bag of game brought in that night.

inflicted by the German Wilson tariff.

Bangor Commercially
When the Bangor & Piscataquis Railroad
was built $50 per ton was paid for iron rails.
The Bangor & Aroostook Railroad Company
has been paying 1924 per ton for the heavy
steel rails which have beec used in making
their road bed one of the finest to be fouad
anywhere. About this same difference in
cost has been found in all the materials en-
tering into the construction and equipment
of the road. The traffic possibilities of the
modern railroad on the other hand are so
much greater than were those of the old
line that no comparison can be instituted.
