In nearly all of the larger cities Of
the country the long suffering people
are crying out against the prevailing
smoke nuisance. There Is general
consensus of opinion as to the causes
and the remedy, but there is not much
encouragement held out that the nui-
sance will be abated. In some quarters
1t is claimed that much of the smoke
from locomotives Is due to the fact
that they are compelled to draw too
heavy loads. This, with the use of soft
coal and the lack of smoke consumers,
fills the atmosphere with coal gases
and dust in the neighborhood of rail
roads The smoke from manufactures
comes from the same causes Furnaces
are forced to their utmost, the poorest
quality of coal Is used, and incompetent
tiremen are often employed. The result
is an imposition on the rights of resi-
dents and a source of unhealthfulncss
The worst feature of it is that the evil
is constantly growing, and no effectual
steps are being taken to check 1t.
