GRAFTON wIsTFuLLY HOPES.

In congratulating the enterprislng
men who have promoted the trolley
system that will soon be in operation
between .Fairmont and Clarksburg and
the citizens of the two cities, the
Grafton Sentinel delivers itself OF a
wistful hope that the trolley will soon
bring It's city In connection with Fair
mont and Clarksburg:
THE citizens OF the two towns
named are entitled to hearty con-
CALCULATIONS upon the completion OF
the trolley car line between these two
points. The new line Of road will
prove Il great business advantage to
Clarksburg and FaIrmont and we are
sure that the enterprising gentlemen
who have put the capital in this in
vestment will. reap an abundant re-
ward In forwarding this enterprise to
completion. We can only hope that
the building OF the proposed trolley
system in this city will lead finally to
a line that will connect up the three
towns which form the three corners
of the triangle that encloses rich
and prosperous section OF the interior
OF the State. Such system would
greatly facilitate the business of the
whole section Of that portion Of the
three counties bordering on the three
sides"
The Sentinel is to be congratulated
upon its wisdom and spirit Of pro-
gressiveness. 1t should boost the in
tururban trolley for all get out and
Fairmont and CIayksbWrg will help all
they can to bring Grafton closer TO
thrm.-Clarksburg Telegram.

on SUBSCRIPTION:
THE HOUSE is SAFE.

From the published reports con,
corning the organization of the State
Senate, 1t seems probable that the peo-
ple will have very little show Of get
ting much benefit from the actions Of
that body at the coming session OF the
Legislature. We hope the reports
are false and that "the interests" AMI
the Democrats will not be able TO
block all the efforts put forth by the
Governor and the House Of Delegates
to better the conditions In our State.
However, they say 1t is poor rule
that won't work both ways, so If the
Senate is to be under the domination
ot Influences preiudicial to the inter
5ests Of the people. 1t is consoling
thonght that the House of Delegates
win stand as the safeguard OF the pub.
Tic and no backward step can be TAX
en- even should any advance forward
be checkmated. Another thing is
quite certain, the House OF Delegates
win be in no humor to entertain the
paid lobbyists Of certain companies
who have heretofore made themselves
Conspicuous at the legislative sessions.
Especially is that true OF the delega-
.tfonf from Marion county Two mr.
three OF these notorious HOLSTERS"
have made themselves extremely Oh
noxIous and their presence at the
State capital will be a most nauseat-
ling spectacle. We would advise the
companies paying the expenses of
these smiling monstrositles to save
their money and keep them at home
AS they are all Democrats or Repub.
5lcans in bad odor, their influence with

MepeRMorrs CANDIDACY.

The Wheeling Intelligencer is get
ting tired, as some Of the rest Of us
are, Of this talk Of ending factionalism
and in the same breath advocating
the chief OF the sinners on that line
for the Presidency Of the Senate. The
Intelllgencer is for peace, hut not at
the price of surrender Of sound party
principles. It delivers itself on the
subject as follows in discussing the
candidacy of Senator McDermott for
presidency OF the Senate:
In another column OF the lntelligen-
GER today appears communication
from Clarksburg, advocating the
claims of Hon. Joseph McDermott for
the presidency Of the Senate. The In
telligencer has no candidate for this
office. except a frequently expressed
preference for Mr.. HaZlett. However

LAY WRECK
At MA7TOX
OFFICIALS HOLD OPERATOR FOR
THE DEATH OF SPENCER
THREE RULES WERE
VIOLATED.

WASHINGTON, Dec, 19.-oficiais
Of the Southern Railway, in a state
ment given ont by Alfred P. Thorn,
general counsel, fix the responsibility
for the wreck at Lawyers. Va, on No
vember 80. in which President Spen.
Ger lost his life on G. D. Mattox, the
operator at Rangoon.
Mr. Thorn said that the question
whether there was criminal negligence
was for the State authorities to de.
eide. He volunteered the information
that II the authorities did think Mat
tox criminaity negligent he could not
be prosecuted onder the Virginia stat
ures, hut probably could be under the
common law Of the Old Dominion.
In the statement which he made
public last night, Mr.. Thorn says Mat.
tox disobeyed three rules Of the com
pany. compliance with any one Of
which would have prevnted the wreck.
The first rule provided that when
President Spencer's train passed Ran
COON. Mattox should have telegrapheh
to Lawyers the time Of It's passing
and received from the operator at
Lawyers the time 1t passed that poinr.
Should Have Stopped Train.
Failing to receive the time at the
latter station. he should not have al
lowed the second train to enter the
block. In his testimony before the
examining officials Mattox said he
did not receive the time from the Law
yers operator.
The second rule provided that in
case he could not communicate with
the Lawyers operator, Mattox should
have displayed stop signals at his
station. He acknowledged having fail.
ed to do this. The third rule required
him to ask for clear block, even II
his block record showed that 1t was
clear. Mattox testified he failed to do
this.
In summing up the evidence pre-
scented, Mr.. Thorn says that 1t was the
clear duty OF Mattax TO stop train M.
81 until he had received positive as
surance that train No. 80, TO which
President Spencer's car was attached,
had passed out Of the block between
Lawyers and Rangoon.
Admitted Neglect Of Duty.
"He admits that he failed TO do
this" says Mc. Thorn, "and, therefore,
there can be no doubt that he was
responsible for the wreck. Whether
or not his negligence was criminal is
not for the officials OF the Southern
Railway to say, the object OF the In
vestigatIon by the railroad company
having ben 10 find out just what caus-
ed the wreck, to prevent, II possible,
repetition.
"Mattox admits that he violated all
Of the rules laid down TO prevent the
wreck. and no matter how loath the
railroad authorities are 10 hold any
man responsible. there is nothing left
for them TO do. Mattox had been edu-
Gated by the company for the work
he had 10 DO. and had passed a salts
factory examination before he was
assigned TO duty at Ragoon."
