ON THE TRAIL OF THE PULLMAN OUTLAW MR. GEORGE S. LOFTUS of St. Paul, Minn., who. has put the interstate commerce commission on inquiry relative to Pullman car rates, is doing a useful public service, in line with much of his past work. Mr. Loftus, although at present a commission merchant, has expert knowledge of the railroad busi ness, gained while he was on the staff of a Minnesota branch of the Northern Pacific system. That knowledge he has put to good use in bringing to account the private car lines and other parasitic growths of the railroad system. He has now turned his attention to the Pullman company, the most greedy of all these parasites. Mr. Loftus has filed charges with the interstate commerce com mission that the rates for berths are excessive and, further, that it is unreasonable to charge as much for an upper as for a lower berth. It seems scarcely necessary to argue that point. Mr. Loftus submits figures by way of example. The journey between St. Paul and Chicago. is 410 miles. The Pullman price for berths is $2. Mr. Loftus submits that it should be $1.50 for a lower berth and 75 cents for an upper berth. Other instances in like proportion are given. On this basis the rate between San Francisco and Los Angeles, now $2.50, should be $2 for a lower and $1 for an upper berth. It is quite certain that the Pullman company will make, the customary fight to evade the jurisdiction of the interstate com merce commission. We shall be told once 'more that the sleeping car company is not a common carrier but an inn keeper, and, there fore, not within the commission's jurisdiction. There will be a court review of that question, and if judgment should go against the commission congress will be asked to enlarge the definition of common carriers, so as to include the sleeping car company. The customary attitude of this greedy monopoly is intolerable. It claims to be above and beyond the law; it is the worst tax shirker in the United States, and there are no obligations which it feels bound to respect when there is any profit in their violation.; . . THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ROOSEVELT THERE is some disposition among the unco' fastidious to find fault with the infinite/ variety of Theodore \u0084R oosevelt and his notable capacity for seeing two sides of a question. To the plain man it seems as if that way safety lies. If- Roose velt's sympathies are wide and his outlook not confined by passion or prejudice we shall not quarrel if N he assumes the whole, field of human knowledge and achievement for his province. A witty playwright puts in the mouth of one of his characters the statement that "the people have elected a desperado for presi dent and must take the holdup that follows." That, one may sup pose, is the polite. view of the rough rider. Yet in his speeches at Norfolk, Va., on Monday, one finds this fabled desperado elabor ating and expounding an almost complete scheme of ethics, with j rules for human conduct that include neither cutting throats nor' highway robbery. . -^v Now, this gentle and humane desperado finds a favorite theme in class consciousness. It is good and it is^bad. In the guise of patriotism we call it blessed and glorify its heroes. In the form of class hatreds, impelling and animating an angry domestic quarrel, it is accursed. Thus the president: V There are good and bad men in every walk of life, and their being good or bad does not depend on whether they have or do not have large bank accounts. Yet this elemental fact, this fact which we all accept as selfr evident, when we think each of us of the people whom he himself knows in his business and social relations, is often completely ignored by certain, public men and certain public writers. The men who thus ignore it and who attack wickedness only when found in a particular class are always unsafe, and are sometimes very dangerous leaders. Distrust equally the man who is never able to discover any vices of rich men to attack and the man who confines himself to attacking the sins and shortcomings of rich men. It is a sure sign of moral and mental dishonesty in any man if in his public assaults upon iniquity he is never able to see any iniquity save that of a particular class; and this whether he is able only, to see, the crimes, of arrogance and oppression in the rich or the crimes of envy 1 and violence in the poor. %*-J"?z, • There may be goodsin Mr. Richard Cornelius that Mr. Patrick Calhoun does not suspect, and vice versa. Bear ye one another's burdens is a message older than Theodore Roosevelt. These things that the president tells us are not new, but it seems they need renewed emphasis. It is a timely gospel of peace and brotherly love, expounded by a "desperado," if you please. LEARNING'S UNLEARNED PRESS AGENT NO modern university can be regarded as fully. equipped without a press agent and the really interesting thing is that, although employed by an institution of learning? and .the 'arts, the press agent is not subdued to what he works j in/ */ He is neither redeemed nor regenerated by his environment, and his disobedient, even rebellious, grammar continues its unseemly^ riot 'among, the parts of speech. ---...; \u25a0 •,\u25a0 These remarks are inspired by the advance notices \u25a0 supplied (with pictures) to the city press concerning the. forthcoming sum mer school at the University of California. These alluring-publica tions are so. closely similar as. to suggest -plagiarism to I one -not versed in the habits' of the press agent. To one] equipped'with' ttiaf useful knowledge the coincidence is explained [by the^ fact? that carbon copy notices were supplied by the same .man: arid used^by our contemporaries without -taking the precaution : to- censor -the grammar. . " \u25a0 . Thus we read that "the success of the* six weeks' period of ;study have beeii proved, by the records of attendance Jri 'previous* years'." It is a nice derangement of singulars '\u25a0"; and plural| -that' .HriyePa EDITORIAL PAGE man' to counting' things on his fingers and- thumbs.: Throughout the notice the construction is mucidy rambling^ -' The smear of the press agent's^thumblis over.it .all.-. Ayho/wouJ.d^notVshVdder^ if Mr. Victor Henderson were he? v-:: 7'X '/*??*-_';•?* The, university press agent labors under obvious disaci vantages compared with his brother in crime who .smells of the- footlights. The obstreperous proponent of the 'drama; not being of the* learned caste, bears no -obligations of grammar or consecutive statement, that he is bound to respect. Besides^ he can usually r embellish !\u25a0 his bold, disjointed chat with the picture d£ some pretty and attractive woman. The university press agent, a halting imitator, comes limping along at the tail end of the procession, with the counterfeit presentment of an old gentleman of plentiful whiskers in. melan choly mood, as well he might l^e, over his degradation to the base uses.of v the billboard! 'Twere; better the press agent' had printed a speaking likeness of Professor Howison's sometime philosophicai dog Seneca, for all the Senecas. have tramped or trotted their way to dusty -death .like other philosophers, and they need a monument such as a press agent might supply. .: ' The art of writing advertisements, is not simple. It is not safe to intrust the work to the common' literary blacksmith. The news papers are: liberal in 'giving space tot matter in .the interest of educa tion, and itis talking an unfair advantage of our 1 confiding nature to send us stuff that^coines with the hall mark of learning and yet might have been written in the slums. PRISON BETTER THAN A WHALING CRUISE THERE is not much encouragement for men to go on a^whaiing cruise when, after two or three yearsV hard work in the Arctic ocean, they come home in debt to the owners of the ship. That was the' fate of 'most of the crew of the whaler : Karlukj who brought suit for-damages in the United States district, court for breach of contract, starvation and cruel treatment. They got small damages, which were mostly offset by the debts; they; had : contracted on the voyage and at sailors' boarding houses, so that they have nothing to show for two years of the severest toil. It is said that regular: seamen no longer* sign for. whaling cruises and that an absplutely new crew mW berounded up^^for every voyage. Perhaps thelwhalers are men who want to rid .them selves of the drug or liquor habit ; it may be that they are adven turous spirits who want "to; know what, happens "north' of '53," or even, peradventure, they, are novelists in search of. local color. But why, not go to jail? s - ' "V T. W. Vernon of Ban Jose is at" the Hamltn. .' \u25a0 >\u25a0:"£<;• }; ; :'~'-=- : ";-- :' : - ''* ;'; ' R. H.

The basis for , this criti cism is that the railroads, by the re quest of the national educational asso ciation, will treat * the meeting as a fraternal' one, for which: special rates underHhe law are allowed for delegates only oh: a certificate, plan, and will call all attendants to, show certificates of membership in the national educational association; before the tickets will be validated , for their .return trip.

Modjeska played in the old California theater in its palmiest days and she is always a torn** here. Her home down in the southern California mountains, of which she was deprived through a financial reverse, was the mecca of many a pil grim's journey. It was in that mountain home that a horde of mdisent relations of Count and Countess Bozenta found refuge and^ where Fohsh exiles were given comfort and more substantial i relief. Modjeska made a pot of money by her starring tours, but her generosity and lavish hberahty diminished her bank account. She has always been a devoted patriot and has always given ready aid to her unhappy countrymen whenever approached for charity. In her memoirs she will doubtless have something of Sienkie wicV who mapped out "Quo Vadis," I have been told, when he was a member of the colony of Poles in California. " . _, , . ' Otis Skinner relates that when he was acting Otis Skinner and iQ « The Foo j' s Revenge" with Edwin Booth the Inanimate Lady j t f e u to him to carry the abducted daughter down the rope ladder. As Skinner was a mere stripling then and the lady was anything but a featherweight the stage manager decided, after a rehearsal in which the lad's limitations in the matter of muscle were revealed, that a dummy, would, have to be substituted for the heroine in this scene. One of the lay figures used in exhibiting a modiste's creations was procured, and the night of the first performance arrived. At the crucial moment Skinner ascended the ladder, Booth standing at the foot waiting the culmination of his revenge.- A stage hand passed the dummy over the balcony and Skinner received it, but in his eagerness he grasped it too low down and felt him self being overbalanced. "Self-preservation," says the star of The Duel/ "that primal law. of nature, asserted itself.' To keep myself from falling I let go the lady fair. Out in the air she shot, and on her head she landed. The audience which came to shudder remained to laugh." What happened next Skinner says he' prefers not to tell. ___. r» : it', isi Viola Allen may boast that she was a leading When Footlights woman on her first* appearance. I have heard Awed Viola Allen her f at her, C Leslie Allen, tell the story. He was playing Old Man Rogers in "Esraeralda" at the Madison Square theater. Annie Russell, who \va3 leading lady, fell ill and little Viola, who was" just 16, the age of the heroine in the play, was suggested as substitute. Viola had been about the theater a good deal, both her parents being of the profession, but had never been on the stage. She was delighted at the chance of testing her ability, for she had read the story and thought the heroine a darling girl. She did not, however, fully realize what was expected of- her. On the first night, when she took her cue and walked out on the stage she. was dazed to find the auditorium lighted up and full of faces instead of dark as at rehearsal. Fortunately her part did not require a spoken word until Esmeralda got quite close to the Old Man, who prompted her until she could pull herself together. Allen realized that his daughter was suffering from a bad case of stage fright, but his thoughtful aid averted a The Smart Set ONE of the pretty out of town weddings of the month was that of Miss Mabel Anais Watklns, V daughter of Mr. and - Mrs. A.
