Boise, Idaho, July 5.-There have
been numerous group discussions IN
various parts of the state the past
week as to the best means of pro-
ceeding with relation to freight
rates. .
A movement has been under way
for some time to organize activities
of a more or less antagonistic nature
to the carriers serving this territory,
the plan being to take the subject
to the interstate commerce commits
sion.
1t has been pointed out however,
that those carriers are now engaged
in an effor to reconcile differences
with connecting lines and with ship
ping interests other than agriculture
These lines and interests, it is known,
would seriously contend against the
agricultural position unless some
advance understanding we're had,
which would not be possible in the
event of immediate appeal to the
commission.
Voluntary Decrease
The negotiations now pending
look to voluntary decreases in agri-
cultural freight rates, applicable to
the present growing crop, whereas,
it is stated, official action would re-
suit in a long drawn out fight, and
very expensive one, with the end
indefinite, and the only satisfaction
that might be possible being that
cleaned from the fun of a fight and
Disqualification.
Attitude of One Meeting
At one of these meetings the at
titude was practically unanimous
that if the Idaho carriers were not
seriously underwriting to make ad-
justments leading to voluntary re-
auctions at once, they would well
come an appeal to the commission.
Such action would relieve them OF
responsibility, and adverse shipping
interests and connecting lines would
be the contenders against the ldah
produce shippers in a contest that
might last for years.

THE PRINTED WORD

Does anyone know how many
newspapers, magazines, pamphlets,
and books are published each year
in the United States?-or, more in
teresting still, how imany printed
words are used in all these Dublica-
tions? Undoubtedly the magnitude
of them would be so astonishing
that our imaginations would fail us
in trying to grasp their number.
There is no question that the readers
Of today vastly outnumber those of
fifty years ago. The news paper, es-
pecially, spreads the printed word SO
thoroughly that almost every man
and woman unconsciously considers
it necessary part of everyday life.
This remarkable increase in read
ing has grown with the art of ar
tificial illumination. When, in 1882,
forty-One years ago, the first cleo
trio lamps, giving murky, yellow
light, began to displace the old-time,
feeble gas lamps and still feebler
kerosene lights, an epoch in world
progress was formed Here was
light switched on without a match
and light giving promise of almost
development in brilliancy,
efficiency, and utility. Every ave-
nue. of life has felt the influence, and
the impulse to read has increased
since that time in an unprecedented
degree. The development of the
electric light has been the means of
enlightenment to the world, in more
than one way
