EARLY Wednesday morning, the little
town of Shrcre, Ohio, was.the scene of one
ofthose terrible railroad accidents and holo-
causts that will continue to occur 80 long
as railroad cars are constructed and heated
as at present. An express train coming
East on the Ft. Wayne road ran into a
freight going West, and which should
have been on the siding. The broken cars
were piled on top Of each other in a great
mass, several people were killed outright,
and the mass of kindling wood took fire,
and several injured and helpless people in
the wreck were burned to death.

Sensible Labor Leaders.

The fool labor leaders order strike first,
estrange employers and employed, infame
passion, inspire violence, and then, when
defeated, howl for arbitration or confer
ence.
The sensible labor leader was pointedly
illustrated in this city by Chief ARTHUR,
Of the locomotive engineers. He did not
talk about strike; he talked only of the
precise points Of dispute and weighed them
dispassionately. When he understood
them, he sought President MCLEOD, con-
fsrred with him in q manly way, and as
both wanted to do what they believed to
be right, they agreed In few minutes and
separated sincerely respecting each other.
The fool labor leader would have de-
manded the restoration Of all the several
dismissed engineers. regardless Of merit,
and The fool labor employer would have
refused to reinstste any. As neither the
labor leader nor the labor employer in this
case was fool, the engineers who were
justly entitled to be restored were recalled
to duty, and those who were not 70 enti-
tied remained dismissed. When two SEN
sible men came face to face with the facts,
they found that they had no ground what
ever for dispute.
The action Of the organization of Loco
motive Engineers in the recent dispute
with the Reading should be accepted by
all labor leaders as an object lesson worthy
Of careful study and constant imitation
Had Chief ARTHUR been SWEENEY, there
would have been Q strike, probably re-
newsl Of violence and scores Of honest and
competent Brotherhood engineers would
have been remanded to idleness while
others rose to their places; but the SwEEs-
EYs don't thrive when the ARTHURs are
about, Just as the bats must hide when the
eagles are around, and the lesson of Read
ing Is that sensible, manly labor leaders
and labor employers never create labor

Out For Protection.


Geo. Ticknor Curtis, the celebrated
Constitutional lawyer, has addressed the
paper named below, as follows:
RIcHYrHLp SPRINGS, Sept. 10, 1892.
To the Editor of the American Economist;
SrR-In common with many other DEM
ocrats, cannot follow the leaders of the
party in denouncing Republican protection
q fraud upon the labor of the great maj
ority of the American people for the beni-
fit of the few; nor can 1 subscribe to the
doctrine that protective tariff is uneon-
stitutional. I have no pecuniary interest
in manufactures, but know what protec-
ton las done and is doing for this country.
If it operates for the benefit of the few,
am not one of that few. / am one of the
many; one of the great majority benefited
by it, including those who denounce it for
the cake Of obtaining political power.
If the leaders of political party, assem-
bled in national convention for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates for the Pres
idency and Vice Presidency, choose to
stultify themselves by falsifying history,
they cannot expect to be followed by 9TH
ers who have any habits of independent
thought and action.
/ Icannot, at the bidding of these gentle
men, unlearn the lessons of my whole life.
The greater part of my long life has been
passed in the study Of American political
history and constitutional law. IT l can
not claim to be an authority on such sub
jects, can point out to others the true
sources from which to devise interpreta-
tions of the Constitution. Those sources
are not to be found in recent congressional
speeches, whether made by members OF
one party or another. They are to be
found In the interpretations given to the
Constitution by the First Congress, by
washington's administration, and by the
succeeding administrations of Jefferson,
Madison, John Quincy Adams and jack
son.

Senator Gallagher appeared be-

SutrO Way Revive.

Since the burning of the Eureka
mill the ore from the Con. Virginia
mine is being worked in the Nor
gan mill at Empire. This is a
steam mill, and it has not the ca
pacity that the Eureka had, and
consequently cannot handle all the
ore coming from the mine. Meth
err can the ore be worked as cheap
ly at the Moagan. These facts have
caused rumors to the effect that a
mill may possibly be built at Sutro
and the ore taken out through the
tunnel. This method of extraction
and transportation would be much
cheaper than any other, and in a
short time would save the price OF
the construction of a mill. Such
a move would no doubt lead to
other mines than the Con. Virginia
shipping ore through the tunnel,
and in time number of mills
might be at work at this place and
Sutro. We hope the rumor may
have some foundation.

EUREKA MILL BURNED.
The Loss n Hundred Thousand Dol
Iars-A small TaiIings Mill Will
Probably he Built ON the Old site.


The Eureka mill, four miles up
the Carson river from this place,
was totally destroyed by fire early
last Monday morning. The fire is
supposed to have originated in the
ore house from the explosion of a
lamp. A high wind was blowing
at the time and the flames quickly
spread throughout the entire build
ing. The men made determined
effort to subdue the flames but had
to give up when their hose was
burned in twain.
The mill is a total loss. 1t cost
about $250,000, being built in 1870
when materials were high. The
loss is not far from $125,000. The
amount of insurance is not known,
but is supposed to be about $4,000.
The superintendent residence, the
boarding house and the cabins oc-
cupied by the mill men were saved.
The company always has a large
quantity of quicksilver on hand
and fortunately this was stored in
a safe place, and little or none of
it was lost.
The mill paid taxes last year on
$4,000. The loss to Lyon county
will, therefore, be quite heavy as ii
cuts off about five per cent. of its
revenue.
The Eureka was the second larg-
est quartz mill in the State II
had sixty stamps and capacity o.
240 tons of ore a day. AT the time
of the fire it was running on Con
Virginia ore. The railway from
the slum reservoirs had just beer
completed and the mill would soor
have been running on tailings al
well as ore, of which there is {
large quantity on hand. 1t vii
probably never be rebuilt in it
former proportions, although it il
reasonable to suppose that par
mill be constructed to work up thu
tailings, which are valuable.
A number of Dayton people were
thrown out of employment by thu
burning of the mill, and the loss
to our little village will amount tt
over 5000 cash per month. 1t is
hoped that the Rock Point mill al
this place may now be started up
