Shall the Green ne Placed Asev. IN. ne,
. on Auaertcan R~ailroaaaO

There IL considerable discussion among rail-
road men Just now over a proposed change in
tho signals generally In use on American rail-
roads for the guidance Of engineers. Z . re-
cent meeting Of engineers in Chicago II was de-
termined to agltate for a change from the e1-
listing rules.
Where a red llqht is displayed on the line Of
an American railroad II means that there IL
danger ahead. and, under the regulations Of
most roads. an engineer getting this signal stops
the train until either II IL removed or another
signal Is displayed, or until the signal is given
by the train dispatcher TO proceed. The green
signal means caution. The white signal means
all clear ahead. The objection to the use of
white lights is q double one-hrst that they are
too common, and second. that they are untrust-
worthy, for, aa railroad men point out, II n red
lantern IL broken the light shown becomes .
the passengers upon Il may be imperilled by the
breaking OF u piece of glass.
As railroad signals are not always distinguish
able from ordinary lights. American engineers
have come generally to disregard the white sig
nails entirely. and to look out merely for a red
signal. the absence of which they take TO be
proof OF security. Those who are agitatinR for
p change desire to see introduced here the
English system. which differs from The Ameri-
can in this: That the English use an amber
clear The proposition is to use a green light
on American railroads to indicate that all 10
well. while n red signal light will continue to

complies change OF the signal service on Amer
lean railroads would cost $1,000, 900, and most
of the railroad corporations. now curtailing ex-
penses, do not give very hearty approval to the
engineers' plan at this time.

PATRIOTISM, NOT MONEY.

The men who saved the Union
and took their pay in greenbacks
never questioned their soundness.
Iona, mich. Sentinel.
Yes, that's true; but we are sorry
to sgy that many of the old vets
have been led to believe that the
money that was good enough to
pay them for being shot at, is not
good enough for them to use in
everyday business affairs.-ColfaX
Advocate, (populist.)
The Advocate certainly has a
mistaken idea on the subject if it
thinks for a minute that it was the
money that prompted the old sol
diers to stand up and receive the
enemy's fire. No, sir, it was patriot
ism, and the money was not a con-
sideration. If we thought it was
our respect for the veteran would be
greatly diminished. We don't
think the motives of the old soldiers
should be impugned for political
reasons,

SOMEBODY IS THE LOSER.

Much has been said as well as
written in favor of free trade. The
country or nation that exports
more than they import are gamers.
A country or nation that imports
more than the export ale losers.
If some country or nation gain 1t Is
at the expense or loss of another
country or nation. 1t will be seen,
therefore, that free trade cannot be
justified, except as to articles the
country or nation cannot produce,
for it is clear to any mind that the
expense of transportation must and
does fall upon the producer. If a
country or nation imports any ar
ticle that it is capable ofproducing,
it is evident that there is lack Of
help, energy or money. To illus
trate our views we will only refer
to wool and WOODEN goods; First
Can we produce a home supply?
Yes. Second-Have we the ener-
gv? Yes. Third.-Haye we the
help? We may not have it, but
we could supply it in a very short
time. Fourth.-Have we the mon
ey? Yes.
Does it not therefore seem reas-
enable that we should produce the
wool and manufacture it, thereby
giving employment to our own peo-
pie, who in turn would consume
the farmers produce, and thus not
only keeping onr money at home,
but thereby save transportation on
what we import, as we'll as On what
we export to feed the workmen in
foreign countries.
The whole question of protection
rests upon the question of labor. If
we desire our la borers and mechan-
les to work for the same wages as
they do in foreign countries, we of
course can compete with those coun-
tries, and that of itself would shut
out imports. Thank the Lord,
there prevails a sentiment among
us that manly man may be a
farmer, laborer or a mechanic as
well as one in any other station in
life. Do we propose toprotect labor?
If we do, we must protect its prod
nets, for certain it is the products
of our laborers are produced in 9th
er countries by labor system that
would at once bring our country on
level with the serf system of des :
potic countries.-Farmer and Stock

If the American patriots were
justified in the throwing off the
English yoke, then the Cubans have
an equally justifiable cause in
breaking loose from Spain. Cuba
should be free, and England should
not be allowed to purchase it.

WHY should not the United
States recognize the Cuban insur-
gents? We are certainly under no
obligations to Spain, as that coun-
try was one of the first to "recog-
nize,' officially, the confederacy
during the civil war. Spain's sym
pathy was manifestedIy with the
confederacy in the SOS, and the
sympathy of the United States is
clearly with the Cubans. If rec
ignition" will aid them in their
cause for liberty, then let MS recog-
nize. The same may be said in re-
gard to the England Venezuela
matter.
