party had majority ia both houses
Of Congress, and the opposition have
soanded loud and long that the lat
ter is Republican measure, which,
had the Republican vote alone been
counted. would never have passed
either House, aud is therefore Dem
pcratic in substance and essence.
There is another matter OF inter-
est to the people of every nook and
corner OF the United States; and to
this same honorable body we look to
undo some more work of the late
Congress. 1t is tho matter OF post
age on county papers, which for years.
prior to July lst, Of tho present
ear, were free fro J postage when
delivered in the county OF publica-
ton. That change in the postal reg
ulatisn, subjecting county papers to
the same postage as that required on
papers that are carried from any part
Of the United States to any other
| part, has met with no favor, aside
from that expressed by the city jour
nails that are thus subsidized to the
extent Of twenty cents per annum

people OF this country have learned
to believe that the government. to
whose laws they are cbedient, and
to which they pay tribute should de-
liver at their post Office, gratis, what
they regard as their "home paper"
This change in the regulations was
prompted, we doubt not, by spirit
Of revenge for the constant clanor
OF the country press for the abolition
of the I" Trankins Privilege"

Railroad Accident.

A fearful railroad occident occur.
red on the c. & N. w. Railroad,
three miles west of Cedar Rapids be.
fore daylight last Thursday morning,
at wLich Time J. B. Watkins, Super.
intenden: on the Iowa DIVISION OF the
c. & N. w. II. r. was killed. The
President OF the road, General Su-
rerintendeht, Division Superintend-
ent and other officials were returning
from tour OF inspection of the road,
and the Superintendent's car was at
tached to tho Pacific Express.
At the place Of the accident,
which was at the loot of heavy
grade, the engine gave out and a
brakemen was dispatched with Ian
tern to signal a freight train but q
lew uiiuuSep Os.......
s,gnalled about a quarter OF a mile
from the disabled train, but the ut
most effort TO stop the train before a
collision occurred, proved unsuccess-
iul. The Cedar Rapids Republican
gives the following particulars, OBJ.
tanned from lion. J. NJ. Shaffer, who
was on the train at the time OF the
accident: Il was standing IN the
rear end Of the sleeper, Immediately
IN front of the Superintendent car,
awaiting my turn at the wash stand.
The freight train came laundering
around the curve, and a gentleman
just washing his face, cried out,
"There's a freight, I want to see
where We are. Said |, "Dont 90 out
of the door," and took hold OF him,
and l started for tho front door of
the car. The engine struck the Su.
perintendent's coach and utterly dc.
molished the rear end, and drove the
forward end into the sleeper The
train was pushed couple OF hundred
feet, and poor Watkins was found
with his body horribly crushed and
in between the cars. He
was 10 his night Clothes, and his feet
hardly reached the front stoop ofthe
every effort to release the
BODY proved unavailing. He was at
irst supposed to have been killed
outright, but ho asked for water, and

hours of endeavor his body was stall
