council, Alderman Britten of the
23rd ward, introduced a resolu-
ton which provided that the cor
poration counsel give an opinion
whether the city has the right and
power to enforce a single fare,
universal transfer over the lines
of the Chicago Elevated Rail
ways.
The Chicago Elevated Rail
ways is a consolidation of the
South Side Elevated Railroad
company, the Metropolitan West
Side Elevated Railway company
and the Northwestern Elevated
Railroad company, which also
controls the Chicago and Oak
Park Elevated Railroad system.
The consolidation has been in
effect for six months or more. and
no move has been made by either
the Chicago Elevated Railways
or the city council to make the
changes promised the people of
Chicago.
In a statement of June 28,
1911, Henry A. Blair, chairman of
the board of the Chicago Rail
ways company, says that the ca
pacity of the loop could be IN
creased from 80 to 80 per cent
by through routing of trains and
through a Encouragement OF
routes, also that improvements OF
80 to so per cent could be made
without any expenditure IN
changing the loop structure.

duction of $35O,OOO in the cost of

In consolidating, a saving of
more than S35O,OO0 per annum is
confidently expected in the cost
of electric power.
The earnings of the elevated
companies show a steady growth
from year to year. From 1905 to
1910, the increase was as much
as 40 per cent per annum. The
following are the gross earnings
each year: 1905, So, 109,101 1906,

1T is not surprising that in a few
weeks campaign, majority of the
Republican electors failed to compre-

Republican principles means.
History is being made very fast
and those who are in the thick of il

Mr.. Roosevelt's platform, which, il
his candidacy should be accepted, the
Republican party must officially en-

other student of history knows that
no democracy can endure on that bas-
is, and that the people themselves are
the first to recognize this and turn to
an individual to rule them.

committee would be for Taft. Talk

these delegates would stick to him to

MILLERS' CONVENTION
President of Federation Recites 9
Hard Luck Story.

Kansas City. May 29.-To lift the
-four industry "out of the slough OF
despond into which it has dropped dur
ing the past few years and give it the
place among the industries which b.
reason of the capital invested, the
brains employed and the effort expend-
ed, it should by right occupy is the
purpose of the conference of the Mil
lers' National federation which began d
three days session here today. as out
lined by A. j. Hunt of Wichita, presl
dent in his opening address.
Nearly 500 millers from all parts OF
the country are attending the meet
ing which will close with a days tour
of inspection over Kansas wheat fields.
'The past year has not been a pros
porous one for the flour miIlers.'' Mr..
Hunt continued, Contrary to the GUS
tom of former years mills have been
unable to book shipments in advance.
AS result our trade has been a hand
to-mouth small purchase business !;
export trade has declined to almost
nothing and thus the entire domestic
production has been forced into the
home market.
'All this has brought about a COM
petition within the domestic market
which left profits about as lean as the
trade ever has seen. Conditions be-
came so serious that last November the
federation met in Chicago to devise a
remedy.
"At that meeting arrangements were
made for a cost commission which has
been working diligently to perfect a
cost finding system under which it will
be possible for each manufacturer to
know to a fraction of a cent his cost
of production. A second conference at
ST. Louis in December formulated the
plan of calling this meeting for the
purpose of making our business a lit
tie less hazardous and a little more pro-
fitable.
my idea of success for the fedora
ton is bound up in the following pro-
positions:
''First-A full, free and frank dis
cussion of every question coming be-
fore this commission.
"Se,ond-The use by us of the work
of the cost commission so that in every
mill in the country there shall be es-
tablished cost finding system which
will enable that particular miller t.
know accurately and absolutely his
cost of production.
Lastly, the demonstration of the
fact that the millers of the United
States can hold a real business confer
ence to their own profit and benefit and
the establishment through this confer
ence, of such spirit of cooperation and
confidence that we eventually shall be
able to lift the flour industry out of
the slough of despond."

SAFE FIRE PROOF
So Government Has Papers i'm
Land Fraud Case.
Kern Oil Company Merely
Dummy for Concern.

San Francisco, Cal, May 29-That
the government now has data which It
propose. to use against the Southern
Pacific railroad, charging fraudulent
filing on lands in Kern county, CAL
ifornia, is due to the fact that Charles
Wood Eberlin had a safe that was
really fireproof
Eberlin was acting land agent for the
road.
The papers on which Attorney Gener-
al Wickersham bases his position as
announced from Washington, were
kept by Eberlin in his private safe so
that they might not be open to the
inspection of his clerks. After the great
fire they were found charred and car
bcnized but still decipherable if ham
died with great care.
Eberlin was charged with making a
false affidavit in furtherance of the
alleged conspiracy, at the time he was
acting land agent for the Southern Pa
clflc In testimony given at Los An
geles, on May IS, he swore that he was
acquainted with the true nature of the
lands at the time he accepted his du-
ties and lent his name to the affidavit
on the strength of assurances he as
sumed to be beyond question given him
by officers of the company
Later his suspicious were aroused
and he refused to sign a lease now in
the possession of the government be-
tween the Southern Pacific and the
Kern Trading and Oil company. This
lease, the government will seek 10

pany was merely dummy for the rail-
road, although the railroad in its n
