Smith County Farmer Pays Oft Back
Debts W ith a Thresher.
Jake Briles pulled home last Friday
with his steam thresher, and after
storing it away, paid off his help and
closed the threshing season in these
parts. J.ike has done something that
few men can do made a thre-shing
machine pay. Five years ago he
plunged into debt $4,500 for his big
outfit and many were the predictions
that h would go broke. But Jake is
a bustier attd right from the start he
pushed ' things. He started off right
by hiring Charlie Turner, the best en
gineer anywhere near here, and hold
ing onto him every season since. There
is a lot of hard work and hardships
connected with a thresher's life but
Briles was always in the thick of the
fray... Today lie has on hand enough
cash to pay every cent he owes and a
little surplus of $400. Besides he has
paid for a large amount of improve
ments on his farm from the proceeds
of his work with his machine. Smita

Gossip and Matters of Interest
in Itailroad Circles.
New York, Oct. 19. The Railroad Ga
zette gives, In Its current Issue, an in
teresting account of th new interstate
commerce act. It asserts "that the law
has already effected benefits. The prin
cipal features of the comment follow:
The principal subjects dealt with by
the act seem to be four in number: The
abolition of dishonest rates; the read
justment of rates which, though open
and honest, are shown to be unreason
able and improper; the regulation and
standardization of reports and accounts,
and, last, the enforcement of through
routes and Joint rates. To deal with
these four subjects seriatim:
It seems a strong thing to say that
the mere passage of the law has al
ready effected the first purpose, name
ly, the abolition, of dishonest rates. But
such inquiry as we have been able to
make tends to show that the state
ment is not too strong.
We have found among railroad offi
cers a consensus of opinion that rebates
are dead. "Certainly," say they, "there
are none being given on our own road;
we do not believe that they are being
given by other roads."
Further, we find a very general belief
that they are not only dead but will
stay dead. For this expectation, which
is, it may be noted, too optimistic for
Wall street to share it, various reasons
are given. The main reason is that both
railroad men and freighters have shared
in the moral awakening that has affect
ed the whole country and have come to
see that the giving bf secret rebates is
a pretty mean form of cheating.
, But it is further said that railroad
men are now realizing for the first time
that with the support of law business
can be carried on without rebates, and
that to grant them Is not merely a crime
but a blunder. And, lastly, it is pointed
out that the prospect of fine and impris
onment is a real deterVenti. The admin
istration. it is assumed, would like noth
ing better than to put a rirominent. rail
road man in jail.' And if he gives re
bates he stands an exceedingly good
chance of getting there'.'. :;
For in some cases at least It has been
openly declared by railroad officers that
if any evidence of the giving fif rebates
is found it will be promptly passed on
to the Interstate Commerce commission,
though' in one instance a preminent offi
cial admitted that he. would probably
warn his rival and give him a chanca
to amend his ways bef.org handing him
over to- pubiic justieel ...So far. then, as
rebates are concerned we sum up the
Situation" bT"Tj li'S "Hint the iallroad
are on the side of law and honesty; the
would-be law-break'erir' have disappear
ed; if thev reappear their colleagues
will, with the help of "ihe drastic powers
of investigation possessed by the Com
mission, suppress them.
The second- subject,;-that of rates
which, though open "and honest, may
yet'be held on "various gTounds to be
unreasonable, is a, much more diff icult
one. In thg past it dan not toe; sa4d
that all the decisions of the conrmls
elon have been conspicuous for their
wisdom. On the other hand, it must
be admitted that the railroads have
often neglected opportunities to make
them wiser.
Sometimes the -railroad men have
adopted an attitude of open hostility;
more often an attitude of contempt
uous -superiority. We have even
heard it suggested that the compara
tive Intelligence and. authority of the
railroad president and the railroad
commissioner might be measured in
the ratio of their respective salaries.
The day for this is, we hope and be
lieve, past.
The powers of the commison have
undoubtedly been enlarged; the courts
will presumably treat their decisions
with more respect than hitherto.
Moreover, the commission seems in its
recent actions to be inclined to show
the gentleness of conscious strength,
modified still further by conscious lack
of knowledge. It apparently will en
deavor in future to guide the railroads
rather than drive, them. And the
wiser men in the railroad world are,
we think, prepared to be guided.
Now the commission represents the
man In the street. - But It also can
understand -the strength of the rail
road case.
In tha matter bf account keeping
there is even more positive ground for
hope. In Its eagerness to stamp out
secret rebates congress has gone so
far as to enact that "it shall be un
lawful for carriers to keep any -other
accounts, records or memoranda than
those prescribed or approved by the
commission," a provision which, in the
hands of an unreasonable body, might
have plunged many accounting de
partments in the country to chaos. The
commission has. already notified the
roads that It approves in advance all
the accounts they are keeping at the
present time, and has shown its . de
termination not to make any changes
without ample deliberation and full
consultation with the-officers of ,the
roads themselves.
We have left to the last the discus
sion of what may hereafter prove to
be the most Important of all the pro
visions of the new act, saction 4,
which for the first time empowers the
commission to establish through
routes and Joint rates and prescribe
the division of such rates. There is, it
is true, a limitation on this sweeping
power In the words, "provided no rea
sonable and satisfactory through route
exists." This raises the interesting
question, what Is a through route? In
English law and English and Ameri
can railroad laws are quite alike, the
actual words being often borrowed by
the one country from another, a
through route is a route over the
roads of two separate companies. -
