For Gods Sake, Stop! |

From the Reader: The killing OF
people on railways continues to make
a horrible record. Rather more than
death for every hour of the day and
ten persons manned for every sixty
minutes is something a people not
scared against slaughter should find
to trouble sleep until it is remedied.
Every ninety minutes there is a COLI
sion or deraliment. During a year
there is one of these accidents for
every sixteen miles of track. OF en-
ployes or railways one out of every
twenty-eight is injured every year.
and one out of every 81 is killed.
II this is true of railway employees in
general, the risk in the more hazard
GUS branches Of the business must be
terrific. If the people killed and
manned were placed along the track
age OF the United States at regular in
tervals, there would be fresh grave
every twenty-one miles, every year,
and cripple every two or three miles.
In twenty-one years the gravestones
would become milestones, If the
slaughter goes on, and the manned
would be within an ordinary city
block Of each other along every mile
of right of way. Such battles as Bull
Run, Fort Donelson, Shiloh and Get
tysburg fill us with horror and con-
sternation, as we hear or read of
WindrOws of slain, streams running
red to the sea and the sickening waste
Of human life. But for the year end
ing March 81, 1906, the railways of
the United States killed and wounded
95,S01 people, while the killed,
wounded and missing of both Confed-
crates and Federals for the battles of
Gettysburg, Shiloh and the first bat
tie of Bull Run all combined amount
to the less heart breaking total of
$4,000. The worst Cor best) of it is
that other nations run their railways
without this daily carnage. Why do
not we?

Dream Told Him Name.

Through a dream Samuel Howard,
chief operator for a telegraph COM
pany here, probably saved the com.
pany damage suit. A message was
received Friday from Omaha, address.
ed to W. B. Ellis, of this city, but no
such person could be found.
Howard was thinking of the mes.
sage when he went to bed, and he
dreamed that it was for w. Bush Mel.
son, grain dealer. AS soon as he
reached the Office next morning he
sent the telegram to Nelson, who read
1t and accepted it as coming for him.
Nelson expected the telegram the
afternoon before, but said the delay
had not caused him any inconven,
fence. Had the telegram not been de-
livered it would have meant loss OF
several thousand dollars to him.
The mistake in addressing the tele,
gram to Ellis instead of Nelson was
doubtless due to the confusion coused
by the strike.-Lexington (Ky.) Dis

A New Luxury For the President.


The new Union Railroad Station at
Washington will be supplied with
unique feature-a special entrance
and reception room for the President
of the United States. The Presidents
entrance is an archway of marble
thirty feet in width, says Rene Bache,
in the course of an interesting article
in Harper's Weekly. "On alighting
from his carriage beneath it, the fore
most citizen of the nation will step
into a vestibule of noble proportions
of the same width as the archway,
and twenty feet in depth. In this YES
thule the persons who accompany
him will be waited upon by trained
attendants, while the President him
self will seek privacy in a room set
apart for his exclusive use on the
right hand adjoining. The Presi-
dents Room, as it is called, will be
most beautifully and luxurious1y fur
nished. Costly Oriental rugs will
cover the floor; the ceiling will be
done in gold and color. and the walls
will be paneled in blue silk. In the
middle will be a table suitable for
writing, provided with solid silver
inkstand and other appurtenances to
match-this and all the articles of
furniture being CT mahogany. All
of this luxury will not cost the Chief
Executive a penny, but will be paid
for out. of the pockets of the railroad
companies.

The Traitors, Cup.

Among the treasures which adorned

china saucer-the memorial, accord
Ing to the author of edinburgh I'm
der Sir Walter Scott" OF a striking
incident in the domestic life of SCOTS
father and mother.
One autumn Mr.. Scott, senior. had
a client who came regularly every
evening at a certain hour to the
house, and remained in his private
room usually long after the family
had gone to bed
The little mystery of the unknown
visitor excited Mrs. Scott's curiosity,
and her husbands vague statements
increased it. One night, therefore,
although she knew it was against her
husbands desire, she entered the
room with a salver in her hand, and
offered the gentleman a dish of tea.
Mr.. Scott very coldly refused it,
but the stranger bowed and accepted
cup. Presently he took his leave.
Then Mr.. Scott seized the empty cup
and threw it on the pavement. His
wife was astonished at first, but not
when she heard the explanation.
II may admit into my house, on
business, persons wholly unworthy to
be treated as guests of my wife.
Neither lip of me or of mine comes
after Mr.. Murray, of Broughton's."
1t was actually the traitor, Secre-
tary Murray, who bought Off his life
and fortune by giving evidence
against his gallant Jacobit associates.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

People good enough for self-gov-
eminent have it.
The old world may be wrong, but
it cannot be righted in day.
independence in men or in nations
is an achievement, not bequest.
There is only one thing worth
fighting for, and that is freedom.
Humanity enjoys more freedom to-
day than ever before since the world
began.
Every government exists by the
consent Of the governed, and people
get about the kind of government
they deserve.
If some men had not questioned
the justice of the law and defed the
law, there would be to-day no such
thing as freedom.
The law in America is for the peo-
pie, of the people, and by the peo-
pie, and when this is not the case
the people are themselves to blame.
We are all just getting rid of our
shackles. Listen closely anywhere,
even among the honest and intellect
ual people, and you can detect the
rattle of chains.
For the first time in the history
of the world, it is the general feel
ing OF mankind that freedom OF
thought and speech is a good thing.
and that the masses can safely be
trusted with it.
No power is great enough to bind
the thought forever escapes.

proving all religions, but by permit
ting in patience what Providence al
