Maxine a city's Streets Safe.

WAKING CItyS streets safe.
The railroads of the country are
spending one hundred million dollars
to make the streets OF Chicago safe,
says Rutledge Rutherford in Technic-
al World Magazine for January. On
an average, five hundred people a year
are run over by nassing trains. or are
injured in collision with steam
locomotives while using Chica-
Rc's streets Ten years ago Chicago
decided that the elevation of all
steam railway tracks was the only
means of protecting her citizens from
the deadly grade-crossings And the
railroads are footing the bill. Last
year over $4,000 men were employed
in the work of elevating the tracks
and it cost the railroads about S.
800. 900.
Chicago is not the only city which
is having her .steam railway tracks
elevated. But Chicago is the only
city which is making the railroads
pay for the Job. Chicago has already
accomplished the elevation Of 500
miles of steam railway tracks within
her borders and has made the rail-
roads pay every cent OF the $50,000,-
900 which it has epst. =.
The work is Oily half completed;
but the railroads which at first op-
posed track elevation are now con-
ceived of its advantages, and they are
beginning to regs rd it as well worth
the millions of dollars it is costing.
Some roads are far-sighted enough to
go greatly beyond the city's require
ments, and are building most efficient
rOadbeds to add to their terminal and
switching facilities.

The Proposed
Inside Route.

The intercoastal canal. now being
constructed through the bayous along
the Texas coast, and which will ulti-
mately stretch along the full length
OF the coast, is attracting considerable
attention, especially in view of its
Importance in connection with the
proposed inland waterway from NeY
England to the Gulf of Mexico The
Wall Street Journal, commenting up
on the matter says:
The intercoastal canal is only q
part OF the great inland waterway sys-
tenn that is to start at Boston, pass
through Fall river, Long Island sound,
the East river, Morris canal to Della
ware bay, thence by canal to the
waters of Chesapeake bay. through
waterways of the Great Dismal
swamp, cutting off the dangerous Cape
Hatteras, going into open sea only OF
Savannah. then through Florida in
land waters. and reaching the gulf by
a canal that is to cross the lowlan1
areas of Florida Its stragetical i'm
portance as a military defense should
not be overlooked. This gigantic
scheme was long considered the
dream of a visionary; but recent de-
velOpments in the Boston, rockton-
I. Fall river canal project, the Delaware
and ChesaDeake canal, and now this
intercoaStal canal in Texas plainly
show that the plan will be realized
sooner than its advocates had antici-
pated.
Government assistance is. Of course.
necessary to the completion of a
work of such proportions but, in view
of the fact that many of the natural
waterways of the Atlantic coast are
already connected by canals, the re-
suit of private enterprise, the expense

as outlined, would be comparatively
light Private ownership of a portion
of the canal system, however, would
undoubtedly result in serious conten-
tons and for that reason, if for no
other, the government should be in
absolute control.
A free inland waterway along the
Atlantic and gulf coasts, with only
nominal charges for lockage, where
locks may be necessary, would be of
immense benefit and will, in all prob
ability, be constructed eventually.
