RAIL COMMISSION
FIGHTING ADVANCES

Austin, Textile Texas railroad
commission is fighting to the last ditch
the last rate advance case in which
it has been a contestant The rail
roads succeeded in putting over their
way Express Company has not been
able to get the 1872 per cent raise
asked for last fall After the petit
ton was refused by the Texas com
mission appeal was taken to the in.
terstate commission and there it rests.
Testimony has been taken and Chair
man Mayfield of the Texas commits
sion said this week that the case would
be contested on it's merits, as the facts
and the law are different from those
with reference to the railroads
Originally the express company ask
ed for a 26 per cent advance in Texas
The Texas commission allowed a 12h
per cent increase and later the express
company asked for the other 1874 per
cent, but has been unable to get 1t
thus far.
Discussing the railroad rate situa-
ton this week Chairman Mayfield for
mally observed that with the car
riers claiming inability to make OPP
Grating expenses the question of where
railroad rates are controlled is rele-
gated to oblivion for the present. He
explained that they are after raises
and make showings that would for
bid reductions, therefore, it is not
whether the Texas or the interstate
commission is the arbiter of the state
rates However. in time, he thinks,
the situation may readjust itself to
where there must be specific regula-
ton of state rates by state rate-mak-
ing bodies. This last is overlooked
only during the period of depression
suffered by the rail lines 1t is a case,
he said of the public being unable to
stand any more rate raises, and organ
lied labor unwilling to accept reduc-
tons with the advent of new condi-
tons.

| toward the north His heart ieaped
within him and his soul was full Of the
pride of his errand. He ran far and
! fast. But when he reached Asia, and
climbed among the bearded mountains,
deep In the holes where there was no
snow he saw CLEANS Of yellow.
.'What is this strange color In the
white wOrldT said the man. He
stopped and looked. And then he
| went little nearer. And almost be-
fore he knew it, he had the yellow
things in his hands. AT once his green
cup turned bright yellow and he cried
out In amazement and fear. Then he
saw that his hands were yellow, too.
! And he knew that he could not hear
| the great message.
So he stayed in the mountains with
the yellow things, which were grains
of gold. And ever since then he will
forget great message at times when
he sees the yellow gold In the earth.
When man did not return, the Sun
said: Make another cup, little Spring.
and send it by white tiger. He is
strong and fierce and will speed for
YOU"
White tiger took the green cup and
bounded away full of pride. But he
had not gone tar before n white deer
sprang hecdIcSSly into him. How
dare you run into me- cried white
tiger. "Do you not know that | am
the bearer of the great message" And
with one blow of his white paw he
struck the little deer dead
Instantly its blood dyed his green
cup red; and white tiger, knowing
that he could not bear the great mes
sage, fell down and rolled around in
anguish. That is why the tiger is
striped red now. And the red lilies
are called tiger lilies because they look
like him.
Let me bear the great message :"
cried the eagle when white tiger
failed to return. 81 am greater than
the gray geese and swifter than the
tiger and Drawer than man."
Eagle fed, screaming defantly, with
the green cup in his fierce beak. For
o while he swept faster than the wind.

swamp and beasts creeping into II

WAS NEW ONE ON KITCHENER
Great British Soldier Somewhat Out
OF His Element When II Came
to Chapiains.

Here is II Lord Kitchener story, told
by the anonymous author of "Thc Mir
rOrs Of Downing Street" Kitchener
was a soldier and absorbed i'm his pro
fcsSion. Details outside Of his ruling
passion annoyed him.
During the early days Of the wnr
Lloyd George went to him at the war
office and asked the appointment OF
UNCONVENTIONAL chaplains for the vnri-
Gus sects Of the army.
Kitchener had no interest in chap
lainS. He regarded them rs II ncgIi
giblc factor In the fighting machine.
He opposed the appointments. Lloyd
George insisted, especially with respect
to Presbytcrians. Kitchener finally
yiclcdd and picked up his pen
"Vcry well, he said, you shnll hnv.
Il Presbyterian Then n faint smile
lighted his serious face. Let me sec
Presbyterian how do you spell ~"

small and dainty. And spring gave 1t
cup.
on flew the messenger, twittering
with JOY and pride. But when II was
far north II saw a bit of bright blue
high In the air. That was where the
blue sky. impatiently waiting for the
dellverance OF the sad old King, had
torn away just tiny corner Of cloud
and was looking down slyly.
"Oh, beautiful skyw cried the little
bird. Il know tat I should net stop,
but / must look at you and sing just
moment"
And it sang. The green cup fell to
earth, and became blue as the sky.
So did the -llthuSird. That is why
the bIuebirds 1lNays come ahead Of
Spring now and why the iris is so
blue and beautiful early in the year
"There is none left now, little
Spring, to bear the great message"
said the sun sadly. There is none
left now. and the old King must live
on and rule the world"
do you think that could bear the
great meSSageT asked a low voice
II was woman.
YOU said the Sun. "YOu are
weak and not brave and strong like
the man. or mighty like white tiger,
or swift like the eagle. What could
you do, when they have faiIcdT
LET her try" said Spring. And
she formed another green cup and
kissed it and gave It to woman.
Woman departed full of fear. She
did not run like the man or sing like
the bird But. since she was afraid
and humble she prayed.
Weeping and bleeding, she came at
last to the palace where the sad, old
white King sat waiting. And when
the woman appeared in the portals
with the green cup, all the gray geese
and the white ermines set up cry
that echoed through the world. II
was like glaciers rolling headlong into
the sounding sea; 1t was like ava
lanches shivering below; 1t was like
the southern storms that break the
Ice; 1t was like grinding bergs and
SCATTERING foes.
That is the cry that rings around
the world every year now, and when
men hear 1t they say: "Winter is
breaking up"
The old white King arose with n
glad face and reached his wrinkled
hand out for the green cup. He
pressed It to his face AMI inhaled the
smell of the growing thing. And in
a moment 1t turned white-snOw
white.
So the Easter lily became white.
And whenever the world is waiting
for a great message. all things are
well if woman bears it.
