nddrr&scd the following loiter to the Inter
state Commerce commission. Hn says :
It coming to my notice , through the dully
press , that yet ; were soliciting suggestions
touching Iho fifth Bcollon of thu net to
rcgulalo commerce , prompts the following
comment nnd suggestion * , respectfully sub-
mittcil. The paragraph stated that a call
wasmado for opinions "from prominent rail
way men" and "mcrctintllo Interests. " The
opinion of u staff of generals in a campaign
Is essential , but the disposition and pcrsonc !
of an unity , whether made up of freeman

nnd nctliui tain 11 by your tis Iho writer
l > cllcves. one of the most Important of
today's natlmial departments. Is my apology
to , vo for the tender of this line of thought.
.Starlinir from Iho promises that nnj ami
every citizen or locality of our cominnn-
wealth Is entitled to all the right's , oppnrtiv
iilltes In labor icstilts. and business conimr.ni-
cation enjoyed .by any other In agencies ore-
ntcd by rights of eminent domain ; tliat the
laborer Is worthy of his hire ; that ho who
demands equity must give equli\ ; that so
long an rail and water transit Is operated by
corporations having vested Interests they
nro entitled lo an Income therefrom equaling
thai on governmental securities , based imon
the nmountacutally Invested therein : llmt
criult.'iblo business intcresls in Icaitliiiato
transit will survive speculative Interests
nnd aid In smelting the dros-'s of specula
tion , watered stock , jobbing and com
petitive elements from Us make-up ; that
condemnation of wrong done direct or Indi
rect payers of freight by agencies of transit
needs no apolopy , oven although the eon-
tlcmncr bo oliseuru nnd the condemned noted
nnd powerful , no attempt in this is made to
Idss the blarney stone nor excuse opinion
contraryto that hold by any 0110 else.
Believing that citations to sworn state
ments of railway managers , after having
passed your inspection and the compilations
of your statisticians , are worthy the notice
nnd acceptance of the people and of railway
committees of congress , notwithstanding the
undoubted disreputable defiance shown to
law and equity by such railway managers ,
authors of wild sworn statements. It is desired -
sired to draw particular attention to findings
of fact on transportation from .grouped iind
iiationali/cdor JKxdcdistandpoints. Kcalbhig
that modern transit js of transit of earlier
nges ( since eivili/.ed trade lirst brought
transit into being ) what the electric light is
to the pine Icnut'nnd tallow dip ofllio past ,
nnd that it has been evolved to its piesent
wonderful results within the past sixty
years , would explain growth of applied me
chanics In tranMt beyond lhat of ideas in
commercial freedom. ICquilibrimn now do- ,
nmnds analyzalionof all elements at interest
In transit by the best minds wo have , for the
public on ono hand and Hon. Aldacc V
Walker and managers of transit on the
other.
Now referring to tlio Third Annual Heport
on statistics of railways , page 1' ! , in tabu
lated groups wo Unit the average gross rev
enue per ton per inllo for the whole United
States to have been nlnu and forty-one hun-
drcdllis mills ( .0-11) ) . On page fill , same re
port , tlio average haul per ton is shown to
bo one hundred nineteen and seventy-
two hundreiUhs miles ( ll'J.V.1) ) . Multi
ply gross average revenue by average
haul and wo eliminate distance and
classification. This shows that if ono dollar
nnd thirteen cents ( SI.lit ) jier ton , or live and
slxty-flvo hundrcdlhs Veals ( .OSKi ) per hun
dred weight , had been exacted from all ship
pers , the samoas-ecuts per ounce is exacted
from senders of mail , the roads would have
obtained the same gross income they did and
every citizen , commodity and locality would
have been treated alike. It would mean a
"protective tnrlfl" to the "small man" with
no inducement to "cut rates" to the "big
man , " with free trade to all. and a recip
rocity clause between legitimatetrans.lt and
its patrons , the consuming , public , building
up industry and business enterprise , limited
only by man's capacity lo work. It will
make practical the claims for just recom
pense for labor , by those who are bravo
enough lo llghl for equal rights , and Just
enough lo allow all others like consideration.
The writer disclaims any attempt of dis
courtesy or Impassioned refcrcnto in this lo
any such manageis of transit as arc really
desirous of protecting themselves from im
positions by surrendering opportunities to
impose upon others.
Noting the "grouping" of this country into
ten divisions reminds one of the conceding of
rights to potty dukedoms by a monarchy , and
denotes a progress in freedom of commer
cial intercom so closely .analagotis to political
evolution. Cause for making llieso divisions
Is sot forth to your body as marking various
physical influences in operative service , but
which , to ono no better posted than is the
writer , seems to have been drawn largely
from such "physical" ( ? ) forces as were ex
ercised by the Into lamented Mr. Juy Gould
nnd present promoters of traillc agencies In
after dinner speeches , "long haul" competi
tion and the liko.
But accepting Iho divisions as made , and
the facts as reported to your honorable- com
mission , using the postal basis or general
gross average of reasoning , based on facts
shown on pages 12 and r > : ! , wo find that the
gross revenue from each Ion transported Us

II , 80 cents per ton , or 4 cents per hun

from freight service , Does any ono who payo
u larger rate of freight In that territory on
his goods , think ho can stop up to the "Stock
exchange. . " or three card iiionto "freight

If the roads of the nation had been
"pooled" on freight service and had mtidu
n C-ccnt postal rate , their gross Income would
have exceeded thu amount gotten bysf-ll- ,
600,000 , had the same amount as was ox-
landed in boliclling freight und rebates been
thrown away. If postal rates ruled , the
shipper would buy his freight stamp as ho
now buys tils postal card ; ihcusur seeking
the means instead of the reverse. ( ! oed
railroad authoiliy has staled that freight
und passenger wars cost the roads f' uo- ,
000,000 a .year.
To Illustrate , discriminations : In group

are 10 cents per UK ) pounds , or Sl.bl ) per ton ,
as against nn average gross charge on all

eav that the farmer and slockraUer are dis
criminated ngalust to the tune of 400 per

raise the uverago.
lu group Vll , which comprises Nebraska ,
Wyoming , and that part of North and South
Dakota lying south nnd west of the Missouri
rlyer , and Colorada lying north of a line
drawn east and west just north of Denver ,
the average gross charge is . ' .57 , or just
'double the average gross charge for like ser

Had hlnps possi sued the wisdom and Jus
tice of the < ombined people a republic \\onld
never have existed. King John nnulo Unlit

and to your honorable body and congiess wo

faster than lire railway malingers , itnd moro
schooling Is not amiss lo either , Hliud , bit
ter and cunning opposition , step by step , to
efforts of cnual treatment to the publlo
Is mr.do against any control of transit ,
nnd a Bull Kim la close at hand for the
people. A Vlcksburg and "March to the
Sen" will follow. The railway managers and
Ihclr attorneys nro the smartest , most con
genial men wo have ; but they are not wise
nor Just , and to them the temple of justice
Is a "Stock exchange" with gambling table
und option booth lln allar. Their aim Is
gralillcaliou of personal power , instead of
the development of an agency as necessary
lo present commercial llfo as Is air and
waterIhewrivltiiigofa road Is tih legitimate
witli them as building one out of the subsi
dies .of the public , and national aid means
personal stealings through corporate cats-
paw , as In the 1'jidllo railways , nnd tin will
result again it national guarnnly is
made iho Nicaragua Canal com
pany. The Ani'M-lcan puhlii ; Is fair
and houc < t , and scaled in the public
mind anil heart is the standard balance and
yard mi-abure , as carefully' ns Is sealed
within llio Ilouao of Commons the standard
measures of value for Kngliind. It Is the
autocratic eltt/cn. protected with debauched
legislation , who cries "stop thief1 ! while
robbing the public and crippling rrnnmrtrclal
progress as did kings retard political free
dom. They who sec the surface only , never
below It , notice the court decisions , as In the
Councilman case , and It lowers their respect
for law and tends to criminal acts of com
mission. That a man can avoid consequences
of crliuo by confession that his oath would
incrim'iimle , and lie thereby escape and
make nugatory plain the intent of law ,
is beyond the average man's com
prehension of legal lore ; but that docs not
increase the public respect for , nor is con
fidence in the railway manager's veracity
not iceable. The railway manager's promises
and performances nro made good after per
formed bul never beforo. This is ono rule ,
to which , when conllicling interests Inter
vene , there is no exception-and their fer
tility in evasion is unrivaled. This data can
only bo accounted for on the theory that
"tho king can do no wrong. " This paragraph
is based on present fact , Blaekstono ,
Chilly and gray-whiskered precedent. Par
ticular reference is made to the board of di
rectors and Us presiding genius that con
trols majorities in stocks. lymphatic dis
claimer is made to any reference lo the hon
est , capable and hard-working employes in
all or nny department of operative transit.
These facts are recounted , not because it is
thought you are not cognizant of them , but
because .you should know they are becoming
generally known , and public opinion , that
supreme court and sovereign power , beyond
which thorn is no appeal , is being shaped on
lines of ii Doelaralkm of Independence in
transit.
ll is an open secret that secret rates exist
that transit agencies in roiling stock lines
and waterways permit discriminations that
law cannot prevent any more than prohibi
tory laws can prevent drinking or stealing
and that if permission to pool is given under
ton perniilo rates , it will mean corporate
combination to exact with discriminating
facilities greater thTiii now held.
In Nebraska , public ofllcial life , executive
and legislative , state and county , is debased
by passes. This insiduous liberality ( ? ) in
transit permeates the courts , the secret
society leaders , the Christian assembly
leaders , and every social and political divi
sion likely to shape selection of public ofll-
cials.
cials.With
With distance eliminated and a. general
average charge on transit , It would bo un-
nrolilable to railways to transport even a pure
(0 ( citizen without payment. Grant power
lo regulate ( ? ) agencies based on false prin
ciples , under ton perniilo rates , even as teas
as honorable gentlemen as yourselves , in
volving principles of possible exactions as
now held , and "time and tide" of changes
ill youi , commission will shape Its personal
from a Judge Coolcy to a Judge Tanev , and
will make Iho nation cry to God fora Kcd
sea to swallow up the hatchery of railroad
bacteria.
Under as rigid control as railways , should
lie placed lake and river transit , sleeping
anil dining car service , terminal and depot
facilities bridge companies , and warehouse
and mining agencies a part of transit. So-
. alled "fast freight" or private rolling stock
lines , those agencies of wheel-in-wlicel
schemes , whereby the malingers and their
iissociate Interests rob Doth the minority
railway stockholdcis and the public , should
bo made to show their hands above the
table with sleeves rolled up. Express com-
[ tallies should bo subjected to control
as railways are. It is a remarkable
circumstances that the government is called
upon lo pay railways upwards of fci.OOO.OOO
moro for transporting mail tonnage than is
paid for expiess tonnage to railways by ex
press companies under exactly the same con
ditions and service , while express tonnage
exceeds that of mail tonnage as twenty to
ono. ( See page C/J in Third Annual Statistical
Heport in lame of earnings and income. ) The
failure of any agency of transit or any of iis
departments to report as demanded by your
regulations , in detail , within reasonable
time , should subject such agency to forfeit-
tire of Us charter to the nation , subject its
property to ( oudeinimtion and appraisement
as in rights of eminent domain and
at public auction. This would put the In
corrigible little fish inside of tliu big llsh ,
easier to bo kept under surveillance , while
allowing the law-abiding minnow to seek
food with safety In Us native water. And
If Iho big llsh don't play fair , wo will hold a
national banquet , und serve It up to an after
dinner speech. Theme : ' 'The saddest
words of longue or pen. " "Wo might have
been raiting the clover of milk and honey
from the public ; but wo handle Ihe shovel of
regret , and two cents docs for UK ) pounds of
freight , wlmt two cents did for a letter. "
It Is ton per mile rates and competition
that means discriminations that force brain ,
skill and muscle lo trade and manufacturing
centers , that when corralled may the easier
bo forced lo pay homage to the court of com
bination , where crowded surroundings help
vice and consequent misery to feed on labor's
physical and moral liber. Would it have
teen desirable to bring about moral peace In
heaven by allowing Lucifer to usurp God's
prerogative , which prerogative meant
peace and justice tu allt If it
would , then listen to the siren
song of patd allorncys , after-dinner
speeches , and Iho lobbyists for railways , but
In Iho namu of consistency abolish all scni-
blauco of restraint , that their , sensalivo
souls may not misjudge ur nor bo worried
with consciousness of guilt in secret rate or
rebate making. The uno central poinl of
corporallvo railway management Is to wring
a no limit contingent amount from publlo
necessity In transit , and ton per mlle rates
from that standpoint makes It selllsh busi
ness sense to call lo Us aid any agency , mi-
gcllu ur dl.iholical , as will bring , at thu
manager's sweet will , the speediest results ,
and both agencies are of tenllmcs blended.
.So long as ton per mile rates aru made and
competition exists , so long will stock-water-
Ing and jobbing exist , which means gambling
in birthrights. Transit should bu permitted
to pool , and competition as lo rates should
no wore enter Into ihelr calculations than
should lighting and Jealousy exist between
members of ono family. Hut so long as postal
freight service is not nnulo us no screw
known to ingenuity of the people should r.o
turned back on thesa agencies one thread ,
and every Impulse uf pairlotism and sense of
Justice should bu Invoked until , as must
eventually mine , ludcpcmlcnco in commer
cial intercourse becomes peer to our present
political independence.
The rail way manngeis ask lhat they bo
allowed tu pool as a protection lo themselves
from themselves , but not for purposes of
granting equalities In opportunities to all pa
trons and localities. 1'ostal rates will pro
tect them and nr.iku the contingencies of

"America is good enough for mo , "
said a young woman who re
cently returned from Europe. "Wo
slopped in Paris for a fortnight's shop
ping and I really found nothing ut all
that 1 cared to buy. Everything that

"So I just gave up the idea of clothes

"Meanwhile I looked at my friend's

Frau Helene Lange , according to the
Berlin papers , has como forward willi a
Bomowhut startling proposal. Tills is
nothing moro nor loss than the demand
for the ono year's eorvloo for girls. She
suggests that juat as Gorman youths are
compelled to spend at least one year in
barracks , so their sisters should bo com
pelled to spend a year in kindergarten ,
creches , people's kitchens , hospitals ,
factory uitls or servants homos , to
which they should give their services.
Of course these institutions must bo
greatly multiplied to glvo work to all.
As youths may uhooso tholr garribon
and troop , so the girls might bo allowed
to choose their branch of service- . Cer
tificates could bo granted at the end of
the year flu to work and conduct , Those
who desire to stay on , and show the
necessary talent , could bo promoted and
allowed to direct the ono-voar recrulta.
Fruu La n u'o considers that this year of
service would form nnd strengthen tliu
character of girls as no family , school or
social life could. She deplores groutly
the way in which Gorman girls of the
bettor classes spend tlitlr time in "en
ergetic or lazy doing nothing. "
