 Meanwhile, railroad rates have de creased during the last 20 years; pas senger traffic now pays 1892 cents per mile, and freight traffic pays only .O|4l per ton per mile, as against .OS9S per ton in 1892. This means that for the cost of a 2-cent stamp you can ship a ton of freight nearly three miles. There are other items which have also increased the railroads bur den of expense. Safety appliances, shorter hours and more crews. steel cars, bigger locomotives, requiring heavier rails and heavier bridges. have added enormously to the rail roads investment These improve ments have been made mostly by di- version of dividends which might have otherwise been paid to the stockhold- CTS. As consequence the per mile capitalization of American roads stands at only $6l,50S per mile. while that of Great Britain is $275.374. and Tn all Europe, including Asiatic Rus sia, the per mile capitalization of the railroads is $121,453, about two times that of the American roads. If it be urged that greater land values there partly account for the greater capital lzation, we might make comparison with New Zealand and South Wales. where land is worth less than here, and where no big cities make costly terminal facilities necessary. In New Zealand the capitalization is s55,574 per mile on tracks which are mostly narrow gauge, 3 feet inches wide. In South Wales the capitalization is s6S.- 2SS per mile. While we are consider. ing capitalization we hear it urged ire quently that the stocks in American roads carry lot of water but we ought to reflect that while it is true that much stock was originally given as bonus when pioneer roads were trying to sell their bonds, there have

of the case have not been fully stated When we stop to consider that rail- road securities have been the favorite form of investment with insurance companies, both life and fire; with savings banks, trust companies, estates in which there may be score of heirs, some in their m.uorities; edu- cational and philanthropic endow- ments, etc, we begin to realize who owns these traffic lines which are the very arteries through which the blood of our commercial life must flow. II their ownership were only in the hands of the 500,000 shareholders, whose names are registered on the stock books, it would mean that the average owner was the proprietor of only one-third of mile of track, but when we reflect that large life, fire and accident insurance companies alone held in 1905 railroad stocks and bonds amounting to approximately $S50, 100000, that the savings banks of ly $835, 5,000,000 of railroad securities, and, according to the Comptroller of Currency, in 1910, the trust companies and national and state banks held S6S0,000,000 of these securities, and when we reflect that there are over 10,000,000 depositors ip American sav- ings banks alone, to say nothing of the millions of policy-holders in insur ance companies, we begin to realize who, after all are the owners of these steel ribbons which run to the four corners of the continent.

wages of their employees have been in- creased 170.S per cent during the 20- year period, In 1892 they employed 560 people to each hundred miles of track, while in 1912 they required 695 people. Even since 1902, when it was officially reported that the pay roll on American railroads amounted to $676,- 02S,590, there has been an increase of wages more than double that figure, while the number of employees has only increased from 1.1S9,315 to 1,72S,000, which means 100 per cent increase in wages with only 43 per cent increase in the number of em- ployes. During these Il years the average pay of employees has advanced from $56S per year to an average of nearly $500. In 1892 the wages paid cent of the gross revenue; today it is APO per cent. This increase of per cent in wages means per cent on $3, 100000 ,000 of gross income, or $150, 100000 year in wages above the rate that was paid in 1892. There has also been an increase in the cost of materials, equipment, etc. Ties used to cost 50 cents or SO cents apiece;
 now even poor ones cost 75 cents. The railroads of the country use about 150,000,000 ties year. This differ ence in cost amounts to about $30,000,000. As late as 10 years ago coal cost the roads S7 cents a ton at the mine; it now costs SIP. Taxes during the 2O-year period have in- creased 254.9 per cent, while the net capitalization has increased during the same period only 767 per cent. Twenty years ago the railroads paid taxes of $34,059,4 ,495: in 1912 they paid
 $120,S73,472 In other words, the rail roads pay in the form of taxes approx imately one-quarter as much as they pay to the owners, their stockholders.
 Another increased charge upon the railroads has been the larger terminal
