DESERVING oE CREDIT.

That was a thoroughly political
 gathering at MomauguiIa this. week, and of decidedly partisan character
 yet the facts which were set forth
 by Cemptroller Dunn concerning the saving made to. the state from the .abolishnent of gratuities and the pay nient to the state treasury of fees re- ceiyed by his office are such as to be deserving of proper credit It simply means that in these instances the proper consideration has been, given to good business administration. It re- fleets an attitude which should always characterize the conduct of the states business It Is not a matter which should require the influence of any one party to obtain but should be rec ognized by every incumbent of office irrespective. of party
 It Is to be hoped that the practice of paying gratuities to' newspaper men and to attendants has been forever abolished. It was improperly con oeived and reflected upon both the giver and the taler. It was against the interest of good government and should have been done away with long ago. However much the need of econ omy helped this decision the question has been properly met and the dena- ocrats cannot be blamed for feeling satisfied at the course which was adopted and carried to success aided by the fair minded men of the as- sembly.

STYLE AND ACCIDENTS.

Just what will be the outcome of the investigation which the Pennsyl- vania railroad is making in the en- deavor to fix the responsibility of high heels and narrow skirts in the many accidents which befaH women on it's lines. while entraining or detraining, is awaited. Tn three days this month there have been nine mishaps in which this matter of wearing apparel is given as the cause. The railroad S desire is for the purpose of self pro- lection as we'll as for determining what part it should play in overcoming the difficulty.
 It becomes apparent that if certain accidents can be expected to happen with much frequency some action must be taken for the purpose of oveFcom = ing them through prevention. If the investigation which is being conducted results in establishing the certainty of the belief that adherence to style is the cause of the trouble, it is aues- tionab1e just how much it will relieve the railroad though common sense in cficates that a railroad system can hardly be expected to remodel it's en-
 tire equipment every time the style changes. Tn railroad is simply taking a step of protection for itself and at the same time calling attention to others most concerned that it might be we'll for them to profit from the obser vation. The railroad is at least caus- ing the matter to be given more thought and consideration.

FORCE OF THE MANN ACT.

From the revelations which were made in the trial of M. l. DiggS in Cal ifornia there could be no surprise at the verdict rendered by the jury, and there is reason to believe that the companion case will have a similar result It is not surprising that Cal- ifornia was much incensed at the ef- fort which had been carefully worked out to postpone the trial and the ad- ministration of justice and the out come substantiates the position which Federal Attorney McNaib took in be- half of immediate trial
 Not only to California but to the entire country is the outcome one of much importance It sets forth the force of the, Mann white slave act in higher court. means. that it is much stronger instrument for the fighting of Immortality than had been at ffrstJcon-
 sidered. The general interpretation placed upon the act was that it con- cerned only cases which would fall under the generally accepted term of white slavery. but the action before the federal court shows that it is broad enough to cover such cases as the Diggs- Caminettf escapade. fact which should operate to the better r1lent of conditions by the enforcement of the law. It gives the opportunity for demonstration as to which has the the greater and better effect in it's application, the federal or the state laws

vENezuEL&s WISE ACTION.

Indications substantiated by the re- port from Commander Long of the Des MoineS that the present disturbance in Venezuela has not been important and practically is finished" bear out the belief that that country has taken a common sense view of the uprising which Cipriano Castro precipitated upon them and he has been thrown down This must indicate most plain. ly to Castro that despite his own ego- tistical opinions about Venezuela be- ing unable to get along without him. that his efforts have been in vain and that he is not wanted Castro has been the means of vindicating the present government in that country and the result should be the strength ening of the present administration under Gomez.
 It would be a blessing to all the Latin-American countries if they could as quickly and positively dispose of their ambitious politicians who are only too glad to throw their country into a state of revolt for selfish purposes. In this instance Venezuela has adminis- tered the proper lesson and it would be an excellent thing if it is an indi- cation of what can be expected in the future, not only there but in other republics
 The exercise of just such good com mon sense is what all Latin America needs, and when it comes to time when change in the government is needed 1t should be accomplished in the proper manner, by the ballot and not by force of arms Venezuela's re- huke of Castro should have its good effect

HIGH SPEER

At time when there is such a craze for speed, it is doubtful If the ex- pressed opinion of George Westing- house, who is entitled to the term ex- pert will receive its proper consider alton even from the travelling public, when he declares that high speed trains are decidedly unsafe and that 45 miles an hour should be the limit for the persons who desire to travel in reasonable safety. According to this well known authority, to demand ex- cessive speed and then to demand the elimination of accidents and the fu- slrance of safety is to court danger and require an impossibflity. because the public does not realize what it is asking and II is a generally accepted fact that 1t is because there is a de- mand for the fast trains. and d profit .. able patronage of them, that they are maintained
 II Is a reasonable statement by MT. Westinghouse that when running at such rates as are often necessary to maintain schedules on the limited ex- presses no kind of an emergency brake or automatic signal will avail to give suitable protection against accidents. Ii simply means that those who will dance must pay the fiddler. The folly of great speed needs to be recognized in ths dessand for safety transporta sicn. For the purpose of insuring ~reater safety MT. Westinghouse sug- tests the fixing of maximum speed bv 'sw, and su3gests that it be made the subject of inquiry by the Interstate Commerce Commission. It is a matter which needs all the help it can receive.
