Mr.. Woodruff is much older than he

man of varied business interests too,
and those who are not intimately aware
Of his truly remarkable process of ar.
plicstion and adsptability, the wonder
is that he can find any time to devote
to politi cs.
The political weather.vsne certainly
now points to his nomination for the
Vice. Presidency. There seems to be
no good reason why he should not be
chosen, for if ever man possessed the
necessary qualifications for the office,
he is that man. The Republican
party would not only honor him by
placing his name On the ticket beside
that Of William Mckinley, in June
next, but henor Itself in recognizing
the great abilities of a vigorous and
manly American, who has stamped his
personality upon the politics Of bis
state aud country, and who has shown
by his recent speeches in the West that
his knowledge of public affairs is not
circumsc ribed by state lines. He would
grace with dignity, and fill with un
usual ability, courage, courtesy and i'm
psrtiality, the Office of Vice President
of the United States, and justify by his
the wisdom Of his party and friends for
their recognition and reward for splen-
did public service. JOHN E. BRUCE.

CRUEL RAILWAYS IN RUSSIA.
They Kill Ten Times More People
Than Those of Any Other
Country.

1t appears from railway statistics,
recently given to the public in Russia,
that the Russian railways kill ten
times more persons each year than
do those of any other country. By
similar statistics printed some years
back the United States led the other
countries in this respect, but since
1893 Russia has had the bad preemin-
ence of leading the world as respects
the numbers killed yearly in proper
ton to the numbers carried on it's
railways. Out of 50O,o0OO0O passen-
gers on the American railways the
fatalities are $500, including en-
ployes; while out of 100000 passen-
gers on the Russian railways the "a
talities are 6,107. Including the ST.
berian railway Russia's mileage is
about $4,000. miles, while that of the
United States is about 10000 miles.

to get in an account of the death, and
the editor wrote double-columnh head

in about half an hour, but the horror
stricken readers were treated to a
headline like this: Death Loves a

The Republican officials in Washing
ton have made the astonishing discov-
cry that Frank +. Gentsch, of Cleve-
land. a Democrat, has been soliciting
campaign contributions from Demo
cratic employees OF the Auditors office,
and it is gravely proposed to COM
mence penal proceedings against him
for violating the civil service law.
By all means. Soliciting campaign
funds from a public official IS an act
well calculated to fill every Republican
politician with horror and deep dis
gust. Never doing that sort of thing
themselves-or hardly ever-they nat
urally and properly are amazed and
indignant, and should, by all means
invoke the law against the offending
Mr.. Gentsch. The dignity of the law
must be maintained at all hazards, and
this Democrat comes along at an OPP
perfume time.
