NEVER was the ingratitude of the par
ties more aptly illustrated than in the
turning down of every aspirant for polit-
ical honors who was prominent in the
legislative war two years ago on the Re
publican side. In that time of terror,
when bloodshed was imminent, and none
could tell what an hour would bring
forth, when men of nerve were needed to
head the Republican hosts, leadership
was cheerfully yielded to Hoch, Doug
lass, Hughes and WEIGH. Now that the
danger is past and Republican victory
seems assured it appears that these men
are not needed in the capacity Of party
leaders Even so poor q recognition as
a nomination for representative in his
own legislative district has been denied
to Mr.. WEIGH. It doesn't pay to fight
legislative wars. Next time, let the sSoId
crowds do their own lighting if there is
lighting TO do

WELLINGTON ADAMS St Louis and
Chicago viii probably be pushed to
completion Under its charter the COM
pany is empowered to construct prac-
tically straight line between those
points.
The road will be double track, stand
ard gauge, with 70 pound rails laid
upon hard wood ties, with rock ballast
ed foundation All bridges will be of
standard steam railroad construction.
There will be no railroad or country
road crossings at grade. The line will
pass over all railroads, and the country
roads will be thrown over the tracks by
means of bridges The road will be
operated from four electric power sta
tiOns each located at the mouth of a
coal mine owned by the company and
situated along the line. Fifty sections
of five miles each v i'll constitute the
electrical divisions of the road Behind
each section having a car upon it there
will be a dead section, on which it will
be impossible for any car to run so long
as a train is upon the preceding section,
rendering it impossible for two trains
to be upon one section at the same
time. thus making a most complete and
perfect block system.
1t is the intention to run passenger,
express and mail trains at the rate of
100 miles an hour, these cars making
no stops between the two cities and
making the entire distance in three
hours, whereas it now takes all day to
accomplish the journey. The motor
passenger cars will be constructed of
steel and will be long and low, the top
of the car being but nine feet from the
rails, and the front will be semiwedge
shape to lessen atmospheric resistance.
The rails will be fitted with mitered
joints, doing away with the. shock and
click that prevail in the present methods.
The originator and general manager
of the scheme, DIR. Wellington Adams,
is Chicago electrician well known
throughout the west to fnanciers and
railroad men, and the prospects are that
we shall soon witness a great advance
ment IN railroad travel

JUST when the Republicans in con-
gress and the manufacturers in the coun-
try have succeeded in convincing the
Democrats that their position on the tar
if is wrong, aud they are about to pass
a tariff bill differing very little from the
Mckinley act it is too bad to have Col.
Conger of Ohio, throw cold water on
them by declaring that protection is a
dead issue. Poor Democrats! What is
a party to do that has no ideas of its own
that it dare stand by? The Republi-
cans seem to have been playing with the
Democratic majority. They have heard
from the people. The Democrats never
seem to hear from any body but the
trusts and comb ines.

BOwLDER OVER THE GRAVE OF JOHN BOYLE
OREILLY.
into the massive rock which fifty marks
his grave, and bronze medallion Of
the poet has been sunk into the face of
the monument directly over the spot
where his body reposes-
The medallion of O'Reil1y is beauti-
fully executed in relief and is the work
of Sculptor John Donoghue. It is a
work of art, and Mrs. O'Reilly and the
friends of the poet regard it as an abso-
lutely faithful likeness. The placing of
the stone from Dowth in the bowlder
fulfills as nearly as possible O'Reilly's
wish It is a block of yellow sandstone
16 inches long, 4 high and deep. The
letters 81 B. orr are plainly dis
cernible and are quite regular in out
line, but time and exposure have near
ly obliterated the date of 500
The immense rock above the grave is
a part of the ledge underlying the burial
plot, is pentagonal in shape, 10 feet in
height and weighs in the neighborhood of
75 TONS Around its base are planted 100
ivies from Dowth castle and two others
from the grave of Martha Washington.
The scenery around the grave is wooded
and rugged and is considered the hand
soonest spot in Hollywood.

JOHN BOYLE o,REILLY,s GRAVE.
A Huge BowIder With Bronze Medallion
of the Poet Marks the Spot.


When boy in his native town Of
Dowth, Ireland, John Boyle O'Rei1ly,
the poet, carved his name ON one Of the
stones in the wall of the ancient church
at that place, and it was his wish that
when life's journey had ended he might
sleep in the old burying ground which
surrounds it, with the stone he himself
had carved to mark his last resting
place Later, when he visited the grave
of General Sheridan at Arlington ceme-
terry, Virginia, he was much impressed
with the beauty of the surroundings
and especially with the striking me-
mortal above the grave of the great sol
dier-a bronze medallion of the general
set in a huge bowlder-and he was
moved to remark, ut is worth while
being dead to rest beneath a memorial
like this
When the poet editor died, it was
found impossible to carry out his de-
sire to lay his remains in Irish soil,
and he was buried in the beautiful GEM
etery of Hollywood, near Boston, but the
old stone from Dowth churchyard has
been transferred from Ireland and set

A RIVAL TO PULLMANS.
Sleeping Cars to be Made at ST. JOSEPH
With Aiumtn um Fixtures.

ST. JOE, June 22.-The Williams Pal
ace Car company capitalized at $3,0OO,-
OOO will, it is announced, begin the con =
struction of cars in this city to compete
with the Pullman and Wagner compa-
MES.
There is a large saving of weight in
the Williams car. According to 4 state
ment given out the berths will be lit
tie longer than those in the Pullman and
the Wagner cars and about the same
width. They will be arranged in about
the same manner with upper and
lower tiers. The rack upon which the
mattresses will rest will be made of
aluminium, enclosed in a case of wood,
and will fold up in the same manner
that an ACCORDION does, and be deposited
in the wall of the car In a space of one
and seven eighths of an inch thickness.
Upon these frames will rest the mat
tres SEES made of cloth and rubber, which
will be inflated with air Immediately be-
fore being put in use. In the summer
chilled air and in the winter warmed air
will be used.

IT seems the silver Democrats OF Ne
braska wish to endorse the Chicago plat
form and then allow their Mr.. Bryan to
construe the platform to suit himself
His construction of that wonderful in
strument would be radically different
from that of Mr.. Cleveland. How much
simpler it would make matters if politi-
cal parties would formulate platforms
that only admit of one construction and
that the one intended. The English
language is certainly copious enough for
this purpose. Why don't they stop try
ing to fool the people?

A STRONG movement has been inaug-
urated in England for the abolition of
the house of lords As there seems to
be a growing disposition on this side of
the water to ape everything English,
how would it do to initiate them in this

True, the member do not hold their po-
sitions by hereditary right, but there is
little difference, many of them seem

For Anti-sufrragists HID Case Says Old
Line Democrats Are For Suffrage.
A. H. Case, who is known as a strong
Democrat, said today in speaking of the
attitude of the Democrats on the suffrage
question:
Il have not found a single one of the
old fashioned pro-slavery Democrats in
Kansas who is opposed to woman suf-
frage. 1t seems to have been bred in
them that it is not right for women to
hold Office and go to the polls, but they
are now in favor of suffrage for women.

me about suffrage that l don't want to be
classed with either of the three classes

SUTRO TUNNEL ATTACHED
A Once Famous Construction May be
Sold for q Small Debt.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 22.-The Exam
liner states that the big Sutro tunnel in
the Comstock mining region, Nevada,
has been attached to force the settle
ment of claims aggregating $4,000
against the Comstock Tunnel company,
which now controls the property.
The original cost of the tunnel is said
to have been something like $4,000, 900,
but owing to the decline of mining OPP
erations on the Comstock the property
has greatly deprecated in value. The
claims for which the attachments were
issued were made by attorneys formerly
in the employ of the tunnel company.
