DEMOCRATS, DO YOUR DUTY.

NEXT Monday the State election
occurs, in which all State, county
and township officers are to be
contested for. Let us, as Demo
Gratis, consider well our duty, and
then perform it. 1t will require
earnest, persistent work to win.
All know we can not afford to let
the extravagant wild p, p.'s get
control of Miller county, for the
next thing would be Republicanism,
debt and disgrace as county. Re
publicans and p. p.s are pulling
right together in this contest-we
all know this. Then let us stand
unitedly together, and vote and
work for every man on the Demo
cratic ticket. If we feel disposed
to Scratch, let us consider the
dishonor of such a thing; all of us
virtually agreed to abide the pri-
mary, and not to do so now, in every
Office, is dead wrong.
In conclusion, let us be honest
and faithful, and victory will be
ours, from bottom to top.

THAT staunch Democratic paper
the Boston Globe makes the follow
ing sensible predictions which we
hope will come true: The Globe
has four predictions to venture this
morning. First, the Democratic
disappointment with the Senate
tariff bill will be only momentary.
Second, the prosperity of the coun-
try will quickly rally ane mount
higher than it ever mouted during
the operative period Of any other
tariff in the history Of the republic.
Third, no general readjustment of
customs duties will be effected
again for at least ten years.
Fourth, the several glazing defects
of the new law can and will be rem
led by separate acts without any
annoyance to the general business OF
the country.

BEFORE any man claiming to be a
Democrat makes up his mind to de-
sert his party, he ought to investi-
gate the obstructing elements of
his own party and the principles of
other parties. He will certainly
sec that the principles of the Dem
ocracy are right and as a whole it
is the only party whose principles
are wholly right for good, impair
tial and prosperous government.
Then why abandon it? Why not
stick with it, vote in it, get your
neighbors and friends to assist in
the good work. This would be the
action of wisdom. In this way you
effect a change for the betray by
honoring worthy members of the
party with places of trust You
will never gain anything by joining
the populists with their wild i'm
practicable ideas.

Around the World.

The time required for traveller to
circle the earth has been greatly reduced
since the imaginary trip of Jules Verne's
Phileas Fogg, who succeeded in get
ting around the globe in so days in spite
of storms, shipwrecks, Indians and de-
tectives. The question how long it would
take now to go around the earth has re-
Gently been discussed in the Antwerp
Geographical society.
The answer given by M. E. de Keyser
was 81 days, including the loss of a day
at New York, the journey being made
eastward by way of Yokohama and San
Francisco. But in the near future this
time is likely to be cut down to 40 days
and perhaps less, through the compile
ton OF the railroad across Siberia, which,
at the present rate IF progress, 81

years.

long distances doubled, it is predicted
that in the coming century traveller

Perhaps the best specimen of wit that

in many day was that emitted like a

who has been guilty of good many
things that have disturbed the serenity
of bench and bar. Mr.. Coffey was coun-

postponed some two or three times at his
request. 1t was before Judge Outcalt.
Again Mr.. Cotfey asked for postpone
ment. The court reminded him that it
had already been postponed several times
at his request.
'Have you good grounds for wishing
another postponement?" asked the court.

"What are they?" asked the court.
"Coffey grounds, your honor"
"Coffee grounds?" repeated the judge.

Then the judge got on his dignity and
reminded the lawyer that he was trifing
with the court.
"Your honor, said Mr.. Coffey, "there
was small addition to my family last
night, and I submit, your honor, that
this is good grounds for asking for a
postponement. "

Childhood Savings of an Empress,

The Empress Frederick must have
been deliciously naughty child if all
the stories told of her juvenile days are
true. Everybody knows the "Good
Night, Brown" story, but here are a
few others not quite so familiar:
Walking one day in Windsor forest
with her daily governess, the princess,
then 3 years old, showed good deal Of
rather naughty temper. Look" said
the governess, eat that very nice little
girl over there. How good she isl How
quiet!' 81 dare say she may be, re-
torted the little princess; "but, then,
also see she has no daily governessP'
"Shall we meet every one we know in
heaven?" she asked another time. ooh,
yes, my DEAR" was the reply. "Sure-
ly," thoughtfully remarked the child,
mot DR.. A." DR.. A., it should be told,
was an extremely plain old man. When
the Prince of Wales was born, the good
news was conveyed to her small high
ness care you not pleased with your
little brother?" it was asked some time
later. "Oh, no." was the reply. 81

Temporarily Blinded by a Flash.

At the Narragapsett Electric Lighting
company's works in this city there are
two men who have been temporarily
blinded when throwing a switch. Su-
perintendent Thomas says that this
happens in every big electric lighting
station. When a switch is thrown, the
circuit is broken. When properly done,
another connection is made simultane-
ously. The intense flash lasts until an
other connection is made. One of the
men of the Narrangansett company's
works was so nearly blinded that he was
at home three days at one time. He was
not, however, as is said to have been the
case with Caulfield of Brooklyn, unable
to see anything at all. He was able to
grope about, but could see nothing dis
tinctly. Both the men are remarkably
strong specimens of manhood and could
not be called hysterical by the widest
stretch of the imagination. 1t is believed
here that the cases mentioned are of
physical inability solely.

THE GEOMETRY OF BEAUTY.
System of Principles In Formative Art
Which Existed In Ancient Greece.

w men ExlsUeu Ancient
In a recent lecture before the Scien-
tific club of the Pennsylvania state coll
lege Professor Osmond showed that all
physical beauty is associated with sound,
color and form, which, if not the bases
of it's being, are it's vehicle to u.s. 1t is
a psychological law that the mind is
pleased with simple ratios. In their most
abstract form these harmonic ratios are
pure numbers, obtained from the ele4
ments l, 2 and 3, forming the harmonic
numbers 2, 3 and 5. 1t is fact that in
sound, color and form relations gov
erned by ratios constructed from the
harmonic numbers or their simple null
mental constitution is the starting point
of the inquiry after the principle com.
mon to sound, color and form and con-
stituting in all beauty. The application
of these ratios in music has been known
from the time of Pythagoras; also in
color various harmonious combinations
have wave lengths in harmonic ratio
In obtaining beauty of form the har-
monte ratios are applied to angular mag
nitude, not to lengths or surfaces. THIS
eye refers everything to a vertical line
and a horizontal line, constituting right
angle. The right angle, 1, is harmonical-
ly divided into parts having the ratios to
itself that the notes of the octave have to
the fundamental note The lines that so
divide the quadrant are the diagonals
of harmoic rectangles, and each Of these
has curvilinear figure, the ellipse, and
three (or six inscribed triangles all
harmonic. These harmonic rectangles,
ellipses and triangles may be put to-
gether in combinations of infinite variety
and necessarily pleasing effect in deco
ration and sculpture and architecture.
Examples of these are found in "The
Parthenon, "The Venus of Milo, " "a
Portland Vase" etc. Drawings of Sec
tions of the eye show why beauty in
form depends Oh harmonic relations of
angles from the very manner in which
things are seen.
The value, financially and esthetical-
ly, of a system Of principles that will
guide those engaged i'll all the formative
arts to the sCro production of true and
pure beauty is beyond estimate. Such as

centuries of her glorious sovereignty in

A syndicate of Colorado parties,

has just secured control of the Com
mercial mine, in Bingham, located and
developed by Thomas Venard, and a
mill is to be erected at once This
property is one of the many in Bing-
ham which would give heavy returns
in gold if developed to their fullest ex-
tent and it is very evident that the
gentlemen of the Centennial state have
grasped the situation thoroughly and
propose to determine just what are the
possibilities of the mine. In order to
do this it is necessary to have plant
of their own and the necessary prelim-
mary arrangements have already been
made. 1t is understood that the work
of construction is to commence in the
immediate future.
Several days ago returns were re-
ceived from a mill run on the ore of
the property and the showings were so
satisfactory that the deal was closed
at once. The ore runs well in gold and
gives some returns OF silver. The mill
will employ the teaching process and
be of 100 tons or more capacity. The

hood of the Old Jordan anGAGalena and
