The Farmers Alliance vote in Nebrss-
ka for Governor reaches 10000, this be-
ing 1000 more than that cast for the Re
publican candidate, and 1900 less than
the Democratic vote II appears, too,
that q large proportion Of this vote was
drawn from the Republicans. With
such situation as that in one State, and
4 large vote, this movement is sure TO
grow in the South, the West, and prob
ably in the Northwest for time. 1t is
not likely to spend itself until the Presi-
dental contest two years hence, and may
be represented at that time by national
ticket Of its own. The Alliance claims
to have elected thirty-seven members of
the present House owing allegiance to it
directly, and TO have exercised a controll-
ing influence in the election Of as many
more. All political calculations for the
immediate future certainly must be bas-
ed upon an intelligent appreciation oI
this new force in the political field. II

GENERAL HENDERSON takes little stock
in the talk about the Mckinley bin de-
feating Western Congressman. He saws
that his reelection and the REDEMPTION
of IowS was due 10 an honest snd fear
less discussion of the Mckinley law.
Those who will take the pains to look
over the returns from Iowa and compare
them with the vote in that State . year
ago will agree with Congressman Hen
derson. A year ago Iowa went Demo-
cratic, and is presided over nov by a
Democratic Governor, whose home is in
General Heudersons district. Governor
Boies carried every county in Hender-
sons district because Of his own popular
ifv. This year the Democrats thoaght to
hold their majority boy nominating Judge
Couch, Of Waterloo, the home Of roies.
They made still hunt, and used every
dissatisfaction regarding Henderon's
recommendations for appointments in the
district for all they were worth. Whtn
Henderson came home from Washin, ton
two weeks before the election, the Demo
rr4ts believed that they had him beaten.
Instead Of dodging the Mckinley bin
and apologizing for it. Congressman Hen
derson made il the Issue. He spoke in
all the towns OF his district and discussed
the tariff in every speech. Speaker Reed
sisD made the Mckinley bill the subject
Of his speech at Waterloo. and this irank
and fearless discussion saved the Repub-
iicans from defeat in that part Of Iowa.

bold as Henderson and Mckinley they

Department cf the University, pronounces
mind-reading take, and was in Chicago
last fall when T. Alexander JOhnstone, the
great mind-reader, did bis wonderful feats.
Professor Gaschel studied the matter thor
oughly, and finally concluded that hecould
do the same "trick," as he calls it, and all
the other tri ks which Johnstone did.
Mr.. Johnstone gave an exhibition here
this afternoon, and Professor Gatchel has
not changed his opinion of his work, and
has made an offer of 500 TO the gy mnasium

This afternoon Professor GsIehei did John
stones great feat of driving lively team on
the dead run through number Of streets
over which the corrmit,ee had previously
driven.
The first thing done was to decide on q
word to be taken from Webster's Dictionary,
and the committee decided on ''mucilage-
A team had been procured, was driven over
q route thirt,el blocks long. turning hrst
one way and then the other, and complica-
ting the route as much as possible, ending
where they he'd started.
The committee then blindfolded Professor
Gatchel with heavy bandsge and then
drew a thick hood over bis head and tied il
close around the neck
Everything being ready the professor and
committee jumped into the carriage. Pro.
fsssor Gatchel took the lines and drove the
horses on dead run, drst turning one way
and then the other, following the exac
route taken by the committee One Of th'
committee asked ifhe could not drive litil'
slower. and he laughingly said; us mind
readers sll drive thi. way" and lashed ih'
horses into faster run.
On arriving back at the OH e he went e
the dictionary turned. AFTER little hesita
ton, TO ihe right page, and calling for I
paper aud pencil wrote the word "Ancilage'
without hesitAiing. An overcoai was thrown
over his head during this latter part of tn
test as an extra prccsution.
