AN INTERNAL MACHINE.
A Young Nan Goes to Jail for Sendina
II to Himself.


While Chief Schneider was on his va
cation, young man named Steel Lang
lord, 10 years Of age, who lives at the
Arlington hotel, delivered to Officer ] .
Searles box which he claimed was sent
to him at the hotel, and that the inten-
ton of the sender was to blow him into
eternity. The reason assigned by the
young man was that he had rival in
the affections OF a certain young lady,
and bis rival wished to get him out of
the way.
Chief Schneider returned to duty and
the box was delivered to him. 1t resem.
bled crayon box, and in the bottom
were two cotton bags filled with powder.
Over this was spread gunpowder level
with the top of the box. Around the
edges matches were inserted with the
heads up, and the under side of the cover
was covered with sandpaper, the object
being that when the cover was with.
drawn from the grooves the sandpaper
would ignite the matches. the contents
exploded and the holder OF the box blown
to pieces.
On investigation. the chief noticed that
the cover had not been withdra wn in the
natural way. but had been pried up with
knife. Putting two and two together,
he decided that the one who opened the
box knew what was inside. T. Fonshay,
a boy of l3. who delivered the box at the
hotel, was found. and through him Lang.
lord was charged with making up the
box and having it sent to himself.
Yesterday morning in police court.
Langford plead not guilty, but when
confronted with the evidence against
him he had nothing to say.
Justice Loomis, after taking the matter
under advisement. sentenced Langford
to 20days in the city Jail.

FEARFUL SLAUGHTER
RAILROADS and STEEL TRUSTS
RESPONSIBLE,
An Appalling List of Dead and Maimed
on Railroads. Defective Rails Said
to be Responsible for Much of the
Slaughter. Tariff Protected Steel
Blamed.

There was series Of great battles last
year between the railroads and the peo.
pie. and the defeat of the people was &C.
complished with horrible slaughter, and
5000 dead were found on the battle
fields and also 1926 manned and
wounded. The Interstate Commerce
Commission bulletin ON railroad acci-
dents during the year ending June 30th
last, gives this alarming list of causual.
ties, which Ere vastly more than for the
previous year. Can nothing be done to
prevent this appalling loss of life and
limb by the railroads? Defective rails is
said to be responsible for much of the
slaughter, and the Steel Trust in it's
anxiety to make big profits is selling de-
fective steel rails and is, therefore, to
blame as much as the railroads which
accept these defective rails.
The republican tariff which protects
the Steel Trust virtually offers premium
on defective rails by preventing compete
ton. The tariff duty on steel rails is
$7.S4 per ton, and on the small quantity
imported last year, which cost $23. SO per
ton in the country where manufactured,
was equal to an ad valorem tariff tax of
33.44 per cent. With the tariff tax added
to the COST leaving out the freight and
other expenses OF importation. the cost
was $3l.38 per ton on imported rails. At
the same time the price the Steel Trust
charged was $2S per ton at Pittsburg.
The difference of $4.53 per ton between
the price OF steel rail abroad and here
represents the extra tax the tariff pro.
tects the trust in collecting. over and
above. the good round profit the trust
would make without the tariff protec.
tion. There is no complaint that Eng.
lish and Belgium steel rails are defec.
tive; and the fact that com paratively
no accidents from defective rails is at.
tributed to that cause abroad. shows the
criminal rapacity of the Steel Trust here,
although President Roosevelt views that
corporation a. good trust" and takes
counsel of the Steel Trust magnates
Gary. and Frick, and Carnegie. That
there is a bond Of sympathy-an inter.
locking directory-between the railroads
and the Steel Trust that leads to the
purchase Of these imperfectly construct
ed rails is indicated by the railroad
managers paying the trust price with.
out murmur. If the tariff tax vas
abolished on steel rails there would be
the incentive offered to the railroads of
buying better rails at much reduced

TOILER and SPOILER
The Big STICK IS BLAMED FOR
DEPRESSION.
The "AmeriCan Business Nan" for
November Says the Sp0iIer Is
Abroad With the Big Stick. The
Washington Standard Makes Some
Pertinent Remarks.

Under the caption, "The Toiler and
the Spoiler," the American Business Man
for November, has an article which opens
as follows:
Every man who ever earned dollar
every man, who, by toll and patient
effort, has built up a responsible position
every man who has money in the bank
or home to live in; every man in busi-
ness, whether he be employeror employe,
should take heed. For we face nation
al danger that threatens to stop our earn
ings and wipe out our savings; that
threatens to cut off our weekly pay en-
velopes; that threatens to throw us into
q chaos of hard times.
"It is the danger OF the Big Stick.
1--WE live in a splendidIy prosperous
country. But our prosperity was not
gained in single night. 1t was earned
by long years of patient effort. 1t was
won by decades Of struggle for world
markets. 1t was brought about through
the concerted energy of the farmer, the
oil man, the steel man, the manufac-
turer, the miner. the merchant. 1t was
made possible largely by the railroads.
"Now the Spoiler is abroad in this land
OF toilers. The Big Stick is his weapon.
And his purpose is not to build up, but
to tear down. Not to correct and to
help but to wreak vengeance, and to
destroy"
Commenting on the above. John Mil
Ter Murphy, the veteran editor OF the
Washington Standard, Olympia, says:
ut may be true, as Mr.. Bryan observes,
that President Roosevelt is not response
BILE for the recent financial furry, which,
as he states, was caused by the gamblers
of Wall street. In 1898, the depression
was charged against the Cleveland ad-
ministration, whereas the tronble had be.
gun prior, during Harrison's term. Re-
publican orators Travelled about the
country telling the voters the hard times
were occasioned by the Wilson tariff bill
and principally on that issue elected
Mckinley. In 1897 and 1898, there was
a shortage Of wheat in Southern Russia,
and a famine in the wheat.producing
section of India, in which the natives
were starving by the hundreds of thou
sands. Crops were good in the United
States. The farmers wheat, grown in
Washington and elsewhere. found good
market. Such individuals as our comic
Cushman, and talkative Jones told the
voters how the Dingley bill had brought
prosperity to their doors all was lovely
