UNJUST CRITICISM.

The Moorhead Citizen says:
Right off the jump, the Fargo
papers. and especially The Forum,
are giving Moorhead dirt by only
mentioning Fargo in the big mead
lines with regard to the ball team.
1t was understood, Wnen Moorheao
went into the deal, that 1t was a
Fargo Moorhead team; but, OF
course, some people are not right
in Fargo, and never will be. In
the small print you find Fargo
Moorhead. If they want to be fair,
1 why not Use "Graingrowers," the
name given them? We want Moor
head mentioned just as often as
Fargo so icng as our citizens put
up plenty Of dough for It. We sug-
@eSt that our committee make
Die newspapers in Fargo keep their
1Sord for once, at least. We want
al the advertising we can get out
@ 1t.
This criticism comes with mighty
poor grace from Moorhead. The Fo-
rum. through the pages Of publicity
that IL has devoted to the Fargo-Moor-
head team, has already given Moor
head advertising hat Is going to bring
a stream Of cold hard dollars into the
pockets Of it's merchants and business
men this summer.
Moorhea[ has no more consistent,
persistent and everlasting booster than
IL has in The Forum. This paper is
constantly spreading the fair fame Of
Moorhead broadcast over the north
west, and this is especially true re-
garding Moorhead's connection with
the local baseball team.
The words Fargo-Moorhead have
been printed by The Forum thousands
Of times. in large type and small type,
and It has only been on one or two
occasions that the word Fargo alone
has inadvertently slipped through. De-
spite all the advertising that The Fo-
rum has given Moorhead, advertising
that would have Gost that city thous-
ands of dollars at space rates, and will
be worth thousands in hard cash to
its merchants when great crowds flock
to that city later in the summer
drawn here by Forum publicity-there
are a few who are knocking.
The Forum is glad to say. however
that the majority os the residents o.
Moorheaa appreciate that The Forum
is just a3 much interested in the
growth, progress and prosperity Of
Moorhead as it is in seeing Fargo
forge ahead.

LOVE LAUGHS At LAWS

The old adage, Love laughs at
locksmiths," will have to be revis-
ed in the light of modern develop
ments, to Love laughs at laws"
For over in Wisconsin, where
they have a brand new eugenic law,
couples r laughing at the sages
who passed it, and the officials who
are trying in a half-hearted way
to enforce it. All they must do is
to slip over into Michigan, have the
knot tied, and then return trium-
plant to their homes. 1t seems to
make no difference to the couples
that they are liable to indictment,
even If married in another state,
unless they conform to the eugenic
requirements of the act. As the
wife in n of the clipping couples
said, %defiantly: We're married:
what can they do to us?" What
indeed, can the authorities do?
Residents of other state will watch
with b%reathless interest this expert
ment in guaranteeing the purity of
the race. Thus far the law has
had a stormy career and a disast-
rOus one, and with the doctors and
intending couples leagued together
with the full purpose of defeating
it, the celebrated eugenic marriage
law of Wisconsin ran hardly be any,

RA|LROAD|NG so YEARS AGO

A most interesting exhibit of the
early days Of railroading in this
country has been found by the
Railroad Age Gazette. 1t is a
schedule for passenger trains and
rules for the conduct Of engine
men and conductors on the Western
and Atlantic, which was at the time
and still is owned by tire state Of
Georgia. The table is dated March
J, 1852, and was issued by William
M. Wadley, superintendent, father
of George D.. Wadley, the latter
for many years manager of the
Central Railroad of Georgia.
The schedule shows q picture of
an engine and cars at the top. Tn.
der it the numbers and names of
the stations, the times for arrival,
the times for departure and the
time taken to run betwee stations
as well as remarks about passing
Isi etracked frcights are Ill care
gully tabulated.
In the rules for engine,nen and
Conductors are. MANY which seem
;uaint in this age OF colossal rail
sading. OF course the road had
| ay ~one track, and rule ID for
passenger conductors shows that
shere must have been some dispute
lwnen thstrains met as to which
fraI )hay the right to keep on its
WAY uninterrupted. The rule
lsays:
"As a general rule when trains
meet between stations the train
nearest the turnout will run back.
Amy dispute as to which train is to
retire is to be determined at once
Iby the conductors without inter.
ference on the part of the engine
bmen. This rule is required to be
varied In favor of the heaviest
loaded engine or worst grades If
they meet near the center"

noble primeval forests. During q
mans life only saplings can be

BOARD OF INQUIRY REPORT

The Southern Pacific board of
inquiry met his forenoon at the
freight house and inquired into the
cause of the accident yesterday in
which j. w. Hunt was killed. Sew
eral witnesses were examined and
from their evidence the board
made the following report:
This board finds that rear tender
truck OF engine 3216, Engineer F.
A. Larson, Fireman 4. @. Moulton,
was derailed while backing through
South siding, Elko, Nevada, at the
road crossing Just east of the Pas
senger Station.
Brakeman ]. w. Hunt, who was
riding on rear step of the tender,
on engineers side, fell off, was run
over and killed.
We find that wheels of rear truck
tender which ERE derailed at the
crossing, tore out switch stand just
east of crossing, causing derailment
of front tender truck and entire
engine.
1t is the opinion Of this board
that accident was caused by the
crossing not having peen properly
cleaned out, the f1angeway being
full of solidly frozen mud and, ap
parcntly, some mud on top of rail
which had been carried in during
the night while weather was mod
crate and which froze soldily early
in the morning.

pei Who were to be charged half
price when on business connected
with their calling. The same rule
indicated that the governor of the
state and general superintendent of
the road we're the only individuals
who had a right to give passes.
The conductor was ordered to in
spect the running gear of his train
at every station and in rule Is was
admonished never to leave Atlanta
or Chattanooga without the mail
or without first sending to the post
office after it. Rule II says that a
train stopping at any station at
night must invariably be run on
the turnout so as TO leave the main
track clear, and that strict watch
had to be kept in all cases where a
train stopped at night.
In the regulations for passenger
enginemen there are a number
which seem almost humorous in this
perind of railroad management.
For instance, the enHinen en- was
instructed that if his train killed a
any stock and threw the COW or
COWS in sucn position as to endsnger
the safety Of the next train he was
to stop his train and e that the
track was cleared.
Passenger trains were not to ex-
ceeu the speed of their schedule
except when behind time, in which.
case the speed might be increased
three miles an hour generally.
In passing turnouts (the turnout
evidently was the switching track
the speed had to be diminished to
six miles an hour.
Rule 6 might be put in force to.
day with good effect and to tie
delight of a much jolted travelling
public. 1t reads.
In connecting and in starting
with his train the engineman will
be exceedingly careful in the man
agement of the throttle so thai the
car may not be injured or the
passengers annoyed by the sudden
violence of the start"
"This paragraph is found at the
end of the regulations for engine
men:
"for any violation of the above
rules for running off at turnouts,
for killing Of stock by daylight
and for all other irr Sgulariti~s the
general superintendent will i'm
pose such fines as he deems just and
called for by the nature of the of
Tense.
The freight trains took two days
to make 1877 miles between Atlanta
and Chattanooga. The stops at the
stations varied from ten to sixty
minutes. One of the rules for
freight conductors about keeping
certain distance from the trans
ahead Of him and behind him shows
that there must have been a de-
lightful uncertainty about the pro-
vision for changing meeting points
in care trains yer delayed. I is
evident that there was no telegraph
communication along the line, al
though this was eight years after
Morse had demonstrated that he
could send -cessages over the wire
from Washington to Baltimore.
Several months before Charles Mi
not also had made use of the teler
