RAIL TROUBLE
LABOR COST
SAYS OWNER
Chairman Southern Pacific
Board Testifies Before SEN
ate Probe High Operating
Expenses Seat of Difficulty.
SUGGESTS REMEDIES
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 10
The trouble with the railroads is ex-
cessive operating expenses, IAN alb
normal amount" of which is the cost
of labor. Julius kruttschmitt, chair
man of the Board of Southern Pacific
railroad declared today before the
senate interstate commerce commit
tee. He was the first witness at the
opening of the congressional investi-
cation of the whole trans portaton sit
uation.
Mr. Kruttschntt suggested five
remedies" which he said were "eas-
lily applied and productive Of great
economies" They are:
stop the use FOR common carrier
purposes of hig,'-,ys built with pub.
lie moneys without adequate tolls and
proner regulations.
Make inland waterways built or
improved at public expense carry
themselves as to interest on cost and
maintenance by regulating the com
mon carrier traffic on them and by
imposing adequate tolls.
Urges Private Control.
Keep the United States govern
ment out of the business of operating
steamships and stop the lavish expen-
diture of public money to provide
coast to coast ocean transportation in
competition with trans-continental
railroads.
Tolls for use of the Panama canal
should be sufficient to pay interest on
its cost, operating expenses and
maintenance.
DO not deprive continental carriers
Of coast to coast traffic by inf1exibly
enforcing a strict long and short haul
clause"
Mr. kruttschmitt read a prepared
statement which opened with the as
sertion that freight rates were not re.
sponsible for business depression
Charges Propaganda
Widespread propaganda is being
carried on to arouse public sentiment
against existing freight rates" he
said. The fact is that ever since the
rates have been advanced the cost of
transportation of commodities is far
less than the toll taken by the com
mission merchant and the retailer.
The witness told the committee that
the general deflation and fall of prices
had caused sta gnation of business. To
support his argument that railroad
rates were not responsible, he said
that, notwithstanding the lowest ocean
tonnage in history millions of tons
Of shipping here and abroad were rust
ing in idleness because there was a
small demand for goods.

Weeds Cut and Streets
Cleaned By the City

The city fathers have during the
mast week had the weeds cut over
town and the streets cleaneS, in
GLIDING the public square. Also
the drain pipes and cutters have
been opened and cleaned.
The law forbidding the dumping
of trash and rubbish, paper and
boxes, on the streets, especially on
the public square in front of bust
ness houses, ought to be rigidly en-
forced, Mr.. Marshal. If few
healthy fines were assessed against
those who habitually dump their
store and office sweepings into the
square the practice would soon be-
come too expensive to continue and
this trash would be carted out the
back doors and there burned, as it
ought to be. Suppose the Mar
shall, Mr.. Maiden, give every mer-
chant, business man and office man
in town a copy of this law and re-
quest that this practice of sweeping
rubbish into the square be stopped.

Fins Garrett fitted himself for the
distinguished service he has render
ed his party and his country in the
national legislature.
Garrett is one of the best equipp-
ed men in congress for rough and
tumble debate in the house, which
is only to say that he is thoroughly
conversant with the political issues
as they present themselves. He is
never so formidable as when, in
colloquial debate, he puts ques-
ton to the adversary, and it inva-
riably happens that his question is
embarrassing, and if the member
he is catechising is not well ac-
acquainted with the matter of dis
pute the effect on him is frequent
ly disastrous.
Mr.. Garrett is no disclaimer, but
he is a pleasing public speaker. His
vocabulary is not ornate like
Bourke Cockran's, but his delivery
is fluent, his speech plain, his rea-
soning clear. He is always courte-
Gus. He never speaks to wound the
feelings of the adversary or humili-
ate him. He would rather persuade
than coerce. Yet he is no Miss
Nancy, and all his speeches are as
manly as they are skilllful, In de-
bate he is match for any man on
the republican side, and that is say
ing a good deal, Jim Moon, Speak
err Gillett and Leader Mondell have
all felt his steel.
When the session Of congress be-
gan in April forty-five democrats
voted for the emergency tariff.
ONLY five democrats voted for the
Fordney traiff. At least dozen
republicans voted for free silver in
the fifty-third congress, though
Tom Reed led that side, and Reed
was great leader.
Had John F. House of Tennessee
50 willed, he would have been
speaker of the forty-fifth congress.
Had Benton McMillin remained in
congress- he would have been
speaker. Finis Garrett will be
speaker of the next democratic
house if he remains in congress and
aspires to the job. He is bright
figure.

City.
Yesterday the mayor OF a great
city responded 10 my congratula-
tons on his fine physique and good
health by saying:
Il believe 1 could stoop and lift
from the floor q man Weighing a $50
pounds, and / haven't taken a real
vacation IN Is months"
It Is rare man who lives such a
life that he is always in fine health,
always confident OF himself and al
ways ready for any emergency.
1t isn't remarkable that such a
thing can be. 1t Is remarkable
merely that IN these days of hurry
lives as he should.
Acute illness is invariably the
fault o. the victim. II may well be
that the time will come when men
will be arrested and fined for con-
tracing illness. We punish children
for breaking the rules OF conduct,
why not punish grown persons who
willfully and persistently violate the
rules OF health?
Old Adage Stin Good.
Perhaps the most common fault
OF modern life is the dissertation OF
the evening hours. Ordinarily, I am
inclined to sneer at the good old
times" In general. we live fa- bet
ter lives than did our grandparents,
and, certainly, the span of life has
increased during the last half cen
fury. But in one respect we have
deteriorated sadly.
We have lost faith in, or at least
we do not follow. the old adage that
IAN hour of sleep before midnight
is worth two hours after"
The public official have mention
ed goes 70 bed at o'clock. He rare
ly breaks this lifelong practice. AS
result his stomach is stranger to
the unnecessary and indigestible
food served at midnight He has
avoided the bad air Of many evening
gatherings. He has time for read
ing. Better than all the rest, he sees
his family, and they have the benefit
of his companionship. Then, as day
follows night, the natural .and in
evitable result Of such a life Is good
health.
Some one will say:
I'D rather die a few years earlier
than lead such a stupid life"
I syn1pathize with this view. too
AS a matter of fact, one OF the first
rules of good health is to avoid
monotony. In the human body are
many muscles. It never was intend
ed that we should use one muscle or
one set Of muscles to the neglect Of
all the rest. When one muscle is
over-used it becomes lame and sore.
This Is what mOnotony does 10 4
