At the last session of the Virginia legis-
lature law was passed requiring all rail-
road agents at telegraph stations to be at
their place at least an hour before the
arrival Of each passenger train, and to
plainly mark on bulletin board whether
or not the train is late, and if late how
much In compliance with this law a
number of the railroads have placed these
bulletin boards at the stations along their
lines, and we would commend their action
and the law to the no tice of the B. Il o.
officials. For a long time they have fol-
lowed the foolish and cruel plan of not al
lowing their employees to give any in
formation in regard TO wrecks OF accidents
on the road. 1t is foolish because thes,
things cannot be kept from the public
but are all the more liable to appear in al
exaggerated form, and cause the public Il
believe that accidents are much NOR
freq uent on the road than they really are
and cruel because it prevents persons from
going 10 the assistance Of friends and rel
atives who may be hurt and badly il
need of their assistance. We hope thu
road will at once comply with the law
If they don't the thing will be put to then
TO its full extent, dead sure.

1t is with unfeigDed sorrow we announce
the death of little Atlantic Lee, the bright
aud only child Of Mr.. Z. l.. Hisey, foreman
Of this office, which sad event occurred at
their home in Edinburg, on Saturday
afternoon at 3:45 o'clock. For about two
weeks this innocent little sufferer fingered
on the confines Of earth, watched with all
the prayerful devotion of hearts that
hung over II with love unspeakable.
But Providence too wise TO err, too
merciful TO afflict willingly, had need for
yet another little babe in that Heaven
beyond the stars, and so at His loving call
its pure spirit went from the sorrows and
dangers of earth to a bliss beyond all
power Of words. To the aching hearts
left behind the sympathy Of many warm
friends go out with exceeding tenderness
for they are indeed bereaved. Although
but year, month and Is days old, thi'
dear little girl was one of the brightest
and most attractive of children.
Rosy cheeks have now grown pale,
Ruby lips now speak no words.
Breath as soft as summers gale,
Voice as sweet as warbling birds.
Oh that stiffness all around,
Oh that silence lone and deep,
Tender ears can hear no sound,
Little Attie's gone to sleep.
Years will 60 and years will come,
But the form we loved 80 we'll
1t has vanished from our sight.
How we miss her none can tell
Angels from their starry home
Called the gem we could not keep,
There she waits until we come,

Reform Inconsistency.

The illustrated organ of mugwumpery in
this city has at last opened its eyes to q
realization of the fact that the President
has thrown off his civil service reform mask
and come out in the toga Of a machine pol
itician. President Arthur, who honestly
lived up to the requirements of every feat
ure of the law governing appointments in
the civil service, never received word OF
praise from the organs now hunting around
for excuses for Cleveland's betrayal of the
reformers. If Mr.. Dorman b. Eaton were
put on the stand he would give evidence TO
the hearty cooperation which the Commits
sion of which he was the Chairman received
from President Arthur and his department
chiefs. No attempt was made to evade the
law.
Now that Cleveland has abandoned civil
service reform as advocated by Mr.. Curtis
and his followers, what may be expected of
thsn? Are any of them opposing his re-
nomination as they opposed Arthur's nom-
nation, on the ground that he does not
truly represent their views? Not one of
them. They all concede his nomination,
and. so far as we have seen, advocate 1t.
The Republican party was the author Of
the civil service law. Its President faith
fully executed the law, but the reformers
deserted Arthur and the Republican party.
Il ne DemOcrutlc party was never III lhNOr
of the law, and its President has given up
all pretense of favoring reform, and yet the
reformers are seeking excuses for Cleve-
land, and by 80 doing are encouraging to
the extent of their ability the Democratic
party, which is, and always has been, little
Hss than an organized grab for anything
in sight in the shape of public plumber.
The average reformer's consistency is
paste jewelry. -Nep York Press.
