TRAFFIC INCREASE
TREBLED SINCE 1888
Greater Efficiency Enabled Rail
roads to Meet Country's
Growing Demands.

The American railroads are more
world The traffic hauled on the rail-
ways of the United States is now three
times as great as it was twenty years
ago. In four months now the railroads
carry as much freight and as many
passengers as they did then in year.
IL the three months alone of the har-
vest movement in 1919 the traffic equal
ed that of the whole year of 1898
In 1898 freight ton miles carried by
the railroads of the country were more
than 1O0,OO0,O 100000 a year. In 1910
they were more than 250,000,000, ,00Q
in 1913 more than 100000, 100000 and
in 1918 more than 100000, 600 AL
though the railway mileage increased
only about 50 per cent since 1890, i'm
provements in tracks, terminals, equip
ment, etc, have been so marked that
the volume of goods carried measured
in the number of freight tons carried
one mile) increased more than five
times from 1890 to 1917.
Increased Efficiency.
Taking account of both freight and
passenger service, the railroads in 1900
hauled 10000 traffic units (freight
tons carried one mile, plus passengers
carried one mile) for each railway en-
pIoyee. BY 1917, the last year of pri-
vate operation of the railroads prior to
;w+ 81
war, that 10000 had been increased
to $4,000.
The following table shows the in
crease in efficiency of American rail-
roads since 1900, which enabled the
railroads to keep pace with the growth
Of the country:
Ton miles increased. ..... 1907
Passenger miles increased. 1909
Trackage increased ...... $500
Cars and engine increased. 1870
Workers increased .... $3.50
Output per worker increased 6O9e
Average train load increased 1900
These figures show that the traffic
hauled by the railroads Of the country
has increased more than three times
as fast as the trackage, more than
twice as fast as the equipment and
more than twice as fast as the number
Of workers. Thisshas been made pos
sible by far-sighted investment of new
capital TO increase the efficiency of the
transportation facilities and thereby
enable the railroads TO increase the
amount of traffic handled and reduce
the amount of labor required to handle
it.

JUDGE SMITH SUMS UP

Editor Star: There is just one
thing more that | have to say and l
intended to say it in my last letter,
but forgot it.
To those gentlemen who appeared
before the board of county commits
sioners a short while ago | have to
say that am sorry if they have mis-
understood me and | never intended
to leave any such impression.
AS | remember what was done and
said and certainly what | intended IS
this: After the meeting was about
over, Mr.. Will T. Gary came to my Of
flee and invited me to attend this
meeting. AS | entered the room some
one asked Mr.. Jake Gerig to state
again what he had just stated in ref
erence to Jail sentences. He did so,
and in reply to Mr.. Gerig stated
that it had been my policy in the past
as the criminal docket would show. to
impose such sentences, and that | had
in the past in almost all cases imposed
such sentences and would in the fu-
ture continue to pursue this policy.
| know about as much about the
liquor evil as any man and prescribed
Jail sentences as cure long before
the Star seems to have thought about
it.
The only effect the criticism of the
Star could have on me if any would
be to make me say that would never
impose another such sentence, but |
am not a revengeful, spiteful man
and the people of Marion county have
been too good to me for me to betray
them to do spite work to you. So
say now, as have said before, that /
shall continue to do what l think is
right, not on account of the Star, but
regardless of what the Star may say
This is all / shall have to say, gen.
tlemen. Very respectfully,
w. E. Smith.
There is but one exception we have
to Judge Smiths ruling in the above
case. That is that if he will come to
the Star office and look over it's files
he will see that it advocated Jail SEN
tences for illicit liquor selling, and
other troubles caused by liquor, fol
some years before he cast his first
vote.
