 When at Stamford, Conn.,, June i2 occurred the thirteenth terri blc accident in two years on the New Haven railroad, all this sud- denly became manifest to the dullest observer.
 The whole trend of comment then showed that enlightenment has come and With it such a de- mand for relief as will never again be silenced until the rail- road revolution is achieved. It was impossible, after this acci- dent, for the snug managers to put over the usual trick of blam- ing the engineer. All thinking men knew instantly that not the railroads underpaid and over worked servants were respOnsi- ble for this slaughter but the cal lOused financial eNploiters that have brought this once great en- tcrprisc to wreck.
 The blistering editorial in which the New York World brought the blame home, where it belonged, although it would have been impossible a year ago, now struck the exact chord of conviction in every reasonable mind, a conviction that not all the kept editors, press bureaus, and pen valets in the world will shake from this time On.--EX.

MIDDLE COURSES AND IMME-
 DIATE RESULTS.

PreSldtnt W llSOn was tnnNln- ced, when he decided upon the course to be pursued in dealing with Mexico, that the best results could be obtained by ignoring the demands of the hotheads in this country and the thrcats of the Huerta followers in Mexico. Events have supplied the full vin- dication of the wisdom of the presidents policy.
 War with Mexico is yet among the possibilities, but if it comes it will come only after every dip lomatic resource has been eX- hausted and when it is the result of deliberate action, instead of being born of passion and the re- sentiment of real OF fancird wrongs.
 Middle courses are never sat isfactory to those eager for i'm mediate results. President Wil- son was accused of pursuing a dilatOry policy, of being weak kneed and vacillating. It was pre- dicted that his special represen- tative, former Governor John Lind of Minnesota, would be re- fused an audience with Huerta, might not be allowed to land on Mexican soil and might even be killed. The president evidently knew Huerta's refusal to treat Mr. Lind with courtesy would be a confession of Huerta's weak ness. The president understood that liuerta'S expressed desire to ''Eick all crration'' was simply an appeal to the ignorance of the Mexican mob and not intended for serious consideration at Wash ington. The president realized the difference between idealiSm, Mexican and American, and the cold facts.
 Two courses were open to the United States when lluerta seized power and his predecessor was so conveniently "removed.' One was he traditional course of European governments to accept the accomplished fact with cyni- cal disregard of the manner of it's accomplishment. as London and Berlin and Paris did. The other was to refuse to accept Huerta on any terms. As Wash ington is not London, Berlin or Paris. we took a middle course.
 For the safety of American and other foreign residents in the Mexican capital we accepted fuerta as de factO ruler there, but by he sword only, and with no nt her Ir. We were rcstrain- ed from rejecting liuerta outright by the immediate rXigency, and because to have done so might have compelled Us to embark up- on an adventure of Mexican con- liutSl. Nt "'It lt'>tI II 'ilI according IIurrla any legal title tO power by our aversion to rul- CTS who have apparently wadcd in blood to a throne.
 The unSatiS factory middle course. then, was all that was np- en to President, Wilson unless he wanted to plunge the country in- to a conflict with Mexico. In face of inevitable criticism, he took the middle course and it has so far kept us out of an armed in- tervention which would probably develop into a war of conquest It has also kept our hands clean of the taint of aSSasSinat ion. It is a course that will be derided by cynical European diplomats and their American disciples. But it will probably be for the best in the end. Sometimes it requires higher degree of courage to avoid war than if does to invite one. rdsidenl Wilson has the right kind of courage. If a war comes, it will not be of hIs mak- ing.--Tacnma News.

PRESIDENT FAVORS
BIG APPROPRIATION
FOR NEW BUILDINGS
Chief Executive Urges on
Congressman Need for
Department Homes.

President Taft Is heartily In favor Of
appropriations for a new building for
the Geological Survey and believes that
money should be made available at once
for beginning the proposed fine struc-
lures on Fifteenth street and the Mall
for the Department of Justice and the
Department of State.
During his conference early this weeR
with Congressman Burnett, Shepard
and Austin, he not only made plain his
belief that the committee should be
liberal with appropriations for buildings
In the District, but went further and
pointed out the particular buildings that
he thought were necessary, LAYING
especial stress on the need of a new
and commodious structure for the Geo
logical Survey.
The National Capital should receive
generous treatment from Congress-, the
President believes, not only because OF
the demands of the Department., hut
because the National Capital Is en-
tirely at the mercy of Congress, and
should, eventually, become a model for
all other cities In his discussion with
the Congressman, President Taft made
his ideas plain along these lines.
There was no question of reprisal
through veto on the part Of the Presi-
dent II his suggestions were not fol-
lowed 1t Is believed that his frank
statement Will produce results and that,
in city which he viii leave In less
than two months. a Democratic Con-
gress will be more liberal with local
items In the public building bill. The
bill as now framed will carry about
$25,o 900.

SUGGEST new CAR
/. LINE AS SOLUTION
Of SERVICE TANGLE
President Hamilton Says
Company Will Build One
If Congress Acts.

Prospects of a new car line along
Eighteenth or Twentieth streets were
discussed last night at a hearing be-
fore the District Electric Railway Com
mission, between the Citizens Assoc
citation Of Chevy Chase, Connecticu:
avenue, and Kensington, Md, and the
Capital Traction Company.
Each of the citizens associations had
a different demand. The residents OF
Chevy Chase, represented by w. B,
Parker, requested express service be-
tween the Calvert street bridge and
Chevy Chase during rush hours, de-
claring they believed this would REM
edy matters all along the line. The
demand of the Connecticut Avenue As
ISOLATION was for express service be-
tween the Treasury and Chevy Chase
Heights. B. w. Parker, who made this
request for the association. also con-
tended this would solve the traffic
problem along the line The residents
of Kensington, through their spokes-
special car each morning, which they
claimed they could fill to its seating
capacity.
The Capital Traction Company was
represented by its president, George E.
Hamilton, and its chief engineer, J. H.
sired to give the residents of the out
lying districts the best service possible,
but added that to put additional cars on
the Fourteenth street line would force q
slower schedule and nigh endanger the
traffic along the street. The express
cars, he declared, would be no more
than special cars. and on account Of the
small Roadway between cars during
rush hours, would not accomplish the
desired reduction in time from the
suburbs into the city.
1t was shown, however. that In
very short time, with the present RAP
Id growth of the outlying districts,
some change must be made in the
car service, which already was de-
clared to be insufficient.
The officials of the railway said
some remedy would be found. but had
none to suggest at the present time
On the suggestion of Chairman EDDY,
of the commission, that a new car
line be built on some street parallei
to Fourteenth, Present Hamilton
said the company would agree to build
such a line, should the necessary
bill be passed by Congress authoriz-
ing them to do so.
G. E. Richardson was allowed one
week to file a petition for the CHEVY
Chase Association and the CapitaI
Railway Company was allowed an adj
ditionai week in which to file an
answer to this petition. The hearing
will be resumed on the 23rd- Com
