RAILROAD ROMANCE.

We are moved to instant recogni-
ton of the divine right of railroad Of.
fcials by the cool manner in which the
Spuyton Duyvil inquisition fixes the
responsibility of that wanton disaster
upon people who had no concern with
the road or with the salaries it dis
penses. The idea that accountability
stands in some distant relation to pay,
never entered the luminous minds of
that inquest. The fact is these inves-
tigating commissions are about as
mean and meaningless mockery as
officials could desire in order to mis-
lead the public, and to make public
duty a by-word and entangling moral
relations sham. Hereafter when rail-
roads commit murder, let the law either
clothe them with IMMUNITY or hold them
answerable in heavy fines without re.
gard to circumstances or situation
Human life will be safe when there is
money in preserving it, and then acci.
dents will never happen.

A RUSSIAN REPUBLIC.

1t can hardly be possible that the
Russian empire is to undergo another
decade of Siberian exile for her pa
triots, or of the heroic sacrifices, IN
any form, which have made Nlhlllsm
the admiration of the world. There
is no mistaking the square settlement
to which a determined people are
rapidly bringing the doomed house OF
Romanoff. Russia is not the country
for a Jacobin reign of terror, but a
revolution no less sweeping to the
throne and aristocracy, while less
bloody to the nation, overshadows the
way as she strides majestically forward
in her grand march to freedom How
steadily her patriots, proud in their Sc
clusion, and resolute as rock In the
purpose that moves them, have fought,
more efectually as we think than with
the horrifying click Of the gullot'ne or
the mighty tramp or armies, the sacred
battle of freedom. England must
hasten to consign her dead royalty to
her morgue if Russia is not to take
precedence of her as republic.
Silent and irresistible is the march OF
her destiny and it may be hoped that
her hour of deliverance is at hand.

THE HOUSTON POST ON OSCAR WILDE

THE HOUSTON posi- ON OSCAR WILDE
| We confess ourselves almost dazed
by the alluring delights ofOscar Wilde's
poetry. He has written a sonnet at
least, perhaps two, which would have
immoltalised John Keats; and we ask
the Houston Post, which has recently
spread itself in a wild objurgation
against Wilde. not to forget it. We
are not going to contend that Oscar
has genuine fire, or diffuses the mag
netic element largely, or at all, into his
glittering structures of dainty thought,
but he does splendidly what might be
more easily done worse. So, if the
Houston Post man will call halt and
not again put his editorial 10 shoe on
Oscars literary corns it will not bring
into jeopardy the reputation of this
commonwealth for aesthetic taste in
poetry. We don't want the Texas
bird to build its eyrie at the top of a
mud heap.
Now the Houston Post will not
quarrel with the young man for scor-
ing a good tally against old England
for her ritual in the home ofthe COM
mercial god where she daily exalts
traffic over art.
This mighty empire hath but feet of clay;
Of all its ancient chivalry and might
Our little island is forsaken quite;
Some enemy hath stolen its crown Of bay,
And from the hills that voice had passed away
Which spoke of freedom. o, come out of it,
Come out of it my soul. Thou art not fit
For this wild trafic-house, where, day by day.
Wisdom and reverence are sold at mart,
And the rude people rage with ignorant cries
| Against heritage of centuries,
1t mars my calm; whel efore in dreams of art
And Hottest culture would stand apart,
Neither for God nor for his enemies.
And the following word building
can not be excelled in grace, beauty or
delicacy, go into what sanctuary we
may, even among the recognized
masters of the English sonnet.
To drift for every passion till my soul
Is stringed lutte on which all winds can play.
Is it for this that have given away
Mine ancient wisdom and austere control?
Methinks my life is a twice-written scroll,
Scrawled over on some boyish holiday,
With idle songs for pipe and virelay
Which do but mar the secret of the whole,
Surely there was time l might have trod
The sunlit nights, and from life's dissonance
Struck one clear chord to reach the ear Of
God.
Is that time dead? Lo with little rod
| did but touch the honey of romance
And must lose souls inheritance
