railways had so far ceased to work
that the average freight. car moved
but twenty miles a day.
What is to prevent the recurrence
of all those awful sacrifices of HUI
man life of which Thompson speaks?
Have the railways increased their
trackage, or their motive power, or
their equipment? Not at all. 1t is
questionable If they have as much
of the latter two as they had three
years ago. When the nard times
came, and their cars were idle, and
their engines in the round houses,
did they build new engines, and
double-track their lines, and order
new cars? No.
Why?
Because they were trying to keep
out of the hands of receivers, and to
pay dividends which would keep the
Hills and Harrimans and Goulds and
nawleys from loss in the stock
market. Stock quotations had to be
Kept up whether railways were or
not.
Is this good sense on the part of
our railway management? Is it pa
triotism? Is it even common hu-
manity? Was there ever a clearer
issue between the man and the
dollar?

sAMnUsT AND PEACE.

Mr.. Carnegie and the car OF Rus
ia should drop a kind note to ames
D. Hallen. who has just been acquit-
ted Of fraud in New York.
Mr. Hallen sold several tons Of
sawdust to a lot of revolution-pIsn-
ners down in Nicaragua, when they
thought they were getting gunpow-
der.
Here is an entirely new way Of
Keeping the worlds peace. Carne-
gle tried it by building a palace in
Europe. and Gar Nick called a con-
ference to deliver the goods. Then
ne was called back to st. Peters
burg to prevent his palace being
blown up.
Nobody sold him any sawdust.
But Mr.. Hallen hearing there was
20 be another revolution in Nicara-
qua, decided to get in the game. He
let President Zelaya know that he
had a lot OF gunpowder in New York
that could blow his opponents clear
out into the Pacific ocean.
Hallen was wise. He knew that
sawdust would do as well as gun
powder for those trouble-makers,
because. like duelists in France.
they talked at each other. but
didn't kin anybody. So he sent a
shipload of sawdust to start the rev.
olution with.
We cont know what part Of New
England Hallen is from, but he acted
like a real Yankee. His sawdust am
munftion is entitled to a place along
side the Connecticut nutmeg and the
Quaker cannon in the worlds history
or war.
That some judges have a sense OF
humor was evident when the court
IN New York freed Hallen. II seems
that a few Hallens over the worlo,
going about selling sawdust, would
do more for universal peace than all
the Carnegies and Gar Nicks ever
have done.

RAILROAD BUTCHERIES.

Slason Thompson, who writes
things for certain railways, has pub
lished a statement that the reason
for the awful list of railway horrors
in 1867 is purely and simply that
business was so good.
The same thing has been stated
before. In the effort TO move more
traffic than the trackage could &C
commodate or the engines haul, the
railways hurled thousands or human
beings, passengers and employees to
death.
They tried to shunt freight trains
too long for the sidings, and the
trains on the main lines ran into
ends sticking out beyond the
switches. They tried to pull trains
TOO long and too heavy, and they
broke in two and wrecked them
selves and other trains. They tried
to make time by too csose margins
at passing points, and had collisions.
They ran trains too close together,
and a slight delay made dispatchefs
gray-headed, and swelled the roster
OF the slain. They worked trainmen
and keymen too long hours, and they
went blind and helpless from weari-
ness, and sent trains like great pro-
iectives into each other, killing,
slaughtering, manning and sending
horror over the land.
You see business was too good.
There was too much to do. This is
the dreadful fact. 1t is not a FOOLS
assertion.
The railways broke down under
their own traffic. That is the actual
fact. Like any other complicated
machine, our railway machine, press
ed beyond its capacity, ceases to
work well Pressed a little harder,
and II ceases to work at all. AS it
was, in the worst of the best times

Governor Smith 5 Action
Is Strongly Affroved
CLEvELAND. Ca, June q, 10

CLEVELAND, Ga, June q, 1905.
Editor Atlanta Journal:
Please accept my thanks for your
brave stand for the people in stripping
Mr.. McLendon and exposing him in his
political trickery to the full gaze of the
thinking, decent people. 1 have talked
to quite a number OF people and they
all so far approve the action Of our ex-
governor, In suspending the commission.
Let IT be made known that Georgia has
had at least one chief executive who
was not a trimmer, or tme-server. Geor-
gia has had one governor who regarded
Office as a public trust and who would
not shield a friend when that trust must
be violated to do so. Governor Smith
did the only thing that common honesty
could possibly dictate. / grant you that
1t took courage of very high quality to
suspend Mr.. McLendon, but Hoke Smith
was equal thereto. 1 fear that many
moons will wax and wane before this
great state has another governor who
will regard the platform pledges other
than to catch votes.
Let Mr.. Smith in his retirement to prf-
vate life know that he carries with him
the gratitude of a large number of the
people of Georgia, especially those who
believe that government was established
for the people and not for corporations.
Give those who think differently to un-
derstand that this fight is not at an end.
The legislature can, by the temporary
power they now hold violate the Macon
platform and reinstate the commissioner,
but the people in their might viii hurl
them from power for the same reason
that the commissioner was suspended.
Keep up the fight and be not discour-
aged in temporary defeat.
am yours for good government,
]. w. H. UNDERWOOD.

Pull For Good Roads,
a Slogan for the Nation.
New York Herald.

New 1OTk
With the return of the Herald scout
car from the round trip to Atlanta the
magnitude and Importance of the under
taking set on foot by the Herald and The
Atlanta Journal are made exceedingly
plain. Ten states have seen ana cheereo
the good roads missionaries; hundreds OF
communities have been inspired to effort
to better their highways.
Transportation facilities are measure
of commercial progress and Of civilization
In general. OF the railroads of this coun-
try any American may be proud their
efficiency is beyond question. But our
common roads-the paths for carriages
and wagons and automobiles-have been
a national scandal and reproach. Because
of their inferior character, which leVies
heavy toll on every commodity carried,
II has been estimated that good roads
cost this country more than two hundred
million dollars year.
Any project, therefore, that aims to
stimulate interest in the building OF and
maintenance of decent roads deserves en-
couraRement What shall be said, then,
of this magnificent conception OF the
Herald and Atlanta Journal that taxes
for its field the Atlantic seaboard and
aims at nothing less than the construc-
ton of a splendid highway from New
York to the enterprising Georgia capital!
The recent trip of the scout cars was
but the first step in the plan. Next month
will see pathfinders travel between here
and Atlanta to determine the best route
to be followed in the great reliability con-
test for automobiles. which will be held
in the fall.
July and November will be the time
for road construction all along the Sc
lected route. Large cash prizes Will be
given to the counties, north and south,
A., that provide the best highways.
a'Pull for good roads" is the slogan of
the two newspapers promoting this great
enterprise. 1t ought to be the slogan OF
the nation.
