STANDARD TIME.
It's Origin and the Arrangement Of
It's Dividing Lines.


It's Dividing Lines.
Standard time is system arranged
by the railroads Of the United States
and Canada originally. The purpose
was to do away with the multitude OF
different "hmes" used in business
which affected the railways and in
operating the lines. The territory in
which these railroads lay was divided
into belts running north and south and
about Is degrees wide, from east to
west; in every such division Of the
country all railway business was to
be done on the same time, In the mari
time provinces Of Canada and part of
Maine the time used was that Of the
sixtieth meridian west Of Greenwich.
In the rest Of New England and as far
west as Pittsburg and Buffalo the time
fixed was that Of the seventy-fiftE
meridian, which Is the time Of Wash
ington. The next belt westward was
ninetieth meridian time, which is about
the local time of New Orleans, and
then comes mountain time, which Is
nearly that Of Denver. Still farther
west is Pacific time, which is that of
the one hundred and twentieth merid-
ian. Standard time divisions are not
just Is degrees from east to west NOT
are their boundaries regular. They are
mapped out ito suit the railroads., and
the changes are usually fixed ut points
which are functions for, great railways
or division terminals on the same lines.
Sun time is supposed by most.people to
be the actual Astronomical time Of ey-
cry place from day to day but 1t is
really an averaging Or equaiizing Of
exact local time, for the movements OF
the earth are too irregular to permit the
convenient use Of astronomical time.
Just as 1t Is determined BY the position
of the heavenly bodies.-Detroit Free.

test The more radical leaders asserted
that the laboring elements should not
stop at voting financial aid, but should
be willing to go to Jail for the cause
OF the trade unonist movement.
The delegates went to the limit of
their authority under the constitution
of the federation by voting for an as
