CURIOUS ACCIDENT FIGURES.

An interesting and reassuring class
ification of accident statistics has
been made under which il appears
that 299 railroads operating 12O,sO1
OF the 242.2S5 total miles of road in
this country did not have single ia
tility to- passenger during 1918.
This grouping of roads is the more
interesting from the fact that their
120,901 miles OF road exceeds the to-
tai mileage of the British Isles, Ger
many, France, Italy and Austria. Now
when accident prevention is consid-
cred. our attention is very frequently
directed to the fact that the entire
national systems of some European
countries, particularly the United
Kingdom, are often operated during
an entire year with similar lack of
single fatality to passenger.
What is the conclusion? Are we
to deduce that the 120.901 miles of
American road on which no passen-
ger was killed is operated with the
same safeguards as the European sys-
TENS? Or must we adduce that Brit
ish and other systems would kill as
many passengers If operated under
the same physical conditions and lin
itations as the 121,S24 miles OF Am
erican road which did have fatalities
to passengers in 1918?
1t is little puzzling, but no doubt
can exist as TO the need for safety
first precautions on all our mileage.
We may be glad that such a group
ing as that OF the 299 roads with a
clear record can be made. But the
roads that did kill passengers killed
them at wholesale 403 of
them during 1913, or more than one
day. And the number of passen-
gers injured on all roads-on the 299
as we'll as others-was 1859.
OF passengers. employees, trespass-
ers and others. American railroads
killed 10, s64 persons last year and in

have a mathematical expression of a

The Fate of nalistic standpoint.
The Inter-Ooean. Twenty years ago
the Inter Ocean
was one of the most renowned papers
OF the country. 1t was Chicago's
great conservative daily. II was pew
erfui politically and its editor was fhe
chief author of the platform on whico
William Mckinley was elected presi-
dent In those days the Inter Ocean
was worth a million dollars and more.
Less than two weeks ago the Inter-
Ocean went to the journalistic bone
yard and was sold for the compare
lively petty sum of S35.o9O. A report
at the time was that the man who
bought the paper bought it to kill it.

mental mistake of supporting special
interests instead of championing the
welfare of the people. 1t begun up
on its downward course when it be-
came the tool OF Charles T. Yerkes
the street car magnate. For many
years past II has been a rabid stand
patter. There has been nothing too
vicious for il to say about such men
as Wilson, Bryan and La Toilette. II
has been vindictive and abusive. AS
was inevitable it steadily lost ground.
A mint of money was expended on
the paper and able writer's were EN-.
ployed But it was in vain. The
Inter-Ocean stood for predatory
wealth. 1t sneered at every reform.
When the oregon system came into
use our plan was subjected to daily
derision by the Inter-Ocean. The peo-
pie lost all confidence in the principles
of the paper and lost confidence in
its fairness and accuracy. The circu-
lation dwindled and with dwindling
circulation came loss OF advertising
patronage. For several years past
the Inter-Ocean has had the look OF
a paper that was doomed to death and
therefore its forced sale was not sur
prising to trained newspapermen.
There are others papers that in time
will bite the dust as the Inter-Ocean
did IL they do not heed its fate. A
conscience Is an indispensable feature
Of a true newspaper. A newspaper
without soul is like great tree with
roots that are rotting away 1t may
look strong and successful outwardly

Conservation Keynote
OF Governor Hanna's
Address TO Farmers

Il believe in conservation; I believe
in caring for those things we have; ]
believe in conserving the morals and
the health of our people; and / feel
that the question of conservation fr
its true analysis covers a very wide
broad and varied field.
eve need to conserve our lands ir
North Dakota and in order to conserve
and care for them properly, we nee6
two things. First, to keep the people
that we now have, and second to in.
duce people to settle in our midst.
"a great question that lies before US
Is how to bring people into the state
and that is a question that the state
In cooperation with the commercial
clubs, land owners and railroads
should join in solving and in endeav-
oring to turn the tide Of immigration
from northern Europe to North Da-
kota and to induce people from our
northern states, who are seeking new
homes, to settle with us. Our legisla-
ture a year ago realized the import
ance Of this subject and authorized
the appointment Of an immigration
commissioner for North Dakota.
r. This is a good beginning and I
hope that when u next state legisla-
ture shall meet that they will increase
tiiS dppI oprLdlAO Die, make the
field broader, enlarge the scope of the
law and make the immigration de-
partment one of the most important
in. our whole state government. We
need to bring the men who have land
to sell and land to REM in North Da-
kota more closely In touch with those
people who wish to buy land Or rent
land. D.
SIN other words, where men shall
come into North Dakota for the pur-
pose Of purchasing land, there should
not be too much difference between
the prices paid to the person who sells
the land and the price paid for it by
the buyer. In advocating a movement
of this kind, I do not feel that I am in
any way advocating anything that
will be detrimental to the many real
estate men in North Dakota.
1--WE know hat land sales have fall
en- off materially within the last few
years: that many men who were in
the business from 1900 to 1910 have
gone out of the business, but T feel
that the business can be revived and
settlers brought into the state provid-
ed we go at it In the right way and
bring the seller and buyer closer to-
gether and in such a way as not to
place an unnecessary burden upon the
