VITAL WASHINGTON NEWS
TAvENNER, "WRITER THINKER" GIVES US THE
AS THEY REALLY EXIST

These figures are for passengers alone,
and do not include trainmen and 9th
er employees, among whom the fatali-
ties annually reach into the thousands.
Against this slaughter Of American
railroad passengers the British rail
roads, in 1910, killed only 20 passen-
gers, a number greatly in excess of the
average. In 1911 not single passen-
ger was killed in wreck in England.
That these wholesale deaths are not
necessary in this country is proven by
the fact that one of the big Eastern
roads, for the last two years, has used
nothing but solid steel coaches, during
which time not single passenger has
been killed on that road

was freely predicted after the meeting
by both license and anti-license ad-

In addition to the fight in the hear

Mr.. Buchanan has a four-acre farm,
which he cultivates as side line. Last

the proceeds of which scarcely
equaled the cost of production. This

corn, cabbage, turnips, onions and
other truck products, as result o!
which he is now getting big returns
from his effort.
