The French republic was born in
the throes of the agony of French de
feat and humiliation of the Franeo
Prussian war. But France today is a
fine example to those croakers who
delight to say that republics are all
right in time of peace, hut cannot
meet the stress of a great war. Look
at her record since the great war be
gun. Without disparaging any other
nation, is it not fair to .say that she
has met the brunt of this war with as
much courage and ability as any oth
er power, and with as fine a spirit as
any other?
Who knows but there may be horn
republics in Europe when the last
thunders of the war shall grow still?

CLEVELAND, .March 30.—The ter
rible wreck wlhidb occurred yesterday
near Amherst, on .the New York Cen
tral line, in iwihidb thirty people were
killed and forty wounded, has cre
ated a demand from all over the
country for an investigation into the
causes which lead to the catastrophe,
and as a result .the matter will be
taken up by the interstate Commerce
Commission., whidh .will make a thor
ough examination .into the causes of
the wreck.
The accident is one of the worst in
the history of the road, and is be
lieved to have been .due to failure of
the engineer of the second section of
the east lion nil passenger train to ob
serve the block signals, or to the fact
that they might not have been work
ing. The latter however, is believed
to have been improbable.
