INCREASED FREIGHTs.

II the testimony of. Mr.. Barlow as
to the effect Of the proposed increase
on freight rates is literally true, then
we think that the increase should not
be made.
He declared the proposed advance put
"A per cent of the burden on the first
class freight and that substantially 10
per cent of the burden rested on ship
pers OF first, second and third classes
of freight. He estimated that substan-
TALLY 10 ITO of the total railroad ton
mage in the territory affected would
bear the burden of the advance
He also said that substantially So per
cent of the total increase would be on
class rates and 10 per cent on com
modify rates. His contention was that
the big shippers would not bear as
much of the burden as the small ship
pers and that the shippers under class
rates during the past decade had con-
tributed their full share of the pro-
posed increased rates.
These statements were controverted
by the railroad representatives. especi-
ally the assertion that any increased
freight rate always fell on the consum-
err. This was questioned by Chairman
Knapp, who asked the witness how
he figured that an increase of less than
5 mills on pair of shoes when the In
crease of freight rates promised gem
eral prosperity" would be reflected on
the price OF shoes n man wore.
AS this point seems to be merely a
question of fact, it would be settled by
investigation Certainly the public Will
object to the placing of any further
burdens, in way OF higher prices, on
the consumer.

STREET CAR SERVICE.

The decision of the Alabama court
that the street railroad companies have
the right to make reasonable rules re-
garding transfers, must be regarded as
very sensible law.
The court said that the right OF street
car companies, through their officers
and servants. to make reasonable rules
existed independently of the statute
givin. them this authority. and that
the authority thereby given was not
the delegation of authority to legslntc,
but merely reiterated the right of the
officers TO make reasonable rules in and
about the conduct Of the business OF u
public service utility.
The first transfer rules here, after the
reorganization of the street railway
company. were ut least inconvcnient.
even If reasonable: and their suisse
quent modification. which has gone
barely far enough. was a wise conces-
sion on the part of the company.
The desire of the company to have the
cars make good time is very gratifying
to patrons; yet good time does not con-
sist wholly in fastening through the
crowded center of the city's populn-
ton and then lettering for from four to
eight minutes at the terminus, as many
of the ears do. WHY not run oftcncl'
and abolish the long periods of standing
stlll AT the ends OF the line?

TU.lNKSGIVING.

1t is probably true that the custom
of setting apart one day, or several
days, of the year for thanksgiving dates
back to the remotcst antiquity. Ma
lions believing in Supreme Being
overruling the affairs of mankind, would
naturally devote certain days to the
Acknowledgement of their dependence
upon Him. AS long as the purity of
the religion was preserved. thanksgiv-
ing would be sincere and acceptable
worship. With tile decline of religion
the day would lose its original char
acter.
The Hebrew feast of the tabernacle
attention Of the people to the bounties
OF merciful Providence in giving an
abundance of fruit and grain. 1t was
an annual festival continued through

vessels of silver were carried In core-

were poured at the foot of the altar of
