TO THE EVENING TELEGRAM

THE HERALD desires to present its
i compliments This morning TO "A local
contemporary. the salt Lake Telegram.
Yesterday the Telegram announced
that the last dollar necessary to pay
or a mortgage on the home Of Miss
Lulu Johnson, a paraIytie. and most
deserving woman. had been raised TO
the efforts of the Telegram Miss john
son owes the salvation OF her home.
Some time ago one of the reporters
for that paper discovered the helpless
condition of Miss Johnson. Unable TO
work for q livelihood, and with the
threat to deprive her Of her residence
hanging over her head. the future for
this unfortunate woman seemed dark.
Today the sunshine is flooding her
heart the terror that numbed her has
departed and She is assured Of a home
FOR the balance Of her days.
Those of you who are fond Of calling
the Telegram a yellow journal" should
bear this fact in mind: The Telegram
has been doing something while you
have been sitting comfortably at home
or On your Office thinking about doing
something. IL the Telegram is 'yel-
low It is OF that "yellowness" which
does things and a little of that saffron
hue would very much improve some of
the newspapers and people who are so
fond Of cgiucising others, but whose
energy is exhausted in empty railing
at their fellows.
Again we present our compliments
and congratulations 20 the Telegram
and 20 Miss Johnson for having found
so stanch a friend Salt Lakes young

EARNINGS OF a RAILROAD.

.DURING THE YEAR 1902 the Penn
j. sylvania railroad earned $500, OOO,-

stantial prosperity that cannot be con-
troverted. for it comes from the records
Of the company in a report made by
the president OF course these are
gross earnings. hut. with operating ex-
penses deducted. a balance Of $SS,SS40OO
is left for the sinking fund and for
distribution among the stockholders.
That a single corporation could earn
so large an amount Of money seems
almost inconceivable. even I'm this era
Of great undertakings The Pennsyl-
vania system IS the largest of its kind
I'm the United States, with its nearly
1000 miles Of road. its 5000 loco
motives, 5000 passenger coaches and
207. 600 freight cars. And it's value may
he understood from the fact that it
earned. gross, $4,000 a mile Of track
during 1902.
This rs undoubtedly very much more
than the original cost Of building the
road other figures IN the report OF
President Cassatt are equally startling
For instance, it shows that the tom
mage Of the system has increased 81
per cent during the last I'VE years and
that the increase In gross earnings is
S21. 100000 OF nearly 10 per cent greater
than the earnings Of the preceding
year.
If this ratio Of increase is continued
It won't be so very long before the
Pennsylvania railroad acquires all the
money In the country, a consumma-
ton devouty desired, perhaps by the
officials Of that cooperation -------
