Time and Grade CROSSINGS.
From the Philadelphia Press.

lne ELldoelDnla freSs.
In considering the grade crossing question
the point ON which the most stress is laid
is the danger of death and injury from
these traps. This is, undoubtedly, the chief
reason why such crossings should be abol-
ished as soon as possible. not only in cities
but In the country also. When Chicago
shows All deaths at the grade crossings
within its corporate limits In the year 1893
II Is certainly time that something was
done TO stop the slaughter. The death rate
may not be SO large in other cities in pro-
portion to the number of inhabitants but
IL is large enough to make a change i'm
perative
But there Is another reason why grade
crossings should be abolished, and that is
the loss OF time they occasion to pedes-
trians. horse-car riders and vehicles This
Is an item rarely taken into consideration,
but little inquiry shows II to be an i'm
portant one. At a recent discussion of the
grade crossing question in Chicago one Of
the speakers gave the result of his observa-
tons as 10 the delay these crossings CAUSED
He found that by watching at several
crossings for three hours that he could con-
struct the following table:
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1894-02-07

IS mere are about 100 grade crossings in
chicago. the cost of the delay they occa-
sion to vehicles, pedestrians and street car
passengers must be nearly $4,000 a day. es-
tlmating the value of time at the price paid
10 day laborers. But the value of the time
OF haIr the persons delayed Is probably.
worth several times that paid to working
men, so the cost of the delay must be in
creased by much more. Chicago is un-
douotedly' affiicted to a greater degree with
srade crossings than any other city. and
the loss Is proportionately larger there
But In every city where these death trans
and time killers are allowed there is a large
loss of time involved This loss, IL calcu-
lated in dollars and cents. would in a few
these crossings
In this hurried modern life every element
counts The man who can be prompt at
Work, at business and In meeting engage
ments Is the man who wins confidence and
clients. There is no greater enemy of
promptness than grade crossings, and N
they had never been the cause of the death
OF a single person they ought to be abolish
60 because they are murderers OF valuab Die

Why Not Plant Wheat +?

Does anybody doubt that if the
farmers for few miles around Sen
atobia should plant each a few acres
in wheat, that facilities would be
afforded right here for converting it
into -four Some enterprising man
or men would have the mill ready
before the wheat was harvested
Why not try it? Flour, it is true,
is pretty low, but it has to be bought
with low-priced cotton. 1t can be
raised for less than it takes TO pur-
chase it and there is no guarantee
that the price will continue low

gates at from 75c to 81 per day, and
the hotel rates are cut n half
The programme will include many of

Perhaps some of our readers would
like to know in what respect Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is better than any
other. We will tell you. When this
remedy is taken as soon as a cold has
been contracted, and before it has be-
come settled in the system, it will coun-
teract the effect of the cold and gently
lessen its severity, if not effectually cure
the cold in two days time, and it is the
only remedy that will do this. 1t acts in
perfect harmony with nature and aids
nature in relieving the lungs, opening
the secretions, liquefying the mucus and
causing it's expulsion from the air cells
of the lungs and restoring the system to
a strong and healthy condition. No
other remedy in the market possesses
these remarkable properties. No other
will cure a cold so quickly or leave
the system in as sound a condition. For

Down with the OIeO Fraud.

There is needed among our dairy
farmers more than anything else, a
strong, active sense of hostility to this
whole business of food adulteration
They are listless and Indifferent when
they should be wide awake against
this lnsldiOus cOrrupting enemy. 1t
ls a shame to the manhood of Ameri-
can citizenship to sit tamely down like
a whipped spaniel and let these foul
birds devour our substance and swim
die our customers without even show
ing that " e have any soul or pluck in
such contest. See how it is gradu-
ally destroying the business of the
dairy farmer. not honestly and fairly,
but through fraud and deception. The
Massachusetts Ploughman says that
the exports of butter from the United
States to tropical countries has fallen
off nearly forty per cent. since 1890,
owing to the competition of cleo. And
here we have dairy farmers by the
thousand who have not gumptiOn and
sand enough to sit down and write a
postal card to their candidate for the
legislature, asking that he pledge him
self to the enactment of laws forbid
ding the stuff to be sold in the color
and imitation of butter. Nay, more
than that, we have dairy farmers who
Will foul their own nest and go in for
that sister fraud filled cheese"
Can dairy farmers ever hold up
their heads and demand honest men
in Office, or honest men anywhere,
when they show so little care for hon
esty and justice as all this comes to?
Letters received this week from sew
eral candidates for the legislature in
Wisconsin inform us that they have
received lone or two" letters on the
subject and they want information as
to the merits of the question. If zone
or two" letters will awaken an interest
like that, what would a hundred do?
The dairy farmer who does not feel
interest enough to protect his consumer
and himself from fraud, don't deserve
the prosperity be wants so badly.
There are times when we must stand
up and defend our rights like men and
this is one of them. Whether you are
a Democrat or Republican, write to
your candidate for the senate and also
for the assembly, telling them in
plain, simple language that you want
a law passed next winter which shall
strip this cleo fraud of the color of
butter. Write your candidate for
governor and encouragement the
same thing. Pour the letters into
them like a snow storm, until they
realize that politics with you means
usiness.-FOrt Atkinson Union.
