Freight Rates Low; Wages High.
While receiving lower freight rates
per ton per mile than the railways of
any other country in the world, ex
cept India, the railroads of the Unit
ed States pay higher wages than the
railways of any other country in the
world, except Western
Australia
says the Railway Age Gazette in an
analysis published in its current issue
of a bulletin just issued by the bureau
of railway economics giving compar
ative statistics of the railways of the
United States and of 38 foreign coun
tries, representing seven-eighths of
the world’s railway mileage.
The article also points out that the
capitalization of the railways of the
United States, . 65,861 per mile, is
less than that of any of the principal
countries of the world, and is only
from one-third of ane half as great
as the capitalization of the railways
of the principal countries of Europe.
In the only country having lower
freight rates than the United States,
viz, India the cost of labor is so little
as to be almost negligible, and the
only country in which railway wages
arc higher than in the United States
is western Australia, where the aver
age freight rate per ton is almost
twice as great as in the United States.
Basket Tower» in Action.
The first basket ball game of the
season is scheduled for next Monday
night, Dec. 11, when the teams of
Salem High School and the local
high school meet at the old opera
house.
The Tillamok boys have been ' work-
ing hard for the coming game, and
those who attended the football game
between these two
schools know
what to expect from the local boys.
Other games have been scheduled
for this season, some of which will be
played in the Willamette valley. A
series of games with Garibaldi and
Bay City have been arranged and a
very exciting and interesting basket
ball season is expected.
The hall has been rented by the
high school this year and it is being
repaired so that it will be comfortable
for spectators.

Football on Thanksgiving,
There's only one way to report a
football game and thats with amoving
picture machine. The thrills arn’t
contagious on paper and you've got
to pay your little stipend and stand
on the line if you want to get be full
effect. There was a hundred million
convolutions, twists, wiggles, smashes
dives, trips, numerals etc., and the
best we can do is simply to give our
impressions of the game played bc-
tween the local high school and the
Firemen on Thanksgiving day. Most
of the players took home several im
pressions Varying in color from art
indigo blue to an African black, not
to mention irregularities in anatomy,
but what we have in mind are the im
pressions of the spectator which arc
happily not quite so elemental. In the
first quarter they just naturally jab
bed one another back and forth over
that field without getting anywhere..
It was the beef that held the High
School in that quarter, for the Fire
men were completely flammcrgasted
for wind and the Captain couldn't
speak the sign above a whisper. The
second quarter was about the same as
the first except that both sides were
getting its second wind and using
their surplus energy to grab one
another by the heels, hair or other
appurtenances. As usual some of the
papa rooters shed all kinds of croco
diles right here, but they failed to ob
serve any of the rough stuff that the
High School boys tried on the Fire
men. Both sides put stuff across that
wasn't creditable but in the heat of
the game a man is apt to bear more
or less ill feeling toward his oppon
ent who has succeeded in breaking
his head even tho it is done according
to the rules. In the third quarter. Cap
tain Driscoll of the Firemen got his
Dutch up near the enemy’s firing line
and the High School got the 2 and
only points that won the game. The
fourth quarter was another surging
affair, with charges and counter
charges. The score should have been
an 0-0 affair. Taken as a whole the
playing of the Firemen averaged up
better than that of the High School.
They should have won the game for
they had more of the factors of vic-
tory on their side than the High
School.
The high school has a few players
who are really in a class by them-
selves, but the average isn’t where it
ought to be. It is rumored that two
teams will play another game on
Xmas day. If they do, and the fire
men will get out and do some grilling
in the meantime, they ought to prove
a Safe bet.
Those Firemen can play football as
well as fight fire, ask the T. H. S.

If the fire bell should ring w ou 111
you run and stop
_ it or _ go and help
put out the fire? It is much the same
way with a cough. A cough is a dang
er signal as much as a fire bell. You
should no more try to suppress it
than to stop a fire bell when it is
ringing, but should cure the disease
that causes the caughing. This can
neitrly always be done by taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Many
have used it with the most beneficial
results. It is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often
follows a bad cold or an attack of the
grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching, An
drews, Ind., writes: "During the win
ter my husband takes cold easily and
coughs and coughs. Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy is the best medicine
for breaking up these attacks and you
cannot get him to take any other.”
