THE USES OF THE TELA UToGRAPH.


This invention OF Prof Elisha
Gray OF Chicago, which has recently
been perfected and tested to the
satisfaction of the inventor and all
disinterested parties who witnessed
its operations, is to be put on the
market next fall by company
formed for the purpose. AS the
name implies, the instrument is de-
signed to transmit in facsimile by
wire to any distance any pen marks
made on paper. Prof. Gray has been
seven years employed in working
out this problem. What is likely to
be the commercial value Of the in
vention? The projectors see great
future for it, In the first place it is
claimed that the invention will sup
plant the whole machinery OF the
present telegraph aside from the
poles and wires. A cheap boy i'll an
office whocan write will do the work
OF an expert telegrapher with this
machine. More often the operator
will not need to write at all, but
merely feed the instrument the copy
OF the person sending a dispatch.
Persons at a distance can be identi-
fed where acquainted with the au
tographs Of one another Arbitrary
signs or trade marks can be dis
patched in orders for goods, etc.
The person at either end OF the wire
can file away for future reference an
exact copy of his own dispatch as
well as that of the one received.
The receiver works without any at
tention. Hence to Offices where in
struments are placed, dispatches
may be sent, which will be found
duly written out in facsimile when
the occupant OF the office returns,
and thus dispatches received at a
nam office in town can be distrib-
uted to places having instruments
without the aid OF messengers, and
when no one is present to receive
them. The wires cannot be tapped
in this case, and hence a secrecy in
the transmission OF messages is pos
sible, which is not so in either the
telegraph or telephone. Sketches of
places, portraits, diagrams and
maps can be transmitted by wire,
and hence the value of the invention
to newspapers. If all this is to be
accomplished, it will be seen that
Prof. Gray's invention must indeed
have before it the prospect Of sup
planting the telegraph and to some
degree perhaps the telephone.

MUNICIPAL REFORM.

The city club, which was organized
about a year ago for the purpose of
purifying municipal politics, has
begun work in earnest. 1t has a
club house upon Fifth avenue where
members OF either party who believe
III and are willing to work for re-
form, are welcome committee of
the club is at present investigating
two or three OF the recent appoint
ments made by Mayor Gilroy and
also considering the advisabilty of
obtaining an expression of public
opinion regarding them This club
is likely to be a considerable factor
III the municipal campaign two years
hence, when there will be an excellent
opportunity offered to turn down"
Tammany hall. There are already
heard murmurings of discomfort
among certain elements in the organ
izatlon, who believe that Croker
and Gilroy, who represent the older
heads, most of whom received their
politlcal training under the late
lamented William M. Tweed, are
carrying things with too high a
hand. The younger element in the
hall is represented by such men as
exMayor Grant, whom Gilrov has
taken every opportunity of sncering
at since he succeeded him as the city 5
chei executive, and Police Commits
sloner Martin. These men say that
1t is great mistake to force upon
the people OF the city such men as the
Murderer Scannell, recently made
hre commissioner, and Koch, the
friend OF the liquor dealers, now a
police justice, who disgraced himself
by appearing drunk in court when
summoned to plead to an indict-
ment. This better element in the
organization believes with Lincoln
that YOU can fool some OF the people
all OF the time, all of the people some
OF the time, but not all OF the people
all OF the time, and that this fragrant
disregard OF public opinion will sure
" result in an uprising which will
force the organization into retire

a RIDE ON A COWCATCHER.

Before leaving Vancouver we had
been given permit to ride on the
cowcatcher. There had been some
difficulty in getting it, as the Off
Gals of the Canadian Pacific had
rather discouraged the idea, and had
tried hard to persuade us that all
purposes would be answered bv our
riding with the engine driver; but
then they were obliged to allow that
the scenery could be seen far and
away better from the front of the en-
gine-that given strong head the
ride on a cowcatcher was delightful,
and that several ladies had done it
already. What other ladies had
done we felt sure we could do too.
and so eventually our permit was
given us. 1t desired the driver of the
engine to let us ride in front of it be-
tween certain named stations, and it
stated that we did so at our own
risk and peril and took all danger to
lie or limb on ourselves. 1t was
rather an ngly.worded mis-
sive, but we saw that the order was
numbered far on into the second
hundreds, SO that we were far from
being the first people who had treat
cd themselves to these risks and dan

Governor OF that State. and is true now Of
bis getting the job to preside over that mis-
Cellaueous collection OF futilitie. known us

pointmcnt breaks its traditions. IL an up

But since he Is pleased with his job. let
us say this OF him: STERLING MORTON has
stood up as straight US trivet for his ideas
OF Democracy. He has never joined IN
with the GranEers or Populists OF the Bug
Enter State. for printing press money. Sub
Treasures. or other idiocy. He has stuck
to straight Democracy in Nebraska. and
sometimes has got considerable degree of
solitude thereby. He whacked away ut
protection before some OF the young gente-
men who arc now prolcc ting above the
horizon had rut away long stockings and
assumed the manly trousers. He is free

SUMNER or Prof. ARTHUR LATHAM PERRY re-

ecribed book to him. He hates protection
worse than he hates foot and mouth dis

Democratic platform. II believe" he said
on Saturday. that the Government has no
right to tax except 10 obtain revenue for
its support
That is the talk Mr.. MORTON drives a
straight economic furrow. and having put
his hand to the plough. will not turn back.
He Is opposed to tho Anti-Option bill. and
his remarks about it are refreshing:
