Right of State to Fix Rate
Coming Up at Cheyenne

Lincoln, Jan. S.-(Specal. 1.-The
question whether the Nebraska lcgis-
laturc can make an intrastatc freight
rate that the Interstate Commerce
commission cannot touch is involved
in hearing set for February u, at
Cheyenne. Wvo., before an examiner
for the federal commission. Torring
ton, Wyo., complains against rates on
live stock over the Burlington 10
Omaha, as compared with the lcgis-
laturc-madc rates from Henry, just
across the Nebraska line, to the same
destination.
The commission early last spring,
without even notifying the NcbraSk a
commission of the hearing, declared
the Henry Omaha rates to be dis
crimnatory and So notified the state
commission
The Nebraska railway board
promptly rejected the report, and re-
fused to comply. 1t went further and
sent a scathing rcbuke to the national
commission. for not having notified
the Nebraska commission, SO it could
be represented at the hearing
At the national convention OF state
commissions i'll Washington recently
the matter was taken up by the whole
body, and the Interstate Commerce
commission was asked for all cxplana-
ton.
The rchearing Of the case is the re-
suit. Torrington claims that stock
men drove cattle across the Nebraska
line to get the benefit OF the Nebraska
rate. This tariff, including live stock
and oil, was fixed by the Aldrich act
of the Nebraska legislature of 1907.

chine guns or subjected to direct
shrapnel bombardment.
There is reason to believe the
western front losses were twice as
heavy earlier In the war as they
are today.
This conclusion is supported
by figures of insurance companies
which insured Canadian regi-
ments and the records of German
trade unions and professional So
cieties.
Death by disease at the
front is less likely than at
home in time of peace, thanks
to fresh air, hard work and
4. good food.
Death from wounds is becom-
ing very rare owing to the skill
of the surgeons.
About Is per cent of the Amer
lean armies are likely to. be
wounded. This is less than one
chance in flee.
OF the wounded, 40 per cent
recover completely. and return to
the fight About 40 per cent are
patched up SO that they can do
work behind the lines such as po-
Icing, construction work and
garrisoning depots.
About 20 per cent are perma-
nently incapacitated for military
service. but over half of these
are able to do light work in civil
ian life.
As the war has gone on and all
the new weapons like gas and
flame projectors have been
matched by new defensive meas
ures, the percentage of losses has
gone down steadily.
II has now reached about the
same proportion as the losses Of
the Civil war, and the tendency II
still downward.
