the party press first denied that the Up
ham company had ever ISSUED scrip or
dealt In coupon books When It was
proven beyond any doubt that the com
pany had done both, then all efforts were
turned In the direction OF showing that no
wrong had been done.
In the controversary that is raging there
is danger that the real question Mt issue
will be lost sight Of That Is tho question
of public policy. The Upham store system
has become II live issue. The question for
tho people to decide is whether 1t shall be
continued; whether 1t Is sound public
policy to permit this sort of business
methods Therc is no personal attack on
Major Upham. With him the people havS
pany that through the force OF circumt
stances has come to be looked upon as the
representative of vicious system which
ought to be abolished by law. But the
Republican party has assumed to cham
pion the system just as 1t assumed the
task, few years ago OF championing tho
cause of the cx-statr treasurcrs. 1t Is clear
TO every mans mind, therefore, that tho
success OF the Republican party this fall
means the continuance OF the coupon store
check system, with all it's injustice to cm-
ployes. II the seal of public approval is
given to the system there will be dozen

SOMETHING NEW IN ELECTRICITY.

1t May BE supplied Either by Trolley,
Storage, or Third Rail.
Locomotives with electricity AS the
power promise to be built in Boston,
which will meet all requirements for pro
polling railroad trains. One now rapidly
nearing completion is an eight horse
power machine and is unique. The dis.
tinctive feature Of the invention, says the
Boston Transcript, is the substitution of u
piston and cylinder place of the usual
rotary power. The cylinder is much
longer than for steam purposes and has in
its interior series of magnets. The
piston passes entirely through the
cylinder with crossheads at either end
On the piston within the cylinder is u
series of armaturcs Of peculiar construc
ton.
On the axle of the driving wheels are
commutators whose function Is to apply
and cut off the electric current just as the
eccentrics control the steam of a steam
engine, The principle of the machine Is
the, admission Of the current to tho mag
nets in the cylinder, which are in advance
of the piston rod, and by their action on
the armatures the piston rod Is moved for
ward. AS the stroke is ended the current
is cut off from the magnets first charged
and appl ed to those at the rear of the
piston, giving 1t u reverse motion, thus
maintaining strong, regular motion.
There is absolutely no back pressure from
the electric current, while in rotary
motor this is estimated at 20 per cent. of
the force applied.
1t lis practicable to run the machine u
200 revolutions of the axle per minute, and
with driving wheel eight and onc-half
feet in diameter and the crank pit three
feet from the centre there would be a six
foot stroke under full head of power.
The machine is adapted to receive the
electric current either by n trolley wire,
third rail in the track, or from "A storage
battery.
