THE MAGAZINES

Disregard of Rules Causes Railway Ac-
cldents.-Most American railways of any
Importance are solidly built. and well
equipped. The so-called standard lines
have spent money lavishly in providing
all the safety devices known to the pro-
fession. Very few accidents have their
prime cause in insufficient or defective
material or equipment, while the vast ma
jority Of them result, from errors in oper-
ating,, says f. w. Haskell in the Engi-
neering Magazine for December. The
handling. of trains is governed by the
standard rules These rules are the results
of fifty years of experience; and. in thei,
present form, are well-nigh perfect. Ir
fact. it is almost inconceivable that ar
accident could occur where the standard
rules have been faithfully observed.
Given then, a solid. roadbed, heavy rails
strong equipment, proper signals and al
most perfect operating rules, why do we
have the almost daily murder Of passen.
gers from preyentable accidents?
Because the admirable rules for thu
government OF ienlplOyes are habituallJ
disregarded.

Passing of the IIumberiack.

The lumberiacki is passing. So the
news columns assert. The state is get
ting on in years. With the lumberiack
goes our youth in the woods, as with the
unbroken, prairie goes our youth on the
plains. The common laborer is taking
the place! of the woodsman, just as the
prosaic farmer has taken the place Of
the cowboy. I.
The lumberjack was fascinating
type Of man. He came very near to
being the natural man. His passions
were elemental. He worked hard, fought
hard, drank i hard and enjoyed every
minute of life. He was a skilled work
man, with none of the tameness Of a
settled trade. He was wild, rough and
free. He was the frontiersman in the
woods. He enjoyed his open-air life,
and crude but hearty fare. He would
rather ride a log than get an advance
in pay. Nothing in the world seemed
worth while to him except life in the
woods and on the drive.
And now the veterans that are left
are leaving as for the Pacific coast and

All. Of this reminds US that the whole

Tho good, old frontier types are going

nothing but dispute between miners
and mine owners. There is nothing
western about it.
The time is near at hand when there
will be nothing arising out of contact

Americans from Europeans. Wherefore
the American Of the future will not be
like the American Of the past. The

MAY AFFILIATE
WITH PLUMBERS
sTEAMFITTERs' UNION TO DE-
eide FINALLY ON DEC. Is.
American Federation Of Labor Has De-
cided that Plumbers Should Have
Jurisdiction over Steamftters, and
the Local Organization Will Submit
the Question to Popular Vote.

Negotiations are pending which may
result in the local Steamttters union
withdrawing from the international
body and affliating with the United
Association of Plumbers. For long
time members of both organizations
have been endeavoring to bring about
a better understanding between the
plumbers and steamftters, with the re-
suit that some weeks ago committees
unions to meet in conference and, II
possible agree upon some course OF
action which would bring about the
desired results. However, after a num-
Der Of meetings, the idea Of arriving
at any solution Of the problems which
would be satisfactory to all concerned
was abandoned.
filters union the question Of affilia:
tion with the United Association of
Plumbers was brought up for discus
sion, and it was decided to take fina]
action at the meeting to be held Dec
Is. The secretary has been instructed
to notify all members who are in the
city to be present at that time, while
notices and ballots will be forwarded
to out-of-town members in order that
they may have voice in the settlement
OF the question. -
There is evidently great need of some
sort Of an understanding between the
pipe-trade unions in this city. Tbs
American Federation of Labor decided
that the plumbers should have jurisdic
tion over the steamftters, and at thu
recent convention in San Francisco this
position was reaffrmed, and this action
will undoubtedly have great weigh
with the majority of the steamftter
in deciding the way they vote. Il.
Should the plans for affliation will
the plumbers carry, the different craft
would still maintain their RESPECTIVE
locals, with their officers and bushes
agents, but pipe-trades council woul,
be- organized at once. The annual cleo
ton Of officers of the Steamftters
union is to be held on Dec. Is, but Of
account Of the amalgamation questio
being set for the same evening, tn
election may be postponed.

A Wonderful Harvest.

With the old economic rule in mind,
that all prosperity comes primarily from
the soil, and that upon the success or
agriculture depends very largely success
in every business line, one may read
with great satisfaction the report OF
Secretary Wilson Of the department OF
agriculture, Issued yesterday. MI. VIII
son presents summary not only grat1fy-
ing in general, but highly favorable for
the twelvemonth period more particular.
ffify covered, con tafnfngs statements that
will be- surprising no doubt to many
who have retained the impression that
this was not a good year-an impression
gained during the time Of unfavorable
report from the wheat fields. ~
The secretary finds that our country
turned QUIZ this year in all agricultural
produce Of value of $4,000 100000
This is almost 10 per cent more than
produced in 1908. x
It might astonish an ordinary reader
not familiar with the general subject
to look into this report and see what
is done every year in the production
of new wealth. The annual production
of eggs and poultry and other things
not usually thought of runs into great
figures. Indeed, the farmers hens lay
eggs enough in a single month, during
the busy season, to pay the interest OF
the public debt for year. s; :, &
King of all, corn is the greatest wealth
producer. From the proceeds of thi:
crop alone the farmers could more thar
pay off the entire national debt. Cot
ton comes next, valued, with by products
and all, at about 100000. For: thirt
place the hay crop and the wheat croI
are about even. Potatoes, barley, oat:
anil other produce run into big figures
Summing it all up, there lis about
100000, in value produced by ,tht
American farmer every year, and TIT
rate of production continues ADVANCING
from year to year. Agriculture is pros
porous in high degree, without taking
into consideration the enhancement il
the value Of farm lands of the past sew
eral years. + z-.E
Nothing very serious in the way O.
financial reverses can come upon ou
country while we 90 along at such ,
rate. Financial squalls may come, par
Iticular industries may be affected, an,
the alternate periods of extreme activ
Iity and recession appear, but 50 long a
the farmer remains a prosperous an
ccntented member of society the who'll
country is certain to forge ahead.

bers Of congress who become interested
in federal contracts. One Minnesota
statute applies it specially to county
commissioners, another to town Off
GERS, and another prohibits public
school teachers from having any inter
est in the sale of books. The mere fact
that park commissioners serve without
salary does not exempt them either in
law or morals from the operation of
this general rule. They are public Of
