THE evolution of the railroads of
the United States and the meas
L ures being taken to correct hastily
constructed lines and to secure the
safety of travellers were described re-
Gently in an interesting manner by w.
L. Park, general superintendent of the
Union Pacific.
In describing the development OF
our roads he brought out the fact that
the construction of the first few miles
was painfully slow and lacked the
essential of elasticity. which, with
other faults soon condemned the ex-
pensive methods Roads then, by stress
of circumstances. drifted to the other
extreme. and little attention was paid
to stability or safety.
The rapid Development of the coun-
try compelled the use of unfinished
roadbeds. little attention was paid to
drainage, and water cut through the
new banks, frequently causing acci-
dents The economical era following
the phenomenal railroad construction
of the last century taught us to build
less hastily and more securely.
The impetus. however, was so great
that builders have as yet hardly
slowed down sufficiently to realize what

operation"
Park pointed out the great expend-
itures now being made to secure con-
ditions for safe operation and to cor
rect the hastily constructed lines of
the era during which as many as 70
600 miles of rail were laid in one dec
ade.
Having provided the features of con-
struction which make for safe opera
tion the management of the Union Pa
cific, said Park, recognizes the value
of right training and education in all
branches of railroading to secure safe
operation as we'll as to educate its
personnel to best utilize the facilities
which have been given them.

PROTEST AGAINST INcINERAToR

ANOk iEtSl-t EftAIOR
Editor Call: North beach was the
first portion of the city of San Fran
cisco to be rebuilt after the disaster Of
April, 1906. The immediate rebuilding
of the locality indicated the unbounded
confidence of the property owners in
the rehabilitation oil the city. The ris-
ing of new North beach from the
ashes of the old was made by a great
sacrifice of the property owners them
the property were necessary in order to
obtain the needed funds to carry on the
work Of reconstruction
Now that this portion of the city has
been rebuilt. why should the inciner-
ator be placed there2 Why should
our property be deprecated in value
when there is so much vacant land in
other parts of the city? Why should
North beach be singled out from all
the rest? 1t is true that there are a.
few factories here. but this is mainly
