Railroad News
MINIMUM WEIGHTS
ARE DISCUSSED
CLASSIFICATION BOARD coNsID-
ERs PLANS TO BENEFIT BOTH
SHIPPER AND cARRIER-SUR-
JEcT IS ONE THAT HAS LONG
BEEN CONSIDERED.

The fixing of minimum weights on
light and bulky articles has been the
subject OF much weighty considera-
ton by representatives of eastern,
western and southern railroads in New
York. These representatives comprise
the executive committee of the uniform
classification organization.
The subject is one that has been
before the railroads Of the country
for long time, but there has been a
great difference of opinion as to how
the classification should be made,
especially as between the different sec
tions Of the country.
The uniform classifications commit
tee has recommended that the basis
be the cubic contents instead of the
lineal size Of the car as has been the
custom. The varying heights of cars
make a wide difference in the carrying
capacity, even between cars of the
same lengths, and 1t is deemed unrea-
sonable to apply the same rule to two
cars.
The railroads, as a general rule, fav-
or a Reconsideration as they recognize
the advantage to themselves as well as
the shippers. The interstate commits
sion is also in favor Of such a change.
Eastern railroads have never IA
vored the high cars and have made
the minimum on them so high in some
instances as to practically prevent
their use. Should a uniform classified
ton be adopted it would be welcomed
nv MANY rP tho yuastarn roads II 10
thought, because it would then be pos
sible to send cars of all sizes to all
parts of the country.

THE SAN ISABEL.

Undoubtedlythe San Isabel com.
pany has lot of mighty good
handsome of the finest acres in
the Valley, in fact, but just the
same the News contends that
when it is cut up into tiny tracts
it would be valueless for farming
purposes, so far as the man who
tries to operate on five or ten acres
is concerned.
There are about 1900 acres
which the company proposes to
dispose of.
The promoters have made no
preparations for reservoirs, and do
not intend to construct any irriga-
ton works.
The company proposes to sell
2,75O contracts at $2O5 per con.
tract, divided in the following
manner-that is to say, the land is
so divided: Two thousand five
hundred and fifty-six five-acre
farms, $50 ten-acre farms, twenty
twenty acre farms, fifteen forty
acre farm, five eighty-ac farms,
two l6O-acre farms, one 32O-acre
farm and one 64O-acre farm.
The contract reads: with each
tive-acre, ten-acre and twenty acre
farm the contract holder will re.
ceive water right for the irriga-
ton of the same"
In other words, the forty, eighty,
hundred and sixty, three hundred
and twenty and six hundred and
forty-acre tracts get no water
rights.
II the contract holders who get
those tracts want to farm they will
have to get the water the BEST
way they can, by purchasing 1t
from the others, or by digging ar
tesian wells.-Denver News.
