Inspect TIC Band Wagon

AprOpOs Of nothing in particular
and everything in general-we submit
that the moment has arrived when the
committee on public safety mast ex-
tend its supervision to the band
wagon.
The crowds which are loading il to
the point of danger may hope to Sc
cape when it IS smashed and shatter-
ed, but it is cruel, brutal to permit
lambs to be butchered that lions may
survive and shake themselves in cam
paigns hereafter. Where n feather
may break the came.is back, what will
another husky politician do TO the
band wagon?
Most of us remember the return OK
the Nebraskan from abroad. Before
he landed there vas a wild. mac
scTambl for front seats in the vehicle.
But a few words from the glObe-trot-
ter shot them out. heller Shelter.
A change equally as sudden may
take place "a T home. There is the
hope, too, that if the candidates now
riding do not break the wheels. the
public will arise and denounce this IN
seemly rush begun by men who make
laws and glory, and upset this wagon
at a sharp turn in the political high
way.

Graham. The Raleigh Times states

Overlooking THE RAILS.
The washington Post throws out this
suggestion in regard to the cause Of
SO many railway accidents of late.

A paragraph in lat Elk;ns' re-
cent report on railroad operations may
furnish q cleW to the aus Of certain
accidents which ave appalled, the
country during the past few n
The report points out that railway
equipment is much larger and heavie
than formerly. Ordinary day coaches
are being constructed with steel
frames. Pullman cars are heavier than
ever. and locomotives are enormously
heavier. It is true that rails have been.
made heavier. also. but it is possible
that the increased weight Of trains is
proportionatelV greater than the
strength Of the rails. With trains lar
ger, longer, and heavier than ever, and
with sreeG pushed to the limit of the
engines capacity in the attempt to
ovarwork the equipment, It is not sur
pris:ng that accidents occur. It is
rather surprising hat there is not an
incessant string of accidents.
