ANOTHER KIND OF TIGHT

| pon the assumption that almost everyone is interested in a fight rom the inconsequential tussle be- tween two dogs up 10 the dignity Of the recent battle over the control Of the Standard Oil oi Indiana-one is inclined to grow interested iu the i battle between the New York Central and the Pennsylvania railroads for i the de luxe travel trade between New York and Chicago.
 As everyone knows, the star de luXor" Of the Central between the two cities is the Twentieth Century Limited; which does not happen to be one train anymore, but some times runs in four and five sec ,tons" to accommodate customers. ] The report was made recently that the years receipts Dy this train alone topped s11.roo.uu", which is q sum biGher than the entire annual ,assenger receipts of some other railroads.
 All of which has been a terrible { thorn in the side 0. the Pennsyl- vana management. Who has not noted the frenzied efforts that have been made 10 WOO the silk stocking trade away from the Central. The vigor Where the Central told the world you can sleep" the Pennsy rhapsodlZed upon the clear pure air Of travel through the mountain ter litory.
 But the mountain air argument gestlon in the minds of the travel cognoscauti that " here there is pure mountain air there also must be grades. curves and smoky tunnels.

 One can get laugh out of ii too. When the E.

 One hears much about how moto coaches and automobiles are "eat ing into passenger traf1ic.'

Society is curious structure. Take the best society. There could be no such thing without the less good society.
 That is to say. the best society consists of people who wouldn't be anybody but for the people who are not in it.
 The social fabric as a whole. and in its several gradations. finally rests upon people none of whom is any body.
 This makes it very clear why the poor are necessarily always with us.
