been proved unwise by the resistance of
a practically united North and has failed
i'll some Southern states to command the
approval of the people.
Now that there. is again TO be rcpulr
lican president it is a blessing to the
whole country that there is also to he a
congress ready and able to act in harmony
with his beliefs. The attitude of the two
parties on the question OF tariff was such
that Il great number of democrats must
regard their defeat with feeling Of re-
lief. Discussion had placed in strong
light the remarkable prosperity which
had been njoved under the existing pol
icy, and no thoughtful citizen could fail
to realize that the change proposed would
be 4 leap in the dark. N'it'l multitude
oi democrats in doubt whether the policy
OF 'i,"ir party was iudicious. Il verdict at
the polls in favor Of that party would not
nave faithfully represented the Judgment
OF the people on the tariff question: But
it would have encouraged leaders to press
forward i'll Il course whici. majority of
the peopl" was not. in fact. prepared to
sustain.
The LEADER is not OF those who believe
that upright citizens are to he found in
one party only. There are democrast---
and the number Of them has of late been
wonderfully increasing who feel that
the methods employed to secure demo
ocratic victory at the South, and in some
Northern cities, could not prevail again
without great peril to free government
1t Is not necessary to ccnsurc these men
because they We're not prepared to help
the defeat Of principles to which they
were sincerely attached. But they must
now regard with deep satisfaction the
fact that a Solid South has again been
proved the surcst road to democratic de-
feat and the extinction Of party as 1T
stands.

Burning solid Petroleum,

According 10 The Revue Scientihque,
DIR. Kaufman has succeeded in solidify-
ing petroleum by heating il for the space
of half an hour with from 1 10 . per
cent. Of common soap, until the latter
has quite dissolved in the petroleum,
forming with il a homogeneous mass If
the consistency of tallow. Cut up in
cubes, this compound can be used ms fuel
for heating purposes. Il does not ignite
easily, but when nce set on fire it burns
steadily, slowly and smokeless!y, leaving
a carbonaceous residue Of about 2 per
cent. of its weight. Solid petroleum
burns three times slower than coal, but
yields a greater heat than the latter

SUCKING or TIE BRONCO.
ons OF the R~ecreations Of the Cowboy.
Tanning "a Vicious Brute.

While the head men are gathered in a
kttle knot, planning out the work, the
ethers are dispersed over the plain in
every direction, racing, breaking rough
horses, or simply larking with one an
other. IL a man has an especially bad
horse, he usually takes such in opportu-
nifty, when he has plenty Of time, TO ride
him; and while saddling he is surrounded
by a crowd of most uusympathetic asso-
oiates, who greet with ~uproarious mirth
any miSadventure. A mar on a bucking
horse is always considered fair game,
every squeal and jump Of the brjnco
being hailed with cheers Of delighted
irony for the rider and shouts 10 'stay
with him.
The antics Of a vicious bronco show in
finite variety of detail, but all are mod
eled on N general plln. When the
rope settles round his neck the fight be-
gins, and it is only after much plunging
and snorting that "A twist is taken over his
nose, or else a hackamore-a species of
severe halter, usually made Of plated
hair, slipped on his head. While being
bridlel he strikes ~viciously with his fore
feet. and perhaps has to be blindfolded
or thrown down; and TO get the saddle
on him is quite as difficult. When sad
died, he may get rid of his eXuhcrant
spirits by bucking under the saddle, or
may reserve all his energies for theTider.
In the last case, the man, keeping tight
hold with his left hand on the check
strap, So as to prevent the horse from
getting his head down until he is fairly
seated. swings himself quickly into the
saddle, Up rises the bronco's back into
an arch; his head, the ears laid straight
back, goes down between his fore feet,
and. squealing savagely, he makes a sue
cession of rapid, stiff legged, jarrmg
bounds.
Sometimes he is ''Ilunging" bucker,
who rum forward all the time while
bucking; or he may buck steadily in one
place, or ''sunlish''- that is, bring first
shoulder down n most TO the ground
and then the othpr. or else he may
change ends while in the air. A first
class rider will sit throughout il all with
