sweet ard winning ways was great
favorite Of all who knew her and
many friends extend their heartfelt

blessed them, will take little Gussie

AN ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE.

An electric locomotive is being con-
structed in Boston which the Trans
script thinks is likely to meet all the
requirements for railroad purposes. 1t
is an eight-horse power machine and
is thus described:
The distinctive feature of the inven-
ton is the substitution of piston and
cylinder in place of the usual rotary
motor for the application of power. The
cylinder is much longer than for steam
purposes, and has in its interior a
series of magnets. The piston passes
entirely through the cylinder, with
cross-heads at either end. On. the pis-
ton within the cylinder is a series of
armatures of peculiar construction. On
the axle of the driving wheels are
commutators whose function is to ap-
ply and cut off the electric current,
just as the eccentrics control the steam
of steam engine.
The principle of the machine is the
dullilSSlOu VI the Current 10 lH6 mag
nets of the cylinder, which are in adj
vance of the piston rod, and by their
action on the armatures the piston rod
is moved forward. AS the stroke is
ended the current is cut off from the
magnets first charged, and applied to
those at the rear of the piston, giving
it reverse motion, thus maintaining
strong, regular motion. There is
absolutely no back pressure from the
electric current. while in rotary mo-
tor this is estimated at 20 per cent of
/ the force applied.
1t is practicable to run the machine
at 200 revolutions of the axle per min
ute, and with driving wheel eight
and one-half feet in diameter and the
crank pin three feet from the center
there would be a six-foot stroke, under
Ia full head of power. The machine is
adapted to receive the electric current
either by a trolley WIRE third rail in
the track or from storage battery.

blame subordinate officials such as
division superintendent train masters
and train dispatchers for withholding
such information-they are but in line
with fixed policy-no discretion is
allowed them in the matter. But there
are yet railroad officials in the west
who might well profit from living ex-
amples set them not far distant.
It would seem to be for the best
interests of the railroad companies that
the true particulars of accidents, dis
turbances and all matters of public
concern that occur on their lines should
be given by their own officers, than
that distorted and highly exaggerated
accounts should appear in print, rem
dered so through the inability of re-
porters to obtain authorized statements
and the necessity of gaining informa-
ton from such sources as are avail
able. No respectable paper wants to
misrepresent the railroads in any way.
Give them the facts and the fictions
will not appear.

A POOR pREvARIcAToR.

A contemporary, which is never
engaged in congenial occupation except
when it is twisting and turning itself
inside out. or trying to nisrepresent
others. makes an attempt to reply to
the Democratic endorsement of the APP
pointment by the present administra-
ton of bona fide residents of the terri
tory to offices in the gift of the gov
ernment But instead of doing SO. with
its accustomed jugglery and dishonesty
it jumps to another proposition entirely,
and then triumphantly calls the Demo-
Gratis ''f1rst-class prevaricators.
What was done by the administration
of 1884 is not the question. The acts
of the presnt administration are those
mentioned in the Democratic resolu-
tons. Native-born Utonians have been
appointed to Federal positions for the
first time and all other appointments
here are of men who have made per-
manent homes in the territory They
are nOL pSISO4lS WIlOSS ISoioSLNC OS-
ponds on a tenure of Office or its pros
pect. They will remain here whether
they obtain public positions or not.
The Republican administration policy
has been to import men from other
parts of the country for office in Utah,
or to appoint those who had been so
imported. and no native son of Utah
received recognition. The Utah Com
mission for the first time is composed
of bona fide residents of Utah, and all
the Federal appointments under the
present administration are of men of
settled residence here whose material
interests are identified with Utah and
her people.
The prevaricators are those who af-
firm the contrary. Among them is our
acrobatic contemporary which, how
ever, is not "first-class'' even in the ART
of prevarication, for its tricks are too
transparent and the higher it vaults
the palmer to be seen is its funda-
mental folly and falsehood.

DoUBLE-DYED INFAMY.

That the DEATH of silver, if it ever
was slain in this country, was effected
by the Republican party in 1873, is a
fact undeniable by any party or paper
that has the least regard for truth. But
then there are some that never use
he truth unless it happens Ito be useful
to their purpose. And of such are
they wtho charge the Democratic party
with knocking OUT silver in 1898
The lowest class of murderers are
they who, unable ito deny the fact of
the killing in face of the evidence of
the corpus delicti, with the cowardice
of THE sinking assassin and THE cunning
of the semi-lunatic, endeavor to divert
attention from their own crime by
charging 1T to others. They thus add
to their villainy and intensity the
deep damnaJtion that is their doom.
1t is thus with those papers which
strive to saddle upon the Democratic
party the deeds of the Republicans, or
who make the former responsible for
the effects of the doings of the latter.
The downfall of silver was purely Re-
publican work, and when it had been
down and out for twenty years it could
not be knocked out by anybody.
The repeal of the purchase clause of
the Sherman act was demanded by
Democrats and Republicans alike, and
was effected by both parties in concert.
No one with honest intent finds fault
with that repeal. The Democratic par
ty is not guilty of killing silver or
knocking out" Its error has been
in not moving forward TO undo
effectually the deadly work of
the Republican party 1t is
the duty of the Democracy to resusci-
tate the prostrate body, laid out in 1873.
That will be done no doubt in good
time. as time goes with the majority
of the party, which is not in as great
haste as are we of the west.
The gall of a pape4 which finds
fault with the Democratic party for
knocking OUT a corpse twenty years
defunot. when what was done by the
Democrats was wanted and assisted
in by the Republicans, is dfstinctively
characteristic of the party which has
done all of the mischief that can be
fairly complained of.
There is no hope for silver that is
for free coinage at 16 to 1, outside of
the Democratic panty. If that has
been slow to act, which we no not de-
ny. all that can be fairly charged TO it
is delay in repairing Republican
wrong. The Republican party sharp
cred the knife, planned the secret
method, performed the stealthy work
and stabbed silver to The heart. And
now to smear with its crime-stained
fingers the face of Democracy and
proclaim the guilt of the innocent, is
dcuble-dyed hypocrisy and unpardon-
able political iniquity

GOOD RAILROAD POLICY.

1t is sad commentary upon the in
teligence3 and perspicuity of mind gen
orally accredited to railway officials,
that so many of the higher authorities
incline to measures prolific of harm to
the interests of the property they are
paid munificent salaries for guarding.
In no way is this more clearly mani
Tested than in the mantle of secrecy
they throw about accidents when oc-
curing on their respective lines.
Railroad wrecks are a matter of pub
lie concern, and the facts attendant
should be freely given by those who
have full knowledge of them. There
are today many railway officers in the
country who have taken precisely this
view. and they have issued a standing
order to the effect that in the event Of a
wreck upon their lines, employees in
possession of the details shall unre-
servedly give them to the press. Such
information need not always come
through an official as nearly every
operator on the line is good and suff1-
Gent authority. 1t would be far better
for all concerned usually that the news
should come direct from the company
rather than from persons who oft-times
have little or no hesitancy in drawing
upon highly wrought imagination in
order to fill in between the things they
really know

Mr.. Havemeyer's admission that the
Sugar trust makes a regular practice
of contributing to the respective ma
tional campaign funds, seems to be
regarded as an unlleard-of and I'M
dreamed-of act. The press and the
public hold up their hands in holy hor-
ror that such thing is possible in this
land of the free and the home of the
brave.
To US the only surprising feature of
the whole Sugar trust investigation
farce is that the sugar kings confess
sion to buying favors from both polit-
Iical parties should be considered as a
new discovery. Are we a nation of
fools that we imagine that the interest
the Sugar trust or any other monopoly
takes in politics and legislation is born
of devotion TO our institutions ?-Chi-
cago Dispatch.
To suppose that the Sugar trust or
any of the great monopolies of the
country care for anything in politics
bue the money they can make out of
lit, is to suppose that which every
thinking person knows to be false. But
bad as these monopolies are in using
money in politics to further their own
ends, they are no worse than those poll
ticians of either party who accept cam
paign contributions from them.
