NEEDED LEGISLATION.

The wrecking of passenger train on
the New York Central railroad near
Rome, in that State, and the frequent
recurrence OF such outrages in various
parts of the country, demand that
special &C ton be taken by the various
State legislatures and the national Con
g-ess in liking q punishment proper
tionate to the enormity of such crime.
AS far as Is known. there are no special
statutes in any of the States dealing
with trainewrecking, and the severast
punishment generally melted out to such
offenders is imprisonment.
This is serious omission upon the part
OF the lawmakers OF the country. The
train wrecker is blscker and more des-
picable than the assassin, since the
latter always selects his victim, or
victims, while the former for pelt and
plumber is willing to nurl hundreds Of
innocent people to horrible and sud-.
den deaths. In view OF the NUN eroua
awful tragedies of this character and
the comparatively slight punishment
melted to railroad wreckers Or those who
attempt the derailment of trains, the
legislatures OF all the States should
take the matter In hand and enact
special Gtatutes, making death the
penalty for such crimes. The claims of
society are imperative in this matter
and oughs to be no longer neglected.

stages, Time has proved that his assertion
was based ON facts gained trom experience.
His Golden Medical Discovery has cured
many thousand people in all parts Of the
