THE JOURNAL STANDS FOR PROGRESS, DEVELOPMENT, GOVERNMENT. AND NO DEGRADUD LABOR. GOOD EACH AND ALL. Go In and do tho best you can, v Nor wasto your tlmo in sighing; Tho mind's tho moaauro of tho man, And strongth Is born of trying. And though you moot a sad rovcrse, Tho worifd Is still your debtor; 'Tls only that somo do things worso Tliat somo can do them hotter. Thoro Is a placo for ono and all; Each lias his given powers. Think what a sorry hush would fall Upon this world of ours If all tho birds In all the vales That now with songs aro ringing, Bocauso thoy aro not nlghtlngalo.9 Should ccaso their joyous singing! This Ufo's a gamo of crnck tho whip, And ovory man must play It. Somo strango forco koops us on tho skip, Thoro Is no way to stay It, If you can't bo tho loador bold, Why, you can bo tho lummox Who at (the lash's ond Is rollod ifeotlH over head, "Korflummux!" r, ' , ' Nlxon Waterman. ' i .THE TWO-OENT FARE. Tho reduction of patuongor rates throughout tho United States to a "basis of two cents a mllo within a very Bhort tlmo Is practically assured "by tho decision of tho presidents of tho principal wostorn railroad?, at a mooting in Chicago, not to mako a fight at this tlmo In tho courts ngnlnBt tho two-cont faro law of Illnois. Tho opinions of tho heads of their legal departments as to tho prob nblo outcomo of litigation ovor two-cont faro laws of this and other statm woro considered at tho m f ting. Whllo tho attornoys predicted that tho courts would declaro tho laws unconstitutional, bocauso tho rato of two cents a mllo Is unreasonably low and practically confiscatory, and also becauso tho lawp doprlvo tho railroads of .tholr right of oquallliy, tho gonoral vlow taken by tho prOBldents was tluit with tho PUBLIC SENTIMENT SO STRONGLY IN FAVOR OF A TWO-CENT FARE and tho Inability of -tho railroads to roduco Intorstato ratos to two conta a mllo In certain states, and to maintain a bards of three cents, a mllo In adjoining states and for all In torstato drips, It would bo folly to fight tho Illinois law and to contlnuo tho litigation which has boon begun In other states. Whllo .tho railway presidents did not outor Into any formal agreement us to their futuro policy rognrdlng paij3ongor rates, It was plainly stated by norno that tholr roads will reduce their rates to two conta a mile In Illinois on July 1 and aa soon as pouslblo will roduco Intorstato rnto.3 to tho samo basis. Tho decision by ono big railroad to adopt this policy forces all tho streot crossings nnd nlloys, and by other roads to do so, honco tho prodlctlon that THE TWO-CENT HA- constructing artificial stono curbs, In- IH OF RATES WILL SPREAD LIKE WILDFIRE THROUGHOUT THIS eluding corner blocks, nt all corners COUNTRY FROM THE ATLANTIC TO THE PACIFIC AND THE whoro no curved curbs now exist and LAKHS TO THE GULF." To rodmyj tho stato nnd Intorstato ratQ3 'o a basis of two cents a mllo will cost tho roads millions of dollaro annually, but tho ablest railway managers In tho West aro convinced that buch a roductlon In tho rov onuo of tholr companies from pasoongor traffic Is Inovltablo. It will havo tho offoct of making tho compotltlon for passongor traf fic strongor than ovor, each road Booking to offset tho docroaso In ratos, but It'uirooHlng tho niimbor of paaHongors, Tho number or pnwengor trains undoubtedly will bo roducod by I'ondn whtmovor It can bo do no without lotw of trnllic.
