The bill TO tax all the males in New Castle
county $3.50 for the support Of the public schools
might be a way TO add to the educational rev.
enue but il would be a hard job to gather that
tax from men who are not property owners
Practically it would add new tax to the hold
ers OF real estate with the effect that the man
with a little house or small property would be as
sessed just as much as the owner of ten houses
or buildings. How much could be secured from
the non-property owners is a question. At
tempts at getting per capita taxes have not been

such men to account for their careless
ness. And when the destination is
reached and the load is being dis
charged, attention should be paid to
blanketing the horse. The great ex-
ertion in pulling the wagon has warm-
ed up the blood Of the horse and the
sudden chill brings sickness that would
not appear if the caretaker of the ami
NAL was given to study the rights
and the needs Of the four-footed
motor.
Every good driver will protect his
horse and every good citizen will gel
after the man who fails to do this.

The Brotherhood of ST. Andrews has arranged
a program of able speakers for the usual daily
services which are held in St. Andrews Church
during the lenten season. AS the years roll
around these services become more and more
popular and they are well attended. In large
cities such religious exercises are conducted dur
ing Lent, while in some they are held almost
daily throughout the year.

ALMOST A MIRACLE.
To Take q Train Over 1000 Miles Of
Road on Time.

When a train is on time," said
Pacific railway station at Yakima,
especially If it is from the east, peo-
pie can at once class 1t as almost a
miracle. There is every opportunity
for losing time and but little for maxi
ing 1t up. The time schedule Is what
the company considers good work, but
It cannot always be accomplished.
When train comes through a thou
sand miles or more of country, when
1t is compelled to pass hundreds of
other trains each of which is liable
to its own accidents, when dozens of
crews and hundreds of men must
each do a part in Its forwarding,
when thousands and thousands of
parts need oiling and attention the
difficulties multiply.
Trains are not run behind time be-
cause any one likes them that way
and they are not late because the
company has a personal dislike Of
some hurried travelled at this or some
other station. I suppose they are late
because that's their nature. At any
rate, have seen enough of railroad
ing to know that when a train from
half way across the continent reaches
here on time there has been great
work done throughout vast stretch
of country by many men and much
material. Think 1t over"

INHUMAN AND DANGEROUS.
Insane and Destitute Man Turned
Adrift.

The Dalles Chronicle says that
trainman coming down from Umatilla
a day or two since informed the Of
ficers here that he saw Wright. the
crazy man, who was arrested here
week ago Sunday night and then dis
charged by orders from the asylum
at Salem, wandering around up there
half clothed and with his bare feet
nearly on the ground. 1t is supposed
vest fields.
This but proves the opinion of Of
ficers here that the treatment Wright
received at the hands of the asylum
officials was positively inhuman. The
poor fellow escaped from the asylum
with two other men and made his way
up to The Dallcs He is not violent,
neither was he bad patient to deal
with; in fact the asylum officials say
he was almost sufficiently recovered
to discharge when he escaped and
therefore telephoned the police here
to let him go and may be he would
make his way back to the institution.
This the officers here disliked to do,
realizing at the time Wright was not
in a condition to take caro- of himself
and really was a menace to any COM
munity into which he might wander.
They also felt that it was inhuman
to turn half clothed, demented man
out to hustle for himself. so they
hel him for day, hoping to hear
from the superintendent of the asy-
lum, who was not there when they
phoned. Wright also realized his
condition and said he would rather
go back to the asylum; that he al
ways got worse when he was exposed
to the suns rays and thought the
harvest field would be had place
for him.
But 1t is not the province of Was
co county to care for the states in
sane when the men who are hired
by the state for that purpose order
them turned loose" What Wasco
county should have done, however,
was to have insisted that some other
provision be made for Wright's care
instead of turning an insane man
adrift to look out for himself and be
menace to the public.

FREIGHT GAR BLAMED
FOR MARQUETTE WRECK

WORTHWHILE, Mich, Aug. s.-Fol-
lowing an inquiry into the causes Of
the wreck at Salem, Mich, which cost
thirty-two lives, the coroner's jury yes
terday returned a verdict blaming the
crew Of 4 freight train which collided
with the excursion train, the two oper-
ators at Plymouth who copied and de-
nvered the order and the Pere Mar
quette railroad for operating under de-
fective rules. The verdict says:
The collision was the result OF
misreading order No. on the part Of
Conductor Hamilton. Engineer Rogers,
Head Brakeman Briggs. and Fireman
Becker of train No. y, due to the i'm
perfect and improper manner in which
it was prepared by Operator Sayre and
delivered by Operator Cassidy at Plym-
outh station.
And. further, we find the operating
system OF the Pere Marquette and the
rules and regulations governing the
same defective IN that they do not pro-
vide that all trains running under a
special schedule and not on the reg
Ular time card should be obliged TO
stop for all stations for orders, which
have been indicated by orders to other
trains as meeting points"

clash between strikers and the police
occurred today. resulting in many casu-

TO quel any outbreak
Two hundred and fifty OF the rebellious
constables, who have sIighted their
duties. were transferred to otho- parts

The bitterness OF the strikers has been
aggravated by the dragging OF religious
differences into the strike situation.
The fghung today broke out at nocn

Inc numbe Of casualties in the fighting
which followed is not known.
