The contractors in building the road
from Grantsville to Keyser Ridge have
had MANY obstacles to overcome. The
five mile stretch between "Shades of
Death" and Keyser Ridge, three miles
east of Grantsville, is under construc-
ton. This break has been a difficult
task in road building on account of be-
ing unable to get the proper kind of
stone and other material used in maca-
dam construction. Water has also been
problem to the contractor, and it has
been necessary to haul water several
miles to sprinkle the macadam that is
being laid, and to operate the stone
crusher on top of Meadow Mountain.

Statistical Record of The Progress
OF The United States, 18OO-1914

| WASHINGTON, u. u, NOV. 1J.-An
epitomized record OF the nation 5
growth in area, population and re-
sources it contained in pamphlet just
issued by the Department of Commerce
through its Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce, entitled Stats
teal Record of the Progress of the
United States, 1SO0-1914.' In all cases
where the statistical data permit, the
tables cover more than a century; the
later Inauguration OF certain lines of
statistics necessarily restricts, in
those cases, the period covered
A half-century retrospect, readily
available by reference to tables appear
ing in the pamphlet, affords clear
perspective of the nations growth
Since 1850 the population of the United
States has more than quadrupled, be-
ing approximately 100 million at the
present time. In the same period,
however, foreign commerce has grown
from 31S million to 4,259 million dol
lars and the per capita value of ex-
ports from $16.96 to $23.27. National
wealth has increased from 7 billion
dollars in 1870 to approximately 140
billions; money in circulation, from 279
million to 3,419 million; and New
York bank clearings from approx
mately billion to over SO billion dol
clearings have grown from 50 billion
in 1887, the earliest year for which fig
ures are available, to ia billion in
1918.
Evidences of improved social condi-
tiens among the people are also found
in the Statistical Record" For ex-
ample, 10 million children are now en-
rolled in public schools and about
100000 students in colleges and other
higher institutions of learning, and
the total expenditures on behalf of ed
ucation now approximate S500,000000
a year, the result being rapid in
crease in general intelligence and a
marked decrease in illiteracy. Over 22,-
900 newspapers and periodicals are
disseminating information among the
people, and the report shows a steady
growth in the number of libraries in
the country. In 1850 depositors in
savings banks were PSI, 900 in number;
today the number is II million with de-
posits, exclusive of those in other saw
ings institutions, aggregating 4 ga
billion dollars, or more than 100 times
as much as at the middle of the last
century.
Increased activity on the farms, in
the factories, and in the great trans
portation industries has also develop
ed during the last half-century. The
value of farms and farm property in
creased from A billion dollars in 1850
to Il billion in 1910; the value of man
ufactures, from l billion to over 20
billion; and the number of miles of
railway in operation, from 9,021 in 1850
to 25S,053 in 1912. In the last quar-
ter-century the number of passengers
carried has increased from 492 million

LONDON GUARDED FROM

GREAT CITY In DARKNESS THESE
NOVEMBER NIGHTS-AUTO
DRIVERS RECKLESS
(By Associated Press.)

| LONDON, Nov. 19-The lowered
lights order issued to hide London
from marauding airships now has been
extended to the whole country. The
restrictions are not as rigid in the pro-
vincial cities as in the capital, but
they prohibit any sky signs and other
conspicuous Examinations.
Curtains of passenger train coaches
must, under the new order, be drawn
while trains are travelling at night
Authorities evidently believe trains
might act as guides to the enemy's
airships.
"The famous Guild Hall, which is
the town hall of London, has been
insured against damage by air craft
for $2,0O0,OOO. The premium paid
was $4,000. st. Pauls and Westmin-
ster Abbey also have been insured, ac-
cording to current reports.
THE majority of London's popula-
ton apparently is beginning to. be re-
sentful instead of appreciatiye of
these precautions. Now that the
short days have begun, the discom-
forts of darkened city are increas-
ed. Three persons have been killed
on the streets at night during the
past week.
The commissioner of police has is
sued an appeal to motor drivers to
lessen the burden on the police. A
spirit of rush and recklessness, arising
from war time excitement, accounts
largely for careless driving. Hun
dreds of motors are employed on mil
itary duties and these carrying the

streets at speed that sets a de-
moralizing example to drivers OF
taxis and private cars.
From German wireless messages
Londoners have heard that thousands
are fleeing to Scotland from fear of
the Zeppelins. That is the first news
of any such exodus that had been di-
vulged here. Old ladies SILVER at the
word Zeppelin but the general public
is apathetic. The seaside hotels at
Brighton and other Channel resorts
are filed with their usual compile
ment of the leisure classes, notwith-
standing the chances of a lombard
ment, which the German dash to
Yarmouth this week showed dan
ger to be reckoned with.
England is to have it's own feet Of
dirigibles by the beginning of next
year, if plans of a company recently
formed with a capital of $1,000.000
prove successful. Works now are be-
ing constructed the promoter says.
The new airships, although smaller
than the Zeppelins, are described as
vastly more dangerous.
