterprises means misdirected energy and a loss to the peoplo as a whole Speaking of tariff revision Mr Har- riman sold If the government had revised tho tariff or given tho country a good cur- rency ¬ law or both we would not have had the Landls decision and we would not have had all this wasteful prose- cution of corporations nor all of this hostile legislation against raIlroads and the country would be going along awlmmlngly UI hove been quoted as criticising the government our former pros Ident for having prosecuted me ana the Interests which I represent i have never spoken bitterly regarding either and I have no criticism to make Tho prosecutions were all right lor thor Is nothing about the railroads which I represont that 1 desire to conceal I am in favor of government super ¬ vision and regulation but not Just be ¬ cause it has come 1 am on record- In Washington as being In favor ot this and I told Mr Roosevelt so early- In his campaign But mind you 1 told him I was In favor of regulation- If combined with protection but we have been getting regulation without protection and that IB bad for tho rail- roads ¬ and bad for tho people for alter all It Is tho people who have to pay for the mistakes of the government But here Is a peculiar step down from Mr Harrimans clear reasoning He was asked If ho would have regu- lation ¬ by government extend to the Issuance of railroad securities and ho answered jBy no moans for It Is none of the peoples business to put It bluntly how much securities and in what form they are Issuedso long as the railroad Is run In the Interest of the People and so long as It gives the greatest possible unit of service I know what you had In mind when you aslced that question it was that little Alton affair about which so much fuss was made and what did the fuss amount to They said too Alton was grossly overcap- italized ¬ And yet the Alton Is today the best railroad pnopcjrty jn Illi- nois ¬ It has been made 250 por cent hotter for twothirds of Its original cost arid I might add that It Is not bankrupt oven now It Is still solv- ent ¬ all the states attorney generals- and all of Iho Inebriated tate senat- ors ¬ notwithstanding You may quote- me In this respect even to the in- ebriated state senators I would begin with the Sherman antitrust act which Is and always will bo a menace to corporate pros- perity ¬ You con plainly see that tho idolsof the people have changed In many respects They are coming to take a different view of tho probloms which are involved In tho maintenance arid operation of our railroads ana the laws should bo changed to cor ¬ respond with these changed views After all it is tho people who own our railroads What he says of the Alton Is no doubt true but why the government should not regulate the Issuing of se- curities ¬ by railroads Is not mode evi- dent ¬ One of the practices of tho past which has done much to place the railroads In an unfavorable light- Is the Issuing of watered stocks and then requiring the people to pay tribute on that watered stock By watered stock we rotor to issues ot stock the value of which does not enter Into the Improvements of a road but go to enrich a few clever manipulators Mr Harriman qualities his state- ment ¬ by saying So long as the rail- road ¬ la ran In the Interest of the peo- ple ¬ and so long as It gives the great eat possible efficiency of service That Is unanswerable But how often do those securities fall to serve tho good of the public how often are they made to enrich tho pockets of the crafty If all heads of railroads were as earnestly devoted as Mr Harrtman to making bettor railroads there would bo less reason for complaint Mr Harriman is distinctly a railroad up builder His mind Is constructive But there are others who have failed to resist the temptation to appropri- ate ¬ to themselves the millions to be had by Juggling securities sql GOULD SHOULD ABANDON WESTERN PACIFIC The Western Pacific rail roadacross- the bottom lands bordering on Groat Salt Lake Is In danger of being sub ¬ merged and the officials of that road are now considering thd feasibility or rebuilding tho entire line from a point Just outside Salt Lake City to tho western rim of the water line of the Inland sea For miles the Western Pacific rails are laid on roHd plank Ing This was found to bo necessary at the time the road was building through tho bottomless waste former ¬ ly a part of the lake bod Since then the encroaching waters of the lake bave made ajuarebor all thati section and there Is danger of rails and planks disappearing In the mixture ot water and earth which with but a crurt of thin earth as sustaining bridge above it Is a more uncertain element to deal with than were It part of the lake Itself The building of the Western Paclllc around the south end of the lake has been viewed as a mistake by some of the foremost engineers who have studied the route Years ago the oouthofthclake route was condemn- ed ¬ I by Southern Pacific engineers wno at that time pointed out the nature of the old lake bottom in that region and the uncertainty of securing a tirm foundation on which to build a road ¬ bedWith tho Western Paclllc consider- ing ¬ the adrlsablllty of rebuilding in fact facing that problem the time has arrived for the Gould people to cor- rect ¬ whatever mistakes have been made and by entering into an agree- ment ¬ with Harriman to cross the lake over the OgdenLucln cutoIT over- come their difficulties without further expensive and problematical outlay Harriman and Gould aro now friends When the Western Pacific was planned they were bitterly an- tagonistic ¬ and Gould sought to bring Harriman to a sense of the power or the Gould forces by constructing a parallel line of road through Utah and Nevada to California That quarrel- was ended when Harriman during the panic wont to tho assistance of the George Gould roads and made possible- the completion of the Western Pa- cific ¬ and the holding intact of the Gould system of railroads Geo Gould today has a hanco to In a degree reciprocate by going to Harriman with a proposal that the Western Pacific around tho south end of tho lake be abandoned tho two Interests to Join In doubletracking the OgdonLuci- ncutoffrone of Harrimans greatest railroad achievements tralllc or the Rio Grande to go via the cutoff to Wells Nevada from which point tho Western Pacific might be operated as a double track to Winnemucca Ne ¬ vada S O BASEBALL Wadsworth Haynes writing of the great American game of baseball says Baseball is being played all around the world and its vogue tar from be- ing ¬ less Is growing making new con ¬ verts among tho heathens a heathen- Is a man who has never played base- ball over a year rwo years ago the writer was In Buenos Ayres Argentina during the Christmas holidays There Is a regu¬ lar ball team composed of American residents of the Argentina capital and they were visited for a series ot clscogames by a team from San Paulo Brazil Mighty good games they were too George A Moore writing from Luzon some time ago said When I went to Masbete the game was not known to the Filipinos but after I had explained its possibilities they took to It with great enthusiasm Before long wo had many students who wore able to play as well as the averago American youths Soon they began to organize teams In the various towns In tho provinces and now we have a regular baseball season In Masbeto As for fans the Filipinos have the Americans backed off the boards The spectacular side of baseball around the world Is pretty well known- by this time butt there Is another side that would touch the heart of any ar- dent ¬ American Take for Instance- the little group of mon who represent a big oil company up In tho wilderness- or upper Burham There are just enough of them to form two mines and when they have an afternoon off or when their days work Is over they get together and batter up in tho good old way They are far from home practically exiles but they are In tho midst of a smashing game under a tropical sun with the natives staring at the audacious enorgy of the white men they probably feel themselves much nearer home than at any other time I IMPORTATION OF MORPHIA PRO- HIBITED The American minister at Poking transmits under date of January 5 1909 a copy of the regulations Issued by the Chinese Imperial maritime cuotoms governing

eHARRIMANS VIEWS ON

man he Is much a philosopher-On his recent trip over the country-he repeatedly submitted to Interviewsand In every one of his statementsthere was much food for thought

On his arrival In Chicago Wednestiny he was asked about railroad reg-ulation He said

This question of regulation will beworked out all right for everyone con-

What the newspapers ought-to do now la to stop talking abouttho regulation of railroads and Insistthat the people begin regulating thegovernment They should Insist forexample that the first and chief aimof a new administration should1 not beto wring more money out ot the peoplebefore It has learned how to expend itwisely-

The financial methods or thegovernment should be the greatestconcern of the people

When questioned as to how 1lewould effect a reduction In the ex-penses

of tho government he replied-By applying the cost pertonper-

accordingly and are constantlyblrlvlng to reduce that unit ot cost itthis principle were to bo applied tothe financial problems of the govern-ment

Do you think Mr Ilarrimon thepresent administration will be ladEn ¬

ed to make a change In this direc-tion

Jdonot but <thliU administration

a

and administrations should be

forced by the people to make economy

Its fiSt aim or suffer political obliv ¬

ionThere Is much of trutfi and common-

sense In the foregoing Our govern ¬

mental expenditure are In part based-

on political pullfl A senatpr or con-

gressman¬

defllroa to mako a showing-

In his state or district and ho obtainsappropriations for everything torwhich a fairly plausible use In thegovernment service can bo found Thisloose method of disbursing tho peoplesmoney results In the extravagancesof which Mr Harriman speaks andshould be overcome If possible Mon-

ey¬

extravagantly oxpended whetncrIn private or public enterprises meansmisdirected energy and a loss to thepeoplo as a whole

Speaking of tariff revision Mr Har-

riman soldIf the government had revised tho

tariff or given tho country a good cur-

rency¬

law or both we would not havehad the Landls decision and we wouldnot have had all this wasteful prose-

cution of corporations nor all of thishostile legislation against raIlroadsand the country would be going alongawlmmlngly

UI hove been quoted as criticisingthe government our former prosIdent for having prosecuted me anathe Interests which I represent ihave never spoken bitterly regardingeither and I have no criticism to makeTho prosecutions were all right lorthor Is nothing about the railroadswhich I represont that 1 desire toconceal

I am in favor of government super ¬

vision and regulation but not Just be ¬

cause it has come 1 am on record-In Washington as being In favor otthis and I told Mr Roosevelt so early-In his campaign But mind you 1

told him I was In favor of regulation-If combined with protection but wehave been getting regulation withoutprotection and that IB bad for tho rail-

roads¬

and bad for tho people for alterall It Is tho people who have to payfor the mistakes of the government

But here Is a peculiar step downfrom Mr Harrimans clear reasoningHe was asked If ho would have regu-

lation¬

by government extend to theIssuance of railroad securities and hoanswered

jBy no moans for It Is none of thepeoples business to put It bluntly howmuch securities and in what form theyare Issuedso long as the railroad Isrun In the Interest of the People and solong as It gives the greatest possibleunit of service

I know what you had In mindwhen you aslced that question itwas that little Alton affair aboutwhich so much fuss was made andwhat did the fuss amount to Theysaid too Alton was grossly overcap-italized

¬

And yet the Alton Is todaythe best railroad pnopcjrty jn Illi-

nois¬

It has been made 250 por centhotter for twothirds of Its originalcost arid I might add that It Is notbankrupt oven now It Is still solv-ent

¬

all the states attorney generals-and all of Iho Inebriated tate senat-ors

¬

notwithstanding You may quote-me In this respect even to the in-

ebriated state senatorsI would begin with the Sherman

antitrust act which Is and alwayswill bo a menace to corporate pros-perity

¬

You con plainly see that thoidolsof the people have changed Inmany respects They are coming totake a different view of tho problomswhich are involved In tho maintenancearid operation of our railroads anathe laws should bo changed to cor¬

respond with these changed viewsAfter all it is tho people who own

our railroadsWhat he says of the Alton Is no

doubt true but why the governmentshould not regulate the Issuing of se-

curities¬

by railroads Is not mode evi-

dent¬

One of the practices of thopast which has done much to placethe railroads In an unfavorable light-Is the Issuing of watered stocks andthen requiring the people to paytribute on that watered stock Bywatered stock we rotor to issues otstock the value of which does notenter Into the Improvements of aroad but go to enrich a few clevermanipulators

Mr Harriman qualities his state-ment

¬

by saying So long as the rail-road

¬

la ran In the Interest of the peo-ple

¬

and so long as It gives the greateat possible efficiency of service

That Is unanswerable But howoften do those securities fall to servetho good of the public how often arethey made to enrich tho pockets of thecrafty

If all heads of railroads were asearnestly devoted as Mr Harrtman tomaking bettor railroads there wouldbo less reason for complaint MrHarriman is distinctly a railroad upbuilder His mind Is constructiveBut there are others who have failedto resist the temptation to appropri-ate

¬

to themselves the millions to behad by Juggling securities
