isla,ipn for Federal control OF railroad
rates. Daniel Davenport. of Bridge
port. Conn. has been engaged as coun-
sci. and he has communicated with
Senator lIlltinS and Representative
Hepburn. He claims that during the
las, year the railroads carried $500 600
people 100 miles for s. apiece. raceiv-
ing for this service sS0.OO0,O00 less
and equipment. He also asserts that
lisr railroads carried 1.1l3.00O tons OF
freight distance of 100 miles for 7G:;
cents Il ton. He estimates that the
owners OF railroad property received
in the aggregate $4.34 earnings on each
500 invested, and that the reduction
Of Ito OF L cent per Ton Of freight per
mic would wipe out all the interest
Of the stockholders. while the reduc.
ton Of another mill and a half would
eliminate the interest paid the bond
holders, thus utterly destroying the
value Of the property. lie claims that
the people VINO own the stocks and
bonds OF our railroads are the poor de
positors in savings banks VT
We cannot believe that a law rc.u-
latinS freight rates would bring disas-
ter upon the poor dcpositors in the
savings banks. II the average railway
comDany's stocks and bonds represent.

owned there could be no complaint in
regard to charges sufficient to show a
reasonable profit What the average
citizen objects TO is paying freight
rates which show a dividend on stocks
more than half liquid and which en-.
able Tic companies to furnish rebates

There should be no connection be-
tween freight rates and charity Let
Us deal justly with our railways and
demand in return 4 fair deal for every

A "PHlLlsTlNE" on COLLEGE ATA
LETiCS.

The important fact that twcnty-six
men have been killed playing football
in Il season OF three months just past,
fifteen OF whom died from broken
necks. and that many others have been
rupturcd Or permanently injured, is
male the basis of a terrific assault on
this sncalled American sport by Ell
bert Hubbard. in the January issue of
the philistine. He says the curious
part is that all this deadly brutality is
product Of our schools ana colleges,
which, instead OF producing culture
maintain All unmanly sport that would
have made even the ancient Romans
stand aghast. He goes SO far as to say
that no young man can play the game
without being less OF a man and with
out taking on the Instincts OF a brute.
lie thinks the reason Why colleges sup.
port football is because they are an
imitation OF life. places where young
folks are supposed TO be getting ready
10 do something" He concludes that
the practical world has no use for foot

formed as to eliminate some OF its

Will come true. In practical world

Fares Arc Low II You Arc Up to the
Tricks OF the Drivers.

IN 40 European country are cab

Is no tariff at all. On the rank are
half q dozen drivers on the boxes OF

and With just room FOR two II the two
clasp waists after the RUSSIAN mode.
II you know just about how far you
want to drive you take the first driver
md tell him where YOU want to go ana
what is the price offered. The Ell
Quette is followed invariably. The
driver throws UP his eyes in horror.
He calls upon the saints to witness
that SO ridiculous II price must be t!ou-
bled before he could look at it.
You are not deceived. You walk on.
And before you have gone ten PAGES
the cablnan is after YOU. pointing po-
litely to the seat in the drosky and.
with u grin, repeating frequently the
Russian equivalent for '.pleuse.
But II you are driving to destina-

essary to ask the opinion of the first

the box OF droskv. Then it is your
