Government ownership of railroads is
attacked as a mere compromise with the
logic of the situation by Charles F. Nesbit,
Socialist, of Washington, D. C, who ad
vances the startling proposal that the
erntnent should not only acquire the
railroads, but should operate them free
as to transportation of freight and equ
ability in carrying passengers. He
would make railways as free as as the
highways, as open as the rivers, and
promises that his plan would bring com
mercial equality which in the making
would destroy practically every existent
law of supply and demand, level land
values, reduce the cost of living, dissipate
monopoly and combinations and produce
social and economic revolution. He pro
nounces the whole question one of tax
ation, and is very sare that with efficient,
economical administration, there need not
be a material increase in taxation in order
to effect the purchase and management
upon the lines of his remarkable plan.

The 5,000 or more soldiers and 240
u!wsi , who are now in Ouba are re
ceiving extra pay at the expense of the
Cubans. Under the law, officers receive
an increase of ten per cent, and enlisted
men an increase of twenty per cent for
foreign service. It has been decided
that the extra cost to the United States
of sending the army to Cuba must come
out of the Cuban treasury, and this extra
pay. which will amount to over $125,
000, will doubtless be assessed against
the Cuban government

introduction of irrigation these large tracks

if any foreign power desires military
maps of the United States or any of its
possessions, it need only send in a party
of engineers to make them. There is no
law on the statute books to prevent such
action. The lack of legal protection is
thrown into attention by the statement
of General Wood that Japanese engineers
are making maps in the Philippines. If
German or French engineers should ap
pear in New York state, or Mexican
engineers in the Mississippi valley and
comrrerce making military maps, nothing
cou d be done, except possibly thru action
by one to prevent one's property from
trespass. If the connection between the j
spies and their governments could be
shown, the United States could protest
thru tne dip'omat.c channels and speedily '
secure their withdrawal, but if ihe fore gn '
