Then they put up the price of milk, get id of half their equipment and lay pipes to keep competi« tion away. The people living in the territory served by the Northern Pacific and Great Northern were in the ishape of the people on the combined milk route, with this exception—that they couldn't go anywhere else fom their railroad service. “The trouble with the big financiers is that they, have overplayed themselyes.
