Oh, say, it is thus in the mirth- bring

wit, in full flower
Shoots forth from the lip under Bac-

Do YOU sometimes remember, and

Who IS lonely and sad in these val

And would pine in Elysium, if friends
were not there.

EXPRESS RATES ARE INCREASED
WHERE POST DOES NOT COMPETE
PrOhbiiNe Increases Made on Commodities Which Cannot be
Sent by New Mail Rates; Have Failed 10 Meet CON-
TeTCe Commissions Requirements.

yesterday. The new tariff sheets
supposedly are being printed in New
\ ork, but the shippers here are not
able to obtain copies of the rates.
This failure to supply copies of the
new schedules may not be a violation
of the law, but it would seem that
this very important matter should
have been attended to, inasmuch as
many months have elapsed since the
change in rates was first ordered.
Another thing which the jobbers
here are complaining about is the
new so-called terminal charge
which all the companies are making.
This charge is 20c and it is tackled on
to every bill, no matter how many
packages covered by the invoice No
one can give any explanation of this
charge or by what authority it is
made. Representatives Of the ex-
press companies say that this ter
minal" charge is only used as a
method OF computing the rate on a
given shipment They say. for exam
pie. that where the rate is 50 per
hundred this zoe charge is deducted
FROM the rate. leaving it $3.50. BY
multiplying this sum by the total
number of pounds in the shipment,
the proper charge Is obtained by add
ing the 20c to the sum,
Another complaint of the local
egg receivers is that the express COM

their expenses, have laid off large

.HE Kansas city Packer, Of

IT HE Kansas CITY Packer, of the
18th. gives a careful analysis of
= the new express rates and
shows the following very remarkable
facts; First, that the rates in many
cases have been actually raised, and
that the decrease has been almost
wholly on small packages which are
touched by the parcel post system.
The Packer says:
"Jobbers in the fruit and produce
trade in Kansas City have suddenly
awakened to the fact that the So
called horizontal reduction in express
rates, which We're promulgated by
the Interstate Commerce Commits

blare of trumpets. as proved to be
little less than boomerang. Indeed,
there are those who declare that the
new rates are, in fact, the biggest
piece of Understanding the American
people ever have been put up against.
The new rates have been in effect
less than two weeks yet there are
many instances already where the
cost of transportation by express has
been increased all the way from / = y
to So l-3 per cent. In some cases
the cost has been increased to such
an extent that the business will be
wholly destroyed.
The express companies have been
advertising the wonderful reductions
that went into effect February 1st
but they have neglected to explain
that the reductions were made only
on small package stuff such as comes
