There is only one sentiment among
the people Of this community in regard
to the coal rates. and that Is that they
are exorbitana. The News" has re-
peltedly stated that coal ought to be
cheaper here than it is We have quot
cd the Denver prices and Vcntured the
assertion that we ought to have MT least
as cheap coal here as there. We nave
pointed out that without reasonable
fuel this region cannot become Il man
ufacturing center. our attitude on this
question is well known by our readers.
What Is to be done? Who Is respons-
ibla? Is there a combination in re-
straint of trade. and If so, can 1t be
proved? These are practical questions,
j anybody has evidence OF an unlaw-
full combination. that evidence
ought to be placed in the hands of the
Attorney general, In such Il way that
he can take notice of IT, To do this

would be more effective than grand
stand demonstrations.
We have it from unquestionab'e au-
,hority that only recently q coal dealer
admitted that he could sch coal at n
satisfactory profit 80 cents less than
The prices row ruling, but that he did
not dare to do So because he had been
notified that If he did lie would he
frozen out Of course. II Is barely
possible that If he were called upon, to
substantiate this assertion, he might
\, IL Otherwise
that statement alone ought to go far to
prove the existence of an unlawful
combination. Others may have heard,
or heard OF. similar pieces of evidence
If they We're gathered together they
might furnish q basis for an lnvestiga-
ton and official action.
Certain It Is that the situation calls
for some action on the part of the peo-
pie. or their representatives. some
thing should be done. and the right
thing should be done. Talk does not
help.
In looking over the late election re-
turns We find that there is a most re-
inarkabe gain in the Socialist vote
throughout the Country. In New \ OH.
for instance. the Socialists cast 65.ooo
votes. as compared with %s,Aol two
years ago In California. the Socialists
cast about $1,000. as compared with is'-
376 two years ago. In Indiana. they
cast 10000, as compared with 1916 two
years ago, and In Wisconsin, they cast
about o,C0G, as compared with :S,l4S
two years ago Similar gains are re-
corded elsewhere. This should be n
warning to the mnnipulators of prices
by tho killing of competition, that lhes
are not entirely safe. In Europe the
rapid growth OF Socialism Is regarded
as II protest against tyranny. 1t is the
same here. though the evil against
which 1t protests is differunt, rs the
despotism of greed Is different from
that of Imperialism.

years of his life in denouncing the err

Sheep Can Ride Free.

The practical and immediate value
of organization among the various
fsrming interests is we'll illustrated
by the experience of the recently
formed Somerset & Franklin County
Sheep Breeders Association. This
association was organized with the
assistance of Department of Agricul-
ture in April and as its first task un-
dertook to secure more favorable traf-
fic arrangements with the Maine Cen
tral railroad. The success of this eff
fort was immediate and complete
1t seems that in former years live
stocks of various kinds were trans
ported to and from the fall fairs by
the railroad without charge. The
success of these enterprises SO stimu-
lated passenger travel that the com
pany of course was more than COM
pensated for the concession. But
when the tariff schedules were re-
ysed a few seasons back, sheep were
for some unknown reason excluded
from the favored class.
AS the result of this discrimination
the exhibits of sheep were very much
reduced at all the fairs and this ap-
parent lack of interest, reached mos
unfavorably upon the sheep industry
Numerically this class of livestock
touched low water mark this pas
year, but all the indications point tc
turn of the tide. Those who have
continued in the business now feel en-.
thusiastic over the immediate out
look and the new association bears
witness to their faith.
E. E. Clifford of Canaan, is the pres
ident of the sheep breeders and his
first step in opening negotiations witt
the railroad officials at Portland, was
to procure all the information posi-
Bile in regard to the effect of theil
discrimination against sheep upon the
size Of the exhibits at the fairs. This
with other statistics was laid before

official saw the point at once. The
