us Va MISREpRESENTED2

VAS He MSREPRESENTED?
IF Mr.. John X. Dixon of Rawlins, late
delegate to the st. Louis convention is
correctly re 9orted in an interview pub
lished in Yesterday issue IF the Sun, he
owes the Democratic party Of Wyoming
a full and immediate explanation. Ii he
is incorrectly reported then nothing short
of an unqualified denial over his own sig
nature can place him right with his politi-
cal associates.
If the information given is correct then
it fails to tally with hat found in the
leading newspapers of the country, with
private correspondence coming from sec
tons which are alleged to be close, and
with the leading Democrats of the nation
who have given expression to their pri-
vate views in conversation with their
friends. 1t will be pretty generally con.
coded that Gen. Joseph h. Johnston
is a leading Democrat who Is
admitted to the inuermost councils
of his party. Gen. Johnston spent Mon
day evening in town. In conversation
with Secretary Shannon, whom he has
known for twenty-five years, he said that
the leading men of the party feel and ex-
press the most absolute assurance Of sue
cess in November. Even Republicans do
not claim that Indiana is at all safe for
Harrison. The preponderance of opinion
is decidedly the other way. Harrison is
not personally popular at home, his local
opponents are among the best equipped
politicians in the country, and the manu-
featuring districts, which were supposed
to be all torn up over the tariff issue, are
already enthusiastically in line with the
Democratic party. -Four years ago CleYe-
land carried everyone of the so-called
doubtful states; Connecticut by l ,2S4 plu.
ralitY, Indiana by 6,5l2, New jersey by
4,4I2, and New York by l,O47. 1t will
be remembered that he did this as a man
with scarcely more than a state reputation
and opposed by the most popular living
Republican, who was backed by an army
of oficeholderA Cleveland has grown
in strength in four years. He now
has the Democrats in a solid
mass at his back, which he didn't have
four years ago or even two years ago. AS
to his Mugwump followers he has as
many of them now as he had four years
ago, for the few insignificant ones who
deserted his banner because of his failure
to meet their exalted civil service notions

In visiting institutions for the blind and
the deaf nave made inquiry, and have
never found an'instance of a person born
deaf, or of a child who lost his hearing
before he was four years of age, dreaming
of hearing. Among the results of recent
inquiries I present the following from the
principal Of the State Institution for the
Blind andSDeaf at st. Augustine, Fla:
81 nave closely questioned the deaf
children here as to whether they have ever
dreamed of hearing, and the invariable
answer is no. 1 have asked the same
question of upwards of fifty deaf persons
with the same result, except where the
person Intercepted had lost his hearing
after learning to talk. These last
mentioned are all persons of some educa-
tion who understood the question fpIlylRnd
were very positive that they had never
dreamed Of hearing more.than q rumbling
sound."-Rev. DR.. J. M. Buckley in the
Century.

I don't think that many people outside
the newspaper business are .aware of the
extent to which the so called newspaper
syndicates affect the supply Of reading
matter in the daily papers. The system
is the growth of a few years only, but
bids fair to reyolutionize in a measure
the journalistic profession. Nowadays
most men of mark in the newspaper
world derive their chief income by writ
ing for the syndicates signed articles on
special subjects, which appear in a score
of out Of town papers simultaneously.
Serial and short stories are supplied In
like manner, and In both cases the syndi-
cate can naturally afford to pay higher
rates than any one newspaper proprietor.
The business is one which needs keen
editorial instinct to insure success.-The
Epoch.

MAYOR RINER deserves the thanks of
his party for eifectually settling the trifing
little national dispute in which MI. Cleve-
land and Harrison are now engaged.
While East he discovered as many as a
couple Of hundred men in the little towns
OF New York who are now supporters of
Harrison, and the mayor affects to there
fore believe that the Hoosier man is on
the road to glory. Mayor Riner should
not overlook the fact that New York is a
big state. and when the Democratic bal
lots begin to fall with dull, sickening
thuds in New York City, the son OF. his
grandfather will be buried so deep that it
will require a diamond drill to locate him.
Our worthy mayor might stick a pin here
so as to not loose track of the prediction.

are more than counterbalanced by the con-
s%picuous Republicans who now favor his
revenue reform theories.
Four years ago Cleveland's electoral
vote was 2l9; Blaine's lS2. If New York,
New Jersey (Which has only once gone
Republican in a presidential year,, Con.
n~ecticut and Indiana are rated as doubt
full states then Clcveland's sure electoral
vote is reduced to 1853. But if these
states are doubtful for the Democrats Hi
nois and Minnesota are at least equally
doubtful for the Republicans. This
would reduce the tolerably certain Repub-
lican electoral votes to l63. As a matter
of fact New York is safely Democratic,
leaving only II votes wanting to make
the 20l necessary to a choice.
To secure these twelve necessary votes
there are Connecticut, six votes; Indiana,
fifteen; New jersey, nine, all of which
the Democrats carried four years ago, and
Minnesota, seven, and Illinois. twenty
two, which the Republicans carried -four
years ago, but which circumstances have
now rendered more doubtfullY Republican
than Indiana is doubtfully Democratic.
To acquire these twelve necessary votes
which Indiana can more than furnish
Cleveland has the prestige of an excep-
t~Ionally successful career, of an admins
tration c~ommendable for its honesty which
appeals for support to an immense con-
servative business element of the country
indisposed to administrative changes, to
dissatisfied Republicans who are heartily
in favor of good government or are brought
into the fold by the party's attitude on
the tariff question, and finally to the moral
influence which the party in power is
always in a position to exert.
Even at this early stage of the game
the Democrats are undoubtedly in the
majority and their star IN the ascendency.
We dislike to believe that MI. Dixon
gave a contrary impression to his Repub-
lican friends for two reasons: In the first
place he could never have acquired such
notions among the leading men of the
party whom he met in the East, and in
the second place even if this were posi-
BILE he should be too loyal a Democrat to
go gathering such stuff in the camp of
the enemy.
Mr.. Dixon is therefore Justly entitled
to the floor.

Following a slight Miataka.

1t il surprising to know that a great
failure of business house will sometimes
follow the very slight mistake Of clerk.
Only short time ago feared we would
have to record an unpleasant occurrence
of this kind in st. Louis. Two young men
are doing prosperous wholesale business
here, in whose house small error hap
pened recently, which might have caused
Q collapse of the firm. According to Gus
tom list of notes falling due ut foreign
banks each month is given to tho book
keeper or some proper person around the
Office, who is expected to go to the home
bank with which the firm deals and have
all the notes paid. The bookkeeper OF this
particular house was given list OF the
notes for one month, but inadvertently
failed to report one Of the bills due in
New York, and, Of course, 1t was not set
tied by the home bank. The note went to
protest before the Arm knew that IL had
not been paid, but when the error was dis
covered settlement promptly followed.
Suppose that the creditors Of the firm had
heard that the note had gone 10 protest,
they would have jumped TO the conclusion
that the firm was financially embarrassed.
All the creditors would have rushed in at
once, probably, and under the immense
pressure disastrous failure might have
been precipitated The genius Of n sue
cessful mercantile man lies in his accurate
knowledge and careful supervision of the
details Of his business. Is. Young In

THE SWAMI ANGEL.
bardment began; at p. m, next day,
Fort Pulaski surrendered. There was
amazement In Europe, not unmixed with
CONSERVATION; for one-half the forts in
the world were rendered useless.
9 His next notable success was with the
noted "Swang Angel" big gun used in
tho siege Of Charleston. There was no
new principle Of gunnery involved in this
once noted gun. 1t was simply an eight
inch Parrot rifle Of the finest finish, and
its effectiveness was due to the excellence
of the gun, the scientific use Of the pow
der and the position gained. The gun was
apparently planted in the edge Of the sea,
but really in the shallow marsh between
Morris and James islands. There firm
foundation was laid. low breastwork put
up in circle around the gun, and 100
pound shells were dropped" into Charles
ton. But it was only fired thirty six
times. exploding at the last discharge.
Other guns soon after did as effective
work. but the Swamp Angel" is remem-
bered because it first proved the practica.
bility of the method.
