shine bright above differences of

GA correspondent of the Salt Lake
Herald makes covert and cowardly
attack on the Boise Democrat. This
is none of our affair because it is q
war between political associates. But
it does look as though the great
crime laid at Jud Boyakin's door was
that Of being poor man. In days
gone by he championed the cause OF
many democrat and helped to build
him up; and now that these fellows
have become rich, prosperous and il
their own opinion of some con

reason our sympathies with JuC

What q "Flat Wheel Is.

Two commercial travellers bound for
Chicago were amicably chatting together
in a train recently when one of them sud-
denly ceased talking and appeared to be
listening intently to something. Then
we jumped up, exclaiming excitedly, ST
hasn't mistaken; it is a fiat wheel. sure.
Old man, | am going to stop off at the
next station stYou must be crazy"
said his companion. "The next stop is
Lonelyhurst, and consists of a station and
a water-tank. What's the matter with
You, anywayf"
"There is nothing the matter with
me, was the reply, s'but a good deal
with one of the wheels of this car. II
has become fat
eAnd what is a fat wheel2" "Weli,
it is a wheel which has become worn in
one spot. Sometimes the brake becomes
SO tightly set, that a wheel slips along on
the rail instead of revolving. OF course
the friction on the rail soon wears it
away at the point of contact. Maybe it
isn't worn away the first time; but when
ever the brake is set that spot is very apt
to be arrested by the rail, and so it soon
becomes so much worn that when the
wheel revolves it makes a pat-pat-pat
sound. When that stage is reached then
look out for danger. The wheel no
longer runs true, but pounds, and is
likely any moment to break and ditch
the train. There is such q wheel on this
car, ann though it is evidently not yet
much worn and may get through to Chi
cage all right. I don't propose to take
any chances. I know Lonelyhurst isn't
much of a place, but eve if it has only
a water tank, I prefer it to a car with
a fiat Wheel And in spite of the
ridicule of his companion, he actually
got off at Lonelyhurst, where be waited
for the next through train.
The commercial traveller may have ex-
aggerated the dangerous character OF a
fat wheel, but it is a fact that wheels do
occasionally become thus worn, and that
when discovered they are taken off and
sent to the foundry, to be reeast. Even
if they were not dangerous, they would
be taken of, since it is evident that they
must seriously impede the progress Of the
train, besides annoying the passengers by
their humping noise.-NeW York Tri-
