ACCIDENTAL" was the verdict of the
coroner's jury in the inquiry into the
death of little girl who was burned by
the ignition of gasoline. "Gross care
lessness" would have been more to the
point. There was nothing in the testi-.
mony to show that the man who threw
the match which caused so much damage
and snuffed out the life of an innocent
child, did SO Intentionally. On the con-
trary nobody would say that he did. but
much of an accident as it was tried to
make it appear. Two men were talking
horse" to such an extent that neither of
them heard word said about gasoline in
. pail, yet other witnesses, one within
four yards, the other forty feet away,
plainly heard the remark. By strange
coincidence the match was flung out just
as the gasoline came opposite to the
thrower, and another thing verify of
notice is the fact that the match, having
served the purpose of lighting a pipe,
still had enough fame left with which to
ignite gasoline-for the evidence was
that the match went into the pail-and
create destruction to life and property.
The occurrence is similar to those In
which the excuse always is Ibid not
know it was loaded" To Flip" a match
at any time without looking where it is
going is reprehensible. Even though
gasoline may not be around at all times,
there is danger of setting fire to some
thing that may cause serious results The
custom of carrying gasoline openly in
receptacles which may be easily reached
with fire is also to be condemned The
occurrence at New Egypt shows plainly
what may happen. In answer to this
statement the argument is offered that If
such a custom Is to be abolished you
must start with the Standard Oil Com
pany, as they carry the stuff daily in open
cans" That may be so, but it does not
justify any one to continues practice which
has been shown to be deadly simply be-
taught at New Egypt was harsh one.
Two or three men caring for severe burns,
a little child gone to her last rest, property
injured, and all because somebody did
not, to say the least, observe the strictrules
that are necessary when dangerous ma
terials are being handled. That a lesson
has been learned by those connected with
the sad occurrence in Ocean county will
not be disputed. While it will not re-
store the life of the innocent victim it may
cause others to think and act SO that
similar act will not soon be again brought
to public notice.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1909

On SATURDAY the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad Company opened the
second track of its elevated road in the
city of Philadelphia, and at one stroke
abolished thirteen grade crossings, which
were dangerous and a great impeachment
to the free use Of the streets People
were killed or MANNED at these places and
the aggregate of accidents was large.
Grade crossings In cities will soon be 8
thing Of the past, but the country dis
tricts will have to endure them as condi-
lions are such that 1t would be impossible
to make a general change. The danger
to travellers who use the crossings may be
greatly reduced, however, by the railroad
authorities taking proper precautions by
providing fagmen or safety gates where
they are an absolute necessity, and there
are several Of that Character in this county.
THOSE who suffered financially by the
collapse of the State Mutual Building and
Loan Association have thought there
should be an investigation OF the methods
of some of the officers of that organiza-
tion and there haye been conferences be-
tween state. and county officials on
that point. The general opinion appears
that the true facts should be made public
even though the statute of limitations
may have rendered somebody immune
Sheriff Hatch insists that the grand jury
has right to investigate the actions OF
the officials referred to without waiting
for the Prosecutor of the Pleas or any
other officer to give them special instruc-
lions. Some of the shareholders are wax
ing up and intimate that there will be
something doing before long. While it
may be difficult matter to secure indict-
ments 1t may be very good thing to have
the grand jury thoroughly sift the affairs
of this concern and let the people know
Just what has been done with their money.
If the intimations that have been whis-
pered around have any foundation some
body has been faithless to the trust i'm
posed If the insinuations are groundless
it is but just that they be SO declared. A
searching investigation will not be feared
by the innocent.

TWO Dl1cHEs
Hearing by Commissioners Resulte,
in Ordering in the Mccormack
and LOOMS bitches.

The board of county commission
ers were in session most of the day
Thursday, listening to evidence and
EompIaints regarding the proposed
sites for drainage bitches. The
board formally decided to go ahead
with the construction of two ditches,
the Mccormack and LOOMS. and set
September 2 as a date for a hear
ing on the KiLbee and Downs petit
lions.
The first ditch proposition talk u
up was the Mccormack ditch which
starts at McCornack's lake in Blen-
don township running diagonaliy to
the southeast corner, and then across
the southwest corner of Badger
township into Firesteel creek. The
board appointed E. K. Mather, Vii
liam Nash, and A. j. Annis as a con-
mittee to assess the benefits and fix
damages for the propertyholders
along the site of the ditch. The COM
mittee will start to work Tuesday the
18th and will go over the ground
while making the assessments. The
unit system will be used in making
assessments, that is, each resident
along the route will have costs as
sessed according to the number of
acres that he has benefited.
The same committee was also or
dered to go ahead with the Watkins
ditch which drains west of LOOMS,
runs through the village and follows
along the railroad track till 1t meets
a natural run and empties into Fire
isteel. After the committee has COM
pleted it's work on the above bitches
bids will be advertised at the same
time for the construction Of both of
them. 1t is expected that the bitches
will be finished this fall.
The preliminary hearing of the
Kibbee drainage ditch was held and
the survey of E. K. Mather approved.
This is the most expensive and larg-
est ditch yet considered and it will
cost in the nefghborhood of $4,000.
This ditch, If constructed, will run
from Beulah southeast through Pros
per, terminating in Enemy Greek, 8
miles south of Mitchell. The con-
struction will not necessarily be diff
cult because there is a natural fall
and several runs which will obviate
considerable digging. The hearing
on this proposition will be held Sep
TENDER 2, when all complaints will
be heard and the a%dvisability con-
sidered as to its construction.
Some time ago the hearing Of the
petition CT George w. Downs of Mt.
Vernon for a drainage ditch was held
and the petition rejected, after a
number of the property owners along
the proposed site objected. Mr..
Downs has prepared a new petition
which provides for thing to be put
in In places where the open ditch
was objected to. This petition seems
to obviate many of the difficulties
which we're present before and will
pass il agreeable to those whom 1t af-
fects. The hearing on this will also
be held September End.
E. K. Mather has been acting with
the board as consulting engineer and
will have srnnrvision of the Mans
