Another Railroad Horror.

Another terrible railroad disaster occur
ring within few miles of the scene of a
slmilar calamity, and exceeding it, and the
\ ghastly and dreadful character of its de-
tails calls attention for the thousaudth
time to the inefciency of the precautions
to preserve life.
1t 10 becoming more and more evident
with the eternally increasing list of rail-
ruad wrecks, that this is matter that
must he more rigidly controlled by law.
7 There are several ways in which railroad
collisions could be rendered impossible,
but they all involve considerable decrease
Of the profits of railroading, and so stand
small chance of voluntary adoption by the
companies. The double tracking of all
roads, and the exclusive use of one track
Tor travel in one direction, combined with
. block system and the use of Edison's de-
vice for telegraphing from moving train,
would appear to render collisions almost
impossible. BY the use of Edison's system
an officer of the road can sit in an office at
the terminus, and with map of the road
before him, receive reports at regular in

trains stating their positions. BY this
means collisions could be foreseen and
avoided the supervising officer telegraph
ing the necessary orders to conductors of
imperilled trains.
Mr.. Edison is the pilot to a new and wide
field for the play of inventive genius, and
his success gives hope that in the applica-
tion of electricity to the regulation of pas
senger sand freight travel, we may event
ually find perfect protection from these
constantly recurring horrors.
1t does not appear beyond the bounds of
possibility that electrical appliances may
be devised whereby train would automati-
cally give notice of its approach for half
mile in advance, and it would seem a
wise measure Of public policy for the state
TO offer a reward for the invention of some
such device.
The French government has made q
practice of offering rewards for inventions
of great public value, ever since Napoleon
III. succeeded in establishing the great
sugar industry of France, by the offer of a
large reward for the invention of the best
process for making sugar from the beet.

along three thousand miles OF the desoIate
coast OF Labrador, are on the verge of OF a ter
riole famine During the coming winter
they will be entirely dependent on the gov.

OF removing the entire population to more
hospitable shores is being seriously discussed.
This appears to be the only course worthy
OF consideration, as it is plainly evil
dent that the fisheries can no longer afford
reliable support to these people Canada is
blessed with an abundance of fertile land

than probable that the charity of our people
