American Railways.

The report of the statis,ician cf the
Interstate Commerce Commission, who.
By the way, is Prof Henry C Adams of
Michigan University, contains some Curl
Gus facts and figures. 1t is shown. for
example, that I0l ,0e0e0 more PEOPLE rode
on the cars last year than in 1890, but the
average journey was not quite so long. In
1890 the average passenger rode 24-O6
miles, in 1891 24lS, in 1892 1882 and in
1898 9 81 miles.
One can uNderstand why the average
number OF tons hauled on freight train
should not vary a great deal year after
year, for the railroad managers control
that, but it is remarkable that the average
length of the journey taken by 593, $50, ,6l2
people-for that is the number of the pas
ssngers carried last year-should be soreg-
uIar. And another equally singular fact
is that the average number of passenger
on each train was exactly the same in 1891,
1892 and 1898, and it was 42. although the
passenger-train mileage increased from
81, 5,575, ,s04 10 335. .618.770.
In New England the average number Of
passengers in each train was 6l; in New
York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, IS
in the South Atlantic States, 10; in ths
Gulf States, 80; in Ohio, Indiana and
Michigan, 81; In Illinois, Wisconsin. Iowa
| and Minnesota, Al; in Nebraska, Wyoming
Montana and the Dakotas, 35; in Kansa:
and Colorado. "a; in Texas and New Mex.
leo, 81, and on the Pacific Slope, 81
In New England the average length o
the journey of each passenger was 10. II

Another curious feature is the even bal
ancein the proportion of the earnings frou
the several sources from which the incom
of the railway Is derived. In 1891 th
passenger earnings of all the roads in th
United States were 1854 per cent of tn,

As announced in yesterday 5 issue have
severed my connection with the DEMocRAT
after period of more than twelve years
as editor and part owner. With many
regrets part company with the old staunch
friends who have so generously, in oil these
years, contributed their liberal support to
the paper as advertisers and subscribers.
In conducting the editorial columns have
always sought to impress the public mind
In the direction of a better and broader
citizenship, to elevate the morals and char
acter of those who haye from day to day,
and from week to week, been readers of
these columns l tru1t am not at vari-
anee with the truth when express the be-
lief that the efforts thus put forth have not
been fruitless ones, The newspaper is OF
far reaching influence, and powerful ed
ucator of the minds of men. The respon-
sibility of conducting newspaper Is far
weightier than most people may ordinarily
imagine. Morally the responsibility is of
the nature of a public trust, and it is a
matter of grave Importance that the editor
should faithfully perform his trust. How
we'll | have performed the trust committed
to my aands is left to the people to judge.
In bidding goodbye to the thousands Of
men, women, and children who have been
regular readers of this paper, | earnestly
express the hope that all may continue
their liberal support to the DEaocRAr as
such paper is indispensable to the prog
