The accident at Austin, Pa, which
wiped out scores of lives and did heavy
property damage, seems to have hap
pened because Americans always are
willing to take chance. The dam had
been pronounced unsafe before and
had been patched up in haphazard
manner. Many of the survivors state
that they lived in constant fear that
some day there would be a repetition
of the Johnstown horror, yet no effort
was made to compel the owners of the
dam to make the structure safe. It
was dangerous carelessness on the
part of the people and criminal care
lessness on the part of the owners Of
the dam, as well as the most short
sighted of business policy as the own
ers suffered the greatest financial loss
There should be some way of insuring
safety in erection and proper care in
of such dangerous dams
which imperil the lives of whole COM
munities

CARDINAL GIBBONS, VIEWS.

The news columns today carry a
sermon by Cardinal Gibbons in which
he expressed opposition to three i'm
portant political propositions much
discussed of late, the direct election OF
senators, the referendum and the re
call of judges. The direct election OF
senators, the cardinal holds, involves
the destruction of q strong bulwarl'
against dangerous popular encroach
ments.' He answers the principal
argument in favor of direct ELECTION
thata"it is easier to corrupt the legis
lature than the whole people, by say
ing: ~ B
e "If you cannot trust the members Of
the legislature how can you trust their
constituents from whom they spring
If you cannot confide in our legisla
lures you can not confide in human
government nor in human nature it
self. If few of our legislatures have
been found guilty of bribery, it is most
IE just to involve all the others In
their condemnation. l have sufficient
confidence in the moral integrity OF
our legislatures to be convinced that
the great majority of them have

He looked at the reporter again,
with a new use of his eyes. Floyd was
right; the man was threadbare and
gaunt, and pathetically young. Stanton
had a rebuked consciousness of being
strong and brutal in his strength, sue
cessful and selfish in his success.
''You are an educating companion
he observed, as they went out with an
officer.
"Why?' Floyd inquired, puzzled.
But Stanton would elucidate no
further. -
The ordeal before the magistrate

might make the trip less monotonous

Taken by surprise, Floyd hesitated.

He has arranged for me to go on to-

CARRYING CONCEALED WEAPONS

CARRYING CONCEALED WEAPONS
Last week. says the Chicago Trib
une, "a New York judge sentenced
a man to serve a year in the peni
Tertiary for carrying pistol without
a permit This was the first ccnvic.
ton under the new law, which makes
the mere possession Of pistol with.
out a license a misdemeanor and car
rying it concealed on the person a
felony.
.'The law has some rigid provisions
governing the sale of firearms which
could profitably be copied here. The
seller, whether retail dealer, pawn.
broker, or otherwise, has to keep a
register in which are entered the date
of sale, the name, age, occupation, and
residence of the purchaser, together
with the caliber, make, and manufac
turers number, or other marks OF
identification of the weapon. The
seller must require the purchaser to
produce his permit fer possessing or
carrying a pistol and must enter in
his register its number and the name
of the magistrate or officer by whom
granted. A failure to comply with
these requirements is misdem eanor.
So is it to sell to any person under
16 years OF age.
at may be said that even if these
provisions be well enforced criminal
characters who are determined to arm
themselves will manage somehow to
get them. That is true enough, but
even in the case Of criminals the pos
sibility of penitentiary sentence
may make them more careful about
carrying deadly weapons. 1t should
deter those who do not belong to the
criminal classes, but who have con-
tracted the dangerous revolver habit.
