Instance Indicating That Roads. Get All
That the Traffic VIII Bear.

President Stickney has said that the
railroads usually make their rates at
whatever the traffic will bear and re-
CARELESS of distance or the rates on a
corresponding class of traffic. A strik-
ing example of the unfairness of this
manner Of rate making has been IN
earthed by Hardware and Metal
which in its last issue says:
THE average shipper long since has
ceased to evince surprise at anything
a railroad might do or charge. Still
the shipper occasionally rams across
such fragrant examples of wronghead
edness as to excite his interest if not
his surprise.
''Such a case was recently brought
to the notice of Hardware and Metal
large shipper has been accustomed
to send quantities of crockery from
Hamilton, Ont, to St. John, n. B., pay
ing 81 cents a hundred pounds. A
short time ago he had occasion to send
a shipment of the same class to Ham
iltCn, Bermuda, and on his freight bill
discovered that the railroads charge
to St. John was 90 y cents because the
goods were going through to Bermuda
1T was seen that he could ship his
crockery through st. John and a
thousand miles over the Atlantic to
Bermuda q nd back again to St. John
for less money than if 1t was shipped
no further than st. John in the first

Pennsylvania's Reductions Create
Havoc in Trunk line Territory.

The Pennsylvania announcement Of
the reduction of passenger fares to
basis of 215 cents a mile has caused all
kinds of a rumpus with the eastern
lines. Immediately the passenger Off
cials of the other eastern lines got to
work to find out how much they would
have to reduce their fares to meet the
Pennsylvania's cut. The reduction will
affect not only the trunk line territory
but it will also affect rates in Central
Passenger association territory, and will
result in a reduction of standard fares
from Chicago.
These reductions will cause consider
able naixup on account of the differen-
tial fares which exist between Chicago
or St. Louis and New York. Wherever
the Pennsylvania s cut is felt i will dis
arrange the entire structure and will
disturb the relation between the stan
dard and differential fares Some of the
eastern passenger men began to hint
that this move on the part of the Penn
sylvania might result in the abolition Of
the differential fares.
The reduction in Chicago-New YORK
fares will be brought about through the
action of the Pennsylvania in selling
transferable 1000 mile books on the
lines east of Pittsburg for fiat rate of
cents a mile. Inasmuch as this affects
trunk line territory it is believed by
some of the passenger men that the
Buffalo-New York roads will have to
put in the same mileage books and in
either case the fare would work out to
s19SS, or a reduction of 81 cents.

Frank c. Smith, formerly superin-
tendent of the western division of the
Rock Island, and later general super
intendent of the Colorado Springs and
Cripple Creek District railway, has
been appointed assistant general man
ager of the San Antonio & Arkansas
Pass railroad, in Texas. Mr.. Smith
will maintain his headquarters in San
Antonio, and will be in charge of the
operating department. as we'll as of the
maintenance of way. Mr.. Smith came
to Colorado Springs in 1897 as super
intendent of the western division of the
Rock Island, which position he re-
signed in 1902 to become general man
ager of the Short Line. When the
Short Line was sold to the Colorado &
Southern last year, Mr.. Smith with
drew to lock after other interests. He

est, most diversified and most quan-
tative on record. Development in the
southwest Is remarkable. Several
weeks ago Mr.. Nixon made trip over
the st. Louis. Brownsville & Mexico
railroad. This, said Mr.. Nixon, is un-
questionably the best new line that he
has ever seen. The territory con-
uguous to the Brownsville line has ex-
ceptional capacities for development,
and already great profits are being
realized from cotton culture, vegetable
farming and other agricultural pur-
suits Mr.. Nixon is particularly en-
thusiastic about Texas The Browns
vile line is owned by a st. Louis syn
dictate, and it is still an independent
road. Members of the syndicate
frankly say that the line will be sold
some day to the large system that
offers the best price. B. F. Yoakum,
executive head of the Frisco. is presi-
dent of the Brownsville line, and is
individually interested in it. The ex-
pectation is that the Frisco viii ulti-
mately absorb the Brownsville line, as
it is a short route from St. Louis to
the important points in the republic OF
Mexico. and it has special strategic adj
vantages as a gulf coast road from
Galveston to the Mexican boundary
at Brownsville on the Rio Grande.

COMPLAIN OF AUTOS.
Smith County Farmers say They Drive
Too ReckIessIy.

Trustee Elmer Dilsaver was over from
Cedar township Monday. He came to
consult with County Attorney Reed
about the road law for automobiles. The
farmers complain of automobiles which
are driven recklessly over the roads
causing runaWays and making it dan
gerous to drive a team on the public
highway It is especially dangerous at
this time Of year when the men are in
the fields, leaving the women and chill
dren to drive to town.
It appears that under the new road
law it is the duty of the township trus-
tee to see that the laws Of the public
highways are respected. The auto has
come to stay and is increasing in num-
bers. It has some privileges on the
road, but they are restricted. 1t can
attain a speed of 10 miles an hour in
cities and 20 miles on a country road.
When a team becomes frightened it is
the duty of the driver of the auto to
slow down or stop. He must show that
he is doing all he can to prevent a
horse from becoming frightened and
take every preeaution against it. There
is complaint that the auto drivers do
not always do this, but to their credit
it is said some Of them do. An auto
must give all the road to a passing
team.-Smith Center Pioneer.

Funeral Service.
Pastor Talked Into a Large
Paper Funnel Receiver.
DECEASED POPULAR.
Many Friends Who Desired to
Hear Last Remarks.
Unique Event in the Annals of
Dickinson County.
DECEASED POPULAR.

Abilene, Aug. 3.-The Reflector says:
"A new use for the farmers telephone
was shown at a recent funeral near
solomon. The service was. because of
the prominence of the family, one of
much interest in this section and the
preacher was to be one Of the most
talented of central Kansas 1t was cas-
lily foreseen that the church could hold
but small portion Of those desiring to
be present and that for invalids and
those at a distance attendance would
be practically impossible.
A woman on farmers party line
offered a solution. Il am not able to
come in to the funeral" she explained
to central Cant you arrange it so
that I can hear the sermon she asked
of the manager of the lines.
The telephone company ran a line in
to the church and to the front seat di-
Tectly in front of the pulpit where a re
ceiver was placed with large paper
funnel facing the preacher and only a
few feet from him. AS he spoke he
talked almost directly into this funnel
and the wires carried the words to the
people along the farmers lines through
out the vicinity. By taking down the
receivers all the farmers could hear The
sermon at well as those IN the church.
The congregation was large in the
church and yet larger in the country
adjoining, making one Of the most
attentive and widely scattered gather
ings which the preacher ever ad-
dressed-certainly an unique event in
this county

and spoke two hours on the great in
dustries and resources Of this land and
the possibilities for rising that a young

1t was temperance day at the Chau-
tauqua and Governor Eoch made part
Of his address along temperance lines.
His audience was very attentive and en-
thusiastic freely applauding him
throughout his talk and desiring him
to continue when he started to close
Ex-Governor st. John followed Mr.
Hoch for a short talk. In the evening
Dr.. Robinson of Chicago gave an illus
trated lecture.
This has been the biggest day so far,
the receipts being $50 more than either
Monday or Tuesday when LaFol1ette
and Debs spoke. The weather has been
favorable and indications are that the
management will close up the session
away above their most sangufne expec-
tations.

ROCK ISLAND EARNS MORE.
Statement for Year just Issued Shows
Gross Gain of 18 Per Cent.


Earnings of the Rock Island com
pany of New Jersey from all sources
We're, for the fiscal year ended June
80, 1906, equal to 5.36 per cent. of the
preferred issue. The company, there
fore, earned the full 4 per cent. divi-
dend called for leaving a surplus Of
l.S6 per cent. The Frisco system
earned something better than per
cent on its common stock after all
charges. The policy of the companies
has been for the last year or more to
pay no dividends not absolutely re-
quired, and to expend the net income
in carrying out plans for the improve
ment of the properties.
The Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
system showed for the fiscal year an
increase of over $1,000, 600 in gross
business. This was equal to a gain
of Is per cent, and beyond the aver
age percentage of gain. The net made
of 81 per cent, or $3,155,5S9. The
Frisco lines did not do relatively quite
so well. For the fiscal year the gain
in gross was 9.3 per cent or $685.
602. The gain in net earnings was
$1,41S,T84, or 11.3 per cent. The gain
made by both systems, controlled by
the Rock Island company, was over
$10.000,00O in gross and over $4,500,-
600 in net.
The statement of the Atchison for
the fiscal year was better in the mat
ter of percentage of gain in net than
the Rock Island. though not SO good
in gross. The increase in the latter
was IA per cent. and in the net 80 per
cent. The gross business was SIS, 044,-

SUNDAY IN HILL CITY.
Sermons Morning and Evening With
Foot Faces and Ban Between.

Hill city, Kan, Aug, 3.-The capital
of Graham county is not bad place to
Sunday in. This is due to several
causes, one of which is the splendid
hotels Hill City affords. Then there
are churches of most all denomira-
tions.
One of the pleasing events of Sun
day last was that the First Baptist
church broke all previous records in
the Sabbath school attendance, there
being 100 present. Mrs. M. A. Dezel
is the superintendent. She win give
the school an outing in the Van Doren
grove because of the extra efforts of
the school to swell their number, and
make this the real record breaker Of
Hill City Sabbath schools.
At night there was union services Of
the churches. at which the several
pastors took part and made short adj
dresses Other entertaining exercises
was singing and recitation by Miss
