Some Ct the leading newspapers of the
country have been discussing the ques-
ton. should the press give both sides of a
controversy? and the arguments pro and
con are both able and interesting, One
would not have to 60 back very far to re-
call 2 time when there could have been no
such discussion. as the party papers
neVel thought of giving any space to their
opponents, even in the news columns.
We thought then, and think now, that a
newspaper should publish the news. and
that it should be liberal in its treatment
Of those who hold opposing views: but
should not permit what it grants as a
courtesy to be claimed as a right. The
neWspa. Ell is a private enterprise, but one
that appeals to tie public for support,
and if it does not treat the public fairly it
must fail, unless it has silver mine
owner behind it who can afford to paw fol
the continuance of an Improbable vent
ure.
The present discussion turns upon the
silver question, and the Springfield Re-
publican maintains that refusing so much
as hearing to the Bryanites lis nothing
less than menace to free speech, free
thought and pure Democracy The
same thing may as truly be said of the
Anarchists, or of any set of men who
might see fit to array themselves against
religion, good citizenship or the obser-
vance of laws. The New York Evening
Post takes opposite ground. 1t says:
To sum up, the reason why we are not
wiling freely to admit Bryanites to our
columns, is that we believe their plat
form to be from top to bottom irrational,
immoral and anarchistic. We believe the
triumph of the party would put an end
both to free speech and free thought.
would put all property in danger, would
make the United States, instead of glory
ami boast, one of the most conspicuous
OF human failures. would roll back the
tide OF civilization on this continent
would eXalt ignorance and folly above ex-
perience and knowledge, and would put a
premium on mendacity and injustice
This being so, it will be easily seen why
we do not disseminate tile views of the
party. In fact, to call them 'views'' at
all is a misnomer. They are the yawps
of ignorance and folly, and there is not
and ought not to be, place for them
IN any newspaper printed for intelligent
men and women.

The removal of Payson Tucker from
Maine Central was a surprise to every
body in Maine. He had been the mana
ger for y years, was widely recognized
as a railroad man of great ability, and
was popular alike with the public and the
employees of the road. The Maine Cen
trail was ''Payson fuckers road" The
only inference to be drawn from his re-
moval is that the road will cease to be
Maine institution and will be merely an
appendage of the Boston and Maine.

We know Of but one community in the
world where dyspepsia is practically un-
known, and that is the Shakers of Mount
Lebanan, N. Y. These good people have
more than hundred years, and that they
understand it pretty thoroughly, is evil
denced in the foregoing fact. Their Diges-
tive Cordial is the safest and best remedy in
cases of indigestion that we know of. A
trial bottle can be had through your drug
gists for the trifing sum of 10 cents.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial supplies the
system with food already digested, and at
the same time aids the digestion of other
foods. 1t will almost instantly relieve the
ordinary symptoms of indigestion, and no
sufferer need to be told what these are.

If there is any one thing needed in
Whssling above another, at this time, it
is a thoroughly well equipped and mod
ern ambulance.
The patrol wagon has been called into
requisition something like ten times
within the past five days TO transport
wounded people from the scene Of the
accidents to their places OF residence or
TO q hospital, and although the vehicle
is undoubtedly tremendous advance
overtime o,d-time method Of transport
ing sick and disabled people in express
wagons and hacks, i, is not at all suited
for the purpose. The objections to it
are many and important, but the lead
ing ones are that it almost jolts the life
out of sick or wounded man. its cOndi-
tion as 10 cleanliness is enough TO make
a modern physician or surgeon faint,
and it is not supplied with the emerg-
sncy REQUESTS indispensable in this day
and generation for the treatment OF the
sick and wounded, particularly the lat
Ter. Three or four times in as many
days, ending wi,h yesterday, the police
wagon was called to cases where not
only immediate emergency treatment
was necessary, but the patient should
have had the benefit OF gum air pillows
and cushions. clean sheets and blankets
and been placed in the very bsst swing
ing cot. yet none Of these things were
available. 1t is even said that the life
of A. c. French, the Short Creek man
run over by the cars, Wednesday night,
might have been saved had it been pos
sible to have had a well-app0inted am
bulance on the ground early, with some
one skilled enough to have stau1ched
the flow Of blood and administered some
stimulant. However this may be, 1t
points in the general direction Of what
is undoubtedly needed. There Is no dis
position shown in this article, and it IS
MOTTO be understood Is rejecting upon
the great amount Of undoubted benefit
the police patrol wagon has been. But
ii was not intended for 8 purely ambu-
lance service. II is not kept in a place
where IL can be properly taken care OF
and its medical aids and surgical ap-
planes preserved in proper state,
and even if this was done, wagon used
for the transportation, often many
times al day, of the worst class Of vags,
drunks. and ,other miscellaneous char
acters, is not the thing in which to Place
wounded or sick people. And every
one. even those best off in this worlds
goods. is liable to need the help OF such
n vehicle. Accidents are constantly
occurring. and no one can foresee when
his or her turn may come. An instance
of this afforded in the case OF Mr.. John
Ellwccd, yesterday. Ten days ago he
was active in saying MrR Rosenberg from
being drowned in the creek, and yester-
day he needed an ambulance himself
and needed it very badly. Tomorrow
it will be some one else, and so it goes.
Several ladies have taken an interest
in this matter, and have minated that
they would be glad to contribute to a
fund to purchase and equip an ambu-
lance. and it is probable that subscrip-
ton to that end will be undertaken in
the near future. One thing is certain,
an ambulance is a necessity.

the bad condition of Twenty-first street,

There is a further illustration Of the
tr5acheroUs nature Of real estate along the
creek a the south end of the Market street
bridge. The entire bank, for lergth of
two or three hundred feet, extending on
both sides Of Market street and running
south sixty or hundred feet has moved,
with the result that a number of build
irgs are badly skewed or have moved. and
extensive repairs will be necessary. These
buildings are built on piles, as rule. but
that does little good, for the whole bank
slips down to hard pan, at a dspth Of
twenty-five or thirty feet. and nothing but

The big rains Of Wednesday and We'd
nesGay right, as well as yesterday morning,
brought the creek out tolerably heavily,
ana as a result considerable accommodations
Of drift came down. much Of It lodging
against the WRECK Of the depot bridge.
The current also cut into the bank rather
seriously. at orc OF two places. notably at
the north erd of the first wooden trestle
west of the wrecked 3. & o. bridge. The
slips were not enough Of themselves to do
actual damage. but they illustrate the very
unstable condition Of real estate generally
aloTg the creek banks. and show that If
we are TO have a continuance OF the rains
serious losses may yet result.

An instance Of the futility of doing any
thing else is shown along the Terminal
railway right Of way. When that road was
first projected alorg the north bank OF the
creek, from Market street east, it was in
tended TO erect a big wall Of solid masonry.
but after the death Of Col. Bissen this pan
was changed from motives Of eco=omy,
and some thousands Of piles were driven
and the tracks constructed upoa them.
The first big flood cut the made banks all
to pieces. hundreds of the plies r1w
standing at sharp angle, and t.. racks
have either gene down IN the general wreck
or have sunk 50 as to be utterly useless,
and loss Of many thousand dollars Is the
result The CID piles will have TO be pulled
out or cut off, new oEes driven, extensive
fills made ard r=w tracks built ard then
the same thing may be repeated with the
next food
