Forgetfulness of orders by an engineer
was the cause Of a train wreck near
Lincoln. Nebraska, by which two persons
lost their lives. The danger that lies in
human fallibility cannot be eliminated
from railroad travel, and the best that
can be done is to employ trustworthy
men who feel the weight of the respon-
Bibility which rests upon them.

There is lively controversy over the

Andrew Carnegie presented to Kaiser
Wilhelm. Prof. Gustav Tornier of Ber-
lin is convinced that the creature could
not have supported itself in life in the
attitude which the artist represents The
positions given to the hind feet and tail,
he says, are ridiculous. 1t is hardly like
~, however, that Andrews gift, having
been accepted, will be returned.

In Washington the chauffeurs have
formed an organization which announces
two objects-the prevention of ''joy-rid-
ing' and the suppression of automobile
colleges. The latter of these aims is
entirely selfish and Numerically opposed
to the interests of the public.

The fire loss in the United States and
Canada during August, 1909, was &c.,
$4,000, not particularly small, though
it seems so in comparison with the fire
loss of $23, 123, 900 in August, 1908, and
of $2O,24S,OOO in August, 1907. More
favorable than ever, therefore, is this
years fire loss showing as compared
with its predecessors $136, 056,950 for
the first eight months, against $163, 943,-
300 for the corresponding period of
1908, and $155, 965, $50 for that of 1907.

Somebody has suggested to St Louis
that she can change her treeless condi-
ton by planting mulberry trees, which
in Cairo, Illinois, grow luxuriantly de-
spite the dust and smoke which has been
disastrous to tree enterprise in the Mis-
souri, metropolis. The mulberry tree has
been successfully matured in Milwau-
kee but as shade tree it was always
liable to injury through the forays of
the small boy after berries. This was
the sad fate of a mulberry tree which
once served as a shade tree on Jefferson
street, opposite the site now occupied by
the postOffice.

valley the major has stored away in his memory. and it is likely it would take several volumes to print all he knows and will not tell of later events and things now going on, for he is still in Iniddle life and perfect health. and is in the midst of large under takings. jointly with others. One of these in which John Hays Hammond is the central figure is an immense project in the Yaqui river valley for the development of power and the storage and distribution of irriga
 ton water It is with difficulty that Mir. Burnham can be drawn into recital of his own activities. except in reminiscent way. He prefers to talk about his intimate and highly esteemed friend, MT. Hammond. and business prudence keeps his mouth well sealed in regard to him, where matters of present concern are preached. He said, though, that among other of the many large proj- ects with which Mir. Hammond is connected js a power enterprise at Guanajuata, Mexico. Concerning NIT. Hammond's mining activities, he said he did not care to be quoted. But he enthuses greatly over Mir. Ham monds attitude on statehood for Arizona. He is not only for it. but he has been of that mind for years, and Mir. Burnham says he has heard many an earnest and forceful pre- sentation of Arizona's cause by MT. Hammond, before prejudiced and obdurate audience of small and some times large numbers. He says MT. Hammond may be depended upon at all times to use his influence for statehood, and MT. Hammond speaks advisedly, for he knows Arizona all most as well as his native state of California.

 thought of all Arizona citizens.
 AS MT. Taft tried to make plain, in adopting a simple constitution. modelled after the constitution of the
 United States, the people by no means bar themselves from the bene- fits of such reformatory legislation as they deem wise-on the contrary the adoption of a simple and plain constitution dealing only with the fundamental principles of govern ment leaves the people free to make such laws. through their legislature. from time to time as will in their judgment meet their needs. On the other hand, the adoption of such a constitution as that of Oklahoma full of provisions of all kinds which belong solely to the domain of stat utory enactment-may readily ham per the state in carrying out re- forms in. the future. Constitutional provisions which may seem altogeth- CT wise today may prove in a few years to be binding letters against which struggle may be made in vain

BAILEY ON THE TARIFF.

If anybody doubts that Senator Bai- ley is well informed on the tariff question. or if anyone thinks that the senator cannot clearly explain his posi- tion, let him read the following extract from one of the Texans speeches:
 When the storm king roars with fury, and from the bosom of the black cloud lightning leaps. and when the ship with pended mast is struggling for ber life, then it is a bold sailor who with light heart stands by his post and does his duty. but he is a hero who stands there"
 A sailor who could have a light heart in those circumstances is more of a fool than a hero.-Charleston News and Courier

MUCH TO BE DONE IN RUSSIA.

Russia has not been long the pos sessor of a national legislature, but re- cent advices from that country indi- cate that it is likely to have no lack of legislative activity. To no small extent, indeed, this condition of af- fairs must be regarded as owing to the fact that the empire has not had legislature and that needed reforms have therefore been delayed, and meas ures aiming to bring them about have accumuiated.-Brad
