Bisbee daily review., 1902-01-10

THERE seems to be an epidemic of railroad accidents prevailing through out the country, from New York to California. The tunnel disaster in New York was the most horrible re- gently recorded. For this the fireman and engineer of one of the trains have been arrested. The railroads have been in operation long enough to now be under perfect system, and if every man did his duty there probably would be no accidents. But railroad men are human and prone to err, along with the balance of mankind. No man is so perfect in his daily occupation that he never makes blunders and al lows important matters to slip his memory, occasionally, to the detriment of his business system and resulting in pecuniary loss. The railroad engi- peers of the country have the greatest responsibility, and when they are neg ligent, from any cause, or fail to ob- serve the letter of their instructions, death and destruction often occurs. The most liberal charity is due the railroad men who meet with accident, but, of course, gross carelessness should not be allowed to go unpunished.

THE public school report for Decem- Der shows a most healthy growth of that institution. The average attend- ance for the first fo IT months of shis term was 5l0.s, an increase of 1915 over that for the whole of last term. Notwithstanding an additional teacher was provided this year, the rooms are somewhat conge sted now. With this growth as a basis for estimating for the future, It will be seen that Bisbee will soon be in need of another school building.
