~ By any means entirely emotional.

There are many who feel that the

What would Jesus do in this case?"
What would he say about that?" are

Shows Decrease
InsBoiler Accidents

A STEADY decrease from year to year
in. the number of persons killed or i'm
jured by locomotive boiler explosions or
other engine accidents is shown in the
annual report of Chief Boiler Inspector
Frank McManamy of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, made public to-
day.
The report says thirteen persons were
killed and 4sT injured by explosions or
other engine accidents during the last
fiscal year. as against twenty-three
deaths and Ga injuries in 1914; thirty-siX
deaths and s11 injuries IN 1918; and nine
ty-one deaths ana ZOOS injuries in 1912
More rigid inspection and the wedding
out of defective locomotives is assigned
as the cause for the reduction OF
deaths and injuries.
Out of "a, AS locomotives inspected, g.
443 were found defective. Although this
percentage is high, 1t is less than that
of last year, when defects were detected
in two-thirds of the engines inspected
or the 81, ,443 defective engines, 2.027 were
ordered out of commission entirely. Last
year 1856 locomotives were ordered out
of service.

Roosevelt Candidacy
Story Puts Politicians
Here in State of Daze

Politicians here are again in a state
Of dazc because OF reports that Colonel
Roosevelt will become an avowed. can
didate for the Republican nomination
for President
New York stories that he will throw
his hat into the ring about March /,
after trip to the West Indies, serve
to keep up the buzz of talk and spec
uiatIon about the coloneIs intentions.
These stories say he will make All
active effort to get delegates in the
early primaries.
The statements that he will enter
the primaries do not coincide with the
understanding here. which Is that lie
has no intention of getting into the
Republican primaries. 1t will be- a
great surprise to some candidates for
the Republican nomination If the colo
mel enters the field.
There are sufficient doubt and Won
derment about what the colonel is So-
ing to do to make the situation pc
culiaTly interesting and unusual.
The numerous stories appertaining to
him since the Gary dinner have caused
great uneasiness in quarters close to
the White House Anxiety is manifest
among Administration lieuteHants as to
just what Roosevelts plans are
Outwardly, the Wilson aides are say
ing Roosevelt would be easy to beat.
But under the surface there is a real
fear of him, and every scrap of infor-
nation which can be gathered as to
what his purposes may be Is being
grabbed up and serutiniZed.

the principles of humanity which were
thus wilfully violated have beer
