REroRT OF THE RAIIsosu CoVussIoNLE.-
The report proper Of thcR b. Commissioner
CNlr. Nicholson's first. bat the eleventh Of
the scnes) occupies part ol two pages Of the
substantial pamphlet before US The sub
stance of it as follows
have Travelled over the different Reads in
the State, and over large sections thereof on
foot, and made particular examination by all
available tests, as 10 the condition for public
and individual safety Of grade, slopes, curves,
track, sub-structure and superstructure, asd
have found more or less TO invite the attention
Of the proper departments to, as demanding at
tcntion, and am happy to say that influenced
10y q common prudence, and stimulated hy
superior interest, no lack Of gratitude or prompt
attention to the subject, has in any single in
stance been manifested.
Our Roads are really, and in comparison with
connecting reads, safely and obligingly admin
istered and operated, and with commendable
Eberality unite to facilitate the development Of
the power and progress Of the State, and seem
& hold such relations to each other and
the public as will guard against undue
monopoly or oppression. Many Of the Roads
are and have been making large improvements
ia their stations, manufactures and rolling
stock.
The immediate employees upon our Roads are
particularly interested in such improvement in
the height Of bridges and above grade CT ssings,
as shall shate the peril Of brakemen on the
freight trains, which occasionally has proved
fltal to them On our various Roads.
Whether this evil will as a business necessity
regulate itself between employer or employee, or
whether your honorable body should interpose,
is submitted to your superior wisdom
Respectfully submitted,
d. T. NICHOLSON,
Railroad C0mmissi0Her.
1t is Of course highly gratifying to learn
that our Roads as really administered
and operated; but if Mr.. Nicholson means
to IMPLY in his closing sentence that the
evil Of Draining brakcmen with low bridges
is " business necessity We must beg
leave TO differ with him
