BONDS will be issued by Secretary
Carlisle. When this announcement
was first made day or two ago it was
thought to be merely bluff intended
to head off Mr. BANDS bill for the inn
mediate issuing of s55,0OO,OOO of silver
certificates based upon the seigniorage
of the silver bullion now lying idle in
the treasury, favorable report upon
which has been ordered by the house
coinage committee, but it is now known
that Secretary Carlisle has fully made
up his mind, after consulting with
Senator Sherman and other Republi-
can leaders, to issue bonds under the
act of 1875 unless congress shall be-
fore February L, authorize an issue of
bonds, and, judging from the opposi-
ton already shown, there is little prob
ability of congress doing it. The au-
thority to issue bonds is generally be-
ieved to be good, although it has been
seriously questioned by few, but that
it will arouse fierce opposition in the
ranks of the Democrats and renew the
hard feeling, engendered by the silver
contest is certain. The lowest interest
bond provided for by the act of 1875 is
a thirty year per center.

A USELESS SLAUGHTER.

NO feature OF American development
either receives or deserves more admir-
ing attention than our railroad sys-
tenn. The most cynical grumbler who
raves against our institutions has to
face stubborn fact when he is remin-
ded of them. Usually, he is frank and
honest enough to admit that he has
only praise to give them.
The reports gathered from reliable
year 80, 139 locomotives operated over
168, 402 miles of track, dragging 1916
Gil cars and more than 81,OO0,OOO,OOO ton
of freightage. The expenses of this
colossal enterprise were s731, 1897 1893; 81,
$50 per mile.
The shrieks of these engines are the
heralds of the commercial and intel
lectual intercourse which Yields our
vast territory into the closest union
and gathers the wealth of the world
for the enrichment of every village in
the United States. Forests, fisheries
and mines, thoughts that breath and
words that burn, events making history
and that modern miracle, the news
paper, all owe an incalcuable debt to
our railways.
But really one is more than aston
ished, indeed deeply panied, to learn
that the number of persons killed in
the last year was 1929; injured 1881.
To put these astounding and melan-
choly figures in another way. The
slaughter exceeded of the war of 1912.
No solitary person can pass by such
statistics as these. They enchain the
most careless and move the most in
different. It is great and damaging
blot upon everybody concerned that
this useless slaughter should be allow
ed its annual massacre unnoticed and
apparently unchecked.
OF the killed, 1850, and of the injur-
ed, DC, lao, were employees. Many of
these poor fellows lost their lives in
gallant attempts to save those commit
ted to their charge.
All. this every day heroism, how lit
tie it is recorded! Not many stored
urns and animated busts in our Pan
theons bespeak death endured through
duty nobly done. Granted some were
victims of their own mistakes and care
less methods, it will remain the vast
majority died through no fault of
theirs. Many a war has been fought
and the victors welcomed home by a
nation, in which the loss of life has
been less and their endurance no more
than that of this moloch of traffic and
the noble conduct of those who are its
prey.
Railway companies are, as rule,
wealthy-weu able to provide every
continuance which decreases the dan
ger ever attendant upon rapid motion,
switching, etc. Should the lust of gold
outweigh the love of life? Time and
again more than one president has
officially proclaimed against this Gala
mitous evil. Had their words been
needed, practically acted upon, many a
home now darkened with sorrow
through the mangling, manning for
life or sudden death of the loved one
and the bread winner would have been
happy and bright, nor filed with anxi-
Gus thoughts as to the future. The
public sentiment of this nation will
surely demand that the future shall
see no such toll of wasted lives in rail
reading as the past year was compelled
to witness

The World Almanac, on page D, has
these words, "There are over 10000 cor
porations in the city of New York alone
and nine out of ten never pay cent of
tax" Now this is a condition and not
theory that confronts us. 1t is also
typical fact that wealthy corporations
shirk the payment of taxes when posi-
bic. The recent course taken by some
of the railroads of Kansas is a case in
point. Tax the people but excuse the
corporations.

promise well for the winter wheat crop.
The condition prevailing in the west
does not seem to be local, but all over
the country dry open winter is re-

circumstances will shorten up the crop
and ought to lead to an advance in the
price of wheat.

Representative Jerry Simpson made
the most powerful speech of the week;
he certainly got more applause than
any other two speakers. Mr. Simpson
introduced a shoddy overcoat, after one
years wear, to illustrate his remarks on
the wool schedule. He said the popul-

because they approved it, but because
they thought it an improvement of
about 20 per cent on the present tariff,
