Railroad Accidents are Due to
Greed.

In pro portion to the number tray
cling there are thirteen times as
many accidents i'll the United States
as in Germany, where government
ownership OF railways prevails, and
six or seven times as many accidents
to employees in proportion to the
total number. Aud no wonder
The first thing which attracts atten-
ton in Germany is the careful pro-
lection to life and limb. Accidents
of daily occurrance in Chicago are
an impossibility IN Berlin, city of
equal size. Contrast the efforts Of
the United States to save life as seen
in the truly admirable llfe-saving
service of our coasts with the con.
duct of those railway presidents who
rush to Washington and to state
capitals to prevent the passage of
laws to compel the railways to use
we'll known and approved safety ap-
pliances. 1t is claimed that, there
is greater freedom in the service of
vast corporations which manage nat
ural monopolies. And the freedom
of the employed may be still further
increased by better civil service reg
ulations. The nobility of public SER
vice is of Importance to the wage
earners Of every grade. The uniform
of government is an honor, while the
livery of private service is considered
badge Of inferiority. 1t is public
service which has developed the
great leaders of our civilization.
Private service could never give us
a Washington or Lincoln. Gov
ernment ownership implies use for
general social purposes, and not
merely exploitation for dividends

OF a colored voting population Of
certainly not more than 5000, 1900
should have been born in 1874t
This fraud is too apparent for any
thing. Even if the balance of the
registration is clean and honest, they
have over thousand illegal colored
voters on the list. Watson may
overcome even this fraud, but if he
does not Congress should seat him

In the Congret sional election last
year for the Tenth Georgia District,
Black, the Democratic candidate,
claimed $4,000 votes in Richmond
county, giving him maj ri y OF 1873
over Hon. 7. E. Watson, Populist.
Watson and his friends knew that
fraud had beon praotioed, and charged
it. After great deal of talk, Black
resigned his seat in Congress and the
election will be held again this fall.
The Georgia legislature passed a
new registration law last winter, and
it is thought to be better than the old
one. The new registration has been
completed and the total registration
for Richmond county is only 1900
against the $4,000 votes claimed by
the Democrats last year. This shows
that 10000 of the alleged vote last
year was fraudulent. Watson and
his friends charged that at least 49,
600 fraudulent votes were cast, or
counted, and this shows that they
were right.
But the new registration law has
not entirely discouraged the Augusta
scoundrels. The registration books of
that city,the county seat of Richmond
county, for this year conta MS the
names of exactly 1900 negroes who
are registered as coming of age this
year. Now isn't it strange that out

COL. INGERSOLL DENOUNCES
THEIR EXHIBITION.
ABUSES BISHOP CORRIGAN.
He Includes Cardinal Gibbons in
His Attacks and Expatiates
on ''a Theological
Fraud"

Robert q. lngersou asGonlshed
great many persons by attacking
Archbishop Corrigan vigorously in
his lecture in the Columbia Theatre,
Brooklyn, last week.
His lecture was entitled (Which
Way?" and was a general condensa-
ton Of views on theologians, in which
he went out of his way to make per-
sonal attacks.
"No intelligent person now b lieves
that devils inhabit the bodies of
men," he said. "No intelligent per-
son now believes that devils are try
ing to control the actions Of men.
No intelligent person now believes
that devils exist.
"And yet, at the present time, in
the city Of New York, Catholic
priests are exhibiting piece Of one
of the bones of ST. Ann, the supposed
mother of the Virgin Mary.
"Some of these priests may be
credulous imbeciles, and some may
be pious rogues. Ii they have any
real intelligence, they must know
that there is no possible way of prov
ing that the piece of bone ever be-
longed to St. Ann. And if they have
any real intelligence, they must know
that even the bones of st. Ann were
substantially like the bones Of other
persons, made OF substantially the
same material, and that the medical
and miraculous qualities of all human
bones must be substantially the
same.
SAYS THE FAITHFUL ARE DUPEs.
"And yet these priests are obtain,
ing from their credulous dupes thou
sands and 1housan Is of dollars for
the privilege Of seeing this bone and
kissing the box that contains the
sacred relic
"Archbishop Corrigan knows that
no one knows who the mother of the
Virgin Mary was that no one knows
about any of the bones of this I'M
kno IN mother; ne knows that the
whole thing is theological fraud
knows that his priests, OF priests
under his jurisdiction, are obtaining
money under false pretenses.
cardinal Gibbons knows the same,
but neither of these pious gentlemen
has one word to say against this
shameful crime.
"They are willing that priests, for
the benefit of the church, should
make merchandise Of the hopes and
fears of ignorant believers willing
that fraud, that produces revenue,
should live and thrive.
"rhis is the honesty of the theo-
Logan. If either of these gentlemen
should be taken sick, he would not
touch the relic, he would send for a
physician" IN. Y. Press.

possessed by DR.. Hall, an old clergy
man Of Princeton. y. j.. years ago.
At one time a difficulty had arisen in
tho Presbyterian Church at Cranberry.
The presbytery convened TO hear and
adjust the matter. They met at Gran.
berry. and the discussion became so
very hot that a good deal of unpleasant
feeling was d%iscernible in the tones
and faces Of those who were carrying
on the arguments. Just at the most
critical point old DR.. Hall rose TO pour
oil upon the troubled waters, as was
his invariable custom.
Mr.. Moderator" said he. in his gen.
tie voice. and with no suspicion Of o
smile on his fine face. Mr.. Moderator,
| rise to offer a resolution, which Ia

The effect was instantaneous: the
laugh came at just the right moment,
and the bitterness that had begun 10
gain ground was checked then and
there.
Another old New Jersey clergyman
Of the Presbyterian denomination was
Dominic Comfort, who was known as
a nan Of great drollery out of the pull
pit, as we'll as a 0 excellent preach

on one occasion the well-known DR..
Cannon. professor of theology and
church history in the Theological Sem
mary of the Reformed Dutch Church,
heard Dominic Comfort preach at
Kingston.

dinner. Il heard an old lady say this
morning that the dominie's sermon was
very comforting"

good brother replied the dominic. mod

hear OF comfort coming from a cannon's
