HIGH PRICES AND RAILROADS.

Despite the increased passenger
traffic the railroads are said to be feel
ing the effects Of the high cost of liv-
ing.
The bureau Of railway economics in
its last report, shows that the net
operating revenues continue to de-
crease.
TIE report showing this is based on
returns submitted by 90 per cent of
the steam railways Of the country for
the month of May, 1912, as compared
with May, 1911-there being a decline
of 5.5 per ent per mile.
There has been an increase Of 81 per
mile-showing that more people are
riding on our railroads than ever
before. yet with this increase in
travel high prices cause operat-
ing expenses, figured at $24.29
per mile-which is set down as
a decrease in revenue of S17.23
per each mile-the reason at
tributed for this being the increasing
cost Of labor, material and taxation.
That which %confronts every house,
hold In the land likewise seems to con
front every transportation company.
