All-STEEI CAR ERA AT HAND Complaint is made by the rail- roads. voiced by an official high on the roster of one of the principal systems, that the proposed Fed- eral requirement of all-steel pas- senger cars exclusively would en- tail an expenditure that it would be difficult .'or them to meet, ex- cept in the course of replacements. Bjajsed on the average cost of ' steel equipment, it is estimated that an outlay of $630,849,400 would be necessitated to substitute 46,901 all-steel cars for an equal number of wooden ones yet in use, while assuming the value of the latter to be $4,000 each, the charge to operating expense for scrap- ping them would aggregate $187,- 604,000. Two bills are under considera- by Congress at present, both look- ing to the end indicated, although neither provides for the suggested substitution immediately. One of them, the Esch bill, provides that after January 1, next, the use of any new or rebuilt passenger cars that do not conform to a standard steel frame and superstructure form to be designed by the American Railway Association and interstate commerce commission shall be inhibited, while the other, known as the Talcott bill, inhibits the operation of any passenger cars other than of steel construc- tion after 1915. The railroads themselves are re- sponsible for the present demand for all-steel passenger equipment, the Pennsylvania having introduc- ed the innovation some four years since, first presumably for adver- tising purposes, and afterward, as the value of the steel cars as con- ducing to the safety of travelers was demonstrated, as a matter of policy, and other systems are fol lowing suit. Of the 54,609 passenger coaches in service in this country Decem- ber 31, 1910, 2,927 or 5.3 per cent were of all-steel construction, and 1.481 or 2.7 per cent were equip- ped with steel underframes. The rapid rate at which such tars are being introduced is shown clearly by’ the fact that 24 per cent of the 2.000 passenger cars acquired in 1909 were of all-steel construction while 21 per cent were equipped with steel nnderframes. Of the 3.783 cars acquired in 1910, 53 per cent were all-steel and 14 per cent had steel nnderframes. Of the 4.074 cars which will be acquired during the present year, 62 per cent will be all-steel and 14 per cent will have steel nnderframes, leaving only 24 per cent of new cars of wooden construction. At the close of 19108 only 0.8 per cent of the passenger cars in service were of all-steel construction, while at the close of 1911 fully 9.3 per cent will be so built. In the same time the number of cars with steel nnderframes will have increased from 1 to 3.3 per cent, or at a much lower ratio, while the percentage of wooden cars in service will have dropped from 98.2 to 87.2 per cent.

Ihe Populist who announced that he was going to New York and would lick that feller Wall Street before he returned was not as wide of the mark as so-called “progressives” who seem to think that the street is only a group ot is almost the worst thing for consumptives. Many of the “just-as-good” preparations contain as much ae 20% of alcohol; Scott’s Emulsion not a drop. Insist on having Scott’s Emulsion FOR SALE BY ALL DRUGGISTS rich capitalists. What is Wall Street? Why has the candidate it "preferred won the Presidency in every recent elec- tion? And why is it that the man of its choice will be elected in 1912? Wall Street represents the investments of most of the provi- dent and thrifty people in this country, and that is why these things have happened and will hap- pen. The great life insurance com- panies of the United States have •28,087,327 policies outstanding. It is estimated by the president of a life insurance company that these represent 20,000.000 policyhold- ers. Thirty-eight per cent of these people’s givings is based on rail- road securities listed in Wall Street, which the companies hold as investments. Including Indus trial bonds and stocks, their sav- ings are based on Wall Street se- curities to the extent of more than one-half. Shrinkage of the values of these securities threatens their savings. In 1909 there were 9,142,708 de- positors in savings banks in the United States. Their savings are similarly secured. There are I - 300.000 stockholders in these large corporations. Bondholders in these rganizations are numerous and include many persons of small means, while nearly all the stock- holders are poor people. The banks and their employees are al- so mie ested. The solvency of manv banks depends on the values of corporate collateral. Labor gets from the big corporations the steadiest and best employment and would compete disastrously with other labor if it should lose this work. Banks are like dams which col- lect the waters o; small streams, and make them useful. They com- bine small savings into effective capital, to the benefit of deposi- tors and the country. Banks are a mark for the ire of “progres- sives,” and so are railroads, espec- ially in the west. Without the railroads there would be no west. They bring prosperity to the doors of their assailants and force it on them. In a speech at Kansas City, on May sth, Governor Woodrow Wil- son said of the “progressive” movement: “The movement is one of reform, marked by a pro- cess of restoration.” It is in truth a process of restoration of a system the world outgrew a gen- eration ago ,and which is opposed to the only system of production that is profitable, production cn a large scale. “Progress” as understood by these “progressives” is the fram- ing of laws by persons who know least about business for the regu- lation of those who know' most about it; and it involves the de- rangement of the business o T those whose money is invested by those who have nothing at stake. No wonder these meddlers with mat- ters they do not understand ob- ject to the word “reasonable” as applied to the Sherman law by the Supreme Court and are offend- ed by the court’s recourse to the “rule of reason.” The government injunction suit against the railroads in May, 1910, started everything on the down grade. It was a blow at business and savers, in the interest of the middlemen, whose already exces- sive profits are the chief cause of the high cost of living. Its result was defeat at the polls, followed by a rise in the prices of stocks. The prosperity killing has been made continuous by appoint- ing “progressives" exclusively in filling three vacancies in the Inter- state Commerce Commission. They are injuring the appointing power and the community at the same time. Their interference has paralyzed business and has made the railroads, whose welfare is at the foundation of prosperity, the only concerns whose customers virtually fix their own rates. But for these attacks on the railroads they would be employing 300,000 more men. 'Hie McKinley administration reached the low water mark in trust prosecution and the high water mark in prospertiv. The millions of corporation employees, policyholders, stockholders, bond- holders and bank depositors will elect their candidate in 1912. Thev are “Wall Street.” Big Day In Baltimore For Maryland Farmers Arrangements are rapidly pro- gressing for the “Maryland Week” exp isition to be held in the Fifth Regiment Armory December 4th- 9th under the auspices of the CECILi WHIG, ELKTON, MARYLAND, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1911E Maryland Horticultural Society, the Cereal and Forage Crop Breeders’ Association, The Mary- land State iDairymen’s Associa- tion and the Maryland Bee Keep- ers’ Association.

Already the indications are that the exhibits of all products of the farm, the dairy, etc., will far ex- ceed any before shown in Mary- land along this line. There is no- thing better than Maryland wheat and corn, its fine varieties of ap- ples, peaches, pears and other fruit, its vegetables, its dairy pro- ducts, its flowers and ornamental plants, etc. Besides the beauty and attrac- tiveness of the exhibit, it will be highly educational to the farmer, fruit growers and others. The time for holding th exposition is believed to be best suited for the country and city people to join to- gether and exchange ideas on the growing of crops and the best way to market them, and to become closer linked socially. More than $2,000 in prizes will be awarded to the farmers, fruit growers, florists, dairymen and bee-keepers of the State for best exhibits.

the candidate it "preferred won thePresidency in every recent elec-tion? And why is it that the manof its choice will be elected in1912? Wall Street represents theinvestments of most of the provi-dent and thrifty people in thiscountry, and that is why thesethings have happened and willhap-pen.
