But the scheme miscarried. 1t made
no allowance for tidal waves. The
luton Of 1890 came, nearly every state
went republican and the democrats
called the turn. The electoral vote or
Michigan will certainly be- divided, with
every prospect that a majority OF the
electors chosen by congress districts
will be democrats. The Journal says:
"It is regarded as certain that under it
the democrats will cur at least four
of the states electoral vote, and they
may ever got seven or eight. This
makes it possible for the democrats to
elect their presidential candidate on the
basis Of the old combination, even allow
ing for the loss Of a small state like Con-
necticut or West Virginia. That is,
with the solid south, New York, New
Jersey, Indiana and four votes from
Michigan the democrats would have a
majority of the electoral college without
Connecticut. So they would, too, with
four vo tes from Michigan added to
those of Connecticut, New York, New
Jersey, Indiana and all the southern
states, except West Virginia. In other
words, by this latest democratic scheme
the republicans, despite their new states,
have been thrown back upon DEEPEN
dence on some OF the old doubtful
states"

Prof. Otis L. Mason, of Columbian uni

Ex-SEcRErARy TAFT, who died in San
Diego yesterday, probably came nearer
to being president of the United States
than history will ever record. In 1875
he was the leading candidate before the
republican state convention in Ohio for
the Office of governor. The state had
rome democratic two years before and
the republicans we're looking for a
strong man to beat rise up" William
Allen. Taft was generally regarded as
the best and most available mar but, at
thsaast moment, the name Of Hayes was
sprung in the convention and Taft was
beaten by a scratch. The republicans
reEasned the state and the prestige of
defeasing Allen made Hayes the party
nominee, for president in the following
year. Had the gubernatorlal nomina-
ton gone to Taft the presidential light.
ening, in all probability, would have
struck him. He was an able jurist and
a man of strong character and rugged
honesty.

THE third party is a fixed fact and the
politicians of all parties must take it
into all their calculations for the next
campaign. Whether it will grow or
dwindle in the next year it is difficult to
predict. The probabilities are that it
will not poll near as large a pro-
portion of the total vote in 1892
as it did in 1890; yet it is
certain to make the situation mighty
interesting in Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska,
Kansas, Michigan, Wisconsin, Mime
sofa and the Dakotas. All these states
could ordinarily be counted upon to
give their electoral vote to the repub-
lican candidates, but even the most san
guine republican politician would hest
tate to claim that even half of them
would be carried by his party under ex-
listing conditions. The republicans must
therefore, count on losing through the
alliance detection more votes-probably
twice as many-as they gained by the
admission OF the new states. Can they
make up these losses? To what demo
cratic state can they look with any hope
Not one. And what serious expecta
tions have they that New York and In
diana would again give their electoral
votes TO Benjamin Harrison?

THE INVENTION OF INK.
Probably First Obtained From the Black
Fluid of the Cuttiefsh.

Probably First Obtained From the Black
Fluid of the CuttIefish.
The ink first used probably was some nat
uraI animal pigment, such as the black fluid
obtained from various species Of cuttletish,
says Chambers journal, but the limited
supply of this material soon led to the use of
IA mechanical mixture of water, gum and
lampbiack, and the characters were painted,
rather than written, by means of a broad
pGinted reed. AS ink of this simple nature
was easily removed from the surface of the
parchment by the mere application of Inois-
ture it was early found necessary to CON
trive some means of forming "a more dura-
BILE ink, and for this purpose the expedient
was adopted OF treating the mixture with
some substance, such as vinegar, of the ma
ture of Il mordant, which would penetrate
the parchment written upon and form III
ink not liable to fade.
A chemical dye, consisting of al infusion
of gals, with sulphate of iron. WAS after
ward used, rs from its yitreous nature i
bit into the medium employed, but r. com
pound vegetable ink containing n good dea
of carbon pigment was subsequent,
adopted, and WAS very generally employed
down tothe middle ages. With ink of thii
sort the best and most ancient manuscript
which have been preserved to us we're writ
ten, and the separate leaves, after beinI
allowed to dry slowly, were bound togethe

as other writer's, give recipes for the manu-
~facture of inks.
