safelv millions of dollars are boino-
spent. Thousands of appliances are being installed. Strict
lcguiauons are being eniorced. Kvvry where protection
for tho public is the conl rolling feature of construction.
Nowhere is the safely first idea being enforced mpre
than in tho cons! ruction of traffic routes whether rail or
highway. And (his is so because it is realized that loss of
lile is easily avoidable if proper construction obtains. Hun
dreds of persons have been killed annually as a result q
trying saving a few dollars in construction.
The most fatalities on liiihwavs are ciiised hv iviilrmwl
grade crossings. As a consequence the rail crossing is
being abandoned on all modern highways. The necessity
for this is recognized in nearly all states by laws forbid
ding the establishment of such a crossing. This is the case
in Oregon, where a new rail crossing cannot be established
without consent of the state railroad commission, which is
not forthcoming for traveled routes. Unfortunately the
law does not regulate crossings already established.
That the railroads recognize the danger of grade cross
ings is shown by their co-operation in establishing over
head or subway crossings, the railroad willingly paying
nun me cose eniaiieu tnercny.
J lie slate highway commission recognized the need of
eliminating the grade crossings at its first organization by
passing a resolution withholding state aid from highways
with them. In pursuance of this nolicv. the viaducts wern
built in the Siskiyou division at a cost of nearly $10,000 to
avoid dangerous rail crossings.
The Siskiyou highway will have comparatively little
travel compared to the highway in the heart of the valley.
The need of avoiding a grade crossing held up the construc
tion of the highway at the Billings hill. So it is with sur-
itiini,. .(, ,... ...... .....i i I . .. 1 J 1 . j t Jt i
im-imi- ujiu iuiuiwiiipiii inui uio aci, oi me county commis
sioners, establishing, over the protest of the coiintv iiuiiro
and state highway engineer, two needless grade crossings
in three miles of highway between Central Point and
Seven Oaks is received.
The establishment of these crossings lengthens tho
highway half a mile. The. route selected includes seven
right angles, besides running alongside the dangerous
open channel oi .Jackson creek. It cannot be called in any
sense a "safety first" route.
The Mail Tribune, in calling attention to this subject,
has no interests to serve but the public's and the public
interest demands the shortest, safest and cheapest route
which is not the route selected.
It is respectfully suggested that (he county commis
sioners rescind their order aiid adopt a safe route.

nplIM resignation of AVilliam .1. Bryan as secretary of
J- state at a critical moment in the nation's historv is
hailed with regret by supporters of the administration, and
with jubilation by its opponents. It is the result of an
honest difference of opinion, for in his ideals and opinions
Hryan is as inflexible as tho president.
Uryan, as the author of nearly thirty peace treaties
with the principal nations of the world, stands forth as the
world's foremost peace advocate. IAr years he has de
voted himself to forwarding the iuferests'of peace, and his
accomplishments for peace remain his crownimr achieve
ment. It is not surprising that rather than sign his name
to a document that is likely to involve the nation in war,
he resigned office.
For twenty years Bryan has been the target for par
tisan ridicule and abuse, such as has not been slmwered
upon any American m this generation. In advance of his
tune, he has lived to see many of the measures he was de
nounced for advocating, the accepted law of the land. Old
enmities followed him into (he cabinet, and there has never
been a moment's let-up in his persecution by the pluto
cratic press, which has never given him a square deal. In
tellectual Lilliputians cannot be expected to jet the meas
ure of a real man.
Bryan's course is logical and consistent. The man who
dared to defy plutocracy thrice in campaigns for the presi
dency and who again threw down the gauntlet in the Bal
timore convention and forced the nomination of YVoodrow
Wilson and thereby reaped plutocracy's bitter resentment,
the man who has alwavs been firm for the right, as it was
given him to see the right, is not the man to sanction acts
he believes wrong.
Bryan's influence has always been for humanity and
for better things. This is a better nation and a better
world for his having lived. Of how many of our states
men can the same be said? The loss of such a man will
weaken the cabinet, I hough it may strengthen the admin
istration in the nation, as much of the unreasoning par
tisiin prejudice aroused by the mere presence of Bryan
will be dissipated.
(By Jiluli iMcClonc (lilmon.)

in the twilight of n wonderful Kpriiu:
afternoon in the bountiful drawing
room of the beloved prima donna
.Madame Seliuinnitn-lMiik, on Mich
igan avenue.
The divn, who hud loxt ulmnM nil

Tin1 next moment her eyes tlnnoed

conversation tinned to hrend-umk-iiur.
And her children! Kilit of

"So you are jtoinir to utile what

She hoiM'lf is nil heart -tit won-

It did not take me us long to eomo
