POLITICAL SNAP SHOTS.

A HERALD reporter interviewed Hon.
John McGonigle at the Hollenbeck hotel
last evening, and to an enquiry as to
whether he was a candidate for congress
before the Democratic convention he
said:
Il am not particularly a candidate,
but have been imporruned by letters
throughout the district asking me If 1
would accept the nomination of the
Democratic congressional convention
and have, upon mature reflection, con-
cluded to give the matter some consider
alton. recognize the fact that the
Democratic candidates this year would
be in a measure leading forlorn hope,
but being uncompromlsedly opposed to
fusion with any party, ii no other
square and respectable Democrat yearns
for the nomination l may conclude to
make the race"

his letter to the police commission, and

The increase Of the strength Of wine
by keeping depends upon whether it is
kept in cask G. bottle. If stored in cask,
there is constant increase Of alcohol.
The ancients knew that wine improved
# kept in leathern bottles, and the same
result is obtained BY keeping it in wood
en- vessels, for both leather and wood
are more easily penetrated by water than
by alcohol Evaporation ensues from
both, but more freely from water, ami
the wine consequently becomes richer
in alcohol. On the other hand, the opin-
ion that Wine has grown old in bottles
and therefore become stronger is thor
oughly false. Evaporation is very much
hindered by the cork, even when this il
not covered with rosin and sealing wax.
The simple explanation Of our finding
old bottled wine rich III alcohol is that
only the stronger wines can be presorv'
ed and the weaker ones cannot resist
the effects of time. At the same time,
although all wine must eventually be
spoiled and weakened by keeping it in
bottles, yet some kinds acquire, as a
first consequence of that cause which
afterward destroys them, and which is
neither more nor less than the chemical
alteration in their constituents, proper
ties which render them more agreeable
both to smell and taste. Brooklyn Ea-

IT'S A Big THING.
That Concerted Strike Of the
Coal Miners.
But It's Not as Big to the People of Los
Angeles as Some Other Things
Nearer Home.

The world Is Just now witnessing in the
United States one Of those appalling specta-
Giles of recent times which wise men are con-
templatins and SHAKING theil heads In uneasy
contemplation OF what 1t means and where IL
will end. Thousands of Coal miners all over
the country have struck for higher wages, and
their demands having been denied they are
now militant IN spirit and threatening In
temper. As Henry George points out, this Ia an
perfect q state OF civil war as though there
were daily battles going ON In which canmon
and rides were used to help ON the destruction.
While there 10 q kind of choked and smothered
peace on the part of the contestants, destruo-
ton is nevertheless rampant, property Is 20
ing to pieces; labor, WIFI CHI sh ould be yielding,
is paralyzed; capital is wasting; all the incl
dents of active war, except actual bloodshed,
are present. Amy one can see that from sta to
OF passive war to a state OF active war needs but
q fare of the torch: the mine is sapped and
ready; 1t needs but the match; then the explo-
sion.
However serious that condition may be to the
nation, there are other matters quite as serious
to the people OF Los Angeles. The most con-
siderable of these is that auction sale now 20,
ing ON at Germans jewelry store, at which
Auctioneer Dawson is sweeping everything be-
fore him in his efforts to unload the balance of
that han dsome jewelrY stock and reach out for
a few dimes aud two-bit pieces which the
crowd has in pocket Crowds press about the
doors and the stock Is rapidly moving. 1t can
not last much longer, and II you went an arti-

The situation at Cripple Creek, Colo
RADIO, is alarming. The strikers there
have actually inauguratod a state of
war, have entertainments and fortresses
and are com petely armed and drilled
for any emergency that may arise. This
strike, unlike that in the Pennsy lvanis
coal mines, is made byAmerican miners,
and not by Huns and Poles. 1t is char
acterzed by a discipline and leader
ship which shows military skill at its
head and determination to leave the
result to the arbitrament OF battle. In
the meantime Governor Waite, whose
sympathies are evidently on the side of
the strikers, fails to evincs the prompti-
tude and determination he showed in
Denver, when he at once called out
the military arm to aid him in forcbly
installing his new police commissioners
He is leaving tho burthen of opposing
this formidable uprising to the civil au-
thorities, and the strikers are therefore
enabled TO gain Roadway and make their
position one of formidable strength. OF
course there can be but one outcome to
this insurrectonary state OF affairs, but
it will not end, from present appear
ances, until bloody collision has taken
place.

goes directly to the gravamen OF the
offense for which her daughter suffers.
1t is to the effect that the dead husband
was habitually addicted to arsenic eat
ing. One doctor says he gave him az
high as $50 grains of the poison at one
time. No wonder the autopsy OF the de-
ceased developed the fact that his inter
nal organs were saturated with the
deadly drug. In this country such new
evidence would open the doors OF Mrs.
May bricks cell in q jiffy. Whilst our
judicial and executive system lie too lax
in favor OF persons charged with crime,
the English system goes to the other ex-
treme. They are both bad, but ii We
were forced to choose between the two.
we should certainly prefer that system
which protects innocence rather than
the one which visits crime with
stubborn severity which fails to discrim-
mate in cases of doubtful guilt. To para
phrase Portals splendid opening line on
the attribute of mercy. we would favor
that system where "the quality OF JUS
tice is not strained" Perhaps the hard
ness of Queen Victoria's character was
never more strikingly exemplitied than
in her stubborn refusal to interpose in
behalf of this poor woman whom many
believe to be martyr to the hate OF her
uxor relatives.

WASHINGTON and British Columbia
have just been visited by freshets that
have interrupted all overland railroad
travel on the Northern Pacific railway.
Every stream has overlooked its banks
and carried away bridges and cut up the
roads in all directions. The deficit in
moisture in this region seems to have
been made up by an unusual surplus in
the territory north of California As far
as agriculturists are concerned, the too
much OF the north has worked greater
injury than the too-little has accom-
plished hereaway. Southern California
is kept on top by it's splendid system OF
irrigation, and the experience of this
year of shortness of rain will stimulate
our people to greatly increase and ex-
tend our independent sources of water
supply.

HE sugar investigation in the senate
has SO far developed nothing of absolute
value in showing that any OF the con-
script fathers have entered into corrupt
conspiracy with the trust to make cor
ner on sugar through the manipulation
OF the tariff bill. There is some smoke,
but no fire as yet apparent. Some Of
the witnesses have shown that senators
had interviews with Havemeyer and
other magnates of the syndicate OF
sweets, but go far they have not been
connected directly with any crooked
transactions. OF course there is more or
less suspicion excited when senators, en-
gagged in revising Legislation which can
be made of great pecuniary benefit to
certain interests, If they are indiscreet
enough to be found hobnobbing with
the representatives of these int rests at
their houses. Bnt this looseness
OF conduct is generally explainable on
other than corrupt hypothesis. They
are apt to find their skirts somewhat
smirched in public estimation, even if
their garments eome out of the investi-

deed but did not recognize him. After the

Uniforms to Scare the Enemy.

According to the report prepared by
the war department, red uniforms were
first adapted by the Emperor Valerius
Maximus in order that the Roman sol.
diors might not be frightened by the
sight of their own Slood. To this day
the children OF England are told that
this is the reason why French troops
wear red trousers, and French children
are taught the same notion respecting
the red coats Of the British. The legion
aries of ancient Rome wore the skins of
bears on the 4eld of battle to make them
look fierce. For the same reason they
put figures of frightful beasts on their
shields and helmets. From this odd Gus
tom springs modern crests and armoriai
bearings. The idea of soaring the enemy
by such devices has been perpetuated up
to quite recent times. Tall bearslzin
hats were originally adopted to make
them look taller by the French cuiras-
siers, each of whom carried handful
Of grenades for scattering among the
