CnrhOndalc Trolley Car Runs Down Two
Women Near Dcvanncy's Bricgc.
A distressing trolley accident oc-
Cured near Delanney's bridge, below
Carbondale, at 10 o'clock last night, by
which a woman's foot was crushed so
badly as to make amputation neces-

Lizzie Gilmartin and her sister We're
going homeward from Carbondale.
The noise made by an ontario and
Western train passing over the bridge
drowned the clang Of the bell on the
trolley car going south and which was
fast bearing down upon the two wo-
men. The sister heard the warning in
time to escape injury, but Miss Gill
martin was run down and her foot
was badly crushed. The car was guild
ed by Motorman Patrick Walsh.
The traction company officials urged
that the unfortunate woman be taken
in a car to the Emergency hospital, in
Carbondale. but the young woman's
relatives would not give their consent
and she was removed to her home.

Der of the hospital daily bill OF fare that

are unfortunate inmates in that very
building whose sufferings are enhanced
by the cramped and unsanitary condi-
tion surrounding them. The money can
be better spent IN increasing the accom-.
modations of the hospital.
If necessary, build cottage on the
grounds at the public expense for DR..
Barber and his family to occupy. Then
possibly the doctor could be persuaded TO
move out of the maternity ward and per-
nit that space TO be again devoted to
purposes and objects for which it was
built. If this was done 1t would be an
act Of humanity to suffering women.
Really tho truth is, DR.. Barber should
at once yacate the maternity ward. 1T out
of his $3.50 salary, paid each month from
the county treasury, he cannot hnd
enough to pay house rent, subscription
could be started to raise the amount. 1t
would be monsy contributed to good

COVERED BY CHARITY

OF the $3.50, 900 which has been ex-
pended during the past four years OF The
money gathered from the taxpayers Of
Los Angeles county to sustain the coun-
tv.hospital, how much has gone to pur-
chase pate de fol gras, plckled walnuts,
shrImps and delicaces of like character
for the superintendent and his family?
This is pertinent inquiry. IL it right
to spend the money OF the people f5r ar
ticles OF this character and then charge
the amount TO charity? Is it right to ex-
pend the public funds in order to cater to
the epicurean tastes OF an official already
overpsid for his services? The board of
supervisors have done this. 1t is some
thing that would not for moment be
permitted at the soldiers home, which
il sustained by the funds of the national
government. Money of the taxpayers of
Los Angeles county should not b. ex,
pended in giving to Superintendent Bar.

HOMEOPATHIC WOOL GROWERS

A striking illustration OF how little
some people know about the real pur
poses and effects of protective tariffs was
given at the annual meeting of the Wool
Growers association,in Washington this
week. President William Lawrence OF
ONO, in a lengthy address, bewailed the
depressed condition of the wool industry
and charged it to the placing OF wool on
the FREQ list by the Wilson bill. Other
mem bers Of the association thought in
the same direction, and it was decided to
appoint q com mittee to move upon con-
gross and ask for relief. Not by re-
enactment OF the Mckinley wool sched-
ule, for that, the association thought,
was not high enough; but a tariff that
shall be away up, far above the Hottest
notch OF Mcklnl eyism.
A few days ago The Herald editorially
explained that the Mckinley high duty
actually lowered the price of American
wool by making the cost of imported
woods required to mix with our own
product 50 great that manufacturers
could not afford to buy them, The ugh
unable to make anything but shoddy
goods without them. sHence there was
little demand and consequently low
price for our homegrown woods. Bot
wool growers with protectionism on the
brain and wool pulled over their eyes
never see more than one side of the
question, and that is the special privilege
side. During the campaign of 1892. when
American wool under the Mckinley re-
ssirction law was lower than it had ever
been before. thousands OF wool growers
were Literally denouncing the law, and
thousands who were not Democrats voted
for Cleveland purely on account of the
wool question. Now they want hair, and
lots of it,, from the same protection dog
that had been biting them for three years
prior to the enactment OF the Wilson bill.
Evidently such men belong in the hon.
eopathic school OF politics, and when
they march In campaign professions next
summer they should carry banners bear
ing the we'll known homeopathic in
acription: "Similia similibus curantur."
1t was stated at the Washington meet
ing that the placing OF wool on the free
list had caused a loss of $780, 400, 900 to the
wool growers OF the United States. If this
be true, there is one blessed consolation
growing out of it. What the wool gruw-
ers lost the people, as whole, have
gained, or rather, have saved. The wool
gorwers are very respectable class of
men OF course but they are a mighty
small percentage OF the total population Of
the United States. Why should every
body else be tariff-taxed for the special
benefit of a few sheep rasers? Why
should any person or class ever be taxed
by the government to and some other
person or class? Where does government
get the moral right to bolster up some
body's private business by assessing the
people at large? If government has such
right, then why should 1t limit its pater-
nal care to the nursing of a few ind us
tries, " hen there are amounted thousands
OF equally meritorious private enterprises
which have TO STAND or fall without
government assistance.
No answers based on common sense and
justice have ever been given to questions
like these. nor can protectionism furni sh
such answers.
