Jokes. During one of these pranks,
the Virginian encounters “Trampas,”
the local bully and bad man, and
makes him “back down.”
Deciding to open a school, the cat
tlemen send east for a teacher; and
Molly, a trite, lovely Vermont miss,
comes via the Overland stage. The
Virginian rescues Molly from the
coach after the drunken driver wan
ders from the trail. At a barbecue the
Virginian proposes to Molly, but is re

Eighth Conference of Western
Economic Society Attacks
the “Railway Problem.”
Chicago. —The “railway problem*
was attacked here today at the eighth
conference of the Western Economic
Society. While most of the speakers
were ready to grant that the railroads
were efficiently managed, Prof. W. Z.
Ripley of Harvard University remark-*
ed in effect that the bookkeeping of
some of the roads was more than ef
ficient-r-Jt was miraculous.
Investor’s Interest.
Professor Ripley’s subject was “The
Investor’s Interest in Railroad Valua
tion," and he argued that physical val
uation, on which the government was
spending $15,000,000 to $20,000,000,
would have protected the investor from
the stock jobber apparent in the dif
ficult which beset the New York, New
Haven and Hartford, the Rock Island,
the Frisco, the Boston and Maine, and
other roads.
N. Y„ N. H. & H. Case.
Citing the case of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford, the speak
er said that physical valuation a dec
ade ago would have prevented the in
flation of Us securities and the re
cent crash which, he said, had wiped
out the modest incomes of countless
widows and orphans.
Professor Ripley asserted that there
