Was there ever time when rail-
road and steamship disasters were of
daily occurrence to the extent that
they are this winter? If railroads
were encouraged to make record
for safety rather than speed, things
would be different. The national
vice of sacrificing everything on the
altar of hurry is working out its le-
ultimate conclusion.

The Senate judiciary committee
last week put to sleep the house bill
to regulate private banks, on the
ground that it is in fact a bill to
abolish them. The Committee re-
ports that under the police powers
of the state it is not compe-
tent for the state to prohibit the
citizens from carrying on any trade,
occupation or business that is not
offensive to the community or injur-
Gus to society. The business of
banking is recognized as a legitimate
business, and the state may regulate
but not prohibit it.

TWO NATIONAL WONDERS.
President Roosevelt and Jim Till
Compared.

A famous Englishman spent three
days in the White House with the
president and wound up by saving
that he could go home and say that
he had seen America two great nat
ural wonders = Niagara Falls and
Roosevelt.
The American Magazine for March
dominates third. In the course Of
a very spirited and Illuminating ac-
count of the president, the following
paragraphs about jim" Hill and
his meeting with President Roose-
welt appear:
The man | am attempting to de
scribe is not restless. That is not the
word as we are accustomed to use
/ it. He suffers Cor benefts) from a
total absence of the desire or capac-
ity for rest. He is energy persona
fed. He enjoys no heartier enemy
in the world than Mr. Hill, the pres
ident of the Great Northern railway,
but psychologist would classify
them as cousins. They have the
same desire for speech and the same
difficulty about uttering it, the same
physical awkwardness and energy,
courage, boldness and self concen-
tration. The president of the United
States makes old men of his cabinet
ministers before their time. The
trail Of the president of the Great
Northern is marked by wrecks of old
broken-down enriched associates in
business. Today, and he is nearly
seventy years of age, the younger
men on his railways fear his Brob-
dingnagian inspection tpips' when
they are hauled from their births at
sunrise to eat breakfast that would
stagger Gargantua and then to
tramp for hours over broken fields
and through swamps, inspecting COL
lieries, admiring prize bulls, visiting
round houses or working hand-cars,
until the sunset hour sends them
back to the car, where, somnolent,
they try to listen while the old man.
reads aloud books on the develop
ment of trade in China or challenges
them to discussion on the exis-
istence of Marian life.
Perhaps you would like to know
what these two eminent and distant
personages think of each other. At
Mr.. Roosevelt's request Mr.. Hill
was taken by a friend of both gen
tlemen to Washington to discuss the
Northern Securities case. Each pre-
sented his view to the other at
about the same time, / suppose. At
the conclusion of the interview or
fracas the railway president pulled
his hat down over his ears and thun-
dered over to his hotel. The friend
remained to collect souvenirs of the
disaster. When he got back to the
hotel he asked Mr.. Hill: What do
you think of the PRESIDENT 4 think
he is crazy, said Mr.. Hill. We'll,
said the friend u that's funny, for
that is exactly what the president

Letter to Mr.. A. Y. Fedderly, Red
lUOod Falls. MINI
DEAR SIR: The way to reckon the
cost of paint is to put both costs to-
gether: the cost of the paint and the
cost of putting it on.
1t would save this country hundreds
of millions of dollars a year; it would
save you alone Gf you happen to be
victim) several dollars year.
See how it works. 1t costs as much
to put on one paint as another, don t
it? Yes, if you use the same number
of gallons.
Well don't |?
No you'll use twice as many gal
Ions of adulterated paint as of De
voc; and you've got to pay twice as
much for putting it on.
Mr.. N. Avery, Delhi, N. Y, has
two houses alike and in same condi-
ton. Painted one house with Devoe:
6 gallons. Painted the other house
with paint that was half adultera-
ton: IL gallons. Same painter, Geo.
Gilbert, did both jobs. One cost $27:
the other $54.
Better go by the name.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvOE eco.

without having to do so through a
commission man. The dairymen
have for some time felt the need of
an organization Of this kind, and
while it will be in the nature of an
experiment, it is thought that the
plan is practical one. The idea is
to have the managers of the differ

butter direct to st. Paul, where it
will be stored and sold by grades.
The buyers can then buy direct from
the manufacturers, instead of going
to the creameries.

STEEL CROSS-TIES FOR RAIL
ROADS,

The growing scarcity of good timber
from which satisfactory cross-ties can
be made is causing railroad officials
to cast about for suitable substitute.
The Pennsylvania railroad, on the
Pittsburg division, and just east of
Lockport, is installing three thousand
ties of steel casing filled with a mix
ture of asphalt and rock. This new tie
has a steel facing which extends only
around three sides, the asphalt being
exposed on the under side which rests
on the stone ballast. The size and
shape are the same as those of the
wooden tie, though the weight is about
seven hundred pounds, or three times
the weight of the ordinary wooden tie.
1t is contended that this great weight,
with the asphalt surface resting on
the ballast will reduce creeping" to
a minimum.
If the experiment with this new
cross-tie demonstrates it's practical
utility, it is the intention of the officials
of the Pennsylvania system to replace
the wooden ties with it on all their
lines as it becomes necessary to put in
new ties.
