Washington, May 25.—I dislike very much to be always posing in the attitude of ^ prophet, In this cor respondence, but It is human nature to be pleased with ones self when any prediction comes true. It was stated in this correspondence nearly a year ago and reiterated from time to time, that) when the rub came on the railroad rate bill the Republican administration, that has been mak ing such a brave front in the so-call ed interests of the people on that subject, would turn tail and run like a scared dog, would lie down like a steer in the road, would surrender abjectly and completely to the rail roads. That is just what it has done. Mr. President Roosevelt, the “idol of the people.” the man in whom they blindly believe, the men who can do n- wrong, has giverr in to the men who represent the Interests of the roads and has accepted the one amendment to the bill that they want. An amendment to take the rate-making power out of the hands of the commission and pbac'* it in the hands of the courts, just where the railroads want it placed. According to this amendment the rate fixed by the commission does not hold until the courts have adjudicated the mat ter. thus compelling the roads to get busy and trv the case as soon a# pos sible, but it stop* the rate from being operative until the courts have de cided whether or not' it is a just rate, etc., and so on to the end. Thus the roads can keep the rate in question in the courts as long as they please and wear the shipper to a frazrJe. This is what the mads want and of course they will accept it and the bill wilt pass with this amendment and then this hypocritical administration w'” sing out loud and long that it has gained a victory for the people and the people will believe that it has and will go on swearing to it and will never know the difference. The only people who will know the dif ference will be the shippers of the country, and not one-tenth of the voters of the country are shippers Thus nine-tenths of the voters of the country are fooled and will continue to believe that this Republican ad ministration has gained a victory for them over the railroad corporations. Oh, what idiotic rot! I am rapidly Josing faitti in the saying of the im mortal Lincoln that “you clan fool part of the people some of the time, and all of the people part of the time, but you can’t fool all of the peo ple all of the time.” It looks very much like this adminis tration is fooling all the people all of the time and that It will keep it up unless the people will begin to be lieve what is told them by those who know whereof they speak that this Roosevelt administration is the mt- tenest fake and humbug administra tion that ever attempted to adminis ter the affairs of this government. * * * This whole railroad rate legislation is a humbug and fraud. 1 said so a year ' > and I am sticking to it. The Democrats in the House voted for the Hepburn 'bill because it was the best thing they could get. It is far from a complete measure that will give the people what they need and ought to have In Hie way of railroad legislation. What the people want in legislation is something that will stop the rebate ovil, and this, the Republican congress will not give them. The people are not clamoring for lower rates, but they are asking that unjust discriminations lie stop ped, that one man shall not be given a lower rate than another ami that proper punishment be provided for the rebate giver and taker. There is a law on the statutes today, the Elkins law, that provides a fine for the giving of rebates on freight, but what does a railroad care for a fine when thev are getting rich by paying them and continuing to disobey the law? Again, the Elkins law is a dead letter <>n th* books for no attempt has been made b> this administra- tration to enforce it. What’s the use, then, giving them more law that thev do not intend to enforce? The pre sident sends in his brave message to the congress and cusses out the rail roads for giving rebates to.the Stand ard Oi] Company, thug creating a mo nopoly in the oil business and mak ing the greatest trust) in the world, but h» does not nroeecute the rail roads for the giving of the rebates and ha does not prosecute the Stand ard Oil Company under the Sherman anti-trust law, which likewise is a dead letter under this rotten Repub lican administration. Why does he send in messages asking the congress to give him more law that he will not enforce? Whv does he not get busy with his department of justice and do something that will make the • f^ople reallv <av that his administra tion is a good one. The administra tion is not built that wav and It will go down In history as the rankest and --ottenest fake and failure and Its head as the most monumental moun- l tebank who ever tried to do bulsness the white house. According to Roosevelt this is rank treason and late majeste, but if so. let it go at that, for It also Is the truth. • * • The Democrats of the senate had the best chance In the world to place the Republicans In a hole on the rate bill and then soap the sides and pull up the ladder, but, as usual, they di vided and never could get together on anv thing. Thev have about lost the opportunity to do anything like making political capital on the rate bill and the fight this fall for the lower house of congress narrows down to the question of tariff revi sion and the trusts. The Democrats can make a winning fight on that, alone If the; will but follow uj> th«* j advantage they have gained so far. 1 Th-' proofs wo have shown up to the effect that the manufacturers of this country who are protected bv the tariff wall are selling g<s).U to foreigners cheaper than to the eon- sumers at honie has pieced the R®* publicans on the defensive and th' ,v are running like a jack rabbit with a hungry coyote camping on ids trail It Is an object lesson ho plain that he who runs mav road and If the peo ple of the country can’t see It and won’t see It and keep on voting the Republican ticket and send back Republicans to congress who will continue to vote to rob them, then thev deserve to he robbed. * * * Another great) big case of robbery of the people In the interest of the steel and armor plate trusts is in the naval bill now before the house of representatives and which appro priate $100,000,000 to maintain the navy and build great big battleships at a cost of millions of dollars each. It not. only is robbery but idiocy to spend millions on a battleship that can be sunk in twenty minutes by one of these little ‘‘di ’dapper” sub marine torpedo boats that do not cost * half million dollars. Take one of these little submarine torpedo boats of the Holland type .that has proved its efficiency in every way and in every emergency and that cost about $500,000 each and it can make junk out of a $10,000,000 battleship in a few minutes. We can get' twen ty of those boats for the cost of one battleship and thev will beat all the big, long range guns In the world for coast defenses. Every other country that is up-to-date is doing that very thing and why In the name of com mon sense does not this country do the same thing? Why do we need a large navy? To protect American commerce? Stuff and nousense! Nearly all American commerce is carried in England and German ves sels and the navies of those coun tries are protecting it because those vessels fly the flags of their coun tries. What is the use building more battleships to protect something we haven’t got? That is a case of plac ing the cart before the horse with a vengeance. The thing to do is to stop robbing the people in the in terest of the steel and armor plate trusts, save millions a year buying submarine torpedo boats and spend some of the money building up the merchant marine <>f this country in the interest of the shippers of the country. * * * Speaking of the shipping interests of the country and its merchant ma rine, I met and had a talk the other day with a member of the Merchant Marine Commission that} drew th© shi”'ing bill now before congress. In defending the bill as something that would build up the merchant marine of the country, he said: “Be yond the strengthening of two exist ing mail-contract line«—one to Great Britain and the Continent and one to Ausuralia—all the new regular steamship services involved in this bill ,are to the markets of South and Central America* Mexico , South Africa, and the Orient. No provision whatever is made for an additional uew lin r> to Europe. The speed re quired of al] these new lines, while adequate, is so moderate that ships built to perform the coutracts will all be large carriers «f cargo. The mail subvention is not a new expe- divnt in the maritime policy of the I’nited States. Sixty years ago Pre sident Polk, a Democrat, recommend ed that such subventions bo given to encourage the steam mer. lumc fleet, and congress grunted large sums for the establishment' of mail lines not only to Europe*, but to the West In dies and tho Isthmus of Panama and in the Pacific Ocean. Thtre is, there fore, abundant precedent for the mail subventions of the present hill. They involve no departure whatever from the old and accepted national prac tice which operated successfully from i847 until the system was tempora rily abandoned in the unhappy sec tional quarrels in congress imme diately preceding the civil war. Bui the commission has felt that public sentiment would not be content, un der present circumstauces. with of fering national aid to a few specified sisil lines. Therefore, in section 2 of this bill, a general subvention at the rate of $5 per ton U provided for the useful cargo carriers of the “tramp” type, which are particularly valuable for the transportation of bulky agricultural products, and the vessels of the deep-sea fisheries. No general subvention of this kind for the encoragement of “tramp” or cargo veH.-els lias ever been given by the I Ini ted States. The nearest approach to this is the bounty grant ed from 1792 to 18W5 to the vessels and men of the deep-sea fisheries. The subvention ’’ow proposed Is not) a gift outright. IU conditions are carefully guarded by the terms of the bill. ;-nd every effort has been made * require an equivalent to» the nation through service widch must be ren dered by the shipowners toward the c-°ation of a naval reserve and kb • expansion of commerce.” Chag.
