Practically Absorbed By the Popocrstas
Party.


The bargain Inns been closed after
shout week of dickering, and what
there is of the populist party worth
having has been delivered 20 Bryan. A
party which claimed TO be the incarna-
ton of rugged virtue and devotion 10
sne people has sold out for promised
share of the spoils of Office. Some OF
the delegates who were honest were
duped. The nomination of Watson for
tne purpose of facilitating that OF
Bryan was a disreputable trick, worthy
of the INSCRIPTIONS schemers who de-
vised IL.
To secure an Endorsement OF Sewall
would have been difficult task. The
convention would have accepted Till
man unhesitatingly, whom the popo-
Gratis should have nominated, but to
ask II 10 swallow the Lone Fisherman
who is about oil the things the popu-
lists have been denouncing, was too
much.
Therefore, in order 10 trap the mid
dle-of-the-road" men. they were al
lowed TO nominate the impossible Tom
Watson for vice president. Then in the
| teeLn OF iiRth ifs W. "ha.~~
lie would not allow Sewall to be sac
rificed, the convention proceeded TO
nominate Bryan.
The bargain struck between the popu-
list leaders and the Bryan managers Is
that Watson, the stool pigeon, Is to be
put off the ticket in the course OF time.
Watson may not like II, but he cannot
help himself. The honor bestowed upon
him is n barren one.
The populist national committee,
which Is in Bryan's hands, has been
given "plenary powers over the party
utter the convention adjourns, to do all
things that the convention would do IL
in session" That committee may not
put Sewall on the ticket, but twill taks
Watson off, and there will be only one
set OF electors.

How r.., the rarth Moves.

Everybody knows that the earth
makes one complete revolution on its
axis once in each q hours. But few
however. have an idea of the high rate
OF speed az which such an immense
ball must turn In order TO accomplish
the feat OF making one revolution IN n
day and night. A graphic idea OF
the terrific pace which the old earth
keeps up year nfter year may be had
by comparing its speed TO that of q
cannon ball fired from modern high
pressure gun. The highest velocity
ever attained by such n missile has
been estimated nt 1920 feet per Sec
ond. which Is equal 20 n mile IN 2 2-i0th
seconds. The earth, in making one
complete revolution In the short space
OF "a hours, must turn with velocity
almost exactly equal 20 that of the can
non ball la short, its rate OF speed M
the equator Is exactly 1907 feet per sec
ond. This is equal TO mile every
3 6.l0th seconds. IL miles minute.
