PLATFORM R~EPUDIATED.

New York, July 16.-The executive
committee of the state democracy met
last night and r%epudlated the Chicago
platform. 1t also advocated the put
ting of a third candidate in the field.
The resolutions We're adopted only
after a prolonged debate. They re
pudiate and condemn the revolutionary
and un-democratic convention in Chi
cago."
The free silver plank is particularly
condemned in proposing to substitute
FOR the present gold standard IAN I'M
stable and deprecated standard repudi-
ated by every civilized and prosperous
nation, and which would put us on a
par with China, Mexico and other
countries where labor is VIGOROUSLY
underpaid."
The failure of the Chicago conven-
| ton to endorse the present democratic
administration is roundly condemned.
In view of the populistic and I'M
democratic character of the platform
adopted at the Chicago convention
the resolutions declare that no demo-
crat owes adherence to it. "or is called
upon to support the candidates who
have consented to stand upon it."
In CONCLUSION the resolutions endorse
the action of the New York delegates
who withdrew from the convention.
Another resolution was adopted in
structing the chairman to appoint a
committee of sever to cooperate with
other organizations in putting into the
field Independent democratic candi-
dates for president and vice president.
The resolutions were vigorously OPP
posed by A.. .>iely and Michael Fennel-
ly. Mr.. Fennelly said that the organi-
cations might denounce as they would.

Mr.. Fennelly had about six followers
in the committee, and these, after the
meeting, said they would consider the
ACCESSIBILITY of withdrawing from the

CANADIAN VIEW OF DEMOCRATS.

Toronto, Ont, July 16.-The World
(conservative), editorially says:
From one point of view we are
somewhat pleased with the democrats
of the United States. That party con
tains the scum of the nation, and the
established the truth that underlies the
celebrated American epigram which
points out that while every democrat
may not be a horse thief. every horse
chief is a democrat. We are somewhat
pleased, we say, at the recent demon
stration of this horse thief and repudi-
alton parry This time their dishon-
esty and thievlsh intentions are direct
ed against the United States.
Great Britain need no longer lose
sleep over the threats of Americans.
They carry within themselves the germ
of self-destruction. The republic is
honeycombed with pestilential mic
robes. The nation That is in cold blood
debating whether it shall pay it's just
obligations is pretty far advanced in
decline. While the demand of the sill
verites may be turned aside this time
we may rest assured that the horse
thief party will keep at it until they
have consummated the villainy they
have in view. Let us no longer LOSE
any sleep Yer the threats of the United
States. They are themselves on the
verge of disruption.
within 20 years we may see the oc.
topus split up into two or ever three re.
%pnblics, and then there will be so much
fighting between themselves that they
will have no desire to twist the lions

The New Photography.

San Francisco newspapers TINS
week have press dispatches and Illus
trated articles descriptive of the new
photography which pictures the
bones through flesh and clothes, and
practically penetrates all things usu-
ally deemed Opaque. According to
Prof. Rontgen, German scientist
and the alleged discoverer of this
new art, coins ip closed purses, iron
discs in heavy closed wooden boxes,
skeletons of living human beings en-
yeloped in customary clothes, ETC.,
are all distinctly and correctly por-
trayed, the things inside and not the
outer coverings being depicted. Prof..
Rontgen says he has accomplished
this by "radient heat, and frop his
description of the process evidently
believes he is trending upon posi-
BILE discovery of the famous fourth
dimension, the dream of So many
Prof. Rontgen, at Wurzburg, uses a
Crookes tube and an INDUCTION coil
in some ways his published state
ments do not differ materially from
accounts OF the success achieved on
similar lines by Fernando Sanford,
at Leland Stanford Jr. University at
Pale Alto, California. Prof. San
ford secured Photographic represen-
tation of sundry objects, though
OPAQUE substances interviewed be
tween the camera and the object
photographed He attributed the
phenomenon to form OF electric
energy known as the "Hertzian
wave" SO named from H. Hertz of
Bonn University, the original pro.
Queer of this form of sympathetic
vibration. Prof. Rontgen uses no
Jens, as the result of his experiments
announces that the new light
which he utilities in such extraordi-
nary photography does not travel in
waves but in straight lines, and can
not be refracted. At Vienna and
Buda- Pesth scientific investigation
is reported to have concurred in the
success of Prof Routgens expert
ments and the correctness of his
CONCLUSIONS.
From the standpoint of the practi-
cal miner, this scientific discovery
is of double value, for it is gravely
alleged that this new light or IRA
diant heat" is different in some i'm
portant respects from ordinary light.
It is stated that such material as
earth, stone or copper is by this new
light as transparent as glass to ordi-
nary light, and that the quality of
being opaque which has through the
ages been so annoying and expensive
to the miner will now disappear;
that by reason of Prof. Routgen's
discovery the prospector or miner
can see into the dark breast of the
drift or look below the surface with
as much ease as though dyke rock,
hinging wall, footwall, fault, dip,
slip or other subterranean question
OF procedure were plate glass, and
can see the gold many feet or beyond
ordinary mortal sight, which can
rarely see much farther than the
point of the pick
In matters of faith or matters of
fact it is so much easier to believe
than to doubt or deny that in tie
case of this new light debate can
be deferred pending further investi-
cation. Still it is probable that any
present arrangement looking to the
development of our mines will not be
seriously modified or affected by this
latest and greatest discovery.
