"Jo th I'nlon Taclflc case. he said,
"we arcued and. aa w thouchu logi
cally that tha ownership of th South

tha t'nlon Pacific, could not b a com

W based our artrument In th t'nlon

Pacific wa dependent on th handling
of transcontinental traffic to California
on It connection at Ogden with the
Central Pnel3c. which th Southern Pa
cific would aot us to Ita own disad
vantage. "Tho Government argued and th
9'tprem Court bold that aa a mailer
of practical railroading lhr had been,
before th t'nlon Pacinc merged, actual
competition between th Central I'a-cinc-lnl6n
Paclflo route, and tha Sun

connection of th fnlon Pacific were
competing with th Southern Tactile
water-Sunset rout, for Atlantic sea
board buslne-a lo California, and be
causa th Atchison. Topeka tc Santa
Ka wa competing for th Central west

"On this contention, th Government
won on th contention that by the dis
solution of the Union Pacific merger
competition between th Ogden route
and tha Sunset route would b restored.
Th Government cannot now coma In
and ask a severance of tha Central Pa

ground that competition cannot exist
between lb Ogden and the r.l t'aso

CHICAGO. Iec I. ; Special. Last
week It waa lha prlvllcR of the writer
lo b ona of a mall luncheon parly at
which "Or-:a nix lion for Rural Welfare"
waa tba loplo under discussion. The
parly Included th secretary of what
I probably th most Influential asso
ciation of business men In the Middle
West, and tha chairman of th legisla
tive committee of the most powerful
stata ors-anliallori of farmer In one
of tha c real est of our agricultural
state.
Tha central fla-'ir of the llltla croup
waa rr. friaries McCarthy, chief of the
legislative reference department of th.1
Stata of Wisconsin. t
Someone ventured to introduce the
subject of the political changes which
last election heralded throughout Wis
consin. Idea Is Declared Safe.
When asked if the -WIconsir Idea"
was In danger of being torn to pieces
and tho work of a generation undone,
Mr. McCarthy exclaimed:
Tear nothing! A small group of old
time reactionaries thought their time
had come and were going to pull down
everything. What have they done Al
most nothing. The Legislature was
not with them. The people wouldn t
stand for It."
The outcome of this conference was
that I set out for Wisconsin to gather
some first-hand facts.
I need only mention a few of the
laws which marked the evolution of the
"Wisconsin idea." The railroad com
mission was established; the public
utilities act followed; the tax commis
sion took charge of taxation; the in
surance commission took charge of life
Insurance: a law was passed providing
a state system of life Insurance; a new
banking code made Wisconsin banl.s
the safest In th country; conservation
and development of the natural re
soures of the state were provided for:
primary election and corrupt practices
act were passed: labor, health and pub
lic welfare bureaus were established;
co-operative laws were passed, includ
ing provision for rural credits.
Keac-atlea I Kanaaatlea.
Then th foundation for the perma
nence of this whole programme was
laid In the establishment of an educa
tional system which is today leading
every lat In the Union.
