"How Times Have Changed" is the title of a handsome flyer Rotten out by the Southern Railway in 1854 in com-: parison with a view of this same line,1 now part of the Southern's Washing-, ton division, showing one of the' Southern's limited passenger trains on modern double track protected by the electric automatic block signal i system. I The old advertisement shows a picture of the antiquated woodburn-! ingr engine, baggage car and one' coach, making up a passenger train in 1854. Passengers are advised that omnibuses leaving Washington! at 6 a m. "on arrival of cars from I Baltimore" will put them in Alexan-j dria in time to "breakfast and take I the cars" and that by transferring at Gordonsville they can reach Rich mond at 2:30 p. m. in time "to con nect with all lines going south and west." ILarg? black letters display the slo gan, "Only Safe and Certain Line," and "No Detention from Ice," hav ing reference to the fact that to take the trains of the rival line it was ne cessary to travel by boat from Wash ington to Ackuia Creek, Va., and thenc to Richmond, then the gateway for all travel between Washington and the south. PASSENGER El WRECK Mr. and Mrs W,illiam Fogle, Mrs. Wi. S. Stroup and Mrs. Lallie Peacock are leaving this afternoon for Wash ington to attend the inauguration While away they will vis't other northern cities. ( By Associated Press.) Laurel, Miss., March 1. South bound passenger train No. 1 on the New Orleans northeasterward from Cincinnati left the rails here early today, baggage and mail cars being thrown down an embankment.

A CLEAR EXPOSITION OF TW'O BLOCKADES One of the Record's, subscribers has handed the paner an article from the Owensboro. Ky., Daily Messen ger on "The Two Blockades." It is an able discussion of the question and . if read closely by persons desirous of informing themselves, will prove; helpful. The editorial follows: j There are still people who write j to the newspapers inquiring what the difference is between the Ger man blockade and the British block ade, and why our government does not oppose the latter as vigorously as it opposes the former. lit shouldn't be necessary at this late day, after the matter has been d scussed publicly in all its bearings over and over again for nearly two years, to point out the dissimilarity of the two blockades and the ab surdity of regarding them in the same light. iAnd yet the case seems to need stating once more. To begin with, international law does not forbid one belligererj; to blockade another w'th a view of starving out the enemy. The United States itself established the classic precedent for such . action by its blockade of the Confederacy in our civil war. iThe allies' blockade of Germany and Austria is modeled af ter our example. We have denied the legality of the present British blockade on techn'cal grounds, simply because it is not complete, because it fails to seal up all the German ports. If the block ade could be made 100 per cent ef fective, we could not complain so ltong as Grea 'itlain obeyed ihe law of "search and seizure." Th's latter obligation is more im portant by far than the question of complete effectiveness. The British and French navies have in general treated neutral shipping with punctilious correctness. They have stopped, delayed and diverted American ships and cargoes; but they have not sunk a s'ngle American ship, or destroyed a single American cargo or taken a single American life. When Lhey have seized a cargo they have paid for it. Every ship and cargo seized has been taken into a "prize court" and been dealt with according to the established forms of internat ional law. Germany has not even declared a blockade. She could not do so le gally without destroying the allied tteet and taking visible possession of the sea. The German government nas carefully refrained from calling its present action a blockade. It has merely warned all neutrals to keep out of an arbitrary "prohib ted zone" which has no standing in interna tional law on pain of being sunk without warning if they disregard the notice. And Germany has ear ned out her threat, pursu ng a course which in the law of nations is regard ed as unprecedented, unjustified and criminal. The so-called German blockade, I then is far less lawful than th iiritisn in its fundamental conception it is wholly lawless in its enforce ment. Even .f it were granted tnac Germany has as good right as Great ESritain to outline a prescribed zone and seize neutral ships and cargoes ' m that zone, ft is intolerable and repugnant to all law and all nations ox lumanity that Germany attacK sucn snips without warning destroying Hqttoms, "cargoes, crews and passengers. iSuch conduct is not warfare, as civilized nations have practiced warfare. ,lt is piracy ana murder. It is no crime to try to run a blockade. ,W"e have a perfect right to carry contraband to either Ger many or England, if we can. The risk .s ours that's all. And the risk we assume in doing so is a risk merely of property, not of life. Ger many is bound by law, and by old treaties with us, not to desL'roy our ships if she catches them carrying con traband to her enemy. She may not even lawfully confiscate the contra band, because her blockade is unlaw ful. The most she may do is what England has done occasionally take our cargoes and pay for them. As between the British and Ger man procedure, a distinguished American authority says: "it is laa difference between ai'resting an al leged offender and taking him into court, and shooting him dead on the jspot." The British navy corresponds roughly to a police force of whose constitutional authority there is some question, though it RECORD WANTS 8 ROOM COTTAGE Close in.
