UNABLE TO PAY EXPENSES.

Suspension of service by the Des
Moines Street Railway company on
the first of the month is the direct
result of the company to operate I'M
der a five-cent franchise withouts jit-
ney competition and under an eight
cent fare with unrestricted jitney
competition.
The five-cent franchise was grant
ed the company January 1, 1916 and
the companyewas never able to earn
either common, or preferred dividends
on its stock. The capital stock out
standing is $1,3o5, 900, $250.O0o of said
stock is preferred. In a recent state
ment regarding the stock, a Judge said
suggestion OF watered stock has been
made, but no investigation has been
asked with reference thereto and none
made so far as the courtknows"
The company operated ninety-two
miles of tracks in Des Moines and
gave interurban and power service be-
tween Des Mcines, Colfax, Perry,
towns as well as transporting much
of Des Monies coal supply.
High cost Of operation caused the
company in the summer of 1919 to
submit to the people a seven-cent fare
proposal. which was defeated Short
ly there after the company was
thrown into the hands of a receiver,
Il. c. Chambers, and it was in his
hands UP to the time that business
was suspended. Last August. Judge
Wade allowed a six-cent fare and
more recently the service was cut 45
per cent. and an eight-cent fare was
granted.
When the eight-cent fare went in
to effect, tho city government per-
mitted the jitney buses to take the
streets under a five-cent fare and So
licit short haul business in competi-
ton with the street railway. In the
winter months, when the streets be-
came impossible from snow, the buss-
es waited until the street railway
sweepers had cleared their tracks and
then followed the street railway right
of-way in soliciting business.
Meantime, finances of the company
gradually became worse, the line be-
ing run at 9. loss OF $4,000 during
June. A. w. Harris of Chicago on
others interested In the line advanced
more than s5oo,ooo.o0 personally to
keep 1t running, although they were
not required to do so under the terms
of their franchise or under any per-
sonal obligation to the company.
In an endeavor to meet franchise
obligations designed to cost $500 900
the company, during It's life time has
spent s2,5oo,ooo, but on account OF In
creased prices was able TO do only GO
per cent of the work named IN the
ordinance.

CAUGHT BY AID OF TELESCOPE

In July, 1921, Alonzo Z. Dole, a
professional land operator operating
in the Siuslaw country for years, was
convicted in the United States Dis
trict court at Portland, Ore, on
the charge of wilfully setting forest
fires on the Siuslaw National Forest.
He was sentenced to four months in
the Multnomah county jail, and his
APPLICATION for a new trial was denied.
Dole had long been suspected by
officers of the Forest Service of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture of wilfully setting fires on the
Siuslaw National Forest, but owing
to the sparse settlement of the great
forest area and consequent lack of
witnesses, and the further fact that
by long practice he had mastered the
trick of Tipping a burning match in
the brush along road or trail, even
dence against him were long unsuc-
cessful.
The circumstances in connection
with Dole's arrest and conviction We're
somewhat unusual. AS shown by the
evidence, one of the witnesses was
trying out new telescope by watch
ing occasional passers-by on road q
few hundred yards away. While so
doing, he saw Dole, who was riding
by on horseback, strike matches and
flip them, while burning. into the dry
ferns and brush along the roadside,
thus starting fires.

New iov trips are added each
year to Canada's roster of woods
and water trails. The eastern
provinces are tranped and padded
over by a great army Of out-of-
doors devotees each summer, but
the general conception of Canada's
mountain wonderland is that of
magnificent scenery, great peaks TO
be climbed and vast ice fields and
glaciers to be explored. These de-
lights are all there in abundance,
but this mountain country holds,
too, many delightful trails. Riding
and hiking are fairly well kno IN,

In the trail of vanished years
Dear Traveller, you and 1
Have seen beyond our tears
Hopes rainbow in the sky;
And at the rainbow's end
We knew that yellow gold
Awaited us, Dear Friend,
Just like the Fairy told.
Ventured we, and paid the cost
Dear Traveller, you and I,
Sometimes fearing efforts lost
Beyond the rainbow sky;
But grander than the Fairy told
Where our oysters grow
We have found our pot of gold;
And independence know.
Happy in their liquid home,
Fed BY Natures hand
And content 10 never roam,
From their native sand
Our oysters thrive amid the deep
At the rainbow's end
With naught to do but eat and sleep
And give us funds to spend.
All lost hopes are found
And all the glad tomorrows
In TODAY, where Joys abound
Laughing at our sorrows;
And with our Florida oyster farm
We should happy be-
Protected here from every harm

self, with all it's racking accompani-
ment of tears and sobs.
At last I conquered the first wild
rage which I had experienced upon
seeing Dicky pay for the hat he had
just selected for Edith" the pretty
art student from Virginia, and realized
that, above all, mast not let Mrs.
Durkee guess my secret.
She is a dear, sweet little woman
and I am very fond of her. But she
has neither worldly wisdom nor the
discretion of Lillian Underwood.
Without meaning 1t, I was afraid
she might let slip somehint of my
trouble If she knew anything about
1t.
How I 1onged for Lillian! But with
Mrs. Durlxee on my hands knew
there was no chance for me to see
Lillian within the next few hours.
See her I would, however, I deter
mined, the first moment I could call
my own.
The first thing, of course, was TO
get myself into some kind of physical
shape. / rose from the cot and walk
ed, unsteadily enough but still surely,
to the door and beckoned to the nurse
She came at once and with rare I'M
derstandng began to minister to me
without appearing to notice the raw
ages my storm of rage and grief had
made upon me.
She bathed my face and hands, ar :
ranged my hair, brought me a bowl
of deliscious hot broth and a cup of
strong coffee and made me take them
and then, assisting me with my wraps
and putting an extra heavy coat Of
her own around me, went with me to
a little balcony outside the emergency
room, where the fresh winter air re-
vived me more than anything else.
Madee Reviews Her Problems.
"Sit here a few minutes" she said,
kindly drawing a big veranda chair
forward, and tueking a rug about my
feet, Il will tell your friend where
you are when she comes
Thank you," I said gratefully, and
then, braced physically and mentally,
I reviewed my problem.
There was but one thing which did
not fit IN with the shameful explana-
tton, the only one that appeared pos
sible to me of Dieky's purchase of the
beautiful hat for his little Virginia
friend, and that was the innocent,
child-like appearance Of the girl.

and even through the jealous rage
which consumed me when I saw her
IN such intimate terms with my hus-
oand, I had to admit that she wasn't
It all the type of woman one would
imagine would accept clothing from

ment Of all that was gentle and good
or at least that was what any chance
observer would read In her flower
like face, and the patrieian traditions
of her native state showed In every
line, every movement. Of her body,
and IN the low-pitched sweetness Of
her voice
But One Possible Explanation?
Was it possible that she was so Ut.
terly unsophisticated that she did not
know what Dtcky would understand
by her acceptance Of such costly cloth
ing as he had bought? The question
flashed into my mind. and then / |
laughed aloud in derision Of the idea.
Besides, such innocence and ignorance
on her part would make Dicky that
most desptcabIe OF all villains, the en-
snarer OF a young and ignorant girl, !

the urgent insistence that I wait for
a little while before bringing tho mat
ter to an issue with my husband. I
have thought since that Providence
itself stayed me from going at once
to Dicky with my knowledge, as in
my first rage and grief I had thought
of doing.
BY the time Mrs. Durl1ee came back
I had carefully planned my next pro-

I decided, could help me. I must do

Work of pisturbers.

There will doubtless be considerable
propaganda invoked in efforts to defeat
the purposes of the forthcoming dis
armament conference. Scares will be
manufactured, ready for use, in order
to cause nations represented to sus-
pect each other. Already an effort
seems to be developing to create fric-
ton between this country and Great
Britain. The fact that Great Britain
has not ceased battleshtp construc-
ton Is pointed out and the inference
deduced that that country is deter
mined to maintain its present supre-
macy on the sea.
This, however, is a very fhmsy SEN
sation If Great Britain's course in
thus continuing her building program
pending the approaching conference
is to be considered reprehensible, how
much less is our own in doing the
same thing? Are we also bent upon
ruling the waves7 The stiffness
such a plea Is seen in the fact tina
the British admiralty, in advance
the calling of the conference, had an
nounced its purpose of maintaining
the navy on the single power basis,
which means a navy equal-not SUI
perior to that Of any other nation.
The British appropriation for bat
tIeships is not nearly as large as ours
and 1t would doubtless have been still
smaller had ours been smaller. Be-
sides, she is scrapping large numbers
of obsolete craft. The prospects were
never more promising for the success
of the disarmament conference. The
principal doubtful quantity is the at
titude of Japan. But every obstacle IS
suspected OF being overcome If this
country is discreet and earnest in urg-
ing action.-Chattanoo News.

PRESS COMMENT
Henry Is Doing It.

Let Henry Ford do it," IS becom
ing a popular slogan. If 1t is a bust
ness proposition that Henry contem
plates, and he is let alone, he will
just about do it all right. Mr.. Ford
has never yet failed to put through
his business schemes, SO far as we
have been able to learn, and the Unit
ed States government would do well
to take a few lessons from him, and,
incidentally, the railroads of the coun-
try might get a few pointers from
him in the way of corporation man
agement It's true that Henry made
a small sized donkey of himself when
he went to Europe on his peace miss
ion, but that was a new departure for
him, and the fact that he has only
made one blunder of that kind is to
his credit. Henry Ford is the work
ingman's greatest bepefactor In the
United States today. The minimum
wage on the railroad owned and oper-
ated by him is six dollars per day,
and he recently announced q volun-
tary reduction of twenty per cent. on
freight rates. The slogan, Let Henry
Ford do it." is all right as far as it
goes, but why not add to that, Let
the other big corporations, the United
states government included, do like
Henry. "-Eustis Lake Register.
