The accident at Bunnelrs crossing of the
Morris and Essex Railroad should bring
about the passage of a general law in this
State compelling all railroads to maintain
gates and gate-tenders at all crossings.
The railroad authorities will probably say
that none but fools will drive upon rail-
road in front of an approaching train.
Granted-when the person does SO deliber-
ately. But no one ever does such thing
deliberately. The horse, frightened at the
engine, becomes unmanagRble and dashes
upon the track, despite the drivers efforts
to prevent the catastrophe. The case in
question, however, was not even of that
nature. The people who were run down
on Monday were driving along road from
which the railroad could not be seen. They
were strangers and did not know the rail-
road was there. A sudden turn brought
them directly upon the track. where, with
out warning of any sort, they were hurled
into eternity. Is it too much to ask that q
company should be compelled to erect
gates and keep man at 80 dangerous
crossing as this? The public safety de-
mands such safeguards and the State should
compel their use. There was time in
this country when the State was the people,
but it's SO no longer. The State is simply
the Legislature and the railroads-the peo-
pie don't seem to have much to say about
anything, even when they are run over and
killed, as were the victims of the Bunnell's
crossing homicide.
The storm which visited Camden on
Monday may we'll be called a cyclone,
though that was hardly the proper name
for it. cyclone, as its name implies, is
storm that travels in circle. But cyclone,
tornado or typhoon. the Camden hiladel-
phla storm did damage enough. 1t was
heaviest in Camden, where eleven houses
were destroyed and number of people
injured. Happily only one was killed in
each city, though as the Camden victim
was found on the shore it is probable that
he came from some vessel lying in the
river. We had a part of the same storm
here but beyond a few trees prostrated and
one man hurt Jersey City escaped without
damage. The storm was general all over
the State, being the seyerest known in
many years. In some sections the rainfall
was 81 inches in sixteen Lours. Several
OF the railroads suffered severely, the dam
age to the Pennsylvania being about $780,
900. No trains could be run over the Bel
yidere end Delaware for twenty-four hours,
one of it's bridges over the Delaware having
been washed away. The Lehigh Valley |

have no doubt that the Monmouth Democrat
is right about it. Governor Albeit is an
aggressive man, and is not wanting even in
the courage that would put the untamed
ocean on the defensive.

A LIVELY RACKET
Expected Next Saturday Among the.
Nailers.
The Question ofWhsther Steel IS Harder to
Cut Than Iron to be Dscided---The
Riverside Nailers on Trial.

The workmen in this city we're on the
qui vive last week over the expected trial
of the nailers employed at the Riverside
mill by the Amalgamsted Association,
which was to have come of last Saturday.
Owing to the non-appearanee of the Prssl-
dent of the Association, Mr.. Weihe, the
trial did not come off. The nailers, how
ever, upon whom the stain of being untrue
to the organization is hesped, are deter
mined to have the matter settled, and on
next Saturday the trial will come of. Pres
ident. Weihe has been notified and will be
present. The history ofthe caseis this: When
the scale of wages of the Amalgamated
Association workmen was compiled pryor to
the first of last June clause was insert
ed which read about as follows: THAT 20
per cent. additional should be paid by the
manufacturers for the cutting OF steel into
iron nails if the steel was harder to cut
than iron" When this scale was signed by
the manufactures they accepted the clause
Now, certain portions of the Association
claim that the cutting Of steel is harder
than iron, and they wanted the nailers to
demand the 20 per cent additional. The
nailers at the Riverside have always
claimed that the steel they were cutting in
to nails was not harder to cut than the
iron. A complaint was laid before the Off
cial of the Amalgamation and they were to
try the matter last Saturday. However, in
the next issue of the SUNDAY REGISTER the
full particulars of this trial will appear.
If the 20 per cent additional be demanded
of the manufacturers Of the steel nail, then
the iron nail will be able to compete in the
market with its enemy the steel nail
