WHY NOT REGISTER?
This Is a Good Time to Avoid the
Rush.

Registration at the office of the com
missioner of elections still continues at
snairs pace. 1t will be merely a case of
history repeating itself, a wild endeavor
to register at the closing hour with
clerks dancing a hornpipe in order to
meet the turbulent rush of the voters at
the eleventh hour. Since the books open
Monday, just 352 persons have registered.
This is at the rate of about 50 people for
each of the ten DAYS which have elapsed
since that time The total registration is
now 4,432 of which number 3,948 are cred
tied to the male voters and 484 to the fe-
In the city's limits there are upwards of
5000 voters-men and women-eligible to
cast ballots at this springs municipal
election, provided, of course, that they
register. In the spring of 1903 the total
registration amounted TO lb,lS4- rms IVES
rather an interesting municipal campaign
year, with the cross fight of Hughes and
Bergundthal. In 1901, during the mayor
1861.
Last spring when city politics was not
especially interesting, except in the coun-
Gilman fight in the Second and Third
wards, only 9,287 were registered in time
to vote; the registration being divided as
follows. Males. 6, 597; females, $780,
The books in the city close on the 24th
of March, leaving Is registration days still
available. In order that all might register
in that time 500 people would have to
make that their mission for each day
A great many people are awaiting for
the time when the books are brought into
the wards. This, however, may not be
done this year and Commissioner of E1ec-
tons Williams is seriously thinking of
dispensing with it because of the extra
expense connected with it. The commits
sioner of elections office is allowed $500
each year for additional clerical hire,
made necessary by reason of elections.
Ordinarily the books are out % days.
This means an expense of $8S, as two
clerks are engaged ind paid at the rate OF
81 per day each.
The length of time allotted go each ward
varies with the size. In the Sixth, Third
and Fourth ward two days are allotted;
in the Fifth and Second three days, while
they remain usually ten days in the First
ward the north side. The appropria-
ton of 800 is running low and the COM
missioner of elections feels some hesitan-
cy in mourning the expense referred to on
this account

RAILROAD NEWS.
Story of the Rise of President
w. III. Newman.
Was Once Brakeman on Texas
e. Pacific Railroad.
SALARY SI2O,OOOAY YEAR
Gained His High Position by
Thorough Work.
Gossip and Matters of Interest
in Railway Circles.

In the life-story of W. H. Newman
there is that which should be a pow
erful Inspiration to every young man
in this great country, says Rev.
Thomas B. Gregory.
Thirty-five years ago young New
man was a brakeman on a southern
railroad at a wage of 81 day; today
he is president of the great Wander
bilt system, with a. salary of $4,000
a year, a palatial residence in New
ously appointed that king might
envy it
Like a tale from the Arabian Nights
reads the story of this mans success:
Watch him mounting the steps lead
ing up to his splendid triumph

way
Station agent
Local freight agent
General freight agent
Traffic manager of the Missouri
Third vice president of the Chicago
& Northwestern railway
Second vice president
President of the Lake Shore &
Michigan Southern
trail
President Of the whole Vanderbilt
system, with its 100, 200 employees and
its 10000 miles of trackage. He gets
a salary of 100000 yearly.
It is by all odds the most brilliant
career in the entire annals of Amer
lean railroading. 1t is a piece of sue
cess to be proud of, and if Mr.. New
man is today a thoroughly happy man.
no one should wonder at the fact or

begrudge him an iota of his splendid

begrudge him an iota of his splendid
satisfaction.
But let US see about the magnificent
prize that has come to this man.
But no; that is not the word in
tended to use. A prize" is something
that one draws in a lottery, something
that falls to one by chance But Mr..
Newman's victory did not come to him
by chance. He worked for it.
From the beginning to the end of
this marvellous story not an element
of chance is to be seem With the man
who has won this grand success it
was from the start, a simple prob
lem in mathematics much indus
try, duty devotion painstaking care
and uncomfortable viii power, for so
much success
The young brakeman handled the
brakes cOnscientiOusly. He sWOre to
himself that he would, if possible, do
the best braking of any man on the
rOad-just as EpaminOndas, when
elected street commissioner of Thebes.
SWOre that he would attend to his job
better than any other man had ever
attended to it.
And when the brakeman became
the station agent, and, later on, the
traffic manager, and the third vice
president, and the second vice preSi-
dent, it was the same spirit that domi-
mated him-the spirit of a conscien-
tiOus, cOnSecrated energy, of manly
devotion to duty, of tirelesss indefatig-
able perseverance and hOpetulneSS IN
the work that was given him to do
You may mark it down as being
absolutely certain that this man has
always been temperate, honest, strict
" attentive to the duty that he owed
his employers, a true gentleman, in
variably civil and courteous to all,
and, above everything else, g lover of
his work, and an unfaltering believer
in the proposition that what he ought
to do, and earnestly desired to do, he
would be enabled to do.
The young brakeman didn't whine,
he worked. He didn't get the blues
and say to himself, Whats the use %
He had faith in himself, and looked
on the bright side as he struggled on
in his battle with the world.
Now, it is perfectly true that there
are not railroad presidencies enough
to give one to every young man in the
land; but this much may be stated
dogmatically-that every young man
who succeeds in any direction must
do so by catching the spirit and pur-
pose of this successful railroad man.
Do well today the task that today
brings; work conscientiously, man
fully, lovingly at that task, and to-
morrow Will bring a larger task with
larger honors and emoluments.
Above all else, be cheerful, be hope
full. believe in your star. keep your
face toward that star, and all will be
well.

A RAILWAY CLEARING HOUSE.
Railway Presidents Have ]. w. Nndg-
ley at Work Perfecting a Plan.


Chicago. Feb. 24.-Eastern and
western railroad presidents are trying
to perfect a plan for the establishment
of q national railroad clearing house,
by which it is expected that the rail-
roads of the country will be saved at
least $4,000, 600 annually, and pos
sibly double that amount The presi-
dents who have interested themselves
in the matter and who have employed
J. w. A1idgley to bring the matter to
a successful issue are: Stuyvesant
Fish of the Illinois Central, w. H
Newman of the New York Central
lines. F. D. Underwood of the Erie, z.
B. Thomas of the Lehigh Valley, E. P.
Ripley of the Santa F'e and Samuel
Spencer of the Southern. J. P. Nor
gan & Co. have also given the matter
their approval and promised their sup
port.
The increase in damage claims is
one of the most menacing features Of
the freight traffic. The claim agent
of one road recently stated that claims
for loss and damages had increased
over 400 per cent within a, few years
1t is now proposed to have all claims
adjusted by a clearing house and
passed upon by the officials of that
body for the railroads. The new bu-
reau, if it is established. will have to
do with all accounting between rail-
roads with respect to interchange of
cars and everything for which one
road can owe another All interchange
of business will be handled through
the bureau.

wALBER's PASS IDEAS.
B. & o. Official Has Novel PIacard
Over His Desk.

Mr.. John G. Walber. assistant to
the vice president and general man
-ager of the Baltimore & Ohio South
western, has his own ideas about
passes on a railroad. In order to
prove his point he has diligently
searched the scriptures and has
brought forth fragments of verses to
demonstrate that it is wrong to travel
on a railroad pass. He has these
scriptural rules in printed form above
his desk, where all may see them.
They are as follows:

NORTH SEA VERDICT.
1t is Said to Be in Favor of a
Compromise.

Paris, Feb. 24-The international
commission appointed to inquire into
the North sea incident practically con-
cluded its work by finally agreeing to
the report which will be publicly an
nounced at the closing session to be
held at 3 o'clock Saturday. Concerning
the general nature of the report the
following statement was made in a
most authoritative quarter to the As
ISOLATED Press:
when the text of the decision be-
comes known it will be more acceptable
to the press and public than they have
been led to believe. The semi official
summaries appearing while more or
less accurate, tend too strongly to show
Russian success but as matter of fact
the admirals have sought a. middle
ground and the decision is not a pro-
nounced victory for either side It is
of such character as to preserve Rus
sia's self-respect and at the same time
give the British public much ground
for satisfaction. If anything the decis-
ion is rather more favorable to Great
Britain than to Russia
