The Message of the People.

Hist ye, Bryan! Did You hear it? How it
rolled from sea to sea
Did you hear the thunderous answer of
people great and free?
Did you hear the word they We spoken-have
you felt that shoulder-blow
To your vile Reputation, have you heard
their mighty No?
Hist ye, Tillman! Have you noticed how
the people of this land
Have arisen in their honor to strike down
your pirate hand
Have you seen upon their banner there is
blazoned, fair to see,
Their renewal of allegiance unto Truth and
Purity?
Hist ye, Altgeld. Can you read it? Can you
read the message through?
lis message that the people in their might
intend for you
How they'll tolerate no Anarch in this land
that they have won;
How they'll strange every effort quite as
soon as it's begun!
Have you heard it, o misguided? If you
have not, it were we'll
mat you learned from those who've done so
what the people have to tell:
He'ee country, and ,ee' ce made it, and
are'fe going to keep 1t clean,
And we'N throttle any Serpent acho acould
make it base and mean!

An Item For Sailors.

Here is an important statement-if
true-for those interested in sailing. An
English newspaper says that while it is
hard to believe that the speed of a sailing
vessel can be increased by boring holes in
her sails, an Italian sea- captain neverthe-
less claims to have conducted experiments
which go a long way towards proving it,
His theory is that the force of the wind
cannot fairly take effect on an inflated
sail, because of the cushion of immov-
able all which fills up the hollow. To
prevent the formation of this cushion.
the captain bored number of holes in
the sail, These holes let through the air
which would otherwise have been retained
in the hollow of the sail, and allowed the
wind to exercise it's whole power by strik-
ing fairly against the sail itself Several
trials of this device have been made and
was found that in a light wind a boat with
ordinary sails made four knots, while
with the perforated sails she covered five
and quarter knots. In fresh breeze
she made seven knots with the ordinary
and eight and three quarter knots with
the perforated sails; and in strong wind
she made eight knots with the old and ten
knots with the new sails. This gain
from twenty to twenty-five per CENTS
Of SO much Importance that the expert
ments will be repeated on larger scale.

An intimate friend of Kipling's, with
whom he was for some time associated in
editing paper in India, recently remark
ed: ''While possessing marvellous
faculty for assimilating local color with
out apparent effort, Kipling neglected no
chance and spared on labor in acquiring
experience that might serve a literary
purpose One who has been permitted
to read in advance Kipling's new serial
story, captain Courageous, which be-
gins publication in the current number of
McClure's Magazine, finds this habit of
Kipling' especially manifest in the story.
Dealing with a phase of life far apart
from the ordinary-that of the Gloucester
fishermen on the Grand Banks-the story
reads as if some actual fisherman, sud
denly lifted out of his lifelong condi-
ton and endowed with the gift of
literary perspective and expression, was
looking back on it and writing out his
own experience. The brevity, the di-
rectness, the perfect ease and naturalness
with which the daily round of labor and
adventure is set forth, show that Kipling
must himself have been through it all,
and, by his marvellous faculty for as

POLITICAL POINTS. Present indica-
tons point to Senate composed of 40
Republicans, 81 Democrats, four anti
silver Democrats, and II ee-silyer Re-
publicans and Populists. On currency
questions the vote of the sound money
Democrats combined with that of the
Republicans will give majority; and on
tariff questions there are likely to be
enough votes cast by Senators ciassed as
silver Republicans to give the kepubli-
cans maJorty..... 1t is a significant fact
that the only State in which frauds have
been seriously charged is the State of Ten
nessee, where the election machinery is
controlled entirely by Democrats who
sympathized with the Chicago platform
Their motive, however, was not to help
Bryan SO much as to prevent exposure of
the corrupt and fraudulent practices of
the Democratic State administration
which would have surely followed the
possession.of the government by another
party...... Returns from all of the 119
counties of Kentucky have been received
at the office of the Secretary of State.
On the National ticket they show a total
vote of 40, 900. Mckinley's vote is 2lS.-
055, Bryan 217, 79e; McKinley's plurality
257..... With 10 counties to hear from the
total vote of California shows plurality
for the Mckinley and Hobart electors of
over 2, 600 votes. This places the vote of
San Francisco where it was fixed by the
unofficial count, a plurality for the Repub-
llcan ticket of 3OS. The counties to be
heard from will, it is thought, increase the
Mckinley majority..... The plurality for
Bryan in Kansas is II, 9S3. The plurality
for Leedy, Populist, for governor is 1902.
1t is estimated that 1000 Republicans
voted for Bryan on the free silver issue. -.
The Republicans have surrendered South
Dakota to the Bryan electors by about 400
majority, but do not as yet give up the
State officers. .... Thos. Z. Watson letter
accepting the Vice Presidential nomina-
ton of the Peoples Party, has been given
to the public. 1t was written October IA,
to Senator Butler, chairman of the ratifi-
cation committee and manager of the
Populist campaign, and was suppressed
by Senator Butler during the campaign.
