The national want Rt this time Ia not rail-
way transportation to the Pacific, but direct
to the ocean from the West. Every road con-
structcd from the grain growing West to the
Atlantic enhances the farmers produce and
cheaPens bread for the working classes Of the
entire country. The railroad Interest Is the
most important to the people at large. By II
they receive the two most necessary elements
to their being and warmth. While we
are opposed to granting Of the public land or
money TO private enterprise, still we see no
reason why any party desiring to carry on
the business Of common carriers, by con-
structlng roads from various points, should
not b. encouraged to do so, provided they
purchase directly from the owner Of the land
the right Of way and privileges they require
The fact Is sGlf-eyldent that cars drawn by
engines on roads laid with iron rails have

Portant points in the country he thrown open
by allowing amPlo chances for competing

why so many children die, and believes II
TO bc question Of grave social and political
Importance. The mortality tables Of New
York city from 1904 to 1853 show that Of
3Oo,Je deaths reported more than Atty per
cent were of children under Eve years Of age
Chicago, Philadelphia, Baltimore and other
cities tell similar story. In San Francisco
the ratio is only about thIrty-three per cent,
which leads our contemporary to think that
parents should send their children In the
