Railroad engineers are probably
contemplating n strike merely on the
matter of wages. The latest statis-
tics of casualties on the railroads OF
the country give an appalling record
that might well cause the public to
go on strike for better guarantees OF
safety for employees and patrons OF
the roads. For the year ending June
30 there we're 1913 more people killed
and 1884 more persons injured on
steam roads than in the previous
killed in the past official year was
1904 and S2.374 injured. Tramps as
well as passengers, victims at cross
ings as well as railroad employees,
were probably included in the total
The aggregate is so large as to be n
national disgrace. Evidently there
exists n degree of carelessness that
would not be permitted in any other
country, and the hope is that in some
manner the authorities, State and
Federal, will find n way to end the
annual slaughter. Think of 1851 col
lisions and 1910 derailments in one
year! Is 1t the frenzied American
haste to do things in the quickest
possible time, or is It a national loose
ness of method, that is responsible
for the faulty operations of the rail-
roads?

moreover, realize that these sprays will

Of the artificial flower make it more de-

kept her interest in the things with which
she is familiar. but kept abreast Of the
times.

in closets and under vindow-seats. On
the ground floor there are more pals and
more hose.

ing to be par excellence the home-seeker's
paradise. Agriculture has in this aspect
taken the place of mining. In former
times the "new country" that offered the
most attractions to settlers from a dis
tance, was that in which gold was taken
out of the ground in big yellow nuggets or
infnitesimal dust; in these later days the
search is still for fortune, but the medium
exploited is the growing the medium ex.
plotted is the growing crop, which can be
turned into gold-or greenbacks-by the
slower processes of planting, cultivating
and harvesting; and the pioneer now
has for bis emblems the gang-plow and
the reaping machine instead of the pick
and pan. Now, the advertising circulars
TEEN with prints in which the settlers
comfortable homestead and happy family
are shown, projected against fields of
heavy-headed grain, trees groaning under
apples and peaches proportionately as
large as watermelons, and the cattle of q
thousand hills grouped in pen by the side
of the railroad, awaiting rapid shipment
where buyers stand in line, longing for
the chance to draw fat checks in payment.
While these pictures attract the eye, few,
if any, have ever bettered their condition
by leaving this county.
