Statehood and Andrews.


Statehood first, mot because we
love Andrews less as one speaker
put it, "but because we love state
hood more" Or as another pointedly
said "The issue is not Andrews, it is
statehood"
Alluring was the picture that the
orators drew, with all the eloquence
at their command, of the promised
land. of the rich heritage that awaits
this commonwealth upon it's entrance
into the sisterhood of states, but they
always returned with irresistible logic
to the fact that Andrews is the only
leader who can take the people into
this land without delay. 1--WE stand
at the door of Congress, we need on
ly turn the knob and 10, we enter" "
said Hon. Thomas B. Catron.
That the audience was convinced
was manifest from the applause that
swept over it every time the name OF
Andrews was mentioned.
A Splendid Patriotic Audience.

due to trespassing. that laws should be
passed and enforced which would ade-

new RAILROAD BODY.

Permanent Organization Embracing
Five States Formed.
Railroad commissions of five states
met in Chicago the other day and or
ganized permanent association to be
known as the North Central Associa-
ton of hallway Commissioners. The
object of the association Is declared
to be 1.-THE consideration of matters of
mutual interest to the association and
to the public"
The states represented are Illinois.
Michigan. Ohio, Wisconsin and Indi-
ana The movement was started by
the commission Of the state of Michi-
gan. and c. L. Glasgow Of that body
was selected president Of the associa-
ton Commissioner W. II. Boys Of
Illinois was elected vice president and
William Fitzpatrick secretary. The
headquarters of the association will
be In Chicago. and meetings are to be
upon the request of any commission
which is q member Of the association,
The movement is regarded by many
as one of the most important since the
creation of railroad commissions, says
the Chicago Record Herald. In the
discussion preceding the organization
1t was agreed that there is too little
uniformity in the action of the yari-
| Gus state commissions and that gen.
| orally speaking what is of interest to
the shippers and the railroads Of one
state is equally Interesting to those of
| another.
1t is also admitted that there is
lack of sympathy and understanding
| between the commissions and the rail-
roads, and it is desired to get in closer
touch with both the railroads and the
| shippers. 1t is also hoped that the
scope Of the organization may be en-.
larged to include many commissions
and that other organizations Of similar
| character may be perfected to consist
| Of the commissions which have kin.
bred interests by reason Of their terri
torial grouping.
AS beginning the association is di
recting its attention to the elimination
Of grade crossings and to the subject
Of trespassing on American railroads
| Reports on both subjects were made
4 by committees appointed some months
ago when preliminary organization
was perfected. The committee OF
grade crossings, Of which Commission
er Woods of Indiana Is chairman, re
ported that such crossings should b,
eliminated, but the members were a
a loss to know how the movement
could be accelerated.
1. In Indiana, for example, there ar,
more than 1000 unprotected grad
crossings and nearly 10000 In Illinois
; 1t would cost the railroads at leas
$3.50, 100000 in the former state an,
twice that much in the latter to eliml
, nate these crossings. In Indiana tn
railroads have spent only 100000 i
the last FIVE years In eliminating thes
)! crossings, but during the coming yea
they are expected to spend 81 .000, 900.
The committee decided that futur
/ crossings at grade should not be pc
mitted, that the state commission
> should be given the power to d,
j with the separation OF grades and
apportion the cost between the raj
: roads and the municipalities. ths
