Has Level Head .


A friend Of W. L. Green. who resides
at the National Military Home, Leav-
enxortb, discloses a pretty level head
when it comes to talking about news
papers and mayors. In a recent letter
20 Mr. Green he says:
Iwas enrapturei with The CHIEF
TAIx. Ii is nice. newsy paper IN
deed. The thrift and intelligence OF
your people which its columns evince,
constrain me to avow that were l in
your midst and one OF You, l should
compare with some at least. as veri-
table mediocre. The most pungent
and TO me, pleasing paragraph, to be
found ia its contents, is that convey
ing the intelligence Of l. l.. Cruich-
field elected 10 the Office o. MAJOR. Ee
is indeed, without a peer. But the
honor does not wholly belong 10 Lee,
simply because the electors heaped
honor upon themselves anu their city
by unanimously choosing an honest,
earnest and capable man to dignity
the highest Office within the eft Of the
city.
He was no less popular in Texas ff-
teen yesrs ago than he is to-day in the
town Of Viniia. ! hope that, at the
conclusion Of his present incumbency,
he may merit and receive the univer-
sal praise Of an unbrOken and unaai-
nous constituency. and that they may
exclAim with one accord. "Well done

any such intention, although they were
unable to adequately explain the APP
pearance of these words, or to show how
they could have any other effect 1t is now
stated that the managers of certain lines,
attempted to prevent the negotiability OF
the new bills, in order to shut out Western
shippers with small capital from the export
trade in grain and provisions and to enable
the big shippers to control that traffic.
When leading managers disavowed the pur-
pose of making the bills non-negotiable, the
purpose was defeated, and the corporate
combination to establish the new bill went
to pieces.
This report, which accords with such facts
as are known to the public, puts the effort
to make shippers abjure their common law
rights and to concentrate traffic in an espe-
cially obnoxious light. 1t is matter of
public congratulation that it has been de-
feated by the firm stand Of the shippers
against it.

TO REAT Mckinley.

The nomination OF Hon. William Nc
Kinley by the Republicans of his district,
last week, calls renewed attention to the
gerrymander by which district of most eI-
traordinary shape was created simply for
the purpose of putting that popular and
able Republican Congressman in district
where there would be a large majority
against him, and to his acceptance of the
fight handicapped by that great disad-
vantage.
The partisan and unfair acts committed
by Republicans have occupied public at
tention to considerable degree of late, and
The DISPATCH has expressed itself fully
on those abuses of partisanship. But the
whole story would not be told, ii it was not
pointed out that here is an act of Democratic
partisanship as glaringly unfair as anything
that the Republicans can do. IT is no de-
tense for the Democrats that Republicans
have gerrymandered congressional districts.
The wrong of one party does not justify the
wrong of another, and when the wrong is
done simply for the purpose of killing off an
able and spotless leader of the opposing
party, it is peculiarly wanton and offensive
display of the meanest partisanship.
No other meaning can be attached to the
gerrymander against which Mr.. Mckinley
must contend in this canvass. No consider
alton of compactness of territory or conven-
ience of communication had any weight in
shaping his district. a district of generally
contiguous territory might have been framed
which would have been doubtful except for
Mr.. McKinIey's strength and popularity.
But that was not enough for the Democratic
gerrymanderers: and so they constructed a
district stretching half way across the
State solely for the purpose of ensuring his
defeat
1t is plain to every unprejudiced mind
that to defeat Republican leader by such
means will be no credit to the Democrats.
On the other hand, if he succeeds in over
coming the Democratic majority created
against him it will be crushing rebuke to
to the gerrymanderers. 1t is to be hoped
that such rebuke may be administered.

PITTsBURG. MONDAY. SEPT. !, 1890
FACTORY INSPECTION.

The interview with Mr.. William Martin,
published in our local columns to-day, on
the operation of the factory inspection law,
contains considerable food for reflection in
connection with that measure.
The point taken by Mr.. Martin that In
the vast manufacturing district of Allie
gheny county there is not even an assistant
inspector, is certainly cogent one. 1t
would seem to be indisputable that conn.,
munity so distinctively manufacturing, at
least one inspector thoroughly acquainted
with the city and versed in local knowledge
should be employed in seeing that the re-
quirements of the law are complied with.
The examples which Mr.. Martin gives of
the incomplete enforcement of the law are
not surprising under such circumstances.
1t would not be strange, in the absence OF a
resident inspector, if there were more cases
vet unknown, in which its provisions con-
cernlng child labor are entirely ignored.
Mr.. Martin also makes an important
criticism of the law, in the fact that its
definition of a factory as employing ten or
more persons, permits an evasion OF its pro-
vision by some concerns which keep just
nine children at work without regard to its
requirements. That however, is a subject
for future legislation. The full enforcement
OF the law as it stands is an object to which
everyone will assent; and if such enforce
ment does not secure all that is hoped for,
an amendment of its provisions can be
called for.
Certainly, when legislation of the character
of the factory inspection law has been
passed, the utmost pains should be taken
TO see that its enforcement is adequate and
vigorous.

PAID BOSTON A VISIT.
Ex. President and Mrs. Cleveland Pass
Through tho City on Friday.

Ex- President md Mrs. Cleveland Pass
Through tho City on Friday.
From the Boston Herald,j
Whether it was simply to get his hair cut and
shampooed that brought ex-President Grover
Cleveland to Boston on Friday is not known
for a surety, but 1t is known for a certainty
that he stayed hardly longer time than was
necessary to have that duty attended to.
Without any previous announcement, he, with
Mrs. Cleveland and her mother, Mrs. Perrine,
drove up to the Hotel Vendome in a
private carriage little before noon,
coming from Marion, where they have
been spending the past few days.
The party took possession Of the rooms known
as suite l." which are Colonel Greenleafs own
particular apartments. After resting for short
time Mr.. Cleveland presented himself before
the barber of the Vendome, settled his rotund
form comfortably in the chair, and intimated
that it was his desire to have his locks shorn
The operation seemed to please Mr.. Cleveland
for he beamed complacently on his reflection
in the mirror, and remarked that the weather
was changing
After leaving the barber shop he partook Of
a light luncheon with Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs
Perrine having gone out for drive with Mrs.
Burnett of Deerfoot Farm. When Mrs. Per-
rlne returned, a carriage was ordered and the
party left the hotel to take the o'clock train
for New York. The ex-President had no
formal calls made upon him during his stay,
and he endeavored to let it be understood that
his flying "trip to Boston was a casual one and
that no political business was to be attended TO-

AN APPALLING TOTAL.

The statistics just published by the Inter-
State Commission, on the casualties of rail-
way employees furnish a most impressive
argument in favor of the adoption of every
device known to decrease the hazards of life
and limb to those engaged in railroad work.
From this report it seems that the total
number of railway employees killed during
the year was i, ,973, while the injuries reached
the appalling total of 10000. This aggie-
gate of $4,000 casualties involving injury
to.life or limb, shows the hazards of rail-
way work and the necessity of lessening
them. While people may differ as to the
equity of some of the steps adopted by the
railway labor organizations, all will agree
that every railway which fails to adopt the
fullest safeguards for its men should be held
to the strictest liability.

DEATH AND RELIGION.
Curious Transformation of n Young Mans

Curious Transformation of n Young Mans
Nature.
BALTIMORE, August 81.-Charles Edgar
Saunders, aged Is, is lying dangerously i'll at
his residence, North Calhoun street, with a
very curious case of hysterIa. On Wednes-
day last Harry Abbott was killed on the Bal
timore and Potomac Railroad in a tunnel
near Fulton avenue station. Harry Abbott
was friend of Charles Saunders, and the
death was a great shock to Saunders. On the
night of the day Abbott was killed young
Saunders attended revival meeting ana be-
came very much wrought up over religion.
Near the end of the meeting he thought he felt
his dead friend lay hand on his arm. 1t was
more than his nerves could stand, and he went
off IN convulsions. After being removed to his
home the convulsiOns subsidized. and queer
change came over him. At times be thought
he was dog, and would bark violently and try
to bite anyone who came near him. This only
lasted for a short time, when he began to new
like cat and try to scratch.
A reporter called to see him. He was sitting
in an easy chair at the front window. He
shook hands and conversed quite nationally.
The spasms have not been SO frequent for the
last "a hours, but when he Is seized with con-
yulsions it takes four or five men to hold him.
His appetite continues good, and there is MOTH
ing to Indicate hydrophobia. The physicians
think he will recover. and that it Is greatly
aggravated case OF hysteria, superinduced by
the loss of his friend and by religious excite
ment. No effort is made by the doctors to pre-
vent him from eating whatever he wants.

IMPROVING THE POSTAL SERVICE,

The success of Postmaster Mexican in OBJ
tanning the improvement of the local postal
facilities, as stated in our local columns. is
marked and gratifying. The addition of "a
carri to the force, the establishment of
six deliveries in the business part OF town,
of three in the adjacent districts, of collec-
tion carts in the hill districts, and of three
new stations for the sale of money orders
and the registration of letters, shows what
can be done by a systematic and earnest
effort to increase the facilities of that i'm
pOrtant branch of the public service. Mr..
Mexican is comparatively new in The ad-
miuistration of the postofice; but he is
making a record of the most creditable
character. His energetic work in giving
the best postal facilities has been fully re-
sponded to by the Postmaster General; but
that does not detract from the credit due to
Mr.. Mexican.

THE WRONG SHOP.

A wELL-KNowN restaurant in Diamond al.
ley displays its daily bill OF fare on large
bulletin board. The price of each order is
placed in plain figures on the frame of the
blackboard When Pittsburg was a wicked,
dirty city, the "Aney" was lively little
tnoroughfare for the throng living by their
wits, many of whom took desperate chances on
the horses and laid their spare coin in the policy
writer's soft palm in the hope of hitting gig
in the 4-l1-44 game.
One morning, just as the bill of fare was be-
ginning to make some of the early birds feel
hungry meek and lowly stranger dropped in.
He did not call for a beer, but stationed him.
self before the appetizing board and gazed
longingly upon it. The barkeeper was busy
with his glassware and paid no attention to
the fellow. Soon the spell was broken by the
stranger exclaiming:
Say, mister, are those the numbers out this
morning?'
He thought the price list represented the
days first policy figures.
