SAILING BACKWARD.
Fssts Of seamanship Performed With
Square Rieaers


Square rigged ships can, in case OF
necessity. be made TO sail rudder fore
most, and there are many cases known
where ships have Jailed in that re-
yersed order. Only few years ago a
case was recorded Of such backward
sailing.
One instance where the maneuver
was employed by a genius in battle
tactics rather than under the need of
marine disaster is brilliant chapter
In the history OF Old Ironsides. This
account is taken from Maclay's naval
history:
"The sternmost ship was observed
lufing up so as TO take a raking posi-
ton across the Constitutions stern.

maneuver was executed IN leautiful
style. The yards swung around almost
as soon as the order was issued; the
ship checked her course, trembled for
a moment and then began backing. As

backward for more than 600 miles and

Blame for the Bridgeport Wreck.

Immediately after the Bridgeport wreck
the railroad officials issued statements
which blamed the dead engineer Of the
train for recklessness in taking a cross
over at full speed. This attitude on the
part of the corporation was resented by
the public as a characteristic evasion OF
the responsibility. The coroners verdict
following secret inquest into the death
of the fourteen victims Of the wreck
sustains the public view by placing the
blame squareiy upon the railroad COM
pany for the maintenance of a danger
ously short cross-over switch, which could
be safely used only by the reduction Of
train speed to the fifteen miles an hour
prescribed by the company's rule. While
it is probably true that the engineer
knew the danger, 1T was nevertheless
incumbent on the railroad company to
interpose between safety and disaster a
more trustworthy safeguard than a mere
administrative order. Such orders are
In vogue on all lines, and are constantly
violated doubtless with the tacit ap-
prevail of railroad officials so long as
wrecks do not result. In this case there
is no escaping the conclusion that the
railroad was criminally negligent in main
tanning a switch that could not be safely
used by trains running at ordinary rates
of speed The country will now await
with keen interest the result Of the coro-
ner's findings Who will be- punished for
this waste of life2

Texas and Temperance.

The Texas election plays hob with
Henry Watterson's dictum that no demo-
crat can be a prohibitionist. There are
but a handful of republicans in the Lone
Star state, and yet, in poll Of nearly
half a million, prohibition came within a
few thousand votes of carrying the day.
Evidently a great many Texas democrats
differ with Mr. Watterson on the liquor
question.
The cry Of fraud raised by the prohi-
bitionists may or may not be well sup
ported. In the small towns and the
country districts the "drys'' were strong.
In the cities the "wets'' had their way.
AS it Is usually in cities that skulduggery
at the polls is practiced, 1t may be true
that some fine work was done In those
localities the other day.
But even IL there is contest and the
result as now proclaimed stands there
will be another test of strength in the
state on the subject. A difference so
slender in a total vote SO large will in
evitably inspire the defeated to another
effort at as early day as can be ar
ranged.
We may expect too, to see the strength
thus manifested by the prohibitionists of
Texas influence the situation elsewhere.
The temperance question is again before
the people of Maine. who are to say this
coming fall whether prohibition is to
continue to stand In the Pine Tree state.
