4 ee ’ f THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.¢., WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 27, 1890; THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTO ee < ‘The serious accident on the Metropolitan branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad last eveuing, by which three persons were killed, was due incidentally to the carciessness of @ switchman, but primarily to the failure of the railroad company to provide a double track on this importaat read. The company some years ago, after a series of disastrous accidents on this single track road involving the loss of many lives and the destruction of a large amount of property. were driven to undertake the long delayed work of double tracking the road from Washington to Point of Rocks. The work after unconscionable delays was com- pleted from Washington to Silver Spring— seven miles—and another patch of double track of a fow miles, from Rockville to Gaith- ersburg, was laid; but then came a change in the railroad management and the work of double tracking the remainder of the road was abruptly suspended. The accident yesterday was at Germantown station on the single track | part of the road. | The present management of the road have | made many improvements, and especially for | the accommodation of local travel, but they | have failed to see the necessity of putting a double track along the whole line from Wash- ington to the Point of Rocks. The road forms such an important link in the line of western travel, and its business bas grown to such large proportions that there is an imperative need for a double track, both in the interests of the public aud of the railroad company. ——<— a Social and economic influences draw men into towns and cities. The disposition to urbanize our poptlation is on the increase. A bundred years ago the proportion of city to country population was as one to twenty-five. The census of 1390 shows that it is now as one to three. As most of the great men in Amer- fean history were born and bred on the farm the anxious inquirer wants to know what we are to @o for great men when the urban swallows up entirely the country population. Tux SraR refers this inconvenient questioner to the man who figures up all malthusian problems and convinces himself that the world is not going to have stores enough after awhile to supply the absolutely necessary wants of food, fuel und Civilization, The practical person does not bother himself with the unpractical schemes of the philosophers, The world will get along somehow. $$$ <a ——____ Col. Bill Capeller, a republican potitician of the great state of Ohio, has discovered lapse in the policy of the democratic gerrymandering legislators, or thinks he and proposes to | handle it for its full value. ‘This lapse consists | in the entire exclusion of two or three town- | ships, by the metes and bounds designated in the law making the reapportionment. This Will invalidate the whole bill if the colonel can | prove his point, and nothing will be left the legislature but to hold an extra session and do the thing as properly as a gerrymander can be done. oo Representative Mills is making speeches from the stump in Illinois and is immoiating the re- publican party on the blazing altar of his righteous indignation, so to speak, with great ability and eciat. And yet this extract from the report of the speech at Greenup is susceptible of @ cruel misconstruction. It reads: “The farmers cheered until they were hoarse when Mr. Mills coneluded.” —— —— If Senator Ingalls were wandering through the arid wastes of Kansas, where the sun fairly fries the eggs on the egg plant and the grass- Boppers die in the harness; and if his mouth were so dry and hot that the adjectives of bis speech exploded on his lips, there is not a Farmers’ Alliance man im the entire state who would offer him a drink of cold water, or any- thing else. Notadrop. For the Farmers’ al- liance has set its face against Ingalls, and Mr. Ingalls with ever-recurring constancy comes back to the Senate and smiles his apple blos- som smile and sings his low sweet song of un- disturbed contentment. oo The colored men of Alabama are now in pos- session of a plan which completely outshadows the sub-treasury plan of the Farmers’ Allianc They are holding a meeting at Aniston today to. prepare a pélition to Congress praying for a government loan of 1,000 each to every col- ored man, to be secured by a twenty-year mortgage on a farm. “Neming him” is an English house of com- mons procedure performed by the speaker, It is done by resolution in the United States House and the mover secures bis object when the names are read by the clerk. The com- mous “naming” squelches the obstreperous member; the Representatives naming does not, at least not immediately, oo The new contract labor bill is better than ex- isting law in one respect at least. It provides that the act shall not apply to persons engaged in certain occupations who should have been exempt under the law in being regularly or- dained ministers of the gospel, learned pro- fessors in colleges and seminaries, professional artists. lecturers, actors, singers and servants traveling with their employers. $$ Whether it be a quorum, an election return or a census returu that is counted, there is some dissatisfaction somewhere with the result. The census counter, it is alleged, docs not Operate always to bring out the same figures from the addition of the same enumerator’s list, True? If so, why? Who bewitched the machine? ee If the Kansas Farmers’ Alliance gets the Con- gressman in which it hopes to get it will make lifes burden to him every time there is a drouth, or a cyclone, or a grasshopper blizzard, or an original package flood. $$ Now La Fayette’s statue has arrived, the question what will be doue with it is more in order than ever. It is a question of Clark Mills | and Jacksonian simplicity versus the French group of liberty and foreign fancy trimmings. —<—<—<—— The democrats of the tenth Ohio district are bound to cover all the points with their candi- date for Congress. His name is Smith, he is in ex-member, a tariff reformer anda Farmers’ Alliance man. —— ae Secrotary Blaine telegraphed a very friendly and sympathetic message to the McKinley con- vention yesterday, but said nothing about ree- iprocity. That is why the mossage was friendly and sympathetic. ——— In the midst of strikes. cholera alarms and the harvest of congressional nominating con- ventions, it must not be forgotten that Chicago ig still out of site on the world’s fair location. ———— Mr. McKinley will like it even better if bis gerrymandered district will do half as well as | his spontaneous convention did yesterday. $$$ The cymical Baltimore American says that "gr, Depew has just as many chances for the Peesi- deney as he ever had. $$$ Will the Force bill be electrocuted Tyecember 20th oF simply hung up? —————— ———= Taz Tuaoxsox.
