EXCESSIVE RATES.
Express Company's Rates are
in Need Of Revision.

During this extraordinary
season of agitation along trans
portation subjects. p cent
fares, reduced freight rates. re-
ciprocal demurrage, and 80 on
the wayfarer searches in vain
for any solonistic remarks con-
cerning express rates. Sup
pose we investigate this sub
ject, you and I, just for the in
terest of it, not, of course, with
any suspicion, much less hope,
that the legislatures now in
session throughout the nation
will for moment think of lay
ing aside politics long enough
to consider question 40 inn
portant to everybody, or try TO
correct an evil 80 glaring in it's
actuality.
Three cents a mile is much
too high for car fare; the atti-
tude of the railroads toward the
transportation of Ignite coal is
an outrage, but the rates
charged by the express COM
panies are both of these rolled
into one, and not only that, but
so absurd that one is reminded
of Barnum's famous epigram,
"The American people love to
be humbugged
Here are few facts:
1t costs at least 40 cents to
ship a hundred pound trunk
from Grafton to Voss. A man
could ride the same distance,
on the cushions, for 25 cents,
and have $50 pounds of bag
gage checked and carried free
on the same train that carries
the lesser property of his neigh
Dor, who paid 40 cents because
he did not have time to 20 to
Voss himself.
Such short distance, did
you cay? Wrong again. Read
this one:
The express rate between
here and Fargo is $1.75 per
hundred. The distance is 118
miles. 1t costs the News and
Times $3.50 to ship a 2O0-pound
package of paper from Fargo
to Grafton. A 20O.pound man
could ride the same distance
for 1856. He could have a
whole seat to himself, usually,
could wipe his muddy feet on
the cushions in front of him.
spit on the floor, cuss the con-
ductor as much as he pleasea-
and be treated with marked
politeness. He would take up
more room than ten packages
of paper of the same weight.
The rail.oad COMPANY. after
feeling~of his 1855 would joy
ously send a 150-pound pack
age of paper along with him
free, providing the package had
a handle on it. If the man did
not get to Fargo in good condi-
ton the railroad would pay him
or his sorrowing family any
where from five thousand to
fifty thousand dollars. IF the
News and Times package of
papers got lost the express
company would pay us So, after
we had spent $1S worth of time
and patience convincing them
that we ever owned package
of papers.
1t would cost you rs cents to
send a pound package of mer-
chandise to Cashel BY express.
Maybe if you told the express
agent exactly what your
opinion was of his ancestry, he
would come down to 18 cents
the ounce rate Yau could send
the same package from Ger
many liberation 10y mail for II
cents, and have the: satisfaction
of knowing that i. would get
there before the recipient died
of old age.
