Training of Railroad Presidents.
James J. Hilrs reason for predicting
that fewer railroad presidents would
come from the bottom ranks in the fu-
ture than had done so in the past was
this: In years gone by, when the unions
were not so strong as now, the railroad
employe felt loyalty 10 the line which
has almost disappeared. At the present
time. his loyalty 10 the line IS divided,

Pumping Station.
NAMES ARE NOT KNOWN.

While crossing the ford near the
pumping station onday evening, two
couples had a narrow escape from
drowning The names of the people
could not be learned. They were driv-

er the heavy downpour of rain, that
they attempted to cross the ford, which
was already high. In the middle of
the stream the buggy was caught in
the rush of water and pulled loose
from the, horse and floated down
stream for several feet where it caught
on some rocks and was held for several
minutes. During this time the men
made their escape from the rig and lat
er rescued the women. whose screams
were heard great distance After
the harness was mended. and the bug
gy rescued, the party left the scene be-
fore any one had secured their names.

Dr.. Waqgoner Outlines CHANG

THE COST OF INSPECTION.
REQUIRES AN ANNUAL OUTLAY
OF $1,000 TO PROVIDE 1T FOR
RICHMOND MAY COME IN
THREE WEEKS

DR.. Waggoner, government meat in
spector at the abattoir has completed
his inspection OF the Anton Stole and
Holzapfel Strengthening houses. and
has filed Q list of needed improve
ments, which viii have to be made on
the houses before the government
men are sent here. with both Mr.
Stole and Holzapfel Copies of these
recommendations have also been for
warded TO the department of animal
industry at Washington, d. c. As
soon as the slaughterhouse owners
comply with the regulations and
changes set down by DR. Waggoner,
the department will Immediately for
ward men to this city to take up the
work. DR.. Waggoner states that
there probably will be one veterinary
inspector and two meat inspectors,
men who are now studying to be vet
erinaries, but are experienced butch
ers. 1t may be that a fourth man will
be added who viii have charge of tag
ging all carcasses, but it is not known
whether the local plants will be able
to secure an extra man.
The government has already in
mind three men to be sent here. and
t1eir coming depends on how quickly
the slaughter house owners comply
with the regulations. If they do this
in two weeks the men will come in
about two weeks. 1t is understood
that the changes at the two plants
and especially the Stole establish
ment, will not have to be much great
Ell than those already made.
Cost of Inspection.
But few people in Richmond realize
just what the inspection for Richmond
will cost the government. When the
figures are learned they will be
surprise and it can be easily seen that
the government department of animal
industry stretched point to give this
city inspection. The salaries of the
men assigned here will be $4,000 per
year Costs for labels and AL work
ing materials, will have to be added
to this, making the cost to the gov
ernment range around the $1,000 fig
ure each year
The butchers say they will immed-
lately place their houses in the best
Of shape as they realize that with the
81 eat cost to the government, they
cannot very we'll do otherwise, and
are glad that they have secured gov
eminent inspection, Notwithstanding
that they do not do an interstate bust
ness.
There has been some speculation
recently as to whether outside non
government inspected meat can be
brought into Richmond. The butch
ers of Fountain City and other small
towns who have heretofore done a
good business in this city, state that
they cannot be kept out of Richmond
