At the Westport wreck; the daragging of the wooden coaches over the het coals from the engine, and the ignition of the gas which lights the cars, caused the destruction of the wooden ones, and whatever loss of life there was from fire. Had the cars all beeri of 4téel thls added fire Horror wauld have Heen overcome. The change from wooden to steel cars should be carried on as fast as possible for the safely of the pas- | sengers, This, at least, should be done on the fast express trains, which run | at a mile a minute rate. In nearly every wreck of comsequence, fire is one of the attending dangers. Steel cars Wwill overcome it, and while the expense Would be large to make a complete change of equipment at once, | it should be brought dbout, if only! gradually, It is @ veform which is| needed and liable to take the form of legislafion unless railroads show the| disposftion to put their surplus cash | into such improvement of cars. The danger of Wwooden cars must be well knowh to the railroad companies and expéfise stands in the way of the change, but when the lives of the traveling public are endangered the Arst thought should be for safety. CONSERVING COAL LANDS. An Interesting expeéeriment in the conservation of the natural resources of the country is to be tried, out for the first time in the coal lands of ‘Wyaming, owned by the government, How best’to get the most from these lands without playing inte the hands of private corporations and giving away rights which will develop untold waalth has been a problem long under consideration. It has finally been de- | cided to lease a large portion of the| coal lands to private companies, the | lease covering the tract ¢f lamnd on| which the experiment is to be tried, | aad, in addition, there will be paid to the government a royalty on each ton | mined, with the understanding that | lnaees cannét be sub:let, and members ef congress or government officials can have no part therein. Fof some titne, the best way to han- dle the leasing of public lands has beeén iunder consideration, and after deciding that it would not be feasi- ble to carry it out through municipali- ties, the direct lease to the coal con- cerns was determined upon. There is| 43 imexhaustible supply of coal ih Wy- | oming, totaling up, geologists say, 400 billjon tons, so that the experiment will meah the opening up of an important fleld, Both from its effect upon the coal business and for the future guid- ance of conservation plans the step | Wwill b watched with areat interest bert entered bearing aloft his plunder. “With your permission,” he said, with git ?uw, “we will have supper, such as it is,” “The porter promised to get me something” she protested. “I have cornered the food supply of the tow: ’ he explained. “If my com- prosperity.

One threatens the prosperity by a radical change of eco- noimic ¢onditions, the upsetiing of the governfiient which is bringing good times, while the other strikes at the very foundation of the government,, threatening individual rights, the making of the judiclary a mockery with a dangerous cemtral power for regulating monopolies.

This reaching out after additfonal knowledge instead of being gsatigfled with a common school education is & healthy indica- tlon. The fact that the advantages of & high school education have been thrown open to the rich and poor alike, as in the case of the town bear- ing the expense of the Academy tui- tion in this town, has resulted in a great increase in high school attend- ance. Conditions have changed so that today one-fourth of the children who | enter the elememtary school pass into the high school.

The prospect doesn't diminigh his glee. The republican party made this gov- ernment a world power; and all the republicans fought beneath the stars and stripes and not against the flag! A strike caused by the refusal of two union miners to wear union but- tons lasted four weeks and caused a loss of $150,000 to the striking miners. The Richmond Times-Despatch thinks the Colonel may go into “vood- veel” after November 5. He wouldn't do much business on another southern trip. Though a Parisian has had his stomach replaced by that of a healthy ape, that does not signify that he will be partial to cocoanuts and cut up monkey-shines. ¢ The poliey of Louisiana is to keep the blacks so ignorant that they can- not qualify as electors.

Colonel Roosevelt says the Balti- more convention was no betier than the Chicago conventioni; and yet they were both as good ag the conventions which made him vice president and president. The Kansas City Journal says ihe political fight in the west is narrow- ing down to the confliet between the republicans and democrats, with Roosevelt and Debs on the side an disturbers.

No bet- ter movement can be started for the beautification of the city. President Taft 18 not so skilled as his predécessor in running a news bureau; and while Roosevelt furnishes more information to the press than any other ome man, he tries to break its influence by telling the people the papers do not tell the truth. Colonel Roosevelt wrote President Taft concerning the new treaty of reciprocity with Canada, that “it was admirable from every standpoint” and now he hopes to win the farmers’ vote by condemning Taft and the law.

[ They are intellectual snobs. They look upon a cultured person as a distinot order ‘of creation from the unlettered; just as in certain countries a duke is considered to be of wholly different clay from the day laborer. There are scientists with an unvefled contempt for any idea of af untrained mind, college men who scem to imag- ine that one who has not taken a de- gree in mathematics and Latin has no right to think at all, artists who sneer at common tastes, and Hterary gentle- folk who conceive the unlibraried mind fto ‘be wholly negligible. y Now, when a really great man comes along it is noticeable that he turns to the common pecple; he passes by the experts, and appeals to the vulgar crowd. Socrates /conversed with the harness maker and the courtépan as willingly 'as with the sophist. Jesus i ignored the scholars and directed his message to fishermen. Lincoln pre- ferred the judgment of the people to that of the statesmen. i For wisdom, in the end, is not test- ed by the arts of the learned, but -by ' the instincts of men. The farmer and the blacksmith are quite as apt to be sound and clear upon great issues {of life and destiny as the college pro- fessor. 3 The principle of democracy is as true in thought as in action. Could snobbery go farther than the remark in Stuart Mill's autobfography, ‘that “a person of high intellect should never go into unintellectual soclety un- less he can enter it as an apostle?” OTHER VIEW POINTS' .

The main point for the American people to grasp is that there has been an enormous amount of corporation fat-frying in the past, and that it must cease for the future.
