THE TROLLEY WRECK IN NEW BRITAIN

Occasionally the human equa- Hon." coupled with the elements enter into combination and cause serious injury. to individuals. These two, it appears at first glance caused the accident to the Hartford trolley last evening.
 The responsibility of the crew managing the trolley will be decided by the courts and it is not within the province of this newspaper to place blame upon anyone. Without question the frailty of human hands in managing the machine which we have invented for our own con- venience is to be taken into con- sideraton in connection with the ac- cidcnt, IL also is evident that poor vision because of the ice storm of last evening may have been con- tributing cause though humanity is expected to make allowance for the elements when guiding transporta- ton units as is the case at sea where strict rules are laid down for the procedure of ships during fog.
 We can thoroughly sympathize with these who were hurt. One man at least suffered such an injury that his means of earning a livelihood will be impaired others received painful hurts and will be confined to their beds for some time. All of them are deserving of sympathy.
 And it comes not amiss to point out warning to all operators of vehi- cles of every kind. Man guides ma chimes capable of the greatest dam age to himself and to others. He controls much more applied force than he could possibly generate within himself and often he does so carelessly without thought of what an unfortunate combination of the human element and the ma turaI element might Bring about. Speed is the desired goal of too many of us in these days. It should always be secondary at least to safety.

CORPORATE INCOME AND THE NATIONS BUSINESS

That New England manufacturing is facing strong competition from the middle west has been a recog nized fact for several decades, al though this section holds its own in several important lines despite rapid development of manufactures elsewhere.
 Conditions over which New Eng land has had no control have operated to the benefit of western manufacturers The day when near ly all manufacturing was done in the east and the west was an ex- clusive consuming market, passed as the west began to be built up. Chicago began its existence as a trading and commercial center. and has continued as such: but 1t also is an enormous manufacturing cen ter. The same development can be traced in other large western cities and states.
 Development of manufactures in various parts of the country is in dicated nowhere more succinctly than in the report of the income tax bureau few days ago This re- port lists the amounts of corpora tion income and personal income by states. The former, for purposes of ascertaining the relative manu- featuring prosperity of various states and groups of states, is more important titan the latter, as per sons owning shares in various con- cerns do not necessarily live in the state harboring the corporations; neither are all corporations manu- featuring institutions. But the fig ures adequately indicate the amount of business done.
 The corporation income list shows the following figures by states and groups of states:

TARIFF TINkERlNG HELD IN ABETANCEn

Tinkcring with the tariff has been one of congress- most cherished pre- negatives. But there won't be any Of this indoor sport this year.
 administration leaders have con- cluded that there shall be no changes before the congressional elections of 1916. The belief is para mount that tamppring with the tariff always adversely affects the Republican party in the following elections,
 In the first place, it puts the tariff in the spotlight and gives the Democrats something to shoot at or spout at, depending on the point of view. Letting it rest in peace near ly achieves the result of making the busy voters forget there is a tariff
 Not even the elimination Of the flexible provisions of the present la" will be undertaken.
 Chairman Green of the House ways and means committee said re- gently that the flexible clauses of the law do not work, and instead ot taking the tariff out of politics, they cmbroil it deeper in partisanShip' But the G. o. r. can stand certain amount of knocks over the flexible features of the law so long as the blows do not get too serious. By deftly managing the unfiexibiltics Of the law it is assumed that no great damage will result.
 A curious effect of the flexible pro- visions of the tariff is that before the President can make a change the tariff commission must compare costs of domestic and foreign production of any article under scrutiny, and in virtually every case it has been found impossible to ascertain foreign costs definitely. Even cotton goods have defied such compilation, although American manufacturers have suf- fercd considerably through impor, tations of this product.
 Western congrossmen are nc longer keenly disposed toward ia, vorable tariff legislation, which makes it easier to carry out the let well-enough-alone policy. The west, crners for a time thought the tariff could raise farm prices, but have discovered that the prices in the world marts, due to foreign wheat and rye shortages, worked better than the tariff.

CAVE WONDERLANDS IN KENTUCKY

The tragedy in the Kentucky cave, which has occupied the sym pathetic attention of the nation for a week, has lent renewed interest in the underground cayerns of that remarkable region.
 Mammoth Cave, the largest in the world, is surrounded by an endless chain of subterranean passages, one of the most noted of which, Crystal Cave, Floyd Collins is credited with having discovered.
 Mousando of tourists visit Nam moth Cave every year, but not any where like the number that would visit it were the great natural won der advertised like Niagara Falls or the Grand Canyon in Arizona. The three form the trio of greatest na- tural wonders in America.
 A tourist can do" Niagara Falls and vicinity in a few days or weeA in which time he can "see To do" the Grand Canyon requires much longer, al though most tourists center their attention around the most available points of vantage and make no at tempt to explore the entire canyon and vicinity, which would require at least month But 1t is doubt full if Mammoth Cave can be ex- plored entirely by any human being in that time - indeed, the inner most rcccsses of the cave are said to be still unexplored. It has 15O miles of caverns which have been visited by tourists and natives, but the entire cavern is believed to con- tain approximately 500 miles of subtcrranean passages.
 When we visited the cave there were notices nearby that its opera ton was under the jurisdiction of 8 court and that suggestions were not desirable. In 1916 the surviving heir of the family owning the cave was an aged man, and there was much speculation at the time as to what would become of the cave at his death. We do not know whether by this time he is still in the land of the living. Suggestions have been made that the state purchase the cave and operate it as a natural park, but other cave owners nearby are opposed to the plan. There was also a report that the Louisville X Nashville railroad wanted to buy the cave and attract the attention ! of the nation 10 it through adVer- ising. The railroad could with right be called the Mammoth Cave route" but even this has not been attempted. so far as we are aware
 The astounding stalactite and stalagmite formations indicate how long it took nature to construct thcsc wonderful underground cathe- drals. It takes five years to form a deposit the thickness of wafer upon q stalactite. The stalactites in the Kentucky caves required many thousands of years to form The rossiIized remains of extinct animals in the rocks arc of surpasslng value 1 to scientists.

 The south is showing much ac- tirity, these figures would indicate. North Carolina, once comparing but slightly with New England in tex tiles, shows up with $a9,169,237, do- ing more corporate business than Georgia, with s56,774,G36.
 The four lowest states in the Union respecting such income are Arizona, North and South Dakota, and Wyoming, ranging from three to nearly five millions of dollars each.
 The far west is heard from by California with $3O3.04S,110-neary half as much as all of New Eng land-and Washington and Alaska, with S60,09S,6S4.
 All of which goes to show that in keeping an eye open for business. New England cannot afford to sleep. There are plenty of indications tbat New Englanders are well aware of conditions and are well prepared to meet them. The time is past when New England can be the great com mercial beehive of the nation in view of inevitable growth elsewhere; but the prestige of these states Tn several important lines must not be permitted to be injured.

sT. VALENTINES CRUSH

(By Wallace NJ. Bayiiss) Young Valentine. before he was
 saint, Once saw a dainty maiden. modest,
 quaint, And lost his heart kerflop! as fellows
 do When some young female vision
 heaves in view. Now Val was quite religious, even
 then; Instead of running round at nights
 with men He used to stay at home and medi-
 tate, And so at thinking he'd become first
 rate. Said he: T must invent some way,
 by gee. To make that wondrous maiden
 think of me-" It took him sixteen nights with
 paint and glue, With lace and silk and colored
 paper, too. To make his love epistle to his taste, And then he sent 1t to the maid post
 haste. She swooned with pleasure when
 she looked at 1t. You'd say it literally made a hit. He didn't sign the thing, just let it
 go Anonymously hoping she would
 know That 1t was he who thought her 50
 divine, And told his love through this first
 valentine. 5- Instead the poor girl promptly died,
 for she Was overcome by curiositee. His story teaches this, beyond all
 doubt,-- Enclose your card or cut the darned
 thing out.

London, Feb. 15-The unemployed at Wivenhoe, near Colchester, have found a patron in an aged wealthy American, Bayard Brown, who lives on his yacht Valfreya, high and dry in a local dock, and who made a substanti4 donation to the unem- ployed Christmas fund. Some years ago Mir. Brown made similar dona- ton to the unemployed at Bright lingsea, where his yacht was then laid up.
 Mir. Brown has been somewhat of 8 mystery in English coast towns, as his yacht seldom puts to sea and it's owner rarely leaves its deck.
