RATES
FARMERS AND RAILROADS WILL
PROSPER OR SUFFER TOGETHER

"Any basis on which the present
transportation difficulties are solved
must be fair not only to shippers and
employees but must be fair to those
who have honestly invested their
money in railroad securities" Ralph
Budd, president of the Great North
ern Railway, declared in connection
with an educational campaign which
the Great Northern started today in
the advertising columns of every n
of the 500 newspapers along its line
from st. Paul to the Pacific coast.
President Budd said further: 81
believe a large part of the criticism
against the railroads today comes
about because of a misapprehension
of many of the facts cncerning the
railroads. A part of this is due to
deliberate Misrepresentation by a few
who not only misstate the facts, but
by wrong use of the facts themselves,
lead others to wrong conclusions, thus
creating sentiment adverse to the
railroads.
"Since the war there has been great
distress in some lines of business and
great prosperity in others. The rail
road business and agriculture nave
suffered more than any other large
industries, and their difficulties are
~singularly alike. Both have been
obliged to pay high prices for what
they bought and both have been oblig
ed to sell what they produced at COM
paratively low prices.
"Unprosperous conditions make it
very easy to convince those whose
business is suffering that the blame
must lie with someone else, and rail
road transportation plays such an
important part in the activities OF
every other line of business, includ-
ing that of the farmer, that it is not
hard to understand how many people
especially the farmers, have been led
to believe the railroads, in some way,
are responsible for most of their
troubles.
"But the fairness of the public
must be relied upon and provided the
public can have the whole truth on
which it may base its judgment, II,
believe it will be fair" !

A SERIES OF TALKS

The Great Northern Railway, thro.
ugh the chairman of its board of di-
rectors, Louis W. Hill, announces q
series of ftalks to its patrons, its en-
ployes and the general public con
corning transportation problems com
mon to ALL"
These talks will be made in paid
for space in the press of the North.
west at regular intervals. The first
of them appears in this issue of The
Herald. The argument presented is
based upon the well established pre-
mise that the interests of the Com
pany and those addressed are mutual
and inseparable.
We are all selfish when it comes
to business which is an excellent rea-
son for meeting half way the COM
mendable spirit of cooperation shown
by the officials of the Great Northern
system. 1t is hoped these talks will
throw real light on the problems that
are so vital to the country, and that
they will be digested by our readers,
opeh-mindedly and in the right
spirit.
The initial talk takes the position
that business activity depends on
good transportation at low rates.
Whatever the public can do by coop
Grafton to bring about the consuma-
tion of that much desired end the
public should do, because they are
doing it for themselves.

The treasury of the United States
has a conscience fund" built up of
sums ranging from a very few dol
lars to $4,000 which have been an
onimously refunded to the govern
ment by persons who have espoused
religion or in some way arrived at
a view of life from a new moral
angle. At some time these contrib
utors to the fund have preyed on the
government and were eve found
out. The first contribution of which
there is a record was sent in in 1911
and since then the total has grown
OF $545,000, If county conscience
funds should ever become popular,
why-who knows, maybe we could
pass the tax levies for a few years..

there they were told that while it
was extremely hot in the valley,
they would find plenty of people
enjoying life here. They decided
to come, and told Secretary Coyle
at the chamber of commerce that
they would have been everlastingly
sorry if they had overlooked this
wonderful country. Far from
finding the weather disagreeable
here, they said it compared more
than favorably with that on the
coast, and the absence of humidity
made the heat seem no worse than
ii is in Kentucky during the sum.

Cruiser Seattle
Ashore On Point
In Puget Sound
BY United Press Leased Wire

SEATTLE, Aug. 21.-The cruiser
Seattle went ashore early this morn
ing on Marrowstone Point, near
Fort Flagler, in Puget Sound, in a
heavy fog.
Reports from the Bremerton navy
yard say that the big cruiser is
not in danger and will be floated at
high tide.
The Seattle, flagship of the
United States fleet, was heading a
squadron into Elliott Bay for a 10
day stay here, after maneuvers off
Port Townsend, when the accident
occurred. Details are lacking.
The navy tugs Pawtueket, Cat
nunck and Mahropac left Bremen
ton immediately and were prepared
to render all possible assistance.
The Seattle was steaming an hour
ahead of the transport Chaumont,
carrying the house naval affairs
committee, for tour of inspection
here.
The Chaumont passed the point
without knowing the fate of the
Seattle and only learned what had
happened just before reaching
Bremerton. She continued on to
the navy yard.
