Grade Crossings in Connecticut

| Hartford (Conn.l Cuurant.
The whole SEN iment of the State as a
State is against the bIcod-stained and
destructive grade crossing. Laws have be. n
enacted Tor the purpose of gradually getting
! rid of them. Everybody is afraid of them.
Every year their victims are caught, slaugh-
tered and buried. Recently there came the
prop stion 20 build branch line of the
Consolidated road from West Haven to Savin
Rick. The layout crossed eighteen high
ways, and it was proposed to have every one
of these grade crossing-to add eighteen to
the already 1900 death traps of the State!
The railroad company said it would build ON
no other line, aud the people along the line
approved the layout and desired the building
of the road The railroad commissioners of
the State have approved the layout, but only
on condition that seventeen of the eighteen
crossings shall not be at grade The eigh-
teenth crosses a highway that is practically
never used This decision is worthy of the
highest praise. 1t is loud assertion of the
principle that the public safety is worth
more than private interests, and though
appeals may be made for reversal of their
verdict, we trust the commissioners will
hold firm to the right position they have
taken. There should not be another grade
crossing constructed in the State of Con-
necticut, and those that are now tolerated
should be gradually dons away with. Laws
on the subject would be mere farce if
eighteen new crossings were permitted in
one town for any cause whatever, even to
encourage the picnic industry.

@-Mr. Blaine's complete and thoroughly sat-
isfactory explanation of his marriage, in private
letter to friend, has recently been published in
all the prominent journals of our country, and we
gladly reprint it this week. We never entertain
ed even the shadow of doubt regarding the
falsity of the base and infamous charges, brought
by the Indianapolis Sentinel regarding this vile,
sanderous charge against Mr.. Blaine and his
family, so gross to carry conviction to its pitt
full baseness and untruthfulness.
The fact is, no respectable person, Of whatever
party sentiment, gave the slightest credence to
this vile libel, even from the very first. 1t is al
most too low and pitful to be noticed for explana
ton, and would not only for the baseness of its
falsehood and the critical position which Mr.. Blaine
at present holds as the Republican candidate for
President Of the United States and for the sacred
ness in which he holds the honor of himself, his
wife, children and friends.
The whole respectable world will heartily ap-
plaud him for the course he has pursued in thus
indicating those nearest and dearest to him, and
for the delicate and noble manner in which he has
done it. He will have the highest approval of
every good citizen in the country for putting for
ever to rest so base an untruth and for eecting it
SO manfully, SO nobly. Mr.. Blaine, in his domes-
tic family relationships, stands unscathed before
the world Right and virtue are on his side.
