General increase in freight rates on
commodities to become effective .Seu-
TENDER are propof ed in new tariffs
filed by the transeontinental railroads
with the interstate commerce commits
sion. While the new rates are design
ed to meet the commissions decision
ia the Spokane. Reno and Phoenix
rate cases anw would reduce rates to
the intermountain territory, they ma
east to Pacific coast points.
The proposed tariffs. which affect
all transcontinental traffic, were filed
by r. II. Countiss of Chicago, for all
the transcontinental railroads. It al
ways has been contended by the rail-
roads that these rates were too low.
The commission has not checked up
the tariffs with present rates, but such
examination as has been possible in
dicates that the increases to the Pa
cific terminals are considerably great
.er than the reductions to the inter-
Rocky mountain territory.
Mr.. Countiss says that some carload
rates to terminal points are advanced
on commodities which are not subject
to water competition to any great ex-
tent This adjustment, he points out
creates an advance to the terminals,
but reduces the rates to interior de-
situations.
Some commodity rates in force at
present are absolutely eliminated,
thus automatically transferring the
articles shipped to western assifica-
ton. under which the rates would be
considerably higher than at present.
Mr.. Conntiss maintains that this ad-
justment would relieve the discrimina-
which now exists.

When the Gates Slam.
Sometimes in our theatre packed
with people, we see around the walls
little red lights. Fire Escapes The
people know, when in danger of fire,
they can flee by way of these doors.
There are plenty of them; but in that
fearful place where souls are scared
with fire. there is no escape. When
the eternal gates slam behind the soul.
not the combined prayers of human
ity, coupled with the intercession of
Christ's Virgin Mother, can ever re-
call them.
We are hurrying now to the saddest
day of the christian year. The day
when we should let the thoughts of
eternity sink into our souls We are
coming to the day when our hearts
should be crushed with sorrow. be-
cause IL we are true to ourselves, we
must stand the confessed murderers
of Jesus Christ. You know there are
three great feasts In the christian
year. One is the feast of Faith, and
one is the feast of Hope, and one is
the feast of Love. Christmas is the
feast day of love. There is the little
babe that God became that We may
not be afraid of him There is Easter
day, when Christ put at naught the
power of the world; standing on the
stone that had been rolled from the
sepulchre. That is the feast day of
faith. But we are approaching the
feast day of Hope The feast day of
christian hope, and there is the torn,
bleeding body of Jesus Christ we can
read better than in the pages of any
book. the great lesson OF Jesus love
for us. Jesus did not create us to
damn US. No he created us and died
for US to deliver u.s. This is the anaes-
