ways some employe. Who is to blame
for putting engineers and conductors
up against it in this manner? Rail
road companies take chances of the
lives of their employees, passengers
and loss of equipment every day, just
TO save few dollars, and in the end
pay out in damage suits. loss Of
equipment, delays to traffic, etc, a
sum far in excess of what it would
cost to prevent just such accidents
as have happened in the last few
years.
Citizens of this state, we are get
ting an International reputation for
killing passengers. Are you not
aware of the fact that it is detrimen-
tai to the best Interests of everybody
interested in any manner in our state
to have wrecks of this kind happen
with due regularity? Our lawmakers
are in session. Get busy. Put laws
on our statute books that will com
pei the railroads to give their patrons
all the protection available.
This proposition of our lives and
the lives of our dear ones being in
the hands of one man when travelling
is absurd. The mechanical world has
completed many practical devices
which have reduced chances to a min
imum, But the railroads do not
avail themselves Of them.
