The railroad lobbyists and their sympathisers are raising a sreet hue and cry In qeorgia because Goremor IJoke Smith and' others who believed in earning out the pledges of the party were acttve in stearins' substan tial compliance with the platform.

"We are servants and not masters. we who are or havejin engaged in large business affairs," says John D. Rockefeller. If that Is eo John, pay the fine Imposed by the master and obey 'the law made by the master. Actions will tell who Is master and who Is servant.

Mr. Roosevelt's speech yesterday trl.ll be widely read. His tribute to the Puritans is as fine as anything he has arltten and recalls his "Life of Crom well." It will be preserved as among the beet of the tributes to the men who settled New England and made it rich and powerful. After his tribute to Puritans he touched upon the topics of today. Having In mind the recent conflict in jurisdiction between the State and federal governments he said: "it eeems to me that such questions as national sovereignty and states' rights need to be treated not empiracally or academically, but from the standpoint of the interests of the people as a whole." That is to say, constitutional limitations have no weight. We must only regard "the interests of the peo ple as a whole." But who is to settle as to their "interests.?" He proceeds in the spirit of "What's the Consti tution betwixt friends?" or when it ' Ft said in the way of what is wished by a vigorous executive: "National sovereignty is to be up held In so far as it means the sover eignty of the people used for the real and, ultimate good of the people; and states' rights are to be upheld in so tar as they mean the people's rights." What does that mean? Simply that the view of the men in power as to the "good of the people" is superior to the limitations in the Constitution. Later on. Mr. Roosevelt says: "When the Constitution was created none of the conditions of modern business ex isted. They are wholly -new and we must create new agencies to deal ef fectively with them." Certainly, but only within Uhe limits of the Consti tution. If the new conditions mean changed methods, let them be em ployed as far as they may be consistently wrth the national chart, but If the Constitution stands In the way, are Its limitations to be disre garded or swept aside because Mr. Roosevelt or Mr. Somebody Else thinks they are antiquated? The men who framed the Constitution knew that there would be changed conditions snd they provided methods by which the Constitution would be amended to meet changed conditions, but nobody supposed then that courts could con strue away the constitution or execu tives proceed outside its plain letter. . Proceeding Mr. Roosevelt says that "State action cannot produce whole- some results," and he "goes the whole) v - t - - . . i nog ana aeciares in flavor or naving i common carriers, doing business in more than oneState, being "complete ly controlled In all respects by" the Federal Government, by the exercise of the power conferred under the in terstate commerce law, and, if neces sary, the post-road clause of the Constitution." He wishes to have this complete national control "similar to that which it exercises over national banks." If the Supreme Court should happen to be filled wrth a majority of men who have no more respect for the reserved rights of the States and f the limitations upon the power of the Federal Government than Mr. Roose velt holds if that calamity should come upon our country, then we would, no longer be a Republic based upon a written constitution, but would be a country without constitutional chart, to drift wherever the captain for the time being wished to steer. This is a danger in the Roosevelt idea that many have never yet considered. It is a serious menace to the government our fathers established. ' Coming to discuss the difficulties of enforcing the anti-trust laws. Mr. Ttoosevelft truly says "any effective ac tion on the part of the Government is always objected to, as a matter of , course, by the wrong-doera. by the 1 beneficiaries of tlie wrong-doors, and j by their champions." Have you heard i of any recipient of the tobacco trust j money applauding the proposed j prosecution of- that trust.? Instead, j have you not heard its beneficiaries rail afajnst "demagogues" (the name they apply to all men who do not grovel at the feet of the trusts) and denounce as "agitators" men who wish the law enforced against the trust that has helped them or their college, or their church? Hardly had the fine of Rockefeller been pro nounced before a college president, who had been given some of Rocke feller's money, declared it the result of the crusade against wealth. The "beneficiaries" thus try to pay back in talk for the money they get. In cidentally, they debase the" moral cur- j The man who fails to discriminate rency of their institutions and lower j between the tainted money of Rocke the ideals of the young men doomed j feHer and other trust magnates and to Instruction by men blinded by ( the clean money of many rich men flit8- made by good Judgment within the The president recommends other law. to doing great harm to himself legislation, and then returns to a dis- ( and to others. The man who made cussion of what makes for good citi zenship. It must be remarked by tvery careful reader that when Mr. ; RooMveit discusses the duties of citi lenship and kindred topics, he speaks with a strength and impressiveness that are full of uplift as they are rare. He has a genius for making the f'd fundamental things fresh, vital, and personal. Tom Reed, referring to his fresh manner of presenting the fundamental duties of man, said: "Why Roosevelt thinks he discovered the Ten Commandments" Well certainly he treats of the duties incul cated In them in a manner that every prsachar might covet. His address yesterday was masterly and helpful n discussing these matters, but much weaker when he came to make the application of the principles to pre sent day problems. With "The Puri tarts" as a text, no wonder his ad vocacy of letting, constitutional limi tations go by the board to destroy Stcte rights is wanting in convincing quality. Imagine the Puritans de- Clafinj that the preacher should seek 'Th3 people's good" and saying "that when the Bible was written, present cy .conditions did not exief we pivxi interpret the Bible in aecord p.hc witi our view of what is best Cor tie people." : If that had been ltritanlsm, there would have been no Pufitan character for Mr. Roosevelt to eulogize. If his method of dealing with the reserved rights of thai States and the limitations upon Federal power should prevail, we; would have a government at sea without rudder, chart or compass. Sometimes a good captain would keep it away from the rocks, but it would be no stable gov ernment where rights and privileges and duties have set metes and bounda WILL NOT SUBMIT TO FACTS. UNFAIR The Tarboro Southerner voices the sentiment of conservative and sensible men, whose only desire Is to see that the State shall treat the railroads with justice and that railroads' shall be as fair to towns in this as in other States, when it says: "If the railway people are to be be lieved, the expense of carrying freight and passengers in this State is so great that it is a wonder they operate a mile in the State; but for the life of us, we cannot comprehend how it is more profitable to carry freight from outh Carolina through this State to Danville than it is to carry for the same price from the same point to G reensboro." The truth is that the so-called "ex pert testimony"v is like much other ex pert testimony worth very little. All the big railroads are evidently get ting ready to try to defeat State leg islation and they have been advised that to do so they must show exces sive expense in handling intra-State business. And they are overdoing the thing, as the "gut shot" questions of Speaker Justice in New York clearly show. The people of North Carolina have full faith in the decisions of the Su preme Court of the United States based upon the construction of law, and will be guided by it whether It up holds their contention or not. But, in I the case now hearing before Judge Montgomery, the question of constitu tionality is one of fact, based upon the testimony as it Is sent to the Su preme Court by Judge Montgomery and Judge Pritchard. It is stated that the Supreme Court will give its de cision upon the facts as found by Judge Pritchard, who will of course trust to the report of the Master. The testimony has just begun and if anybody thinks a North Carolina statute can be annulled by such ab surd statements as the Southerner callis attention to they must be so biased as to be unable to look at the matter fairly. If North Carolina should lose its case by reason of such "expert testi- mony" as has been nalmed off un to date, the duty of the next Legislature would be to pass a two cent rate law to go into effect while tho Legislature Is in session without advertisement or promulgation of the change. Then it vould be in order, in anticipation of an injunction from a Federal judge, to apply to some State Judge for a mandamus to compel the railroad to put the new law into effect, following the action that was taken in Missouri. Under that course, the new rate would go into effect and the investigation as to whether it is "confiscatory" would be heard in the State courts, where the Judge would let the State name a Master and let the railroads name a Master, so that both should have a representative in the taking of testi mony. Besides, no testimony that is not based upon the operation of the roads affected can be regarded as con clusive. The only testimony that will go . to the root of the matter is the actual operation of the. railroads doing business in North Carolina. Their re ceipts and expenses, seriatim, must be probed to the bottom to get at the real truth. Teh State will not submit to high rates upon such expert guesses and contradictions and statements as are belr"? introduced in New York to mak 11 n a cae to defeat the 2 1-4 cent rate, If the Southern and allied roads think they can win any permanent victory by working in such testimony, they will find an "appeal to Caesar" and will soon learn that the fight has Just tegun. There m a great deal of friction in the Georgia Legislature. we are told. Certainly. The Georgia Legis lature has so long been greased to run on the Southern Railway schedule that it caused some trouble to get it on the people's track, and there was bo much monkeyinK with the switch that some of the cars were derailed. But Con ductor Hoko got through his chief measures and the others will come next time. his millions honestly Is just as good as the man who didn't. Let us keep In view tljat wealth is a blessing, hon estly acquired and honestly employed. Raleigh wants an auditorium and the matter of securing one should have been submitted as a straight proposition. The hotch-potch-three-propositions-in-one does not meet the need. The people have only one thkng to do that is worth argument: Vote down the proposition. Better nothing than a botch and an $100,000 debt. It is announced that the' Seaboard will observe the two cent rate law in Virginia. If all railroads would obey the lawis aind work half as hard to obey the laws as they try to annul them. It would be better for the peo ple and better for tha railroad. What's in a name? Daniel L. Russell fcs the name of the head of the telegrapher;;' strategy board. The ! operative in North Carolina hope he Is in no sense like the ex-governor of that name The Washington Star voices the best sentiment In the country when it saya "there is a growing disposition on the part of hp general public to let Wall street have it panics without outside interference. : . UNDER WIUCH KING, BENZONIAN, 8PEA DIE. From the day u.ai jjudge Laftdls Im posed the fjne of twenty-nine million dollars on the Standard Oil trust for violating the anti-rebate law. powerful interests haye been at work to try to precipitate sufficient i famine to force tho administration to take the back track kin prosecuting trusts. ; Before that, certain big railroad men had been willing to have securities drop if they could thereby defeat rate regulation, and go back to the old plan .of doing as you please. It is for the purpose of frightening investors and trying to get public opinion on their side that this scare panic has been precipitated' by the Harrimans and the Rockefellers and the allied interests. As soon as he could get his breath, after the big fine, Mr. Rockefeller gave out an interview in which he predicted that unless the prosecution of "corporations" (these trust magnates always try to enlist le gitimate corporations to pull chestnuts out of the fire for them) was discon tinued, the business of the country would be demoralized and disaster would soon wipe out prosperity. Some good people were scared by his de claration artd others were coerced by the slump in prices. Appeals have been made ' to the President to "do something to stop the panic conditions." The country looked to his speech at Provincetown yesterday for an indication of his pur pose. His tv-ords breathe the spirit of defiance to law-breakers and justice to those who obey the law". "Here are the words that will be widely approved; Warning to Panic Makers. During the present trouble with the stock market, I have, of course, re ceived countless requests and sug gestions, public and private,, that I should say - or do something to ease the situation. There is a world wide financial disturbance. It Is felt in the bourses of Paris and Berlin, and British consuls are lower, while prices of railway securities have al so depreciated. On the New York stock exchange the disturbance has been particularly severe, most of It I believe to be due to matters not particularly confined to the United States and to matters wholly' uncon nected with any governmental action. But it may be well that the determina tion of the government, In which it will not water, to punish ' certain malefactors of great wealth, has been responsible for something of the troubles, at least to the extent of hav ing caused these men to combine to bring : bout as much financial stress as tuej possibly can in order: to dis credit the policy of the government, and thereby to secure a reversal of that policy, so they may enjoy the fruits of their evil doing. That they have misled many good people into believing that there should ; be such reversal of policy is possible. If so, I am sorry, but It will not alter my at titude. Once for all, let me say that, so far as I am concerned, and for the eighteen months of my administra tion that remain, there will be no etiange in the policy we have steadily pursued, not let up in the effort to secure the honest observance of the law; for I regard this contest as ono to determine who sliall rule this gov ernment the people through their governmental agents, or a rew ruth less and determined men whoso wealth makes them particularly for midable, because they hide behind the breastworks of corporate organixatlon. 1 t1h there to be no mistake on this point. It is idle to ask me not to prosecute : criminals, rich and poor. But I desire no less emphatically to have it understood that we have un dertaken and will undertake no action of a vindictive type, and above all. no action which shall inflict great or unmerited suffering upon the Inno cent stockholders and upon the public as n whole. Our purpose Is to act with the minimum of harshness compati ble with bbtulnlng our ends. : In the man of great wealth who has earned his wealth honestly and used It wisely we recognize a good citizen worthy of all praise; and respect. Business can only be done under modern conditions through corporations, and our purpose is to heartily to favor the corporations that do well. The administration ap preciates that liberal but honest profit for legitimate promotors and generous dividends for capital employed either In founding or continuing an honest business venture, are the factors nec essary for successful corporate activ ity, and therefore for general pros perous business conditions. All these are compatible with fair dealing as between man and man and rigid obedience to the law. Our aim Is to help every honest man, every honest corporation; and Our policy means in its ultimate analysis a healthy and prosperous expansion of business activities, of honest business men and honest corporations.: The above statement by MiS Roose velt was possibly called forth by a double leaded leading editorial in yes terday'3 New York Sun on "The Worm and the President." The Sun painted the blackest picture of disaster certain to overtake the country, it : railroad Tegulsition. is continued (a picture that would cause every man to draw his last cent out of the bank if he be lieved it to be true) and closed with a threat to Mr. Roosevelt "that there is that which a devoUd nation holds in commqn with the humble worm' That editorial was the sort of challenge that Mr.. Roosevelt might be expected to answer. The people will look to see the trust evil receive no favors. These' be fine words of our President. When fol lowed by the deeds that bring, results, men of all parties will applaud. Either Law must reign, i as in the Court of Judge Landls and Judge Long, and big trust officials must an swer for their law-breaking as in Mr, Roosevelt's strong declaration, or the Trust is more powerful than the Gov ernment. ' Which)? The issue is drawn and clear-cut. "Under which King; Benzonlan, speak or die V RobSEVEIrS WORDS RING CLEAR. Mr. Roosevelt's words yesterday declaring that the worked-up panic would not cause (him to end prosecu tion of big viplators of the law, has the true ring. Let him life up to It and we will teach the trusts that they shall not, bestride America like a Colossus. If a Rockefeller can make a panic and ruin the country, if he is not permitted to violate: its law; without punishment, he is king of the country. It is high time that we should settle whether the trysts are bigger .than the government. Mr. Taft's speech Roosevlelt' emp ttoe' shows that he and same tune. JtodKETEUUER'b LATEST SIN One sin Is sure to ; follow another. One day last week an Interview was published from Mr. Rockefeller In that magnate and public cor- ruptlonjist predicted financial disaster and chaos. The interview l:Wa pub lished by the Associated Pressj The next day the interview was 4enlea Doubtless the associates of Mr. Rock- efeller In if saw that he hjad "put his foot and spoken in wrath after hearingf about the twenty-nine million dollar gave it jflne. Then Mr. Rockefeller out. or It was done by his au fhat the interview had never thorlty, been given out. The Associated Press gave wide pvbliclty to the denial. But it turns' out that the denial Ls false, and the New York World has established the fact that the interview did take place, and Mr. Stone, of tljie Associ ated Press writes the World that it retracts its denial. The World man who affirmed the intervievjr, says: "I cannot understand Mr. Rocke feller's ! repudiation of the ..interview. Nothing or the repudiation published here. The editor of the Plain-Dealer told m yesterday he. could hot obtain denial, although he had tried. "The interview cannot be (denied. It was given to me and to Horace Maren, of tne Cleveland Leader, ii told Mr. Rockefeller it was to be publisned. He begged me not to publish three things he had j told me and I kept faith. The interview took place at the Conclusion of a golf game, and lasted if ully two hours. ' He knew I was a Vorid re porter. T. B. HANLr." This is not the, first time? that men of great wealth and high; position have repudiated interviews. ; They seem to think that the reputation of newspaper correspondents, and , re porters is worth little, and when they see they have made fools r-of them selves by reason of their interviews, they hasten to deny that hey gave out the interview. Sometimes in sheer disgust at the wanton lying the re porter quietly permits the 'public to believe the interview did - not take place. . In this instance the World determined to go to the bottom; of the matter and has exposed the richest man in the world as f alselyn repud iat ing an interview that did take place. What do you think of that as the pious man to be held up for'approval, or to be apollgized for, or to have his violations of the law hainimized because he has given an hundred and thirty million dollars to colleges and churches mind you we do ttot say to education. Such money may go to churches and to colleges. Jt cannot touch education and rellgloh because they ar far removed fi"om the methods that touch and taint the Rockefeller money. ' "SOCDOLAGER" KNOCKED DO'VX. Referring to the "socdolar" ques tions .Speaker Justice put toi 'Exper Evans In New York, the World has I big head lines: "North Carolina Lav yer Hurls Bomb at Hearing." Tr hearing' is snowing that the :'expertsj' are experts only in glitteringi generali ties. Here Is one of Justlce'Sjqnestiorts that hit Expert Evans between tbJc eyes: A "Then tell us why. if I should chip hardware to Greensboro. N, C- the last 114 miles of the Journey should not be cheaper than the first ;1 14 miles of this same Journey if, asvOu say, longer hauls with full cars arsp cheaper in operating than empty cars; on short runs?" '2 ; What answer did the expert of the Southern Railway slve to that ques tion? Here it Is, as printed in the World: ; " '1 can't answer that question, for 1 do not want to sit here as an Expert.' "At this the members of the State Committee smiled, and the! Master asked the witness if he did not want to withdraw his earlier statement that he was an expert. " 'No, let It stand.' said the witness." SHOULD CELEBRATE NEW ROAD. The Wilson Times suggests that when the regular -schedule upon the Raleigh and Pamlico Sounii Is an nounced, whereby Wilson is placed In close conection with water trans portation at Washington and -with the State capital, Wilsori oughtj to hold a great celebration to commemorate the event It is a fine idea arid should be carried out. Wilson's growth In the past decade has been steady and remarkable. It should let its light shine out so all the world' can see its Importance. It should ,have a Harvest-Week or Day and celebrate the completion of the new rpad that will be the beginning of stfll larger growth and improvement. When : the new road is completed, Raleigh, too, should make it the oc casion for a Gala Day and fnvite all the people from Washington Green ville, Wilson and all other points along the line between Raleigh and Washington so that we may. get ac quainted with our nearer neighbors. What do you say, Chamber of Com merce, Merchants Association,; Indus trial Clubs and city authorites? Let all these unite and work together to make the completion of this impor tant road to Raleigh a f notable event. ; . No legislation worth anything ever goes through smoothly unless the peo ple are asleep and the laws please the trusts and the railroads. rOP TfIC MAN WHO WAHTS UKSUCrt COMFORT.
