The Hurried Exodus From Mexico.

Experiences of refugees from Mexico, re-
ported here. suggest that this government
has not been quite provident In making
arrangements for the transportation Of
these people, who are leaving the land
Of revolution in response to It's warning
that they should return without delay to
the United States. The tone Of the on
cial statement sent out to consuls, to be
transmitted to all Americans living within
Mexico. was sufficiently peremptory to
warrant an immediate exodus. In many
cases these people undoubtedly sacrificed
all they had OF q fixed nature in their
Mexican homes, and some reached the
coasts and the borders in q state Of des-
titution. Was there such haste about the
departure that it was necessary to prompt
1t by Official warning before provision
could be made for the speedy and COM
Portable transport of these refugees to
the American shores? Evidently no hostil-
tiles were imminent, else the President
message to Congress would have convey
ed the suggestion In explicit terms. It is
reported that practically no arrangements
were made in advance for the carriage
OF these hundreds Of Americans from the
seaports. save their shipment on board Of
merchant vessels, already well filled and
affording very poor accommodations for
the additional passengers. thus hastily
summoned. By delaying the official noti-
fication for a fortnight the vessels Of the
United States. cruisers, transports and
Golfers, might have been utilized. Later
must inevitably come reaction of bad
feeling on the part OF the people :. ho ha,- :

More "Rear-End" Manslaughter.

Ideal conditions contributed to the
rear-end wreck on the New Haven rail-
road this morning at Wallingford: Fog,
two fast. heavy expresses and total lack
of any automatic checking device to
keep the rear train out Of the danger
! zone Such conditions have resulted In
collisions and sacrifice of life SO often
that in the subsequent investigations"
the only public interest is manifested
in the collateral details. Did the engi-
neer see the warning signal? Did he
run past it in order to make time?
Was 1T obscured? Was the regulation
about sending the flag" back GER
tain distance observed?
Until the automatic cutoff or train
stopping device is adopted these rear
end wrecks will continue. There is no
avoidance of the responsibility for the
deaths that are annually occurring as
messengers who have trusted their lives
to the railroad mana cement are ground
to bits under the wheels of On-rushing
locomotives plunging into the cars in
which they are riding. 1t rests
squarely upon the officials of the rail-
roads. whatever may have been the
lapses of engineers and conductors in
officials refuse to adopt safety devices
because they may interfere with the
free movement Of trains. They may
get out of order They may not
work in hard weather All sorts of
excuses are offered, especially that
there is no absolutely reliable device
now available. Forsooth, the railroads
have never tried to find a proper auto
wanted to find one. They have turned
inventors off with the advice to perfect
their mechanism before they ask for
hearings. And the inventors, being
short of funds. as inventors usually
are. struggle along and ultimately fade
away and the possibilities of their de-
vices for the saving of human lives
are wasted.
This is a matter for Congress to take
in hand without further delay. The pub
lie. has waited for the railroads to act
and without results. The Interstate COM
merce commission has not acted definite
ly, though at times closely approaching
the point of a positive recommendation.
1t calls for congressional enactment,
positively requiring all interstate rail-
roads to equip their lines within a GER
tain reasonable time limit with some
device for the prevention of rear-end col
lisions that will meet the approval Of
the commission. That will do the bust
ness, and nothing short of that will &C
complish results. Until such law is
passed these frequent slaughters will
occur.
Suppose the President of the United
c$o$a xr.t,o SO, 30 -
this very route. had been a passenger on
the wrecked train this morning and had
been injured. or killed. Would not Con-
gress, even at this hour. be stirring in
the matter? Why not act for the sake of
the tens of thousands of plain citizens
who are hourly exposed to death through
the failure of the railroads TO equip their
lines with safety systems?

Peace in Evolution.
From the Chicago Tribune.


Wise words, most profitable for the med
itation Of the American nation, are the
following from the lips Of Viscount Hal
dane, lord high chancellor of Great Brit
tin. ut would be very sanguine per-
son. he said, when asked his opinion of
the influence of the peace palace at The
Hague, ''who can see the dawn Of inter-
national peace. 1t is useless to look ahead
toward the permanent cessation of war in
the near future. We can only do our best
and trust to the progress Of opinion. The
coming Of the millennium Of peace must
be an evolution like everything else, but
some day we must come to the realization
of the fact that we can settle our diff
ferences in a better way than by quarrel
ing with each other" Americans need
the hint badly. We are national opti-
mists. because we have been favored by
nature and by fortune. The pressure of
imminent national peril does not compel
us to look facts in the faco or closely to
follow changing conditions. We aye IDEAL
istic as we'll as materialistic and CONNER
cial Therefore We neglect the need of
national defense and are over ready to
save money by believing in the millen-
MUM.
Peace on earth was preached two thou
sand years ago. Mr.. Carnegie is not go
ing to establish 1t over night.

Retrospect.

Oh, where are the lads that 1 knew in my
youth,
Whose clever attainments l loved to adj
mire!
They took all the prizes and left me, in
truth,
All hopeless Of gifts to which they
might aspire.
A number gained honors both lofty and
sure;
But others who seemed with fair for
tune to sail
Have drifted at last into ways insecure
And will do very well if they keep out
Of Jail.
The boy who would take all our marbles
away
And who knew all the sums in the old
'rithmetic
Came up into public attention one day
AS the man who made millions, but
made them too quick
The youth who would boldly stand up
and declaim-
We hope that our efforts to save him
won't fail.
The grafters mussed up his political game
And we're not at all sure that he won t
go to Jail!

I'M the New Orleans Times-Democrat.

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
Without fanaticism Of a certain sort,
progress would be impossible. The minds
Of men and women must be surcharged
with love Of q cause, or hatred Of a
wrong, else they will not put their all
into the fighting. The very origin of
the word fanatic connotes absorption
in a single idea, for the word is derived
from the Latin "fanum" "a temple) and
the "fanaticus' was supposed to be mad
dened by the divinity whose fame he fire.
quented. And it is quite certain that
now. as Of old, the motive power Of every
great propaganda is essentially religious,
even though the leaders call themselves
agnostics or atheists. No absolutely sell
fish or absolutely skeptical person, can
lead either the masses or the classes. Al
the core Of the true leaders being there
must be an idea to which he clings and
to which he will sacrifice all else with
q light heart. Parnell was cold, but he
loved Ireland with an all-consuming pas
sion: William III was cold. but he loved
Holland with . devotion that knew nc
bounds.
