OVERLOOKING THE OBVIOUS
(st. Louis Republic.)

Those who read the classics of American humor will remember Artemus Wards hero who had been in prison many. many years ponderng the problem of es- cape when brilliant thought struck him and-he open ed the window and got out. One of the things upon which the street railway men have expended much thought the accident problem They have spent un- millions for improved brakes and all sorts of m- proved contrapons for opening and closing doors They have spent other millions. and many of them. to fee expensive lawyers in negligent injury cases and they have been known in than case to spend still other for ury fxers in order to escape the con sequences of accidents for which they legally and morally liable But with all their ryng the cost of ac- cidents remains heavy burden the street rail- way business and constant case of antagonisms be- tween the companies and the public
 It has long been known that the principal cause of all the trouble just plain creessness upon the part of the people and the employees of the road and that being true it occurred the United Railways com pany of this city several months to ask everybody to be careful. The company has made this request in many and many places in the last three months has kept the safeyhrst ideas before the public all the while and the result of this simple inexpensive and saluary policy has been reduction of 2S per cent in the accident rate within the last six months,
 It would be possible to philosophi2e upon this re- suit at great length showing how are forever try ing to contrive machines and systems to combat evils when what is needed most change of heart or head such that they will be able the open windows that have been there all the time.
