RAILROADS AND ACCIDENTS.

Corporations Busy Contesting Damage
Suits and Paying Costs.
Enormous. sums are distributed an
nually by the railways of New York in
damages. Every one knows the great
number Of trolley victims, but few
realize how dearly the roads pay for
accidents. During the past year the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit system, it is
estimated, paid out 100000 as dam
ages. The various roads employ a
corps Of lawyers to defend damage
suits. This stafr works. in connection
with a force of detectives or run
ners," who hold themselves in readi-
ness at all hours to rush to the scene
of accidents. They follow up all injured
passengers and in every way work to
reduce their claims. And, Of course,
there are lawyers who rush about quite
as actively looking up damage cases to
take on speculation. During the year
the value of all verdicts rendered in
court against the company was $780,
900.46. There were in all forty-slx
judgments. The law and detective
force succeeded in settling twenty-six
cases, even after the claims had reach
ed the courts. The larger part of the
claims were settled out of court, to the
number Of 1923. The verdicts varied in
amounts from $39.46, the smallest
sum, to $22,500. The sums asked for
varied from 81 900 to SEQ. 900. The dam
ages settled upon out of court were
in the majority of cases much less
than the damages allowed in court
The claims settled in this way which
became public varied from $25 to
$4,000. A law has been passed recently
which provides that unless the Appel
late division of the supreme court is
unanimous in allowing an appeal the
decision of the lower court shall stand
This will reduce the number Of claim
cases.-Chicago Journal.

PEOPLES RESTAURANTS.
Their Success In Satisfylng C''"'

Their Success In Satisfying C""'-- ~ r.
Improving. 49,
AS civilization advances, and the
sense Of responsibility in the individ-
ual for his fellows in cities increases,
the desire to secure adequate arrange
ments for feeding the people increases,
too. Indeed, in nations where the
rush and scramble of modern life are
less felt than in countries where COM
mercial enterprise has, quickened the
desire in the classes to grow rapidly
prosperous, and where, in consequence,
there is more time at the disposal Of
everybody to think out problems
which do not directly concern the
business or lives of the more prosper
Gus classes. there the problem Of feed
ing the poorer residents in cities has
been solved to greater extent and
on a sounder basis than elsewhere.
Thus, the Norwegians have an excel
lent system at Christ1ania whereby
every poor family can obtain sound,
wholesome food, we'll cooked and pal
atable, at very small cost, says a
writer in the Hospital. Naturally, the
same system prevails in Sweden, and
in the city of Vienna there is probab-
ly the most complete system of peo-
pies restaurants to be found any
where. We have visited all these
countries, have inquired very closely
into the systems pursued, and have
been struck with the popularity of the
provision made and it's success. both
financially and generally. That sue
cess is due to an appreciation Of the
habits and tastes of the various peo-
Piles for whom the provision has been
made, and 1t will surprise nobody to
hear that the kinds Of food and the
methods Of cooking and the various
articles which are most popular at the
peoples restaurants referred to differ
very materially In Norway and Swe-
den, and to a greater extent still In
Austria, when a comparison is made
between the Viennese plan and that
pursued In the northern countries re-
ferred to. Still, the encouraging fact,
and one which has constantly to be
borne in mind. is that all three sys-
TENS have proved successful, and that
their success is increasing year by
year.

he will lack the serenity of
mind which is necessary to the
highest interests of his employer
and his own future welfare. The

freedom of q City"

The so-called freedom of a city,
confers no rights whatever in this
country. Even in European cities It
now gives no substantial privileges.
The whole thing is survival Of the
middle ages. In those days no one
could trade in city except residents
thereof. The freedom Of city then
carried with it at least the right to
do business within the Municipality.

This attempt to win the South
ern democracy over to the doctrine
of protection could not have been
undertaken at a more unpromising
time, and the tone of the Southern
press, it would seem, must con-
vince Senator McLaurin of his
mistake. The drift of the repub
lican party itself is away from pro-
lection. The iron, cotton and oil
producing South needs the open
rather than the shut door, and it
has been rightly. remarked that

The indemnites which the pow
ers demand from China aggregate
$273,O00,O0O. In the present con-
dition of the empire, with its in
dustreal economy disorganized,
and the teeming millions in some
of it's provinces threatened with
famine, this is an enormous sum,
and may be more than the Chinese
can pay. Great Britain has con-
sented to scale down her claims,
Germany and Russia show no dis
position to exercise lenity in this
respect. They evidently want en-
excuse for annexing territory.

E. P. Hackett, who is known as
a level-h@ AIDED business man, has
lust returned from New York. He
has been wandering about Wall

no serious peril will arise to the
business of the country out of tho
vast speulations in railway shares
and securities, because, as Mr..
Hackett believes, that kind of
property is attaining its just level.
In past yesrs the country has not

a Tariff war may come, but it
will not be because the United
States provoked it. 1t will not be
because Europe feels thatour rates
are especially exorbitsnt. If such

trial success, and of our swift
growth in wealth and population
and the other logical results OF

Protective system. The real COM
plant of Europe is not against
our Protective Tariff, in which we
do not differ from Europe. It is
against our democracy, in which
we do differ. In other words, such
a Tariff war, if it, is waged, will be
rather political than ecouomic in
it's animating motive. - Boston

If the number of men attend
ing church is decreasing the same
is true of other gatherings. Citi-
zens do not attend political meet
ings as they used to, they do not
crowd the rooms when the school
board is in session. Apparently
they are leaving religion, educa-
ton and ethics to the women,
while they are giving their sole
attention. to mopey-getting. This
is not good, but it may be better
reason to offer for non-attendance
at church than the statement that
the pulpit lacks vigor and is grow
ing "womanish." And it should
be borne in mind that the women
are undertaking more strenuous
things shan formerly; they ure be-
coming more practical. The church
may be growing "womrnish" SO
far as number is concerned, but
surely not in the sense of becom-
ing efeminate.-Chicago Post.
In commenting on the proba-

Congressman McCleary in the
event of a successor, the News,
Heron Lake, says: 'There is no
question but what the district will
be we'll represented, and if it is
not to be McCleary, then for one
would prefer seeing Judge Wilson,
of Worthington, become the lucky
man. He is man whose ability
cannot be questioned, and if nom
mated we will warrant that he has
friends enough to see that he is
elected by a good big majority"
The Judge has many friends here
who would be pleased to see him
in the halls of Congressman. He
mas the ability to appear beside
the ablest statesmen in such a
place and would see that his con-
stituency was properly taken care
of on all questions pertaining to
their welfare.

tho secretary of war has come to
the conclusion that 10000 men
will be sufficient for the mini
mum of the army. The law au-
thorizes $4,000 men. Secretary
Root experiences considerable
difficulty in recruiting sufficient
number of men to make up the
10000 soldiers. He finds the
cause to be that active military
operations are suspended for so
long a time to come, that the aver
age American has no temptation
to enter the service. He wants
fighting and promotion. Ord
mary camp life is vecy
distasteful to him, Police duty
and vidette duty are not to his
liking. It is the natural instinct
of American soldier to be some
thing higher than a military police
man, After while some regiments
Of Tagalogs will be enlisted, and
that will diminish the number OF
Americans required for the army.
