DEATH ON THE RAIL.

A Bad Accident on the Northern Pacific
On Tuesday evening at 7:S5, as the
Atlantic express was laundering along
at about thirty miles an hour, and
when near boulder, on the Montana
division, the train ran into an open
switch on which freight train No. Is
was sidetracked, awaiting the passage
of the passenger, and in a moment all
was wreck and ruin. No. Is had
two g'lCj and these with the prs-
senger engine were smashed to smith
Greens by the force OF the collision and
the mail and express car was badly
wrecked. The casual,..s are as fol-
lows: Killed. Fireman Greene, Of
the freight train, and three tramps,
two OF whom were silent passengers
on the freight and one on the passen-
ger train. The mail agent and several
passengers on the Atlantic express
were roughly shaken up and severely
though not dangerously injured. The
cause of the accident was negligence
of the head brakeman on the freight,
whe left the switch open. When fis
train was sidetrack. ! 1t was bis duty
.osee that the switch over which they
bad run was closed and everything
clear for the passenger. His failure to
do this cost four lives, and ruined
many thousands of dollars worth Of
property.

able members Of the upper house Of
congress. This is the plain question
before the people to-day. For the
senate has spared nothing to make
the issue clear. 1t might have said
that Mr.. Halstead has not the quail
ties essential 10 the discharge of re.
sponsible deplomatic duties, but IL did
not. II might have based its action
on some foolish things that be said
and did during the war, but IL did not.
1t might have taken refuge behind
any one OF a score of pretences. Instead
Of that II singles out, as the one reason
for his rejection, that particular act of
his in which honesty and righteous
indignation rose superior TO political
prudence, and for which the people
think most highly Of him to-day. 1t
was foul outrage Upon political pur-
ity that made an Ohio senatorship the
prize Of successful corruption. IL was
the conciousness Of guilt which asked
immunity for the beneficiary Of that
wrong. 1t wss blot upon the record
when republican senators, not from
corrupt motives themselves, but
through the hated and despised rule
Of action known as senatorial eour-
tesy," helped to defeat an investiga-
fion for which the purity Of the ballot
clamored. Violent and unnecessarily
offensive as was the language OF Mr..
Halstead in denouncing this act, err
though he did In ascribing it to corrupt
motives, yet his position was correct
and bis act one Of great moral courage.
For that reason and for that alone
these senators take their revenge.
IL is poor satisfaction which they
have won. The worst that they could
do was to deprive Mr.. Halstead of
four years' residence at Berlin. In
exchange for that, they have given
him standing and title among those
who hitherto thought least highly of
him; and they have dragged through
the mire their own reputation and
that Of the body to which they belong.
There is no doubt on which side the
sympathy Of the people rests. Nor Is
II probable that the President will be
unmindful Of the challenge which the
senate has thrown down. 1t is his
appointing power guaranteed by the
constitution, which is threatened by
the senate, once more the rule becom-
ing advanced that the power to con-
firm or reject nominations may be
used to avenge private grudges, and
that all the other senators are COM
PEELED In comlty to give the knife
an other thrust whenever one OF them
thinks that his dignity has suffered.
The prerogative Of the President and
the freedom OF the press are the two
objects of the senate's wrath, selected
for punishment. On that issue let
the people decide.

The Senate Disgrace.

The following leading editorial from
the Pioneer Press is only one Of the
many that could be culled showing
the feeling OF the leading papers of
the country in regard to the rejection
ofMurat Halstead ty that body. The
press of the country is thoroughly
awakened to the fact that the senate
does not propose to be criticised either
personally or as body, and the ques-
tion naturally arises, ION what meats
hath Cesar fed that he is grown %
great ?n-And the answer must come
sooner or later:
No act OF either house of congress
for many years has been condemned
with such absolute unanimity
Of public opinion a. the rejection
by the United States senate Of
the nomination Of Murat Halstead
as minister to Germany. 1t will be
both surprising and unfortunate If
this incident does not arouse the coun-
try to 0 more active sense Of danger
from senatorial usurpation of execr
tive functions, and lead the way to-
ward such reform as shall make repe-
ti.ion Of like scandal impossible. For
there are no mixed motives In this
bus neEs. The serste has taken pains
to make the case an absolutely plain
one, and to leave no room for doubt or
for defense ofits course.
Mr.. Halstead ls, perhaps, neither An
ideal journalist nor an ideal diplomat.

stoned, impressionable man, whose
instin cts. and principles are right, but
whose feelings are very apt TO run

The Prices Confederate Soldiers Had to
Pay for Supplies.
Admiral Foote Post, G. A. R., No.
IL, of this city, has COME into posses
sion of quite a treasure n the shape of
an old Confederate wal' chest, which
was obtained under the following cir
cumstances:
On Memorial day, 1877, when the
post was engaged in dect rating the
graves of the soldiers in Grove street
cemetery, they found a ,ravestone
upon which was a Confederate flag,
70 which was fastened q card bearing
the words, Boys, take my hag." as II
in token of surrender.
The grave was that of j. NJ Pearl,
who died in 1874, and who was for
merly in the Confederate service. The
grave was strewn with flowers by the
boys in blue. In appreciation of this
fraternal act j. l. Pearl, the father
of the deceased Confederate soldier,
who was himself paymaster ON the
Confederate steamer Morgan, gave the
Admiral Foote Post an old chest con-
tanning some very valuable papers.
In the collection are papers and let
ters bearing the signature of Admiral
Franklin Buchanan, who commanded
the celebrated Merrimac in her fight
with the Monitor and who also was in
command of the ram Tennessee, which
Farragut sunk Aug. 5, ls6L Among
other documents are those signed by
Capt. Ebenezer Far1and, Lieut.. Com
mander w. +. Renshaw, Commander
George w. Harrison, S. ID. Mallory,
the Confederate secretary of the navy,
and others.
The papers are very interesting in
showing how huge were the prices for
everything in 1864, when the Confed-
eracy was on its last legs Secretary
Mallory replied 10 one of Paymaster
Pearls requests for money, and says
that the amount of 81, 500 asked for by
him will be sent as soon as congress
makes the further appropriations.

VIEWS OF THE SAMOAN TIMES.

VIEWS OF THE SAMOAN TIMES.
| The result of the meeting which
took place lately is so far satisfac-
tory in respect at least of the per
feet unanimity which exists within
the Malietoa party. The feeling
which seems to pervade the minds of
the whole body is the hasty forma-
ton of government and the estab-
lishment of a permanent peace.
With the determination of Malietoa
to pass over the guiding of the ship
to Mataafa, we have at present
nothing whatever to do, it is simply
an arrangement amongst themselves
to make known to all their people
that the followers or immediate
friends of either Malietoa or Mata-
ala must in future obey one head,
and permit no jealous feeling what
ever to be engendered amongst
them, or create any unfriendly feel
ing amongst themselves by discuss
ing the right of either of the two
chiefs to the high position of King
of Samoa. Malietoa seemed to be
very anxious that his people should
understand the position he in future
intended to assume. Many Savaii
chiefs, who are fast supporters of
Malietoa, have repeatedly endeav-
ored to induce him to resume his
power. To all this the late king
patiently listened for nearly two
months, until he made himself |
acquainted with all that had trans
pired during his absence from Sa-
moa, and the conduct of Mataafa as
a guide and ruler of his people dur
ing the late unprecedented war and
troubles. Malietoa then determined |
to pass over to Mataafa, for time
at least, the governing of Samoa
and this great Fono was held for the
purpose of hearing Malietoa's deter
to transfer his authority to
Mataafa. Many of our foreign resi-
dents appear to think that the
change was premature, and that the
natives should have waited until
some instructions had been received
from the three Powers with refer
snee to the appointment of king,
and that the whole business will
nave to be gone through again as
'oon as such instructions arrive.
ramasese or his followers, although
n a considerable minority, about |

have been the curse of all islands of
the South seas, and more especially
Samoa. The future King of Samoa
will for some years at least have to

near future to assume in her com

islands frame ordinances suit
able to ensure the prosperity of the
inhabitants of the islands, both ma
tive and foreign, in such substan-
tial state that it will be utterly inn
possible for any serious outbreak to
again occur. On those grounds it is
highly desirable that all natives.
whether they be followers of Tama-
sese or Malietoa, should have an |
equal voice in the choice of their |
king, and hereafter they will have
no reasonable grounds for opposing
his authority. We must now look
upon the late native meeting as
representing only the followers of
a Malietoa party, who, even if they
are in majority of four fifths of the
should not prevent the
other fifth an opportunity to speak
