MAY RACE ANOTHER YEAR.
Zimmerman booked For the Great Il
cycle isaees In italy.


Zimmerman booked For the Great 81
cycle Races In italy.
FLORENCE. Oct Especial Cable
gram to tho Associated Press. l--zlm-
norman. the Am erican eyelist, has sig
nified his intention of deYoting another
season to bicycle racing in Europe and
that he will leave New York early in
the spring of 1895 and proceed direct to
Florence.
The cycling Italians are somewhat
5ubilant over the projpectof the worlds
champion making Florence his head
quarters, the same as Paris constituted
the European home" of the thinner
man retinue this year, and they have
begun already to make dates. The rae
ing circuit in Italy comprises besides
Florence, Rome, Naples, Turin, Milan,
Venice, Genoa and a few smaller cities.
Zimmerman has not written to con-
firm the statements concerning his plans
for the next year, but it is known that
he has been adverse to another year on
the track. unless he could get back to
racing shape.
Italy, however, can bring a cyclist out
earlier in the spring than perhaps than
any other country on account OF the
climate as it will be remembered that
Zimmerman and Wheeler, after grind
ing away seven weeks in the climate of
Paris last spring, went to Florence and
became speedy in less than 10 days.
They left the rain and cold that hung
over Paris and went among the Italians
who were riding the heats of mile races
in 2:12 ami 2:15.
If Zimmerman could have been at
Rome last Sunday and witnessed the
victory of Foassier with phenomenally
high gear machine he might be induced
TO yield a point or two in his ideas con-
corning the relative speed to beobtained
from high and low gear. Zimmerman
is a great stickler for low gears and he
declares that 68 inches is high enough
for anybody. Foussiers' bicycle, on
which he won the recent 30 kilometer
CT miles, race was geared to 1l2. There
was no new attachment, such as may be
seen on file in the list of curious and
freaks connected with the history of
cycling, but the affair was no more or
less than high multiplication necessi-
tating the expenditure of appropriately
greater amount of power as 1t9 is
greater than 66, GO or TO- the gears gem
orally in use. In each lap of the track
at Buffalo-33 meters Foussiers' com
petitors were making over 81 revolu-
tions of the pedals while he was making
81.
Starbuck, the Iowan, was also a
starter in this race, but he had the mis-
fortune to 90 down in a heap with half
a dozen others in the second lap.

ONE cant help admiring the re-
volt which the Populists show
against the evils besetting the pol
tiles of the day; but they ought to
see that the Democratic party af-
fords the most practical and avail
able opportunities for the reflection
of the peoples will in legislation. If
the Populists ever get to be a real
party, with prospects of succeeding,
the demagogues of both the regular
parties would jump in and swamp
it. Some of them, indeed, don t
want to wait.

ONE feature of the candidacy Of
Gov. Hill, it is well to admit before
the election, is not relished out west
and that rests in the fact that in
the Senate he was bitterly opposed
to the income tax legislation, which
he denounced as savoring of com
munism. This, we remember, is
what the eastern Republicans said
OF the peoples warfare against high
protective tariff four years ago.
And yet, as we have before said.
the Mckinley tariff was nothing
more or less than an income tax
levied on the resources of the West.
The income law of thirty years ago
laid a tax on the net incomes of 81 :.
900 and over, thus exempting all
except the prosperous classes; but
Mckinley's tyranny was wreaked
upon earnings great and small,
bleeding the poor man for what he
eat, and wore and slept on and shell
tered himself with, the tools he
worked with, and, fguratively, the
very nails in his coffin. Commun-
ism, i we understand it, means
taking from the rich and giving te
the Door. The income tax doac nat

the senate had passed the tariff bill with
amendments, on which it asked confer

side. The bill introduced by Mr.. Cooper of
Tennessee, permitting states and terrific
ries to tax greenbacks and treasury notes
the same as gold and silver are taxed, was
taken up and Mr. Hall of Missouri made
long speech in favor of the bill. Mr.. Powers
Of Vermont asserted that there was no rea-

pointed hours of study and recitation,
or on the weekly or customary days of
recreation, is beyond criticism. A
friendly contest at proper times be-
tween "teams " of neighboring schools
is rational, but when it comes to raising
money for the maintenance of "nine"
and permitting the young men to go
around the country, during term time,
the schoomaster is in some sort untrue
to the trust he accepts when these
youthful spirits pass the portals of his
school, for they enter there to study,
not to become wandering knights of
the bat and ball. Habits of rowdyism, if
not worse ones, are formed, or are likely
to be formed, on these tours and in
these tournaments on the diamond. If
these diversions and these expeditions
have become necessary or asettled
feature in the " curriculum of Yer
mont schools of high or low degree, a
"chair" in " athletics " should be es-
tablished and the playing and journey
ing conducted under the watchful eye
of its professor.
But this sort of thing is not true
athletics. Baseball or football in its
modern development and practice, is
not recognized by competent authorities
as producing normal physical develop
ment, such a strengthening of the vital
and physical powers as would, for ex-
ample, assist TO commend man to
company proposing to take risk on
his life. This sort of athletic develop
ment counts against this sort of an
athlete. To a certain rational limit,
modern ball playing may be practiced
and defended-strongly commended;
beyond that limit it has physically little
that can be said in its defense, and
morally nothing that can distinguish it
from horse-racing and kindred sports.
In this last estate a few Vermont
schools have to some extent been toler-
ating ball playing under the specious
guise of athletics" The frugal peo-
pie of the state presumably desire to
send their children to schools which
maintain proper relation between the
paramount business of studying and a
rational kind and amount of amusement
and physical recreation, and very likely
the time will come when parents in
choosing school for their children will
give to this matter of athletics and the
part it plays in school administration a
more discriminating attention than it
has hitherto received.

Wouldn't This Have Been Betteri

We don't think that the question
which we will put here in all its harsh
ness contains any element of overstate-
ment. Debs undertook, 80 he has said,
TO make the Pullman company begin
work again at certain wage outlay, af-
ter business had become 30 bad that
the company desired not to work at all.
Debs wanted to force Mr.. Pullman, in
one way or another, to pay out money
which he owned and desired to keep.
Wouldn't it have been better for gem
eral prosperity, and vastly more simple
in method, if instead of outraging pub
lie travel Debs had proceeded directly
to Mr.. Pullman's bank and violently
taken the money which he was after
out of thatp Does this sound ugly2
We think it does, but it's ugliness pre-
cisely suits the nature and purpose of
the Debs strike.-Ne,O York Sun.

The Debs Rebellion.

The existing disturbance in this
country is condition of rebellious war
launched upon the people by the man
date of an irresponsible person, the
official head of one of many labor or
CARNATIONS. President Debs' recent or
der to the men of the railway union is
declaration of war and brigandage
against the whole United States.
Violence and riot, destruction of life
and property, widespread ruin and suf-
fering, must follow upon the act of
Debs as surely as an explosion and
murderous destruction follow the ap-
plication of the match to magazine of
powder. The dupes who obey his will
rush madly into "the imminent deadly
breach " and bare their bosoms to the
deadly storm their riotous acts invite,
but the chief offender, reposing in
clustered security, by incendiary words
of encouragement incites his misguided
followers to fresh trespasses upon the
laws and by new edicts widens the fate
full circle of devastation. He and his
compeers are rebels. They are the
chief offenders, and any act depressing
disorder, any measure of retributive JUS
tice that leaves him and them unpun-
ished by the severest legal penalties,
will fall far short of dealing fairly and
effectively with the actors in this wild
riot of all the elements of anarchy.
During the week, events have ripened
rapidly. The area of disorder, having
its storm center at Chicago, has en-
braced the whole country, except the
extreme East and the South. The mis-
chief born of idleness, and the malice
engendered by the appeal to brute
force, soon took on violence, and vio-
lence eliminated on Friday in the burn
ing of hundreds of freight cars and
their contents at Chicago, and in the
blocking OF traffic on all the lines Of
railway centering in Chicago. The
war instantly suspended traffic and
communication between the states and
interrupted the passage of the mails
Then it became the duty of the general
government to interfere, and United
States troops appeared at the scene OF
disturbance. On Saturday afternoon
the first fatal collision between the
militia and the rioters occurred. A
detachment of Illinois militia, defending
railway property on the Grand Trunk
as last resort fred upon the mob
