His ef- | forts are set at naught, and the utmost of his | endeavors are to find shelter from the fury of the storm. The mighty forces involved are part of the universal mechanism, set in motion by the operation of laws on which all being hangs Bt the blizzard lacks the majesty of the sum- mer storm, and holds little of the tornado’s ter- ror. It has no accompaniment of forked light- | ning, tearing a midnight sky with jagged gashes of flame, and no peal of thunder cracks the dome ot heaven to shatter timid nerves. The splendor | of the blizzard ix little appreciated by its be- holders, who have slight inclination for.seek ing out beauty while sustaining the buffets of | the roaring wind. Yet 'the blizzard is not with | out fts uses In the wake of the wind comes the promise of clearer, brighter winter weather, with service | ty the soil that presages another season of boun- | tiful crops. No widespread suffering is entailed, for man knows and makes provision against the blast, while good will eventually come from winter's worst exhibition of elemental energy uncontrolled Newlands on His Party's Blunders. Senator Newlands of Nevada has just held the mirror up to the democratic donkey, to let the beast see just how long his ears have grown took office. No repub lican opponent of the administration has so mer since President Wilson cilessly dissected Mr. Wilson's policies, or the | effect of the democrats at reformatory legisla- tion. Senator Newlands carefully and keenly criticizes every act of his party in power, its ad- | ministrative incompetence, its legislative blun- ders and its general and total failure to redeem its promises That the party was not swept from power at the election in 1914 he ascribes to the fortuitous advent of the European war. The Underwood tariff bill did not, according to the senator, accomplish the reforms sought. but brought with it disaster and distrust, “‘the result not of a malicious effort of the manufac turers to teach the country a lesson, but of the that was a natural se- | quence of the adoption of the democratic idea of free trade and its enactment into law. Bank- ing legislation had even worse effects. Instead of being non-partisan, it is partisan, the reserve board Is tied to a department and under its con- trol, excess capital was exacted from the mem- ber banks, and the reserve associations are or ganized into profit-making institutions, some- (hing entirely foreign to the original purpose of the bill, Additional législation must be had to make the law meet the requirements, Other fallures of the party’s program were nator, whose disclosures of the adminstration’s shortcomings is especially important just now, when the leaders of the party are trying to divert attention from their mistakes by the ancient subterfuge of gelting the people interested in something else just before election. The democrats will be tried on their record, which is bad. Applause for Everything. The sympathetie chronicle of the democratic love-feast in the local democratic organ is headed ““State Democrats Loudly Acclaim Leaders ot Party,” and this assertion is borne out by all accounts of the great event, the acclaim being generously bestowed on both sides of every is- sue and on diametrically opposed statesmen. Applause for the president's preparedness program and applause for the Bryanite anti-pre- paredness campaign. Applause for the candidate projected by the wets and applause for the ultimatum that none but dry candidates will be acceptable | Applause for the democratic national admin- istration and appiause for members of the dele- | gation in congress who have been bolting cau- cuses and fighting administration measures in order to enforce larger patronage demands, Applause for the governor who solemnly promised to quit with one term and applause for the suggestion that he run again now for a thirc term. Applause is always on tap without limit at a democratic love-feast and nothing can be tpo in- congruous with the last thing applauded to fail to get its hand too. England’s Commercial Instinet.

Railroad men ad- mit that this depression taught the raflroads how to save in expenses as no other perfod of depression ever did. James J. Hill had demonstrated the trite principle that railroads could save money if they fn- creased the load carried by each train between any two or more points. Experimentation in train load ing was taken up all over the continent. In the fiscal year that ended June 3, 1915, earnings of railronds of the United States were $163,000,000 less than in 194 The reports showed, however, that the operating ex- penses were cut by $185,000000, so that the books mc- tually showed an Increase in net returns. According to the Rallway Age Gazette, a little over half of this transportation expenses, which were A cut in that class of ex- penses represented the real test of efficlency and represented a real saving. The Gasette presents the results of train loading on thirty-five different rail- ronds as practiced in the fiscal year ended June 0 Out of these thirty-five roads, including the biggest the country, twenty-elght showed In reduced 9 cents a mile systems in creases in their tonnage per freight train, as com- pared with the fiscal year of 1914 According to these statistics the average tons per train carried on these thirty-five roads was 4, com- This is an increase of twenty- two tons for each train. The most remarkable fea- ture of this showing was that the increase per train was accomplished in a year when most roads had de- cresses in freight traffic, and when, consequently, | the difficulty of Increasing trainloads was especially | great. The good results attained meant that a greater | tonnage was handled without a proportionate increase | in the number of trains. That was the acme of suc- | cess for the raliroad efficiency engineer In 188( the train was 179.8 it was 451.8 tops average number of tons freight In 1904 it was 308.8 tons. And in 1914 a gain in twenty years of 152 per cent. Judging by the records of the thirty-five rail- roads In 1915, the Increase to date has been even greater. In 1894 the rallroads of the United States hauled $0,3%5,000,000 tons of freight one mile and in 1914 & total of 88,319,000,00 tons one mile. This is an increase of %9 per cent; but it was handled with only 42 per cent more train-miles. The 1914 ton-mileage also represents an increase of 65 per cent over that of 1904, which was 174,522,000, but it required an increase of only 125 per cent in train-miles. Tn other words, to have handled the traffic of 1914 with the aver train of 1804 would have required running 1,600,000,000 traln-miles instead of 638,000,000, The saving, 92,000,000 train-miles, is 160 per cent of the train-miles actually run in 1914. The average cost of operation per train- mile for all trains, as shown by the Interstate Com- merce commission reports, was $1.31 in 1904 and $1.77 The cost per train-mile in freight service is considerably higher than the average for both freight and pessenger service. While it Is impossible to state exactly the average cost of operation for a freight train mile, it is evident that a saving of 92,000,000 train-miles means a saving of hundreds of millions of dollars annually in operating expenses. per When compared with this actual accomplishment, Louls D. Brandels' “sclentific management’’ schemes for saving the railroads $1,000000 a day pale into in- significance. Even the average loading of 307.8 tons in 194 would have required running 935,000,000 train. miles in 1914, instead of the 638,000,000 actually rum, so that the saving as compared with ten years before was 98000000 train-miles. This was accomplished both by using larger cars, by loading more tons of freight into a car and by using more cars per train. The average number of loaded cars per train was Increased from 17.4 in 1904 to 21.4 In 1914, while the average number of tons per loaded car was increasel from 17.7 to 21.1. The amount of the increase in tons per train from 1904 to 1914 alone is greater than the total average tons per train for the rallways in most other countries, Outside of Cahada and Mexico, Ger- many is the only country in the world whose railways come anywhere near ours in train loading. The fig- ures for some of the principal countries for 1912 are as follows: Canada, 32.3; Germany, 240.4; Mexico, 224.1; India, 184.4; Austria, 180.5; Roumania, 143, France, 141.7: Holland, 137.1; Switzerland, 132.5; Japan, 110.7: South Australia, Twice Told Tales i Cheering Him Up. | A professional boxer was badly beaten in a sparring match, and carried to his bed In an exhausted and melancholy condition { “1 wish you'd say something to cheer him wup, | doctor,” pleaded the defeated warrior's wife. “'He's gettin' low in his mind, and when he's like that you've | no idea how hard it s to wait on him.

Enters a Dissent. HAMPTON, Neb, Jan. 12.-To the Editor of The Bee: What gets my goat is why so many Germans and German sympathizers stay in America if they think so much of the German cause? Why don't they go over there and get some of the sure-cure hardships which would stop their knocking? If Mr. Arp were in Germany and would say such things in the public press against the kaiser he would be sent to prison. The kaiser evidently did not realize he had so many enemies at the beginning of this greatest of world's wars, and the greater part of the world is against Ger- many and while it s trespassing on other nations’ soil they all are fighting for n enemy of the seven nations against it being on its soil.
