in Mr. Depew Above Ibe Law?
We had supposed that Chauncey M.
Depew was a bright man, but he seems
to have become suddenly sillv. Hear
him, the topic being hit arrest as a direc
tor of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railway under charge of man
slaughter :
"There is no shadow of law under
which the directors of a railroad can be
held for the consequences ol accidents.
I am a director in a railroad running to
Dulnth. Now it may be barely possible
that there is a bridge somewhere up in
the northwest which has a flaw in one
of the girders. Underthecoroner's jury's
ruling it is my dutv to go up to Dulutli
and walk over and climb under that
bridge which, bv the way.would proba
blv make business for a coroner's jury at
Duloth and have that girder repaired."
Mr. Depew evades the point and talks
at random. New York state passed u
law that the deadlv car stove should not
be used on cars run in New York state.
The New York, New Haven and Hartford
railway did not obey the law ; hence the
sacrifice of several lives and hence Mr.
Depew's responsibility as a director, for
he could have had the law obeyed and he
did not, If Minnisota should pass a sim
ilar law it would not be Mr. Depew's
duty to examine girders in Duluth, but
as a director in the Minnesota road, to
see that it obeyed the law. Mr. Depew
says, further :
"There is an estimable gentlemen in
this country named Roberts, who has
the misfortune to be a director in lit"
railroads. If the coroner's jury law is
good 1 should think he'd go crazy. Only
fancy his kaving, at his time of life, to
assume the personal responsibility for
everv misplaced switch or inoperative
signal on all those 137 roads!"
There is no law compelling Mr. Rob
erts, of the Pennsylvania railway, to
"assume personal responsibility" as a
director. He can resign at any time, but
if he does not and fails to obey a plain
law he must take the consequences.
A Republican t"onfeloii.
There may exist in North Carolina re
publicans who do not believe that the
las: congress, with a majority and Reed
against the detnocrats.was extravagant.
If so let them compass the full meaning
of this from the New York Tribune:
"The next congress will lie closely
watched to see whether it is more eco
nomical. If it cuts down expenditures
for the needful work of the government
it will be justly censured. If it cuts otl
pensions for Union veterans it will lie
condemned. But if it appropriates us
large an amount as the recent congress
it will be compelled to increase texutiot
in order to prevent national bankruptcy
The recent congress began its work with
a lurge surplus to be distributed, un i
tht exists no longer. There is not of
fered to the democrats next winter as
pleasant an alternative as some of them
now imagine."
In other words, the republican party
having got the country "in a hole"
financially the democratic party must
pull it out. The Tribune savs that if the
next congress is as extravagant as the
recent one, "it will be compelled to in
crease taxation to prevent national bank
ruptcy." There's the confession in plain
black and white. The last republican
congress brought the finances of the
most prosperous country in the world to
the very verge of bankruptcy, and main
ly, as it now appears, for the sake of
turning over the government to the
democrats in pretty nearly the worst
possible condition, financially.
There will be need in the next congress
of all the brains the democratic party
has about it. An economical adminis
tration of public affairs must be the
watchword.
Have Had Tbelr Innings.
The Statesville Landmark says that
"a fact which needs to be emphasized in
speaking of this legislature and its work
in this: that whereas it was elected to
reform things we find upon its adjourn
ment that it has left things very much as
it found them." That is true, but the
farmers have been there as they wanted
to and now probably feel better. They
were going to do a great deal, but
found, as all men do when placed in like
positions, that time has set up scores of
precedents as strong as laws and not to
be broken down even by men burning to
distinguish themselves. It was 4juite
right and proper, however, that the men
whom the fanner wished to represent
them should have an innings; they all
know more than they did and happily
the state is little or none the worse for it
perhaps the better.
The Reidsville Review speaks of the
Statesville Landmark, as "edited by that
distinguished disciple ol newspaper med
iocrity and obtuseness, Joseph Caldwell,
Esq." The editor of the Review must
have been beside himself when he wrote
that. If the Landmark is a product of
mediocrity s jug of it should be sent to
every editor in North Carolina at once.
Ths Citizen speaks early for a hogs
head of the same inspiring brain food as
offends the Review.

THE CAR STOVE.
The time is coming when railroad
companies will not only pay the price of
every man they slaughter by means of
old-fashioned link and pin couplers, hand
brakes and car stoves, but when the res
ponsible officials shall be called upon to
answes the charge of manslaughter.
Des Moines Register.
Chauncev M. Depew has undertaken
to champion the cause of the railroad car
stove. It is a pity so eloquent an advo
cate should waste his powers defending
such a reprobate. The car stove ought
to go. Steam heat is the only safe thing
for passenger trains. Cleveland Leader.
The car stove is a nuisance. The rail
roads should check it check it to that
