DR.. McComas' Recent Invention.

DR.. Henry W. McComas, who
has been the unluckly participant
in run Always without number, has
recently completed noYel affair
which he thinks will do away with
paying so many blacksmith's bills.
The doctor sarrangement consists
of a hollow swingle tree through
which wires are attached to a bolt
in either end. These bolts take
the place of hooks to which the
traces are attached and which are
shot into place by means of springs.
The wires are brought back to the
drivers seat in the conveyance over
pulleys and there made secure to a
lever or bar. AS soon as the AMI
nal attached to the conveyance
evlnces a desire to run away this
bar is pressed and releases the
horse from the shafts. By an in
genious arrangement the harness is
parted at the crupper and the horse
goes on without the vehicle. To
keep the tongue from running
into the ground another bar is
used which holds it in place.
The. doctor has made application
to the patent office for patent on
his invention.

Eight Millions of Dollars Waiting for

OF the Maine man and on the next ballot
Sewall secured 81 votes. Meantime, there
appeared TO be general movement In
favor of Mclean. who led on this ballot
with go. After the announcement of this
vote, Bland's name was withdrawn by
Governor Stone. of Missouri, who read
message from the Missourian. positively
declining the use of his name for the vice
presidency. The Bland votes on the fourth
ballot went to Sewall in large blocks. hut
Mclean captured enough to give him seem
ingiy a safe lead OF % against 261 for Sc
wall. During this roll call there had been
trouble in the Ohio delegation which was
polled and showed IA anti-McLean votes
locked up by the unit rule. There was also
big revolt against Governor Altgeid's
domination in the Illinois delegation. Ex
Congressman Fithian made a fiery protest
against the nomination of the Ohio editor.
1t was at this critical juncture that Me-
Leans telegram was read by one OF the
OHIO delegates. This telegram stated that
It was Mr.. McLeans wish that he should
not be balloted for. Delegate Sloane, how
ever, after reading the telegram, distinctly
stuffed that while the telegram expressed
McLean's wishes, il did not express the
sentiment OF Ohio, which on the fifth
ballot continued 10 cast 46 votes for Nc
Lean. The telegram, however, shattered
the Mclean forces. and Indiana. Iowa and
osSer States fiocked into the camp Of the
Maine man.
Sewall's nomination was made unanimous
before the conclusion of the roll call amid
scenes of jubilation and rejoicing in the
course of which the State standards were
Taraded about the Coliseum in the wake of
The colors of Nebraska and Maine.
1t seems probable tonight that the cam
paign headquarters will be transferred

lists. What the course Of the Populist con-
vention at ST. Louis will be is far out
side all reasonable speculation as was any
attempt to foretell the outcome of the bal
loting here in this convention but Ii would
not be surprising If Mr.. Teller met in St
Louis the same complete defeat and hu-
initiation that he encountered here.
MORE POPUL1ST THAN DEMOCRAT.
AS compared with Mr.. Bryan's repudia-
ton of Democracy, Mr.. Teller's course to-
ward his own party was the steadfastness
of Tammany wheelhorse. Mr.. Bryan
himself left the Democratic party as soon
as he saw himself in danger of losing the
congressional nomination from the regular
organization in Nebraska. For the past
two years he has not been a De, ,nocrat,
but Populist. and In his speeches he
has accepted every doctrine of the Popu-
list faith. AS between Mr.. Teller and Mr..
Bryan there can be no comparison Of rel
ative Populism.
Possibly the Populist leaders. headed b.
Taubeneck, may undertake to prevent the
Endorsement of Mr.. Bryan by the Popr-
lists. but it seems likely that all such plans
will be as ruthlessly overridden as were
the schemes of the senatorial syndicate
here. The Teller turn-down and the ;,bse-
have anything to do with the bolting Re
publcans leave the gentlemen from the
far West who walked out of the St. Louis
Republican convention in very bad shai. :
in their own localities. Those of Their, who
are candidates for reelection to the Seuate
this Congress. will of course have
free silver as far as they
go. but they will not be
alone in the running. as they hoped to be.
There will be split within the ranks of
their own party, the Republican. ard in
forming alliances with the Populists, as
they will have to do, they also lake
| chances in enlarging the competition for
| the offices they hold and are trying to re-
| tain.
| The Republican boilers have all left
town thoroughly disheartened. Senator
| Dubois has gone direct to Manitou Springs.
| Col, where he will meet Senator Teller
| and take a rest for a week. He may come
| back to st. Louis or he may proceed to
| Idaho to look after his own
| fences, which he has been neglecting.
| The bolting Republicans expect to have the
| fight against them emphasized by every
| possible method which can be employed
| by Mr.. Hanna and those having charge of
| the national campaign. AS affairs now
| taking shape there is a chance of a sound
| money gain in the Senate from States
| which a few days ago looked hopelessly
| free silver and it is now within the range
of possibilities that the Mckinley pro-
| gramme of calling a special session of
| Congress next spring to revise the tariff
| will be practicable. Circumstances are
conspiring TO make Republican victory in
| November sweeping enough to enable the
Republicans to carry out platform promises
| to the fullest extent, both as to tariff and
| currency reforms. l.. @.

A Trip to West Point.
Mr.. Editor:

MI,
i have just taken another trip through
your county. On the 9th of Dec. l
took the train at Mt. Pleasant for West
Point. We soon got to Iron City, at
this place we had to wait about two
hours for the train, went up into the
town and soon took in the place. The
village is built on the hills around
about. The churches and school house
seem to be an honor to the town and
to speak well for the people. About
two o'clock the train came in and We
pulled out for West Point. We soon
passed the Spathite Iron Mines. They
were bringing the ore right out from
under the bluff. We ran mp a valley
of fine land, and along by what has
been beautiful stream, but its beauty
has been destroyed by the mines above
in washing the ore, spent two days
and three nights in West Point l found
the people to be very hospitablc. We
had a delightful quarterly meeting.
We held five religious services all of
which seemed TO be enjoyed by the
people, Rev. J. G. Gibson the pastor is
doing we'll. He took twenty four
names on Sunday night preparatory to
organizing an Epworth Leagc.
This is fine society for the young
folks and we trust that West Point
may have one of the best in the con-
ference, brother Gibson very kindly
carried me out to, and through the
mines. The modern way they get out
the iron and wash it was quiet sight
to me. Little did our fathers think
that such machinery would ever be
seen in these hills and hollows. The
little dummies run about and gatherup
the ore in such away as to remind one
of children at play. Beneath the sur
face of an old field where men had
plowed and scrambled for years to
moke living, vast stores of wealth, /
had the pleasure on Monday morning
of addressing the school at West Point
presided over by Prof. Goodrich.
There were fifty or sixty at the opening,
Many more pupils doubtless will enter.
West Point like Lawre nceburg has a
school, a good school building. After
sharing the Inequalities of Brother
Gibson Monday at noon friend car
ried Inc to the rail road and l was soon
at home.
Yours, J. w. HeDsley.
