No Political Revolution I'm

One hears the question asked on
the street, what do you think Of
Secretary Blaine's position He
has expressed sentiments conflicting
with Mckinley tariff bill. The
free traders regard him hopefully
as tending towards their doctrines
There need be no alarm for the po-
litical soundness of Mr.. Blaine His
political sagacity as statesman
has been tested through too many
trials of the country to be doubted
now as not having the best interest
of the people in view. If he ex-
presses difference with some of the
newer lights that have sprung up
regarded as political leaders, his
soundness for that reason need not
be questioned. It must be kept in
mind that the late Peace Congress.

can States, held in the city of
Washington was the result of the
efforts of Mr. Blaine, and a meas
ure which he commenced to agitate
a quarter of a century ago. Now
that this long sought for event has
been accomplished Mr. Blaine S
plan in the matter of tariff is to adj
nit South American products duty
free, provided the South American
States will grant food products and
manufactures from this country
admission free. Mr. Blaine had been
charged with being opposed to the
free sugar provision in the McKin-
ley bill: this he denies, saying he is
not opposed to the importation OF
sugar free, but he is opposed to the
method of securing it; he proposes
to obtain sugar free Of duty by a
reciprocal arrangement with South
America: our products being ad-
mitted duty free, and theirs in re
turn also free. This is his plan for
obtaining sugar duty free. The
sugar consumed in this country
comes largely, tho not wholly, from
South American States and coun-

IT Is of no practical Importance
to revive the recollection of the once
common practice of using the words

and writing. The practice of Civ
ing the feminine form to some words
was no doubt intended torender the
language more graceful and pleas
ing. This subject is suggested by
seeing it alluded to in an exchange.

most used words in the English
language, was relieved Of constant
employment by the substitution of

more common by clergymen than
any other class of public speakers.

RAILROAD RUMBLINGS
POSSIBILITY OF A TRANs-CONTI-
 MENTAL LINE FOR PHENIX.
Feasibility of a Road From Albuquerque to San Diego by Way of the Salt and Gila River Valleys.

The San Diego Union has an article in which it refers to the possibility of another road from the East to that city. It says, referring to railroad map it saw in the hands of an Arizona engineer of prominence;
 A line of red ink had been drawn across the continent from New York city to St. Louis, Missouri, following the Pennsyl- vania Central, which is almost an air line From St. Louis the red line slanted trife to the south, following the St. Louis and San Francisco for 440 miles to Sapulpa, Indian Territory. From that point to San Diego is gap of 1000 miles which, if filled in with arailroad to San Diego, would cross the Santa Fe some where in New Mexico between Socorro and Albuquerque. Thence westward it would strike the headwaters of Salt River in the western part of New Mexi- co, and would run down Salt River in Arizona, through the Gila valley, through Phoenix and Yuma to the tide water at San Diego.
 "The points want to emphasize for this route," says the engineer, "are these: First, the dYectness. The road would be practicallyian air line. From New York to San Diego, passing through St. Louis, midway of the continent, the route would be 475 miles shorter than any road now running from New York to San Francisco. Second, following the system of valleys the grade would be lighter than any other could possibly be. Third, the large extent of productive agricultural valleys in Arizona, the ex- tensive stock regions in the east, the nearness of important mineral districts, and the passage by one of the most ex- tensive pine forests in the world at Apache county, Arizona.
 "While our people are encouraging the building of a north and south line of road, we also appreciate the San Diego proposition as the most important one that can be offered. l have been getting all data possible here, and you may depend upon it that we will be heard from. The line from Yuma to San Diego is perfectly feasible, as engineers long ago proved by surveys"
 Superintendent Wade of the Santa Fe, who has just returned from the East, says the Texas cotton crop is un- precedentedly large, and is taking all the cars that can be furnished. The work of moving cattle around by citizens, from the Indian Territory, has also commenced, and as, by the terms of the Presidents proclamation, the work must be done by December 8, the rush is something indescribable. The cattle are going into Chicago at the rate of 15,000 day without overstocking the market. Two years ago 1000 cattle day would break down the market, but the Worlds Fair has changed all that.

ALMOST AN ACCIDENT.
Governor Hill Is In Smashup on the
 Baltimore and Ohio.


 CAMERON, w. Va., October 25.-Gov- ernor Hill and party, accompanied by Chairman Riley, of the Democratic State committee, Governor Fleming and others left Wheeling this morning over the Baltimore and Ohio road.
 A Chicago express overlook the Gov ernor's train on curve and crushed into it before it could be stopped. Gov ernor Hills train was thrown back on the accommodation train. Behind this latter was heavily loaded freight train and the two trains together were thrown back on that. The engine cow-catchers and the platform of several cars were torn away.
 Had the Governors train consisted of ordinary coaches they would have been crushed like egg shells between the two heavy trains. As it was both cars es- capped without scratch. The accident was due to failure of the air brakes to work on the Chicago express.
 After delay of two hours the two parlor cars was attached to the rear of the accommodation train and proceeded.

THE MARKETS.

NEW YORK. October 25.-The stock market today was q continuation of the depression of the past two days, but sugar rehneries held steady. The bear attack today was directed principally against the Union Pacific, upon the strength of a reported disagreement between that road and granger roads, and the pressure so heavy its price was forced off to 42la, the lowest figure known for years. On the theory that any dissension in the West must result in damage to all roads in that section, granger stocks were sold with great freedom, especially St. Paul, this stock at one time being down to 56l1; also the lowest price for some time Heavy covering before the close by shorts brought everything up somewhat. However, the list is all lower, but losses, except in Union Pacific, which is 2ss lower, and St. Paul "a. and Chicago Gas lls, are for fractional amounts only. Silver certificates were extremely weak, and declined to slO3, but recovered with stocks to sl04 at the close, which, however is a loss of lAc,

LEAD MINING
Much Stimulated by the Passage of the

Much StImuIated by the Passage Of the
 New Tariff Law.
 ALBUQUERQUE. October 25.-The late action of Congress in levying tariff on Mexican lead ores has done much to stimulate the mining industry in this Territory. A large number of mines that have been closed for years under the free lead policy have already re- stunned with full complements of men and others are starting every day.
 In Magdelena camp alone over 400 men have been put to work in mines that have been idle for years and it is estimated that more than 1000 men have found employment in various camps within the last few weeks.

 NEW YORK, October 25.-The mem- bers of the Ale and Porter Brew ers' National Association have signed an agreement to charge $ll as the minimum price for hogshead ale or porter of all grades.
 The members of the association spent some time in discussing the advisability of substituting American for Canadian and English barley for the malt used in brewing ale. It was at last decided to do this, and the farmers of the United States can thank the new tariff law for creating home market for 30,000 900 bushels of barley yearly.

The Strange Story of AIissourian Who
Wasted to Go to Bed.
A typical aissourian appeared at the

asked for a room. He said his name
was John Wakely. About 8 o'clock he

clerk. whats the name? Wakely.
Oh, yes: give you No. 561-front room,
with bath; southern exposure. You can
get dinner at 6"
The fellow stood like a bronze for a
few moments. and then took chair op-
posite the counter. At 6 o'clock another
clerk came on watch, and Wakely went
to him, saying:
My names Wakely. Guess I'll re-
main"
THANK you, Mr. Wakely. Let's see,

house. Just make yourself at home

Certainly, Mr.. Wakely. 1 am going
to eat my luncheon now, but if can dc

clerk, returned TO his chair, where he did
not move until a. m. Then he was dis
