Mistakes are as much to be
expected in the makeup Of a
newspaper which has a rush of
work and troubles and pleasures,
as they may be in the combina-
tion of people forming the dis
trict of the papers support. To
notice them seriously describes
the same sort of childish petu-
lence sometimes witnessed among
the little tots at play, and which
suggests to the elderly observers
the query: What, unless
breeding, causes the wonderful
difference in children?"

The old year is closing and a
new one will soon be here. Check
over the old and plan for the
new. Most everyone can see
where he could have done other
wise" and profted. The history
of the past is the best lesson
learned in any school, applied to
men or nations. Don't brood
but act. 1t isn't the man and
the day, so much as it is the man
and the hour; and many cases
are minimized to decision on the
minute. Plan as you go and
work as you plan-and when you
are tired Of both planning and
working, rest. Next year prom
ises to be one of many opportun-

The appointment of Judge
Helm, of Denver by Gov. Buch-
tel and the turning down of the
Western Slopes leading candi-
date for the position, Judge A.
r. King is one of the many things
which call for censure of the
ministerial governors acts. The
fact that Judge King was an
official high up in church circles
and an intimate personal friend
of Governor Buchtel, was not in
itself a reason why his appoint
ment could have been counted
upon; but, aside from that van

One of the Montrose papers
gives good advice when it urges
that town to use every effort to
secure any enterprises which
will give employent to people.
The same advice is good at Delta
or any other ambitious, growing
city. Those of the people who
need employment should be pro-
yided with work of some sort if
possible. Such things go to make
a town solid and permanent, and
its people contented, prosperous
and happy. Anything is in or
der, from a sugar factory to a
fruit box shop. Keep the work
at home and keep the profits at
home. If everything sold or
used in a community could be
made at home, that community
would be perfectly independent
and would have very few wants.

STOCK INCREASE
STOCKHOLDERS OF THE PENN.
sYLVANIA RAILROAD VOTE BIG
INCREASE OF STOCK.

Special to the Herald.
Philadelphia, Pa, March 12.-The
stockholders of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company. at their annual
meeting held in Horticultural Hall to-
day, took favorable action on the re-
quest of the directors for authorization
to issue 100000. 900 in new stock and
additional bonds to the amount of
800, 100000. This proposed increase
in the Pennsylvania securities has
attracted much attention in financial
circles, chiefly for the reason that it
is the largest issue in the history Of
the company. As a matter OF fact. the
amount has never been exceeded Ly
any railroad in America.
How much of these securities will
be issued in the near future has not
been announced. It is thought that
before the end Of the year enough Of
the new securities will be offered to
supply funds to pay off S5O.OOO.OOO of

to pay for new equipment and other
facilities the need of which had not
been foreseen last June when Presi-
dent Cassatt issued his statement of
what he expected the financial re.
quirements of the road would be for
the next two years.
The Pennsylvania recently has had
to order 1900 more steel freight
cars and other equipment in proper
ton. These extra freight cars alone
will cost something like $1S.O0O.000.
and IL as much more money is needed
for other general purposes, the total
requirements of the road for new cap
ital this year will hardly fall short
of s11O,OOO.OOO. and may even exceed
that amount
In addition to discussing the new
stock increase the stockholders listen
e dto annual reports. which had pre-
viously been made public. The an
nual election will not take place till
two weeks hence.

den, Johann Hoch and the murderers

1t is believed that the entire cost
of the trial for both sides will total
nearly $1,25O.OOO.
A half million dollars is placed rs
the minimum figure for the cost Of
counsel to the defense. Added TO this
the cost of expert testimony, the hotel
accommodations for witnesses and a
hundred and one incidentals that have
to be paid for at extravagant rates,
the result will be that the Thaw for
tune must be depleted TO the extent
of at least 100000 before the case
is ended Future developments may
run the amount up to a much higher
figure.
The cost to the State also will be
very heavy. The salaries of the pre-
siding judge and of the district attor-
ney, exclusive of the latter's assist
ants, amount to $4,000 since the COM
mencement of the trial
When the trial is concluded there
will be bill of several thousand dol
lars for stenographers' services.
The cost OF talesmen at SO per day
will exceed s25OO.
The cost of hotel accommodations
will amount to not less than $4,000.
Cost of bailiff and guards, $4,000.

THE THAW TRIAL
SMASHES RECORD
HAS BEEN GIVEN MORE PUBLIC.
-ITY AND THE COST is AHEAD
OF ALL RECORDS.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
New York, March 12.-The trial of
Harry X. Thaw for his life for the
murder of Stanford White has realiz-
ed the predictions made at its begin
ming that 1t would become the most
famous in the history of criminal
trials in America. The long trial has
been a record breaking one in many
respects.
One of the most interesting side
lights on the famous case is afforded
by comparison of the amount of pub
hcity il has received with the amount
of newspaper space given to other
history making events of recent times.
Since the date of the beginning of
the trial, January 20, the leading
newspapers. of New York City have
devoted more than 5000 columns TO
Use. The estimated number of
ranges between 600 aaa md
5,UU0s00O. Placed end TO end
umns would stretch over one and
three-fourths statute miles. The col
umns of space devoted to accounts of
the trial by the daily press of the en-
tire country, il the columns were plac-
ed end to end, would form band of
paper long enough to stretch from
New York City beyond Philadelphia
One hundred and forty-two pictures
of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw appeared in
the daily newspapers of New York in
a single week. The number printed
in New York during the entire period
of the trial runs into the thousands.
while for. the country at large the to-
tai can be figured only by tens of
thousands.
The Thaw trial at its most sensa-
tional stage attracted as much atten-
ton from the newspapers of Europe
as did the war between the United
States and Spain.
The space devoted to the case by
the American press greatly exceeds
in amount the space given TO the as
sassination of President Mckinley
and the subsequent trial and electro
cution of the assassin.
More space has been given to ac-
counts of the Thaw case than the
total amount devoted to accounts of
the ten most famous murder trials
that have taken place in America in
recent years. These include the two
trials of Roland Molineux, the three
trials of Nan" Patterson, and the
trials Of Albert T. Patrick. Lizzie Bor.
