Tho Mingo Inquest.


The corOners jury which.has been ait
ting on the Mingo horror. seem 10 take
but little stock in freight conductor Ster.
IlpE's story about his watch being stopped,
and have had him arrested. This is right as
far as it goes, but we are at loss to un'
derstand why the engineer Otthe freight
train was no. also put under arrest.
There is no doub. but that the con-
ductor and engineer Of the freight train
were both criminally careless. This Is
clearly shown by the evidence before the
Coroner which went to prove that at no
time in the presence Of any Of the wit
nesses, did the conductor and his engineer
compare watches. live are not mtsin-
formed, one Of the rules Of the Railroad
Company requires those two respOn-
slble parties to compare time at
every sta.ion, also that both are
required to look at their watches
every twenty minute'. In the running
Of traihs the engineer is held equally re-
spon.ible for Observance Of the schedule
with the conductor. He has no right to
pullout from station or siding without
examining his watch, even when ordered
To do SO by the conductor. II there Is
any difference In their time pieces, and
they are not at \ station where they can
DO adjusted, we are informed by high
railroad authority that the trsinshould
be Kept on the eide track until a passen'
ger train passes. There was nothing
wrong with the schedule on the morning
Of the Mingo disaster. 1! seems. strange
therefore that Mr.. s N. FELTON, should be
reported as saying that the accident vas
altogether owing to the s.oppage OF Con
ductcs sserling's watch, and that said
sloppags was as much an accident as the
collision itself.
I. Is within the limits oil possibility
that the watches OF both the conductei
and the engineer Of the freight train might
have been out Of time, but i. i, in the
highest degree improbable. For this sea'
son we are inclined to think that Mr.
FELTON, has been misreported, There ia
no excuse for the disaster that would be
Of the least weight in court Of justice
aud while 1t Is not reasonable TO suppose
that there was deliberate intent to cause
the collision, there was undoubtedly mos
criminal neglec. on the part Of the re-
sponsible parties, TO comply With the rule
Of tho Railroad Company, and il the Law
will send the guilty officers to the peni-
Tertiary, /. will only do that which vii
be approved by the public sentiment o
the country. The Coroner, however
should not make a scaps goa. Of Con
ductor Sterling, He and his eugineeI
should sail Ia the same boat.

ChMIs,tou Courier Of the 10Th.
Mr.. Walker in his remarks before the
greenback convention this morning saw
proper to attack the Congressional plat
form for not having inserted plank de-
mandlpg the taxation OF the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railroad. Now it seems to us
that the greenbackers are hard up for an
issue when It is we'll known 70 every
member oil the greenback party that nine
out Of ten counties represented In that
convention have passed resolutions de-
mAnding the taxation OF this road. Il IL
an issue 10 nearly every county In the
district. Il would be utterly impossibIe
for . man running on the Democratic
ticket 10 this Congregational district TO be
elected who was opposed TO the taxation
Of this road and nobody knows Il better
than Mr.. Walker. If these are the Is.
sues upon which the greenbaekers pro-
pose 10 make the fght they are In bad
way for success. The trouble Is they have
no Issues but Democratic ones. a son.

There has been, therefore, during what
may be termed the distressing period Of
life insurance, and certainly the depress'
ing period, caused by unwarranted lack
Of sontidence in the business, an increase
ia assets to the amount Of q per cent an
increase 10 liabilities Of 90 per cent. and
an inerecSe in surplus d So per cent? What
business in the world, during the past
Eve years, left even to itself and the most
careful nursing, without attacks upon 1t
from all quarters such as lie insurance
has received, can show such remarka'
bic record OF progress and successH The
figures seem astounding in view OF all
that has been said and written upon the
subiec. OF life insurance by newspapers,
even OF the high standing Of the New
York Times, and yet they give accurate
data Of the condition Of the Hartford
companies. There need be no further
apprehension on the subject OF life insu::
rance as regards the life corporations oil
Hartford embraced in this summary.
And let US hope that, in the face Of such
figures, further ignorant and malicious
attacks may cease.

General Howard, in recent
correspondence with Rev. Geo.
Il. Atkinson on the Iudian
question, admitted there was
some danger OF an outbreak
from two localities, but thought
the government could and would
take proper measures to prevent
such troubles and losses as we
have habitat much trouble may
be avoided by a strict adherence
on the part of the government to
promise and stipulation of treas
ties now about to expire. He fa-
vors our view OF granting home
steads under patent, with all the
legal rights, to heads of families !;
believes, as we have believed for
years, that 1t wiz help break trl>

men. Nothing will 60 it quicker
