When he alighted from his train
here some three months ago, Arthur Z.
Hogan of Dunlap, Iowa, who came to
take the baths, had to have the assist
snce of others in going to his room N
Hotel Grand. He left this city this
morning feeling as an entirely new man
and one SO near full recovery that he
no longer needed the baths or hot min.
eral waters.
When he came here he was suffering
with one of the worst cases of stomach
trouble ever encountered by his Iowa
physicians He had been told by
them I'VE can do you NO good at all. !"
Reads like a patent medicine sd.,
but it is the story of Mr.. Hogan, who
said to reporter of the Post:
81 can never forget the good done
me by your mineral waters and the
cave baths. When 1 came here 1 was
told to throw my medicine away. This
seemed strange to me, but Dr.. Crook
told me the same thing and l did it.

water every morning and never
weighed rs much in ny life. 1 only
wish 1 were rich; would charter =
special train and would visit every
town between here and my Iowa home
and then ON to my former home in
Illinois. I would stop in every towr
and tell the people what your baths
asd waters have done for No. know
it will be hard for the Iowa people to
realize that such great good has been
accomplished in such . short time. 1
am also positive that from now on
shall become your greatest booster.
Your waters and baths have saved my
life for am sure that few more
weeks in Iowa would have brought my
death. I can never say enough for the
waters or for the good people who
have been % kind to ne here. I wrote
to your postmaster and he gave the
letter to Mr.. Csaady, who answered 1t.
I wrote 70 ether health resorts, but his
letter was 30 straightforward and

only place to try, % came to your

GOOD CaoP YIELD

Reports being received from over
the county relative to the crop yield
this year indicate that Garfield county
ranehers have done exceptionally veil
this year. Word comes from z. b.
Higgins, who secured the Joe Luxen

bushels to the acre; his oats seventy
five bushels and his potatoes $50 bush

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 minorities; 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. If
their ownership were only in the
hands of the 100000 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
$3.50, 200, 900, that the savings banks of
the country in 1909 held approximate
| ly $685., 600 of railroad securities.
and, according to the Comptroller of
Currency. in 1870 the trust companies
and national and state banks held
$3.50, 100000 of these securities, and
when we reflect that there are over
| 100000 depositors in American saw
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

corners of the continent. | submit to

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
.074l per ton per mile, as against
0S9S 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-
ers. AS a consequence the per mile
capitalization of American roads
stands at only $61,508 per mile, while
that of Great Britain is $275,374, and
in all Europe, including Asiatic Rus

urged that greater land values there

where land is worth less than here

to be the case, by the people at large,

Let US frankly admit right here that
there is good deal of excuse for pop
ular hostility to past railway manage
ment. We cannot soon forget what
some financiers have done in the past
TO certain railroads. Even at this very
moment the quivering form of the
proud old New Haven & Hartford lies
PROSTATE in the dust, bleeding from
the wounds where High Finance
stabbed her. But we will not forget
that more than half the stock of the
New Haven belongs to comparatively
small holders. There were 21,948 of
them in 1912. and many of the num-
Der are women. We cannot forget
that. while piracy has attacked the

wages of their employees have been in
creased 1908 per cent during the 20
year period. In 1892 they employed
$50 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 $685.
028,590, 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
1,728,000, which means 100 per cent
increase in wages with only 43 per
ployes. During these II years the
average pay of employees has advanced
from S568 per year TO an average Of
nearly $500. In 1892 the wages paid
to employees amounted TO 1928 per
cent of the gross revenue; today 1t is
4420 per cent. This increase of per
cent in wages means per cent on
$4,000, 100000 of gross income, or
$3.50. 100000 a year in wages above the
rate that was paid in 1892. There has
also been an increase in the cost of

to cost so cents or so cents apiece;
now even poor ones cost IS cents. The
railroads of the country use about
