The Railroad Companies Chance.

The railroad companies entering WASH
ingtou have an excellent chance here to
demonstrate that they are ahead instead Of
behind the times in the matter of equip
ment The usual record in such cases Is
for the community to apply pressure,
through the legislature or the court, to
compel the transportation companies to
meet the requirements of public safety and
convenience. Grade crossings have been
abolished almost without exception as a
result Of state and municipal mandate
Terminal improvements have largely.
though not exclusively. been the fruit Of
agitations by the people. In some cases
the railroads have assumed the Initiative
and have anticipated either the wishes Of
the people or the enactment OF those
wishes into statutory and mandatory form.
Why should not the Washington rail-
roads recognize the force of the demand
for smokeless terminal and proceed with
out delay and without congressional COM
pulsion to apply the smoke law to them
selves and make provision for strict
obedience of that statute when the union
station is finished? Such a step out of the
traditional line of railroad procedure would
go far toward relieving the corporations of
the odium of reproach which now rests
upon them II the mind of the average citi-
zen. 1t Tsald be o measure of self-inter-
