TIIK CAU8IC OF TIIK WItKCKHI The number of trains wrecked on railways in all parts of the Union and the consequent loss of life aud destruction is appalling. These fatalities are nt only of daily occur rence, but often several tako place in a day, and theie is good reason to believe that they are more numer ous! since the great strike on the New York Central than before. What Is the cause of this? It cannot bo argui-d that railway em ployes are wrecklug train, because the wrecks are not coulliied to the roads afflicted by the strike, but the worst have taken place on roads not directly affected by that labor dis order. Again, the deaths caused by these wrecks have included more often the crew of tlio engines and other employes of trains rather than passengers. It is contrary to rea- sou to charge the wrecks to railroad neb still employed, tho' discharged men might be insane enough to at tempt such wholasale crimes. This latter theory is apparently without grounds as the discharged strikers offer $1000 for tho discovery of any one guilty of such an act. There is an element however ,vho might havo interest in train wrecking under present circum stances, the Plukeiton sluggers, plcked-up roughs, tramps aud roust abouts who are not legulur detect ives, but who are temporarily en gaged to overawe the strikers. This element has a motive for ac complishing defeat of settlement aud cahting the odium of ci line upon the discharged workiiigmen. This arouses hostilities between the labor unions and employing corporation)' and makes necessary the employ ment of more or thedastardiy reptiles who, without, the brains to be em ployed as detectives and too low a.d lazy to be found in tho ranks of honest workers, are willing to berve as mercenaries of the corporations and help kill their betters engaged in a peaceful effort to secure tbelr rights. It is safe to say that if the number of wrecks has increased in this emergency, the cause may be found in the army of mobilized tramps paid by private capital. is tiik a ova jici: or SILVER MERE RESULT or SPECULATION'.' The Oregonian cannot deny that silver has gone up since the passage of the silver bill and that farm pro- duco has goue up simultaneous with its passage. Butitsas; "1 here is a cackle of exultation nmong those who advocated fice coinage of silvei on the rise in silver sluco the pas sage of tho receut silver act which, however, doesn't provide for free coluage. Tho inspiration of this cacklo Is short-sighted, aud the cackle itself is premature. For it Is evident that tho recent silver act has produced a speculative move ment in silver, uu effort to corner the silver market so as to make the government, which must be a buyer, pay more for silver than it is actual ly worth. This Is tho explanation of the .state of tho silver maiket. These bulls are likely to turn bears as soon as they unload. Enormous speculations iu silver were forebcen as a consequence of the passage ol the silver act. But it may be as well to take thought that though sliver has been forced up rapidly by speculators, au act of our congress has not yet made a permanent valuo for silver for the whole world." Theie is no evidence that silver has gone up in ptico above its actual value. It must reach H.-U per ounce troy weight before it is par with gold, and the monopoly en- Joyed by gold ns the single staudaid undoubtedly had for years prior to this law depressed value ot sil ver. 'I lie fact that the bullion value of gold is about equal to its coiued value, is tho effect of legisla tion by which the various mints me by law dliected to coin all gold that Is presented, for the benefit of the owner. The bullion value of silver would immediately rise from its preseut price to lis coined valuo, ilets the mintage fee) upon the passage of a law by congie.-s providing for Its fiee coinage, while theactuul value of either metal could bo ascertained only by withdrawing from It the in lluence of legislation which makes government u foiced purchaser of it at coin rates. England before the new silver uill passed coined 4!) pence of American sliver bulllou into 0'J pence of Eng lish silver money, aud made ft obli gatory upon laborers on publio works to take t nt its coiued value, and as u legal tender. If all countries would adopt paper money and demoneti.o gold, undoubtedly the bullion value of gold would fall, If the United States alone would demnnelie gold It would probably not affect its bul lion value, uenuiM the recognition aud agreement of the other nations as to its coin value, would keep up Its bullion value tn their rate of coinage So, If all European coun-' tries would remonetlze silver, In strad of employing the single gold standard and using silver only for subsidiary or chango coinage, no doubt sliver would rise above what Is now called par with gold, or 10 to 1. Wo have gono into this so plainly for the ptirposo of eliminating the fiction of theso-calledgold-stnndiiid, or gold-unit of monetary value. The plain, horse-senso fact of history aud experience renmius that gold has not had a fixed value and that Its value may bo a.'Ieclcd by hostile or monopolistic legislation. All that the Oregonian says about spec ulations in silver only proves the possibility of such a thing in the case of cither metal as a result of hostile or friendly legislation. Is there any evidence that, so long ns this government failed to provide for coinage of the silver product of its own mines, it did not forco the price of sliver below its actual value? Failure to legard stiver as a metal worthy of coinage was certainly a depreciation of silver and at. enhancement of tho purchas lug power of gold. Who can tell what will be the permanent value of sliver If other nations follow in the footsteps of the United States towards fully aud fairly remnuetlz ing it? Dili not our government by refusing to coin all silver produced hero furee the surplus into depre ciated markets, thereby depreciating I he value of the whole output at home? We cannot conclude that the advance of silver under tho new silver law is the rtsult of specula tion, but rather regard it as the re sult of a policy of justice towtird silver itself. Tin: si i;i:ut m'kinkling. Theie is a positive demand for moic aud better stieet sprinkling at Salem. Thegiowth of the city de mands this. Tlie citizens who are not yet accustomed to dust aud whose houses, gardens and stocks of goods are all more or less injured by the dust are demanding It. At present there is ouo sprinkler in operation, ami of course the ser vice rendered cannot cover the whole city nor satisfy everyone. There are at n low estimate, one hundred uersous who would pay for sprink ling before their houses if they hud u chance. It Is a crying abuse that we have not better street sprinkling facilities, and yet no one is particu lar is to blame. As the Journal has before intimated, tho city should not bo called upon iu the preseut state of the treasury to foot nuy bills for street sprinkling. But private enterprise will accomplish a great deal under intelligent public direction. The city should take con trol of the matter, fix tho rates to be charged and enter Into a contract with a firm, competent to do nil the street sprinkling that is required, aud give bond for good performance. The health, comfort and busiuess in terests of our city require this. Wo do not know whoso duty it is to pre seut this matter, but it needajitten tlon. It is not certain but chat under a properly constructed ordinance an enterprising, pushing contractor would pay tho city something for a mouopoly of tho business. The rates to bo charged owners of pi I vale grounds and business houses for spt inkling the ubutttug streets cm be agiecd upou. Or the con tractor micht agree that for the light to collect these rates he would sprinkle certain public places as n compensation. This latter method is tho tendency of tho bestlmunlcl pal legislation. It is certainly a farce to expect one water-cart to settle the dust on miles and miles of streets iu u dry climate. The wet season is almost here, although there are weeks and weeks in whiter when streets need artificial sprinkling. There is am ple I lino for a full consideration of this subject from tho standpoint of the true interests of our city aud all the people. AHIUDSKYK VIKW OI'BALEU, A large colored lithographic view of Salem would bo a splendid ad veillsement of Salem.

It could be made tn show thesuuuibau wealth or the city, with its rich fruit-growing tracts all around, the Uhematva Indian training school on the north nud the new state re form school on the south. Portland agents are hero to press upou the city u plan tn secure a birdseye view. The advertising coinmlUteo have tho matter under consideration. A meeting of the hoard of trade at an early day will pass on the matter.

This is the third of the series of papers on "Exercise for Women" now being published In the Bazar. The retail book business in Nan tucket is largely controlled by women. Among the dealers are Ellen H. Coffin, Hnrriet H. Macy, Mary F. Coleman, Mary A. Jones aud Phoebe W. Clisby. Inasmuch us women write the books, buy the books and read the books, It is only fair that they should sell them. Mrs. Esther Morris was elected a delegate to the republican county convention in Cheyenne, Wyoming. She uomiuated Miss Estelle Reel, sister of a former mayor of Chey- euue, for comity superintendent of schools. Miss Reel, who is described as a bright and capable young woman, received the highest num ber of votes, aud is the regular nomiuee. Miss Birdie Vosburg, of Clinton, la., lias just received the Helbig premium for talent and industry. A gentleman named Helbig left, in 1804, u legacy to the Leipzig com servatorium for premiums to pupils w ho might distinguish themselves. To attain this premium, a pupil must have been over two years iu the conservatory. Women have seldom received it, but this year three American ladies have done so. Ah there are uearly three huudred ladies in tho conservatory, this is a decided distinction for the three foreigners. Tolstoi's falso views of women are shown up by Col. H. G. Iugersoll iu North American Review for Sep tember as follews: Tho story of "The Kreutzer Sonata" seems to have been wrltteu for the purpose of showlug that womau is at fault; that she has no right tn be attract ive, uo right to be beautiful; aud that she Is morally responsible for tho contour of her throat, for the poso of her body, for the symmetry of her limbs, for the ted of her lips, and for the dimples lu her cheeks. The opposite of this doctrluo is nearer tine. It would be fur better to hold people responsible for their ugliness than for their beauty. It may be true that the soul, thomlndi in some wondrous way fashlous the body, aud that to that extent eveiy individual is responsible for his looks. It may bo that the man or woman thinking high thoughts will give, necessarily, a nobility to ex pression aud a beau I y to outline. It is not true that the sins of man can be laid justly at tho feet of woman. Women aru better than men; they have grealei respousibll (ties; they bear the burdens of joy. This is the real reason why their faults uro considered greater. Men and women de.-lie each other, and this deslio Is a condition of civiliza tion, progress, and huppiue-s, aud of everything of real value. But there is this profound dtlleieuee lu the sexes; in man this deshe is the foundation of love, while lu woman love Is the foundation of this desire.
