railway tratik. Eight thousand miles
consisting of, the main stem conneet
Ing Port Augusta with the west, and
the lines "about "Sydney use the 4 fee
8 le4,-inc1e standard while the 7,000
miles in the southeast part or the
continent around Victoria have tracks
5 feet 3 inches apart. The narrower
gauges are unimportant.
It is everywhere agreed that there
should be only one standard gauge
as there is on. the North American
continent and in Europe. What it is
impossible to agree Upon appears to
be the standard ao be adopted. NaL-
uSally wishes the other
to conform to its standard. A roya.la
'commission estimate that the cost of
•standardizing the gauge would . be
221„000,000. It diflicult to prove
'that 'Mir own standard, 4 -feet 8
inch0,1S better than any, other stand-,

There:have 1-16:en railways that oper-
ated on tricks 3' l'eet apart without
complaint. Our own standard was
not adop d because it was judg, to
be better than others, but ,because 14
,happened to be More convenient. The
Australian Royal CoMm'ission
recom-
mended the adolitiOn saf the Amer-
icanand European standard; but this
prbposal in.et with a sterni of protest
• because there was a fair 'greater mile-
" -age coVered by other
1' Our' standard, was ad.oPted,' rather
curiouSly, as. recalled by'. Richard
lloadley Tingley, writing the New
,a.Y.o.altalritune. :We took it:from the
coal mines m
rvor nuberla•nd. POT
"generations the miners had—dire-e'--
hauling coal out of these Mines, in
horse -draw -n, wagons= ...Then" it 'Occur-
,
fed to some unknown -genius to put
rough 'fianges on the -wheels and, lay
down wooden rails to keep'them out
of the wet:and mud. The,diStance-be-
,tWeen the wheels of these. •wagcnis
happened to be 4 feet 81/2 inches,
;and some of the earlier lines in Eng-
land adopted this standard and so
did; some of the earlier lines in the
United States for the sake of 'con:-
forinity. NeVertheless, there was no
la* to regulate the ,distanc,e between
tracks and railroad 'builders could
•
choose •whatever• distance they
thought appropriate. The Great West-
ern Rail*ay, for instance, -had a
gauge of 7- feet, but ,the 'Liverpool
and Manchester adopted the' North-
umberland standard. 'Before there was
a single standa.rd for England, num-
erous royal ,comraissions examined
the matter and much. the same argu-
ments as those now agitating Aus-
tralia :-were Presented 'before the 4
