A FRIEND OF THE RAILROADS—AND WHY.
There is a growing concern m many quarters
over the inroads made by bus lines in railroad busi-
ness. Nearly every state is busy with proposed legis-
lation seeking to regulate bus traffic. Many friends
of railroads are of the opinion that bus lines are
given unfair advantages in such matters as taxation
and privileges to use public highways.
An interesting article on the subject and one
which is being distributed throughout the United
States, with considerable comment, was an editorial
by Everett A. Place recently ia the Dexter, Iowa,
Sentinel. -
“The railroads have contributed more to the
development of this nation than all other enter-
prises combined. The railroads have invested more
in eapital stock, in materials of one sort and an-
other, in labor of all classifications and in tangible,
permanent improvements than any other business
in the nation,” says Mr. Place.
"The railroads have revealed the most Intense
faith in the future of the country, end instead
of setting up programs of retrenchment whoa times
were slew or hard, they have extended old lines,
built new terminals, laid new steel, employed more
labor, and developed more resources.
"It is true that ia the old days the railroads
asked concersions of the communities through which
they passed. But'tbe concessions granted yesterday
have been paid for a thousand-fold. The railroads
for that."
"Sure you are, don’t let your op-
portunity allp, Jerry. No matter what
you’re after in lite. It wil be ensier
to reach from one step m.”
Jerry sighed. Maybe Evelyn was
right, she thought. She was sure
that Alester had changed toward her
sinee she'd diacarded her shopgirl
Evelyn told her when Jerry spoke
; of it. ~r ’

I'm friendly toward the railroad, because they
are the moot cordial and aympathetie co-operators
in the community building enterpFise. They help ue
maintain our achools, they help us maintain our
streets, they pay largely toward laying water and
•ewer mains, they keep their own poperty in the
best possible physical condition and they stand ready
to meet every community fairly on the subjeet of
community welfare. They maintain a goodly payroll
in every community they nerve, and they pay their
bills promptly and without boggling. I certainly like
these railroad boys, and I think we'd all be better
off if we pwdsevered to plan oar business ventures
on systems similar to theirs. •
"I like them because they are not a bunch of
lily-handed, never-zweats. ' They toll at their jobs.
They'll transport anything from there to here and
vice versa. They don't make a fuss if the freight
“is dirty and smelly. They don't holler If it is heavy
and herd to handle. They don't complain if it is
shipped either local or carload. They'll give me the
same consideration for a hundred-pound box as for a
hundred tons. They are a democratic outfit of folk,
those railroaders-they play no favorites.
"I'm for them. And as long as I'm in my right
mind I'm going to give them all the support I ean.
I'm thinking what a heck of a fix we'd all be in if
the railroad decided to quit business and let the bus

"The railroads made possible the wide educa-
tion of all the people. Without the transportation
facilities of the railroads we would be etill limited
to the weekly newspaper and tk* old-fashioned
magazine. There could be no wide distribution of
the daily newspapers, and the intimate interchange
of business would still be an idea, did not the trans-
portation systems of the railroads eliminate East
and West and North and South
"The service of the railrods has ’gone on so
quietly and certainly and efficiently that the people
have come to take it all as a matter of course. I
have heard preachers give thanks in their prayers
for presidents, and governors, and newspapers, and
armies, and navies and rains, and sunshine, and a
lot of other things, including crops and hogs and
cattle and prosperity. But up to this time I've never
heard a clergyman raise his voice to heaven and lead
bio people into s prayer of thanksgiving for the
railroads.
"Rather, the people bave had quite the contrary
attitude toward the railroads. No other enterprise
in the nation has been blamed for as many woes as
have the railroads, and political wrath has never
been vented more cruelly than upon the railroads.
But in spite of it all, the railroads kept going
straight ahead, keeping the faith, giving the very
best service, and dealing kindly and generously with
the public.
The railroads have given the most generous sup-
port to agriculture. If I had my way now I'd turn
the problem of the farmer over to a group of rail-
road men and it would be a safe bet that the
problem would be solved. The railroads have spread
the gospel of better livestock, of diversified farm-
ing. of better tillage, of dairying and poultry breed-
ing. of better homes and communities, and of
public health. They have co-operated In Bringing

LOCOMOTOR ATAXIA
Locomotor ataxia is the popular
name for a group of disoaoes of the
spinal cord, usually moaning tabes
dorsalis er posterior spiaal solerosis,
a chronic disease of the spinal eord
caused by hardening or degeneration
ef Ito posterior tracta.
The cause of locomotor ataxia is
considered by most authorities to be
aa infection by the spirochaeta
pallida, although some investigators
have suggested that the present day
method of saturating the blood with
mercery is in some cases the real
cause of the degeneration of the
spinal cord.
The first symptoms ere short
etabbing neuralgia-like pains dart-
ing from place to place in the ex-
tremities and lower beck, although
they may occur in any part of the
body. These pains may be ac-
companied by a hot burning sensation
and severe pain from pressure,
numbnesgof the feet, tingling, some-
times a sense of constriction ebon the
waist, end a loss of the knee jerk re-
flex.
As the disease progresses there are
pronounced disorders of the bladder,
falling vision—sometimes leading to
blindness difficulty in walking, se-
vere gatrie attacks, tho Argyle-
Robertson pupils, and occasionally
paralysis of the eyelids.
As the discuss becomes mors pro-
gressed, the patient dgvelops dif-
ficulty or inability to stand or walk
with the eyes closed. While the
difficult gait io usually the most
pronounced symptom, Ihors are a
few cases where this difficulty does
not appear at any time, but in these
cases destruction of the optic nerve
(blindness) practically always results.
Locomotor ataxia is slow in de-
veloping and rarely reusea death.
Six or eight years may intervene
from its inception before walking be-
comes very difficult, and even after
being confined hopelessly to bed the
patient may live for from fifteen to
twenty yearn;
Tabes in children sometimes oc-
curs as the result of congenital
disease. There may be general
symptoms as with tabes of adults,
but as a rule the sight is most fre-
quently affected.
Since the cause of this disease op-
pesrs to be a hardening of the
posterior columns of the spinal cord
from some virulent toxin having a
special affinity . for those delicate
nerve structures, a cure should aim
at the removal of these toxins from
the body. The earlier a cure is at-
tempted, the better the chances of

seems necessary to eliminate the
medicinal poisons before the body
Is able to throw off the toxins re-
