rnay, Novemoor 1V, LWV. rilway that I especially represen but alst in behalf of justice and t1 ublie welfare, when I ask ihat ublie sentiment shall be create hich will discourage the giving cessive and oppressive verdict. inst railroad companies. "I do not believe that there a: opinions among candid and coi rate men as to the injustice th< t fo be visited upon corporatic ants by large verdicts. 'I have no doubt that frequent] jury itself is unconscious of ti stice of its action. It is difficu ' being influenced by a feelin -Mpathy for an injured individus s also difficult to escape flai fee ng -that a railway company is grea and powerful, and rich, and is. ent tled to no consideration. And 'y railway companies are not great < powerful, for they have little oppo runities of making friends. In th Southern country they are not nc but are still struggling to equip then selves adequately for the public se vice, and to keep pace with the woi derful commercial development < our people. They need money f< their development and improvemen which they cannot obtain from the current earnings, and which cann be supplied to them by law, but mu come from voluntary investors. ' get it, they must give assurance of constractive and helpful public sent ment and of just treatment by ji ries and in making of laws. "The fact that verdicts are many instances most excessive, at that there is a growing tendency make them more so, cannot fail arrest the attention and to excite t0 alarm of thoughtful and patriot men. "It is the desire of the railw company entrusted to my manag ment to settle promptly, and on reasonable and just basis, all propi claims for personal injury, for t] killing of live stock and for loss < damage of freight. "We wish to settle just clain without putting the claimants to t] necessity of going into court, and is our effor to do s . Where, hol ever, it is believed that a claim is s together unjust, or that 'the amou: demanded is excessive, there is not ing for us to do but to permit it take tlhe course of litigation. V ought to be. permitted 'to do so eo fident of receiving that measure justice, and that measure only, whi is meted out 'to an individual in b controverted cases. "The fact that at present there in a degree, one measure of justi for the corporation and another f the individual is, I think, the resu of a certain t'houghtlessness on tl part of the public. I am confide that the only thing necessary to cc ret it is to bring -the fair-mind American people i.o a realization the fact that justice is, and of rig ought. to be, the same, whether the:a sue be between two individuals orb tweea an individual on the one sit and a corporation on tVhe other--t] corporation being but an associati< of individuals, the property rights each one of whom are as sacred; the property rights of -any oth American citizen. "It is sometimes suggested th some of, our friends of the legal pr fession are, in a measure, responsib for enouraging the filing of exces ive claims. This was the idea co veyed by a recent eartoon, in whi a man, who had fallen from a stre car was represented as saying: feel all right, but I can't tell wl et er I'm hurt until I see a lawyer.'' Looking forward into the futum Mr. Finley exp.ressed the belief~ th Southern agricultural and indust.n development would continue. He d not view with alarm the tendency young people to leave the farm, b believed that, with the increased tactiveness and profitableness farm l.ife, the atide would turn' in t other direction. Referring to t .ood work being done by the ag cultural press of the South, he spo of a series of articles on how to ma $500 more a year from the far and, showing itihat an average $500 more a year would add $90 795,500 to the annual income of t farmers of the South, he said: "To the railway officials these fi ures suggest train-loads of cotton, fruits and vegetables, of hogs a: cattle, and of dairy products to hauled to market. They suggest et loads of agricultural implements a: machinery, of pianos, of carrias nd automibiles, and of other artica co tributing to the comfort a: convenience of the farmer and family. Is it to be wondered th -hose resonsible for the manas ment of the railways of the Sou1 seeing this agricultural advance i hand in hand with continued dustrial development, should ha faith in their territory and nhot b striving to the, utmos: to inere; th carrying cap)acity of their li: s as to be able properly to han the ncase in trafie which is st t, to come. te "Looking forward into the fuLture, a Mr. Chairman, we see the farmer, d the railway man, the miner, the man >f ufacturer, and the merchant, working together shoulder to shoulder, and bringing to our Southern people con- I :stantly increasing prosperity and hap i- piness, in which no one will share it more fully than the Southern farm n er. y Reducing His Contribution. e "Can you chip in $5 for a good i It fellow who is down and out?" g "I guess I can. 1.
