ReTTER sYsTEM NEEpEp.

ANHEN 1T IS POSSIBLE for a woman
who IS desperately il to be left
for hours on the hard moor Of a depot
baggage room something is radically
wrong about salt Lakes method Of tax
ing care Of unfortunate citizens and
trausients. on Tuesday morning a lyo-
man who was travelling from point in
oregon to Denver arrived at the short
Line station. IL was apparent that she
was too in to continue her journey. AS
she was i0urneying alone and as she
had no friends here to care for her, the
train officials carried her from the
coach to the baggage room and noti-
fed the police.
This was at $50 O'Clock IN the morn
ing. The police. we are told. made an
EFFORT 70 find the city physician. but,
after considerable effort, the search for
that official was given up and another
doctor was summoned To his credit
be it said he responded promptly. The
woman was found 20 be critically III,
suffering apparently with an incipient
attack Of typhoid fever. The doctor
who attended her had no authority 10
was left in the baggage room while
some more red tape was unwound.
Al the end of the roll the police found
that the case properly came under the
control Of the county authorities, so the
county physician was called in. At 3
O'Clock in the afternoon, six hours and
"a half after the sick woman reached
salt Lake, she was taken to a hospital
for treatment The effect OF the delay
in taking proper care OF her remains to
be seen. 1t VIII not be surprising, how
ever, If the neglect to which she was
subjected seriously endangers her
chance for recovery
Nothing could more thoroughly ac-
centuate the necessity Tor an immedi-
ate revision Of salt Lakes method Of
handling such cases. tt has been sug-
gested that an emergency hospital
should be erected ana that 8 physician
should be placed I'm charge Of Il. with
such assistants as he needs. We doubt
90 there IS "A city Of the size Of Salt Lake
ln the whole country that hasn't such
q hospital; the fact that there is none
here falls not far short Of a municipal
disgrace. But. while we are waiting for
The hospital, there is no occasion for
making more miserable the condition
0f those who need immediate attention.
To should surely be possible to make
some arrangement with one OF the pri-
Vate hospitals whereby cases of this
character can receive care as soon as
their condition is known. If the county
and the city must wrangle over the ex-
pensc let them, in the name Of human
lily, postpone their WrangliEG until after
the patients wants have been looked
after There is always plenty of time
for Quarreling; there IS not always
plenty Of time for the saving Of a hui
man life or the alienation Of human
suffering.

RAILROAD WORK IN 1908.

DRACTICALL.Y COMPLETE reports
collected by the Railway Age for
1903 on the aulVunt OF railroad building
done during The year show that 5,72S
miles of new track were laid IN forty
three staAes and territories. including
ALASKA, where ten miles were con-
structed by one company. Three hum
dred and eighty roads participated in
the building. and an but q very few Of
the states and territories have at least
mile or two OF track newly built 20
show as a result OF the years work.
It is pleasant to know that the total
for 1903 is 175 miles more than was
shown by the preliminary statement
for 1902, and thirty-nine miles more
than the final statement FOR that year.
The greatest showing is made by okla
hcma, where a fraction more than 653
miles Of track We're constructed. Max
ing due allowance for switches and
double tracks. 1t VIII be seen that 50
much railroad building means the open
ing Of lot Of virgin territory in Okla
homa
Louisiana stood second with 1850
miles, ia which seventeen railroads par
ticipated. Texas was third with s7O.S9
miles, and Indian Territory was fourth
with 1889 miles. From that the build
ing ranges down to New Jersey. which
shows only one mile. Other names low
en- the list are Wyoming with three
miles, Massachusetts five, Alaska ten,
Idaho sixteen and Maine eighteen.
Our own state of Utah stands nine
teenth, five railroad companies having
constructed 120.52 miles of track within
its borders during the year. The build
ing Of 50 many miles of railway in the
country I'm a single year is one of the
best possible evidences that times were
good When money is tight it is not
possible to finance new railroad prof.
ects. Nor do men think Of building
into new territory. The year has been
one Of the most prosperous in the his
tory of the railroads and it is not sur
prising that they reached out for more
worlds to conquer.
The benefits Of the railroad construc-
ton to the country I'm which the work
was done viii come later, but it cannot
fail to come.

is now denied representation for the
$4,000 shares OF stock she owns i'm the
French Panama Canal company. 1t
would seem that Colombia has no
rights which anybody is bound to re-
sDect. The administrative council Of
the Panama Canal company holds that
Colombia is not entitled to vote its So
600 shares ot--tock at the annual meet
ing of the corporation for the following
vague reason, to-wft-
This year, owing TO recent events at
the isthmus, says a dispatch. "the adj
ministrative council of the company de-
ciined to admit N. semper Colon
bias proxy to the meeting, on the
ground that the original Colombian
bonds had become justly subject to Iiti-
CATION The matter is to be taken
into the French courts straightway in
order that Celombia's exact legal status
may be ascertained. We hardly see
how Colombia can hope TO gain any
thing by the action Indicated. Her rep
resentative would do well to thank Cod
that he has escaped with his life
OF course this is without regard to
the justice or injustice Of the PROPOSE
tion. The fact that the United States
has taken Panama away from Colom-
Biz naturally gives everybody q whack
at that republic. Those who fail to help
themselves VIII have only themselves
to blame. Apparently there is nothing
to prevent any one from running away
with everything he can carry. 1t VIII
be strictly in line with other proceed
ings in relation TO Colombia and Pan
anna if the $4,000 shares Of canal stock
are taken away from Colombia and Civ
en- to Panama, thus enabling the pro-
prietors OF the new republic to increase
the extent Of their graft
Meanwhile preparations are under
way at the various army posts through
out the United States for the sending
OF troops to the isthmus in case they
should be needed The administration
recognizes the possibility that Colombia
may yet show fight. and TO guard
against such q possibility the action in
dicated is being taken. Within a very
brief time we could send enough sol
diers to the isthmus to string a picket
line clear around it and effectuaIly
keep out any force Colombia might
send against them.
1t is very much to be hoped that Co
lombia win realize the fact that, to use
q street term. she is "up against the
real thing il she is wise she viii send
the Strenuous one an humbly grateful
little note FOR that ne has not taken the
rest OF the country.

about the longest search was
that very often the missing ar
