Needed Legislation.

The recent railroad wreck in Louis
lana in which 80 persons were killed
and three-score badly injured, has
filled the country with horror. If it
had been nearer home the shock
would have been still greater 1t
seems as if some single appalling ac-
cident if necessary to call the atten-
ton of the public mind to deaths on
railroads and then the censure which
follows is not wholly or undoubtedly
deserved,
The public is stirred up by some
accident where several lives are lost
all at once. 1t pays little heed to the
constant draining of the public blood,
such as the deaths of trespassers,
which amount to several daily on the
vast reaches of railroads in the Unit
ed States. Probably more than fifty
per cent of all deaths on railroads in
the country are those of trespassers.
The passenger has very good
chance to get out alive For 1909
the results showed that a passenger
could travel 1000 times around the
earth without being killed-or he
could travel 60 miles an hour for 22O
years without being killed. Thus
comparatively is the average of safe
ty on American roads made plain.
But the trespasser is in constant
danger, and right here in Vermont he
furnishes at least so per cent of all
railroad deaths, equalling the mortal
ity roll of employees and passengers
combined From 1910 to 1911, in the
United States, 50,70S persons lost
their lives while counting the ties,
and 54,1S3 others were injured. And
Vermont furnished her full share of
the total. 1t is little wonder that the
Vermont public service commission
appeals to the legislature for q, law
against trespassing on railroads; it
is great wonder that the legislature
has for so long turned deaf ear to
the commissions appear.-St Al
bans Messenger.

four-hour working week, an advance of 25
per cent for week workers, the wages of

basis of 30 cents an hour; proper fire pro-
lection and sanitary shops. Joseph NAL
