After waging a bitter battle for companies which are now proved to have been guilty of collusion and conspiracy, the papers might at least have the grace to exercise some of the "fair play" about which they set up such a lusty howl. Fortunately, the evidence is so incontrovertible that it does not need editorial elucidation; no one with the energy to look through it can fail to see the justice of the government's action.

The company is an affiliate of the Electric Bond and Share Company and represents an investment of about two hundred million dollars; consequently there is bound to be a terrific howl raised in Wall Street for American intervention, and the bankers will doubtless seize this opportunity for pressing their claims on Mr. Roosevelt. Even more serious is the news that the Cuban government plans to take over in the same summary fashion the United Railways Company which is British owned. Should this...
