RAILROADS AND POLITICS
Senator Underwood of Alabama, signalizes bis ap­
proaching departure from office by a bright idea. He tells
a gathering that the railroads should be taken out of
polities.
Just splendid. And it only requires to complete the
Rchemo that we should take the farms and the factories,
the shops and the homes of the United States out of poli­
tics. We would have nothing left then and politics would
become the great void that some people should think
it ought to bo,
But before that time comes, we will have td take the
people of the United States out of polities. For some
strange reason they persist in staying in.
Just as long as people ride on trains and are dissatis­
fied with either charges or service; just as long as people
grow things to ‘be eaten or worn or otherwise used in
other parts of the country that can be most conveniently
reached by freight service; just as long as rail lines cross
along or over or under highways or through fields; just
so long as the whistle of a train is heard anywhere in
reach of human ears, we imagine that the railroads will
be in politics. Merely having government ownership will
not keep them out. for we will have men to run the roads
and those men will be “ in politics;” Merely to take the
appointment of public officials out of the hands pf Presi­
dents or governors, will not take the roads out of politics,
for the regulators, of railroads will have to be elected or
appointed by somebody. ,
The Underwood idea is an amiable, utopinn scheme,
but it has no relation to American citizenship. We have
to do things, not avoid doing them. And one of the things
we must do is to manage the relationship lietween means
of transportation and the hundred million people we have.
NOT TO IMPLANT RATS WITH DISEASE
The state board of health has been very wise and at
the same time very “ commonsensical” in forbidding the
planting of disease germs as a means of ridding Califor­
nia of rats.
The memlicrs of the board have decided that to scat*
ter disease as a means of killing off animals is too dang­
erous an undertaking.
It involves too many unknown factors. If the disease
can kill the rats, it may also kill other things that we do
not want to kill.
Not only humans, hut cattle, and poultry and domes
tic pets may lx? infected.
The action taken by the state board is one determined
by reluctance. It is not a positive stand, it is negative.
For that very reason, it is unusual. Usually, when a
way is found to do something, the experimental scientist
does not hesitate at all. He grasps at the opportunity. He
has an article in a paper about it, and the newspaper man
takes him at his word— bo sooner saitj than done! The rats
are gone because the scientist has found a way to make
them go.
* But commonsense has stepped in. It says: “ Hesitatel
There may be some kickback about this. You may do a
dollar’s worth of good at the cost of a thousand’dollars’
.worth of harm. Or the harm may be incalculable.”
This is the l»est sort of science. For it says: “ We will
take some time to look, before we leap.’^

REMEMBERING WILSON
They are proposing two more “ inejiiorinlR” for the
late Woodrow Wilson. One is a stamp; the other is a uni­
versity, to lx? erected nt Washington.
On general principles, a university is worth much
more than a stamp, whether the stamp is canceled or not.
“B ut in this (’aw*. wi> wynipnthize much inure with (lie stamp
idea.
The stamp is universal enough in its appeal, to please
those who especially desire that Wilson he universally
remembered. While the university might he remembered
by none except those within its immediate sphere of in*
fluence. And it would very Jikely lie another starveling
college, when we have enough of that sort. ,
* Better still, gather the funds for a school that would
be adequately supported by them, ns an institution within
a university already existing.
A university, at best, has a very hard time to keep Up
w ith the demands made upon it. And fine as the inspira­
tions in the name of Wilson would lie, we doubt if they
would be strong enough to get a great university going.
And we have enough meager ones.
And after all, what is a memorial, unless the memor­
ial itself is a thing worth while in itself.
W ibou. like every other man, great or small, is best
remembered “ by wbat he has done.”
