PROTEST AGAINST
INTRASTATE RATES
NINE N. C. RAILROADS ALLEGE
PROPOSED TARIFFS TO BE
CONFISCATORY.
ASK FOR AN INVESTIGATION
Call on Governor to Appoint Special
Rats Commission Provided For 'In
the Act to Adjust Rates Will Make
Appointments Soon.
K&leig'h. 'Formal protests were fll
3d with Governor, Craig recently by
nine of the railroad companies doing
Interstate freight business In North
Carolina against the application of the
Justice intrastate rate act of the re
cent extra session of the Legislature.
The protests ask that the special rate
commission provided for in the act he
appointed to Investigate and adjust the
rates on a basis fair to the carriers.
The Southern Railway, the Atlantic
Coast One and the Seaboard Air
line, more especially, file exhibits
along with their protests that show
differences between the rates In this
state and a number of other ' states,
and the effect that the application of
th proposed rates wild have on their
earnings. All the railroads assert that
the rates are low to a degree that they
are confiscatory and disastrous to the
railroads in North Carolina.
The Atlantic Coast Line submits an
axhibk to show that the present rates
in North Carolina are considerably
lower than the rates In effect in a num
ber of the other states In this section,
and that the application of the Justice
act rates would put them so far below
rates in other states as to indicate on
their face that they are confiscatory
and disastrous to the railroads.
The Southern Railway gives a soe
siaJ exhibit that compares Minnesota
rates with the North Carolina rates
and aserts that Minnesota rates are
IS to 50 per cent higher on lumber,
lathes and shingles than those pro
posed under the Justice act.
Another exhibit sets out a large va
riety of commodities with compari
son of rates in North Carolina with
those in Minnesota, and is designed to
show that the application of the Jus
tice act rates would give North Caro
lina cuts In large percentage under
the .Minnesota rates.
There are also comparisons of Vir
ginia, South Carolina, Alabama and
North Carolina rates.
The 'Seaboard Air Line protest also
carries exhibits that compare the
rates in North Carolina, Virginia,
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and
Alabama, all being to the same end.
The roads that filed protests are the
Southern, Atlantic Coast Line, Sea
board Air Line, Norfolk Southern,
Rockingham, Norfolk & Western, Car
olina & North-Western, Washington &
Vandermore and- the Winstan-Salem
Southbound.

CHANCE FOR FOUR TARHEELS
Competition Strong For Position of
Collector . of . Rsvsnus at
Panama. .
North Carolina Is In the fight lot
.the 'position of Collector of Revenue
at Panama. There are four candi
dates for the position:, Charles N.
Vance of Black Mountain. A. C. Avery
of Morgunton, William Wilson of Hen
derson and D. H. McCollough of Char
krtte. .. s '
Colonel Goeth&ls, who is chief of
everything at Panama, wants a man
who is familiar with 'the Canal Zone
to have the place. He has Indicated
as much to the War Department.
Other states have candidates, who
are at Panama, and If North Carolina
expects to win, a united effort will
have to be made for Mr. McC Hough
or some other Tar Heel famlllair with
the Isthmus.
Representative Webb, supported by
a number of Charlotte citizens, has
taken up the flgiht for McCoMough,
Who is said to be satis factory to
Goethals. '
Secretary Garrison of the Depart
ment of War makes the appointment.
John W. Thompson of Raleigft has
already been appointed a deputy col
lector for the Canal Zone. .'
'President Wilson made an import
ant statement concerning the Inter
state Commerce Commission recently.
When asked about a successor to
Commissioner Charles- A. Prouty,
whose resignation has been tendered,
the President said that he had not
accepted Mr. Prouty's resignation and
would not do so until he found a man
for the place. iHe stated that be had
not found the man.
Two weeks ago it seemed certain
that ex-Gov. Robert B. Glenn of North
Carolina would gt a place on the
commission. Since, a very determin
ed fight has 'been made to put a-Kew
England man in Judge Prouty's place.
At the same time, friends of Commis
sioner Clements, whose term expire
next year, have urged the President
to retain him. The matter Is far from
settled.

"Down In a mountain town in my

a lean and sad-eyed dog. It was the
custom to put any newcomer In town
through a hazing process, and . this
was accordingly done withhe strang

smoking, a big mountaineer whom he
knew slightly wandered out and
kicked alt a lean, sad-eyed dog lying
almost at the stranger's feet.
" 'Don't kick that dawg,' said the
stranger, protestingly.
- "'Who says I mustn't kick that
dawg? demanded the mountaineer
fiercely. 'I reckon I'm , about good
enough aroun' here to kick anything I want to kick!' '
"Then he kicked the dog again.
' "'I don't want to see you get into trouble,' said the stranger, quietly,
'so I wish you'd stop kicking that dawg.' 1 ,'
. "For the reply the mountaineer merely kicked the dog again. .
"The stranger, instead of accepting the challenge, arose and walked
toward the hotel entrance.
'"Air you gine to stan' my klckin this dawg o' yourn without fltelnT
demanded the astounded mountaineer.
" Thet ain't my dawg you're klckin',' replied the stranger, with a
yawn, thet dawg belongs to you're brother Hez.', .

Before the Americans came the Isth

The French diggers of the canal were

a powerful incandescent lamp with a
special mantle, which is so placed Id
a cabinet he has designed that its
rays are immediately beneath a reflec
tor, t This Is made of metal, and the
light is forced downward through a
Series of delicately colored screens,
