Stand­ ing at -the depot crossing Tues­ day evening, at a time when the Portland train was due, tw o au- tomobobiles crossed over the tracks at a good gait without either ot the drivers casting so much as a mete glance to see if the train was approaching. On the following morning a team crossed the track on West First street just in front pf the swift- running train, apparently escap­ ing by a scratch. Unless a halt is called on the reckless daring of this kind, the Graphic will not have to wait long for the publi­ cation of the obituary. The electric trains don’t make half the noise made by steam trains, and often when the breeze is blowing in the opposite direction the approach of the train at a crossing can scarcely be heard at all. Hence the necessity for cau­ tion on the part of those who are crossing the railroad tracks. It is better to be sure that the Coast is dear, rather than to take any chances. A distressing casualty would no doubt have a deterrent eflect on careless driv­ ers, for a time at least, but we hope to be spared the necessity o f writing one up. ■ - " , V per publisher, Mr. Stewart is a The Graphic, on interrogating b ig ranchman. male voters regarding the man to select for governor, finds that Hon.
