Go to Paris.

Charlemagne Tower, the American am
bassador to Germany, spoke of the Amer

gave in Philadelphia, says the Cincinnati
Enquirer
Our love of Paris is, no doubt, great"
he said, but l am sure it is not 80 great
as our European cousins would have us
believe. We all, of course, have heard the
European saying: When a good American
dies he goes to Paris In Berlin. from
a bearded French diplomat, / heard last
year a novel variant of this theme
1T was at dinner party IN Berlin.
The French diplomat, regarding me with
a smile, said he was sure l would sympa-
thize with the profound and ingenious
emotion of the young American girl whom
he was going to speak about She lived,
he said, in a bleak western city There
were in those days no Institutes for the
treatment of rabies or threatened rabies
save IN France. The young girls life was
ugly and monotonous, and one day she
burst into a neighbours house, almost be-
side herself with joyous excitement q
Her dark eyes flashed. Her cheeks hss'

as he still pondered over the question,
the hands OF his watch crept to half

in what appeared to be a lane or alley
behind the barn, neighed impatiently:
and. surely as he could hear the tick
of his watch. the beating of his own
heart, Benton caught the sound of a
low, grun voice almost directly under
meath his window. and then the dull.
sudden tramp of hoofs on rain-soaked
sod. Then-then there were two horses
or two parties-one in the dark lane,
one here almost at his feet.

ourselves? Suppose, for instance, that
we unite in making demand for a
square deal in rates, and at the same
time make known our intentions to
divert all of our business to that road
from which we receive or expect to re-
ceive most consideration, what would
happen? Something would give way
somewhere, but if the Johnson City
shippers were to stand by their agree
men. it would not be them. We might
have to go up against few disagreea-
BILE complications before we got
through, but eventually we would, if
we still continued to stand together,
get at least partial equalization of
our rates v ith those of Bristol. Even
now without any organized effort the
two railroads are willing to switch cars
most any place in the corporate limits
without charge, and have, at the sug-
gestIon Of the new line from Elizabeth
ton reduced several rates to Bristol
basis.
If If ali all this has come about without
any request or effort, how much more
can be accomplished by united aud
harmonious organization Of all the
shippers of the town, who, standing
shoulder to shoulder, would demand
fair rates for all lines of businets and
would demonstrate their willingness
and ability to divert all of their freight
The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1905-12-28

Johnson City would not be in the posi-
tion it is now, but our prospects are
decidedly better for improved freight
rates. In fact, l understand some OF
the more fortunate have succeeded in
obtaining better freight rates ON their
wares, and it is hoped that the trans
portation companies now here, and
those about to come, will increase the
facilities to our entire satisfaction.
AS an illustration of what we are con-
fronted with in freight rates; short
time ago, l, acting for certain interests,
requested of the Southern Railway that
johnson City be given the same rates
on grain from Ohio river points as the
Bristol rate, and / will read their
answer to the same:
Referring to your letter of Novem-
ber 10Th. 1 wish to advise that the
lowest rate we are in position to name
you on corn and wheat, carloads, from
Louisville and Cincinnati to Johnson
City is 25c per 100 pounds. This rate
should enable you to handle wheat
and corn to be ground in your new mill
at johnson City,"
In further explanation will say that
the rate to Bristol on grain from Ohio
river points is 15c per 100 ponnds and
as you will note the rate to Johnson
City is 25 cents per 100 pounds,
which rate prevents our company from
building our contemplated Touring
mill at this time but we certainly ex-
pect more favorable rate in the near
future.
The above is a fair condition of
freight rates now existing in our city.
That is, every rate from all directions
is based on Bristol combination. In
other words the rate is made to Bristol,
Va, and then we pay the local freight
