THE NEWARK TRAGEDY, in its moral aspects,
does not improve by investigation into its
causes and consequences. 1t is one Of the
most suggestive lessons of the social democrat
izations of the day, and yet 1t is only one in
the fearful list Of such tragedies which almost
every day furnishes. Free love and free
murder travel together, and free love assumes
to be political power in the land.

The report which appeared in the HERALD
Of yesterday regarding the crops in Louisiana
was most encouraging. 1t is estimated that
the sugar crop of 1871 will be 1O4, 1881 hogs
heads, against 81, 900 in lS69-70-an increase
of over six.y-six per cent. Since the war
Louisiana has been rapidly recovering. In
1869 the number Of sugar houses was 81, Of
which G64 were worked by steam and 158 by
horse power. In 1870 the number of sugar
houses in operation was 1,l05, Of which 1877
used steam and 26s horse 20 wer. The first
crop amer the war was only G,688 hogsheads.
Negro laborers have been taken in great num-
bers from Virginia, Tennessee, North and
South Carolina, and the prospect for 1912
In bright. The rice crop has not been SO
good, owing, il il said, to the drought. Lou
isisna Is again getting back to prosperity. So
700 most oil the Southern States. Large crops,
after all, OF cotton and rice and sugar will
prove the best kind Of reconstruction. The
day 10 not distant when the South will bloom
as the rose. Under the new conditions the
people will he richer and happier than ever.
BELGIUM AND THE PoPE-Tw0 MINISTERS IN
ROME Belgium is the least of the kingdoms
Of Europe. Belgium, however, Is plucky, al
though small. In the Belgium Senate on
Monday last Baron dAvethan defined the
position Of the government in regard to the
Italian occupation OF Rome. II neither ap-
proved nor disapproved. Two Belgium lega-
tons will, 10 consequence. be maintained in
Rome--one at the Court OF the King and the
other at the Holy See. If the example Of
Belgium is initiated by some Of the other
Powers Rome will be a high old place. Two
sets OF Ministers from the various governments
in the same city would be something without
parallel; but IL would pay, and Rome wSuld
most certainly soon arise from its ashes.

SLAUGHTER OF RAILROAD PASSENGERS. BY
the falling Of rotten bridge over Harpeth
River, Tenn, on Monday night, train on the
Nashville and Northwestern Railroad was
wrecked, killing fifteen passengers and wound
Ing twenty-three others. An unsafe bridge
ON o railroad line is a crime against
The community which deserves the Sc
verest punishment. An accident of this char
acter is altogether inexcusable, and is the re-
suit either Of negligence or incapacity on the
part of engineers and superintendent, or OF
meanness and mistaken economy by the com
pany, which runs the risk Of slaughterlng its
passengers by Wholesale rather than incur the
expense of keeping it's road In proper repair.

There has been some ignorant abuse, and
some abuse with a motive, of our District gov
eminent by irresponsible or anonymous writer's
from here; but the the better class of cores
pondents have quite uniformly taken pains to
treat the new government and its plans or i'm
proyement with fairness.
Here is what the thoughtful and well-informed
Washington correspondents Of the New York
Times says in this connection:
The compendious plan of improvements
made BY the Board of Public Works some me
ago, together with a scheme for raising the
money TO defray the expenses OF the same. has
been iRdorsed by the Legislature of the District
Win some slight notifications. The board Is TO
De allowed the expenditure of $4,000 900 under
certain restrictions 70 lay il out in Improvement
OF streets, sewers and roads in the District lead
ing nom the city, and similar works. The de-
tais OF the plan, II Is understood, are subject to
changes though they are generally approved as
INST exhibited. The opposition to Improvement
mas been quite spirited, but of much less weight
man might have been anticipated. Altogether.

The press is not complimentary to our District
medical association over their late proceedings.
The New York Herald calls them "the foolish
physicians Of Washington" and the Tribune says
they " illustrate to the world how q highly con-
sentative body may destroy instead Of conserv-
ing its own existence" In fact, our doctors
seem to get no praise at home or abroad from
tie newspapers.
