CONFUSING
W. P. & Y. Local Tariff Sheets Hard to Decipher.

The Alaskan has poured eonsclentlouslv over the local tariff sheets of the w. P. X Y. in hopes that lt might furnish Its sub scribers with an idea of the difference be- tween the company's changes for freight transportation under the old and the new tariffs respectively between Skagway and White Horse and way points. The Alaskan must acknowledge its Inability to delye luedltv from the tortultlons labrvnths and confusing mazes of the classes, groups and mileage schedules between Skagwav and the Summit under the White Pass X Yukon letteret classification of the re- quired order numter as contradistlngulshed from the Canadian government numbered classification between the summit and White Horse which added together must produce the result of general tariff that killed the cat that ate the rat that ate the malt that laid In the house that Jack built. It's too deep for the present editorial ability of this sheet. Time works won' ders and the comprehension of these things may some day be arrived at.
