WANT THEM OPENED
Patrons Desire Use Of Stations at Searles
% and EchOlS.

Steps have been taken to compel the
Minneapolis u ST. Louis Railway COM
pany to reopen their stations at Sealles,
this county, and Echols, Watonwan
county, which were closed by the com
pany several months ago. Patrons of
the railroad have appealed to the state
railway and warehouse commission and
next Tuesday and Wednesday, May 10Th
and Goth, that body will conduct and
investigation. ~ .:..~ .-
In the petition it is represented that
the villages are in populous sections of
Brown and Watonwan counties and not
near other railroads. As they are the
only two villages on the New Ulmls and
Storm Lake division of the Minneapoli
& st. Louis system which are not pros
vided with station agents the residents
naturally believe that they are discrimi-
mated against.
At Searles, six miles from this place,
the village has an elevator, general store,
hardware store lumber YARD and cream
cry, but at Echols the people are not so
we'll provided for. The town has popu-
lation of twelve and the principal bust
ness is transacted at an elevator and the
creamery. Both stations were closed be-
cause there was not business enough to
warrant the railway company IN keep
idg agents. .~.

Beauties Several Streets.

Otto Schell has recently completed a
very public spirited work. Recently he
caused trees to be planted along several
streets In the southern part of the city
andin few years the effect of the i'm
provements will he noticeable. When
Mr.. Scbell observed his arbnr day he
began at point near the bridge leading
to Hunters Rest. Trees were planted
along both sides of Eighteenth South
street in an easterlv direction to Broad
way and thence north on that thorough
fare to Sixteenth south street. Pre-
cautions against cattle were taken by
erecting shields about the young trees
and Mr.. Schell is confident that within q
few years the drive to the Schell brewery
will be one of the most beautiful in the
state. He speaks of his efforts in this
direction as an object lesson IN ooule-
vardlng, believing that the example
could be followed to advantage in other
parts of the city.

Public heating plants, such as pro-
posed at the meeting Of the Commercial
Union last Friday night have been
in operation in many cities for several
years. In St. Paul, for instance, one
plant heats many of the larger build
ings, but they are plants built expressly
for that purpose. Whether the exhaust
from the city plant in this city would
be sufficient for the buildings as thew
are built here, is a question. 1t would
be great thing for the city if it could
be made practical.

Two lives stand out prominently be-
fore the people of this state made very
manifest by recent occurrences: one the
life of the late Alexander Ramsey beau
t;ful in its simplicity and as pure as
falls to the lot of erring mankind; and
the other that of DR.. Ames the noble
traits of whose character strive to hide
the bemishes Of his life even after he
has sunk beneath the quagmire of a
Slough of corruption that is sufficient to
Sabliterate all the coed he ever did.
Seldom are two lives brought into so
great prominence in public life at the
same time, and he is thoughtless
youth who fails to heed the great lesson
pictured in the ending of each. "

The city Is to be congratulated upon
the public spirit that possesses e. A..
Ottomeyer and the earnest interest he
takes IN affairs that mean more to the
people than to himself. His recent
proposition to raise money to carry on
the public library is deserving of much
praise. The fact that the library, meager
as it is, IS patronized almost to its
limit should encourage people to assist
it and IN the event of any person having
readable books that would add to the
usefulness of they library the would be
doing the public favor by donating
them for the use of the library

TERRIBLE RISKS
Will Be Taken if Trains Are to Run at
100 Miles an Hour.

From the Engineering News.
The German engineers are spending a
large amount of time and money on expert
ments whose aim is the production of an
electric or steam locomotive which can run
100 miles an hour. According to n cable dis
patch they succeeded last week for the first
time in reaching 100 miles an hour speed
but the question which naturally suggests
itself to railway engineers in the United
States is. who wants to travel at such
speeds? Side by side with the speed records
of this German experiment we would set
the discussion which took place on the To-
cation OF distant signals at the recent meet
ing of the Railway Signaling Club, reported
in our last issue. The signal engineer of
a leading railroad there stated that he had
not been able to work satisfactorily me-
chanical signal with a greater length of
wire than 1900 feet
1t is well known that if trains are to be
run with safety under the block signal sys-
TEN the spacing of the distant signal from
I he home must be proportional to the speed
of the fastest trains. The distant signal
tells the engine runner that the home sig
nal STANDS at danger and that he must stop
his train before reaching it, and the faster
the train is running the further back must
this information be given him, With pres
ent train speeds it is not uncommon to
place the distant signal 25Oo feet back of
the home; and If this is proper distance
ioi lFdilS, tl.eI lOF
100 miles an hour the distant signal ought
to he placed at least 1900 feet sback.
But trains are run large share of the
time when the signal cannot be made out
at COO feet or anything like that distance.
They are often run when a semaphore cam
not be clearly seen till one is within, say,
$50 feet. Under such conditions the engine
runner would have just one and one-half
seconds to decide whether his train were
dashing on to safety or destruction.
Numerous other considerations might be
cited to show that. whether 1t he Fpractica-
bic or not to attain 100 miles an hour in a
burst OF speed, 1t is not practicable on rail-
ways carrying a general traffic to run
trains at speeds very much in excess of
the highest now attained. If trains are to
be run at 100 miles hour then it must be
on road built for them alone, from which
all other traffic is excluded. Numerous at
tempts have been made to show that such
a railway would be paying enterprise but
the capitalists have never been convinced
The mere fact that the Germans have at
tanned over 100 miles an hour on their ex-
perimental road, therefore proves nothing
as to the practicability of adopting such
speeds

AT ALASKAN TRIBUNAL
THE RECRUDEsCENCE OF LONDON
GOES ON RAPIDLY.
Old Hotels and Theaters Disappearing
and New Buildings Being Con-
structed Everywhere.
Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.


LONDON, September so, 1908.
English barristers have had an opportU-
rity in tie past week of comparing their
own forensic methods with those Of the
american bar, if the forensic style of Mr..
L. T. Watson, the leader for the United
States before the Alaskan boundary tr:-
hunal, lie taken as typical Mr.. watson
followed the attorney general, who was on
his feet for a week, and no greater con-
trast in forensic style could be imagined.
The attorney general is the embodiment
of cultured and dignifed incisiveness, well
reasoned withal. MIR. Watsons style is
free and easy, if vigorous at times: For
four days he has been presenting the Amer
lean case TO the tribunal over which Lord
Alverstone presides, and concluded his
speech on Monday
The Yorkshire Post refers to Mr. Watson
as follows His style is terse. and his
crisp sentences come readily enough to his

himself that the commissioners have seized

or beating it against his trousers. The eff
feet produced is little strange to ears and
eyes accustomed to the marked decorum of
an English court of justice. In figure, and
dress, too, the American advocate differs
widely from his antagonists on the English
side-the Observation-Disclosures and Gistin-
guished-looking attorney general and the
sleek and debonair Sir Edward Carson. At
the same time, it may be remarked that
some of our most famous lawyers have
been but little distinguished in their per-
son2l appearance, or in their respect for the
solemn dignity of the courts before which
they practiced.'
The American colony in London has been
fairly well represented at the inquiry, ladies
especially appearing to take an interest in
the proceedings which, to the ordinary
spectator, must be extremely dull. The ar
bitration tribunal sits in the large hall of
the foreign office the room overlooking the
quadrangle, in which Lord Salisbury. when
prime minister, used to receive important
deEutatiCnS.
