When It IS considered that the aV- craze equipment of today will cary about 60,OOO and most of it S0,00c pounds and over, the minimum of 24 900 pounds which the state of Kansas refuses to advance is nothing less than an outrage upon investors, a gross discrimination against shippers fur nishing large loads, and in this time of war such an laid and comfort" to the enemy as to be really reasonable.
 Wisconsin allowed an advance to 10000 pounds the other day, and re- gently Minnesota granted a miserly advance from 26,OO0 to 30,0O0. Kan sas denies any relief. And there you have the conflict and confusion which beset us everywhere.
 Applications for better loads are pending in Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, and many other states; but the progress-or rather, the lack of progress-is discouraging.
 You say that Eve cannot create cars" But, in a sense, we can-in- stantly. For example, in the last year the Santa Fe handled 56,512 carloads of flour and other grain pro ducts, which loaded on an average about 39,OOO pounds, the larger load of the interstate movement having been pulled down in the average by the smaller loads in the states. Had this average load of less than 39,OOO pounds been increased by 11,000 pounds and made merely a fair load of 5O,OOO pounds, the Santa Fe would thereby have saved for other trans portation uses and for other shippers about one car out of four-that is, in moving 56,512 shipments of grain products it employed about 14,OOO cars more than were necessary for that transportation. What a stupend- ous waste for only one carrier on only one commodity! What I say about grain products is true in varying de- grees of many other commodities moving in large quantities.
 The main purpose of this communl- cation is to impress upon your mind and upon the minds of your readers, by the force of concrete facts, the burning disgrace of so-called state regulation.

Death claimed another Colorado

this morning, when members Of the
family called him for breakfast shortly
after six o'clock. Evidently the end
had come three or four hours earlier.
Apoplexy was the immediate cause of
his passing. Last week the late MIR.
Buchanan was down town nearly every
day, apparently enjoying his unusual
rood health. Yesterday he complained
that his stomach was giving him
some trouble, but he was up all day
- happy and cheerful as ever. He
retired about 9 o'clock free from the
pain that had been his portion earlier
In the day. Death came without a
moments warning. The deceased was
born in Scotland So years ago. He
came to America in his early youth
and settled in Boston with his parents.
Nearly forty years ago he responded
70 the call of the west. He shared in
the adventures Of the Black Hills dur
Ing the days of the big excitements.
Later he was pioneer of Estes Park.
Thirty-one years ago at Glencoe, Mimi
