1HE PRESIDENTS POSITION.
The country ought by this time to be
entirely familiar with the position of
President Iloosevelt in regard to regula
tion of railroad rates. He made this very
lear.in his last nnnunl message to con
gress and he has since repeated in effect
what he then said.
In an address at the dinner ln honor of
the 'delegates to the International Hall
way congress Secretary Morton took oc
casion o state the attitude of the presi
dent on the railroad question. He said
that Mr. Roosevelt wants nothing but
what is right and "he is as anxious that
no Injustice shall be done to the railroads
s he is that Justice shall be done to the
public." The secretary said that through
one device or another there still remain
here and there preferential rates which
favor certain large shippers and which
bear down unjustly on others. This Is the
condition of affairs which the president
Is doing his best to remove. "The private
sidetrack arrangements by which unfair
inside rates have been enjoyed by some
of the big Industries of the country, the
earning of more than a fair return on
private car investments, the payment of
commissions of various sorts or rebates
or preferential rates in any form ought
to be entirely discontinued," declared Mr.
Morton. He said he considered it a great
piece of good fortune for every man,
woman and child in this country that
ln the settlement of this matter the
rights of property as well as the rights
of the people are not to be overlooked
by the president "All he wants ln rail
road legislation Is that which is fair and
that which will endure."
Every railroad manager in the country
knows that Mr. Roosevelt is not seeking
anything the effect of which would be
injurious to the property or legitimate
interests of the railroads. He wants to
remove 'abuses which it is admitted by
the railroad managers themselves exist
and .which they profess to desire shall
be removed. In the face of this profes
slon, however, they are bending all their
efforts and exerting all their Influence
to defeat the leglslatloa which the presi
dent regards as absolutely necessary to
the correction of abuses. In doing this
they are strengthening and Intensifying
public sentiment against themselves.
What they should do is to support the
really conservative position of the pres
ident. Instead of promoting, as their atti
tude does, a demand for regulative meas

hlf. Roosevelt has recommended.

MORE ABOUT THE CARNEGIE
FOUNDATION.
Mr. Carnegie has most wisely excluded
from the beneficiaries of his gift all stat
and sectarian Institutions. By thus creat
ing a favored class among the colleges
nd universities he establishes a healthy
competition. If the pension Is really an
economic gain to the 'professor, pension-
giving institutions will be able to hold out
superior Inducements to the best men. This
"puts It up" to state and sectarian Insti
tutions to make as good or a better offer
either by a pension system or by raising
salaries New York Independent.
This is the only attempt we have so
far seen to Justify the discrimination
which has been imposed as one of the
conditions of the Carnegie foundation to
provide pensions for superannuated pro
fessors, and against which The Bee has
entered respectful protest on behalf of
the people of the western states who
have undertaken to supply higher educa
tion to their youth through their state
universities without waiting for the as
sistnnce of any private, philanthropist.
Thnt ere is a decided consensus of
opinion among those Interested ln the
welfare of the state university that this
discrimination is not only unwise, but
positively mischievous, is evidenced by
the letters which The Bee has received
endorsing its position, and especially its
suggestion that some move be lnaug
urated to prevail upon Mr. Carnegie to
reconsider this proscription and place
state universities on the same level with
the privately endowed colleges and uni
versltlca entitled . to participate ln the
benefits of his newly Instituted pension
fund. Without mentioning the names,
because the letters are not written for
publication, the president of one of the
leading state agricultural colleges in the
west may be quoted as follows:
It would seem to me, In all Justice, that
th discrimination should be removed.- It
Is very doubtful whether stat Institutions
can for various reasons maintain higher
standards of salaries than privately en
dowed Institution. As a matter of fact,
auch Institutions have not paid as high
salaries as a high grade of Institutions
under private endowment. Th Jealous
watchfulness of legislatures, not often ln
sympathy with scientific and educational
work of a higher order, would probably
make It Inexpedient for state Institution
to Place their salaries much above th
general average of salaries paid for aim
liar work In institutions of a like grade
not receiving state support. Mora so, for
state Institutions have been developing so
rapidly and the needs have multiplied to
auch an extent that It Is likely to be 1m
possible for ua out of th funds provided
to give more than meager salaries for the
grade of work which they require, partlc
ularly ln schools of science and liberal
arts.
The president of another not distant
state university declares:
I happen to know that Mr. Carnegie be
lleves In stat universities as one of the
higher expressions of democracy, and
fully bellev that be did not Intend to
discriminate against them. The language
he use "I do not presume to Include the

THE STRANG1CR.
A Gypsy Legend, by Arthur Gulterman.
He came before the lonely stead.
And spake ln music rich and deep:
"Now let me In, and make my bed!
The time hath com when I would sleep.
She drew the latch, that maiden brave, '
And bade the pallid etranger stay.
No word nor look ot thanks he gav J
But heavy, heavy, down he lay. J
And seven times the sun arose.
And seven times the shadow crept.
And still he breathed In deep repose.
And still she watched the while be slept.
At length when dawning shimmered red
He cast aside the drowsy spell;
Then, laughing clear, the maiden said:
"O, dark-haired youth, thou aleepest
well!"
"My rest hath stayed a flood of tear
That now must flow," tho stranger spake,
"I sleep but Once a thousand years.
And mankind sorrow when I wake."
"Then rest thee still!" she murmured lowj
"Who are thou, youth?" H made replyi
"My nnme, alas! thou must not know.
For they that hear will surely die'
She laid his hand across her heart
And spake her truth with naught of
shame:
"I love thee, whatso'er thou art;
Then let me die, but tell thy nameP
Oh, thrice the ruddly lips he pressed
And sadly kissed the goldon head
That bowed and sank upon his breast:
"My name is death!" the stranger ald.
