The great Mackenzie river, the
mightiest stream on the American con-
tinent, excepting only the Mississippi,
has never been traced to its head, and
up to the present time the source from
which it issues has only been known
from Indian report. The mystery has,
however, now been solved by r. q. Nc.

THEY CAN BE REGULATED.

Justice Brewer of the Uni ed States
supreme court has decided that the
maximum freight rate law of Nebraska
is constitutional, but declares that the
rates named in the law are too low,
He therefore orders that the rates re-
main imperative until such time as the
earnings of the railroads will justify the
proposed cut In rates.
The Nebraska law has been sus-
pended iu the courts year and a-half,
the reduced rates having never been
put in force. Judge Brewer decides
that the proposed cut in rates would
have been unjust and unreasonable be-
cause railroad traffic has declined
enormously the past two years. But
all other business has declined pro-
pOrtionately and the farmers and
laborers especially have been obliged
to suffer enormous reduction in their
incomes from wages and prices Of pro-
ducts. In Iowa reduced rates resulted
In increased traffic and increased net
earnings, Justice Brewer tried by all
means In his power to defeat the Iowa
law but failed,
Railroad managers have great reason
TO be elated over Brewers decision. As
they have the disposition Of traffic earn.
ings they have only TO see TO II that
those earnings are consumed up TO a
given point aud freight rates need
never DO lowered except by such com
petition as cannot be forestaled hy the
railroad pool.
