The railroad is the modern pwk-bearcr. For

Back of each railroad worker there is a $10,000
investment in tracks and trnins and terminals, with
steam nnd electricity harnessed like a great beast
of burden.
Without this friighty transportation machine
the railroad worker could do no more than the old
time packer. Hut with it he is enabled to earn the
highest railroad wages paid in the world, while the
country gains the lowest-cost transportation in the
world. " " . .'
