Il is generally admitted that an entire

OF the British islands Is needed to de-

II is believed that u federation Of all

eventuate after the war,
Thus, In effect a new state would be
created which might be called the Brit

ministered by q governor-general OF

Increase In Express
Rates Is Asked For

A conference was held here yester-
day between G. B. Viets, superintend-
ent of the American Railway Express
Company, and the members of the pub
lie service commission as to steps to be
taken IN filing an increase in express
rates. The express company is pre-.
pairing to ask for a 10 per cent increase
on all express rates in the state, ex-
cept on the Sumpter Valley railroad
line, where much greater increase
will be sought in order to get the ex-
press rates higher than the freight
rates.
Under the state law, it will be neces-
sary for the express company to file
with the commission the new tariffs,
showing the increased rates, 10 days be
fore the new rates are to become ef-
fective. In eases where the rates af-
fcted have been heretofore fixed by
the commission it will be necessary for
the company to file an application for
an increase and before the increase
can be allowed formal hearing must
be held by the commission and an order
issued.
When the new rates are iiled they
will be subject to attack by any inter
ested shipper at any time.
Mr.. Viets said the American Railway
Express Company, which is a consolida.
tion Of the other express companies
operating in the state, will observe the
rules and practices heretofore estab
ished by the other companies.

Wild blackberries are quite plentiful

Salem Apollo Club Pleases

The concert given by the Salem Apol-
10 club on the Court House lawn Mon
day evening was one of the bese musical
programs ever given the people of this
city. The object of the excursion of
the Capital CITY club to Dallas was to
create an interest in the erCounty
bridge celebration in that city some
time this month when the dedication of
the big rev steel bridge connecting
the two banner counties of the William
cite Valley vii be opened to traffic and
il is safe to say that the representation
from Dallas at the above opening exer-
cises will be one Of the largest ever in
attendance at celebration outside the
city. Dallas people, like residents of the
Capital City will be happy when the
new bridge is completed and traffic is
permitted to use it as there are many
who consider the old bridge unsafe for
travel and have heretofore discontinued
their many pleasant summer visits to
the state s capital.
