On Two-Cent Passenger Rates

both the State and the Railway Com
pany testified that the claims of the
railroad were sustained by the facts.
Two cents did not pay the cost of
| carrying a passenger a mile. The
State, however, contended that the
railroad was earning enough surplus
on its state freight business to give a
fair return upon the capital used in
its passenger as we'll as IT'S freight
business. For the purposes of the
case, the railroad did not deny this,
but held to its contention that the
State could not segregate its pas
senger business for rate fixing with
out allowing a rate that would be
sufficient toN pay the cost of doing
business and enough to give some
return upon the capital invested in
doing the business regulated. This
was the issue presented to the Su-
preme Court Its decision responds
to the judgment of the fair-minded
sentiment of the country. The Su-
preme Court says that, even though
d Idl1LOdu earns sui pluS On d pal :
ticular commodity by charging rea-
sonable rates, that affords no reason
for compelling it to haul another's
person or property for less than cost.
The surplus from a reasonable rate
properly belongs to the railway COM
pany. If the surplus is earned from
an unreasonable rate then that rate
should be reduced The State may
not even up by requiring the railroad
to carry other traffic for nothing or
for less than cost
The decision is a wholesome one
and demonstrates that the ordinary
rules of fair dealing apply to railway
companies. The fact that one makes
a surplus on his wheat crop would
never be urged as a reason for COM
pelling him to sell his cotton at less
than cost. 1t would not satisfy the
man who wanted bread to be told
that its high price enabled the cotton
manufacturer to get his raw product
for less than cost. In this case the
court reaffirmed the homely maxim
that each tub must stand upon its
own bottom"

states have two cent passenger rate
and whatever loss is incurred is recov-
cred through freight revenue. The JUS
tice of such a procedure was recently
passed upon by the Supreme Court
of West Virginia and the decision is
SO far-reaching that we have asked
l.. E. Johnson, president of the Nor
folk and Western Railway whose road
contested the case to briefly review
the suit. Mr.. Johnson said in part:
Some ten years ago, passenger
fares were fixed by the legislatures
of a large number of states at two
cents a mile. AS a basis for such
economic legislation, no examination
was made of the cost of doing the
business so regulated, nor was any
attention given to the fact whether
such rate would yield to the rail-
way companies an adequate or any
net return upon the capital invested
In conducting this class of business.
Such a law was passed in West
Virginia in 1907. The Norfolk and
Western Railway Company put the
rate into effect and maintained it for
two years. Its accounting during
these two years showed that two
cents a mile per passenger barely
paid the out-of-pocket cost and moth
ing was left to pay any return on
capital invested 1t sought relief from
the courts. Expert accountants for

DANDRUFF GOES!
 HAIR GETS THICK, NAVY, BEAUTIFUL
SAVE YOUR HAIRl DOUBLE ITS BEAUTY IN A FEW MOMENTS.
 TRY THIsl
HAIR STOPS COMING OUT AND EVERY PARTICLE OF DAN
 DRUFF DISAPPEARS.

Try as you will. after an application of Danderine, you can not find a sim gle trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most, will be after a few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at hrgt-yes- but really new hair-growing all over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately deu- bles the beauty of your hair. No diff ference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is imme- diate and amazing-your hair. will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an ihcom- parable lustre, softness and luxuri- ance, the beauty and shimmer of true hair health.
 Get a Recent bottle of Enowlton's Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that's all.
 Danderine is to the hair what fresh showers of rain and sunshine are to vegetation. It goes right to the roots, invigorates and strengthens them. Its exhilarating, stimulating and life producing properties cause the hair to grow long, strong and beautiful.

EVELYN FLETcHER-coPP.
Distinguished Originator of the Fleteh- CT System on Visit to Pacific coast.

Mrs. Evelyn Fletcher -Copp, one of Americas most distinguished musical educators, who has had so large share in revolutionizing the music teaching methods for children, is on a visit to the Pacific coast at present g. sOtourner in Los Angeles.
 Mrs. Copp is a musician or sound musical traininy herself, having SUD- plefnented her earlier studies with i've years abroad. She was a classmate of Max Rieger, in the class of the celebrated Hugo Reimann, with whom she studied two and half years In Wfesha6en. Her work abroad includ- ed a well rounded course of study, though she specialized in violin. Re- turniDR to America she accepted a po- eition at the Bishop Strachen school, Toronto, where she began to evolve the system of music study that has since given her fame. She was dissatisfied with the prevailing method of teach ing children, believing that instead of forcing instruction on young people tho latter should be made to feel a desire to study by methods that would arouse interest in the child mind and make for self-expression in the young student.
 In 1S91 she formulated her ideas in- to what has since been known as the Fletcher Method, and on which latter she has spent upwards Of $16,000 to perfect. inclusive of patents for models and in promoting. Many of these models she discarded.
 In the fall of 1897 Mrs. Copp be- came member of the faculty of the New England Conservatory, Boston where she had class of 122 teacher students. She does not believe in en. couraging those to teach her mteho6 who are not adapted by suitable quail. ficationR to teach children. Nor does she pprove of exploiting students oi tender age before the public, which she considers detrimental to the child'I welfare.
 Mrs Copp has been abroad a mum. ber of times to lecture and teach, ana has many former pupils in England besides the five hundred or so ,F1etch. er teachers in America. She is member of the Incorporated Society o, Musicians, London.
