Less Repairing Required.
One other point Of paramount impor-
lance which attracted the attention Of
railroad officials specially was tho decrease
in cost Of repairs due to the use Of steel
cars. The wooden car kept in repair cost
the railroad company from $35 to $40 an
nually, whereas figures compiled from
steel cars in actual service showed that it
cost but from SO to SIS to keep them in
repair for tho Same period. This was,
indeed, q point to be considered. Another
point, which proved to be ono Of the most
potent factors in bringing steel cars to the
favorable consideration Of railroad officials
was tho life Of the car. The average life
Of the wooden cars which they had in
service on their roads was. in a number
Of cases, considerably less than fifteen
years, while that of steel cars. estimated
by their builders, would exceed thirty
years; In fact. they would outlive their
usefulness. Cars which were placed In
service six years ago have fully demon
strated the fact that they met the require
ments and served tho purpose for which
they were Intended. notwithstanding the
fact that they have been continually in
the hardest service known to railroad
men. namely, in the ore traffic, and have
'won their spurs.'

The Advertiser and Star have come
out in opposition to State funeral for
the late Hon. R. w, Wilcox on the plea
that he was not, at the time of his
death, a Government official In other
words, the two papers mentioned,
which are the spokesmen of the mis-
sionary party are, politically, fighting
corpse and insulting the memory and
good name of dead man. Suppose
Wilcox had devoted his life to the in
terests of the missionary party, hold
ing, however, only the important posi-
tion of Delegate to Congress-what
would have been the attitude of the
Advertiser and Star In respect to his
funeral? They would have raised
heaven and earth to have had it on a
most elaborate scale from the Palace,
accompanied by all the ceremony and
honors within their power to muster
up. The difference in the case is that
Mr. Wilcox opposed the missionary
party and worked instead for the best
interests Of the people at large,

1t is reported of the only Brown on
the Republican ticket that he referred
to his late opponent Wilcox, at vari.
Gus places where meetings were held
and speeches made, in manner as fol-
lows: What Is the use of your vot-
ing for man who is very sick with
one foot in. the grave, and the other
foot trailing after it?" That "one
foot in the grave" came true, prior to
which "she" was daily seen in his Of

it was none of our business; but 1t

Boss" Achi of the Fifth, who Is re.
ported to have made an open declara-
ton in front of the Home Rule head
quarters that he would pay $500 to any
kahuna who would pray Wilcox to
death. We know, of course, that these
were only the words Of peevish brag-
gart, probably too Insignificant to be
noticed, but death having since en-
sued to his hearts content, it is likely
that he may follow as fitting sequel
to his realized wish. Anger and lack
of influence may have been the cause
for these cruel remarks, but the wrath

those who would want to deal harshly
