EXPLOSIVES IN GARBAGE CANS
MENACE TO DISPOSAL PLANT

People should be careful Of what
they put in their garbage" said
Charles lie Baron, superintendent Of
the sewage disposal plant. often we
receive sealed gasoline cans and other
explosive material that may do great
damage TO the plant and may injure
the men working there.
These cans are sometimes buried
deep in q wagon load Of garbage sad
other refuse and are not discovered
until after they have been thrown in
to the furnaces. While there is no
fluid in these sealed cans, yet the gas
remains in them and can cause severe
explosions
Sometimes cartridges are thrown in
Now, one or two cartridges would not
do any damage unless they happened
TO explode upward while the covers are
off the furnaces. but If several cart
ridges were thrown in at one time
they might cause great damage"

The Railroad Speed Evil.

persons The train. IT appears. was three
minutes behind schedule and was travel.

afterward by the chief engineer Of the
state public utilities commission ted to
the conclusion that a defective bolt snap
ped under the high speed. causing the
rails to spread. An official statement by
the railroad company. issued later. laid
the blame for the wreck upon something
giving way under the train and dropping
into the switch" The obvious fact is.
however. that the train was going at too
high a rate OF speed to warrant the use
of the crossover. and IL is concluded tina.
the accident was attributable solely to
this cause. as In the case OF the wreck at
Westport last summer which caused the
death Of seventeen persons and. ii is also
pointed out, the wreck at Bridgeport. a
year previous which caused twenty
deaths. Public interest in this matter

that have been mentioned. have occurred
within a stretch of fifteen miles. and 1t Is
concluded now that the line is not built
strong enough to stand the high speeds
that are developed at this point.
Recently the Pennsylvania and New
York Central railroads. taking warning
from the wrecks evidently caused by high
speed, heightened the running time OF
their fastest trains between New YORK
and Chicago, and other railroads have cut
of some Of their most widely advertised
trains for the same reason. There has
been no public protest against these
changes. In fact, the public has hearo
OF them with relief. and it Is PLAIN that
there Is no justification for the often re-
peated dogma of the railroad companies
that public demand for high speed is ac-
countable for the tremendous PAGES OF
the railroad service. The fac, is that
most OF the train speeding is done Tor
purposes of competition and advertising
and the people will ride on these trains
IL they can afford the price, for the sake
Of the luxury of exclusive travel and TO
take advantage of the slight economy OF
time afforded, trusting to the railroads TO
operate their lines in safety. There Is no
hardship whatever in the lengthening OF
the schedule time

The New Militia Order.

time has elapsed before organizing the

been placed into effective correlation with
the War Department for the quickest pos

Both north and south the militia compa-
nies then in existence were of virtually
no value whatever for purposes OF field
duty in the matter Of organization on a
large scale They We're merely small

tionship and promises q maximum OF ef-

1t may to the public at first glance
seem a small matter to organize the
militia forces into grand divisions, six
teen In number. covering the entire coun-
try. But in point Of military prepared
ness this Is the most important step that
has been taken since any work whatever
has been undertaken by the national gev-
ernment toward utilizing the National
Guard as an effective lighting force I'm
der this arrangement 1t will be possible

In short time in perfect relationship to
the regular army. Sixteen headquarters
are designated. each the center OF tao
teal unit, having its own storage depot
and business center Through these head
quarter points the War Department will
keep in constant close relationship With
the guard. will insure the maintenance OF
a uniform standard OF equipment and dis
cipline. and will. in case Of need. be able
within a few hours to assemble an army
or a series Of armies. if need be, capable
of taking the field at once and maintain
ing an active campaign without long and
costly delay.
On this basis the militia force becomes
a potent agency of protection. 1t will. OF
course, be necessary continually to drill
and train the local units. to keep them
mustered to the fullest possible strength,
to establish the standard Of army disci-

greater burden will be put upon the men,

BY the new plan they will be given rally

with what officers they will be called
upon to serve. There can be no reason to
look for any but the heartiest co-opera-
tin between the federal and the state
forces under this new arrangement.

4 Limit to the Abuses.

From the New York Tribune.
The "mimeograph case" decided by the
Supreme Court last year and the bath
tub trust case decided by the Supreme
Court yesterday together tell what the
holder of patent may do to restrain
trade and what he may not. In the for
mer case it was held that the patentee of
the mimeograph might require buyers of
his device to use with 1t a certain kind of
ink made by himself. To use another
kind of ink was declared to be an in
fringement of his patent In the second
case 1t was held that the patentee of a
tool used in manufacturing enamel bath
room fixtures could not extend his pa ent
to cover the sale price or conditions of
sale of articles made with that tool. The
distinction seems to be that the right
conferred upon a patent holder. while
very broad, does not extend beyond the
article patented. Monopolistic practices

The British Parliamentary Situation.

The tempest in the mar mentarv tea
pot has subsided. The British unionists
having made a great row over the at
tempt of the ministry to secure the recon-
sideratien OF a snap vote whereby the
home rule bill was materially amended
now consent to this motion. put In a
somewhat different way than first pre-
posed. and in the course of a few days
the bill will be shaped to conform to the
governments wishes. and the debate viii
proceed. The affair viewed from the pres
ent perspective is somewhat ludicrous,
but nevertheless has its Significance in
disclosing the ugly temr er which under
lies the now restored superficial calm.
Evidently the ministry has majority for
home rule on which 1t can depend for the
passage of the bill. But the unionists are
alert. and it would not be surprising at
any stage to see another embarrassment
for the government. with the possible
consequence OF dissolution. Other meas
ures are to follow in the carrying out of
the liberal -labor-Irish program, and the
present session will be prolonged for
some months If the unionists feel that
they can trip the ministry on one OF these
and weaken the coalition. they may util-
re the full extent of the veto power OF
the lords which remains under the So
called parliamentary bilr' which was
passed year or so ago. Under this sys-
tenn the lords can check any measure for
two years after the first passage by the
commons and it would obviously be the
most likely program of the unionists To
try TO keep the home rule bill of the
statute books as hong as possible in the
hope of failure of the ministry and an
appeal to the country, with general
election returning q unionist majority.

The Elder Government Workers.

Speaker Clarks statement regarding

what the Speaker regards as the properly

civil pension system and that he hopes
FOR the evolution Of some method where

the difficulties in the way OF such a
project.
1t is not to be believed that Speaker
Clark is an advocate of limited tenure
for any class of government employees
who are appointed by any seiective
process based upon merit. To propose
such limit. or to urge the abandonment
Of the examination system in the appoint

be to advocate a return to the patronage
method of filling the governments situa-

ferentiation, under the examination sys-

to tenure? Why should a chemist or an

tanned on the permanent roll when file
clerk or a bookkeeper Is rated as tenn

No doubt the situation is difhcult
There Is a prejudice In some quarters
against any form of civil pensions. AT
the same time the younger employees Of
the government do not relish the pros

what can be done? Is the government
TO push all these superannuated employees

fates without thought for their welfare
after they have served faithfully and
vaiuably for many years. Is the United
States to occupy a position far behind

and humane provision for their elder

such thought as this, and there Is ne rea-

In q spirit of mischief. He will help Mr..

He will be thorn in Mr.. Wilson's side
from the outset. He hopes for success.
ful administration In the interests OF the
party for 1915 He has his own eyes on
that year. and would not grieve over
multiplication of Mr.. Wilson's difficulties.
And so on.
While some things must await develop
ments. there are other things already
settled. AS for instance: Mr., Wilson owes
his nom nation to Mr.. Bryan, and his
election In part to the support of men
who since 1886 have been classed as
Bryanites. While the republican divisions
did much for the Baltimore nominee. they
did not do all. Mr.. Wilson as candidate
was standing as q man who had hailed
Mr.. Bryan as the one fixed point In the
party's history for sixteen years. and was
rated. therefore. as thoroughly acceptable
to Mr.. Bryan. Mr.. Bryan stumped for
him, and was the star Of the campaign.
Does not this give Mr.. Bryan the right
to be deeply interested in Mr. Wilson's
plans? Whether invited into the cabinet
or net, should he not feel at liberty to
offer suggestions to Mr.. Wilson?
And not only that. Though not q MEM
her Of Congress-. is he not warranted in
concerning himself about the business Of
that body. and should he not offer sus-
gestions to it? He has served In the
~ L.. hoo
helped prepare tariff bill. and halped
pass it through the House. He was one
Of the fashioners of the ill-fated Wilson
bill. and saw It mauied out Of all reeog-
milton by Mr. German and his protection
coadjutors IN the Senate. So that when
Mr.. Bryan talks tariff In connection with
what the next Congress should do to the
Payne law he has special claims on at
tention.
OF course, as everybody knows, Mr..
Bryans relations with Mr.. Clark are
strained. to put the matter mildly. And
his relations with MT. Underwood might
be closer, and probably would be II he did
not regard the Alabamian as near
republican on the tariff question. The
duty on raw wool proposed by Mr.. Under
wood In the bill he put through the House
revising the wool schedule Of the Payne
law destroyed Mr.. Bryan's confidence in
Mr. Underwood as a tariff reformer.
Forthwith, although the letter U Is near
the end Of the alphabet. Mr. Underwood
was put at the head Of Mr.. Bryan's black
list, and stands there today.
Still there must be union somehow II
the triumphant democracy is to stand.
The republicans have just given a strik-
ing exhibition Of what party division
means, invites, and receives.
