THE MACON TELEGRAPH: MONDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 5, 1894
it m.
To Che Editor of the Telegraph: In
the ponvphlet you referred to Lb!
Ing I have cndeaweef to refute, by In-
tibcju.jblt authorities. nil of the claim*
tlial Pooi/IWto have mode In re,
the superiority of the govern me
road- of the world over the railroads of
America.
Ihev have claimed that travel ww
Met ar.d that rate* -were oh caper than
on American r*«roidn. They ulao
cl.tinted that the railroads were proo-
pertcit and were a source of profit
the government.
A study of the statistics of railroads
the world over shows tnat American
freight rates are the lowort ever
k "v'il'e the average wsrerutor rate Is
Mlghlly higher In America than in oomc
foreign countries, this Is due to the fact
iitii, generally speaking, about Ihtev
f.iurlht of the trrvel on fort an ra i
loii.ie It third class, and only sbuut S per
cent, lint class. This generally brings
their avenge s little lower Own the av
erage American rate, but It 1'xe hot
I’epuctnt the tiumr cnotorlt and convt
Jeiicta In travel. It Is the freight rale,
honever. that Js of the moat imoortancs

and i! ilie Aaierica!i_£gffil* iMt ie-
•vive the freight rates oi any cotintiy
on earth whore file government opera/tea

could curry nil the passenger* entirely
free of chargo. and have net earnlncu

from both freight and (xnrnatgeiw. Vj

Trevel 1* slightly safer In Europe then
In America. Thl« la not due to govern*
moot management, for In th.»re roun-
trios where the government owns Some
of the railroad* and private companies
some, the accidents are more freriuer.>t
un ithe government lines than cm the
private oner.
The re aeon why accident* nre more
frpauent In Amorim thin In Europe l>
theit'the conditions ere entirely dlffcr-
Odt. There they have a perfect aytem
of aaifety eppllancos which we only
commenced Introduchtx n few ye«r«
u:eo. Congress, however, has trw'eil a
law requiring ell roads emtHgcrt In In-
toistote commerce to provide acme of
the nf»; Omiiortant of these, before Jan.
uiry. 1KI». end tne road* have adopted
otiheiu without being required to do to.
The principal cause of the.accident')
In America 11 duo to the different rad
ioed regulations' In force, In Europe
there In it watenmam nt *very imMln
load crowing, and no person Is alloyed
to walk on the track. .Morn than half
of the onmonn that wore killed on the
rattnonds of America, lark year were tern-
Phaser*.
In Europe, puiaamrem nfe locked up
in the care, and there Is no «landing on
the platform* or passing from car to-
car on ordinary train*. A man Jumping
on or off a car In motion In liable to line
md Imprisonment.
An.tlii r cause of fsitaUtkn In the Til'll-
C'i Ktifte* is ihe car stove. In ft. w"e/k.
K the move I* upset, the ear generally
citchon Are and the tom of life la great-
ly increased. In Europe, gem-rally, tho
can* are not heated, only a can of hot
Witor awing dacnl under tho feet. In
oold Weather the American tnvelem
would prefer tho vvnnm enr with the
d<«dly car stovo to the eol.hcnr ond a
somewhat greitcr degree of safety.
From a financial standpoint govern-
ment management Is a dismal failure
the world over.
In Canada slid South 'America while
(he private roads are very prosperous
•those managed by the government,
taken all together, do not make their
operating expenses.
In Australia the -people havo to pay
n freight Mto about three nnd a half
jtlmea n* large as that of America, and
then have to be taxed In order to pay
five nr six millions of dollars of de*
dolt on the Interest on their railroad
bmjds.
In India tho freight rate Is higher
than hero, but the made do uot pay
expenses and fixed charges nnd tho
people bnve to he taxed to make up
the deflojt. The same Is Iruo'of every
country In Europe whore tho govern
ment operates the rends, with the ox-
eeotlon of Itelglum. The Belgian gov
ernment roads lost money- regularly,
while they had to compete with pri
vate lines, so s few years ng« iho gov.
ornment bought tho most Important
private lines and raised the rales
higher than they were IWty -years sgo,
ri.thni the railroad deixirlment could
show a surplun Instead of « deficit.
The Prussian railroads ohatv a surplus,
evidently fictitious. '
To sum up. then, government rail-
roads the world over charge higher
rales (han American, nnd still the
people have fo he taxed to keep them
running. We cannot assume that our
government could manage Hum hotter
thnn the European governments do, for
I have shown thnt our postal service
nod our ronsiruetlon of government
buildings compares very unfavorably
with- I helm.
Government ownershln of rstlrnvls

Populist platform. Do not these fads,
which cannot be controverted, surprise

Declare that the assortment of Suits, as it now stands,
could not be replaced by us at an advance of 25 per
cent, on our costs. But prices are based on what we
PAID, not on what we MIGHT pay, or “on what the
traffic will bear.”
Not a popular material missing, not a favorite
shape lacking; and whether high-priced or low-priced
or betwixt and between, the style is right.
It has been a revelation to many Macon men to
see how perfectly these Suits are finished—like cus

"Some men /ire bom great,
greatness. sn4 some have geestnest thrust
upon them." This might have been true when
sdvancemejit came through the favor of
Kings and Queen*, But in this American
republic and in this nlhteenth century there Is
but one way for at man to become great. H* '
must achieve greatness, and no man can
achieve greatness without education.
W)th education the poorest boy may become
the greatest man, though we can not all be
president. The moft Important question Is:
Would we be prepared to perform the duties of
•.great office if It werO.thrust upon us? W*
probably would If we should do as
One Great President
did. Ho Is said to have, as his constant
companion, the Encyclopaedia Britannlca.
He Is even said to have kept a set In his
~ private car while making a campaign tour.
This mark of diligence and intelligence made
him many friends and admirers.
There Isa great principle Involved In this
^|ea. If you look up just one question each
day you will soon become an educated
person, and you learn to er.joy It.
These questions should be investigated
sight when they come up. while your mind Is
curious; then you won’t forget what you read—
you can’t If you try.
But to do this you need the Encyclopaedia
B r ltannlca. and The Atlanfa Constitution
