RAILWAYS
Association VIII Put An End
to Other Lines Using Their
Freight Car Equipment
CHARGES WILL Be MADE
Roads Using Equipment OIL Others viii Pay
TWENTY-FIVE Cents Yer Day for Each
Car--WiII HaS,ON Their RstUrn

Chicago, oct. "a Railroads that
have been depending on the other
lines to furnish their freight car
equipment will probably strike a
snag as Il result of the meeting OF
the American Railroad association
which opened here today with near
ly every railway in the country repre-
sented.
For many years numerous and less
important railways have been in the
habit Of getting possession Of freight
cars belonging to other lines and
using them as long as they pleased
regardless of the demands Of their
owners. These roads are termed
"leeches" in the railroad yernacular,
and a determined effort is to be made
at the present session to pry them
loose from their graft.
As the rules regulating the matter
now stand, each road using the
freight cars of another line is charg-
ed twenty-five cents a day during
the first thirty days H. has been
shown that the average earning ca
pacity Of freight car in regular use
Is more than 81 day, hence the
small charge now made in not only
Improbable for the roads owning
the cars, but is sufficient TO hasten
the return of cars by the smaller
roads which find it cheaper to use
the rolling stock of other lines rather
than purchase equipment of their
own.
Just what action will be taken to
check the '1eeches" Is not yet decid-
ed, but the representatives of enough
roads have slgnifted themselves as
guarantee their adoption.

Perspective is a difficulty which for
some time will have to be avoided in
stead of being explained. No partial ex-
PLANTATION would be of use, and the cop
ing with its broader understanding
would be a restraint which would spoil
much of the free child-like expression Of
the work. For this reason the forms so
far chosen have been those least affected
by perspective, or that quality has been
bravely disregarded. Such rounds as
trees, apples, houses viewed at right
angles, do not suffer from that disregard,
but when the interior of a room is to be
drawn it is more difficult to show the diff
ferent planes and not call perspective to
aid. At the ordinary point of view the
tops of tables, chairs, ETC., as well as
their side planes are seen. The teacher
who has the ingenuity to steer clear Of
these problems and their explanation is
saving much for himself and the child

tive complexity of the forms, which can
be more readily grouped after the child
has familiarized itself with the method
OF expression. The figure of the wind
mill is no more difficult to draw than
the figure of man, but its use is easier
from it's following other forms under the
same conditions. A good fund of mate
rial is now at the child's command for
the settings and background of it's HUI

itself with the man and not have the
added concern Of the scene in which the
man is placed. It will continue to add to
its store Of scenic material for story-tell-

to its medium and Its courage has grown

cost more, owing to the extra labor in

THE GOOD ROADS BILL.
Has the Sanction of the President
and Sentiment Is Growing
in Its>Favor.

Three years ago the president Of the
United States gave his Endorsement
to national aid in highway improve
ment, and declared in a public speech
that It was help the people have a
right to demand of the general gov
eminent. That was in 1903. Since then
the patriotism, intelligence, progress
i've spirit and business sense of the
country has Quickened in response,
and from one end of the land to the
other the good roads campflres have
been lighted on hillside and in valley.
The actual loss and Inconvenience to
the country through the lack of decent
means OF communication between
town and country, town and town in
the interior, between the homes of the
people and the markets., between the
homes and church houses and school,
houses. is so immense that it cannot
longer be borne, and the people are
becoming aroused as they have not
been on any subject since the close
Of the civil war. Every thinking per
son realizes that governmental aid and
supervision in road construction Is an
absolute national necessity. Every
thinking person knows that state sys-
TENS will continue to fall short OF
adequate remedy for the great trouble
OF bad roads, as state systems have
failed for Is years past except in two
or three of the weather. states. Some
good road work has been done lin a
few states, notably in New York, a
state of great cities, where the city
property is taxed with other property,
and money is abun5an for the pur-
pose. But there are few states able to
do what New York can do for high
ways, and nearly all of the As states
OF the union realize taeir helplessness
in this respect. It does seem as if
there should be no hesitation about
the enactment Of the Brownlow-Lati-
ner good roads bill. It provides for
only reasonable assistance in getting
the work under way, and certainly if
the government can spend money for
road building in Porto Rico and the
Philippines, as it has been literally
doing, the representatives of the peo-
pie ought not to deny relief to the
states at home. The plan proposed is
neither extravagant nor burdensome
It is a plain. practical business propo-
sition which appeals strongly for hear
Ing in the F'ifty-ninth congress-, and
the demand for this legislation is
growing stronger all the time. It has,
too, the sanction of eminent officials Of
the government, and if the people con-
tinue their demand on congress the
Observation-Disclosures bill will soon be-
come a law.
Hon. w. P. Brownlow will send
copies of the bill and other official lit
erature to any person addressing a re-
quest to him at Washington.
