RAILROADS. VS.. CONSUMPTION.

Truly it is startling to learn from
the report of the Interstate Com
merce Commission that 1888 per-
sons were killed by the railroads in
three months. 1t is possible that
with due care and all the proper pre-
cautions are taken, and the care
lessness ofthose who are intrusted
with the carrying out of the rules
that make for safety.
More startling and grea.er sac
1itice to Indifference and careless
ress is the fact that in the same
three months $1,000 died OF con-
sumption, more than TWEEN give
times the number killed by the
railroads. Those who have made a
study of this plague, which is carry
ing away more people in Washing
ten every year than were killed. or
fatally wounded in the war With
Spain, declare most of these geo
lives could have been saved d" the
taking the proper preventive Or cu-
rative measures, for consumption is
both preventable and durable.
Washington has organiz1 pre-
ventive movement. This wDrI is in
| the hands of an expert and experience
ed committee, and this committee
has called upon the citizens for the
! contribution of something less than
! $1,000 to enable it to carry on its
/ work of saving the lives of those al
ready stricken, and preventins 9th
ers being smitten with this awfuI
curse of modern civilization
! Remember, consumption is no re-
specter of persons. 1t is not poor
mans disease. 1t invades the homes
! of the wealthy and luxurious, as
well asthose of perjury. The appeal
of the committee is an appeal in be-
! half OF all the citizens, an appeal IN
