POLITICS IND MORALS.

The Irish conspiracy trials have resulted IN
the conviction of three members 0f PafiiamehI
and four obscure associates. The penaIty 1or
acrarian agitation is imprisonment Tor terms Oh
four or twelve months without labor. Wiiilahh
OBrien and John Dillon being now IN the
United States will enjoy brief respite, Dut
when they return they will he arrested at once
and taken to Jail. Whether they are under
sentence i'm America or are prisoners III Ire
land these members of Parliament are not de-
graded by conviction. At home they are looked
upon as patriots and martyrs; their convlc'ioh
is not a token n reproach, but OF honor they
will be greeted with cheers when they enter
the iail, and they will be feasted ana glofihed
when they come out. Abroad they VIII be
regarded, not as criminals and cOnvicts, but as
poIitical offenders and victims OF unwise ana
oppressye coercion laws. This Is the iatal
weakness of Mr. Bafour's system OF governing
by force. Coercion does not carry with 1t the
moral force of public opinion either in Ireland
or in Christendom Instead OF degrading 1t
ennotles the so-called criminal. IL dIenihes
the convict's cell and thereby paialyzeS the
agencies of criminal law.
Mr. Parncll is in a very different piight.
lie stands self convicted before Ireland ana
the world of baseness and immortality. 20
itical associates may rally about him and re-
fuse to desert him. but the moral forces OF
uubIic opinion at home and abroad are massed
against him. Conviction may ennoble Dillon
and the UBiiens but it degrades him, sullies
the prestige of his honorable service Tor his
country, and brings the patriotic cause with
which he is identified into undeserved reproach
If he seeks to defy public opinion in Ireland
and England, the Home Rule movement VIII
be seriously endangered when its prospects are

LESSONS OF ONE RaILWAY ACCIDENT

The Railroad Commissioners OF Massachu-
set,, have taken plenty of time to prepare their
ranort on the Old Colony accident near Quincy
an August 10, but the exhaustive character
IF the report is proof that most thorough
and searching investigation has been prose-
,u,ed This accident our readers will remem-
her. was caused by a " track ]acE," when hao
heep left upon the track by gang OF repaliers
when an express train was approaching az the
.need of thirty miles an hour. Twelve passed.
oers were instantly killed and eleven DINERS
fatally injured, so that this casualty takes us
nlace a. one of the most notable of a year
r,bicb has been uncommonly prolific of railway
accidents. The direct responsibility is placed
NV the Commission Oh Joseph +. Welch, the
section master but it is stated that on stIalght
niece of track he would have been justified by
the practice of the Old Colony Company ana
of other railroads in using the jack as ne did,
even after the express was due. In point OF
fact. he was working on a curve and failed
IN realize the danger which existed. Conse-
ouently he did not keep a lookout or put up a
flag to warn the approaching train. The Com
mission very properly say that more strhgeh.
rule, must be adopted in regard to the use OF
the track JACK, anu iidhe Sohi0 i"P"
practical suggestions.
The report then takes up the question OF
brake power, and discusses it at considerable
length. The highly significant statement is
made that. if the train had been brought 10
standstill without going the last forty-hve feet
which were covered, "none OF the passengers
wouId have been killed or even seriously IN
ured." Well is it said Seldom has the I'M
nortance of having train supplied with the
host and most efficient brakes been more
terribly or moro forcibIy illustrated. If the
brake power on this train could have been
increased so that the train could have been
stopped forty live feet short OF the place whefe
il did stop. this accident might have been freed
from all its horrors" I'm point OF brake power
il is found that the train was deficient III three
respects: the drlving-wheel brakes on the ell
cine were operated by different handle from
that which operated the brakes on the tram
ON the six-whee trucks OF the Pullman car
only four wheels were provided with brakes, ana
only three cars in the train were fitted with the
latest approved form of quick acting brake
The Commission are convinced that, II these
deficiencies had not existed, the train would
have been stopped more quickly and no loss
of life would have occurred.
The figures given regarding the number OF
cars in the State which are supplied with the
latest and best form of quicIl-acting brake are
startling. and it is to be feared that other
States would not make more favorable show
ing. This report deserves the careful study
of practical railroad men. The suggestions are
of the highest practical value.

THE SENA TIE.

There IS some unnecessary apprehension
about the United States Senate. The Demo
Gratis have made several unexpected gains but
cannot control that body for some years to
come. Republicans have been or will be elect
ed in California, Colorado Connecticut, Iowa,
Nevada North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
South Dakota, Vermont and Washington, and
four Republican Senators will be admitted from
Idaho and Wyoming. The Democratic claim
of success in South Dakota does not as yet ap-
pear to have foundation. As there are now ~
Republicans, of whom 81 hold over, the add
ton of the IL above mentioned would make
46 at the lowest. This leaves Illinois. kansas
and New Hampshire uncertain. with AT least an
equal chance as to each of them that the Demo-
Gratis will gain nothing. for if the Farmers
Alliance elects Senator in Illinois or Kansas
a Republican is likely to be chosen. The pros
pect of success in New-Ilampshire is also con-
sidered good While 46 is the lowest number
of Republicans who may hold seats until March
4. 1898. the number is likely to be two or
three more.
I'm 1898 again. the terms expire of II Re-
publican and ~ Democratic Senators. If only
as Republicans hold seats after next March
the number 10 hOI0 over III 1898 VIII be only
30, so that i6 must he elected at that time 10
insure a clear majority. Judging from the ne
cent elections but also remembering that the
Presidential struggle will bring out full vote
it may be expected that the Republicans will
gain one Senator in California, and will elect
Senators in Connecticut Maine, Massachusetts
Nevada, North Dakota, Ohio. Pennsylvania
! Rhode Island. Vermont, Washington. and Wy
oming or Idaho This would give them only
Al Senators, leaving four more TO be secured
from Delaware, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana
Nebraska, NeM-York and Wisconsin In al
| least four of these States the Republican party
is exceedingly likely to prevail in PR sdentia
year, and thus to secure a majority in the Sen
ate for TWO years longer, even If no Republican
| should this year be chosen from Illinois. Kan
sas or New liampshre.
| II will not be forgotten by the Republicans
who are talking of electing Farmers Alliance
candidate in two of the States this year that
they are giving the Democrats their only chance
to capture the Senate in 1898. If Republican.
are elected in KANSAS and Illinois this year, thu
number in 1898 will be 43 without any OF the

The motive OF Mr.. Bafour's speeches is very
simple one. With ingenious variations the theme
is repeated again and again: Mr.. Gladstone
and the Irish are telling lies-not fresh either, but
very stale" This is eptome of the Chief
Secretary's oratOry with the euphemism reduced
to plain English. Such speeches may fire the
heart of an old Tory, but they cannot be regarded
as educational.
