Railway Accidents in This
Country are Rare.
Few of Many Million Passen-
gers Carried are Killed.
Different as 10 Employes-0ne Out
OF Every ABB Is Killed.

WAsHINGTcN, June 2. Especial. Rail-
way travel in tho United States Is not dan
gerous to the lives OF passengers, IL we may
trust the statistics prepared by the inter
state commerce commission and given to
the public n few days ago. According TO
these figures, one must travel II ,696, TAB
miles by train before, according to the ex-
pcrienoe of the past, no meets death In n
railway accident. In other words, in the
year covered Icy the commissions latest
report the railways Of this country carried
~ ,696, 743 passengers one mile for every
one killed. The meaning of this Is that
before losing his life in n railway accident
one could expect to be on the road rather
moro than 1876 years. travelling 40 miles
an hour, "a hours day and every day in
the year. 1t Is easy 10 soc that IL one were
to set out deliberately To ride 60 his
death" his heirs would have mighty poor
chance of getting damages from the rail
road company for his sudden taking of.
Good Records.
The number OF passengers killed on the
railroads Of the United States the last year
was only 10, and the number injured was
1878. In the whole country only one pas
senger out Of 1884. S32 was killed. In
New England one was killed out of 8, ,083,-
Eli carried; in New York, Pennsylvania.
New Jersey, Maryland and Delaware, one
out of 4, S97, ,9Gl inths northwestern states,
one out of 2,744, ,359. The highest average
was In the mountain states Of Montana,
Wyoming, etc, where one was killed out
Of Col ,256 carried.
New England has the best record, too
as TO passengers injured. The number of

souri,, Arkansas, Kansas and Colorado,

and Pacific coast, 94,005.
So far as passengers are concerned, our
railway travel is remarkably safe. The
average Is passenger killed for every 200
years of CONTINUOUS, rapid travel, and a
passenger injured for every Ia years Of
continuous rapid travel.
Dangers Of Employees.
But 10 Is different with employees. The
official figures show that one out of 483
railway employees of all classes was killed
during the year, and one out Of 81 injured
The total number of employees killed was
1871, or more than ten times the number
Of passengers killed, while the number Of
employees injured was 25,696, about IL
times the number OF passengers injured.
II the mortality and casualty statistics
be confined strictly to trainmen. the re-
suits are still more startling. One train
man out of 155 was killed during the
year, and one out Of / was injured.

STATE AID.

The second important feature Of the pres
ent movement for better roads is the agita.
tion for the introduction Of state road tax
This is rot 10 be levied for the sake Of
"bamboozling" the farmer into paying more
taxes for road purposes, but for the purpose
of getting the large cities TO pay part Of the
expense of building country roads. II is true
that the cities would receive a share OF the
benefit Of better country roads not because
the city people would find greater pleasure in
travelling over them, but because the expense
OF business Of every kind between the cities
and the country would. be reduced.
Massachusetts has levied such state road
tax for several years and has built quite ex-
tensiye state roads. New Jersey has levied
state road tax and has adopted a system of
building stone roads, by which the state
paws one third OF their cost. A bill for a
similar law passed the New YORK Assembly
last year by a vote OF 81 TO q, and the same
law has been before the Legislature of
Pennsylvania.
Our own state has given encouragement TO
the movement by aiding the construction in
soventeecn towns OF sample half miles OF ma.
cadamized roads. The number should be in
creased-a general enlarged system OF high
way Improvement carried on throughout the
whole state
Such effort, If undertaken during a lack of
employment, as at present, will lessen the
burden of the state in Furnishing criminals
and giving relief to dependents. II will not
be so much in the nature of paternalsm,
as an endeavor to promote the best moral
and material interests of every citizen.
