INDICTMENT OF RAILROAD DI-
RECrORS.

The president and directors of the
Maryland Central railroad have been
indicted for manslaughter before the Cir
cuit Court OF Harfor county, Md. This
indictment grows out Of TIE trest!e dis
aster or that line a few weeks ago, in
which three men lost their lives. The
casually is supposed to have resulted
from the rotting Of tlmbers in the tres
tie, and the n minagers are held liable be-
fore the court for maintaining a danger
GUS roadway.
Following the arrest Of CHAUNCEY NJ
DEPEW and other directors of the Fourth
Avenue tunnel disaster this iuciaent in
dicates that there is growing sentiment
among the peDpl4 that directors of rail
roads must bear the responsibility for
railroad accidents when they allow a
rotten bridge, an uulighted tunnel or
unsafe masonry to remain on their road.
| Failure TO provide sound bridges and
safe equipment upon every part Of the
road is criminal negligence upon the
part of the directors.
There is perhaps 10 other way to Sc
cure the utmost care upon the part OF
| the directors than to make them person
ally liable for accidents. It is in some
cases hard rule, but the life and safe
ty of every passenger is of such value
that it is the duty of the State and the
| courts to prevent accidents which are
not the result of the providence of Sod
or the kings enemies" 1t is more i'm
portant to the public that security and
safety are guaranteed to life than that

State is not only protecting the lives @
the people, but at the same time advanc

II -retofore The farmers and working
men, who made up the great majority of
the Cincinnati Convention, have been
acting sympathetically aud enthusias-
tically with the very party that is re-
sponsible for all the oppressive legisla-
tion that has been placed on the statute
books since the war. They have sup.
ported the Republican party through
thick and thin, the politicians taking
advantage Of their pref judice against the
South to lead them to their own undo
ing. Bat now these people have had
their ey,s opened. The Alliance leaven
has worked wonders among them. They
have been brought to their senses. They
are engaged in a revolt against the Re
publican party, and they propose to call
it to account in {. summary way.

ANOTHER Ola Grippe" season has

ANOTHER ola Grippe" season has
about ended It's rayages and
thousands of people, young aud old,
in good health and in poor health,
have succdmbed TO the dread disease
and are numbered in the mortality
list. Two seasons of "La Grippe"
have set people to thinking that there
is something to Se dreaded besides
consumption ana diseases of that
nature. ala Grippe" cuts down peo'
pie in the vigor of their lives with
the ease aud rapidity of mower
over a meadow. Could a siege Of
smallpox have been worse than the
siege Of ola Grippe" which has just
made itself so felt in all parts Of the
land? 1t is to be doubted if people
realize the desol" ton that follows in
the trail of ola Grippe" Thousands
died in one city in only thirty days.
The disease has not borne the odious
character that cholera, smallpox,
anc yellow fpver have, but probably
because its real nature has not been
known. II it continues its rayages
az it has the past two years it
certainly will become one Of the
diseases that may well frighten
whole communities and be handled
with as much yigor as is yellow
fever now.

THE TRIBUNE's assertion that

of the Woman's Relief Corps
would be of more than ordinary
merit was verified beyond the least
quibble. Miss Jessie Osborne, the
elocutiouist from Chicago, fully sus-
tanned the renour that preceded her.
Everyone Of the large audience was
delighted nth her renditions, and
specially charmed by her wonderful
posing performance. Of the parts
which home talent took in the
entertainment favorable comment is
general, particularly the singing by
the three little sisters, Lenore, Joe
aud Madge Jacka, who were cheered
to the echo and deseryedly. The
pleasing program which the ladies
thus provided fully entities them to
the liberal patronage which they re-
ceiyed, and now they have shown
speh aptuess in that direction, it is
hoped that it will not be years
