 The number of passengers carried on American steam railroads is less today by over 12,0000OO than 1t was seven years ago.
 -Four times as many passengers were carried by trolley roads as by steam roaus in Massac chusetts In 1902
 In Connecticut the trolley lines carry 20 per cent. more passengers than ene steam lines.
 approaches steam speed. On the Buffalo and Lockport Trolley Road fifty miles an hour is the pace over some sections or it.
 The Geperal Electric Company has pre- pared estimates for machinery to develop trolley car speed of seventy-nve miles an hour.
 At that rate an electric train would go from New York to Frisco In less than two days. on the eighty-fifth parallel of latitude, car going at that velocity from east to west would keep up with the earth's ro- tation and beat Joshua's miracle by hold ing the sun in one place all summer.

It is perfectly clear, as it has been growing clear for several years in better times, that the old dependence of the west on New York for money to move the crops has come to an end, says the Minneapolis Tribune. It has been understood for some years that western banks no longer borrowed money in New York for fall uses: that they simply withdrew their own money from deposit with the New York bank. Even this was a terror to the specula- tors who wanted to borrow the vest ern balances for their own operations. This year it has been proved that the west can even afford to leave it's balances in New York, if the specula- tors will only pay high enough interest for use of it. It is evident that there is western money enough to move the crops, even without withdrawing all of the balances kept in New York.

Her Sweetheart Objected.

A Douglass photographer had a large frame, filled with pictures, stolen from in front of his place of business one night recently. Why anyone should steal sample pictures was a mystery. But upon investigation it was found that the picture of very handsome young lady was in the frame. Said young lady had sweetheart who objected to the public exhibition of her charms, so he stole the frame, removed her picture and threw the frame away. That photographer will cOnfine his exhibits to old maids and children in the future.
