Tho raco stalled after Ihe usual fiddling around, and In about 3 healthy Jumps tho mooring siring of tho home-made running puuls bustod, causing something lu happen that nuver happens to prices these times. Two more Jumps look him clonr out of his pants. The gawky young man had nothing on then hut a pair of tennis shoes, lie spurted, and won I ho race by 15 feet, and continued on for a hole in Ihe ball yard fence, ni.'hody hi ing able to catch his time for that part of Un contest, lie was just a while streak across the landscape.

The Ami rican people have come to place entire responsibility for t lie proper adminisl rat ion of national af fairs, domestic ami foreign, upon one man. This condition has not been forced upon the people by the presidents, it has been forced upon them by processes of political evolution. It is perfectly proper to object to one-man rule as a condition which is undesirable, but historically if is certainly ridiculous to say that since Washington it has never existed. For the last twenty vears there has been liothiu;'' else.

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 road-' bed, structures, stations, yards, terminals, 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 counting the cost of culverts, bridges, etc. , -1 Our raiiroads couldn't be duplicated today 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 efficiency . have enabled American railroads to payj f he high-,,, ; est wages while charging the lowest 'rates. ' " " " ' ; ; '-.
