Railroad Report
THE interstate commerce commission is the real govern
ing body of the railroads of the country now, it and Jo-
seph Eastman, federal coordinator of railroads, and the RFC
which is acting as railroad banker today. So the annual re
port of the ICC is of interest to railroad managers, workers
- and owners, to shippers and to the general public. The rail
roads have been passing through hard times; but many of
'them are accustomed to depressions. In the '90's the Union
Pacific, Southern Pacific, Northern Pacific were all in re
ceivership and had to be reorganized. This was the last job
of face-lifting these roads have required; and all of them
are weathering the present storm successfully, although the
S. P. is still failing to earn its bond interest for the full year.
The feature of this degression with railroads is that they
suffer more acutely because of the competition they are
forced to meet. The commission report refers to this ; and in
its comments on its own inability to order a general rate re
duction refers to the cutting of rates to meet competition:
"It la obviously not. desirable to restrict this competition
Insofar ma It is conducted on a fair basis. However, before such
condition of fair competition can bo said to exist, it will be
necessary thaCthe various transport agencies pay the same
rates of wages for comparable skin, render reliable service on a
. - . non-discriminatory basis, and bear an equal tax burden."
Again the report says: .
"The competition of other forms of transportation has re
sulted both In a -material loss of tonnage and in aloss of rev-
enue due to lowered rates. The railroads find It very difficult,
' almost Impossible in many cases, effectively to meet the com
petition of tracks, particularly contract trucks, because with
Certain exceptions tlhe truck rates are not tilled with any gov
ernmental agency and the trucks are free to quote any rate that
- will obtain the business." -
These facts stick out now when organized railroad labor
is renewing its drive for a six hour day without reduction in
rate of pay, for pensions and .other improvements in
working, conditions. One is not unfriendly to the brother
hoods when-he points out that before such increases in cost:
may be borne by the roads they
" Savings that are effected through consolidations are at the
expense of labor. What the roads need is bigger volumes of
traffic, both freight and passenger. Part of the increase will
come as times improve. The roads may be able to regain
. some of the business lost to
go speedily if the competitors
ditions of competition as the
The commerce commission does not recommend ways
for improving the situation for the carriers. That is the
assignment of the coordinator of transportation. There is
certainly need for transportation coordination so that each
element may perform the function for which it is specially
adapted, giving the country an efficient transportation sys
tem. . j
Regarding railway freight rates, the commission report
does correct the general impression that rates continue at
. wartime levels. According to the commission, the average
rate per ton-mile is now 22 per cent under the 1920 peak.
A Co-op Colony . J
A RTICLES of incorporation were filed last week for a
,TjL local cooperative colony. The idea is intriguing. Exper
iments along the same line have been made in the past many
times. Some flourished for a time and then disbanded. Aurora
was one which held together for many years tinder the lead
ership of Dr. KeiL R. J. Hendricks tells the story interesting
ly in his book, "Bethel and Aurora.!' The Amana society near
-Iowa City, Iowa, flourished for many years, but recently it
has changed its status. In many cases these communist col
onies had religious ideals as well as economic ideas of equal
ity. The religion in fact proved to be a very cohesive element.
Some of them have been foreign language groups where the
language barrier served to insulate them from the rest of the
people until following genera Vons merged into the "outside"
as they learned the same, language. '
There is nothing to prevent such a colony from getting
'Started, The times are favorable for experiment Lands are
available, at low cost, living is cheap, there is a great surge
of sentiment toward a new deal which will divide up the
whole income among the entire group. Even if it did not suc
ceed over a long term of years it might enable the colony to
survive during the present distressful times. .
$250 is required from each one who joins the proposed
colony, which seems reasonable because initial capital will be
required. Uany communists think the thing to do is to have
a grand revolution with bombs and killings. If they are so
convinced of the merit and of the practicality of communism
why do not more of them do as this group evidently intends
doing, organize a co-op colony of their own and launch
their program, and let the Individualists perish in their own
stupidity?. : - '

"You are a great chief," said
John to CoL Buchanan. "So am I.

when those large trees were very
small, no higher than my head.
My heart is sick with fighting,

by." Whereupon he took his de
parture unrestrained, as had been
agreed upon.
The other chiefs, however, af
ter much argument, consented to
give up their arms oh the 26th
near Meadows, and to allow them
selves to be escorted, a part by
Capt. Smith to the Grand Rond
reservation, by way of Fort Lane,
and the remainder to be escorted
by other military officers to Fort
Oxford, thence by sea to the res
ervation. One of the arguments which
Capt Smith had felt himself
forced to use was that of the
hangman's rope should any oi
them be taken with arms in their
hands roaming about the coun
try. On May 2fth, as agreed upon.
Smith was at the rendezvous with
his 80 dragoons to receive them.
That they failed to appear on that
day did not give him much un
easiness, the weather being
stormy and the mountain trails
slippery; but during the evening
two Indian women brought him
the warning that he might ex
pect an attack from Chief John on
the following day, and hastened
to change his camp from low
ground to higher, and to dispatch
a courier to CoL Buchanan for
reinforcements.
The changed position laced
the camp on an elevation oblong
tn snape, between two small
streams entering the river from
the northwest, and with an open
surtace or about 250 by 50 yards;
the south side difficult of ascent;
the north side stm more abrupt,
the west barely approachable,
while on the : east the rrnnnil
eloped ently. Directly north of I
this mound was a similar one,
covered , with trees, and within
rifle range; Between the first
knoll and the river was a narrow
strip of bottom land known as
"The Meadows."
The night of the 21th was a
busy one tor the soldiers, occu
pied, without sleep, in moving
camp and preparing for- battle.
Early on May 27th the Indians
appeared in considerable force on
the north knoll, and directly 40
warriors approached np the east
ern slope to Smith's camp, de
claring that they had come to lay
down their arms, asking to see
the captain in person: but Smith
knew enough of their plans to
avoid being seised by them, and
directed them to - deposit their
arms at a spot outside the camp.
Foiled in their design, the party
retired, casting frowning looks
toward the howitxer, so planted
as to command the annroach from
the east A detachment of in
fantry was guarding the western
approach, with the dragoons sta
, Uoned along the front and rear.
All this was observed and under

east sua west slopes at once be

one side and by rifles on the nth

Successive charges were made
during the day. Chief John thun

aavantage on account of the in
feriority of their musketoons to

A number of the attacking
party rolled back to the bottom
of the cliff, to annoy dragoons no
more. Rifle balls from the north
mound compelled the soldiers to
use the dead bodies of horses as
oarncaaes; but no entrance to
camp was effected. -
Thus passed the long day of
me zin. Tne night was spent in
digging, without the nrnnr im
plements, rifle pits, and erecting
vressiworxs. inis was the second
night the command had passed
without sleep, food, or water.
On the 28th the Indians renew

Be winced, incredibly," she
gnessed thai underneath it all he
was as wretched as herself. Ho
had laid down an ultimatum. Still,
she had never seen him less the
old, triumphant Julian Eaverholt,
striking, his own hard bargain, ex
ulting in his strength and in his
power. This man was not exultant.
He was unhappy too.
"But why?" she asked him piti
fully. "Why,' Julian, should you try
to spoO my life?" '
"I'm not trying to spoil your
life. Im trying to save it for yea.'
"You're doing no such thing,"
she cried, overwrought and frantic
"You don't like Clark. You're jeal
ous. You're thinking of yourself.'
t His look f rightened her. He was
so strange and white. As he stood
up she pressed back and back. The
man advanced. He made no effort
to touch her; he merely stopped
before her and looked straight into
her fearful eyes.
' "Of course, I'm jealous," he said
deliberately. "Why should I trouble
to hide the fact? X love you, Pa
tricia."
"I know all about your kind of
love," she told him, attempting te
seem scornful and remote, but only
sounding frightened.
Ton know nothing about my
kind of love. I've never loved a
woman before as I love you. Don't
yon understand, Patricia? Pra of
fering marriage, I want to marry
you."
In other moods she might have
smiled at the phrasing of this odd
proposal. It was so typical of
Julian. Kin. Cophetua might so
have addressed his beggar maid.
Stm. Patricia did not smile. Julian
loved her. A .strange and twisted
lore perhaps, but the only kind he
knew. From the hall outside she
heard the slow, inexorable ticking
of the clock. She must say some
thing. Her glance was stricken.
She could not speak. JuHan caught
her hands and raised them to his
lips.
Tm mad about you, darling."
"You make it hard for me," she
faltered.
"It will be hard for both of us,"
he admitted, scowling, jerked back
to reality. StilL it had not occurred
to him that Patricia might refuse.
He said, "There will be a scandal
naturally. But, you won't mind
that, will you, dear?"
"I would mind," said Patricia,
"but rm not accepting you."
"You're not!"
His astonisment was ludicrous.
"Why not?"
"Chiefly, because I don't love
you."
"You're goingto love mel"
"No, Julian, you're quite wrong."
She looked at him clearly and dis
passionately.
"You and I speak different 'lan
guages. We think thoughts entirely
different. We could never under
stand one another. I could no more
love you than I could love an
Eskimo." !
"You're making phrases."
"Tm telling you the truth."
"But, not all the truth." His face
was dark with jealousy. "You have
got your mind on Clark, havent
you?"
"Keen Clark out of this, please,"
she requested, controlling her ris
ing? anger.
"If I can't have you." he declared.
The Indians expected to cap
ture Smith's command, and con
stantly called out boastfully of
fensive epithets, and such was
their daring that they crawled up
to the barricades and with hooked
poles drew away the soldiers'
blankets.'
By 4 o'clock the second day a
third of Smith's men were killed
or wounded and yet no help had
come from CoL Buchanan's camp.
For a time firing ceased on both
sides; the only sounds were the
groans of the wounded and their
cries for water. About sundown
the Indians held a council and
planned to charge the white camp
with their whole force,
"It was an hour never to be
forgotten a silent and awful
hour, in the expectation of speedy
and cruel death." These words
were in a letter of a soldier under
Smith.
But presently, as by the baton1
of a concert leader, an infernal j
chorus burst forth the war cries ;
of each band in John's host join-,
ing in one blood curdling burst'
of fury, and the rush was made
up the east and west approaches.
To their surprise, the soldiers
received 1 them with cheers, and
returned the charge. , The sirht
which Inspired the cheers ar the
charge had escaped the eyes of
the Indians,' Intent on the' bloody
sad desperate work before them.
