Old World and it's Making Into the
Jew A Story of the Mediums of De-
velopment-The Building of Empires

The first Illustration is a very good in
dex to the contents Of the book, and the

Hour to 1000 Tons Thirty Miles an
Hour, showing the progress made in
transportation from primitive days to
the present, and the consequent prog
ress Of prosperity. This book is in
tended to show the story of mans ma
terial civilization, progress and pros
perity.
1t is really a very wonderful work
and the author has a very apt way of
forcibly presenting his arguments.
Among the subjects treated are,
The Essential Forces Making for
Progress and Prosperity; The Magni-
tude OF the Railroad; The Making of
Nations; The Greatest Revolution of
the World; Artificial Waterways;
The Real Winners of the West; The

to Gen. Grenville NJ. Dodge, the pio-
neer of the Pacific railroads, who was
personally sent west by President
Lincoln in 1853 to take charge of the
work of cementing the Pacific coast
to the east. and who SO well accom-
plished this work. General Dodge is
still living and is a resident Of New
York city and is held in the highest
respect by all who have ever known
him.

the practical economist has fulfilled
his promises ito make wheat fully as
cheap as rice FIR the millions of the
Orient" h a the farmer of the north
west might profit by the new demand.
An interesting chapter is given on
North Dakota, commencing witt the
early explorations of this section by
the French Canadians in 1880 and the
later expeditions by Lewis and Clark.
The land here was originally owned
by France. being a part of the Louisi-
ana purchase. and at one time North
Dakota was part of Missouri territory
and later of Minnesota territory, md
On March 2. 1861 Dakota territory was
organized and embraced not only
North and South Dakota but Montana
and Wyoming as we'll. The wonderful
progress which has been made by the
state is well described and consider
able Of it is attributed to the con-
struction of the railroads.
The entire book is a strong argu-
ment showing the wonderful develop
ing powers of the transportation lines
and is full Of forceful arguments pre-
scented in the most pleasing way
which n illustration of this will suf-
fee:
In transportation, the average pas
senger should be considered in tons.
Fifty-eight passengers on the aver
age ride on each train weighing ap-
proximately $50 tons.
Therefore, to transport each passen-
Ger, the railroad must move four and
a hall tons Of equipment, or dead
weight, useful only in making it pos
sible to carry a passenger in safety
and comfort.
1.-THE average passenger pays 1.a1
cents a mile; this is for himself and
his baggage plus the four and a half
tons of vehicle. At this rate, then,
the road would hsIl him and his foul
and a half tons of equipment 100
miles at a charge Of about AZ cents a
ton, which is cheaper than many
freight charges. Each passenger car
ried pays s. cents for his average
trip.
-,
Excluding non-paying passengers,
each inhabitant of the United States
takes approximately ten trips on the
railroad yearly of thirty three miles
each. The cost of this service is only
IL cents per day per capita. But if the
individual does not choose to travel,
there is. Of course. no carrying charge
for him o pay"

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

1t was over a strong opposition that
the nostal savings banks were estab-
lished. One of the strongest argu
ments in their favor was that they
would tend to check the enormous fiow
of money to foreign countries-as de.
posts of the earnings of foreigners
living in this country. This position
taken in behalf Of the postal savings
banks it seems has been amply sus-
tanned. The international money or
der business in New York has shown
a decrease Of $6,5 500. 900 since the post
al banks We're opened in that city.
The foreign-born population in New
York is very large--and annually
sends an enormous amount OF money
away to be deposited in the banks OF
their native countries. The falling off
in the international money order bus
mess in that city since the postal
savings banks have come into use is
significant.
