SUNDAY TRAINS.
A Positive Position Taken by the Railroad
Commissioners of Massachusetts

A Positive Position Taken by the Railroad
Commissioners of massachusetts,.
Mention was made recently in the Journal
that the good people on the line Of the HOusa-
tonic road, Massachusetts,, had petitioned the
Railroad Commission er to stop the running of a
milk train on that road on the Sabbath. After
hearing both sides the Board of Railroad Com
missioners has denied the petition Of the Housa-
tonic Railroad Company for permission to run
Sunday trains. In their report the commission
ers say: "TwO statute provisions forbid the
running Of railroad trains on the Lords day In
Massachusetts. One forbids the doing of amy
manner Of labor business or work, except works
OF necessity charity. The other forhids travel
lug, with like exception To Justify the board lu
permitting the running of a Sunday train under
chapter 49, section Is, 10 s not requisite to show
necessity even In this qualified sense. Tine
public necessity and convenience are the words
OF the statute. And the intention was to modify
the law so that, upon mixed considerations of
necessity and convenience, throu gh Sunday
train might be authorized. No law was needed
and no consent of the board is needed to justify
the running Of a train which ia S work OF ne
ceesity,' Two hundred and fifty trains tmOre or
less,) as appears from House document No. 90,
1882. are run on sunday without any appliea-
tiOn to this board and without any complaint,
40 far we have heard. And We have never
had occasion to inquire into the circumstances
under which they run. In deciding the Ques-
tion of convenience, are to balance against
the demand the objections from inconven-
.1ence: and in considering the things that are
not convenient as In constituting the whole
law, are directed to have. regard to the due
observance of the day." The commissioners
add; at is hard to imagine place and time
where more disturbance, direct and indirect,
would be caused than by train entering Shef-
field little after IL O'Clock in the morning, pass
ing through the rest of the villages the Housa-
tanc. and reaching Pittsfield little after noon.
The question is, whether a demand has been
shown which warrants the board In authorizing g
such a Sunday train The rule forbids these
trains. To Justify one 1t must be proved to be
an exception"

gets his interests framed to suit him.
self; then the sugar man comes along
and rattles away at the old machin
cry till his interests are fixed salts
factorily to himself; next the patent
medicine man comes along and gives
the crank a yank or two and he has
a tariff on all patent medicines but
his own; SO the silver, the copper,
the wool, the cloth, the coal, the
pulp and even the Linn berger cheese
man gets in his lick on the concern
and uses it to suit himself. The fact
IS gradually dawning upon the pco-
pie that Congress is no longer the
legislative department of our govern

porations use.
