result. Men from Missouri, Illinois
Kansas and Texas are, almost without
exception, feeter and more graceful
swimmers than those who were bor1
and brought up on the New England
coast. The reason for this is the differ
ence between fresh and salt water.
When one who has learned to swim il
fresh water gets into the ocean he feels
as if he could never become wearied.
The denser water SO buoys his limbs that
they appear to weigh nothing and he l.
astonished at the speed he attains.
Another notable fact is that the pro
portion of men bred on the seaboard
who cannot swim is very much greater
than among inlanders. At New Bed.

sailor in five can swim and the same il
true of other points on the New England
coast. With the people from the south
west, certainly with those who were
bred in the country, the nonswimmer is
an exception. The cause Of this is that
the weather is warm enough for out
door bathing during more months Of the
year in the southern and southwestern
states than on the sea coast, and scarcely

THE DENVER PLAN.
The West to Combine Against Wall
Street.


DENVER (Col.), April IS The
Rocky Mountain News IN leading
editorial to-day puts forward the sill
yer Democratic plan of campaign to
be followed should Cleveland or an
equally pronounced gold bug be nom
mated. 1t says. There are thous-
ands of Republicans in Colorado who
will not vote for Harrison and thous-
ands of Democrats who will not vote
for Cleveland Yet driven from
their own parties by nominees wear
ing the yoke of Wall Street, they
will be disinclined to vote for the
nominee of the Omaha Convent ion,
who though sound on silver, will also
represent 50 many issues that their
Judgment cannot assent to them.
1t saws: Let the Democrats in
the State conventions, if action at
Chicago shall force it, select electors
pledged to vote against Cleveland
and for such free coinage Democrats
as Senator Morgan OF Alabama and
Congressman Bland of Missouri.
AS State Conventions are held
after the National Convention, it is
in the power of the former conven-
tons to choose only those electors
who will vote for a silver man, no
matter who may be nominated by
the National Convention.
1t urges that this course be pur-
sued by Democrats OF Colorado, Cali
fornia, Montana, Wyoming, Iowa,
Nevada, Washinltonand Oregon; also
by those of Kansas, Nebraska and
certain Southern States. ~ this
course the integrity Of tlo Demo
cratic organic ttians VIII ,e preserved
and the election Tor President thrown
into the House, in which event
free-ccinage candidate would ulti-
mately be elected, as the free coin
age sentiment produced by such can
vass would insure the election Of
free-coinage Congress. The .urse
of the Cleveland contingent in New
York is urged as ample warrant for
the irregularity. The Article closes
rs follows:
''This Denier resort for free coin
age men is worthy Of calm and earn

ion be passed over lightly the gray
