THE MAN FOR 1892.

The Denver News strongly opposes
the nomination of New York democrat
for president in 1892. 1t wants west
ern man. All right. Pick out your man
and convince the national convention
that he can carry New York and the
convention will undoubtedly take him
New York and Indiana will be the bat
tleground again. Make no mistake
about that. Is there western man of
great strength in both states? New
York has generally supported its own
sons well and given them it's electoral
vote. Seymour carried the state in 1868,
Tilden in 1876, Cleveland in 1884. The
exceptions have been the defeat. of
Greeley by Grant in 1872 and that of
Cleveland by Harrison in 1888, but New
York never gives its electoral vote twice
in succession to the same party. The
state went republican in 1864, demo
cratic in 1868, republican in 1872, demo.
cratic in 1876, republican in 1880, demo.
cratic in 1884, republican in 1888, and in
1892 the pendulum is sure to swing tc
the democratic side again.
It would be mighty poor politics not
to consult the opinions Of the men be.
hind the thirty-six electoral votes ol
the Empire state as to the choice of can
didate. That folly was committed wher
Hancock was nominated. The vote Of
New York would have elected him.

Weeping Trees.

In tho FIR forests of Warrington and Brit
ish Columbia have frequently seen the
trees dripping copiously during clear, bright
days, when no dew was visible elsewhere,
says writer in American Notes and Queries.
The dripping was SO profuse that the ground
underneath the trees was almost saturated.
The phenomenon, in this case was caused
by the remarkable condensing power of the
leaves of the fir, and it occurred only when
the relative humidity was near the dew
point. The dripping ceased after 10 or II
O'clock in the morning, but resumed at or
near sunset.
In Hakluyt's Voyages there is an &C.
count of Hawkins second voyage to Africa
and America. written by gentleman who
sailed with Hawkins, in which We are told
that in the island of Ferro there is weep
ing tree which supplies all the men and
beasts of the island with drink, there being
no other available water supply! Further,
he states that In Guinea he saw many weep
ing trees, but of q species different from
that of Ferro.

Inundated Republicans.

''Never was there in the halls of congress
q more thorough and humiliating exhibition
and spectacle of the domination of the eau
Gus than in the action of the republican
majority of the house on the Window silver
decentralization bill," says the Denver
News. Republicans, we'll known and de-
clared friends of silver coinage, obeyed the
dictates of their party caucus and stultified
themselves by voting for measure to which
they were opposed, some absolutely wallow-
ing in their qualification, while others
offered the poor excuse that they looked to
the senate to correct the evil provisions of
the bill. That there was a pronounced ma
jority of the house if not wholly in favor of
free coinage certainly opposed to the bull
lion redemption clause of the bill, cannot
be doubted, and yet many of these men,
beers danced to the music of the goldbugs a.
piped by the money centers and echoed BY
Spsaker Reed and the presidential threat Of
veto of any free coinage bill"

XIII the Windom Job.

y
Salt Lake Tribune, Rep: Il would b
better to let the matter rest and make the
issue in the coming congressional cam
paiGns, than to permit such legislation to
place in the hands of Mr.. Window the
power to still further depreciate silver as
compared with gold, and still further for
the sake of personal gain to add to the bur
dens Of the producers of the United States.
The sentiment Of the men of the west is
that rather than pass such bill they would
like to teach both parties an object lesson
In the coming campaign. Mr.. Cleveland
was defeated because he enforced his will
and forced his party to abandon silver in
their platform. Mr.. Harrison was elected
because of the plank in the platform
that promised gold and silver money to the
country for all purposes, not money to be
redeemed in bullion, but money to be used
in its most sovereign attributes. The men
of the west pledged the people that if no
should DO elected this pledge Of the plat
form would be carried out. They had 4
right to do it, both from the pledges Of the
party platform and the pledges of the clcs-
est friends of the president himself, and
now, if the object is to destroy the chief
money function of silver, it 10 better to let
the law stand as it is. Then, by the time
| the smoke of the election battle shall have
passed away, Mr.. Harrison and Mr.. Win
dom will have learned a lesson. Mr.. Reed
will have learned lesson, and all
the shrieking harpies whose horizons
are no broader than Wall street will have
learned lesson, and the west and south
will take control of the nation. Mr.. Speak
er Reed spoke reproachfully TO some Salt
Lake gentlemen because the Tribune mild
ly opposed his election AZ speaker, fearing
that as speaker he would use his place to
beat back Justice in regard to silver legisla-
ton. It seems the Tribune was not far out
Of the way. The lesson from it all to be
learned is that the duty of men is to take
care of themselves, and that when vital
question is pending which affects the in
terests Of the whole nation they should, re-
Rardless of party ties and regardless of per-
sonal friendships, make the best fight they
can to cause the right to win. The senate
must strike out the bullion-r exemption
clause or kill the bill.

Nor only does the democratic party Of
to-day represent the broadcast and most
conservative ideas Of government and
hold the only sound and logical views OF
political economy, but it is the one party
that has leaders courageous enough tc
condemn the worthless nostrums for pub.
lie ills which political quacks are seeking
to impose upon the people. All the
eocialistic schemes, such as Stanford'e
for lending money on farm mortgages at
9 per cent. interest, building government
granaries and making loans on ware
house certificates, and like measures
have recently been scored by Carlisle
Herbert and other representative demo
Gratis. But not a republican voice has
been uplifted against them.

ibid you ever try the power of magnet

friend of mine at the theater recently. "It's

ulty Of late, and have great fun out of it.

the parquet circle, saw several rows of
chairs anead of me young lady of my ac-
qualntance. She was sitting so that she
would have 70 turn clean around to look at
me, and thought IL good chance to test
my power. | called the attention of nv
companion to her, and said: Now, watch
me make her look around Then conceE-
trated my gaze on the back of her bonnet.
and my mind on the idea of controlling her
action. By and by she began to look
around tue house rather nervously, glancing
everywhere, and then she turned clear
around and looked straight int my eyes.

caused her to do SO unusual thing, but she

1--WE tried it lots of other times. 1 was
at musicale the other evening. and during
| one or two painful numbers picked out ac-
| quaintancss around the house and made
them look at me. Each time the person

eyes would roam about the audience-some-
times up at the ceiling and then at the floor

straight into NINE. it's psychic communi-

| My friend knitted his browS and looked
at the bald spot intently for five minutes
without making 1T vince. Then he frownei
omlnously, and his gaze grew more pierre

OF this he gave up, saying the man never
