THE CAPE TOWN "HOOTER. -
How the Receipt of News is Announced
to an Eager Public

How the Receipt of News is Announced
to an Eager Public.
Listen, is that the 'Hooter? All, ]
| wonder what news 1t brings" The
"Hooter' is at this time a great feature
in Cape Town life. 1t is the hope and
the fear of us all. And yet it is nothing
but the steam syren of 1.-THE Cape
Times" Printing works. which is sound
ed whenever any special war news is
received from the front. There are
many other steam syrens in town, from
workshops and factories, from the
transports that lie covering the surface
of Table Bay and from the railway
engines that ply their tireless way from
hot and dusty Cape Town to the cool
and pleasant suburbs, where three
great military hospital camps are
pitched, or to the very field of battle
itself in the far north. There are many
whistles, but there is only one "Hoot-
err" 1t has a peculiar bass note, which,
conquering the stiffest southeast wind
that ever blew to make life unbearable,
has grown familiar to ALL There is no
mistaking it. Its sound goes forth to
all the town, and our hearts quicken
and our pulses tingle with anxiety to
know whether the news be good or evil.
The well known blast may be heard
at any time between nine O'clock in the
morning and the same hour at night.
Some days it sounds often, then a week
or more may go by in silence. It has
not always the loud triumphant note of
victory. 1t has been the signal of much
sorrow to loyal British hearts. The city
that lies in the beautiful Table Valley
is not at it's ease: 1t is divided against
itself It has its citizens loyal and true,
many of them at hih moment proving
heir devotion by bearing arms against
the invaders of the Cape Colony and
Natal-but there are others to whom
British victory brings no joy, and to
whom Boer success means naught but
pleasure. But all young and old, rich

to secure greater traffic, which at times
can only be done at slashing rates, the
management is compelled to economic
in making needed Improvements and
the manufacturing interests depending
on railroad patronage suffer from loss
of business. The country as a whole
is always more prosperous when the
railroads are free buyers of all kinds
of material and supplies and are dis
tributing dividends among their stock
holders. AS agreements by officials to
maintain rates have proved valueless,
and pooling Is prohibited by law, the
method now pursued of bringing rail-
road ownership into close alliance, al
though expensive, appears to be justi-
fable
The plan, of course has it's sinister
side. Shippers cannot fail to regard
the tightening of railroad relations
with distrust, as it necessarily means
higher rates than those to which they
have been accustomed. Yet it is proba-
BILE that raes may not be advanced ma
terially. If the railroads can work
themselves into such a condition that
they can maintain present rates abso-
lutely, and are not obliged to make
heavy concessions to large shippers,
that in itself would mean a gain in their
revenues. If, however, an attempt
should be made to fix rates on consid-
erably higher level, much injury could
be done and many manufacturing and
producing interests could be placed at
a serious disadvantage. But safe
guard exists which can be brought to
bear should such contingency arise,
and that is the national and state con-
troll Of railroad rates. Years ago such
a safeguard did not exist. Further, if
railroad investments under the new
dispensation prove to be excessively
remunerative, competing Inns will as
suredly spring up. Capital is ever on
the lookout for such opportunity.--The
Iron Age.
