An increase in the railroads
charges for handling local freight re-
suited IN heavy advance in the price
or sand, gravel and stone, quoted by
contractors to the department of pub
lie works in bids opened, Friday. The
dealers say that their prices for the
material would no. have been higher
than those quoted last year, had ii not
been for the increase in the freight
tariffs They expressed great indigna-
ton over the situation. The CHIEF
trouble they fear, is that private
builders will be discouraged and their
business will be injured.
Where il cost the dealers 81 TO
move freight car loaded with build
ing material last year, IL will cost
$3.50 this year." said +. G. Dunbar,
of the Dunbar Stone Co., one of the
bidders for city contracts. "The
charges are called switching tariffs.
and are made where a car is switched
from one line 10 another. The dis
lance may be only few hundred feet
but still the railroads insist on boost
ing the charge from, 81 TO $3.50. Last
year the charge was made by the car,
this year ii is % cents ton. In prac-
tee It works out $3.50 for the ear.
The new tariffs are to take effect
Feb. l. The railroad companies con.
tend that in handling this traffic, they
are not acting az common carriers bat
as carriage companies and they have
the right to charge what they please.
The state has filed suit to prevent the
railroad companies making such al
ditional charges. and the case has
been carried to the United States su,
preme court. II Is very important not
only to the dealers. but TO contractors
and builders, because II the rates go
into effect, II means q big increase in
prices to the consumers and would
tend to discourage building opera
tons"
Dunbar said that in submitting his
bid. he quoted the same figures as he
did last year, plus the extra freigl
rates.
Commissioner Haarer Is In q guam

WATER SUPPLY
IS IN NEED OF
STERILIZATION
-G. y. WILLIAMS.
Expert Urges the Immediate
Adoption of the HypO-
chlOrite Treatment
ADVISES AGAINST
LAKE HURON SUPPLY
Says Cost of Piping Would Be
$15,000,000; Reservoir
Is Not Needed

Detroit 10 not IN immediate need
of filtration plant for its water sup
ply, but sterilization by chemical
means is highly desirable, in the opin-
ion of Gardner S. Williams, consulting
engineer. OF Ann Arbor.
Mr. Williams submitted To the water
board, Friday, his reply to five ques-
tons asked by the board pertaining
to the water system OF the city and
the question of filtration was ore OF
them Mr.. Williams submitted q
table showing the deaths from ty-
phoid. commonly due 10 impure water,
In the large cities. and II was shown
that the typhoid death rate in Detroit
was but slightly higher than that OF
Chicago and Cleveland, cities obtain
ing their water supply from lakes.
One of the questions asked was If II
would not be more conducive to the
public health to obtain the city's wa
ter supply from the inlanu lakes or
from Lake Huron. Mr. Williams brief.
ly disposed OF It by saying that while
the expense would be enormous, no
benefits could be obtained by going to
such ends for the city's water supply.
He said IL would cost $15,000.000 TO
pipe water here from Lake Huron.
Lake st. Clair and the Detroit river,
he asserted. are the city's natural and
only practical source OF water supply.
referring To the desirabiffty Of filter
ing this water supply, he stated:
1T is advisable to contemplate the
construction OF a filtration plant for
Detroit's water supply. However, l
would recommend the immediate
adoption of the hypochlorlte treat
ment and the early construction OF a
permanent plant therefor, and the
continuous sterilization hereafter OF
the water furnished the citizens or
Detroit"
Mr.. Williams, In his report, stated
that II would be inadvisahle TO build a
reservoir to retain the water, because
the city has a continuous and mex
haustible supply. He said that when
the present pumping facilities are
completed, they will be ample. and he
would not recommend the immediate
construction OF another pumping sta
ton. He advised the board that
booster" pumps should be estab-
lished in the northern part OF the city
to increase the pressure In these dis
tricts. The board read the report but
took no action on II.
Final payment was made for the 81
acre tract of land. east OF Gladwin
park, as previously agreed on. DR..
Stanley G.. Minor received $4,000 in
four per cent bonds, and $14,195.03 in
cash for IL acres. Mrs. Janette Lor-
man received 100000 in four per cent
bonds. and $2S.46S.92 in cash for II
acres.

Taft Says That is Duty of Citizens in
 Mexican Affair.

New York, Dec. live are inter national trustees of the prosperity we have and the power we enjoy, and we are in duty bound to use them when 1t is both convenient and proper to help our neighbors," declared former Presi- dent William Howard Taft tonight in a lecture before the New York Peace society on the Monroe doctrine, which he held should be continued in full force despite the hostility to it express ed in some quarters.
 When we come to Mexico" he said, where anarchy seems now to reign, the question is a most delicate one. intervention by force means that eX- penditure of enormous treasure on our part, the loss of more valuable lives and the dragging out of a most tedi- ous war against guerrillas in a trat- less country All that those of us who are not in the government can do is to support the hands of the president and the secretary of state. and to present to the European powers and the world a solid front. In spite of the discour- aging conditions in Mexico, the present situation illustrates the benehcent in- fluence of the Monroe doctrine on the attitude of the European powers, which, in spite of the injury to the property and persons of their nation als, look to the United States as a guide whom they are willing to follow in working out a solution"

Makes Kidney, Bladder, Dis orders and Rheumatic
 Pains Vanish

If you suffer with backaehing kid ney trouble; have disagreeable b.ad- der and urinary disorders, or aIe cof- tured with rheumatism, stiff joint and heartwrenchlng pains, you will be surprised how quickly and surely CroAone will relieve all such misery.
 IL soaks right in through the walls, ElE r3branes and Things, cleans out and strengthens the stopped up organs neutraIizes, dissolves, and makes the kidneys sift out and filter away the uric acid and poisons from the blood, and leaves the kidneys and urinary organs, clean, strong, active and healthy.
 It matters not how long you have suffered; how old you are, or what you have tried. It is practically inn possible to take CroXone without re- suits, for it starts to work the minute you take it.
 If you suffer with pains in the back or sides; if you are nervous, tired and run down; bothered with urinary dis orders, or have any signs of kidney bladder troubles or rheumatism, don spend another needless day suffering.
 Secure an original package of Crox- one today, and prove for yourself right now, as thousands of others have done, just how quickly it will end your misery.
 Croxone is inexpensive, and every druggist is authorized to return the purchase price if it fails in single case.

Prof. c. D. Jarvis of Connecticut Agricultural college, who is in charge of the extension work. was here on Thursday evening for a meeting of conference and instruction with a com Inittee from the Norwich Business Mems association on the matter of q farm bureau for New London county which it is desired to establish here as the natural center for the county.
 In the Business Mems association rooms in the shannon building he met and talked over the matter with w Q. Rogers, E. C. Jewett, c. l. Smith and William H. Cruickshank, spending about three hours in the discussion of the subject.
 In the development of this extension movement through the farm bureau, Professor Jarvis told the Norwich com mittee the state is ready to give S1000 for the work in this county, and it is figured that about $3,000 should be spent the first year in the work that would be done.
 It would be expected that this $2,000 would be raised by the citizens of the county either through membership fees or in other ways that might be sug- gested. All this extension movement 5 intended to help the farmer to help himself and wherever it has been de veloped in other states it has been found that the farmers eagerly avail themselves of it, and once it has been established and demonstrated it's val ue, they become it's ardent supporters. But it is not alone to the farmer that it is an aid for it's effect is seen in all lines of commercial life. and it is all

classes Of citizens that are to be sc- hclted to come t, Is support, II tEe movement is Asul.sl s .1i4e U will eve4st- uallY support itse4f.
 The intention Is 10 make every per son in the county intel c. 1ed in 1t. Mi. h that end in view 1t WAS S4s,seslea ,o hold a grand county meeting at which a representation of all classes would be sought-farmers, merchants, manu- facturers, bankers, clergymen, school teachers and others. In the west the movement has been taken up with en- thusiasm, and in the national bankers convention an endorsement Of this farm bureau and extension work has been passed.
 In the plan of operation it was ex- plained that the county farm bureau would be administered by a paid off cial in charge, whose effort would be to disseminate for the benefit of the farmers the information that the state agricultural colletge Wouldr have to furnish through it's extension work and he would also have acquaintance with and bel n touch with such local ex- perts in various agricultural lines as lived in the territory. As an example of this side of the Wark the names of Allen Latham in bee keeping, Frank w Browning in orcharding and w. o. Rogers in poultry were suggested in this territory. Their practical knowl- edge would be available. it would be expected, in developing the success of the farm bureau work.
 There would also be a service that could be rendered for the farmers through the press, as it would be ex- pected to give out hints on methods and suggestions in this way.
 Professor Jarvis spoke of the work done in Hampden county, Massachu- setts, in this line, where the increased prosperity of the county has been made the object of similar kind ot service in which about $15.000 is to be spent It is to touch economic educa- tional, social, civic and religious con ditions. The New London county farm bureau, however, would hardly be as extensive in its work as this.
 Farming on a business basis, crop adaptation and rotation, livestock, milk production, fruit growth, poultry, market gardening, forestry, orcharding, boxing and marketing produce are all some of the points in the Hampden county programme and which would be followed in a degree in the New Lon desired to establish through the help of the state.
 The local committee will hold further meetings at which the plan will be still further discussed with the view O. working towards the big county meet ing which would be an organization meeting and at which one of the ob- jects would be to get a very large and general representation from every town in the county.
