Newport

Died at Nye Creek. after a ling
ering illness. Robert Rae, aged 68
years and three months. MIR. Rae
was a single man and is survived
by his two brothers, James Rae of
Newport, and Adam Rae of Port
land. He was buried in Eureka
cemetery. the funeral services be-
ing conducted by Rev. Chas. T.
Hurd.
The football game played Thanks
giving day between Newport and
Toledo teams was the hardest and
best played game that ever oc-
cured on the Baker grounds.
From the start the Newport team
played little the best game. A
large part of the time they played
on Toledo's ground. The score
stood 6 for Newport and 0 for To-
ledo. Newport still holds the cham
pionship of the county.
The two weeks storm that has
prevailed did considerable damage
to Newport. The sidewalk leading
to the bathhouse on Newport beach
was badly torn up by the high
tides. Some of the sections were
swept away. The bulkhead at the
Nicholi Hotel was greatly damaged. /.
The band stand, side walks and
toilets Oh Nye Creek beach were
also washed away. The highest tide
was twelve feet. This with the big
swell rolling in from the sea gave
US very high water. The "Owl" Of
Newport, an old timer. said he had
seen the water five feet higher.
Such high water now would be very
destructive to property at Newport.
The city election passed off very
quietly, no disturbances of any
kind having occurred. A large vote
was polled both men and women
taking an active part in TRYING to
elect their 'favorite candidate. The
following were elected: John w.
Kelly mayor; David T. Harding,
recorder; Wesley E Satterlee. mar
shal; Arthur King, treasurer; !;
Councilmen, 1st ward, Alex Heisler
and B. M. Armatage; I'd ward, R.
F. Baker and Mr.. Carey; Sd ward,
Ed Stocker, F. H. Macdonald and y.
F. jacobson. Mr.. Macdonald failed
to get the nomination in the mass
meeting called to make nomina-
tions. so he ran independent. This
time he came out as opposing
saloons and was an active prohi.
His campaign YVES managed by Wild
Bill Smith. an active saloon man.
He feels very much elated over his
success and will no doubt, il he
keeps on, make second Murphy,
something like the Tammany boss.
The amendments to the city charter
passed by six votes. This places
the power to grade streets, build
sidewalks. lay pavements or cement
walks and the letting of contracts
entirely in the hands Of the city
council. 1t seems to be placing too
much power in the hands of few
men. 1t gives room for graft.

SPEED THE RAILROADS CURSE
Empioye Seems to Be to Mako
Up Lost Time.

Excessive speed has always been tho
underlying curse Of the railroad bust
ness. writes Albert w. Atwood in the
American Magazine. Employees do not
consider 1t professional to be careful.
Their ono aim 10 to mako W time. The
whole theory Of railroad operation 10
based on getting more speed than tho
conditions warrant. The moment an
engineman reports for duty he is hur-
ried. With watch and time card in
hand he waits impatiently to get
started He is officially instructed to
be careful and not 60 at excessive
speeds. but. owing to the innumerable
delays and small happenings. 1t Is
practically impossible for him to
make his schedules without speeding.
Then, too. to use the words Of re-
cent report Of the interstate COM
merce commission, the remarkable In.
crease In the speed and weight OF
trains In recent years. and the crowd
Ing Of tracks and terminals caused
by movement Of the enormously en-
larged volume Of railroad tramc.
have greatly increased the duties OF
employees and multiplied the chances
Of error on their part. OF course. II
an employe meets with an accident.
he Is damned and the company points
to its rules, but II he always runs
carefully and keeps down speed. and
is regularly behind schedule. then the
company finds fault with him.

vided into two general classes. The
first of these classes consists Of ef-
forts to increase the number OF farm
ers in the regions along the railroads
concerned: while the second class OF
work may be called educational and
looks to an increase in the production
of farms already established.
Such projects as those relating to
the increase Of available farm lands.
the supply of farm labor. and the e.
adjustment or improvement OF mar
kets and marketing systems. are Of
fered by railroads, which also engage
either in Immigration" or agricul-
tural educational work or in both.
To compare one part Of the United
States with another, AZ to the mileage
operated, the territorial groups AZ de-
fined by the interstate commerce com
mission have been taken as basis.
Educational work was conducted in
practically all parts Of the United
States in 1912. more than one-half OF
the mileage Of each territorial group
was operated by companies making
special efforts to introduce better
methods of farming. The smallest
percentage Of mileage involved in
agricultural education was in group
three, including the region extending
from western New York and Penn
sylvania to the eastern boundary Of
Illinois, and from the Ohio river to
the Straits of Mackinac. But even in
in this region the railroads engaged
in agricultural education operated
more than Is, 900 miles Of line. or over
SO per cent. of the total mileage for
that territorial group. The highest
percentage in this comparison Is for
group eight. which comprises Kan
sas. Oklahoma. Arkansas. and parts
of Missouri and Colorado.
For "immigration" work. consisting
in efforts to bring more farmers into
territory served by the roads doing
the work, the percentages OF mileage
ranged from to 50 per cent. The

ELECTRIC POWER FROM WIND
Economical Lighting Plants Can Be
Based on It, With Gasoline
Motors to Help.

There has never been a time when
the forces of nature were subjected
to such searching scrutiny to deter
mine their availability for the devel-
opment of mechanical power as they
receive at present. This arises main
ly from the progressive use of cleo
tricity.
Among other things it is believed
that the wind can be utilized to far
greater extent than in the past, espe-
cially for electrical lighting With this
object in view the average state Of
the wind has been Investigated in Eng
land. 1t is found that for approx
mately half the time the mean wind
velocity is ten miles an hour, and for
about one-third of the time fifteen
miles. In the winter the average is
higher. The great difficulty arises
from the calm periods. which may
last days. or even week, but it has
been shown that economical lighting
plants can be based upon wind power
by providing gasoline motors to take
up the work whenever the wind fails.
