IT must be patent to every one who
watches the course OF events that there is
period of transition in party organi-
cation. There never was a time when
the republican party appeared stronger
than 1t does to-day, Unless the change.
which IN time is inevitable, comes before
November that party will sweep the coun
try with the largest majority a party ever
had in this country. 1t is only spasmodic
strength, however. The party is simply
reaplng the benefit Of hard times. It
represents nothing, formulates nothing,
and relies wholly on the feeling of dis.
satisfaction which exists. 1t perceived
the trend of peoples thoughts and
fastened to head the mob.
There Is but little party fealty to-day.
People are cropping for a leader. looking
for some means of escape from the diff
cultles which beset them. 1t Is a grand
opportunity for quacks aud pretenders.
They will gain temporary ascendancy.

The Milwaukee strike has come TO a
serving men who have families to sup
port find themselves ont Of employment.
1t is a trying position for these men who
IN all probability have but little means
saved up ana who are unable to do any
KIND OF work but that which they re-
lnquished and which they cannot now
recover. They Gere faithful employees,
Of proved competency and went OIt on
the strike reluctantly. 1t Is case of "a
man surrendering his individual nights
to an organization controlled by men
who use 1t for their personal ends and
with complete Indifference to the suffer-
ing they may Inhict while in pursuit OF
the object of their ambition.
II men who order a strike would only
think Of the probable consequence Of
their act to those from whom they exact
obedience, they would hesitate long, If
they are human, before assuming such a
responsibility. These men love conten-
ton because through it they earn a
livelihood. The man who earns his by
honest toll is between the devil and the
deep sea. HIS employer and his leader
assail HIM from front and rear. If he
refuses TO strike he will not be permitted
to work If he strikes he will he refused
work. The highway is open to HIN and
he is often forced to take It.
1t appears almost devilsb when it be-
came evident the strike could not win,
to hold people back from resuming pc.
sitions they had abandoned IN compliance
with an ukase with which they had but
little sympathy to begin with. Human.
ty would dictate that these loyal men
who faced starvation, because that is
what lack of employment means these
hard times, IN obedience to the dictum
OF their leaders, be permitted to return
chance Of re employment. But no, the
last chance was 20 be tried to win fame
for President Mahon, though it meant
the wolf at the door OF many labOrer's
home. The cry of monopoly was dInned
increasingly into the ears Of men anxious
to provide means for the support of their
families, SO as to dissnade them from
carrying out any such purpose. It was
a crime against humanity.
The Milwaukee Street Railway Co.
should take into consideration the excel
lent character of the men who unWisely
obeyed the behests of their leaders. Their
good character was shown during the
strike as we'll as while in the service of
the company. The new employees who
helped the company during the short
period OF itu trouble do not deserve the
same consideration those do who have
given it years of good service. 1t would
not be right To discharge these new men
who are competent, but the company can
interest itself in securing them positions
elsewhere and thus opening positions for
old and tried men. To re-instate them
would be To earn Their gratitude and IN
sure their loyalty. They would be made
TO perceive In what way their real inter
ests lie. To shut them out would be to
strengthen their devotion to the walking
delegate. The company can do a mag
unanimous thing and profit greatly by II.

THE HABIT OF NAIL-BiTING,
It Is a Mark Of Degeneration of the Nerv-
 Ous System,

It Is Mark or Degeneration of the Nerv-
 ous System.
 There has just been issued from the Paris pressa brochure which is creating large amount of interest in French medical circles. both on account of its originality and the experimental re suits which it embodies It is from the pen of Dr. Edgar Berillon, so well known in the surgical world by reason Of his prominent connection with the dead Charcot in the latter's hypnotic experiments, and at present Secretarie General de la Societe d dHypnologie ct de Psychologist of Paris and medical in- spector of the state lunatic asylums. The work is 8 scientific treatise on ony cophagie, or fingernail biting, and con- tains the results of series of observa- tions in the public and private schools of France, and extending through a period of more than seven years. At the congress of the French Associat ation for the Advancement of Sciences. held at Nancy in 1886, Berillon first an- nounced his observations on the habit of nail-biting, and since that time has been in almost continuous experiment.
 In his thoroughly scientific treatment of what the world has never before con- sidered worthy of prolonged or special study Berillon has arrived at results really remarkable. His experiments lead him to pronounce the habit far more widespread and pernicious than others promptly treated, and force him to conclude that, if not disease itself, it is an unfaillng mark of inclpient de generation of the nervous system, which, unrecognized, may be productive of the most evil results

Ready to Defy the Cyclone.

Through the section of the country
where tornadoes are most frequent and
destructive the "cyclone cellar" as the
underground refuge is called, is not IN
usual, but it is generally simply a Gov
cred hole in the earth some distance from
the residence. John Winstone, OF Quin.
daro, Kan, has, however, improved on
this system, and now is able to laugh at
the bowling tornado and be comfortable
while he laughs.
He has dug a deep cellar under his
house, and arranged it so that it is posi-
BILE to exist with comfort there for a con-
siderable time without going to the upper
floors of the building. Here he and his
family retire whenever a wind storm of
any violence is at hand. But Winston,
not satisfied with this, has run a shaft
from his cellar into an apartment ten
feet square and thirty feet underground.
1t has jets in it and is water. tight. In it
Winston cannot even heal a storm.
This subterranean abode is the envy
and admiration of the %neighbors, but
'every rose has its thorns." In the
neighborhood lives an old farmer who is
somewhat of a f~atalist. He passed by
one day while the cellar was being dug,
"Well, now, what ye think ye're
doing ?"
Building a cyclone cellar"
Eye jest might as we'll stop wastin'
yer muscle, fer if ye're born to get killed
by n of them DANCED cyclones, it'll get
ye, if ye're fifty feet under ground"
The owner of the cellar never quite
recovered his faith after this bit of fatal
ism atlanta Constitution.

Hobart's Blind Horse Could Work.

Some years ago, when Senator Bradley
started the five cent stage line that ran
the length of the Park, the route became
popular at once. and every available nag
was put in service to accommodate the
travel. One day a man came along with
a large blind horse, which he wanted to
sell. 1t was truly a fine animal, but
being blind its value had deprecated.
"How much ?" asked the Senator.
Gone hundred dollars" replied the
dealer.
"No," said Mr.. Bradley. "F,fty dol
lars is the outside price of a blind horse,
no matter how many good points he may
possess"
DO you know" the horse dealer
asked, "that only a short time ago that
horse was n of a high-priced team
belonging to Senator Hobart"
Mr.. Bradley was firm in his offer, and
$50 was all that he would give for
Hobart's c~ast-off.
So the blind nag was bought and went
into the stage business. at the close of
his first days work the driver reported
that he did all the pulling; in fact, the
horse dragged his mate along, and was a
perfect steam engine. Mr.. Bradley tried
him to his buggy, and the familiar snort
and long strides of the big horse will be
remembered for many a day. He was
used to the buggy for years, and literally
died in the harness, showing wonderful
grit to the very last.
in the next Presidential race," Mr..
Bradley predicted, "the original owner
of the blind horse will finish at the post
second only to his mate, McKinley."-
