WHERE LAS SPRING GoNri

From the Salem, n. j., Standard
Everywhere have been heard COM
plants of the backward spring. II was
said that the season is three weeks
late and that the weather conditions
have been exceptional this year.
So far sas meanness of the weather
is concerned there will be no dis
senting voice 1t has been cold. wet,
sloshy sneezy, snuffing and general
ly uncomfortable spring. But II is yet
to be proved that it is exceptional.
lha fact is that in this latitude, at
least, spring has come to be little
more than a tradition. Some of them
are dry and some are wet, but all are
cold, windy and disagreeable. There
IS no spring any more except in the
minds of the Oldest inhabitants and
the spring poets We Jump from vim
ter into summer without any inter-
mediate season.
Meteorological wiseacres tell US
that the seasons are the same as they
always were and they bring statistics
OF temperatures for years to prove IT,.
But we, whose memories run back
forty years or more, know better
We know that barefoot time never
came later than the first of April, and
that with barefoot time came swim
ming time and that the red wing
blackbirds we're then building their
nests in the rush clumps and the sun
nsh were greedy for angle worms.

punishment for the crime II the police would exercise
for week two, greater vigilance and make arrests

when a man, matter whether he be a citizen OF
an alien realizes that if he carries pistol, knife

himself 10 the danger of prison term and that the
police looking for him all times, it will make him
take keen interest the question whether It would not
be better for him TO leave such weapons home
TO dispose of them altogether
Il is a notorious fact that murders are COM
muted in the United States than in all the civilized
countries in Europe combined. That is largely be-
the laws against carrying concealed weapons
not enforced they should be in most communities
Perhaps if the police in this and other cities were

might follow such activity with drastic punishment and
sharp warning to others to disarm take the conse

KEEP OFF THE TRACK.
New York Tribune.

New York Tribune
If fourteen persons we're killed in
single railroad accident some day, the
news would be published all over the
country. The papers in the nearest
large city would print columns about
it, while even those at the other side
of the continent would give it a para
graph or two If a similarly deadly
accident should occur the next day
and the next, the diurnal recurrence
of such slaughter would be taken up
as leading topic Of national concern.
1t would not unjustly be regarded as
national reproach, and there would
be widespread demands for stringent
legislation or other official action
which would make an end Of it.
Yesterday, however. about fourteen
persons were needlessly killed on the
railroads of the country; today a
similar number will be sacrificed; and
the same thing will happen tomorrow
and every day of the year. Yet moth
ing will be said about this habit OF
wholesale and incessant slaughter,
save here and there a random and
obscure line or two in the press. So
great "a difference does it make
whether the fourteen persons are
killed together in a train disaster or
are killed separately in so many
solitary tragedies caused directly, no
doubt, by their own carelessness, but
fundamentally due to certain happy
go-lucky recklessness and defiance Of
law and prudence which have become
a widely prevalent trait of the Amer
ican public.
These victims, who average fourteen
a day the year round, are not passen-
gers, nor employees, nor travellers on
intersecting highways, but trespass-
ers, who are walking along railroad
tracks or stealing rides on trains or
in some other way misusing railroad
/ property. If they we're passengers
their survivors would bring damage
suits against the roads. If they were
employees there would be a demand for
! improved safety appliances and for
stricter employers liability laws. II
they were killed at grade crossings
there would be a campaign for the
abolition of those death traps. But
they are trespassers, outside OF tho
/ protection of the law through their
own transgression, and therefore little
heed Is given to their fate
Yet in a humane and enlightened
country, where attempts at suicide are
severely punished and where pre-
cautions for the safety Of those who
! do not care for themselves are pre-
scribed by law, it does seem as though
something might be done to check and
materially to diminish this daily
slaughter There are warnings against
| trespassing, but they are scorned.
There are laws against it, but they are
not enforced. The notion prevails that
a railroad is a public highwa- for
] pedestrians as well as for trains; or
else that II is a clever and commend
able thing to defy its rules and to
trespass on its lines. If it is not pos
sible to correct this error through an
appeal to common sense, it might be
possible to do 50 through stringent
legislation vigorously enforced. Sup
pose, for example, that every person
found trespassing on a railroad were
regarded and treated as though
potentially attempting suicide?

William Jennings Bryan who victory.
showed remarkably poor Judgment when he went into
Ohio and attacked Governor Harmon, Democrat who,
IN a State normally Republican, was reelected Cover
nor by 100000 majority. Mr. Bryan is Democratic
destrucionlst while Governor Harmon has proved him
self TO be Democratic constructionist Therefore it is
not to be wondered at that Governor Harmon in reply
ing to Mr. Bryans attack should say: HAS it come
TO pass the Democratic party that winning repeated
victories in its counts nothing for man,
while repeated defeats gives another the right TO die
tate its course limit It's choice list Of egibes
prepared by himself?" That plain talk If it
means anything at all it is that Governor Harmon
aud his friends purpose fighting Mr.. Bryan from the
drop of the hat in the Baltimore convention. It is
doubted however. thai their efforts will result
in the Democratic donkey being relieved of its back
breaking Bryan load.
