LAW WITHOUT PRECEDENT
Railroads and Shippers Doubtful of
Effects of the eastman Distance
Tariff Statute.

Significant to railroads and even
more to shippers was the announce
ment by the state railroad and ware
house commission that it has com
pleted the task of compiling a new
schedule of freight rates in accord
ance with the terms of the eastman
distance tariff law enacted by the last
legislature.
The commission, in making this an
nouncement, outlined it's method Of
procedure. The tariffs will be sub
mitted to railroad officials and inter-
ested shippers at once. Beginning
about Nov 5 the commission will hold
open meetings to hear all criticisms
and suggestions concerning the tariffs
it has framed, that may be advanced.
These will continue for a month or
more, when the commission will re-
wise such schedules as are proved to
be defective and establish the SEIZED
ule, which is to go into effect on
Jan. /.
What effect the law will have on
state railroads and industries no one,
not even the most expert railroad
freight rate experts, dares to guess.
Even the state commission is unable
to venture prediction. That body
has followed the law closely in MAX
ing the new rates, but as the entire
system is novelty in Minnesota, there
is nothing upon which to base con-
clusiOns as to the ultimate result
By changing from a flexible distance
tariff-the basis of all railroad rates
is the distance which the commodity
is caTried-to an inflexible distance
rule, as inf1exibIe as any geometric
formula, Minnesota is dlscarding a
system for which it fought six years
in the courts and in support of which
thousands of dollars of the peoples
money was spent. 1t was while the
validity of these rates was still being
considered by the United States SUI
preme court that the legislature passed
the eastman law altering the whole
system, and giving the railroads, if
they so desire, an opportunity once
more to test in the courts the validity
of state made rates.
The principle behind the eastman
law is simple. If railroad carries
100 pounds of brick from st. Cloud to
st. Paul, seventy-five miles, for 10
cents, it must carry the same amount
of the same commodity for 10 cents
over every other seventy-five-miIe
stretch of track on it's line. This is a
hard and fast rule, applying to all
commodities.

a few moments, the imbedded sub
stance becomes so loosened that it may
easily be carded out of the teeth. II
the operation be quickly performed,
any moisture remaining will be readily
evaporated by the heat retained in the
file
This cleaning is done in several
ways; sometimes, in the finer files, by
rubbing the hand over them or by
drawing them across the apron Of the
workman; in others, by striking their
edge upon the bench or wise, and again
(which is a more common method with
the large fles), by the use Of a strip Of
old or wornout card clothing tackled
to piece of wood having. a handle
shape at one end-a device which is
usually rudely constructed by the OPP
orator.
The file should be cleaned not only
at intervals during its use, but careful.
~ before being laid aside, if the best
results are to be attained.
Morris tribune., 1913-10-31
THE CARE or FILES.
Method of Keeping These Tools In
Coed Working Condition.

Good Working Condition.
All files. when they leave the manu-
factory. are covered with oil to pre-
vent them from rusting. While this
is not Objectionable for many uses to
which the file is put there are cases
where the oil should be thoroughly re.
moved, as when the file is to be used in
finishing the larger cast iron surfaces
which are of d CLASSY nature, the prin-
cipal difficulty being to make the file
bite or keep sufficiently under the
surface to prevent glazing; otherwise
the action not only hardens or burn
ishes the surface operated upon, but
dulls the extreme points of the teeth,
thus working against the desired end
in both particulars
Oil may, however, be used to good
advantage on new files which are put
Immediately to work upon narrow fl,
brous metals of a harder nature; in
such cases it is not uncommon with
good workmen to fill the teeth with
oil and chalk
Oil is also useful on fine files in the
finishing of wrought iron or steel, as
by its use the teeth will not pene-
trate to the same degree and the dis
position to pin" and scratch the work
is materially less than when used dry
The dust and small particles remov-
ed from the material operated upon
are always more or less liable to clog
and fill the teeth. This tendency is
especially aggravated when the file is
used upon wood horn, and such other
materials as will, upon being mixed
with the oil in the teeth, become
baked when dry and thus prevent the
teeth from penetrating the work as
well as giving them the appearance Of
being worn and tending to injure them
by rust
In removing Oil frcm the teeth of a
new file, ready way Is to rub chalk
or charcoal across the teeth and brush
thoroughly. By repeating the opera
ton few times the oil will be entirely
absorbed and the file will be in the
best possible condition for use upon
cast iron.
When the teeth Of files are clogged
with wood. or other soft substance
which has become baked into them, if
the file is held in bcilin~ hot wafer for

RAILROAD NOTES

General managers of 50 railroads re-
ceived a demand for a Is per cent
wage increase for trainmen and con-
ductors, and standardization OF wage
scales. The demands were sent from
Cleveland by officers of the trainmen's
and conductors brotherhoods.
The demand affects all roads east
of the Mississippi river and north OF
the Mason and Dixon line. The two
brotherhoods have a membership in
that division of 100000. Increases. if
granted, will mean ten millions more
in annual wages to railroad men.
Railroad managers are given until
January q to reply. On that date COM
mittees from the two organizations
for each road will call on the mana
gers.
The demands submitted Monday in
clude II articles. and affect conduct
ors, baggagemen. flagmen, brakemen
and switchmen. BY the new scale pas
senger conductors seek s135 a month
as minimum wage. The present wage
is $3.50. Baggagemen are to have sS7
and brakemen SS1.
