BELLEFONTE, PA., FEB. 3, 1905. Mr. Bryan and Mr. Williams. Since Mr. WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN, of Nebraska, and afterwards Mr. JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS, of Mississippi, bave as. sured the President that ‘‘they are in line with his motion on the question of discrimination in rates of and the payment of rebates by railroads,’”’ that subject has assumed a new aspect. Mr. BRYAN isa very influential private citizen and Mr. WILLIAMS, the Democratic leader on the floor of Congress, and their opinions are necessarily important. What motives in- floenced them to their declarations on the subject have not as yet been made public but it may be said is was no sudden im" pulse. Mr. BRYAN declared for Federal control of railroads two years ago, and Mr. WiLLiAMs endorsed the President’s message on the subject the moments it was read in Congress. : The question of Federal control of cor. porations is one of the gravest character. It is certainly not in consonance with the principles of the Democratic party as ex- pressed by JEFFERSON and must be regard- ed as utterly intolerable to any one who be- lieves in JEFFERSON’S doctrine of a strict construction of the Federal constitution. By that instrument all powers not express- ly delegated to the Federal government are reserved to the States or the people, and the right to regulate the business of corpor- ations created by the States, within the State, has certainly not been delegated spe- cifically or inferentially to either the President or Congress. But discrimi- nation in rates and payment of rebates by railroads are great evils and if these wrongs cannot be righted any other way the sup- pression of them might justify an amend- ment to the constitution. We have great respect for the intelligence and patriotism of both the gentlemen who bave spoken, but our respect for the funda- meptal law of the land is paramount to all friendships or other considerations of what- ever kind. That being true we can’t see how it would be possible for Congress to act in the manner in which Mr. BRYAN and Mr. WiLLIiAMS suggests without violating the The right to regulate inter-} te commerce is pnguestionably conveyed | by the constitution to Congress and laws ruption of traffic and regulating the rate ‘of freight that could be charged while pass- ing through States other thau those from which the corporation obtained its.charter- ed right. Bat to go to the extreme of holding thas Congress can interfere with or regulate the business of a corporation within the State that gave it birth is, simply to place every corporate interest, no matter how small, or how local within the power of the Federal government to do with as it pleases. If would be giving to Maine and to Florida, to California and to Washington the pow- er to regulate the price we shall pay for gas, electric light, bridge and pike toll, ag- riocnltural implements, coal or any article, commedity or convenience manufactured, sold or furnished by. a corporate company. Is there any visionary anywhere wild enough to imagine that such a condition of affairs conld be either beneficial to the peo- ple or in accord with the spirit and intent of our form of government. ee re era Roosvelt’s Philadelphia Speech. The President’s speech at the Union League anniversary in Philadelphia, on Monday night, was a candid, complete and fairly forceful exposition of his scheme to put railroads under control of the Fed- eral RKovernment. The brief reference to good deal with respect to his purpose to conjecture. The Philadelpbia speech howeyer,’ and shows that he really desires to exer- cise absolute control. In fact he says, if wvecessary, he ‘would bave the constitution amended to compass the puipose. , We bave no idea, however, that the President’ s speech in Philadelphia will in the least measure promote his plans. He hinted that there is danger in delay and that if the desired changes are not made cautiously they may come violently; that if reforms are not effected by friends they may be forced by enemies. But the Phila- delphia Union Leaguers who have been buying legislation and controlling elections by fraud, for years, are not likely to be- come alarmed av the mild admonition of a gentleman who is’ particularly fond of luxurious special trains. The President is entirely righ in his opposition to discrimination in freight rates through the paying of rebates or otherwise. Ibis an evil which works the destruction of competition - first and ‘ulti- mately of prosperity. But even in hie Philadelphia speech be doesn’t hint at the real remedy which is hoth expedient and constitutional. The penalizing of the act is the sure care but the President doesn’t even allude to it. In fact, he substantially declares against it for he proposes fines for the offending corporations rather than imprisonment for the criminal officials. years. Interest in the Question Abated. It is practically settled that there will be no legislation giving the Federal govern- ment control of the railroads at the present session. I6 is almost certain that there will be no extra session of the next Congress for the enactment of such legislation. The President has found out something that has abated his zeal. He isalready turning his attention to race suicide, the parity of the home and other psychological questions which he now declares are paramonnt to all economic problems. Besides they are less dangerous to handle. Asan esteemed Phila- delphia contemporary pats it, nobody de- clares for public immorality out loud. We can understand in some measure what bas influenced the President to a change of heart on the subject of Federal control of the railroads. When be first de- clared his opinions on that subject rather tentatively, the railroad magnates took somewhat kindly to the proposition. His plan had a little joker concealed in a forest of verbiage created hy PAUL MORTON which was exceedingly enticing. It proposed to legalize pooling which bas been a sort of forlorn hope of the railroad managers en- gaged in interstate commerce for many To this scheme Mr. CAssATT and. others gave a prompt and cordial assent. Bat the shippers went for it with rough hands and the President abandoned the joker. Then she big railroaders wens over to Washington ‘and began ‘‘doing things.”’ They called out the railroad solicitors in the Senate and told them what would bap- pen to their professional salaries if they monkeyed with Federal control of the rail- roadson any other terms than those proposed by MorTON and the Senators carried their tales of woe to the White House. Of course the President wasn’t very well pleased be- cause he is marvelously fond of having his own way, but he found out that he would have to accept the inevitable and that if he pressed the Senators too strenuously he wouldn’t get any kind of legislation that he wanted at all. The result is an abate- ment of interest in the question. ‘The Delaware River Improvement. <ul We take this opportunity to “protest against the appropriation out of the State Treasury of ball a million dollars for the improvement of the Delaware river. The reason given forsauch an appropriation is that Congress refuses to make an appro- priation or such work unless the State re- veals sufficient interest in the matter to contribute part of the expense. That is not a good reason to begin with. Congress has not made such conditions in other cases and if Philadelphia were properly represented in Congress there would be no discrimina- tion against that city. Philadelphia elects machine men with neither intelligence nor influence to represent her and should pay the penalty of dereliction. Besides the improvement of the Delaware river is a matter entirely local to Philadel- phia. It is said that the effect will be a considerable increase of the commerce of the city. If that be true itis the business ‘of the city to pay whatever proportion of the expense which Congress refuses to as- The people of the State have no in- terest in the matter, If the Delaware river is improved to the full measure of the hopes of the business men of the city the expense of products sold from that city to the people of this will not be lessened. In other words the advantage of the improve- ment will go to Philadelphia and therefore the people of Philadelphia should pay for it. That is reasonable. The people of Philadelphia contribute every year more than a million dollars for the maintenance of the most iniquitous political machine which was ever organized in any civilized community. It gives fran- .| chises of vast value gratuitously to favorite political manipulators. The captains of finance of that city cheerfully pay the enormous sums necessary to poll 80,000 fraudulent votes every year in order to de- feat the will of the people of the State as expressed at the ballot box. If they want to increase their foreign commerce les them pay some of that mouey for the improve- ment of the Delaware. Thus appropriated and used it will do no harm. As it is used now it works infamous results. Asinine Senator Spoomer. Senator SPOONER, of Wisconsin, made an amusing spectacle of himself daring the sessian of one of the Senate committees the other day. Senator BAcoN, of Georgia, who has an old-fashioned respect for the constitution as well as his oath of office, introduced a resolution asking the Presi- dent to send to the Senate, ‘‘if not incom- patible with public interests,’’ the corres- pondence relating to the San Domingo af- fair, and incidentally suggesting that there is no constitutional warrant for his action in the matter. Senator SPOONER declared such a resolution an insult to the President, a great outrage and nothing less than scan- dalous. According to the reports of the incident the committee was about to adopt the reso- lution without division or objection, but when SPOONER ‘‘made his little speech” party lines were drawn and no action was taken. The Wisconsin man got very ve- hement, however, and shook his shaggy main with ominous freedom. But nothing serious happened. Senator BACON quietly assured him that there was no intention to insult or otherwise injure the President, hut that his purpose was simply to ‘‘sup- port, obey and ‘defend the fundamental law of the land according to his official duty and agreeable to his oath of office.”” But SPOONER conldn’t be appeased. He was mortally offended. As a matter of fact the President bad no more right to assume the charaoter of an international policeman in San Domingo than he would bave to pull King Edward's nose if that gentleman should happen to offend him and his undertaking to collect the revenues and pay the debts of the Domingan government is an international outrage for which he ought to be properly chastised. Besides the resolution of Mr. BACON was similar in tone and the same in substance as resolutions which have been adopted by the Senate hundreds of times and been responded to at one time or another by every President who ever held office. SPOONER simply made an egregious ass of himself. The President Insulted. Representative CREASY’S little joke on the Republican majority in the House of ‘Representatives on Monday evening re- vealed a sad measure of inefficiency on the part of the ‘leadership of that side. Mr. auti-discriminasion clause of the Democratic National platform into a resolution of en- dorsement of the President’s crusade for -anti-discrimination and introduced it into the House of Representatives. Of course the majority leaders didn’t know that adopting the resolution was an endorse- ment of the Democratic platform: at the time. Bat in exulting over the joke subse- quently, the facts were revealed, where- upon the yote was reconsidered aud the resolution defeated: ; ~This supplemental idiocy only broadetied ‘thegoke, however, if it didn’t change the proceeding from a parliamentary comedy /into a political tragedy. That is to say in defeating the resolution they prevented an endorsement of the President of their own choice in his most cherished policy. In other words, the popular branch of the Legislature of Pennsylvania refused a vote of endorsement of the Republican Presi- dent while he was a guest of the principal Republican organization of the United States, in the chief city of the State for which the Legislature speaks, though he was at the moment appealing to the lead- ing Republicans of the State for support on the measure. The President was of course cordially ‘treated in Philadelphia but he could ‘get little comfort out of perfunctory courtesies there while the Legislature was practically condemning him at Harrisburg. It was the cruelist incident that we can call to mind in the political history of Pennsyl- vania. But it was exactly what was to be expected of a Legislature made up of in- competents and under the slavish domina- tion of a not too enlightened boss. Proba- bly Mr. CREASY intended to trick his friends, the enemy. Possibly he didn’t want the President endorsed at all. But his resolution was an unequivocal endorse- ment of ROOSEVELT and its defeat can be construed in no other light than as an insuls. Bill Which will be Defeated. It may be safely predicted that the bill introdnced in the Senate by Mr. Gob- CHARLES, of Northumberland county and in the House by Representative SNYDER, of Schuylkill, to create excise boards to grant liquor licenses, will never getloat of the committee. It was simply a “pincher’’ and will achieve its purpose without ever getting into position to jwork harm. The organization of a liquor deal- ers’ association with a lobby attachment, was an invitation to the legislative rooss- ers to present such measures. The liquor dealers want excise boards hecause if would make things comparatively easy for them. They are usually able and willing to pay for what they want. The advocates of law and order are opposed to the boards for the reason that the dealers want them, and they are sometimes willing} to pay legitimate expenses for the kind of legis- lation they want. The indications are that the liquor deal- ers are going to be worked ‘‘coming and going’’ this year. That is to say they will be pinched for the purpose of seouring legislation they want, notably the excise boards and to defeat legislation they don’t want such a3 a local option bill. It is the talk of the lobby that they have already ‘‘given up’’ for the excise bill. That was comparatively easy for there never was any intention of passing it and only a nominal sum was exacted. But with the local op- tion law it is different. They will be CREASY somewhat adroitly worked the | obliged to pay generonsly for the defeat of that measure though as a matter of fact it would be overwhelmingly defeated anyway for the machine is not’ going to fake the hazard of crippling so productive a politic- al ally as the liquor dealers’ association. Bat the managers need money. We are glad, however, that the tvobious exise board hill is not to be enacted. That would convert the license franchises of the State into a most powerful agency of polit- ical corruption. It would force every liquor dealer into willing or unwilling service of the machine and contribute more to the corruption of politics than any agenoy we can conceive of. We have no doubt that such a bill will be enacted some time if the machine continues its complete control of the Legislature. + But the present leaders are comparatively new and will not risk such hazardous measures until a few year’s experience have given them a better understanding of their work and greater confidence in their power. Until after the candidate for Governor is nominated they will not go to such extremes. But after that, the deluge. ; : '" A Vicious Measure. d—— - From the Pittsburg Post. 2 Short work ough to lie wade of killing | the proposed amendment so the Brooks lignor law which would take from: the |: courts the power of granting licenses in all the counties of the State excepts Phila- delphia and Allegheny, The bill proposes 0 vest this power ina board of three per- sons in each county, who are fo be selected by the people for five years, and who are to have all. the diseretion: ‘mow lodged: in the license courts.

The people of the whole State should take prompt steps to make known their opposi- tion to the proposed act and to all others whose object is to make our lignor laws worse, instead of better, than they are at present. The fact that the proposed law is to be fathered by lieutenants of Senator Pen- rose recalls the statement of she latter that there was to be no jobbery at this session of the Legislature, and makes pertinent the inquiry whether these men are suppos- ed to be trying to make that statement a mockery or not. The New 1mauguration Party: From the New York World, Jan. 28. So far as the regulation of railway rates is concerned Mr. Roosevelt's most enthusi- astic supporters in Congress are Democrats. John Sharp Williams, following the leadership of Mr. Bryan, bas pledged the House minority to ‘‘toe-mark’’ the Presi- dent's footsteps. He is appealing to the Re- publicans ‘‘as fellow citizens to belp us toe-mark.”’ Mr. Bryan is elated over Mr. Roosevelt's railroad measures. ‘‘There is a reform ele- ment in the Republican party as well as a plutocratic element,” he says, ‘‘and this reform element is now marshaling ‘behind the President.’’ While Democratic support of the Presi- dent’s rate recommendations has become ef- tusive, the President’s own party is exer- cising a good deal of self control. It is not so enthusiastic. To be sure, the western Senators and Representatives have heard the unmistakable demands of their conssit- uents. Hepburn has finally tinkered up a bill that is much more moderate than the one the President asked for. The ‘railroad group”’ in the Senate is playiug for delay and hoping to smother any railroad bill the House may pass. If the President had to rely on the Re- publican leaders there would be no rate legislation. But a new Administration party seems to be forming in Congress, oom of Democrats and radical Repub- licans. Will the conservative Republican element be able to resist this new force? Where it Could Have been Used to Better Advantage. From the Lincoln (Neb.,) Commoner. According to government statistics. the close of the year 1902 saw the completion of the 33,415 irrigation systems irrigating 9,500,000 acres of land. The Boston Herald bas made some interesting comparisons. It finds that the irrigation enterprises cost $93,320,452 and made 134,000 farms profit- able. The money spent by Uncle Sam on his navy in 1904 would have paid the en- tire cost of all these irrigation systems and left a balance of $9,500,000. Accord- ing to the government statistics the amoung speat on the navy would have irrigated and made profitable an area greater than the combined States of Maryland and Con- necticut, or more than half the area of In- diana. Every dollar spent on irrigation has added to the material wealth of the pation. The money spent on the navy did not increase the general wealth of the country a penny.
