operating revenue by ascertaininl
what they have amounted to for eacl
mile. II may be. for example, as was
the case in March, that while in tbs
aggregate net operating revenue has
increased. it has decreased when meas
ured per mile of line.
Monthly summaries Of the revenues
and expenses OF the steam railways of
the United States have been compiled
by the Bureau of Railway Economics
from the reports filed month by month
by the railways with the Interstate
commerce commission. for the twenty
two months from July. 1910 TO April,
1912. the latest month for which re-
turns are available. Net operating
revenue per mile Of line for the rail-
ways as a whole i'm comparison with
the corresponding months Of the pre-
vious year decreased IN eighteen OF
these months. ana increased in but
four The decrease per mile OF line
per month was as great in amount
as s53. and as great in ratio as IL
per cent. The greatest increase for
any one of the four months showing
increases was $31, or 141 per cent.
This was in February. 1912, and was
exceptional as this month contained
one more day than February, 1911. The
highest average net operating revenue
per mile of line for any one month of
this period was S4O9. the lowest S2OS.
Seven of the ten months from July,
1911 10 April, 1912, show decreases in
net operating revenue per mile of line
as compared with the corresponding
months of the fiscal year ending June
70, 1911, showed decreases i'm com
parson with the respective correspond
ing months Of the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1910. II is therefore evident
that the trend of railway net revenue
has been downward for the past two
years.
The summary for April 1912. shows |
that net operating revenue was less
than for April, 1911. by $6,O264l0,
equivalent per mile of line TO 1873, or
ia per cent. This net operating
revenue, which in the aggregate
amounted to s56Se2.9i5 averaged $685.

; STORY OF THE LOST
CHILD OF WYOMING.



There stands in Indiana an inter
esting monument ON high knoll
overlooking the valley of the Missssi-
neva river in Wabash county The
| monument marks the burial place of
a woman of singular and romantic
history, known as Frances Slocun
among the white people ana as White
Roes among the Indians She
was stolen from Quaker parents
in the Wloming valley ol
PENNSYLVANIA i'm 177S and brought up
among the Indians in the west Her
parents were Jonathan aud Mary Slo-
! cum Of Connecticut. who moved 10
small frontier settlement. When
Frances was young girl their dwell
ing was attacked by Delaware In
dians.
The Indians carried her FAR away,
over the mountains and through for
ests. They treated her kindly. giving
her baskets 10 sleep upon at night i'm
beds or leaves. At length, too they
gave her a horse To ride.
She was taught To fear and hate the
white men, and whenever she saw one
she ran away. None of the white
men who visited her tribe suspected,
therefore, that they had white child
among them. She learned TO shoot
well with the bow and arrow. When
the DelaWares had a war with the
whites she was run off into the north
with the other women and children.
She did not lament this,
When she was rs years old she was
married 10 a Delaware chief Little

she left him. and afterward was mar

Most labor-saverS cost money.

A new-fangled washer, an electric sad
iron or a gas range mean you have to pay
out good sum to start with.
But Fels-Naptha Soap will save you
more work than all these other things put
together and it costs no more than other
soaps.
Labor-saving and economy are COM
bined in Fels-Naptha.
And labor is not the only thing saved.
When you wash with Fels-Naptha Soap
the ls-Naptha way, in cool or lukewarm
water, it saves the clothes.
No boiling to soften them; no hard
rubbing to wear them out.
They last twice as long.
No matter how big the washing is, it
doesn't take half as long as if you boiled
and hard-rubbed the clothes.
They'll be sweeter, whittier and cleaner.
Isn't it worth trying1
Be sure and use cool or lukewarm
water in Winter or Summer-no boiling
according to directions on the red and
green wrapper.

SATURDAY, JULY 6, 1912.
THAT THIRD PARTY.

INA TIM FfNn y u
Col. Roosevelt's third party move
ment is getting weaker every day
Even with the support Of all the pro-
gressive leaders originally with hin
the third party would have had hard
time OF 1t, but with the daily defec-
tons from the ranks there is little
chance that it will seriously embarrass
either the G. o. P. or the Democracy
Yet Theodore still insists there is
a great demand for him and will go
right ahead with the organization of
his third party and campaign for a
third term.
The colonel says the assertions OF
Hadley. Aldrich Osborn. McHarg and
a few of the other men until recently
prominent in Roosevelts interest
won't make any difference.
But 1t will make a difference. The
men who have decided to stay in the
Republican party have taken the right
view of the situation. They apprec-
tate the fact that the party is great
er than the ambitions of any man and
that more progress can be made
within 1t than by afilating with a
puny third party organization lacking
in force and essentials for the ac-
complishment of great things.
Recent developments politically have
added greatly to President Tafts
strength. He will have the support Ct
many men Of influence who have been
lined up with the radical wing Of the
party. Senators Cummins and La
Toilette are among these. Both Of
these men will stay in the party and
work for it's success.
Senator Cummins points out that
throughout his public life he had been
fighting to make the Republican party
the progressive party of the country
and that while he had never hesitated |
TO denouuce party politics when he
believed them 70 be wrong or to crit
icize party leaders. he had always be-
lieved and still believed that the Re
publican party offers more hope for
substantial progress towards good
government than any other political
organization.
Il believe he says. that we can
solve the problems before us more
quickly and more successfully through
the Republican party than through
any other political organization"
Senator LaFollette views the situa-
ton in much the same way.
John c. Capers. South Carolina
member Of the Republican national
committee, who supported Colonel
Roosevelt for the presidential nomin-
alton at Chicago. also formally an
nounces his intention to support
President Tafts candidacy. MIR. Ca
pers in a statement says that the work,
OF the majority Of the national COM
mittee was not one whit more severe
than the steam roller methods Of four
years ago" at that time" he saws
"in behalf Of Candidate Taft and IN
der the direction Of President Roose-
welt, / was one OF the engineers of

wants TO regain possession or the big
stick. He won't be happy TIL he gets
