KEPT RAILROAD BUS
Special Report Out on the Traffic to
New London,

The New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad company has &C
quired a unique reputation for hand
ling large crowds within a short space
of to Last fall, on the day of
the ale-Harvard football game the
road performed the prodigious feat of
transporting 33,37S persons to New
Haven within a period of four hours.
Within a period of three hours, on
November goth, the New Haven ter
minal was called upon to handle and
put away a passenger train every 8
minutes and seconds.
While the Yale-Harvard boat races
do not present such tremendous trans
portation problems as the football
games do, yet a large extra traffic on
such occasions requires careful prep
arations and peculiar traffic arrange
ments in order to provide proper and
satisfactory facilities for the thousands
Of witnesses to this annual event.
The general auditor of the New Ha-
ven railroad has issued a special re-
port on the extra traffic incident to the
last Yale Harvard boat race, held on
June 25th, at New London. This re-
port shows that the two New Haven
specials, the New York special, the
| Boston special and the two Harvard
| club specials carried 1.444 full fare
passengers to the boat races and re-
turned with 1,419 full fare passengers
There were 2,522 seats sold on the
observation trains for the university
race

Barriers Didn't Show Up.

The state BARRIERS commission
were a surprised body of officials in
the capitol Monday, when they found
that out of the twenty-four persons
who had made application to be
allowed to make the examination only
twelve had put in an appearance.
Each application was accompanied
by SIS and the members of the COM
mission thought it strange that so
per cent. of the applicants should
fail to put in an appearance after
they had paid for the privilege of ex-
animation One of the members
said he was at a loss to explain the
absence of the applicants and said
the incident was without precedent
Were most of them Italians ??
asked a visitor to the room where
the examination of the candidates
who attended was in progress.
Yes, I guess they were all Ital-
ians,'' replied ne Of the commits
sionerS.
Perhaps the absences have re-
turned to Italy to fight the Austri-
ans" suggested the visitor.
That seems likely, doesn't it?'
was the officials comment.

In commenting upon Joe
Peterson's acquittal in the

concludes a strong editorial:
1t was a splendid testimon-
ial to him that in the social
ed trial his innocence was
clearly established by the
testimony of the witnesses
put on stand by the state to
make the case against him.
1t was not necessary to put
on the stand a single witness
for the defense; it was not
necessary to make a state
ment of any kind to the jury;
and the jury, with one ballot,
and as quickly as it could be
done properly, returned its
verdict Of acquittal. It is

The Nampa Leader Herald
thinks there is a possibility Of
there being two democratic
tickets in the field next year
one headed by Wilson and the
other one by Bryan. We can
hardly believe that Bryan will
play "the Roosevelt act" in
the democratic party, altho
there is no telling what men
will do when they take on an
over supply of egotism and
political ambition. Just now
we can't think of any state
Bryan would carry next year,
running as independent. We
don't believe he could even
"break into" the solid south.
In fact, aside from that sec
ton, we don't know of state
that Wilson will have a cinch
on, even though there should
be but one democratic ticket
in the field.

A statistician who bases his
estimate on the different kinds
of motor cars and the differ
ent regions in which they are
used thinks that the average
consumption Of gasoline to
the car is 583 gallons a year.
In 1914 there were 1,8O8, AL
cars in the United States,
which is 68O,5O1 more than
there was the year before.
If the number continues to
increase at the same rate,
there will be more than 400
600 cars in 1915. They will
need some 1899, 200, 600 gal
Ions of gasoline.
