REGISTER YOUR KICKS
Commercial Club Wishes TO Learn Criev-
naoes Against Express Companies.

There is TO be hearing in Lansing
on Feb. 10 at which the express rates
of Michigan will be aired All having
any complaint against the existing
rates will be given an opportunity to
make themselves heard and the express
companies will have an opportunity
to defend themselves.
The commercial clubs of the upper
peninsula are getting busy in their
several sections so as to get the matter
OF express rates in shape to place 1t in
telligently before the railroad commits
sion at that time. Among others, the
Crystal Falls club will gather data to
place before the commission. Secre-
tary, Reynolds following. instructions
from the directors. has posted n request
asking all who have complaints to
place them in his HANDS for action by
the club.
1t is well recognized tact that the
express companies have been fleecing
the upper peninsula for years Rates
are higher to this section than they
ought to be. This is especially true
from lower Michigan. IL costs about
twice as much to ship to lower Michi
gan as il ought to. Crystal Falls has
born this in silence for many years but
it's business men have never been sstis
fed and now that they are given an
opportunity they arc going TO register
kick
Ia this connection it may be well TO
learn what the people in other towns
are doing.
The 500 commercial club has sent
out letters to all other CLUBS in tile pen
insula asking that they take the matter
up.
The 500 merchants ieel that they
have just cause to complain of the ex-
press rates and are gathering data to
present at the hearing. IL is suggested
that a complaint made from different
section of the peninsula would have
more weight.
Senator Fowle, OF the eastern dis
trict has interested himself In the mat
ter and suggests that the various bust
ness men associations should combine
in their efforts to gather data TO pro
perly present the proposition To do
this obviously requires some time and
expense. IL should be handled Dy one
familiar with the workings of express
tariffs as we'll as the legal side Of the
question. The 500 secretary. in his
letter asks IL business men would be
willing to contribute toward the en-
plcyment Of such man.
