The large shippers of the country are
fixing to ask for reduced freight rates,
and the organizations of travelling sale
men are going to ask for reduced pas
senger rates. Neither is apt to be gran
ted, but we firmly believe both will in
the near. future. That is, the requests
will probably be turned down now, but
later on the same thing will, again be
sprung, and viewed in the right light.
Freight rates ought to be lowered first
if any reductions are made, for freight
rates affect every man, woman and child
in this country. man may remain
here in Abbeville all his life and never
ride on the train yet every day of his
life he feels the effect of freight rates.
New Iberia enterprise and independent observer., 1920-04-17

The things that we eat, large part of
them, as we'll as the things we wear, are
sent in by freight And that freight is
figured in the price we pay. So if the
freight rates are low that which we must
have are lower in price.
1t hasn't been very long since heap
excursions were run al over the country,
and they had the right of way over
freight. As between freight train and
an excursion train, it certainly seems
that common sense would rule in favor Of
the latter Today railroad men -
realizing this, and excursions, whilS
growing fewer, will give way to freight
trains, that the necessities of life may
be handled more rapidly and, as a result,
more cheaply.-Abbeville Progress.

ANITA STEWART is NEARLY
SM0THERED IN BLAZING
BARN.
Rescues Horse at Great Risk in Thrilling
Fire Spectacle ain Old Kentucky"

One of the thrilling scenes of "In Ole
Kentucky" the First National big specia
feature with Anita Stewart starring
which will be shown at the Elks Theatre
on Wednesday and Thursday, April 21st
and I'D is where Miss Stewart rushes into
a burning barn to save thoroughbred
racer from the flames. A barn was pur-
chased for this purpose and was burned
to the ground.
Miss Stewart, as Madge Briefly, The
little mountain girl, has been visiting
in nearby city. She is very much In
love with the young master of the estate,
but has been told by a jealous woman
that the young man is playing with her
heart. She slips quietly out Of the big
house to return to her mountain home.
But as she leaves the grounds she sees
that. the barn is on fire.
She knows that a fine thoroughbred
race horse is stabbed in the barn, and
that the horse is fovrite for the stakes
in the great Kentucky handicap, which
race soon is to be run.
Others from the house rush out as the
flames mount up, but no one dares to en-
ter the stable, which is enveloped in
smoke and, flame.
Miss Stewart actually rushes into the
barn and finally coaxes the horse to fol-
low her out of the stable. The fire and
smoke is so thick that she can hardly be
seen through the doorway, but she finally
emerges, half suffocated.
Her hair was singed in the taking Of
the scene, and she was nearly smothered
by the smoke, but she suffered no serious.
injury.
The barn of dry boards and filled with
hay then quickly burns to the ground
and falls into ruins. 1t is brilliant fire
spectacle and carries an intense thrill. j
