Railroad rate increases of about fifteen percent, effective March 15, will be applied to commodity shipments from eastern points to Pacific coast cities, as the result of a decision of the interstate commission. The decision was reached by the committee yesterday, in adjusting rates to a ruling which was made last June in the so-called inter-mountain rate case and established that the difference in rates between coast and inter-mountain cities, should be removed. The ruling, however, left open the question of whether rates to the coast should be raised or intermediate rates lowered. The case had arisen from protests of inter-mountain cities that they had been discriminated against by lower rates to the coast instituted by railroads, to meet water competition by way of the Panama Canal. When the railroads were informed by the commission that the rates were to be made the same they filed application for Increases in the through ratei to coincide with the rates to inter-mountain 'points. The commission yesterday granted this application. Colds Cause Headache and Grip LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE Tablets remove the cause. There is only one "Bromo Quinine." E. W.

The whole system of the German argument was "based on the assumption that the Russian Government would understand, but be silent and grate to the Germans for saving their faces by giving a mock democratic character to their peace," he said. Then came the decisive moment, Trotzky threw his head back and stood a figure of incomparable enei he said: "The burgeois Governments can sign any kind of peace. The Government of the Soiviets cannot." Handful Disagrees. In that whole vast assembly there was but a handful of men who dis
agreed. Trotzky continued, saying i that it was to the Interests of all other Governments that a non-democratic peace should be signed. He pointed to Rumania, where Rumanian troops, he said, isolated and starved and fired on i Russian troops and, for the sake of i preventing a revolution, were prepared to seize Bessarabia, thus making possible compensation elsewhere with a view to a non-democratic peace. He announced tbe action which the Soviet Government had decided to take against Rumania and went on: "Yes. we have plenty of enemies. Either we shall be destroyed or the power of the bourgeoisie throughout Europe will be destroyed. We have left the imperialistic war and shall never return to it." With regard to further steps he asked to be allowed free action. In any case he will not sign a non-democratic peace. The session closed on a note of tremendous enthusiasm and hope for the world revolution. The discussion today will show how far the Soviets are Look and Feel Clean, Sweet and Fresh Every Day Drink a glass of real hot water before breakfast to wash out poisons. Life Is not merely to live, but to live well, eat well, digest well, work well, sleep well, look well. What a glorious condition to attain, and yet how very easy it is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath. Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stagnant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning.- before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of liqj stone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast The millions of people who are bothered with constipation, bilious ' spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism; j others who have sallow skins, blood ! disorders and sickly complexions are ' urged to get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store , which will cost very little, but is sufficient to make anyone a pro-! uvuuv,cu vi aun uu tuc ouu JCVJL ui ILj, tenia! sanitation.

Trotzky's speech was a masterpiece of dialectic and exposition., and also of diplomacy, since he was able to aay so much and to silence his opponents without giving away essential secrets.
