The Gunman

The gunman shoots with won
drous skill; he draws his, .gat and
shoots to kill; for any small excuse
he'll drill a stranger through the
head; through movie fllms and
books he goes, exterminating all his
foes, and leaves behind. in rows and
rows, his harvest of the dead. My
nephews, young and tender swans,
behold this hero of the plains as he
shoots people through the brains.
and think him something fine; they
see him in the films, gadzooks, and
read about him in the books that
treat of murderers and crooks. and
death of swift design 1t keeps me
talking all the time to show the
gunman's not sublime, that in the
end his course of crime will bring
him to the pen; his finish will be
sad to see. and haply on the gal
lows-tree he'll have to swing, while
ravens three croak loudly and again
My nephews yawn, and still talk
until it's nearly II o'clock; a tawdry
bunch are those who walk along the
paths OF sin; beastly villain is the
one who grows proficient with a
gun and thinks it is sort OF fun
to shoot you in the shin. A better
thing it is to tool plow behind
sorrel mule than furnish carnage in
4 pool or corpses in stack: that
sort OF hero | detest who makes the
crowner hold his quest, who's only
working at his best when deadly
weapons crack.

EAST EXPRESS RATES
ORDERED INCREASED
I. c. G. Authorizes Higher Charges
in Section, Reducing Those
South and West.

Express rates throughout the coun-
try were ordered readjuSted yester-
day by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, which authorized general in
Fcreases in the eastern zone, approxi-
mating 8 per cent and slight reduc-
tions in the west and the south.
The decision was the result of a
general investigation by the COM
mission in which representatives of
state railroad commissions partici-
pated. Wide differences in rates be-
Rocky Mountain and Pacific coast
zones were ordered brought more
nearly to a. common level.
Eastern Costs Higher.
Fixing the basic rates in 1912, the
commission proceeded on the theory
that the cost of transporting ex-
press in western and southern terri
tory was more expensive than in the
east. The investigation resulted in
change in that theory, it having
been shown that the cost in the east
is higher than in the west because
of extensive free delivery systems
and extra terminal service at eastern
points which is not given so gener-
ally in the west
The present rates have the 1912
rates as their basis and include sew
eral horizontal increases which have
been granted since 1918.
Basic Rate Raised.
The basic rate for the first fifty
miles haulage in eastern trunk line
territory is now approximately ii
per cent. Increases have brought il
to q cents. Under the readjuStment
the rate would be approximately 26
cents. The southern basic rate of -
cents. which was horizontally in
creased to so cents, would be de-
creased approximately 2Sta cents.
In the prairie states the basic rate
