=. Ugh Cost of Railroad Operatio,

Members of both Senate and
house who have been advocating per-
manent government ownership of rail
roads are now beginning to draw in
their horns" a bit, due to the disclo-
sure of figures showing how some of
the taxpayers money has been spent
and is still going out to the railroads
in seemingly neverending stream.
Some surprising figures have been
dug up by the investigating commit
tees. In the Senate it brot out that
there are 100000 more employees
the payrolls of the railroads under
government management than there
was before, so naturally the question
is asked as to how many more thre
will be if Uncle Sam keeps the train
wheels turning for years to come
When the railroads were first taken
over, the idea was to cut out the high
salaries of the railroad presidents anC
other high railroad officials, and the
talk was all toward economy; but
among the figures that have come te
| light it is shown that on the staff o1
the director gneral of railways there
are five officials who get $4,000 {
year each, two who receive $4,000
and so on down thru $4,000 to $40,
O00yearly some seventy-two officials
who draw nearly $1,500,000. These
figures startled Senators when com
parison was made with the amour
received by them in salaries. I'm
doubtedly the pruning knife viii

of the railroads, unless all signs a

How Bills Reach The President

The administration does not seem
to trust Postmaster General Bur-
leson's official force, when it comes
to sending important documents to
President Wilon in France. Especi-
ally is this true with bills that have
been passed by both Senate and
House and which must be forwarded
to the President, wherever he abroad
so as to receive his signature before
they can become laws. Instead of
placing them in the hands of postal
officials, a special messenger is dis
patched with the important docu-
ments, directly to New York, where
they are turned over to the comman-
der of a speedy battleship or fast
commerce steamship, whichever is
due for the earliest departure. Upon
reaching French soil another special
messenger receives them and is soon
upon his way to the headquarters of
President Wilson. The moment that
the President approves of the bill and
affiXes his signature to the document
word to that effect is cabled to the
White House in Washington, and the
news is then sent to the Capitol that

Mother Symptoms Porphecy

(T&ken from the Gorham Mountain

no less than three copies were brot

The famous prophecy of Mother

1885, more than fuur hundred years
ago, before railroads, telegraphs, e.
lectricity or bicycles were ever
dreamed of, and at a time when if
man had openly predicted such things
as a definite possibility he would
have been tried and prehaps con-
demned to death as wizard. Now

come true except that the world has

Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidentsfill the world with woe
Around the world thoughts shall fly

Water shall more wonders do.

And gold be found at root of tree.
Thro hills man shall ride,
And no horse nor ass be at his side.
Under water man shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk.
In the air man shall be seen,
In white, in black, in green.
Iron in the water shall float
As easy as a wooden boat.
God shall be found mid stone,
In land that's now unknown.
Fire and water shall wonders do,

"If you ever start anything, we will
go at you again"
This. in effect, is what the United
States, England and France will say
to Germany If the proposed sugges-
sion of President Wilson and Pre-
miers Clemenceau and Lloyd George
is adopted by their respective gov
ernments, according to the idea OF
those senators who agrea with the
proposition.
+ It-is quite apparent that there will
be . hearty and lusty division q
sentiment on the question when It IL
presented to the Senate by the Pres
ident. Several senator's, upon the
first rumor Of the reported engage
ment, announced their opposition to
the suggestion. No one can tell at
this stage Of the proceedings whether
the Senate will indorse the plan or
not. It is possible, however. to re-
cite the arguments for and against
It that are advanced by senators.
Balance Of Power Idea.
For one thing, this Is recognized
as Clemenceau's initial proposition OF
"the balance of power" which he
offered as a substitute for the League
of nations. 1t is as old as the history
of Europe for the last 100 years.
There are many senators who regard
it as a good thing and far prefer
able to an idealistic league OF ma
tions. as being more workable.
'It is a going concern" they argue;
in operation since the United States
entered the war and effective since
the drive at Chateau Thierry. The
senators who hold this view point out
that it is entirely consistent for the
United States to agree to do again
any agreement, and because common
sense. safety first" and humanity re-
quired the doing Of it.
These senators say that the United
States entered the war because, in
the last analysis and as the final OF
many reasons, it was necessary to
crush German militarism, which was
being exerted against France, Bel
eium and England, and eventually
would be applied to this country

Color is given to this report by the
fact that Mr.. Bailly was announced

of the committee to pass upon the COM
positions for viola and piano submitted
for the prize of $1,000 at the Pittsfield
Chamber Music festival next summer,
and was to play the successful work at
its first performance. As both the Berk-

are under the patronage of Mrs. S. It.
Coolidge, it was the subject Of some
remark at the time that the viola of the
F'lonzaley Quartet. and not the player
of the same instrument in the Berk-

Bailly has as beautiful tone on the
viola as any player now before the
