This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Proceedings of the Annual Convention of the American Railway Master Mechanics Association, 1886 I recognize your Association as having done more, perhaps. M develop the country than any other Association in our land. Themillionaire may spend his millions in building railroads and look for large profits, but without your brains and your intelligence to carry on all the details of his work I am afraid his profits would not amount to anything. So far as our city is concerned, I don't know that we can show you anything very original or new in the way of improvements. We have got what we consider a very finely constructed water works, but other cities have precisely the same, and I don't know that we excel other cities in that respect. Our sewerage system, I believe, is more perfect than that of any other city in the country. Boston proper, some time ago, had about seventy sewer outlets pouring all its filth around the city. Now we carry that out to the ocean at an expense of over six millions of dollars, and we al ready feel the benefit of it. Our health department shows that the life of our citizens has been prolonged by it three or four years; that is, the death rate is less to-day by three or four on the thou sand than it was years ago before that great improvement was made. I see that one of the papers to be read before your Association is Shop Tools and Machinery. That is a subject that I think you can enlighten us upon. Boston is the only city in the country, I might say, that does not encourage mechanics. On every en gine, on every little tool that a mechanic uses, Boston places a tax I don't believe in it, and a great many of us don't, and I hope you will show us the advantage of such things so that we will make a change in that respect and encourage you mechanics to come here without taxing your intelligence, your boilers or your tools, but en courage you to go to work among us to build up the industries of the city.

Download or read book Report of the Proceedings of the Twenty Fourth Annual Convention of the American Railway written by Angus Sinclair and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Proceedings of the Twenty-Fourth Annual Convention of the American Railway: Master Mechanics' Association Held at Cape May, N. J., June 16, 17 and 18, 1891 There are two ways in which motive power officers can decrease the cost of transportation. These are, the making of locomotives more economical in the use of fuel, and the redue ing of the wages account by making them pull heavier trains. Fuel is the most expensive item in motive power accounts, and it naturally receives the greatest attention. The efforts to reduce the consumption of fuel have led to decided improve ments in the proportions of locomotives. In the past, When little attention was bestowed upon the economical use of fuel, the tendency was to make the cylinders too large for the boiler, With the result that the boiler was intensely forced to generate steam used by the cylinders. This defect is being rapidly corrected. Larger boilers are being applied to over cylindered locomotives, and a striking feature about all new locomotives is the liberal size of boilers. The economy that results from the improved proportions is materially reducing the cost of moving trains, and still there is no disposition manifested by the members to rest and be satisfied that nothing better can be done. The efforts to still improve the motive power are increasing. This progressive sentiment has been manifested during the past year in the introduction by several railroad companies of com pound locomotives, and the results are highly encouraging. The activity of our members in striving to improve the machin ery under their charge may be judged by the work of investiga tion undertaken during the past year.

We do not know where we stand until we compare ourselves with our neighbors. Who has not been sitting in a railway train and imagined that a train on an adjoining track was standing still, while his own was moving, until, casting his eye upon the ground, the delusion is suddenly dispelled, and we find that we are standing still and our neighbor is the one that is moving. So it is oft times in mechanics. We think we have the best, we are moving, but by comparing ourselves with others, we find to our dismay that it is the other fellow that is moving and that we are fast falling to the rear.
