DONATION OF PUBLIC LANDS

The Sun reyives the idea Of the govern
ment turning over all the public lands to
the states in which they are located. This
is a question which has already been agi
tated. but it presents a broad ground
upon which all newspapers Of the Rocky
Mountain region, regardless Of politics.
may stand shoulder to shoulder. So far
as the general government is concerned
the gift would be a triAinR one, but wedo
not know OF anything which would tend
to put the new states upon a better 6nan-
cal basis. Texas is an example OF what
can be done by a state which owns its
public lands. Such a condition insures not
only great revenues but the best utilizalian
aud highest Development Of f'sNH mi
insures stability in all state gay 9ould
affected by it and development Of all their
resources Even Nevada might yet be
saved were this scheme resorted to.
Strong state governments make a strong
federal government. Nothing could con
tribute more to the prosperity of the
Western states than the donation to them
of ali of the public lands within their
boundaries

Perhaps the most destructive wreck both in
life and property ever known in the history
Of the Western North Carolina railroad oc-
crrred at Melrose Station. at the southern side

The injured are: G. Boweock, hagman, leg
broken; George Ricketts,, conductor, injuries
not serious, escaped by jumping; William
Hoe, fireman, sligbtinjuries escaped by jump
ing; two eolored brakemen named Foster and
Greenlee, painful but not dangerous wounds.
From the apex Of Saluds Mountain TO Mel
rose, the scene of the accident, distance of
less than three miles, there's fall Of fully coo
feet. This fact has made the railroad authori-
ties specially careful at this point, and an en-
CINE is kept constantly there to helpall trains
up and down the mountain.

started down, and, soon after beginning the
descent, ii became evident that " loaded cars
were to much for both engines 10 hold with all

tracks spread and the entire train plunged

lies and earth the brave fellows who had stood
TO their posts.

Where Bowling is Universal

l used to tell my Dutch friends that
their politeuess begins and ends with a
bow, says writerin the Domestic Monthly.
Everybody bows; nobody mods, and
touching Of the hat is unknown. You
bow to every one you may have met when
calling on friend, for callers meeting
are introduced. You give an order to a
gardener or workman, and he takes of
his hat with bow which would not
bring discredis on duke. Every one
bows on passing house where they visit.
I often used to amuse myself by watching
behind curtain to see every second man
take off his hat to the window, it being
quite immaterial whether any of the fam
lily are visible or not; and every second
lady makes a polite bend of the whole
body, not mere inclination of the head,
as our ladies do. Everybody bows. Men
take off their hats to each other, trades
men do the same to all their customers.
A well-known lady is bowed to by all her
fathers, husbands, or brothers friends,
and any gentleman, knowing lady il
STAYING at house where he visits, will
bow to her. l even had bowling ac-
quaintance with student whom l never

where he lived, and there he was, grown
into a man, bowling still. For some
months we had quite lively bowling ac-
Guaintance, and there it ended, as afore-
time. / must, however, include 'scom-
