While it is not within the province of The Post to advocate any sudden measures of reform, yet it behooves" us to warn our readers of any public swindled no matter under what guise he may be operat ing.

The unsuspecting man, thinking he was getting a bargain, bought the timepiece and later handed it over to a fellow passenger who hapwatch w ks found to he worth less than pened tube a jeweler.The ' $5.00, A similar ease occurred recently when a lady bought a pair pf worthless cuff buttons which fell to pieces before she got off the train. She asked for her money back, but the unscrupulous agent stated" that he could do nothing and that she would have to turn them into the general office. These things are going on continually ami the public should no longer tolerate them.. Ordinarily these agents waht to make from 100 to 300 per cent profit on every item they handle and .invariably .they, fake the public besides. It seems to us that there is no reason why a respectable railroad company should carry these public fakers business. - The public and tolerate their lllicit'methods- doesnt need them, and further than that, the people should bew'are of their triekry and not paL'niYize them untiTthey raise their standThe news companies are ard above that of a common largely responsible for the class of agents they employ and until they realize the importance of square dealings they merit nothing hut adverse sentiment from the traveling public. special-observati- ons of-do- they tip stream, bigfirw-am- l put stones oiie'persofft8 ef!iiXl in the tepeQ friends' them put on the fire.

A recent issue of the Financial Chronicle contains an interesting and ins tractive article on the relatively greater stability of electric compared with steam railroad investments, From the facts presented it appears that whereas steam railroads inT191I showed a heavy reduction in both gross and net earnings compared with 1910, the electric roads showed in both a gain The evidence of last year in so far as electric lines are concerned -- was a repetition in the main of that supplied by previous years, and the greater stability of the electric roads seems to be well established. Speaking generally, this advantage may be accounted for by the fact that the business of electric roads is but little exposed to con- ditions like those which in one year produce large and in another year small crops. Nineteen hundred and eleven was a shoi t crop year owing to the severe drought which prevailed over a large part of the West. Jftus reduced the traffic in agricultural products, and sineA that traffic is chiefly over steam, roads, Jhe latter were severely affected, w hereaVthe: electric, linos lost but little.
