he is fit to bear this burden He keeps
himself in form by serupulous attention

with confidence for the maintenance of
its high standard and it's principles in this

Heater Dangers.

Several lives have been Host recently
in and near Washington through burn
ing An epidemic of carelessness seems
to prevail The use of gas stoves and
other heating expedients has become so
general during the coal shortage that
elements of danger have been intro
duced in many homes. The fact that
these heating devices are attended with
certain risks is not sufficiently impressed
upon their users. A small gas stove
standing in the middle of the room may
quickly set fire to any cloth or paper
or even wood which is placed in CON
tact with it. Even an electric heater
may cause fame if ignitable material
touches IL The greatest care must be
exercised TO insure that these supple
mentary heating appliances are safely
placed. In some of the cases of burn
ing the skirts of women have brushed
against the heaters and quickly ignitetl.

was always on some subject he was
qualified to handle. and which he did
handle to the enlightenment of all who
heard him.
He was we'll advanced in his third
term, and highly placed in committee
assignments. This gave him influence,
and his state distinction.
The new man. no matter how able or
deserving, cannot of course spring at
once into such prominence. As legis-
lator he must learn his trade-must
qualify for work in body whose work
is of great Importance. Nevertheless,
or rather for that reason, he should be
the best man available.
Mr. Newlands reached the Senate after
service of ten years in the House.
where he had gained insight into pub
lie questions and experience in legis-
lative proceedings Still, as the sue
cessor of John P Jones he had diff

able man. who had exercised great in
fiuence in the Senate and elsewhere
lie was reckoned among the leaders of
his party when its leadership included
such men as Conkling. Blaine. Sherman.
Garfield and Allison.
Taking his seat on the other side of
the chamber, Mr.. Newlands, to justify
his selection, must try TO reach the emf

on the republican side II was not an
easy task, but in time he accomplished
it. Indeed. he became stronger than the
strong man he had succeeded. He de
voted more time to his duties. He mas
tered more subjects Mr. Jones had not
been a diligcnt senator; and the silver
question had occupied nearly all of his
attention. Mr.. Newlands, on the other
hand, was very diligent, and applied
himself to several subjects in which the
west, and, through the west, the whole
country, was much interested; and he
has left the scene with his reputation
at its highest.

incentive and opportunity TO do his best

Freight Congestion Remedies.

If Director General McAdoo should, for
the purpose Of relieving the present
freight congestion, order the suspension
of all passenger traffic for one day each
week little harm would result to the
public interest. There would be, Of
course, much Inconvenience, but q very
large per cent Of the travel now en-
gagged in Is dispensable, or at least sus-
ceptible Of postponement. Much Of It
can be accommodated by interurban
electric lines. It would be possible to
stop the passenger trains for twenty
four or even forty-eight hours, upon
due notice, and cause no material dis
location Of business. In such q period
Of time vast amounts Of freight could
be moved on the clear traslrs and

quirement of the time is in the line Of
additional terminal facilities, ware
houses and local deliveries. 1t will, of
course, advantage nothing if the tracks
are freed for freight only to pile it up
more densely at the points of discharge.
Thus the problem of clearance involves
many elements. The director general Of
railroads must handle the warehousing
and delivery questions along with the
coordination of the railroad system.

Uncle Sam at the Throttle.

Concentrated railroad direction, be-
gun today by the government under the
Presidents proclamation, may be mark
ed by some extraordinary methods for
the relief of the present dangerous con-
gestion of traffic. There are several
ways to get the freight moving, Con
signees may be ordered to unload cars
within a certain period. under penalty
Of having the government turn the
goods out at the nearest warehouse.
Passenger traffic may be partly sus-
treme necessity, wholly stopped for
brief periods, to permit the full use of
tracks and power to move commodities
traffic. Routing of freight may be com
pletely altered, to avoid the eongested
areas and to reach the destinations by
dear, if roundabout, paths. Improved
terminal facilities may be provided,
with the same speed as in the construc-
ton Of the Army environments.
Presumably first attention will be
given to the moving of the governments
own traffic, troops and materials. That
Is the prime essential of this time. Coal
must be rushed for the ships now wait
ing in harbor for fuel for their VOYAGES
Nothing can be permitted to stand in
the way Of the speedy transport of our
troops to Europe. Supplies for the
forces in camp, material for the making
Of munitions and equipment for the
Army's use, goods for the maintenance
of the war administration, these are in
the first class of preferred freight. To
the end of moving them quickly and I'M
interruptedly other considerations must
be put aside
There is trackage and there is rolling
stock enough today to move all these
classes of goods and the ordinary sup
plies Of the people. What is needed is
. central direction, to cut the knots of
intercorporation misunderstanding and
complications. Director General Me
Adoo has the power to use the
railroads as whole, irrespective
Of company units. Where at a GER
tain terminal goods heretofore have had
to wait for transfer to insure correct
keeping Of car accounts they can be
pushed through by the shortest or most
convenient or the clearest routes to des-
'tination. The President has urged in
sistently upon Congress the enactment
of legislation that will guarantee the
component corporations an income equiv
alent to the average of the past three
years of earnings. Thus, on that basis.
railroad financing becomes simplifed
into matter of computation, with the
United States standing as underwater of
expenses.
Long debate on the subject of how
these financial guarantees are to be
framed will not delay the centralized.
operation of the lines, which begins to-
day under the proclamation. The stock
market may be affected by the proceed
ings Of Congress. The main thing is
the smooth and swift handling of the
traffic. The temporary closing of the
stock exchange pending the readjust-
ment would perhaps be desirable, to pre-
vent violent fluctuations, leading TO,
speculation and sacrifices and possibly
to financial panic. A moratorium"
during the period of framing the guar
anfees would not cause any real losses
and would possibly prove steadying
factor.
