How Fahrenheit Got His Zero.


Fahrenheit was mathematician
and knew that circle was devided in
to $50 degrees. He found that steam
and ice were the most natural fixed
points of temperature. at opposite
poles. He therefore naturally divid-
ed the distance on his glass tube be-
tween ice and steam into the number
of degrees in the dianater of circle.
which is $50, He wanted an instru-
ment which could be cheaply made
and which would measure above steam
and below ice, SO far as would be used
in everyday life. He found that artifi-
cial :. cold could be produced
which would cause the murcury TO fall
just 80 of the spaces he had marked off
on his glass between ice and steam, and
he there, sensibly or not, placed his
zero or point from which he could
count. Hence ice or freezing is 80 de.
grees above, and steam or boiling wa.
ter Is the diamater of his circle or 1s0
degrees above ice. or 212 degrees above
zero. Onto State Journal.

The refusal of the grand jury at
Green River, Wyoming, to indict the
ringleaders OF the Rock Springs mas
sacre is travesty on justice, and pop
ular government. 1t is q i .cision
which will b;ar fruit, and probably
lead to furthur outrages of the same
unhappy description. 1t is practically
II judicial notice that crimes may be-
perpetrated with impunity against the
Chinese. The grand jury says:
1--WE have diligently inquired into
the occurance at Rock Springs on the
second day of September lat, and
though we have examined large mum
bers of witnesses, no one has been
able to testify to a single criminal act
committed by II white person on that
day. Whatever crimes may have been
committed, the perpetrators thereof
have not been disclosed by the evi
>dence before US; and therefore, while
we deeply regret the circumstances,
we are wholly unable, acting uDder the
obligations of our oaths to return in
dictments. We also have inquired in
to the causes that led to the outbreak
at Rock Springs While we find no
excuse for the crimes committed, there
seems to be no doubt that abuses were
existing that should have been prou,pt-
ly adjusted by the railroad company
and its officials. If this had been
done the fair name of our territory
would not haze been stained by the
terrible events of Sept. 9.
Thus it appears the grand jurors car
readily find the cause of the massacre
and what would have prevented it, but
the indetity of the perpetrators of the
crime is to them past finding out

Jim Fisk got H. N. Smith. who late
Iy failed into trouble one day. The
two men were walking up Broadway In
company. talking on financial matters.
when suddenly Fisk switched of the
conversation to a discussion of uni
que charm that was decorating his
gold watch chain. Jus: as they were
in front of n policeman, Mr.. Smith
half beat over with the charm In his
hand, Fisk drew back quickly; out
flew his watch and with indignation he
called upon the policeman to do his
duty. It was a sad state of things II
citizens we're to be robbed in broad
daylight. Mr. Smith was dazed. He
tried TO explain. Fisk only grew more
frigid. Mr.. Henry N. Smith went
along with til, policeman; there was no
appeal. Broadway was crowded.
Wall-st. had just let itself loose after
an afternoons work. A hundred brok-
ers recognized tie prisoner, but when
they sought TO accost him the stalwart
officer deigned only to wave them
away. The police station was three or
four blocks away. A crowd of brok-
ers marched down to discover the
cause and TO see the end of such a
strange spectacle. The policeman did
not know Smith; he did know Fisk, as
every body else did the city over at
that time. Just at the door of the pc.
lice sta'ion a carriage was standing.
Inside was Fisk in n policeman's hat
and coat. On the pavement was the
police captain, all shaking with glee
'Get into the carriage, sir" he com
manded, with what dignity and severi.
| ty he could muster. Poor Smith
What could he do but obey? Away
went the team over the cobblestone
streets. Not word said the man in
policeman's garb; only once in IL while
he handled his club with a suggestive
ness that was not cheering. Miles and
miles that vehicle seemed to roll, till
finally, darkness having fallen, it drew
up with n dash in front of building

Last week the supreme court of
Michigan made decision of consider.
able Importance to the cause of good
government in this state. 1t decided
that local option in the liquor traffic is
constitutional in all cities and villages
of Michigan organized under the gen
eral incorporation law. The question
has been raised in several villages and
there has been a conflict of opinion.
by the decision of the supreme court
every village organized under the gen
eral act has the power to say for itself
whether liquor shall be sold within its
limits or not. The way is now clear
for the question of prohibition to be
settled outside political lines where all
the forces for temperance may unite =

A well known trade journal remarks
that no town can be permanently pros
porous in which the citizens and trades
men dependent upon each other do not
patronize each other. The merchant
wants harness, for instance. Although
his neiglbor is a good harness maker,
and trad;s with him he iinagines he can
save fif cents 10y sending to another
town or state for his harness. The
harness maker in turn, sends away for
his groceries, boots, shoes, and cloth
ing. The shoemaker sends away for
his coat, and the tailor for his boots,
and so il goes. AS u result. the farm
ers, coming in town to trade, see all
the tradrsnen sending TO other towns
for goods because they say they can
save money by SO doing, comes to the
conclusion that they can do better
elsewhere, and then everybody growls
about bad times and no business. No
wonder These business men them
selves turn the tide of trade elsewhere,
for il they can supply themselves to
better advantage by depriving their
neighbors of their trade, others learn
to try the same experiment. 1t il
u dangerous one to inaugurate, foI
even il tribe can be saved i'm the pur
chase of n harness, a pair of boots, a
suit of clothes, a hat, "a barrel of flour
or yard of calico, ten dollars is lost

is they gain nothing but loss in send
away their trade from themselves
Show us town in which The people
make it a rule not to send away FOL
anything they can get at home, and
we will show you a town in which
business is lively and everybody busy
and trade entering from abroad. Pri
ces are low and :radesmen patroniz,
each other having no suspicion tina
confidence will be abused. Let it ono,
be understood that tile business mel

ing abroad for purchases, and the bust
ness men of any town will languish

confidence in theml That's not tn

Ohio Election.
Great Republican Success
Foraker elected by 5000 Plur'
atty.

The Ohio election on Tuesday was
warmly contested and resulted in an
overwhelming republican victory, the
entire state ticket being elected by
from $1,000 to 20, 200 plurality. Both
branches of the Legislature will be
rep ublican, insuring the return OF Sen
ut or Sherman. When it is relnem-
bered that the democrats elected their
governor two years ago by about 49,
600 majority, and have brought every
possible effort to bear on the result
this year, the victory seems more com
plete. The third party is probably
effectually buried, and the republicans
will enact some law to regulate the
liquor traffic in conformity with the
wishes of the better element of the
state.

When Attorney General Garland
was rendered and accepted present
of a million and half in telephone
stock, which the giver says was given
to secure his influence and assistance,
Mr.. Garland was United States Sen
ator. Now what influence was it that
Mr Rogers brought, or expected TO
buy, with this giftl 1t was evidently
Mr.. Garland's influence as United
States senator. Mr.. Rogers could
have hired the services Of a better law

cured the interest of many of the
most noted business men in the coun-
try much cheaper. Clearly it was not
business influence, nor social influence,
nor legal influence, that Mr.. Rogers
was after with that large gift, but po-
litical influence. If Mr. Garland had
not been United States senator lie
never would have been offered that
stock as "a donation" When Mr..
