Artificial Rain.

The question of producing rain By
artificial means has brought out the
views of Mr.. Thomas Silver, well.
known scientist, who believes the ques-
ton to be one of little time only before
it is practically illustrated. Long expe.
rience and much observation have i'm
pressed him with the belief that the laws
of nature rarely impose any difficulty OF
want without the association of means
for correction or relief. In his opinion
there is more water generally above the
habitable surface of the earth than below
it, and it simply requires adequate means
to secure it.
"The supply of water through the
workings of common natural law-that
of evaporation and condensation, said
Mr.. Silver, sis generally understood,
and fall of rain is anticipated by a re-
duced pressure of the atmosphere.
Water absorbs preponderance of cleo
tricity and the clouds are charged with
it in proportion to their density of moist
ure, disturbance follows the want of
magnetic equilibrium and the vibrations
caused thereby aid in condensation.
Hence the sometimes excessive falls of
rain common to periods of most thunder
and lightning. But though such pour
ings of rain are also preceded by fall
in the barometer it nevertheless shows
that disturbances in the atmosphere in
crease the quantity of water fallen and
serve greatly to confirm the practical
availability in the use of artificial means
for producing rain. The copious falls
battles should also satisfy US and serve
70 choy hot outfit
may be reduced to useful practice if
sufficient economy should prove within
reach"
"What means would you propose to
empty to secure this result?" asked the
reporter:
"Well, explosions or conclusions are
perhaps the true if not the only effective
means for producing the desired result.
1t certainly would not pay to burn down
our towns or deplete our forests for this
purpose, even if fires would produce the
rain, which would be very uncertain.
1t seems to me, then, that a resort to an
equivalent afforded by electricity, and
that although more economical means
than the use of well-known explosives
may be desired, they may still, if judi
ciously employed, be found available
for an experiment. Inc various degrees
of moisture suspended in the atmosphere
can always be detected by the hydrom-
eter, and the best period for operation
can be taken advantage of. The sum-
mer climate of California invites such
an experiment, and the State can afford
to try it. Then let it be undertaken. If
successful, depend uponit there is latent
genius and material to warrant the prac-
tical economy of it in due time. Passing
all chemical discoveries that may be
awaiting us, it is not certain that COM
mon air compressed to an explosive de-
gree would not serve as a substitute for
common explosives, and there are many
engineers quite competent to design and
execute mechanical devices that will
work at a mere nominal cost. IN. 2.

Lies and BuncOmbe.
The New York San saws:

The New York San says: II
"This is Republican Congress. There is a
clear Republican majority in the House of
Representatives, yet the House refuses by a
CiviIservice Reform. What then? Was the
reform resolution in the platform of the last
National Conventional nothing but lies and
buncombe?' 55't
Precisely sslies and buncombe -
nothing more and nothing less. Why,
the reform resolution was whistled down
the wind before It's ink was dry. What
did Garfield say about it in his letter of
acceptance, or Arthur in his? To what
extent was it brought forward in the
campaign? What prominent Repu bic
an speaker urged it in his speeches?-
what prominent Republican organ In its
editorials? What intelligent Republic
an attached the slightest Importance to
it before the election or afterward?
What intelligent Republican did not.
and does not, know that the reform
plank in the platform was too rotten to
bear its own weight And has not the
result so proved it? What did Garfield
do when he was in the Executive chair?
What has Arthur done since he slipped
into Garfield seat? A Republican Con-
gress cannot be expected to be more
consistent in this matter than these two
Republican Presidents; and for Re-
publican House, led by Robson. to vote
money for Civil Service Reform purposes
would be the very sublimity of the RI
diculous. If the ex-Secretary's cheek
were capable of such q cutaneous con-
vulsion, he could not afterward look at
himself in the mirror without blush.
The Republican Civil-Service Reform
dodge is now taking its usual rest, and
must not be disturbed. 1t will wake up
for business about two years hence, and
then the farce played at Chicago will be
repeated somewhere else. The Repub-
lican party has never at any time been
in favor of reform. There are some
honest reformers in its ranks, but not
enough to amount to anything. and
whenever they raise their heads too
high they are promptly sat down upon
by the anti-reform Majority. What else
could be expected in a party of which
Conkling, Cameron, Logan and Robe
son are recognized leaders, These men
who make no secret of their hostility
can hardly be persuaded to let the re-
form-plank get into the platforms; and
their consent can only be obtained by
giving them permission to treat it as
Lies and buncombe'' as soon as the
Convention adjourns. How thoroughly
they avail themselves of this permission
may be seen by an examination of their
campaign speeches. Those who re-
member how vigorously Conkling dashed
Garfield for his alleged reform proclivi-
ties, and how meckly the Republican
nominee bore the castigation, require
no further evidence of the true inward
ness of Republican reform. 1t is simply
a trap to catch votes. and the trap is
never set until the votes are needed:
then lail aside until the next time. And.
we may remark, any voter who can be
deceived by this old and clumsy trick
would take stock in lunar cheese fac

1t is only few years since freight
cars were allowed to be loaded with
more than ten tons. Now but few
eight-wheel cars are built with carry
ing capacity of less than twenty tons:
The advantages and economies secured
by increased capacity are such that
committee of the Master Car Builders
Association have recommended the
building of twenty-five or thirty-ton
test cars, believing that freight can be
carried in thirty-ton cars with as much
safety and with greater economy thar
in cars OF less capacity. -Chtcago Times

Inc utter Collapse OF the Story is not
at all surprising. 1t was precisely what
was to be expected in the light of ex-
perience. And it is to be expected
also in the light of experience-that the
New York Tribune will be quite ready,
tomorrow, or next day, or next week,
or at any time. to accept any other
story of the same caliber and spread it
before its readers, without caring
whether it is true or false, so that it has
the ring of Republican partisanship and
seems to bolster the Republican cause.
