At the present time the ante of the eastern roods toward making travel cheap summer round-tri- p rates from Atlantic to Pacific Is that of hardly more than the roads west from Chicago If the roads from the eastern seaboard to Chicago made their rate cut as large proportionately as that of the railways from Chicago west there would be a substantial reduction in these tourist fares and inevitably an Increase of summer tiavel to Pacific coast points This Is all the Pacific chambers of commerce are asking To a man up a tree no good reason appears to stop the eastern roads from granting this request Certainly these railways cannot plead Inability to make a price which western lines make and have made for years They are tlie llne-- pf thickly settled territory producing business at every point They make no long hauls over empty mountains and barren destwo-thir- Pithy erts On a mileage basis the excursion rates of the eastern lines reasonably should be less than those of the western railways Instead of more as they are at present The importance of this request to the Pacific coast hardly needs stating The plea has united backing The western railroads of course are and long have been urging It upon their eastern connections The appeal has the color of right and justice A favorable reply ought not to be longer delay ed A CHANGE IN ALASKA (From the New York Times ) By an order

held undisputed In recent years the fclalpt to the title of the national pastime demand for participating In sports has distributed the national interest over a variety of activities While baseball may still be regarded as the national game It Is hotly pursued by growing Interest in golf The United States department of commerce last' year estimated there were million golfers in the United States There pne and one-ha- lf Ore more than 5000 goU courses In the United States which Is more than half the total number In the world The popular Interest In this game Is further reflected In the fact that 150 cities maintain municipal courses Tennis likewise Is gaining In popular favor with more and more cities courts as a part of their recreational maintaining municipal ' facilities Tliese'two major activities are Indicative of the trend toward participating sports The miniature golf craze no doubt was predicated upon a similar Interest although Its future is still somewhat subject to the course of the popular whim National Interest In football has cast a commercial significance over college athletics As a seasonal sport it rivals baseball for Interest find attendance Something of the national Interest In sports Is reflected in the sale of sporting goods which amounts to about of a billion dollars annually Notwithstanding heavy Imports we are producing 20000000 golf balls and 3000000 golf clubs annually The sale of baseballs totals 8500000 while tennis balls run to 10000000 In addition 285000 footballs and 250000 basket' balls are sold annually The Investment In sports Is founded upon the Inherent human desire for recreation and exercise It Is now regarded as something more than a pastime bestowing health benefits which may be counted as personal assets More and more the benefits of sports are being applied to all ages One college at least is urging interest In three sports— one the major activity of youth such as football and basketball and two which may be

Because there are a great many more men employed in hazardous occupations than women And likewise there Is a much greater number Of men driving automobiles Of every description than women Why shouldn’t accithe percentage of dents be greater?
