A very bad railroad accident oc-
Cured on the Concord and Montreal
division of the B. and NJ, on Thurs
day morning last near Plymouth. The
fast train, known as the "cannon
ball'' train, which left Plymouth early
in the morning collided with an ap-
preaching freight train, both running
rapidly. The accident occurred on
curve where neither engineer saw
the danger in season to slack his train
and the engines came together with
terrific force. One of the two engi-
neers and both firemen were killed
and some others were hurt, though
most of the passengers escaped. The
passenger train was not thrown from
the track, but the engines and many
freight cars were nearly destroyed.
The men on the freight train are sup
posed to be to blame for the accident,
as they were running on the time of
the other train.

The two parties may or may not
present contrast next year on the
oliver question. No prophet can
foretell how that will be. But unless
the Ethiopian changes his skin the
tariff will be as much the dividing
line in 1896 as it was in 1892. No other
issue can obliterate that line, unless
the Democrats are prepared to make
surrender, which is not
likely. Chicago Inter Ocean.

The imports of merchandise for the
II months ending June 3Oth, 1895, were
1871, 800. .319; those for the preceding
year were $654, ,994, ,622. There was an
increase of $76, ,965, ,697, or III per
cent. This increased import lay en-
tirely in the dutiable merchandise;
1898, ,72O, 1892 in 1895, and 1915, 199, ,O86 in
free of duty differed in two years by
about $16, 100000. The transfer of
sugar from the free to the dutiable
side in great part accounts for this
difference; but the certainty of duties
in 1895 has encouraged imports, while
the uncertainty in 1894 was an effect
ual encouragement. In 1894 the ex-
ports Of domestic merchandise were
valued at 1868, ,2O4, ,937; in 1895, S793,-
553,018. Including exports $75, 5,651,-
918, or nearly the same amount as was
gained in the imports. Including ex-
ports of foreign merchandise, the to-
tai trade of 1895 was 81, ,539, ,653, $50, or
SS,OOO,O00 less than the total commerce
of 1894. The very large excess of ex-
ports over imports, which was shown
at the end of 1894, s237, ,145, $50. was
not repeated, for the excess of ex-
ports in 1885 was only SO, ,732, ,942.
Less food was imported in 1895 than
in 1894, more raw materials for do
mestic industries, more partly manu-
factured articles, and more manufac-
lures for consumption. Allowing for
the disturbance due to the tariff con-
test, this showing may be taken as
evidence of rising Industrial move
ment, and no more general index of
economic condition can be found.

Omaha is having a great deal of

lice commissioners were elected, one
sympathizing with the A. P. A. move
ment and the other with its antago-
nists. The A. P. A. have working
majority in the city council and are
decidedly on top at present. Last
week the district court issued an in
junction restraining the council from
approving the bonds of the commits
sioners, but the council ignored the
Injunction and the whole will proba-
bly, be determined by the supreme
court. There have been rumors of
violence, but nothing more serious
than war of words has thus far re-
suited.

California has been taking the lead
of late in great engineering enter
prises Mention has been made of
the great electric plants at Sacra-
mento and Folsom, and it is now an
nounced that nearly 10000 acres of
the best agricultural land in Cali
fornia will soon be irrigated fromthe
big f1ume connected with the dam
and tunnels constructed near

a capacity of 476, ,OOO, 900 gallons day,

square miles of farms the beneht OF

Electricity is relieving city horses
of drudgery, and the agricultural
journals are looking forward to the
time when electric wires will reach
out to the farms to do the pumping,
threshing, churning, chopping, light
ing, and eventually the plowing and
hoeing. Already an electric plow has
been tested in Germany and is found
to perform it's work well, though not
quite so cheaply, in this first expert
ment, as man and horses. The
farmer in the course of time will
probably have the choice Of getting
his electrical power from central
stations, neighboring streams or
wind wills. When this happens it is
likely that there will be return drift
of population from the cities to the
country.

The report of Major Teter, Indian
ton is likely to be an impartial judge,
confirms the impression that the
trouble between the Bannock Indians
and the white settlers is one of the
latter's own making; and that the In
dians who were fined $75 each for kill
ing game, and afterwards shot while
trying to escape, were simply murder
ed. The right to hunt was specially
granted the Indians by their treaty
with the United States, but the set
tiers who have pushed them to the
wall wish to deprive them of it be-
cause it interferes with their personal
gains.
The bitter feeling toward the Ind
ians which exists among the white
settlers is evidently identical with the
natural Indignation of the wolf at the
lamb. The slaughter of six unarmed
Indians has reused their vindictive
brethren to fury; hence the present
beleaguerment of the whites in jack
sons Hole-a name which for the
sake of euphony might be altered to
Cleveland's Cavity, if the inhabitants
did not feel their dignity lowered by
the change. OF course the final tri
umph Of the whites is assured in the
order of nature, thereby affording an
other illustration of the survival of
the fittest. But when we reflect that
in this second century of dishonor, a
treaty sanctioned by the United
States government has been deliber-
ately broken by it's citizens, and that
six unarmed men were ruthlessly shot
down for what was practically no Of
fence at all, it seems to be in order to
ask who are the vages?-Reporter.
