s. P. SAFETY COM
MITT[ES AT WORK

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 10--"Tres-
passing on the railroad right of way is
the greatest cause for railroad fatal
ties according to the investigations
OF the safety committees on the ten
divisions of the Southern Pacific. 1t
has been found that more than fifty
per cent of the accidents that occur
on this road happen to trespassers.
The safety committees on the South
ern Pacific were organized last June
and since that time every accident of
any description has been investigated
by the committee and remedy sug-
gested to prevent a repetition.
Each af the ten divisions of the
Southern Pacific has safety commit
tee that meets once a month to discuss
the accidents of the past thirty days.
majority Of these accidents are
minor, such as smashed fingers and
bruised limbs. Safety First is the
watchword and the particular object
of the meetings is to discuss methods
of preventing srch accidents.
Keeping the slogan Safety First -
uppermost in every employees mind is
a big part of the work of these com
mites. In the seven months that he
safety committees have been in ex-
istenee on the Southern Pacific hund-
reds of remedies for accidents have
been proposed and accepted. Ratings
have been placed around machinery
parts where there had been danger Of
the clothing of a workman being
caught, and .he different shops of the
company are now equipped with safe
ty devices and such accidents are rare
occurrences.
If a trainman walks through the
yard and notices a draw-bar or some
other heavy piece of metal in the way
it is his duty to move, or have it NOV
ed, so the next person passing, who
may not have such good sight may not
fall over it. Tie sfety committee goes
after the little things just as earnest
ly as it goes after the big ones. The
employe is cautioned to look out for
the interest of his fellow employe as
well as himself The citizen who
walks across the right -of-way in order
to save a few steps is cautioned to
walk where there is no danger.
Cross over at the proper crossing.
Stop, look and listen before you cross.
If these simple rules were followed
the annual fatalities on the railroads
of .the country would be greatly re-
duced.

NEW AUTO ROAD
.SHORTENS DISTANCE

C. II. Lamb, a surveyor from Roch-
ester, who filed new plat with Re-
corder Bonnified this morning, re-
ports the new camp as being lively
these days, with no signs of abate
ment. There is good movement in
town lots and new buildings are being
erected as fast as lumber can be Sc
Eured.
While all eomers to the camp have
been taken care of after a fashion,
conditions in this respect will be inn
proved next week with the opening of
Jordan's new two-story hotel.
This morning 90 men, bound for
Rochester, alighted from Southern Pa
cifc No. and went over to the new
camp by auto during the forenoon.
The town of Lovelock is construct
ing a new auto road to the camp,
which will shorten the distance to 90
miles, as against IL miles from
Oreana. As it takes but one hour to
make the trip by auto, it is thought
that Lovelock will receive the bulk of
the travel for some months to come, at
least.

SOUTH DAKOTA METAL
PRODUCTION IN l91.

The mine production of gold in
South Dakota in 1912, according to
estimates by Charles w.
Henderson, IF the United States Geo.
logical Survey was the largest ever
produced in any one year, the output
being $150,000 above the previous
maximum mine yield of 81 ,657 ,376 in
1908, or about $7,s07 900 in 1912. The
yield of silver showed little change
Both lead and copper were produced
in 1912, the output for each metal
being close to 10000 pounds.
The Homestake mine was operated
continuously throughout the year
with an increased output. This com.
pany's hydroelectrie plant. which has
been under construction for several
years, was completed early in the
year. The T5-ton roaster being built
by the Golden Reward Co. at the mine
on Bald mountain, for the preliminary
treatment of the sulphide ores before
syanidation, was to he in operation by
the end of 1912.
The Wasp No. Co., mining a low
grade ore by steam shovels, made ar
increased yield. Because of the burn
ing of the mill in March, the output
of the Mogul property decreased con
siderably. After the burning of the
mill, the Mogul ore was treated al
the Lundberg, Dorr & Wilson custom
plant, which was also operated
throughout the year on ore from the
Buxton an Bonanza mines. An in
creased tonnage vas mined at the
Trojan property. The New Reliance
Victoria and Deadwood- Standard prop
critics were operated during part OF
the year.
Placer production, chiefly in Pen
ington county and including tn,

Illinois Women DepIore Militancy of
- English Sisters.

Chicago, Feb. 21.-Criticism of the
beligerent attitude of English suffragists
in their campaign to obtain votes for
women is expressed in resolutions signed
by nearly 100 of the leading women "f
the Abraham Lincoln center, one of the
leading Independent institutional churches
of this city, and forwarded today to Lady
Emily Pankhurst in London.
The resolution reads as follows:
We, workers of the Abraham Lincoln
center and friends of woman suffrage,
earnestly deplore the belligerent, law-de-
flying attitude of those sisters in Eng
land who, by their belligerency we fear are
menacing the cause dear to them and to
us. The appeal should be to reason and
not to arms. There is a notoriety that il
not notable. Militancy belongs to the
past, or passing regime that is masculine.
The appeal to reason, the arguments ct
love alone will hasten the coming of the
government based on the hearthstone,
not to the bayonet. The family and not

KANSAS TROOPS READY,
Fort Leavenworth Men Expect to Go

Leavenworth, Kan, heb. 21.-Another
step toward the movement of troops
from Fort Leavenworth was taken
when sixty-four freight cars were
switched from the local yards of the
Missouri Pacific railway to the post
terminals. These cars are being held
by the company for the movement
without expense to the government.
Passenger equipment and motive power
sufficient to make up and haul the
three trains necessary to transport the
Seventh infantry and the First bat
talon of the Nineteenth infantry is
being held in Kansas City it is under
stood.
Telegraphic orders were received at
Fort Leavenworth instructing COM
manding officers to expedite prepara-
tions for field service with all haste.
While it is the opinion of officers at
the fort that the movement southwark
is absolutely certain, none is inclined
to the belief that such movement
would mean a speedy entrance into
Mexican territory. 1t is generally ac-
copied that Galveston would be the
first destination of the troops.

neat little speech of apology.
When the curved tables were built
they were dedicated to the press, but
