Companies iu check, thoughtfull men of all parlies in. the Voited -States have retched' ' the conclusion that the government . of the United Sta'es is the proper agent of the people to . exercise this restraining power. To effectuate this thought there is a bill now pending in Congress to increase the powsr of the Inftibtate Cbmr merce commission so that it can regulate interstate commerce by, prescribing the freight rates. In hia address in Philidelphia at the 42 aniversary of the UuionJ League in that city on Jan. 80th in eyocscj ti '.hi uuii"oi giving the;iiiti6nal governmeajt this power" to control corpor atious, among, other things in the tama line President Roose velt said. . ' "(Joquestlonitblx, however, the great dereldment ol lndaitriallsm mesb's that there niost be 'an Increaee in the nyerrieldn ' exerclied by the goTern ment otet bailrieM eoterprlees. ' "Neither this penpl nor any other rreeie0ple will 'permanently tolerate the use of the Vast power and conferred by j vast 'wealth, and ' especially by wealth In its corporate form, vitbont lodgihg somewhere In the government the: still fafgber power of seeing that this power, in addition to being nsed in the interest of the ladlvidual or in dividaals jxWeeielng' itl ,4i .aleotnsed for and not jgafnst the Interests of the people as a whole. . MAt the present moment the greatest need is for an inoresse In . the power of , the national government . to keep the great highways of commerce open alike to all on reasonable andjequltable terms." , :'Less .than ,a century,. ago .these highways were still, as they had. been Dce the dawn of history, either water ways, natural or artiffclai, or else ordi nary roads for wheel vehicles drawn by, animal power. Tbi ijtQrvad f baob, was utterly unknown wheir ourgoTerd pent was formed and when the great principles of oar Jurisprudence were laid j downThas now ."become; almost everywhere the most.. iinpoctast aadr In many large regions, the only form of highway for. commerce. AThe-tnaa. who bcotrfil Iti dm can not bej Relltei to sontrol it In his own Interest alone. , ,1'Doubtless no law would aooomp. Ush all that anthoeiasts hope; there is Always disappointment over the re sults ol inoh a law among the over eangalne; bat very real and marked good baa oome from the legislation aadj .administration ' of the last few years ; and now, as part of a coherent plani tt Is entirely possible, and, in deed, necessary to enact an additional law, which will mean farther progress along the tame lines of definite aohlevemeno in the direction of secur ing fair dealing as between man and man. v "In) some such body as the Interstate commerce oommlssion there mast be lodged In effeotlve shape the power to see that every shipper who uses the railroads and every man who owns or managea a railroad shall on the one hand be given justioe and on the otner hand be requlied to do justioe." Now that Union has failed io secede from the Union, she will be compelled to be good for at least two years more and by. that time she, it is hoped, will be impressed with the old proverb "in Union there is strength." And whether she is or not before two years more has passed she will find it much ' more difficult to secure signers to another pe tition for county division than it was this time.' The people will have had time to think this all out; and , when they do the great majority of the taxpayers within the proposed new county will not be in favor of such. The expense of maintaining a small county is much greater in proportion than a large one and by that time the saving made by having the county seat at La Qrande will be manifest to all.
