UNMERGING HELD WISE Regulated Monopoly Viewed as T'ar Preferable to Irresponsible and XT n res a la led Competition Road Said to Be Innocent. SAN" FRANCISCO. March 14. Lieutenant-Governor Eshlenian. ex-president of the State Railroad Commission, succored the cause of the Southern Pa cific Company Saturday when he took the witness stand for the defense in the Government's Central Pacific-Southern Pacific railroads unmerglng suit. He was the last witness to be called by the defense in the proceedings here which have continued for a fortnight, and which were adjourned today to re convene April la in New York City. Mr. Eshleman gave his views upon the proposed separation of the two roads in this language: "Regulated monopoly is preferrable to irresponsible and unregulated compe tition." Eshleman declared that i his opinion an unmerging of the Central Pacific and Southern Pacific roads would re sult only in throwing the present rail road system In California sadly out of joint, and that as a consequence the present efficiency of the lines would be lowered, while in all probability rates would be advanced. Joint agree ments between the divorced roads would, however, overcome these ill effects, the witness said. lie said that the Railroad Commis sion disapproved the sale of the Cen tral Pacific in 1913 to the Union Paci fic because the Commission thought that the Union Pacific was the offend Jnsr party, and that the Southern Pa cific was an innocent victim. "Ownership in Central Pacific and Southern Pacific terminals In California Is so tangled." said the Lieutenant-Governor, "that it would be difficult to separate it into equitable portions. If this were done, the road owning the terminals would assess the other roadj every cent possible for the use of them. "The upshot of a separation proba bly would be that present terminal fa milies would have to be duplicated out of capital investment, which would be a legitimate argument before a Cali fornia Railroad Commission for in creased rates." tiff were correct This is the substance of the reply brief filed in the Circuit Court Saturday by Mannix & Sullivan, attorneys for Dr. Parker, who is well known throughout- the country ai "Painless" Parker. " Ralph E. Moody, attorney for Hume, made a motion the other day for a non-suit, after three or four days had been consumed In direct evidence. "In order for the court to grant the non-suit." says the brief, "it must ap uear from the evidence already Intro duced that the libelous matter is true;- that is, it must, as a matter or law, appear that Dr. Parker, or Painless Parker, is a 'charlatan," that he has been arrested and convicted as a law breaker, etc." In conclusion the contention Is made that the Jury should be instructed that the burden of proof is upon the de fendant to Justify the publication of the alleged libelous statements. Dr. Parker says also that the editor of the Spectator, is eager to have the case non-suited so that it may era harass Parker in his forthcoming cam paign for the State Senate, for which office he already has announced his candidacy. y.

Portland will have no jitney legisla tion until after the regular city elec tion in June if the threats made by representatives of the Jitney Interests are carried out. It is said tne jitney people propose to circulate petitions te invoke the referendum on any ordi nance the Council may pass, regardless of its contents. This will mean the holding up of the measure until it can b voted upon by the voters at the June election. Specific objections have been, made by the jitney interests against prac tically all 'of the provisions of the pending ordinance which would tend to curb the operations of the machine. If these are eliminated it is said by the anti-Jitney Interests that there will be no more regulation than there is now. If they are not eliminated it is con tended by the jitney Interests that they will work hardships on the jitney busi ness and for that reason, they will at tempt to have the voters knock out the I ordinance. The jitney people have made specific and public objection to -provisions of the ordlance which would prevent over crowding of jitneys, would require them to operate on definite schedule, wouia Drohiblt them- from changing their routes at will, would limit them to five cent fare, would require them to have any inspection of tneir machines or make anv Drovislon for tne protec tion of the public in case 01 acciaent. and would keep them from operating on Washington and Morrison streets w the business center of the West side. The Council, in finally considering the litnev measure, will take into con sideration the probability of the refer endum beine invoked. Whether or not it will be made more or less arasti than it is now is uncertain. Th Council says it would be a calamity for the Jitneys to continue to operate without regulation and this might be th result of the enactment or too se vcre regulation. It is feared that If the measure is too severe the Jltneyi mln-ht Be able to get tne mtmuio uj fented at the June election, in tnis event should another measure be enact ed It would have to go over' for two years before being voted upon again if the Jitneys again should invoke the referendum. Commissioner Daly declares that pud lie nninlon is in favor of tne jitneys. and if the Council wishes to regulate the business it should not go too 6trong. Otherwise, he says, the ordinance mignt be knocked out by the voters.

In her suit filed against Conkle. Miss Bevington charges the former with de sertion and non-support. According to Attorney Walter Dip pie, counsel for Miss Bevington, Conkle met Miss Bevington while working in 1857 on an old mill near her home.

BALD? STUDYMUSIC, PLEA Boston Doctor Says Harmony Makes the Hair Grow. . BOSTON. March 3. Dr. K. Kenrick Smith, a prominent Back Bay physi cian, says that the love of their art, the tranquillity, the peace, the har mnnv and the iov of music is what makes musicians' hair grow long, and nrovxnta them from getting Daia headed. ' Tir Smith savs: "If frieht or grief will turn the hair white, which we all know some times occurs, why is it not perfectly logical to assume that the opposite ntnmn. that Is. the tranquillity, peace harmony and joy of music, would tend tn nrnduce an opposite result? "An expert statistician, after months of labor, announces that only one of everv hundred devotees of music Is hairless, while in every other profes sion. eleven in every one hundred are bald. This may, in part, be due to the habit traditional to musicians of al wavs brushing the hair backward. "Professional men, as a rule, keep their hair cut short, and are such slaves to their barbers that they keep it plastered down smoothly. Wearing tight, stiff, hard-rimmed hats accentu ates this still further, and the hair is pressed down flatter and bound to the top of the head in a firm, vice-like pressure. "The musician whose hair Is brushed carelessly backward always has tne habit of running his fingers through It. which stimulates healthy activity and circulation In the scalp."
