President Harrison is the first President of
the United States who has suggested legislation
for the protection Of railroad employees, thus
broadening the field of national law-making
and encouraging deserving body of workmen.
In his first annual message he recites the fact
that the attention of the Interstate commerce
commission has been called to the urgent need
Of Congressional action for the better protec-
ton Of the lives and limbs of those engaged in
operating the great interstate freight lines of
the country, and especially of the yardmen and
brakemen. The STAR agrees with the President
When he says that 1t ia . reproach to our civili-
sation that any class of American workmen
should, In the pursuit of q necessary and useful
vocation, be subjected to q peril of life
and limb as great as that Of q soldier in
time Of war. Nearly 10000 railway brakemen
petisioned the commission, asking that steps
might be taken looking to the use of automatic
brakes and couplers on freight cars, and the
state railroad commissioners, in their meeting
here last March, adopted unanimously, upon
the invitation Of the interstate commerce COM
mission, aresolutiou urging the commission to
consider what can be done to prevent the loss
OF life and limb in freight car coupling and un-
coupling and in handling the brakes Of such
cars 1t is an astounding fac. that in a single
year, or between June 80, 1887. and June 80
1888, over 1900 railway employees were killed
In service and more than %, 900 injured. Surely
this slaughter and Wholesale manning can be
stopped by little judicious and constitutional
legislation.

Next Wednesday will be celebrated in the
hall of the House Of Representatives the one
hundredth anniversary of the first meeting of
Congress under the, Constitution-an event OF
signal importance almost entirely overlooked
by public who have in the past thirteen years
hardly been able to keep up with the vast tide
ofcentennial commemorations There will no
doubt be an impressive assemblage to hear the
address Of the Chief Justice.

1t is hoped that the commission appointed to
look into the question of the condition of the
sewers Of Washington will not fail to notice in
their report the effect produced on the sewers
d the present condition OF the long bridge
win its dam Of stone around and between il.

Popmac crossed by this bridge made by Major
Hams and now in his Office would furnish

Congress has lavished upon the local raj

Congress has lavished upon the local rail-
roads privileges worth millions of dollars at
the expense Of the people Of the capital and
the people Of the United States It has dis
regarded infractions Of the law by the rail-
roads, the miserable accommodations provided
for the capital and the Disagreement Of the
parks and streets in the vicinity Of the Capitol
building. It has suffered the railroads to oc-
cupy public streets seized without the authority
Of law, to put streets legally occupied to unau-
shorized uses, and to destroy life and property
while in the act Of violating the laws regulating
the speed of trains, the protection Of cross
ings and the obstruction Of streets
within the city limits. Not only has it per-
mitsed the rights of the local community to be
trampled upon, but in the engagement at the
Eastern Branch bridge it even suffered the
forces Of the United States to be ANONYMOUSLY
put to fight The whims of these spoiled
favorites of the national legislature have been
gratIied even TO the extent Of permitting one
of them to kick Uncle Sam In the full enjoy
ment of these extraordinary privileges the rail-
roads now say to the nation: UNLESS you con-
firm our illegal holdings Of government prop
erty. quit this talk about changing our grades,
and permit Us to use the public streets as freight
yards and to hold ourselves above the laws Of
this petty District, whose people are grumblers,
not voters, and are st only to be killed at unpro-
tected grade crossings, we will cut of the cap
ital Of the United States from railroad facilities,
we will refuse to deliver freight to it. and we
will starve it out, even IL we temporarily inju-e
ourselves in so doing" They address to an in
dulgent Congress the same sort Of threat which
Punch's bad boy aimed at his doting grand
mother: "WeIl granny I've eat the cherries
you gave me, and now il you don't hand over
sixpence I'll swaiier the stones!' Might not
an energetic spanking by Uncle Sam improve
the morals and manners Of these spoiled pets
Of the nation?
The position assumed by the railroads is al
most certain to force some action by Congress.
The injuries inflicted upon the business men of
Washington have been indicated in the inter-
views published in The STAR The growing
business Of the city requires a corresponding
enlargement Of railroad facilities. Existing
conditions must be improved both for the
benefit Of the city and of the railroads; and
especially in view Of the extraordinary require
ments Of exposition year, 1894 But it will be
Q lasting disgrace to the national legislature if it
complies with the demands Of the railroads,
backed by the threat which has been made,
and disreyards tho appeal of the city for
check upon the railroad encroachments upon
public property, for the removal of grade cross
ings within the city limits, for the selection Of
permanent station sites and the erection Of
creditabie structures thereon and for the COM
pulsory observance by the railroads of laws de-
signed to protect the lives and property Of
citizens Of the District.

Done at the Falls.

The Northwestern Miller in it's issue
of Thursday said: The mills average
nearly a 1000 barrel gait for the six
days last week, sixteen of them contrib.
uting to this result, The aggregate
-four output was l12,70O barrels-avrr-
aging 8,783 barrels da1ly-against 1OO,-
100 barrels the week before, and ILL.,
400 barrels for the corresponding time
in 1883. A firm which has arranged to
place 1890 barrels mure capacity in op-
Grafton Monday. al the last me ment re-
versed its decision, and so with one
mill of 1900 production taken from the
operative list OF week ago, there is a
trifle less hour being ground now than
at that time However, many Of the
mills are being crowded harder, as a
result of more or less accumulation of
orders, and few Of them are getting
in full weeks work, whereas they ran
short time before
