REMEDY FOX CAR SHORTAGE.
Large shippers v"cI in Chicago tc
Discuss MGIhOds.

Chicago, Jan. "A con ,iderabl
number of the larse shippers turolgh
out the country, representing various
industr es gathered in Chicago todAy t
discuss the car shortage problem. TIE
iumbermen'S assoc atjons took the
anitiative in bringing them together tt
exchange ideas and to reconmend in
formally some solution. The majority
appear in favor Of federal legislA ION
penaizing the railroads for failure t.
deliver cars rsquisitionei by shippers,
after reasonable time.
In calling the gathering to order the
chairman exp aimed the chief purpose
OF the present movement to be to sec1e
she enactment o, a teueIal law requiring
the assess meat anl p y ment OF recipro-
cal demurrage. Under such law, the
speaker futher X 3Hained, the railroads
themselves would Be penlljzrd for fall
iDg to provide shippers with cars within
a reasonable time after their requ ustlon,

said, wo I'D go long way toward re-
Heving the car shO tase now existing,
and would p9rvent lis recurrence and
the enormous accompany ing | sses in
the future.
The speakers explained that the pres
ent movement is not inlmical to the
railroads themselves. but to the Car
service abuses which they have allowed
ta grow to euch enormo Gus proportions.
For years the roads have enforced rules
to exact demurrage from shipp. rs for
failu!et> |, q cars within a reasonable
time. This was generally recognized as
iusr and calcul sted TO secure prompt
shipment and more satisfactory car
bsryice, and the right of the roads to
exact dsmu- age under resonable rules
has seldom been Questioned. But when
she roads themselves fail 10 deliver ears

shipments a~e DELAYED for weeks and

The coal and lumbe trades are lead

Present CONDITIONS ia me lumber trade,
especially in the south and west, are
said to be deplorable. The car shortage
problem is causing enormous financial

The Priced Alfalfa

II has been proposed in the coustitu-
uonal convention OF oklahoma Territory
that the alfalfa plant be adopted as the
floral emblem OF the state OF Oklahoma
TO take the place Of the mistlotoe. which
at this time is the statutory floral en-
blem. 1t is natural enough that the peo-
pie Of the far west should hold the al
falfa plant in so high esteem. the plant
which made the western desert. once as
bare as mans hand, bloom with YER
dure.
only the other day the death was re-
ported OF Harrison Parkman, the man
who first brought alfalfa from South
America and planted 1t in the United
states. Europe had cultivated this plant
for 1re than 2oo0 years but It was
brought into the United States for the
frsS time in 1854
H. material way alfalfa has been the
salvation Of the farmers Of western Kan
sas and Nebraska, and of Colorado. New
Mexico. Arizona, and indeed of all that
vast section Of country which once was
described as The Great American Des-
ert.' Alfalfa produces heavy crops twic,,
and three times year. and in the form
or hay alone II enjoys a very high value
II Is cultivated on soil which will pro
du6e nothing else, and ii demands only

A Good Example Of a Vermonter.
barre Times, Feb. ISL

Vermont delights to do honor to her
reverend ex-governor Frederick Holbrook
of Brattleboro who today reaches the
age of "a years. With record uustained
and with so many years of usefulness, he
is a man of whom no i'll can he said His
most distinguished service to the state of
Vermont is the noble example OF citizen
ship which he has set for generations to
copy after: but the service which per-
haps brings him more forcibly before the
public eve is a term as governor Of the
state when II took courage and intelligent
initiative. In neither OF these was Gov
ernor Holbrook lacking. when in 1861 he
was elected to the highest position in the
state. at a time when the nation was
being plunged into the throes OF a fra
tricidal struggle. His action as Vermont's
war governor was characterized by
tirmness and perspicacity. 1t Is said that
Vermont was through his efforts the first
state in the North to provide hospitals
for its wounded and sick soldiers. show
ing the power Of initiative which he pos
sessed. But it is not alone for his public
career that Vermont honors Governor
Holhrook but for his private citizenship
as well. 1t is the earnest wish Of all that
he may live to be honored many more
years.

spoke Of him as having been for more
than half a century connected with the
Vermont Savings bank Of Bratueboro. and

that institution.
We doubt II there are many examples
OF a better preserved man than Gov Hol-
brook, who is said TO have attended the
annual meeting Of the bank last month
and as its president, presided at the
meeting Well may the governor quote
that beautiful stanza:
Il feel like one who treads alone
Some banquet hall deserted
Whose lights are fled; whose garlands
dead,
And all but me departed"
The purity Of the governors life. public

and Vermont with united voice joins in
hearty congratulations and in the earnest
wish that a kind Providence may vouch-
safe many happy returns Of the day to
