Train Wrecking. On the charge of causing a fatal train wreck at Fontanel, Ind., in July, four strikers were jailed at Terre Haute. To hang such criminals up on the presumption that they contem plated and premeditated murder would in ov- opinion be right in equity if not in law. And until something more than the kind treatment, the free luch and the soft beds of our prises are meted out to such crimi nals train-wrecking, &c, is apt to grow more frequent as the chilling blasts of winter settle down upon us.

The purpose of the University Ex tension movement is to provide the means of higher education for nersons of all classes and of both sexes en. gaged in the regular occupations of life. It is. in fact, an attemnt to solve the problem of how much of what the universities do for their own students can be done for persons unable to go to a University. ine movement was started in England, in 187a. hv the llni versitv of Cambridge, and has he.n rarrieH on by the Universities of Oxford and t-amuridge with increasing success. Last year nearly 60.000 students at. tended courses of lectures at about four hundred centres in England and vvaies. THE OlIJECTS OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY ARE : 1st.

To carry on a practical experi ment in University Extension in struction, aiming especially at a solu tion of the difficult problems involved in the work, confident that such a solution will be a permanent service to American education and render the further introduction of the Kvstem throughout the United States a matter of comparative ease. 3.- To co-operate as far as possi ble with all institutions and organiza tions in their efforts toward the Kvten sion of University Teaching, and to secure in every way possible for the people and for the universities the benefits offered by this movement.

Wm..M. Singerly, of Philadelphia. in a pointed little sneech before thousands of people, formally accept ed tne democratic nomination for governor on the aoth ult. It is said that at least 5,000 eager listeners packed the Academy. The Demo cratic organizations of the city turned out in full force, while a few dis affected, always to be found dis gruntled until pacified with promised "pap, were conspicuous for their absence. Mr. Singerly's acceptance of the nomination was couched in the fol lowing remarks from him : On behalf of my colleagues and for myself, the honor done us by the De mocracy of Pennsylvania in naming us as meir candidates tor the state ticket and the kind terms in which you have given us formal notice of their action, are duly appreciated We accept the nominations and indorse the platform approved by the convention. Tariff reform, honest money, frugal federal, state and mu nicipal government are aims worth fighting for. When, we shall be able to divorce politics from business so as to let the people do their own bank ing, trading, carrying and manufact uring, precisely as we allow them to do their own farming, without meddle some discrimination for or aeainst any special interest, and only res tricted by such few general laws as are necessary for the public safety and welfare there will be a return of settled prosperity. The people can take care of them selves. Legislation which promotes capitalistic aggregations, syndicates, trust and political combinations for the purpose of plunder, promotes counter organizations of the plund ered, and disorganizes society. A resumption of simpler Jeffersonian methods, in which nothing shall be undertaken hv the government whirh may be accomplished by individual exertion, should be the basis of De mocratic effort. To this end let us vidual districts. It is upon this earnest and efficient organization . that the result depends. The Democrarv deserves success for their efforts, and you, gentlemen, can make it so. I thank you for myselt and on behalf of my colleagues on the ticket for this great demonstration here to-night. If the kindne.", the ha.jiony, the aggression manifested by tlv.s meeting represent the tone of the Democracy o: Philadelphia it means success in November.
