GOOD YEAR WITH |. E.& ".
FIGURES SHOW LARGEST EARNINGS
IN THE COMPANY'S HISTORY.
All Shopmen on Pennsylvania Lines
tween Roads and RaiImakers.

That the present will be the best year
with the Lake Erie & Western in its his
tory Is now settled. At the present time
the freight earnings are s437. 600 in excess of
those of 1902 and the passenger earnings
about 500. 900 in excess of those of last year.
If the company had the locomotives to ham
die the business offered the exhibit would
be even more favorable, but General
Freight Agent Sweet is confident that with
the earnings of December an increase in
freight earnings alone of about $4,000 will
be shown. which is, with the increase in
passenger earnings, handsomely in excess
of any former year. 1895 having been the
best previous year. The outlook for the
road for the coming year is very promising,
If the company gets the power expected
and the cars to move it. During the past
year 1000 freight cars were added to the
freight equipment, a like number will be
added in 1904 and the company expects 10
purchase some new passenger equipment, of
which it stands greatly in need. Trolley
competition has not rs yet cut seriously
into the arnings but in future will likely
do so, which will force the road to meet
the competition by reducing it's passenger
rates, which it may yet decide to do, al
though no definite action has been taken
in the matter: The officers of the road seem
much pleased with the result of the COM
pany's business during the year 1903, and
see no reason why a similar increase should
not be shown in the coming year.
Increase in Exports Due to Low Rates.
The Interstate-commerce Commission
yesterday gave a hearing on it's proposed
requirement that after Jan. /, next, the
tariffs on export and import traffic be pub
lished and filed with the commission the
same as domestic tariffs. A large number
of representatives of both the railroads
and the shipper attended the meeting.
The former contended that under the pres
ent system the shippers are better protected
than under an ironclad printed tariff, as
they now get the benefit of the lowest COM
bination rates among the various ports,
which are secured from the steamship
companies from day to day b. the railroad
agents and are available to shippers who
inquire. The railroads commended that that
of rates as published tariffs on domestic
traffic. They explained the methods of
the steamship companies and the compe-
titiOn of the various ports with the re-
sulting constant changes thai make the
filing of the ordinary published tariffs in
advance impracticable as to export bust
ness. Some of the shippers contended that
the railroads as common carriers owed the
public stable and uniform rates on this
class Of traffic. President F.. b.. Thurber,
of the United States Export Association,
commended that the proposed rule would
hamper trade and be impracticable and that
the rapid increase in export trade has been
due to low and elastic railroad rates.

| At a negro mass meeting held
in Washington last Monday, in
Lincoln Memorial Church, ad-
dresses were made by prominent
negroes upon the question of dis
franchising the black race in the
South and great deal of inter-
est was manifested at the remarks
of the speakers, especially to those
of James Hayes. This negro
Hayes is close friend of Presi-
dent Roosevelt and has been Ce-
tanned by the negroes of Virginia
to test the disfranchisement laws.
In his speech he declares that the
| negro has reached the limit of his
endurance and advocated the
sword and torch as means for the
negro to maintain his manhood.
Many other incendiary and intem-
perate declarations were made by
other negroes present and much
excitement prevailed. BY publicly
recognizing the negro as the equal
of the white man, socially and po-
litically, President Roosevelt has
gained the contempt of the Amer
lean people. The recent reception
at the White House in which he
endeavored to have negro men and
women mingle together with the
white people present has done
much to aggravate the insolence
of the vicious class of negroes in
the South and unless he changes
his policy the result will be race
wars all over the South in which
the negroes will surely get the
worst of it. The President has re-
ceived the condemnation of every
good white Republican, especially
in the North, and his appointment
of negroes to Office is looked upon |
as the downfall of the Republican
party. The Daily States of Tues
day in regard to the actions of the
President, says: "He has gone in
for the negro head over heeis. He
has made himself one of them, ,and
by SO doing has stirred into flame
their animosity to the white race,
but the white people Of the South
are prer ared to meet the situation
he has deliberately created for the
purpose of getting negro votes and
will quell his black allies and his
social equals with the hard hand
of the Anglo-Saxon and not the
puffy fist of the Knickerbocker.
president Roosevelt has made
his bed with negroes and he lies
down with them. He has pro-
claimed them to be his equally
socially and in every other res
pect, hence there is nothing left
for self-respecting white people of
the South to do but regard him as
the equal of the negro and treat
him accordingly. His acts have
shown that the ''half Southern"
part of himself of which he has
frequently boasted is of decided
|y Senegambian hue"
