The New Hampshire railroad commission.
ers speak their minds in their last annual
report. Speaking of the great railroad fight
between the Concord and Boston & Maine,
they say; From the beginning the strug-
gle has been fruitful source of crooked
ness and bad faith, of suspicion and Islander,
of debauchery of the public conscience and
Of damage to the reputation of individuals
and the fair fame of New Hampshire" Yet
the commissioners find that out of this strife
OF giant corporations the people of New
Hampshire have snatched substantial advan-
tage. Fares and freights have been reduced
until they are now lower than in any other
State where railroads are operated under
similar conditions. The balances bang
pretty evenly in the long run, n spite of the
make-wcights of special interests.

The Maine Farmer points out that the crow
law is "senseless thing" and does network
well in practice. The object of the law was
to destroy the crow, but If person should
happen to be unable to kill another one after
securing nine, the nine pass for nothing.
Suppose the lucky number is obtained; then
even the object of the lawmakers is render
ed null and void. for by the provisions of
section six, seven and eight of chapter thirty
of the Revised Statutes, he must take his
oath that the black villains were all killed
in ten days; and there is then held out
strong temptation to tell wrong story. The
Farmer thinks the law should be amended
or repealed. 1t should be repealed There
are hundred other pests, many of them
much worse than the crow, which it would be
more sensible to place bounty on. The
crow does some harm, but he does also much
good.

CARE FOR MOTHER.

ut is mothers turn to be taken care Of"
said bright-eyed girl, as, having left school,
she, of her own free will, took upon herself
many of the homely duties which had once
fallen to her mothers share.
How often mothers do not get their turn in
being taken care of because the daughters do
not think! The mothers ministrations are
accepted as matter of course. Mary feels
tired after busy mornings work and goes
to her room for little rest. Mother feels
tired. too, but she has to keep to work which
must be done. Jane wants new Sunday
dress, and her mother strives to get her one F.;
mother wants one, too, hut both cannot have
a new dress just then, so mother goes with
out. Hetty pines for the seaside in the sum-
mer. and by little management contrves to
save up enough to afford couple of weeks
at a seaside holiday home. Mother pines for
the seaside, too, but no good management on
mothers part (as all the younger children
have to be clothed and seen toy will enable
her to find the means, so mother stays at
home.
Dear girls, let it be the principle of your
lives to give mother her turn In the good
things around you, and you will, whatever
the cost to yourselves personally, never re-
greet it. The memory of the just is blessed
Be just in daily life to the mother who has
been so much and done so much for you and
the memory of this In years to come will in
deed be blessed; without this to look back
upon there must be, to an awakened mind,
constant sorrow, continual regret Pioneer

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Aug. 11.-News
reaches here of q supposed attempt at
train robbery made tonight on the Iron
Mountain road one.half mile south Of
Newport, Arkansas. Two men got on
the train there between the baggage car
and the smoker. A fight ensued between
them and the bsggagemaster, j. f. Gar
rity, and a colored porter, Andy Critten-
den, in which the latter was killed and
the former wounded. One Of the men
Jumped from the train and escaped, but
the passengers ard train men, among
whom was detective, captured the MUIR
derer and brought him to this city on the
train, arriving a little after midnight.
He gives his name as S. D. A. Whitfield,
of Baxter county, this state. He is
about 81 years old He says he and his
partner, Mike Mowlder, who escaped,
were out for som fun as were only try
ing to beat their way, when the fight
came up. Whitfield was heavily armed
and his every appearance shows that he
is border desperate.

city and county prominently to the at
tention of the people of the United
States. Senator Jones says that, in his
opinion, it would be barbarity to force
the exuvie of Los Angeles into the
waters O: Santa Monica, and declares
that the mere statement that the
thing WAS contemplated was an out
rage. He is now busy with pro-
jects to make Santa Monica the most
flashing pleasure resort of the United
States. So much for the sentiment OF
the matter. 1t would be barbarous and
indefensible to destroy Santa Monica.
But there is more than a sentimental
consideration in the question. The Sem
ator says that, if the Councils plan OF
the Ballona sewer is carried out the city
authorities will be enjoined, and that the
Injunction will be made permanent. He
probably knows what he is talking
about; and, in conjunction with the
people of Santa Monica, he is quite able
to see that the matter is taken in hand
by the right kind of lawyers. Here alone
are impediments, sentimental and prac-
tical, which it will not do to whistle
down the wind.
On this question, as on all others, the
HERALD's position is an exact fusion
of good taste, good sense and local
patriotism.

terday gang of 1000 drunken Hunga-
rian coke workers, who did not seem to
understand that the strike was settled in
their favor, started out to close up the
works in operation. They drove the
workers away in two places, and then
proceeded to Bessemer. On the way
they met John L. Daglon, who was rid
ing in a buggy. The infuriated mob
overturned his buggy and beat him SO
badly that his life is despaired of. At
Bessemer, after beating two men, they
made descent upon store, and brea king
the windows and doors, carried off all
the bread and bologp athey could find on
the premises. Secretary Watchorn ad-
dressed them, and finally succeeded in
making them understand that the strike
was over and in their favor. The Hun
garians then retired to their homes, but
this morning they made another raid on
the workmen at the Meyer coke plant,
and drove them from work. Squire
Duncan and Officers Franks and Shunn
attempted to arrest fifteen Of the robbers /;
when they were set upon by the mob.
Duncan was terribly beaten and left for
dead. Shunn and Franks escaped.
The Sheriff organized a posse and went
to Meyer this afternoon to arrest the
Hurs. A sRirmish ensued, in which
numerous shots were fred by both par
ties. Four Huns were arrested, but at
last accounts others were in outhouses,
armed and resisting arrest.
