JEFFERSON DAVIS.

1t has been announced from Wash
ington, D. c., that the name of Jeffer-
son Davis is to be restored on the tab
let on the Cabin John Bridge on the
order of the President.
1t was in 1907 that the Daughters OF
the Confederacy at Richmond, Va.
adopted a resolution urging that the
name of Jefferson Davis be restored on
this tablet, but without avail.
This tablet is on one of the arches
Of the bridge, on the Maryland side Of
the Potomac, a structure famous for
years as being the largest stone bridge
in the world. Connected with the con-
struction of this bridge was Jefferson
Davis, who was then Secretary of War.
After Mr. Davis had delivered his fare
well to the Senate of the United States
and had joined his State, which had Sc
ceded and was of the Confederacy, his
name was chiseled from this tablet
In this act of wantonness there was
exhibited the full measure of the pre-
JUDGE, the hate and "the cusedness' Of
the extremists of the Northern States
against Mr. Davis, whose long record of
public service will illuminate the pages
of the history of the United States with
the most brilliant and patriotic of its
great men.
In this cfiseling of Mr.. Davis name
from this tablet, he was made the more
conspicuous by its absence, as the blot,
designed and suggested as discredit.
led strangers, among them men of prom
inence from foreign countries, to inquire
into the reason of such blurring.
The restoration of the game of JEFF
fefson Davis on this tablet will add a
greater conspicuousness to the fame of
the man who has been villifed in the ex-
treiie Of na1ignity but whose character
has stood the test against his traducers,
md Il win strengthen the spirit of amity
which should prevail between men gal
INT and true.
g Il should be gratifying to Southern
men and women to realize that when
DE impartial historian shall write the
record Of Jefferson Davis, his name will
6e listed high with the immortal heroes
~ the world.

Publicity for Railroad Accidents

When an accident has happened on a
railroad the pablo is entitled to an early
and accurate report of the facts. To
facilitate the ascertainment of the facts
and the dissemination of the report is
the duty of the management of the rail
road.
False reports are an abOmination. but
the public wants the earliest news it cam
get. and it does not blame newspaper
men when hampered by the policy of
suppression which is enforced on some
lines, from depending on rumor where
there is nothing more reliable to go
by.
General Superintendent W. L. Park.
of the Union Pacific. in an address be-
fore the Western Railway Club at Chi
cago, expressed the opinion that avoid
able accidents constitute one of the
greatest blots upon the escutcheon of
American railrOading at the present
time. and advocated publicity as a pol
lcy which will assist in wiping out the
blot. The new method of investigating
accidents on railroads by means of
board upon which the public is repre-
Sented, lnaugurated on Hartman lines
Il Few months ago. is a step in the right
direction. With the public in the conf
hence OF the management of the rail-
roads. Mr.. Park argues, public sentiment
Will assist in upholding discipline IN the
service, which has fallen far below the
plane on which it was maintained be-
fore the aScendancy of unionism among
employees The old-time loyalty among
the men has gone. the speaker declared.
ana company men are unpopular with
their fellows
Officials charged with enforcing disci-
pine would be more efficient with public
sentiment supporting them in the exer-
else of an authority which is exerted
for the benefit of the public.
