THE RIvALs-c. N. AND N. P. R. r


President Mellen, of the Northern
Pacific is having a fight with Seattle
in which the town is getting the worst
of it as regards improvements and
benefits, but the Seattle people are
getting back at the railroad corpora
ton by throwing all their business 20
the Great Northern. The Seattle
Times has been investigating Presi-
dent Mellen and his hostility to the
city and charges him with an attempt
to bulldoze Mr.. Hill, of the Great
Northern into making concessions TO
the Northern Pacific in the matter
of dividing the passenger business to
the east sold at the Union station.
Failing in this attempt and chagrined
at his failure, Mr.. Mellen set his wits
to work in an underhanded manner to
disrupt the agreement he had enter.
ed into and to defeat the plans of
President Hill for union station.
His success in this respect is already
too we'll known to require repetition
here.
For several years after the Great
Northern was opened for transcontin-
entail traffic there was a great deal
of rivalry between the road and the
Northern Pacific in the matter of pass
enger traffic. For awhile the older
road had decidedly the best of it.
But by putting on superior equipment
and by providing superior service ami
also by his extensive advertising in
manner SO effective as to open the
eyes of all his rival roads President
Hill gradually but surely gained upon
the Northern Pacific until few years
ago he began to forge ahead of that
road in the matter of the number IF
passengers handled and the revenues
derived from that class of the bus
ness.
Last year the increase in revenues
derived from the passenger business
on the Great Northern over those Ct
the year before amounted to 24.7 per
cent, while the increase of the North.
ern Pacific's passenger receipts was
only about II per cent. At this rate
of gain it is evident that it is only
matter of the continued growth Vt
popularity on the part of the Great
Northern and the unpopularity on the
part of the Northern Pacific until the
Great Northern will, en- account of its
superior equipment and shorter route
obtain the cream of the transconrin
entail passenger traffic.

Sufferers from this horrible n,a,ad,
nearly always inherit it-not necessar.l,
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its APP
pearance or swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and per1na-
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
of it driven out. This S. S. S. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
