a higher standard of morality and thereby
give better service to oar employers, by
wedding out the bum, the unprincipled,
and the incompetent, and putting in their
places men of education, principle and
business qualities. We do not object to
teaching the profession to persons who
have the latter qualifications, but we do
object to teaching every Jim Crow kid
who sees tit to apply, regardless of his tit
ness and ability to make a success of the
profession.
Il The mention of the course now being
pursued by the Lake Shore & Michigan
Southern railway is an old matter, they
having raised objections to the order rs far
back rs two years ago, and instructions
were ut that time issued by Superintendent
of Telegraph Kline. instructing I'LL opera
tors to withdraw from the order or sever
no cause for such action. This arbitrary
action on the part of the Lake Shore
caused considerable comment in the daily
press ut that time, and rs result of the
adverse criticisms made upon the man
aoement of the troad, in an interview with
President Newell. and General Manager
Wright, published in the Cleveland Leader.
they both denied having any knowledge of
the circular being sent to telegraphers on
the line asking if they were members of the
order, and the following official utterances
were given to the public: 1--WE recog-
nlze the right OF our en-
ployes to become members of any
organization for their mutual benefit and
when they become our employees no ques-
tions are asked respt citing the association
which they may be connected with. We
know nothing about circular issued by
Superintendent of Telegraph Kline. asking
the operators if they were members of this
ORDER But subsequent developments
proved that they were as insincere in this
statement us they were deceptive in the
statement of facts given to the Cleveland

years has been 5, 100 miles annually, there.

considerably above the average and will in
crease the total mileage of the country to
more than 1877 600 miles. X
While notable extensions have been made
during the year especially in the northwest,
south and southwest, careful analysis of
the total mileage shows that most of the
additions have been connecting links and

TRACK LAID DURING 1890
Almost One Thousand Miles More
Than During the Preceding
Calendar Year.
An Immense Relative Increase in
the Northwestern Group
of States.
Largely Owing to the Extensions Of the
I1n>s 3,
Largely Owing to the Extensions of the
Northern Pacific and Great North
ern-Montana Leads.

As foreshadowed in our nine months
statement published Oct. H. says tie Rail
way Age, Chicago, Dec. q, the new railway
mileage of the United states for the year
shows quite an increase over that of the
previous year, agRregatinR according to our
present figures 6, ESQ miles. compared with
about 500 added in 1889, gain of $50
miles. Over 1000 miles of the years in
crease are in the southern group of states,
and about LOGO miles of it are in tie south
western group, in both of which sections
railway building has been phenomenally
active. The northwestern group shows
1,047 miles of new track-a greater relative
Increase than either of those sections, or
more than 400 miles compared with the pre-
vious years growth. This is largely owing
to the active building operations
of the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern lines, the former having made
having pushed its Pacific coast line close to
the Rocky mountains. Tho increase of
mileage in the Pacific coast states and the
New England and eastern states shows
about the same as last year, indicating
healthy growth of existing lines in the lat
ter section, with nearly two-thirds of the
increase in the former section located in
Washington.
We give herewith summary from our
detailed records. showing the number of
lines and the mileage in each of the states
and groups, subject to possible corrections

The advertisement OF the Wheeling
Conservatory OF Music, which appeared
yesterday, was greeted with delight by
those %appreciating the advantages Of mu.
steal culture. Wheeling has never had
such IN institution, though she has long
been well supplied with competent
musical instructors. Under the direc.
ton Of Prof. Arbenz, and with the co.
operation OF the faculty announced,
such a school ought to be an i'm.
mediate and 1attering success, and
eventually grow to be an institution OF
importance to the community. All the
members Of the faculty arc well known
as gifted musicians and able instructors,
and the class system enables them to
give instruction at a much reduced cost
to pupils, 1t is an assured fact that the
conservatory will open under bright
auspices, and doubtless the patronage it
receives will be in keeping with its high
deserts.
