The Tiffin tribune. (Tiffin, Ohio) 1868-1887, 1873-08-21

In a speech in answer to aserenade,
at his home, William Allen gave vent
to the following bit of wisdom on
what the Democrats, for the last two
or three campaigns, have delighted to
call sold issues"
1t has been said that the Democratic
organization to a certain extent acted
unRisely in attempting to restrain the
unbridled fury of the opposition in the
late struggle in this country. That is
a grave mistake. The passions of the
other party carried them far beyond
what their sober prudence would have
dictated in their conduct OF the war,
and it was necessary that while the
Union should be preserved intact, and
the supremacy and dignity Of the fed
eral government vindicated, the mat
ter should not be aliOwed-to run into
the channels of bloody revenge; there
fore it became necessary that the
Democratic party should enter pro-
test, and that the Northern feeling
should intercede when these ends had
been accomplished, and had it not
been for this protest on the part Of the
Democracy, let me ask you when the
war would have ended9 You can an
swer in the destruction OF the whole
South and the Southern people.
In this view of the case-and insist
ing thst Allen has brought up the old
issues for discussion-we can easily
see where he stood during the war.
He only asserts that Vallandigham's IS
course during the war was right; that
the opposition of the Democracy to
drafts was right; that the anti-war or
ganizations under the leadership OF
Democrats was right; that the efforts
of the Democratic press in Ohio to
prevent volunteering, to get up armed
resistance, to drafts, to oppose every
effort on the part Of the government
to carry on the war successfully were
rightSthat the pet cry of leaders, "not
a man nor a dollar for this unholy
war;" Was right; that the declaration
of their national platform, that the
"war was a failure, and should be
stopped" was not only right but true.
We might enumerate numberless
things that this 'istentorian states
mani has found out were right since
he has come to the surface, but we
have given enough. Allen thinks
that the Democratic opposition to the
war was only for the best, and that
the comfort given the South bythem
was only a sort of break to hold back
the people Of the North to prevent
them bringing the rebels to their
knees too soon. This all seems proper
to him, but he does not attempt to es-
innate the number OF soldiers who
lost their lives by the lengthening Of
the war, through the influence OF such
men as he.

TerrIhIe RaIlroad AccIdent.

CHICAGO, August ia terrible ac-
cide1t occurred at half-past ten last
night, near Iemont, on the Chicago
and Alton Railroad.
The regular passenger train for st.
Louis, left here st 8 P. NJ, and consis-
ted Of baggage car, express ear, three
day coaches, the head one second
class or smoking car, and two sleep
ers. At 1910 z. NJ, when three miles
north OF Lemont, and about twenty
two miles south Of this city, at q curve
in the road, suddenly appeared q coal
train OF thirty-hve cars, running at
the rate of twenty miles an hour. The
passenger train was running at the rate
probably, OF thirty miles an hour, and
neither engineer saw the others en-
gine till it was too late 70 reverse, a
fact accounted for by the curve in she
road, and partly by the dense fog.
The two came together with fearful
force. Being on the curve, however,
each engine left the track and passed
each other, that attached to the coal
train striking the baggage car q few
feet from the end, and showing it off
the track, breaking the coupling be-
tween 1t and the smoking car, which
the engine struck square in the end,
and with such force as to throw the
forward end in the air, so that the en-
gine ran under It, tearing the floor
completely out, hurting the fifty or
sixty unfortunates who were in the
car in a struggling mass to the lower
end, whence there was no chance for
escapei and now q scene of horror en-
sued which cannot be adequately de-
scribed. The smoke stack and dome
Of the engine were knocked off by the
collision, and the broken timbers of
the smoking car penetrated the boil
or, letting loose q dense volumn of hot
steam, which poured into the oar,
binding and scalding the helpless in
mates, who with heartrending shrieks,
struggled vainly to extrieate them
selves. Meantime Conductor Russell
ofthe passenger train, who was unhurt,
and number Of passengers from the
rear coaches, came forward and en-
deavored toassist the poor victims, but
there was little left to do beyond tax.
ing from the wreck the dying and the
wounded, many of whom were fear
fully scalded. Seven died soen after
they were taken out, and four have
since died. The number Of wounded
was thirty-five. - !.
The cause OF the accident WIS the
criminal recklessness Of the conductor
and engineer of the coal trains. whose
duty it was to wait at Lemont till the
passenger train had passed, unless
they had received positive orders to
proceed. This, the officers of the road
say was not the case, and that the coal
train should have staid at Lemont.

The Advertiser has been talking
about sGrant's Back Pay" and
"Grant's Salary Grab" to the TRIB-
UEE for some time, and is anxious for
an answer. As we have always con-
defnned the Salary Grab; and have so
stated, often, we don't care to reiter-
ate it from week to week. Besides
Grant don't get. any back-pay. AS 10
responsibility Of the entire grab il Is
hard to place the responsibility where
it belongs. Both parties are badly
mixed in it, be it said to their shame.
However, the Democracy have the
honor Of furnishing a; larger per cent.
of the power by which 1t was perpe-
trated, according to their strength,
than Republicans.
