another Temperance Adrocate.

Til Firemenls Gazette, which is dong a good
work in sleyating railroad men in this branch
of service, has come ont strongly in favor of
total abstinence from the tise Of Intoxicating
liquors. The August issue of the magazine
says: w have frequently hearditsaid, byen-
gineers and Hremeu. that they never get drunk
on duty, leaving it to be inferred that they are
free. to indulge to an unlimited extent when not
on their engine, This is q false idea, and the
brotherhood emphatioally denies that any loco
motive engineman has the right to allow himself
to become intoxicated under any circumstances
OF at any time. If he does so, he forfeits his
membership in our order. IT, at one time or
place, he gives to his passion such an unbridled
sway, what guarantee has ne that he viii not do
so at anotherY It is said with truth: PLAY with
the fool at home, and he viii play with you
abroad We cannot toe severely condemn the
criminality of drunkenness in men of cur call
ing. and we urge on every ledge in orr organi-
cation to punish it as it deserves

Freight Business on the Big -Four.

In the FIRST six months of 1884 there were
handled on the Cincinnatl Indianapolis, st.
Louis & Chicago road main line 81 9S loaded
cars. On the branches I6, 164 loaded cars, making
a total handled an the system of le4, I62 cars.
The total mileage of freight cars made on the
C., L, ST. L. 81 C. main line was Z,482, $50 miles;
on the branches 376, 852 miles total mileage
made ON the system was 1855, 43S miles. During
the six months cars of 142 foreign roads and
fast-freight lines were handled. Among the
number were cars of roads in the far West, the
East, the North aud South, aptiy illustrating
the extensiveness of the railroad system Of the
United States and the harmony existing in rail
road interests.

in steel rails. the outcome OF which must be
an advance in prices, If all previous experience
is Of any value. 1t is worthy Of remembrance
that the condition of cur s~teei-rail trade is not a
fair indication of the general condition of our
iron and steel industries. 1t is wholly exeep-
tional. No other branch is as much depressed,
because in no other branch has there been mani
tested the same tendency to overproduction as IN
this branch. If we could have been contented
to make Bessemer steel in this country by the
slow methods that prevail in Europe we would
not have glutted the ~steel-rail market as we
have done. But we had to beat all creation;
and now we must check up and go slow. Ike

Grand success.

frog, recently patented by A. b. PalmeftOn, eK-

work claimed for it, that indications now
are that it will eome into general
use, as every locomotive. baggage car
and eaboose should carry one or more of
them when in service. Mr.. Palmerton, the pat
entee, on Saturday returned from Altoona, Pa,
where he vent to introduce the frog IN the
Pennsylvania road, 7. n. Ely, superintendent
of motive power, was absent. but his assistant,
Superintendent Smith. was highly pleased with its
operation, and asked the privilege of Mr.. Pal
merton to manufacture three to test in their
yards at P1ttsburg, Altoona and Philadelphia
and on the return Of Mr. Ely he is to lay the
matterbefore him and report The Chesapeake q
Ohio people have already purchased tbs right to
use the Wrecking frog on their system. John

litans have purchased the right for Indiana and
Illinois, and will at once introduce the frog on

Cutting Down Expenses ON southern Road

Cutting Down Expenses on Southern Roads.
Hard times seem to have struck some of the
Southern roads. The Cincinnati Southern and
Alabama Great Southern have ordered q
deduction in employees and IN ~saleries of those
who remain. About q month ago the Western
q Atlantic railroad made a cut OF 10 per cent.
in the salaries of all employees receiving over $50
a month. The time of the employees in the Sleeps
were reduced to four days work in the week.
This IN itself is quite a reduction, but it has
failed it seems. to meet the requirements of
these dull times, and notification has been given
of another to take effect from the 1st of August.
The new cut is an additional 5 per cent. ON
salaries over 500, making a total cut of Is per
cent. on such salaries. 1t is also announced that
all salaries of $50 and under will be cut 10 per
cent. 80

THE point is made that if cholera were as COM

notice. It's rare appearance and mysterious work

IS more destructive than cholera, and is always

hundreds of thousands. EpideInics denot great
