THE movement Of freight on the
railways is always the surest indica-
1ion of business prosperity. The lack
of transportation facilities is becoming
a serious matter. The railways are
unable to meet the unprecedented de-
mand for freight cars and many lines
of business are seriously hampered by
the shortage. Railway officials claim
that they are doing everything in their
r,ower to handle the traffic, but that 1t
is impossible for the car shops to pro-
duce enough cars to take care of the
freight offered, although the work is
being rushed night and day.

Mres CLARA BARTON, head of the
Red Cross society which succored the
sick and wounded Of both sides during
the Spanish-American war, has been
officially thanked for her services by
the Spanish Cortez. A resolution will
probably be introduced at the present
session giving the thanks of Congress
to Miss Barton. A more practical
method of showing appreciation OF the
great services rendered by the society,
of which Miss Barton is the head,
would be to make a substantial appro-
oriation for the support of the work
carried on by them. The society is
now supported almost entirely by vol
a1utarv contributions and their work
for suffering humanity is often seri'
ously hampered by lack of funds.
To the surgeons, nurses and the
rninistering angels of the Red Cross
come none of the g1ories and rewards
of war, but they work for the suffering
and afflicted of all nations, peoples an6
religions with devotion to duty and
sacrifice of self unsurpassed by any
soldier in the field. That their work is
ever hampered by lack Of funds is {
reproach to the boosted civilization Of
the age, and Congress could make nt
better use of part of the surplus funds
at it's disposal than to use part of it ''t(

Much interest was taken In the hear
ing ON the bill of Assemblyman Burke
compelling railroad companies to pay
their employees semimonthly. The bill
was opposed by William p. Rudd. rep
resenting the New York Central rail
road, who declared that the company
he represented employed 39.931 men.

al impossibility to comply with -
provisions of such a law.
A letter from John b. Stnnchfield in

clared the adoption Of such bill
would work hardship on that road.

board of tax commissioners in its an

it is probable that during the current

pated that the constitutional require
ments Of small exaction for canal
bonded Indebtedness may be satisfac-
lorily provided for without any direct
tax levy. This will permit the state
board in its annual conferences with
the local assessors to puy more atten-
ton to equalization between tax dis
tricts and to give instruction to as
SCISSORS along the lines of local duties.
