Want Dangerous Crossing Fixed.

A petition has been put in circulation
at White River Junction asking the YER
mont railroad commissioners to act in the
matter of the famous eight-track crossing
at the station. 1t has been signed by
large number of citizens.
As White River is the junction of five
railroads, including the northern and the
Passumpsic divisions of the Boston q
Maine, the main line and New London
division of the Central Vermont, and the
Woodstock and is the direct line from
New York to the White mountains and
from Boston to Montreal, it is necessary
for hundreds of people to cross these
tracks every day, and with the arrival
and departure of fifty passenger trains
daily and the constant shifting Of
freights the traveller must necessarily be
on the alert. There is similar difficulty
too, in transferring baggage from the
street, as few people care to risk driving
across these tracks. Consequently, the
baggage must be taken over on a truck.
Taking the place all in all, it is declared
to be the most dangerous crossing in the
state and the worst approach TO a rail-
road station that could be imagined.
A new modern station is much needed
at White River Junction in the view of
residents and would be great improve
ment. The present waiting room is
small, considering the large number of
people who pass in and out. 1t is esti-
mated that the union ticket office handles
nearly $4,000, q month.

There Is one summer city in the
White Mountains whose population
expands to nearly 10000 during the
height of the vacation season; and
there are days when as many as 500
tourists ascend to the summit of
stately Mt. Washington, $500 feet
above the sea, on the famous Cog
railway, to be torn by that awful
mental conflict that always must be
fought by the man or woman who
has to decide whether it shall be din
ner indoors or scenery outdoors. And

does give one
Once, during an ocean voyage,
elected to forego my dinner in order
to enjoy an unusually fine sunset. AS
the barometer falls with the ap-
preaching storm, so did l fall in the
estimation Of my travelling compan-
ions as the result of that little bit
of self-sacrifice. If had but half
hour on the summit of Mt Washing

or view, would decide in the self
same way, however.
In passing, let me say that the
prospect from Mt. Washington's alti-
tudinous crown is one that cannot
easily be described in too extrava-
CANT language. In way, it is even
more wonderful than the cycloramic
outlook from the top of Pixies Peak,
which stands twice as high in the
world as does "Old Agiochook."
The normal radius of observation
extends for about 100 miles, taking

Let us suppose another case: If we

then the treasury receives duty on the
foreign article and the manufacturers
collect nine times as much on the
