I know of no tnnn 1n the Northwest who

The railroads are annually collecting hun
dreds of millions of dollars on watered
stocks nnd watered U>uds. Ity this. I
mean stocks and bonds Issued In excess
of the honest worth of the properties.
The public ownership people propose to
dig up this corrupt ajatetn by the v'enr
roots. They know likewise that, under prl-
rate ownership of railroads, one coniniunt-
tv is built up at the expense of another.

(A powerful Argument from tho otato and neighborhood of W. J. Bryan.)
To the Editor of The Georgian.
In the state of Nebraska we have recent
ly organised a government ownership of
railroads league. I wan elected president
of the state organisation. We desire to
get the people to understand' the question
of national owuerahtp of our railed high
ways. We feel perfectly confident that
when It Is understood It will lie opposed by
no person except those who are especially
Interested In the present system nnd by
tha lgaorablT
In the
the I’nlted Htates have
reason of the private ownership of rail
roads. Mr. Iloelcefeller's great fortune was
built up by millions and millions made In
watered stocks nnd watered Itouils and mil
lions made lu Industry by favors given to
blm and denied to nthera.
The public ownership people make no as
sault upon any legitimate business. They
know that public ownership will offer n
greater Individual Incentive than the pres
ent conditions afford, lu the Northwest,
the grsln business Is In the hands of n
few cliques None of these man live In
the communities where the grain Is pro
je gral_
of grain Is likewise true of commodities
produced In the Mouth. The only way to
solve the question Is by pnhlle ownership.
Tha talk at regulation Is nonsense in Mr.
Cleveland's first term we were given the
orlgnnl Interstate commerce law. Great
things were claimed for It. It fooled the
people for n good tunny years. Hut It did
no permanent good. The bill passed un
der Mr. Uooaevelt's administration la the
Cleveland law pntrhed over. It Is pencil-
oally «*o better than Urn Cleveland law,
and rxpertenre with It will prove this to
be true. There Is no such thing as regu
lation anti every student of the railroad
question that I have met nss agreed on
tliai proposition. That Is not only the
Judgment of the publir ownership people,
but If you can have a heart to heart talk
with any railroad 1 raffle manager ha will
tell you fho saiuc rtitnr.
The Mouth and the West arc the wealthy
agricultural portions of the tuition. It la
from these wealthy sections tbat many
enormous fortunes have iwen made by the
owners of watered stocks nnd watered
hotifls. They compel the people to pay
freight and passenger rates high enough to
pay dividends on them- dishonest securi
ties. We, lu the Northwest, are going to
make n terrific effort to end these wicked
practices. We don't want Modallsm. We
don't want the public to take up private
business, and for equaly good reasons we
don't want private men transacting the
public business In their own way. We are
about the last powerful rlvlllsed country,
except Kngtnnd. to permit prtvnte men to
exercise n despotic power In the matter
of transportation. Even Mexico has already
seen that It was necessary to tako over
her railways ort b»»y would be taken con

If. aa he claims, the aereuth-day Hahbath

covenant, at toe crucifixion of Christ,
then may I ask whether. If In the passing
away of the fourth comma oilmen t. the other
nine went the oamc way? If this bo true,
then It would be no sin Iteforo God for man
to do any of the thluga which were forbid

of the Mosaic covenant, we

a part of the covenant aa the fourth com

WHAT 8HALL WE
DO FOR THE GIRLS?
To the Kdltor of The Georglnn:
Everyone knows that H's a deplora
ble fact that the girls of today need
much looking after that they do not
get.
Much Is said about the youth being
the hope of the nation's future. Lei ua
consider the. maiden and her Influence
on the time that la to come.
Women have nometlmea played con
spicuous parts on the national stage—
ms-“ sz^ssixznmsz.
hatchets, nor by tvhtntng aa star# before Hmeng Kwv»k»ww>IU, .article. ''Sunday
the footlights, but most always doing — • -
their rtrongeat parts behind the scenes.
You can name a president whose wife
gave him the rudiments of an educa
tion and encouraged hla ambitions,
thereby fitting nnd helping him to be
a leader In serving and looking after
the welfare of our country.
How often do we heor a man say:
"If It were not for the help and sym
pathy of my wife I Would not have the
courage to face life's temptatlomi and
responsibilities." This good wife waa
once'the young datigflier of parents
whose greatest ambition In life wan
to teach her the Importance of modenty
aa a virtue, of education as a privi
lege and lave of home a part of her
religious duty, and thin was the rule
and not the exception.
There are numbers of girls on the.
streets every day killing time because
there In no attraction for them at home.
The writer recently saw three little
girls ranging In ages from 12 to 14
laughing and talking noticeably loud In
nn Ice cream parlor.- Presently the lit
tle serving boys ‘Took notice" nnd were
•oon ''making eyes” and even talking
to them, ufter which there wan more
giggling and more "eyes.” I wonder
where the mothers of those girls were?
Therein lien the keynote of thin theme.
The responsibility of a mother bringing
up a family In far greater than that of
the president of the United Htates.
"The hand that rocks the cradle Is the
hand that rules the world,” then moth
ers, he careful as to the rocking of that
cradle, no that when the little occu
pant goon to her ruling she may do It
wisely. Instead of letting your daugh
ter go out for entertainment while you
meet your card club nnd spend the
morning gambling for a pair of allk
hone, why not give up the card club
and go out with your daughter—walk
with her. drive with her or stay at
home wl*h her.
There in an net res* much talked of
Just now who nays If her mother hnd
been tllfi'ermt she hernelf would not
have led the life she has. Isn’t that
an awful thing for a girl to say of her
mother? Goil pity that mother and
have mercy on that daughter!
Tin* girl of today Is the woman of the
futur* and though she may not be your
daughter, she may become the wife of
your non.
It matters little nn to the fashion of
her tlrenn. the cut of her shoes or the
correctness of her bat. but It doe# mat- j
ter imirth at to the care of her bod**

Idea of au eternal God and an eternal
heaven? From tie Illltle. Does the Bible

and aa mneh and more of an eternal hell
than It does nf an eternal heaven. Now la
a ninn honest with God. with the Hllilr
•ml with blmoelf who says there h uo •ter
ns! hell?
Now. Mr. Kdltor. If there la no eternal
hell, then there la no eternal heaven, nnd
there la no •tarnal God. You can aa Milly
blot out an eternal find aa you can blot
out nu eternal hell.
The whole plan of human redemptlon-
