Preventable Railway Horrors.

It was to be expected that the multi
plication of excursion trains necessary
| to accommodate tho rush of travel te
the Worlds Fair would lead to tht
multiplication of railway accidents.
The crowding of excursion trains and
the crowding of the trunk lines with
extra trains could not introduce intt
the management of train service new
and unexpected contingencies which
would not arise under normal c0ndi.
tfons. But the increase in fatalities
from rear end collisions has been out
of all proportion to the increase in
travel, and many of the accidents have
certainly been of the p-oventable sort.
This was clearly the case with FRI
days collision on the Michigan Cen
trail Railway in the yard at jackson.
Mich, by which a score or moro of
passengers were killed and twice as
many more injured. The conditions
were simple and easy understood. The
first section of an excursion train from
the East was standing at the station
while portion of the passengers
breakfasted. The second section came
laundering along at forty-mile rate
and crashed into the rear end of the
standing section, reducing the cars to
kindling wood and killing or manning
a large number of those unfortunate
enough to have taken this particular
train on the sightseeing journey.
Assuming that the engineer of the
second section, who appears to have
paid for his blum Ter with his life, was
right in his statement that the accident
was due to the failure of the air-brake
ut the critical moment, the fact still
remains that the signal to halt should
have been much farther to the rear
than the entrance to the railway yard
at jackson. If a properly proportion
sigma. would have been displayed far
enough away to have enabled the en-
gineer to bring the train to a stand
still if every brake refused to work,
'or there is no heavy grade at this
point.

The Senate and the People.

Senator Dubois, of Idaho, has writ.
ten a letter to the Cincinnati Tribune
explaining his attitude in the silver de.
bate.
The senator says that the silver men
in the senate know that tie vast ma
jority of the American people demand
conviently increasing and continu-
ing issuance of money. The steadily
Increasing business, population and
needs of the country make an enlarg-
ing currency necessary. All parties,
national and stale, In their platforms
recognized this popular demand by
adopting planks favorable to silver.
Many states and one national party
demanded the free and UNI
limited coinage of silver. All state
and national conventions have declar-
ed in favor of silver, with various
No national or state
convention has even intimated that the
purchase and coinage of silver and is
suance of money should be stopped.
The unconditional repeal bill before
the senate violates every promise and
pledge made to the people, and cannot
be voted for by the friends of silver,
as it is known that the pres
ident, in the event of its passage, will
not favor any legislation favorable to
silver or an expansion of the currency.
Under these conditions the silver
senator's feel that it is their highest
duty to prevent unconditional repeal
and the disasters which would come to

the planters, farmers and wage-earners
t through contraction of the currency
They hold that the radical Legislation
contemplated by the majority in the
senate should first have the approval
of the people. Senator Dubois says:
If the question had been submitted
to the country and decided against sill
yer on such plain presentation of the
case as is now before the senate, the
judgment and will of the people would
easily be carried out. This talk about
minority controlling, of the ..palladiun
of liberty" being destroyed, etc., il
the veriest bosh. Whenever the wish
es of the people are clearly ascertained
and registered on any great question
affecting them, their verdict will be
enacted into law by the senate. I,my.
self, am strong believer in the pro
tective policy of the Republican party.
| / think tariff for revenue only will
cause great hardship to our people ,es'
pecially the wage-earners. My con.
as on silver. Yet the people passed
judgment in favor of a tariff for reve-
nue. only, and the senate. would not be
justified in opposition further than a
presentation of its views in moderate
debate. So with all questions. The
wishes of the people will be registered
by law. It took number of years, long
debates in congress, the submission OF
the question to the people in several
90 nm hot nr6v v0f n, of
protection was reached. Silver can
not and should not be eliminated and
it's coinage stopped without an order
from the people. No one contends
that that order has been given. When
it il given the silver advocates will
obey the mandate of the people. Un-
til it is, they will endeavor to protect
their expressed wishes and commands.
The position of the silver senators
requires no further explanation and
defense than is given in this admirable
letter. The senators who are oppos-
ing unconditional repeal under exist
ing conditions are simply standing on
the Democratic platform and carrying
out the will of the majority of the peo-
pie. They are clearly right in their
determination to consent to no radical
change in that platform until it is
changed by the popular verdict. This
is the situation, and the senators who
advocate the gold standard will find
that the country will hold them re-
sponsible for all the delay and uncer-
tainty of the past two months. They
have an opportunity of getting out of
their difficult and obnoxious position
by agreeing to compromise that will
recognize the just claims of silver and
give the country chance to be heard
from, and if they neglect it they will
find their countrymen arrayed against
Constitution.

Shylock's Bugaboo.

Our readers, are, no doubt, familiar
with the goldbug argument to the eff
feet that the free coinage of silver
means the single standard. GOLD
would go to premium and disappear,
they say. and then we should have the
single silver standard. While this
would not be true, since our mints
would still be open and available for
the coinage of gold, whether any came
to be coined or not, we propose never
theless, to give the goldbugs the full
benefit of their argument. We propose
to go with them as far as their asser-
tions and assumptions will carry them.
Let US suppose that the free coinage
of silver would bring the country to
the single silver standard-what then ?
"Why," says the goldbugs, is it posi-
BILE that you can contemplate without a
shiver the degradation of our civiliza-
ton to the level of that of the barbar-
Gus nations of the east? Look at India!
Look at China! Yes and look at Mex
ico!''
Well, let us look at India. That
country had the gold standard until
1885, and then adopted the single silv-
er standard. From 1885 to 1898 has
India made any progress in civilization,
or has the country been at a standstlll? ?
Has it made any progress of any sort?
The truth is that every step India has
taken in the direction of the develop
ment of her resources and in the en-
largement of her trade and commerce
has been taken under the single silver
standard.
Then suppose we look at Holland.
In 1850, Holland established its cur
rency on silver basis. Can it be said
since that time Dutch civilization has
retrogated? By way of surprising
themselves, the goldbugs should then
turn to Germany. In 1850, Germany
abolished the gold standard and went
upon a silver basis. conducting
its business under the silver standard
for twenty-three years. Did German
civilization retrograde from 1850 to
1873? Is it not true that that nation
conducted two wars successfully under
the single silver standard, overcoming
and dismantling the great French en-
pire? Is German civilization of high
er grade to-day than it was from 1857
to 1873?
And yet this is the great goldbug ar
gument-thatt the single silver standard
will degrade American civilization to
the level of that of India. This is the
of the Horace White and
Henry Willard school of financiers. It
is their last ditch, the trench in which
they take refuge when all their other
are disproved.
We know of no Democrat who desires
either the single gold standard or the
single silver standard, but all Demo-
Gratis and all free coinage men favor
the joint standard of both gold and
silver. Nevertheless, if there is to be
a choice between the two, the people
will much prefer the single silver
which will give them an en-
|arged currency basis as compared
with gold, and introduce prosperity
where there is now depression.
There is no bugaboo in the single |
silver standard to frighten anybody. |
and if the people are finally compelled
20 take one or the other--if they are
to choose between gold and |
;ilver-thev will take silver.-Atlanta
