&fe"SrAKEWELL!" I said to the friend I loved and my eyes were filled with
" tears; '"T know you'll come to any heart again in a few brief hurried
years!" Ah many come up t'he garden path and knock at niy cottage
door but the friend I loved when my heart was young comes back to that heart
no more. "Farewell!" I cried to the gentle bird whose music had filled the dawn;
'you fly away but you'll sing again when the winter's
snows are gone." Ah the bright birds sway on the apple-
boughs and sing as they sang before; but the bird I
loved with t'he golden voice shall sing to my heart no
more! "Farewell!" I said to the Thomas Cat I threw in
the gurgling creek all weighted down with a smoothing
iron and a hunderweight of brick. "You'll not come back if I know myself from
the silent sunless shore!" Then I journeyed home and that blamed old cat was
there by the kitchen door!

Commonsense About Rates
SENATOR ELKINS in the debate on the new railroad bill sums up the general
situation in a masterly way and gives the senate and the country more
wholesome advice and information in his brief talk than many of the senators
have in hours and days of speech making. A rapid summary of his points with-
out even using quotation marks will be of interest to every business man and
especially to all who have to do with railroad shipping and railroad rates. Mr.
Elkins states the case not only from the standpoint of the railroad but of the
commercial centers and especially of the consumers. v
The Herald has often pointed out that El Paso is enjoying many of the bene-
fits of a seaport and all the benefits of a highly competitive interior point ter-
minal and railway interchange. This city is not to be classed with such cities
as Spokane Salt Lake City Denver Cheyenne and Boise but rather with the
great interior markets like St. Louis and Kansas City and with the seaports.
"We have nothing to gain by joining in the campaign inaugurated by other
Rocky mountain interior cities. It is to our great interest that the long and
short haul clause be retained as it was in the old law for we have had and are
Laving the benefit of the application of that part of the law.
As senator Elkins points out low rates to distant points have built up the
commerce of this country. If we had established a mileage basis 50 years ago
the map of this country would have been different. To change now would be
disastrous to great communities and revolutionize the business of the country.
Generally sections and communities cannot consume all they produce- They must
have markets for their surplus. They must have lower rates to the important
centers than to intermediate points because they could not dispose of their surplus
otherwise.
This is the onlv basis on which to establish and build up our commerce. The
laws of nature and of business development cannot be changed by legislation j
The surplus products of Utah Washington Montana Kansas and Iowa and of
New York Chicago Boston St. Louis and Birmingham would never rind an outlet
if it were not for the long and short haul clause.
Some senators intimate that a railroad should get only 5 percent on its cost
and that this is enough for a railroad to make. Building railroads is full of risk-
There is a margin of risk and there should be a margin of profit. Will a man put
his money in a railroad if he will not have As fair a chance as the man who puts
it in real estate in New York or any other great city? No man is going to put
his money in a railroad and let another man or the government who has no
interest not a dollar invested fir the price of transportation. This would stop
railroad building and would in the end aid the present great railroad monopolies.
Nobody is going to build a railroad and take the risk of' making only 5 percent.
An investor would prefer buying 5 percent bonds and doing nothing.
Regulate the business of the railroads but leave their management to the
owners of the railroads whose money is at stake. We all want every abuse cor-
rected but in doing this let us not make the investment in railroads so doubtful
that capital will seek other channels of investment or the further building of
railroads stop. Under the present law the rates shall not be "unreasonable";
that is a sufficient protection and the long and short haul clause of the present
law should not be changed.

THE STORY OF A LITTLE BOY AND TYPHOID.
By Miss H. Grace .Franklin Dld'ir Woman's Charity Association School
For Mothers.
The housefly is responsible for more
infectious diseases such as tuberculosis
typhoid and cholera infantum than all
other agencies of transmission com-
bined. I could not put away that
thought yesterday as we watched Sal-
vador Marujo fight the flies that lighted
on his little hands and face and would
not let him sleep.
Salvador Is just four years old and
has typhoid fever. "When he is well he
Is the Jim Jeffries of the canaJ for he
has a reputation as a fighter; he. has
also inherited some of the brigand i
spirit of old Spain his best-loved play-
thing being a little pistol. He likes to
talk and he likes to have his hand held
just the same as any other sick little
boy and to one who loves little boys is
just as sweet and loving as any found in
the palatial homes of the rich.
He is very sick and had been without
a doctor for five days as the family is
very poor. The city health department
Is doing everything in its power to stop
the spread of smallpox and while as-
sistant city health officer A H. Butler
was out on a still hunt for smallpox
(and by the way he found five cases
hidden awa3r in an adobe) he also fourfd
something else he found Salvador. The
little typhoid case now has a doctor
giving him every attention and he is
also being aided by fthe "Save ti
Babies fund" in his fight for life.
He has milk $b drink broth to sup
distilled water and plenty of ice to cool
his hot feverish little mouth. He will
also have a netting to keep away the
flies and daily visits- to instruct his
mother and grandmother just how to
care for him all these the gifts of El
Paso friends. Would you believe that J
these poor people are ignorant or uiw
simplest methods in caring for the sick?
They did not even understand how to
prepare cracked ice.
When I first visited him he was very
shy and did not want to be bathed but
today It Is very pleasant indeed when
one ds going to hear him call out "No
me amandone ud."
At the Clinic.
Eighty-one babies have visited the
dispensary the past week and Dr.
Kluttz has had his hands full. Dr. J.
A. Rawlings visited the clinic Tues-
day morning and was much surprised
to see so many different diseases rep-
resented and the apparent interest dis-
played by the mothers. All of the
mod'cines are now dispensed from the
Children's Class; this will mean a great
saving of life for every case can be at-
tended to without delay.
The scale recently donated is one of
the most useful .rticles we have and
today registered tthe fact that Dr. Kluttz
has under his care a sixmonthold baby
weighing but six pounds. "We wonder
what the baby must have weighed when
it was being fed on the bottle and was
slowly dying of inanition. Dr. Kluttz
took the mother in charge and after
careful treatment she is now able to
breastfeed her baby. Supplies for the
babies have been received from L. Bur-
dick and the Sunshine society.
Nearly 1300 citizens of El Paso residing in the southern part of the city
protested in writing against the location in that section of the new stockyards.
Very little importance seems to have been attached by the city council to the
protest of so many citizens many of them taxpayers. It is not clear to the average
man why these stockyards could not have been placed outside of the city limits
in a section where they would not be a menace to the health of the people and I lecture.

Murderer Traced to El Paso. ' axiWjK
Number of Boys Arrested.
J. F. Blanther who is suspected of
the murder of Mrs. Langfeldt at San
Francisco has been traced to El Paso
and is believed to have gone to Mex-
ico. A number of small boys were arrested
this afternoon while throwing stones at
the courthouse. They were taken to
the county jail and dismissed after a

. . o-
State Fire Board's Policy
'1SPz P?icy i theboard is that the people are entitled to as lovr an average
rate tlirQFgghout the state as has heretofore been paid.
"Tills ioard intends that the law shall not be used a.s a means for the
companies "to collect excessive Insurance rates from any class of business.
"It Is the Intention Y the board that the citizens shall be treated fairly In
this matter."
THE paragraphs just quoted from a letter to The Herald from the state fire
rating board indicate clearly the lines along which EI Paso's efforts to
secure readjustment of rates should be directed. It is obvious from the
emphatic declaration on behalf of the state board that the insurance companies are
not going to receive from the board any sanction for acts resulting in imposing
nnjust burdens upon the people of the state. EI Paso may be in a particularly
fortunate position to lead this statewide protest for this city is an exceptionally
good fire insurance risk and it has been subjected to new ratings out of all
reason because wholly disproportionate to the actual risks involved.
The fire insurance- people in some cases seek to justily their action by saying
that they are not responsible for the final results as to rate making inasmuch as
El PasoTs rate and the rate on individual mercantile risks are merely the results
of the application of the schedule which has been filed with the state rating
board by all the companies. The insurance men talk about that famous schedule
book of rates as if it were some holy thing that came by direct inspiration from
the gods and that could not be wrong in any respect and that could not be sub-
jected to just criticism- Our "position on the contrary is that a basis schedule
which results in such exorbitant rates when applied is in itself wrong and should
be modified. '
Even now the companies might fend off the movement to repeal the law if
they would radically revise the rate schedule so as to bring the individual rates
down somewhere near the average where they stood before. It is evident that
the state board does not intend to allow the insurance companies to raise the
average rates. This is what the companies have sought to do to a most extra-
ordinary degree and El Paso is only backing up the board in enforcing the policy
so definitely stated..

The National Association of Railway
Claim Agents meets in Nashville today
for a session of several days and many
matters of importance to the railway
world will be brought up and discussed.
For many years every element of ex-
pense in the conduct of railroad trans-
portation has been increasing. The
growth of the number and the amount
of claims filed against the railroad hav
been no exception to this rule. Today
there is a widespread tendency to cut
down the amount of claims accruing
from railroad operations railroad men
being of the opinion that here better
than anywhere else successful efforts
at economy can be made. They have
put it up to the claim agents to solve
this problem and the Nashville meeting
will be devoted to that work.
Freight Claims Heavy.
The late E. H. Karriman once char-
acterized claims and damage losses as
the most wasteful expense In railroad
operation. He said that while claim"
would ever accrue from the conduct of
transportation and the claim depart-
ment was therefore a necessary evil
yet this feature of expense could be
cul aown to a large degree and that
to do so would add much to the profits
of the railroad.
That he spoke truthfully Is shown bv
the fact that one of his roads in ten
years spent more than $10000000 in the
satisfaction of claims made against it.
The ratio of claims in proportion to
gross earnings nearly doubled in that
ten years. In 1899 for every 100 paid
by the public for transportation of pas-
sengers on this road $1.5S was returned
in claims and damages. In 1908 the
railroads paid back to the public for
these purposes S2.72 for each $100 re-
ceived by them. One can see where
the majority of claims have their origin
when it is told that of the $10000000
paid out $376G000 was for freight
claims. $1229000 for stock killed and
$4267000 on account of accidents in
passenger traffic.
One of the items on the program or
the reduction of these losses in trans-
portation will be the inauguration of a
campaign for the better marking of
ireignt received for hauling. A large
percentage of the packages offered for
ale at the "Old Hoss" sales reach the
auction room through being improDerl
marked. An effort will be made to have
eveo snipping clerk see hat each
package received for transportation is
so marked that it will safelv reach its
destination.
To Expedite Red Tape.
Another item which will claim the at-
tention of the convention of claim
agents is the problem of the expedition
of payment of claims. So much red
tape has to te unwound thnt m manj
cases it requ'res weeks and months for
the adjustment of the simplest claim.
In the case of large shippers where
there is competition claims usually are
settled with a considerable degree of
promptness because this is essential to
the good will of the shipper and th
control of his business. In these davs
when freight rates practically are the
same on all lines between two given
points the only inducement the freight
solicitors have to offer is superiority
of accommodation.
Rough Switching Responsible.
It Is estimated by many claim agents
that 75 percent of the damage and Io
claims filed in the freight department
stead of to the dining room and th1
railroad had a heavy claim to pay.
One of the frequenut causes of damage
to package goods is the presence of
nails in freight cars. In one case hun-
dreds of pounds of the finest coffee -was
lost by nails in the door tearing the
bags in which the coffee was being
shipped. In other cases barrels of flour
have made a streak of white along
dozens ot miles of railway track.
The Burlington railroad requires ev-
ery one of its agents to pull out all
nails in the cars. The Louisville and
Nashville began to do the same thing
In its Cincinnati yards and found that it
cost from five to seven dollars a day
to do it. Yet even this expenditure
"as found to be a cheap investment.
Rallvray Company Foots the Bills.
In a recent case a carload of flour in
paper bags Tas shipped to Washington
in a car that had carried pigs on its
last run. Of course when It arrived
in Washington the flour was unfit for
sale to Individual consumers and was
sold to a number of cheap bakeries.
The railroad handling the flour had to
pay heavy damages. It is believed by
many claim agents that a large per
centage of damages to freight arises
from 3uch causes.
Claim Department Gave Rebates.
In times gone by the claim depart-
ment of a railroad has been used in
the giving of secret rebates. With
stringent regulations to prevent rate
cutting no agent dared openly to give
lower rates than the agents of other
lines. Yet by a secret understanding he
could agree with the shipper to allow
certain damage claims which were not
just. In this way a rebate could be giv-
en and detection and conviction made
almost Impossible.
The interstate commerce commission
took cognizance of this situation and
made stringent rules with reference to
the allowance of claims. It keeps a
watch on what are known as "con-
cealed" losses. Shippers often include
higher class goods with those of a
lower class or refuse to give the con-
tents of their packages and afterward
present claims for damages to which
they are not entitled.
Shippers Often Responsible.
While in a great many cases the rail-
roads are responsible for damages sus-
tained and overcharges made in some
instances the shipper himself is re-
sponsible. -ot long ago a plow manufac-
turer loaded a carload of plows for Smith
Cross Roads Texas The next morning
h happened to remember that Smith
Cross Roads was in Louisiana instead of
Texas and he had the agent try to lo-
cate the car and start it in the right
direction. But the car had gone too
far and finally turned up at the Texas
point to which it was addressed.
It had to be shipped back to the
Louisiana town of the same name. A
freight bill of nearly $900 was the
result but the plow manufacturer by
an alteration of the papers in the case
sucuceeded in shifting the responsibil-
ity for the error onto the shoulders of
the shipping agen and the railroad had I
to lose xhe freight.
Railways Are Defrauded.
In former years it was the custom of
the railroads to take shippers' weights
in the transportation of freight. It
was accidentally discovered that some
of these weig?hts were very much be-
low the actual figures when the cars
were weighed. As a result extensive
test weighings were held and

The death rate in EI Paso's Mexican section that is among possibly one-half
of the population is higher than the death rate in an equivalent section in any j
other city in tne united States and that means that it is worse than the condi-
tion in any other city of the civilized world unless it be a few of the Asiatic cities-
Yet with conditions so appalling our mayor and city council approve the estab-
lishing in that already afflicted section of stockyards scheduled to handle an
average of 1000 cattle per day and sure to breed flies and pestilence. It is an in-
justice to the people of the Mexican section and a source of danger to the city
as a whole.
A Good Object Lesson
IT would be a good idea to take all the visiting insurance men to the scene
of last night's fire and show them what our El Paso fire department can do.
There "was one of the very few frame buildings in El Paso all afire and mak-
ing a tremendous blaze and smoke. Other buildings were exposed very close but
the fire was caught by the department in good season and prevented from spread-
ing outside of the building in which it originated.
It is a good object lesson of the efficiency of our local fire department as well
as of the natural protection afforded by our methods of construction in the resi-
dence sections.
Now that the wholesale liquor dealers are in session at Cincinnati the old
old question comes to the front again: The 'liquor dealers maintain that "prohi-1
bition does not prohibit" and that "prohibition increases the consumption of liquor"-
they say the same thing .about high license but why is it that all these different
organizations of the various branches of the liquor traffic always find it necessary
to take "united action against prohibition and local option laws and for the enact-
ment of statutes providing for moderate licenses"? One of the speakers at the
convention as quoted today in the news report of the meeting asserts that the
true guardianship of the morals of this country and ought to be in the hands
of the liquor dealers.

rough handling freight is bumped about

damage is done even to classes of
