LID ON MOSCOW

MOSCOW, Idaho, Dec. IA row

games have been notified to quit

selling pies of his own manufac-

fuel has become universal. And
the same answer is always return
ed, 'No cars!"
The railroads at first refused to
admit a car scarcity. They blamed
the fuel famine to the scarcity of
labor at the mines and in the for
ests. Driven from that position
they now assert that the business
of the country has grown to such
enormous proportions they are ut
terly unable to meet the demand
for rolling stock.

men at the head of railroad affairs
in this country have failed abjectly
in keeping pace with development
of the country.
The claim is absurd on it's face.
Railroad managers know to a dol

latter fuel in the absence Of coal.
This is the explanation of the
universal fuel famine now prevail
ing in the Northwest, given by a
Spokane dealer who claims to be
in possession of knowledge justify
ing such conclusions.
1t is a fact that every city from
far in the interior to the coast is
suffering for want of fuel. Seattle
is particularly hard hit. 1t has been
suggested in that city that the
mayor confiscate fuel in order to
end actual suffering for want Of
coal or wood.
Bins and yards are empty and
there seems to be no prospect of
relief. The same is true Of other
Northwest cities and towns. 1t is
also true of cities of the interior,
far east of Spokane. The cry for
