The Chicago and Northwestern has in
troduced the block system Of signalling
trains on the Chicago division. The Chi
cago, Milwaukee and st. Panl railway
will soon adopt this system on its Chi
cago division. 1t consists of erecting ut
each station high pole, on the top of
which is q large iron frame, in which
is placed glass of various colors and used
for signal. It shows equally we'll day
or night. A red signal stops train, and
and is set only when train arrives at q
station from either direction while an
other train is expected from an opposite
direction. In case OF injury to telegraph
wires trains can be held at stations until
it is repaired. thus rendering collisions
practically impossible.

Sad Facts. but True.

It is remarkable that while the Repub-
licans have been searching oil over New
York, up and down, here and there, In every
part Of the State for a candidate at large for
Congress- no one has ever really Thought
that the Hon. WILLIAM NJ. EvARTs would be
an available person on whom the nomination
might be conferred with safety.
1t is equally noteworthy that in the contest
about a candidate for Governor, none OF tho
Republicans turned to Mr.. EvARTs -, d man
who might be selected for the E'i.rpose. The
Stalwarts would not see l.in, and the Half
Breeds passed by on tlils other side. All his
wit. all his eloquence, all the various exploits
OF his pubic career, were alike Intellectual
to draw toward him the necessary attention
cf the party he has served 50 desperately.
If he had been a citizen OF Patagonia, they
could not have ignored him more entirely or
pcrsistently than they have done.
Why is this thus In former days 1t was
not so. Then he was q prime favorite, and
he had right without the least vanity, to
look forward to any distinction within the
gift OF the people. Then he was like field
Of roses in the blooming month Of June, full
of beauty and redolent of hope; but now, In
the estimation OF the great party OF moral
ideas, he is like withered mustard field, its
flowers all dried up, its leaves withered. and
scarcely anywhere a living seed upon the
disngured stalks.
The reason of it all is that Mr.. EvARTs was
an agent, an accomplish, an assistant, In the
electoral fraud OF '76-7, and when it succeed
cd he took his pay In the appointment Of
Secretary Of State to the Fraudulent Presi-
dent. This damning conclusion has blasted
his political career and scattered desolaton
where all was hope. The example should
| serve as n lesson to all men whose ambiti on
equals their talents and exceeds both their
Judgment and their conscience. Let young
Americans especially take warning from it.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-The denomination
OF Congressman Van Voorhees, In the Rochester

hees Is q characteristic Republican Of the
Robson Keller jobbing school. 1t was re-

probable. and that the people in his dis trict
have come to estimate him at his true valua-
ton. With a fair candidate against him. Re-
publicans now here from his district say he can
be beaten. Van Voorhees, has not conducted
himself here so as to be above suspicion. II his
name Ia mentioned here as one of those who go
into politics for what 1t Is worth. his own con-
duct Is the cause OF such unfavorable comment.
He was practically sent to Coventry during tho
last session by reason of his contemplate trick
cry in substituting a bill not reported by the
committee for one that was. and dcceivinR the
House into passing the fraudulent bill. His
expulsion was contemplated. and he stands
condemned to-day by the Commerce Commit.
tee for that act. It cost him the respect and
friendship OF many members. for it 4, very
rarely that members violate the personal honor
that Is absolutely necessary in the transaction
Of the business Of the House. When the same
kind Of trickery was attempted by Democrat.
when the Democracy had the House few years
ago. the person so violating narrowly escaped
expulsion and never regained the confidence
OF his fellow members. IL Van Voorhees, ia re-
turned, his district will be represented by n
man whose word will be distrusted and whose
influence will be Of no account.
