the accepted distance from the earth
to the moon. We had in 1911, the
last year in which lgures for all
countries are available, on the
earth's surface, 639,9S1 miles of rail-
way divided as follows: United States
241, 1879, Europe 2O7,432 and other
countries 1880. The United States
has 9S per cent of the worlds mileage,
s . en- per cent of the estimated pop
ulation and about five per cent of the
area. The total capital invested in the
railways of the world is 5000, 000,-
600, divided as follows: United States
$1S,000 0 10000 Europe S25, $50. 100000
and other countries $11,3 900, 900.
Reduced to a mileage basis the cap
italization is as follows: The world
$4,000, United States $4,000, Europe
$124,000, and other countries $50. 900.
A comparison Of rates is equally as
interesting and the United States
takes the lead in economy and serv-
ice. The average rate per ton per
hundred mile haul is as follows:
United States 76c, Great Britain $3.50,
France $1.44, Germany $1.44, Russia
92c, Austria Hungary $1.SO. Italy $3.50

KNOW THY COUNTRY


Know America" is a slogan that
should ring out from every school
room, Office, farm and shop in this ma.
ton. No man can aspire to a higher
honor than to become a capable citi.
zen, and no one can merit so dis
tinguished a title until he is well in
formed Of the resources, possibilities
and achievements of our country.
This is a commercial age and civ
ilization is bearing its most golden
fruit in America. We are noted for
our Industrial achievements as Egypt
was noted for her pyramids; Jerusa.
lem for her religion; Greece for her
art; Phoenicia for her fleets; Chaldea
for her astronomy and Rome for her
laws. Likewise we have men who will

erful products of their age. For, stand.
ing at the source of every gigantic
movement that sways civilization is a
great man. The greatest minds travel
in the greatest direction and the com
mercial geniuses of this age would
have been the s%culptors, poets, phil
osophers, architects, and artists of
earlier civilizations.
As Michael Angelo took a rock and
with a chisel hewed 1t into the image
of an angel that ever beckons man
kind upward and onward, Hill took
the desert Of the Northwest and with
bands of steel made it blossom like a
rose, dotted the valleys with happy
homes and built cities in waste places.

III--Teleerdph and Telephone

Our transportation facilities are the
most perfect product of this great COM
mercial age and the telegraph and tel
ephone systems of this nation crown
the industrial achievements OF the
whole world. These twin messengers
Of modern civilization, born in the
skies, stand today the most faithful and
efficient public servants that ever
toiled for the human race.
They are Of American nativity and
while warm from the mind Of the in
ventive genius have, under American
supervision, spun a network Of wires
across the earth and under the seas.
Telegraphy, in its early youth, mas.
tered the known world and the tele-
phone has already conquered the
earth's surface, and now stands at the
seashore ready to leap across the
ocean.
No industry in the history Of the
world has ever made such rapid strides
in development and usefulness, and
none has ever exerted a more powerful
influence upon the civilization OF its
day than the Telegraph and Telephone.
Their achievement demonstrates the
supremacy Of two distinct types of
American genius-invention and organ.

when compared with its European con
temporaries, it thrills every patriotic
American with pride.

The Lexington intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1901-1949, 1915-05-21

In discussing the commercial
achievements of this great age, we
shall approach the subject as She
historian chronicling events. This Sc
ries will endeavor to record in writ.
ing the supremacy of American men
and industries in the worlds affairs
and perptuate an appreciation of our
marvellous industrial achievements by
presenting simple facts, figures and
comparisons that are oyerpowering in
their convictions.
America holds her proud place
among the nations of the earth today
on account Of her supremacy in trans
portation facilities, The mighty minds
Of the age are engaged in the prob
lens of transportation, and the great
est men in the history Of the worlds
commerce are at the head of the
transportation systems of the United
States.
In the discussion of transportation,
let us consider separately our Rail-
ways, Telegraph and Telephones, Elk
press, Public Highways, Steamships,
Street Railways, %Interurban and other
forms of transportation, and this ar
ticle will deal with railways.
The United States has the largest
mileage, the best service, the cheap
est rates, pays labor the highest
wages, and we have the most efficient
ly managed Of the railways Of the
world. They stand as a monument to
the native genius of u marvellous
builders, and most Of the railroads in
foreign countries have been built
under American orders.
The railroads represent a larger in
vestment Of capital than any other
branch OF human activity. The mile
age in the United States exceeds

a bar Of iron and bent it into
a reaper and with one sweep Of
his magic mind broke the shackles
that enslaved labor of generations yet
unborn, and gave mankind freedom
from drudgery, n lifted the human
race into a higher zone of life.
AS Nelson organized the English navy
and made England mistress Of the sea,
enabling the British Isles to plant her
flag upon every continent washed by
the oceans waves, and to make foot
stools of the Islands of every water,
Morgan organized a banking system
that has made America master of the
worlds finances. brought Kings to our
cashiers windows, the nations Of the
earth to our discount desks and placed
under the industries of this nation a
financial system as solid as the Rock
of Gibraltar.
There is no study quite so interest
ing as progress; no sound so magic
as the oar of industry and no sight
so inspiring as civilization in action.
A full realization of Americas part in
the great events Of the world past,
present and future will thrill every
human heart with pride, patriotism
and faith in Republican institutions.
Through the courtesy Of the Agri-
cultural and Commercial Press Ser
vice, the readers of this paper will be
permitted to study America; her ag-
ricultural, manufacturing and min
eral development, mercantile, bank
ing and transportation systems when
are the wonder of the world. The
first article of the series will deal
with transportation and will appear
at an early date.
