Once a, denizen of the upstate re-
giOns, where whiskers grow in plenty
and umbrellas bulge at will, decided to
visit the bewildering metropolis quite
as a man of the world-nOt to be taken
in by the wicked men, who, as, he
understood, made a business of deceiv-
ing the guileless up-stater. Hence he
arrived at the Grand Central looking
very. very wise. and proceeded, first
of all. to visit the collection of wax
figures at the Eden Musee. He was
engaged in looking critically at one of
the most lifelike groups on exhibition
there, when a policeman suddenly
plucked him by the sleeve. The up
slater turned. "You mustn't smoke
in here" said the policeman, severe
". A look of wisdom beyond the
power of words to describe came over
that up-stater's face. Continuing
brazenly to smoke, he remarked:
"Tut, tut. Go away. Don't you
think | know that you re made of
wax?'

! cargOes. 1t, to me, is perfectly OBJ
viOus that the Americana Hawaiian
Company has been forced into this ad-
vance Of rates.
The almost nervous interest in the
conduct of the Observation-Disclosures
| Company is due largely to the fact
| that in its few years of existence it
! has proved a wonderful factor in West
ern commerce. The company began
somewhat modestly with a small fleet
of vessels. Its growth was prodigious,
however. and within few years it
has acquired an immense fleet of
steamships. ranging in tonnage from
the Nevadan. 5000. to the Alaskan,
10000. In 1907 it added to the fleet
the Maine and Missouri, two 1900
ton vessels. which were purchased
from the Atlantic Transportation Com
PAW. At the time of this purchase
three steamers were building, the Mex
lean. Columbian and Isthmian. These
have now been added to the feet,
which has an aggregate tonnage of
more than 100000.
The Tehuantepec Route.
Last year the company performed
the well-n nigh marvellous feat of con-
oh 20
Tehuantepec to New York in less time
than the shipments could be made by
rail. With such excellent service and
such adequate facilities for handling
traffic, the company soon made it's in
fluence felt by the railroads, especial
" by the lines which dominate the
Western country.
BY the perfection of it's Tehuante
pee route it was enabled to develop
an enormous commerce, which took
millions of dollars from the transcon-
tinental lines. A triangular service
was maintained from Salina Cruz. the
Hawaiian Islands and Pacific Coast
ports. In addition a fleet was kept in
the Atlantic to carry freight from
CoatzacOalcos, the Gulf terminus of
the Tehuantepec National Railroad, to
New York and other ports on the At
lantic seaboard. A fabulous income
was derived from sugar movements
from the Islands and a splendid pat
ronage was given the company in east
bound and west bound shipments of
freight from the Pacific to the Allan
tie and vice versa.
Consequently, the company became
distinguished as an independent fac
tor in the development of the West.
Shippers have regarded the threaten
ed advance Of rail rates as its greatest
for growth and profit and
the security of its independence. For
these and other reasons they seem I'M
able to fathom voluntary increase of
rates by the company and give ex-
preston to alarm and apprehension.
