When the talk turns from politics to railroads,
and the traveler with the cocksure air breaks
in with, "There's an awful lot of 'water' in
the railroads," here are some hard-pan facts
to give him:
American railroads have cost $80,900 a mile
roadbed, structures, stations, yards, termin
als, freight and passenger trains everything
from the great city terminals to the last spike.
A good concrete-and-asphalt highway costs
$36,000 a mile just a bare road, not count
ing the cost of culverts, bridges, etc.
Our railroads couldn't bo duplicated to
day for $150,000 a mile.
They are capitalized for only $71,000 a mile
much less than their actual value. Seventy-one
thousand dollars today will buy one locomotive.
English railways are capitalized at $274,000 a
mile; the French at $155,000; German $132,000;
' even in Canada (still in pioneer development)
they are capitalized at $67,000 a mile. The
average for all foreign 'countries is $100,000.
Low capitalization and high operating effici
ency have enabled American Railroads to pay
the highest wages while charging the lowest
rates.

KupervlHor llarphnm returned a
few day ago from Baker, after an ab
aetice of a week, where he attended a
Joint meeting of Oregon, Waahington
and Idaho Koreat Hupervlaora. This
waa the firnt meeting of "eaat aide"
aupcrvlaora ever held In the north
west, that la, aupcrvlaora In charge of
the territory easterly from the Cas
cade summit. It waa felt by the For
est Service that problems within the
territory represented were so decid
edly different from those westerly
from the Cascades that the meeting
aa fully justified. The principle sub
jects of discussion were along the
line of correlation of fire protective
plans between the different Forests
rather disregarding division lines be
tween such forests, and Improved
methods of handling stock on the for
et range.
As a token of the spirit In which
the foresters were received at Baker,
the following letter has been receiv
ed by Supervisor llarnham from the
linker Commercial Club.
"We wunt to express to you our ap
preciation, speaking for the people of
linker, for your attendance at the
meetings held by the Foreot officials
of Washington, Oregon and Idaho,
who met here last month. It was a
keen pleasure to have you with us, '
even If it was for only a few days, !
and we sincerely hope that your stay j
here and the meetings held are en
joyable and profitable.
"If you got half as much out of
thn meetings as we people In linker
did, you were well paid for the time,
spent here.
"Our national forests are one of
our lurgest asseta and we want to
work with you In increaslong the ef
ficiency of the Forest Service. We
sincerely hope that at some not too
distant date we may again have the
pleasure of meeting and entertaining
your association in Baker and hope
that at any time your business calls
you this way you will drop In and see
us so that we may become better ac
quainted and develop a greater mut
ual Interest in the work in which you I
are engaged."
