OF Colonel Keilar it is not necessary
that we should ssy anything in this con-
necion. He has been before the public
81 long that heis too well known to need
encorium 1T our hands. AS journalist
ne Eaa made his marx, and as an indc-
pendent, vigorous thinker and forci-
bic writer, has made himself felt in
the policies and politics Of the times.
&r. Thompson, too, is we'll known in
Memphis. AS a journalist, especially in
the branch to which he has specially
devoUed himself in Memphis, he has no
superior. Possessed OF the rare gifts CT
endurance and industry, he unites with
them ease and facility IS writer, and
over all an almost perfect knowi-
edge Of his profession, acquired by
years Of study and devotion to it. We
are glad to be able to chronicle his part
nership with Colonel Kellar, reg riding
it as the just reward Of a devotion to the
interests Of the ApdtaHche, which We
know ne cannot exceed as proprietor
We corg atulate him, ard extend to

The proportion OF new railroad ws5
very much smaller last year than Tor
several previous years. The year Was
one OF general depression, and while the
traffic returns are generally incomplete,
there was in all probability less traffic
than in 1873, while on many roads Of
large business there was reduction OF
the average rates. The year was not
only one of light traffic, but in many
cases Of sharp competition for that traf-
fc ana consequent lower rates. AS was
plainly indicated, however, by returns
that we have heretofore published, it has
also been a year Of decreased expenses.
This result has been gained partly by the
general diminution Of the cost Of labor
and materials, partly from the more
general-in many cases tbs enforced
practice Of strict economy in expendi-
ture. Some of the decrease has probably
been made by starving the roads, which
is anything but true economy; but some
OF it, let us hope, represents real gain
in methods Of operation.

The changes shown here are an iu-
crease of 4.6 per cent. in the milage re-
ported, and OF 11.6 per cent. in capital
invested; a decrease Of IL per cent. in
gross earnings, and of 3.4 per cent. in
working expenses, with an increase Of
81 per cent. in net earnings. The per
centage Of working expenses to gross
earnings fell from 10 to 63.5S, the pro-
portion of gross earnings to total capital
invested decreased 11.6 per cent, and Of
net earnings 72 per cent. The average
dividend was reduced from 3.45 to 3.39
per cent. on the capital stock. A no.
ticeable feature is the much greater
relative increase OF debt than Of stock,
the proportions of the two TO the total
capital account being more than revers-
ed. It is, perhaps, little remarkable
that while the freight earnings show 3
decrease of % per cent, passenger earn
ings have actually increased by 2.6 per
cent, and are 27.l per cent. Of the total

In this division Of States, Maryland,
the District of Columbia, and West Vir-
ginia are included with the four esthers
more usually known as the middle
States. The western States begin with
Ohio and include all the States north Of
the Ohio river, with Missouri and Kan
sas, and all the Territories except Wash
ingcOn. The Pacific States are those
bordering on the Pacific, with Nevada.
While the amount paid as dividends was
equivalent to 3.39 per cent. ohs the
total capital stock, il must not be con-
cluded that the net earnings were suffi-
cient, after paying interest on the debt,
to pay such dividend. To arrive at the
average dividend which could be paid,
it is necessary to take account OF the fail
uIes to pay interest on debt. The amount
needed to pay interest would, il deduct
ed from the S67, ,042, 900 paid in divi-
dends, reduce it very materially. EST
mating the average Interest on the debt
at II per cent, which is probably not in
excess Of the real amount, and deduct
ing that interest from the net earnings,
it would leave for dividends only $22,-
263, 500, or less than One.third OF the
amount actu7lly paid in. The actual
dividend payments were 12.S8 per cent.
of the gross receipts, against 1915 per
cent. the previous year. There has, in
fact, been very little charge among the
