NUMBER 4S
Another Railroad Victim.

The south-bound local freight
on the N. P. ran over and killed an
unknown man at the Grand street
crossing last Monday evening at
about 1890 o'clock. No one wit
messed theaccident, and it is thought
the victim had epdeavored to gain
entrance to freight car or to the
brake beams, missed his calculations
and fell beneath the wheels. His
lett arm and leg were cut off, the
abdomen torn open and contents
scattered along the track, and the
scalp entirely loosened from the
skull, presenting, altogether shock
ing sight. The train had been gone
nearly half an hour before the re-
mains were discovered. Death
must have been instantaneous. The
body was that of man about IS
years of age, attired in the garb OF
a laborer. In his pockets were
found FIVE cards of the U. S. hod-
carriers union, three made out to
the name of Charles F. Tracy and
two to that of VIM. Peterson. The
Tracy cards were from the Portland
(Ore.) branch of the union, and
Marshal Holt at once notified that
body of the accident, but up to yes,
terday had received no answer, and
on Wednesday the remains were in
a tered in one of the city cemeteries.
4 Aside from the cards nothing was
2 found to identify the man. He
} wore watch, had ST.. 80 in silver in
: one pocket, and carried small
package of food, indicating that he
was 'on the travel. as is the case

Archbishop Montgomery, says the Monitor, uttered a strong protest last Sunday against the corrupt sensation- alism of the press. He gave due weight to the usual defense of their course made by the papers, namely, of supplying what their readers demand, but he very clearly pointed out that the giving of "all the dews" does not necessarily include the garnishing of criminal items and the presentation of domestic and social scandals in detail and in such way as to make them a source of demoralization to youthful readers. No matter how fragrant the offense of interruptions journalism, it does not mitigate that of the parents who surrender their children to any agencies of moral pollution. Parents, not the press, are directly answerable for the safeguarding of youthful nor als.

The government aid for good roads plan is supported principally by peo- pie who hope to pay the tax for good roads when not aware of it, or who hope that the other fellow will be com pelled to pay the tax. Nothing hurts the average man more than to pay for something needed by himself and his neighbors. It is an easier matter to spend money for something that is not needed and to invent an excuse for the transaction.
