mount to 9,739,980,746 pounds.

pounds valued at $77,090,008 were

Transportation. Injustice
The letter published in another
column of this issue complaining of
arbitrary and inconsiderate treat
ment on tho part of the Inter Island
in the matter of freight delivery,
suggests a condition of things which
is indeed anomalous and, if actual,
calls for prompt attention and
speedy remedy.
If this were the only case of arbi
trary dealing that tho Inter Island
was guilty of it wouldn't bo so bad,
but apparently it is only one of
many indications of a growing in
difference on the part of this cor
poration to tho interests and con-
! .1 . 1( .LI-
venience 01 me general puunc.
Of course we all recognize that
the Inter Island conducts its busi
ness, like most other corporations
on a business basis and can't bo ex
pected to pursuo any policy that
does not pay, just for the sake of
being obliging. But at tho same
time it should not be forgotten by
even so masterful a corporation as
the Inter Island that the general
public arc parties and factors to the
success of anv such public service
corporation, and that discourtesy
and injustice arc bound to boomer
ang back in time, and bring their
inevitable punishment. The Inter
Island, to bo sure, holds the whip
hand, and can say: "Well if you
don't like the way wo do business
you can go elsewhere; so what are
you going to do about it?" In the
meantime perhaps we can do noth
ing about it but that sort of insol
ence carried to the extreme will
ultimately pile up a program for
tho day of reckoning.

A Few Questions
To be sure, no one ever asserted
that the English language was
logical, but, readers may enjoy the
amusing enumeration of some of
its inconsistencies that Life gives
in these verses:
If a femnlo duke is a duchess,
WouM a female spook be a snoochess?
And if a male gooeo is a gander.
Then would a niulo moose 1h a maniler?
If the plural of child is children,
Would the plural of wild bo wildren?
If a number of cows are cattle?
Would a number of haws lx battle?
If a man who makes plsiys is a play
wright, Would a man who makes liny Ikj a
haywriylit?
If a mirsvn who fails is a failure,
Would a Krrion who quails Iki a
quailnru?
If tho applo you bite is bitten,
Would the battlo you light bo fittcn? '
And if a young cut is a kitten.
Then would a young rat bo a ritten?
But why nilu on tho confusion?
Still I'd hko to ask in conclusion:
If a chap from Now York's a New
Would a fellow from Cork bea corker?'
