1t had leaked out that Goethals de-
sired job, and an acquaintance of
the family sent for him to make him
an offer. The position was that of
errand boy for a brokerage concern
and yielded $3.50 a week.
Goethals held that first position"
Tor a year or two, until il got too
small for him, and then he began TO
think about looking for something
else
But inasmuch as he was destined
never TO ask for a job his next place
sought him.
The head of a produce market had
seen Goethals busting about the
brokerage office and sized him up as
likely young chap. He asked
GOethals how he would like To be-
come a bOokkeeper.

was a bookkeeper-at 81 a week. He
sat on a high stool and we're sleeve

CHASING THE INTANGIBLE.

The Independent democrats of Ten
nessee are in a state of mind. one
might say they have gone into a
trance or are under a spell in which
they imagine themselves to be doing
things which the democratic party it
self would not do.
At this distance the Independent
contingent appears to be straining at
a gnat and swallowing a campbill Ii
has set up an imaginary condition and
attempting TO gorge it without masti-
cation.
So blinded are these malcontents by
their own obsession that they cannot
see the same point of Pres. Wilson's
plea for harmony. by means of which
what the Independents profess to de-
sire could the more easily be accom-
plished Thus we have the spectacle
Of political body rejecting the coun-
sells of its accepted and recognized
leader.
What the Independent democrats of
Tennessee need is a severe jar. Their
works have become disarranged and
reed shaking back into place Instead
of following the steady light the pres
ident is carrying for the guidance of
the party in its new FATHERS of
duty they are chasing OF into the
darkness after evanescent firefiies.

New Freight Rates
With Commissioners
ShceiaI to The Tcieerabh

Washington, D. c., Oct. 10.-The
first filings of the lines West of the
Mississippi river. of a proposed gem
eral advance in commodity freight
rates which the Western roads con-
template submitting to the Interstate
Commerce Commission, have been
made. 1t is known that a large num-
ber of tariff schedules will be filed
by the Western lines during this
month, to become effective about De-
cember /. No determination yet has
been reached by the commission as to
whether 1t will suspend the proposed
increases, but the probability is that
the advances generally will be sus-
pended, pending a hearing as to the
necessity for the increase.
Fewer Idle Cars.-Gradual lessen
ing of the number of idle freight cars
is indicated in the fortnightly bulletin
of the American Railway Association.
The surplus of idle freight equipment
on October l was 131,O27 cars, as
compared with, 136.049 on September
10, a decrease of 5.022 cars. Under
normal business conditions this sur
plus would have been eliminated by
this time of the year.
