TIE INTERSTATE LAW.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-In October last
the Interstate Commerce Commission
sent circular letter to the railroads of
the country which come within the pro-
vision of the Interstate Commerce act,
asking them for information as to their
conformity to the law. Answers have
been received from nearly all the rail-
roads, and these answers furnish a very
interesting commentary upon the gen
eral operations of the law. The Inter
state Commerce Commission has just
printed and given to the public the an
swers of these roads. A look at these
answers shows that very small proper
tion of the roads admit that they find it
impossible to observe the law. Some of
them, however, do say that if compelled
to strictly follow the law their roads
will inevitably go into bankruptcy. The
Boston & Albany road says the same.
The Boston & Lowell says that its sys-
TEN is in entire harmony with the de
cision of the Commissioners with the
exception of the line between Portland,
Me-, and the West. The Burlington &c
Missouri River railroad states that the
long and short haul of the Interstate
law is respected, except as to California
business, where it is admitted that
that the through freight rates are lower
for the long than for the short haul.
The Burlington, Cedar Rapids and
Northern Railway Company takes
very gloomy view of the law and says:
This has been very serious loss to US,
In having to withdraw from competi-
tion in business which we have hereto

uniting in competition on our own line,

The Burlington and Northwestern
Railway Company says 1t may be in
order to state here that in maintaining
this long and short haul provision of the
Interstate law this company has been
obliged to surrender considerable pas
senger business to western points outside
the State of Iowa while its patrons have
been obliged to pay increased fares, or
suffer inconvenience from poor connec-
tions transfers, etc, incident to the

tariff has been framed in opposition to
the short haul principle of the law or to
any of its other provisions.
The Maine Central Road admits that
it makes some distinctions in its compe-
tition with foreign roads or with water
lines, but that it has not done anything
which is not authorized by the commits
sion in the matter of competition with
water carriers.
The New York, New Haven and Hart
ford Road maintains that it complies
with the law strictly, except possibly as
to rates of freight between New York
and Boston, and that competition with
water routes makes some difference.

Want of Sleep

Is sending thousands annually to the
insane asylum and the doctors say this
trouble is alarmingly on the increase.
The usual remedies, while they may
give temporary relief, are likely to do
more harm than good. What is needed
is an Alternative and Blood-purifer.
Ayers Sarsaparilla is incomparably
the best. 1t Corrects those disturbances
in the circulation which cause sleepless-
ness, gives increased vitality, and re-
stores the nervous system to heathful
condition.
Rev. T. G. A. Cote, agent OF the Mass.
Home Missionary Society, writes that
his stomach was out OF order, his sleep
very often disturbed, and some inn
purity of the blood manifest but that
perfect cure was obtained by the use
of Ayers Sarsaparilla.
Frederick w. Pratt, 424 Washington
street, Boston, writes: "My daughter
was prostrated with nervous debility.
Ayers Sarsaparilla restored her to
health"
William F. Bowker, Erie, Pa, was
cured of nervousness and sleeplessness
by taking Ayers Sarsaparlla for about
two months, during which time his
weight increased over twenty pounds.

day for balance of wages, amounting to
$32, as he claims. The suit was on trial
before Justice - yesterday, and il

When the farmer took the stand he
said:-

need sue me for what honestly owe.
What's your offset! asked the lawyer.
He's an unbeliever.

men in my employ, and we were rush
ing things when | hired this man. He
hadn't been with us two days when
they stopped the reaper in the middle of
the forenoon to dispute about Daniel in
the lions den, and in'three days we had
regular knockdown over the whale
swallowing Jonah. The man who run
the mower got to arguing about Samson
and drove over stump, and damaged
the machine to the tune of $lS. and the
very next day my boy broke his leg
while climbing the fence to hear and
see the row which was started over the
children of lsaael going through the
Red Sea. 1t wasn't week before my
wife said she didn't believe Elijah was
fed by the ravens, and hanged if | did.
MT find myself growing weak on Noah

if he was worth anything I'd sue him
for $1,000 besides"
