A STITCH IN THE.

A year ago the Chicago & North.
western railway company appointed
safety committee to see il anything
could be done to reduce the number OF
accidents both on the road and in the
shops. In sixteen months this COM
mittee lessened the number of killed
by one hundred and seven persons and
the number of injured by almost four
thousand, as compared with the pre-
vious sixteen months. Other COM
panies adopted the plan; the RAILROAD
commission of Indiana has recon-
mended that it be made universal in
that state; and before long the national
government is likely to consider it.
In the significant words of the presi-
dent of the North western: sit shows
what can be done when men make p
their minds that it is better to cause a
delay than to cause an accident. -
