The Tear for the Eailroads.
The railroad of the country, it is
gratifying to know, enjoyed larger
net earnings in 1911 than they did
in 1910. The railroads constitute
onr largeat single industry and are
regarded as an index to business con
ditions generally. Their retord for
last year, therefore. Is encouraging
and quite significant. It tends to
displace the fear of their lack of in
herent resistance force and to enrour
ag hopes for an even better year in
1912.
Of course, some roada came out
f-1 with losses. The net rain, therefore.
is the more Important, showing what

of Interest to note that, for the month
of December, for Inatance, among the
roada showing a loss Is the Wabash,
a road this I. facing receivership,
not for lack of available material re
sources, but entirely because of mis

Democratic FrogTajn in Kebratka.
la an authorised Interview printed
in the current Isnue of the Outlook,
Mr. Bryaa reiterates the program
which he ha. set out for hi. follow
ing among democrat, with reference
to the selection of a presidential can
didate. To quota him exactly, ha
say.: '
The prog rtmlve democrats are divided
among avral candidates. I hep, how-
e-r, that they will be sble to acre In
each Mate upon the proaraaalve who Is
UrtiniMl In that state, and thus prevent
a unltort minority from triumphing over
a divided malortty. This la the chief tank
before the proareestv democrats In th
neit few months, and I have confidence
eneti.h In their wisdom and eameatneas
to hellpve Hist they will get together.
This means, then, that the Drat
thing Mr. Bryan will undertake to do
when ha reaches bom. will be to cen
ter th. democrat, of Nebraska who
take hi. advice upon a .Ingle candi
date before th. presidential prefer
ence primary. It goea without say

fart, It look. a. though it would be
ea.ler for the Bryan people to drop
Folk and take up Wilson than for
th. Wilson men to relinquish their

young girls, rsnRlng In age from 14 to ID

The card sharp got nervous. He was

he struggled through the game a loser.
