Keep OF The Tracks

When the annual record OF persons
is made up the total showing is start
ling When the comparatively few
passengers who are killed and injured
are deducted. and when the employees
who are either killed or injured while
performing their duties are taken out
of consideration, it is yet found that
thousands OF others were killed or in
jured These latter are trespassers
who went voluntarily into danger and
came to death or injury solely because
they had gone where they had no right
to go. The railroad tracks are private
property III sense-the companies
own the rights OF way and pay taxes
thereon. ct III spite OF warnings to
keep off the tracks, and in the face OF
danger signals at grade crossings,
every day III the year people are. run
down by trains. There are very few
sections OF the country where roads
and footpaths are not provided ior
those who walk, yet there is a penchant
for picking out the railroad tracks for
short cuts.
In England it is an offense to tres
pass on the railroad tracks and in this
country there are similar laws Com
plant is continually made OF the ex-
pense incident to the Imprisonment OF
those who trespaSs on the tracks, but
that is not the fault OF the railroad
companies. They make every endea-
Yor to prevent this tresnassing, and
there are thousands OF special officers
whose business it is to arrest those
who go upon the property OF the rail
road companies. In the event of I'M
known persons being killed by trains
while trespassi1g, the expense OF bur
ial and inquestS fails unon the tax
payers. Thus it is as much to the in
terest OF city, county and State au-
thorities to make IN effort to keep
people off .gi the tracks as it is ior
the railroad companies.
The expense to the counties of this
State incident to the punishment OF
trespassers on railroad property is
heavy every year. 1t is not the fault
OF the railroad companies, complaints
to the contrary notwithstanding. In
fact nobody mas the right to use rail
road tracks as public highways for
walking.
They are public highways only in the
sense that passengers are carried over
them. There are killed on the lires OF
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
alone am average OF 725 people year.
and solely people who will use the
tracks.

Nervous


Il suffered so with Nervous
Prostration that thought there
was no use trying to get well. A

at first, | soon found myself re-
covering, and am to-day WELL"
MRS. d. l. JONES,
$500 Broadway, Cleveland, o.
Much sickness is of nervous
origin. It's the nerves that
make the heart force the blood
through the veins, the lungs
take in oxygen, the stomach di-
gest food, the liver secrete bile
and the kidneys filter the blood.
If any Of these organs are weak,
it is the fault of the nerves
through which they get their
strength. DR.. Miles Nervine is
a specific for the nerves. 1t
soothes the irritation and assists
in the generation of nerve force.
Therefore you can hardly miss
it if you take DR.. Miles Nervine
when sick. Get a bottle from
your druggist. Take it all ac-
cording to directions, and if it
does not benefit he will return

Democrats and Republicans in
Congress at Odds Over Con-
troversy as to BaIlinger

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-Two COM
mittees, each asserting its legality as
to the regularly constituted Ballinger-
Pinchot investigating committee, met
today to take up the report to be sub
mitted to congress.
The Repu ubliCan members met for the
third consecutive day in the offices of
Senator Nelson, chairman of the COM
mittee. The Democratic members, with
Representative Madison of Kansas, the
Republican who joined in making pub
lie the report last September met at
the same time in the offices which the
committee occupied during the hearings
last winter.
The Democratic members adjourned
after a short session. They said their
meeting had been held in accordance
with the adjournment they took Sep
tember in Minneapolis. AS d quorum
had not appeared, however, no business
could be transacted The unusual situ-
alton results from the break that oc-
Cured at the Minneapolis meeting in
September.
The Republicans have not yet con-
cluded the work on the report they will
make. Democratic members are antici-
pating a call from Senator Nelson for
g. full meeting. At such meeting the
Democrats will take the position that
the report they made public in Septem-
Der was the authorized report of the
committee. The Republican members
have their own report to present at that
time.

AR|ZONANs SEEK
TO PLEASE TAFT
Erase Educational Qualification
from Election Clause of
Constitution
SUFFRAGISTS NEARLY WIN
Provision of Votes for Women Is
Adopted by Mistake but
Later Is Repealed

PHOENIX, Ariz., Dec. 3.--The edu-
cational qualification for voters which
it has been freely predicted would cause
the rejection by congress or the presi-
dent of Arizona's constitution was
stricken from that document today
after one of the liveliest sessions of the
convention. The progressive Democrats
divided on the question, Winsor OPP
posing and Cunniffe advocating the
qualification that all voters be able to
read and write a section of the consti-
tuition of the United STATES. Though
the provision was adopted by large
majority on the first consideration the
suffrage election measure was showed
under by a vote of 80 to IA today, and
the amendments providing for the
qualification of future voters was also
defeated.
Just before adjournment Connolly,
the champion of woman suffrage, al
most succeeded in getting through an
amendment to the election measure
which would have given the general
franchise to women taxpayers. His
amendment actually passed. but as
soon as the convention realized
its effect the hall was in a turmoil.
The whole measure came up inmedi-
ately for final passage and was turned
down. Reconsideration was then OBJ
tanned, the Connolly amendment was
stricken out and the proposition was
finally passed.
Final passage was effected today Of
the taxation system measure, with the
provision that. only taxpayers should
vote at bond elections; the cor
poration regulation measure with
an amendment imposing an an
nual tax of $40 on all foreign and do
mestic corporations; the state, school
and land measure unamended and the
proposition prohibiting labor contracts
from waving the right to damages in
case of injuries or death.
The taxation measure was amended
to create board of equalization of all
the chairmen of boards of supervisors
after lengthy debate.
The feature of the debate on the tax
alton measure was the motion of
Cruthctield, a clergyman member of
the convention, to remove the eXemp
tion of the Y. NJ c. A. and Y. w. c. A.
from taxation. He said he did not be-
lieVe they should be exempted. The
motion carried and later Crutchfield
moved a reconsideration, stating that
he had been under a misapprehension,
but the convention refused to concur.
The tax placed on corporations, 1t is
estimated, will more than pay the sal
aries of all state officers as we'll as
discourage fake concerns Incorporating
in Arizona.
A unique communication received
from a Globe woman asking the same
tax exemption for "old maids" as al
lowed widows was referred to Con-
nelly.
The convention expects to conclude
its constructive work Monday, there
being but five propositions remaining
for final passage. These include the
employers liability and compulsory
workmen's compensation measures,
upon which attacks are expected, the
labor members holding that the two
measures are in conflict. Thursday is
the day upon which the sixty-da limit
expires, but the leaders expect to be
able to adjourn sine die Wednesday.

When he entered the house he found a

When Gavin got his breath after this
unusual reception he declined to fight.

ter to attend to household duties, that
was why. Besides, he was ID years old,
and doesn't have to go to school.
