the period. The streets, as usual were

Drought and grasshoppers Wrought such
haVoc IN the middle west that the people
in their despair he'd the government respon-
sible, and organized a new party to legislate
relef. Eloduence without limit was put on
tap, and songs were sung to hearten the
depressed. But nature did what politics
failed to do. and when the turn in the long
lane came the prospect presented was of the
brightest. The farmer has forgotten his
mortgages long ago lifted, and is now A
pIutocrat on bucolc scale. His bank ac-
count is growing. and the money lender is
stranger to him. And yet there are peo-
pie who say that the country is headed for
the devil. and making rapid speed on the
way.

Abolish These Death Traps,

Another child was sacrificed this morning
to the parsir-Iony of a railroad corporation
In this District. A boy of twelve years was
struck by a train at Langdon as he stood
on the rear step of his fathers wagon
which had lust cleared the tracks. This
crossing has become tragically notorious
Only a few weeks ago boy was killed, and
the record of such deaths at that point is
appallingly long. Still the crossing Is main
tanned a grade without guards of any kind.
An automatic electric bell Is supposed TO
ring on the approach of a train and the
public is expected to take warning thereby
and wait for the passage of the cars. But
often the bell does not ring. 1t is claimed
in this case that it did not ring. And even
when it does ring 1t does not constitute
sufficient safeguard against the death or
mutilation of the people who are required to
cross the tracks.
The maintenance of these unguarded
crossings in the District Is criminal and the
corporation guilty of it should be prose-
cuted by the local authorities to the full ex-
tent of the law. The Commissioners have
the power under the police regulations to
safeguard life and property, and 1t is plainly
within their authority to compel the estab-
lishment at this Langdon crossing and all
other death traps of similar character OF
gates and the maintenance Of fagmen. The
bell signal has been again and again proved
to be of no worth whatever 1t ls In any
case unfair and unsafe to rely upon the
judgment of the crossing users. They Will
take chances even when the gong sounds.
They must be prevented from doing SO
1t is monstrous that with all the work
that is being done within the city to elm
mate grade crossings and render human
life more safe these suburban crossings
should continue to be maintained in heir
worst possible form. If the Commissioners
will not act under their general police reg
ulaton warrant. the residents of the regions
affected by these death traps should go into
court to seek writs of mandamus to compel
the writing of regulations of sufficient
stringency to put stop to the frequent
tragedies. The courts have upheld the
power of the Commissioners under this
statute in degree that warrants the belief
that if the will to act in behalf Of human
life were present at the District building
the effort would be rewarded by judicial
support.

high and the current Is dangerously rapid.
All boatmen who go forth upon 1t take a
greater risk than usual, owing to the swift
rush of the waters and the eddies that
form In unexpected places The care that
is always required in boating must be re-
doubled in such circumstances, after many
days Of heavy rains. The young men who
tried to play at rescue work in the Little
Falls rapids apparently did not take &C.
count Of the exceptional conditions. In
any case they were running useless and
as 1t proved a fatal risk. The wonder Is
that one of them survived.
Water pleasuring must be surrounded by
many safeguards In the best circumstances.
The enjoyment of a river outing should not
and to reasonable pecpie does not lie IN the
danger. But some waterfarers are other
wise constituted and are imbued with the
idea that their fun is in proportion to the
risk they run of capsizing or swamping
The boat rocker is an extreme OF this type.
The real zest of river sport should De
found in the gentle motion, the soft undu-
lations Of the craft, the moving scene. the
fresh air and. on the part of the oarsman
or the paddler, the exercise. When these
delights are complicated with useless tnVi-
tations to disaster. as by the use of mar
row. frail, treacherous craft the fun be-
comes folly.

The President and the Canal.

b The Presidents decision to visit Panama
Is wisely taken. He will not give hlmsei
time enough to make a study of the situa-
ton, but even a brief inspection will aid
him, and he should return with better
idea of what is necessary to carry that
great project of the canal to completion.
1t is far and away the greatest project OF
the age. The curbng of the trusts has not
received more attention than necessary. The
railroad rate bill has grown out of condl-
lions which required immediate action. And
"Packingtown' had but to be described to
justify the energy with which the President
tackled ne problem of meat inspection.
But those matters now out of the way
in that they are well in hand, and must
yield to legislative treatment. The acts Of
this Congress may not accomplish all that Is
desired and necessary. Appeals to the
courts may result in disclosing defects In
the workable value of the statutes enacted.
The point is, however that the sentiment
of the country has been fixed: and not until
a full remedy has been found for the evils
complained OF will vigilance on those scores
be relaxed.
The canal is the supreme thing now. We
want it, and the world at large wants 1t.
and longer delay would be expensive at
least in the way of national prestige. The
French dallied and wrangled, and lost their
opportunity. We have suffered little by
reason of indecision, but not to the extent
of discourasine those responsible for the
work. The President is strenuous, and with
a clear field should be able to impart his
spirit to others.
Less than two years time remains of the
present administration. 50 that only
beginning can be made on the canal under
Mr.. Roosevelts direction. But the begin
ming is much. AS the twig is bent the tree
inclines. AS the digging begins the canal
will take shape. AS in all big things, there
will he periods of confidence and then of de-
pression-hot fits and cold fits. Contro
versies will spring up. Delays may occur.
But the main proposition is established. The
canal has been ordered. the site selected,
the money appropriated; and as Uncle Sam
is man of muscle and industry he should.
pick in hand. give a good account of HIM
self in the ditch to which. until IL Is COM
,pleted and ships passing through, wide

vital public interests involved in these
measures, the hope may be expressed that
in the execution of these laws no subordi-
nate official will be permitted by the Presl-
dent and his cabinet officers to block the
work of regulating the food production or
the country in the interest of the public
health.
The work enjoined by the acts OF Con-
gross Is urgently necessary to check
gross fraud and a criminal evil. The bills
have not been passed by the houses in the
best of spirit but rather reluctantly, IN
consequence of an imperative popular de-
mand for legislation. Had it not been for
the tremendous outburst of indignation
over the packing house processes caused
by the publication of THE, Jungle and the
Presidents investigations 1t may be doubted
whether anything would have been done at
this session or the next in the way OF the
correction of abuses or the prevention OF
frauds 1t will be in the last degree DAN
gerous for Congress now to leave undone
anything which will insure system or
government inspection over the meats ana
other food products that will prevent adui-
terations frauds and unwholesome proc
esses of all kinds and guarantee to the
consumer clean, pure and honest foods.

Water TRAGEDIES.

The dangers of river pleasuring were
tragically demonstrated yesterday In tho
vicinity of Washington. three lives beng
lost in consequence Of accidents on the
water. One of the drownings resulted from
an exceptionally foolhardy exploit on the
part of two young men, who sought the
most treacherous stretch OF water In this
region for an experiment in boat-overturn-
ing and rescue training The other tragedy
remains mystery as to It's cause and cir
cumstances. powerful athlete and WE'LL
trained swimmer and boatman was plunged
into the water at the river bank In such q
manner as to disable him instantly and to
overturn the canoe in which his wife was
already seated. Both were drowned This
accident can not be classed with the usual
run of canoe disasters, for the man was
skillful and careful Nevertheless, with all
his training, he and his wife were swept
to death

Meat Inspection and Pure Food

me discovery OF flaws in the pure food
blu, as 1t affects the meat inspection nara
graph in the agricultural appropriation
DILL has fortunately been made in time to
permit a final change before adjournment
Inc contention Is that whereas the apnro-
priatlon bill positively prohibits the use OF
any preservatives whatever in the prepara-
tion of meats for export or domestic sale
the pure food bill grants the packers per-
mission 10 use an external application that
may be removed mechanically OF otherwise
on meats prepared for shipment out of the
country. II Is also stated that each bill
provides for separate system of inspec-
ton over meat products, the appropriation
bill authorizing the bureau of animal in
dustry to maintain a scrutiny over meat
foods. while the bureau of chemistry Is by
the pure food bill given Jurisdiction over
the same products along with all other
foods. 1t is believed that this duplication
would in practice cause friction and posi-
bly, initiate against the satisfactory execu-
ton of the laws.
Just why these discrepancies were not
discovered and corrected before the passage
of the pure food bill is not at this time so
material a question as whether the ADJUST
ment will now be made. before the bills
are approved by the President 1t is stated
that the trouble is due In part to the desire
or the bureau chiefs of the Department of
Agriculture for power. Setting this sug-
Sestion aside as unlikely, in view OF the

The Gage Of Battle.
, New York Evening Post,

From the New York Evening Post.
President Roosevelt will receive and
Will deserve, great deal of praise for
his determination to bring sweeping
criminal prosecutions against the Stand
ard Oil Company. 1t is not that the step
is politically hazardous, nor that 1t re-
quires any great amount of heroism to
attack the most hated corporation, with
the most detested officers in this country
But the fact remains that the STANDARD
crowd are great power in the financial
world Banks and railroads are their
rlaythings as well as the oil business
and no republican President, aware of the
close dependence of his party upon Han
naesque sinews Of war. has even dared to
strike the shield of those magnates so
full and square as Mr.. Roosevelt has now
done.

Victory of Push and Publicity.
From the Louisville Courier Journal

Push has made American men what
they are today. 1t Is the great American
spirit condensed into a monosyllable.
Hand in hand with push goes publicity as
a motive power toward success The two
are close that it is difficult to know
them apart. The man Of push Is cham
pion of publicity. If he has good thing
he wishes the public to know about 1t. If
he has goods to sell there must be push
and publicity If he would convert those
goods into income. What Is the use Of
having the goods to sell If no one knows
of them? How are the buyers to be found i?
Push and publicity will provide the ar
ticles to be sold and the persons to buy
them. Push and publicity are the anti
dotes of stagnation and starvation.

Nor silver's precious weight
I scorn the bronze employed to mold
The statues of the great.
The lead which forms the bullet swift,
The steel which aids It's flight
No more my. mood to conquest lift.
Nor tempt my mind to fright
But when the sun, with horrid glee,
Brings comfort to a stop.

And wish that 1t would drop.
