Dependability Uncertain.

This n obvious from the many
rexretfable accidents that have &C.
urred At railway crossings protected
by signals Of this type. This then
raises the question OF how much
reliance the motorist is justified in
placing In the lack of warning of such
signals.
For example, as a general PROPOSE
ton Of law IL Is the duty of the motor
ist In crossing a railway to use due
care. and IL the situation demands II to
stop, look and listen, before getting
on the tracks. II then the crossing
10 protected by an automatic signal, is
the motorist justified in assuming that
IL the bell is not ringing the way is
clear. In other words how is the duty
of the motorist to stop, look and listen
affected by the fact that the automatic
ssignal is not sounding when the cross
ing is approached?
The law books contain a number of
cases involving this point, but owing
to the facts that each case was
necessarily decided on the particular
facts involved they are difficult of
classification except as to results.
However, the weight of authority
seems to hold that the presence of an
automatic signal does not justify the
motorist in relying solely upon it for
warning.
That il such a signal is not giving
| a warning, the motorist has the right
ITO rely to only a limited measure on
his fact. But the absence Of the bell
inging will not excuse the exercise
~bf reasonable amount of prudence on
the part of the motorist. In other
words, even though the signal is not
!. giving a warning. the mOtorist is
bound to use such care in addition that
q prudent man would use under the
same circumstances.
Prudence First.
It follows that in the majority of
cases where 1t has been shown that
the motorist dashed over the crossing,
presumably relying solely upon the
fact that the bell was not ringing, and
INJURY followed, he has been denied a
recovery. Or his representative has
thus been denied, for in a number of
these cases the motorist has lost his
life.
So, to sum up: The prudent mo-
uorist should not rely solely upon the
lack of warning given by the auto
matte signal at a railway crossing. If
the bell is not ringing II merely
amounts to an indication that there
il no train approaching. There is
nothing definite about IL that will
justify the motorist in disregarding all
sother precautions such as stopping,
looking, and listening.
| And the reading OF these cases on
Ihe point leads to the conclusion that
!. tnless the crossing is an open one,
permitting a clear view of the track
each way, a good rule to follow is to
totally disregard a silent automatic
signal. Look and listen by all means,
and IL the view is INSTRUCTED, stop, or
at any rate approach the tracks in
such manner that the car can be
stopped In the clear If a train bears
down upon 1t. Take no chances. Do
not rely solely upon a silent signal for
safety, for it does not guarantee
safe passage either in fact or in law.

DANGEROUS POLITICAL TYPES.

THERE are two political typea who ore m

seeking 20 capitalize the Ignorance ana the
prejudices of an electorate. appeals 10 the
b..A.t .i.rsnt. Of human nainra In order 20
acquire vast official authority and thus turn
the englnery OF the state TO selfish advantage.
The other. either arousinE a class conscious
feeling or taking advantage OF such feeling al
ready extant poses AZ the especial friend and
advocate Of what Il conoeives to be. the most
numerous class. thus injecting tho most indo-
fsnsIbls elements into a political campaign
and setting Sfoot tho factors which eventually
precipltate revolution
These two characters are dangerous for they
are proyorbially dishonest. universally un-
worthy OF the confidence OF any man. no mat.

oenary 10 4 degree that IL contompublo or
spurred on by a fanatical zeal based on lgno-
rance or that mere modoum Of knowledge and
Intelligent reasoning which Is worse than Grass
Ignorance, And II is amazing indeed that not
wthstandlng the whole ken Of human history
teaches the untrustworthlnese OF such leaders.
they continue to this day able TO muster for
midable following. particularly In those periods
when the call is for men Of dependable charac.
