Our stupendous Railroad Development.

During the lifetime of many who are
still active factors in business affairs, or
seventy-six years ago, we had % miles OF
railroads, today 223, 900 miles, or includ-
ing double track and sidings, $4,000
miles. The freight in mile tons has
grown from $4,000, 900, 900 in 1882 and 49,
600 0O0. 900 in 1890, 10 1S7, 000, 000, 900 in
1905, the total for the latter year being
more than twice as great as for 1890 The
gain of 1000, 100000 tons between 1900
and 1905 was very much larger than the
total of 1882, and nearly two-thirds as
great as the total of 1890. Owing to the
Improvement in roadbed and to the larger
and much more powerful locomotives and
cars, freight traffic has increased by a
much greater percentage than the in
crease in the number of cars and loco
motives, and likewise than the increase in
mileage. On most of our roads we have
very nearly reached the limit of heavier
locomotives and larger cars, for as these
are increased in weight heavier rails and
heavier bridges are made necessary. II
is really case of reconstruction and re-
building year after year. Yet no
road in a prosperous section seems
to catch up with its business
The depot and the rolling stock and the
roadbed built for the present are behind
the times before they are completed
Great as has been the growth of traffic
during the last ten years, it must of ne
cessity be far exceeded by that of the
next ten, since population is increasing
and the volume of trade grows more rap
idly than population. To extend our rail
road facilities by the building Of new mile
age, by improvement of tracks and ter.
minal facilities, and by the increase Of
rolling stock adequate to meet the actual
needs OF the country during the next ter
years, would require as a minimum ar
expenditure in that time Of from $4,000.
