DENIES M|DDLEMAN
! PYRAMIDS PROF T|S
Charge by Coal Commission,
Made in Report. Resented by
Wholesale Association.

Exception to the statement issued
by the United States Coal Commission
on August 80. in which that body al
legged that the pyramiding of profits
on the part of the middleman was one
of the causes of high prices of anthra-
cite last winter, was taken yesterday by
the American Wholesale Coal Asso-
citation in a letter to John Hays Ham
mond, chairman of the United States
Coal Commission. 1t is claimed the
Coal Commission in it's statement took
an isolated case and represented it a 8
the general practice of the trade and
that the commission made it's deduc-
tions for the influence of public opin-
ion" and did not confine itself to the
exact and impartial facts of the case.
Extract from Letter.
The letter, in part, read:
The most important statement in
the entire bulletin is to the effect that
only some $50 cars were found by
the commission to have moved at
prices considered to be extortionate
These 100 cars covered some 10000
tons of coal, presumably all that YOU
could find representing this evil prac-
tice.
Permit me to direct your attention
TO the fact that compared with the
total production for the week ending
August Is this is almost exactly > per
cent. With more than half OF this
ltumber of cars passing through the
hands of one wholesaler, you have
seen mt to convey to the public the
lsoiated practice of few as the gem
eral custom of the trade.
Much more justly might YOU have
cited the fact that the entire years
business OF the central western division
was handled at a net loss of 2 cents
per ton in the year 1921. or that the
entire Wholesale coal business of the
country in that year was carried on
at net profit of only slx-tenths Of
a cent per ton. That these amazine
figures, arrived at by your investi.
gators and statisticians, are ignored
In your one-sided statement compels
the reflection that the commission In
making its deductions for the infiu-
ence or pubic opinion is not confining
itself to the exact and impartial
facts.
Injustice Is Charged.
IF the August 80 press release
OF the commission is indicative of
the general trend of the investtga ton
which it has pleased the comnissi,n

coaI, we are prompted to INQUIRE

Bobbed Hair Fad
Is Obstacle to
Hazing Custom

Blythe Associated Press.
RI PITTSBURGH. Pa. September IS.
--Bobbed hair has halted for the
time being the initiation of fresh
man. girls on the campus at the
Carnegie Institute of Technology.
In past years the chief hazing GUS
tom for frst-year girls has been
that they wear their hair in plaits
and in other quaint ways, with
hair ribbons predominating.
That custom is passe now, sopho-
more girls declare, because of the
popularity of "the bob" and they
are in quandary for substitute
to the chief feature for the hazing
festivities scheduled for later in

Fatten Lambs in Corn Fields.

Much corn in the vicinity of Cas-
cade is being harvested through the
turning into the fields of bands of
lambs which are being fattened for
the market.
This is found to be an inexpensive
method of realizing on the corn crop.
The lambs gather the corn, getting
sufficient roughage from the corn
stalks to balance the grain without
waste and the harvested crop walks
to market instead of being hauled in
a truck wagon.
Sheepmen say that this is an ideal
method of fattening lambs if the corn
is fully matured so that it will shell
readily as the sheep nibble it but that
it is not so practical in soft corn. If
this method of feeding sheep becomes
general in the state there is no doubt
that it will result in Improvement in
both mutton and wool.

Thirty Red Lodge business mer
have united under the Neosho plar
for big market day, Monday, Dec
3. At this time the merchants viii
buy, for cash, at the highest market
price all the turkeys that farmers
will sell and will themselves offer
dollar day sale.
Each merchant member of the Ne
osho club will advertise two articles
or specials priced at dollar each
A committee of inspection visits the
several stores to ascertain that the
sale offerings are of genuine value;
in no case will any merchant be al
lowed to duplicate the feature offer
ing of any other.
Arrangements have been made for
a special wire to ascertain the high
est market price of the turkeys. Mer-
chants here urge farmers to make
the number sufficient for a freight
shipment in order to make possible
the greatest realization for the grow
ers.

There he dropped to the steps in &
sleep OF exhaustion.
meanWhile Taylor had reported in
from ms own days work which haG
peen 1raught with almost as many
dangers and hardships as that which
nau expended the strength of his com.
panlon. Slim as he is known to
MS Fellows, realized that Daggett
could hardly hope to find shelter on
sherman hill and set out on his horse
10 rescue his comrade. 1t was !
o CLOCK IN the morning when he found
the spot where Daggett's horse had
floundered in the drifts and, knowing
that the only shelter was at line
mans cabin, he fought his way thru
the storm over the intervening wastes
1t took two hours of time and almost
all his strength to reach the shelter
house and there he found the half
frozen body of Daggett.
Rescued Companion
He, too, had dragged his horse
through the snow and, after looking
to its comfort, he forced the door,
dragged Daggett inside and, under a
cowhide robe and sopping blankets,
he lay beside his suffering compan-
ion until morning.
Repairing breaks as they went, the
two nen made their way home the
next day, arriving at the office at
nightfall.
The Vail medal, cast in gold, is
annually presented to such employees
of the Bell System as perform out
standing exploits marked by loyalty
to their duty and devotion to the
public service. Together with the
cash gift this medal will be presented
shortly to Taylor and Daggett by a

phone and Telegraph Company.

Reads Like Fiction
The story of the performance OF
Taylor and Daggett just made public
reads like a chapter from an imagin-
ative fiction writer. 1t emphasizes
not only the indomitahle courage and
|self-sacrifice of the telephone men but
the fact that except for their daring
and devotion the country would have
waited many days last year for re-
turns from western states in the gem
eral elections. They kept the line
open but almost at the cost of their
own lives.
In the face of storm which is un-
pjrecedented in the history of a sec
tion known nationally as a blizzard
center Daggart, who now lives in
Cheyenne on foot to clear trouble on
the transcontinental line. He was
unfamiliar with the country but of
fered to make the attempt in the face
of dangers which were too great for
men more experienced with the storm
stricken plains.
After climbing pole after pole in an
ll-mlle Journey during which he re-
paired all breaks, Daggett obtained
horse. The storm increased in
violence and the temperature steadi-
ly dropped but he kept on, often find
ing the next pole with difficulty
through the mounting drifts. The
day passed and after nightfall he
kept on. He had had no food for
IL hours and was at the verge of
exhaustion but there was more work
TO do and he knew that all trouble
mad to be cleared if the line of COM
between the east and the
west coasts was to be kept open. He
had to abandon his horse and trudge
three miles of deepening
snow to reach the last case of trouble
but he had volunteered to do the
whole job and he did not stop.
Daggett Is Exhausted
Daggett was ready to drop in his
tracks when he returned to his horse
but he dug the animal out and start
ed out to find an isolated cabin of
which he had been told. However, |
when he left the telephone line, the
only landmark upon which he could |
depend, he wandered aimlessly in the
1r1ftS. When ready to surrender to |
me elements he came upon the cabin.
First stabling his horse he made his
way to the door only to find it locked.
