Ing. nor the hccler or repeater, nor any
Of the many and numerous kinds and
classes OF noXious agents always active
and busy in the turmoil of politics.
The worst orCmy Is the man who
makes all these possible, the man who
sirrendcrs into their hands the power
ne Is unworthy to possess and unfit to
WELD, the man who never votes.
To every right-minded citizen his citi-
zenship is a trust. his ballot is IL weapon

His refusal to vote Is "A surrender Of

Acknowledgement OF himself Is n crime

The Republic should repudiate the

The Top Half Travels Faster.

~ u EJultOT
In answer to ". r. MS letter In to-day's edi-
ton. In reference to a sulky wheel. allow me to
state that the .op half does move quicker than the
lower half. owing to its having two motions at
tho came time. ! will try to make 1t clear to you.
First, 1t has It's natural revolving motion on Its
own axis: second. 1t has the motion of the top
half trying to revolve around the lower half.
Surprising you have q wheel built In which two OF
the spokes are exactly opposite. Now. imagine
the surface Of the earth. where the end OF the
bottom spoke rests, as the centre Of a circle, and
the diameter Of your wheel as half the diameter
Of said circle; you will now see that the ends OF
tho top spoke Is tracing an arc through the air.
while the end OF the lower spoke Is at rest at
the centre OF your Imagined circle. namely. the
surface OF the earth. This was illustrated TO me
by tho head master on II. NJ. s. Conway. an Eng
lish training ship. during q lecture on nautical

THE SENATORIAL SLUMP.

The majority Of the Senate, under the
lead of MIR. voorhees,, gave up the
physical endurance attempt to force a
vote on the silver Repeal bill n few min
utes before . o'clock this morning and
adjourned the continuous session. 1t
was found impossible to muster a
quorum. The twcnty-three Senators
who were absent from the Chamber. al
though in the city. had managed to con-
ceal themselves effectually from the
searching eyes Of the Sergeant-at-Arms
and his assistants, or the eyes OF the
officers had been conveniently closed.
At all events, n quorum could not be OBJ
tanned, so Senator voorhees,, at l.D In
the morning, wiped his spcctacles, placed
them carefully in their case, closed the
case with "A snap, and moved to adjourn.
The yawning. rcd-eyei, but triumphant
minority of the silver sellers went home
to bed. and majority rule in the Senate
received its quietus.
What next? Is it to be compromise =
or Is the end to be tn" triumph Of TIE
minority over the majority and the end
of all legislation for the rest of the SEES
sion? Let the minority win now. and a
handful of Senators hereafter, bent on
defeating any measure" of any G.Scrip-
ton, will take the majority by the throat
and rule the whole Congress.
