tion that still holds us plunged in the
depths of despair. One more quotation
from this surprising letter:
I'VE avoid no issue. We meet the
sudden, dangerous, and revolutionary
assault upon law and order, and upon
those to whom is confided by the con-
stitution and laws the authority to up
hold and maintain them, which our op-
ponents have made, with the same
courage that We have faced every emer-
gency since our organization as a party
more than forty years ago. Govern
ment by law must first be assured;
everything else can wait. The spirit of
lawlessness must be extinguished by
the fires of an unselfish and lofty patri-
otism.
Every attack upon the public faith
and every suggestion of the repudia-
tion of debts. public or private, must be
rebuked by all men who believe that
honesty is the best policy, or who love
their country and would preserve IN
sullied its national honor"
These are consecutive paragraphs
taken from near the close Of the Letter.
The only comment they call for IS that
the first might have been, with few
immaterial changes, uttered by John p.
Altgeld or Eugene V. Debs in opposi-
tion to government by injunction" or
the lawless invasion of a sovereign
state by the federal military, while the
last could easily have come from
Bourke Cochran, Tom Reed, or John
Sherman. Altogether the letter is
weak and may we'll prove discouraging
to republicans.

To Stop Bleeding.

Mr. Lawson TAFT has invented an
electric haemostat, an instrument
whereby the electric current is applied
for the arrest Of bleeding. The princi-
pie Of the instrument is the generation
of heat by the resistance to the current
offered by certain metals, and the coag-
ulation of all albupinous tissues by
temperatures at or above $50 degrees
Fahrenheit. A platinum wire is in
closed in the blades Of a pair Of steel
forceps. or any other requisite instru-
ment, the wire being isolated by bed
of burned pipe clay. A current Of suit
able voltage is turned on, the artery
seized and compressed, and in few
seconds its tissues are so coagulated
and its walls aggiutinated that further
passage Of blood is rendered impossi-
BILE. The necessity for a ligature is
thus removed. and a new and COM
pleteIy effective method is placed in the
hands OF the surgeon for the treat

Despite the fact that many Christian
missions have been established in
fanticide is still very common in Annoy.
Some years ago, a Mr.. Abeel made a
thorough investigation. He found that
in some places the proportion of fe-
male infants murdered annually rose
as high as One-third, while the average
was one-fourth. One of eight brothers
told him that only three girls were left
among all their children, sixteen hav-
ing been killed.
The reasons Chinese parents give
for committing these murders are va
rious. The custom is far less preva.
lent among the rich than it is with the
poorer classes, for with the latter the
girl child must be sold if the means OF
the family are not sufficient to dover
her richly enough to insure husband.

Coal CONSUMPTION,

This, he tells us, would make a pyra,

base, or nearly seventy feet above the
height of the Great Pyramid. Then lie
goes on TO calculate that if all this
coal were loaded in trucks the train
would be 1925 miles long-or as with
a nice feeling for the Franco Russian
alliance he put it-tle distance be.

this train had TO travel at the rate oi

VIII the East Secede?

The most frightful estimate of the
present condition of things in America
is contained in an article entitled "Wal
to the Knife" published in the Nine
teenth Century Magazine. The writer
seems to be haunted by the dread OF
terrible calamities in case the people OF
the United States conclude that they
are able to run their own financial af
fairs. He says:
'As the north was blind to the dan
ger Of secession, so the American peo-
pie have been blind to the steadily
growing danger that the federal gov
ernment may at no distant day fall
into the hands of the silverites, and
that the eastern states will then be
compelled to choose between utter ruin
and withdrawal from the Union"
He points out that 1T is to the ignor-
ant west the United States owes the
greenback folly. the protectionist delu-
sion and the silver craze" and while
he now believes the chances for Nc
Kinley's election are favorable, says "a
defeat Of the silverites this year SIM
ply postpones their victory for four
brief years" In closing he says:
THAT the free and unlimited coinage
Of silver means the utter ruin of the
east, goes without saying. When the
silverites gain possession of the federal
government, the east must submit with
what grace 1t can muster to complete
and hopeless ruin, or it must
withdraw from the Union and endeavor
to maintain its independence by arms" {"
In order to allay the alarming symp-
toms we hasten to assure the east that
every legitimate business in that Sec
tion Of the country will be benefited in
proportion as the west and south, where
their factories find a market, are bene-
flied. But IL there be illegitimate pur-
suits that are ruined, we do not wish to
be held responsible.
Another hint When the east is out.
voted would be bad time for 1t to take
up arms against the trained squirrel
hunters of the south and cowboys and
miners of the west.

Some eastern papers appear to think
that broad views on the coast de-
fenses and the navy" is the main is

for distance of about $500 miles and
look westward toward the United
States. Possibly there is something
else visible.

states should be made to call on it for aid
against violence, but there was no reason
why it should not call or wait on them for

What I have said is well known to law

MIDDLE-0F-THE-R0AD PLANS.
Willis and RiEhtmire Scored First
With Theirs and the Petition
Crowd VIII Fall In Line.

Topeka, Kas., Sept. n.-(Speciai.) Ihe
fact develops to-day that the Wailits anu anu
Populist convention broke into similar
scheme that was being organized all over
the state The claim is made that the two
men who came forward with the can haa
nothing to do with the other plan. but
they have simply come out and got ahead
of the other fellows.
For some time, in tact. Just after tne
Abilene convention, Populist leaders here
and in other parts of the state commenced
to get ready to bring out a Pooulist elect.
oral ticket. Hank Lindsay. Cy Corning and
this county. All the while they were as
sisted by others over the state prominent
among them being Editor Steinberger, of
the Girard World. Mr.. Steinberger was a
delegate to the Abilene convention and
fought fusion, and on reaching home has
pounded fusion in his paper and has made
the fight for the middle-of-the-road fellows
in his part of the state.
This combination brought Mr.. Watson to
Kansas. They did even more. For ten days
they have had out petitions for an electoral
ticket. Under the law, 800 petitioners can
float a ticket and have it printed. They
proposed to do much more. for their plan
was to get 10000 petitioners. The electoral
ticket thus to be brought out had been
berger and Colonel Perkins, of Cherokee,
and Wormly. of Crawford, were in the list
of electors The plan also included ways
and means to provide a state central com
mittee, and committeeman were being Sc
lected at one and the same time.
So far about 5000 names have been Sc
cured. After having passed it all over the
state it was proposed to come out with it.
Now. that the way for creating Popuhst
electoral ticket is made clear in another
direction, 1t is believed that the petition
plan may be abandoned and this class of
fellows will go in with the Willis Right
mire crowd and in this way all will get
under the one Watson banner
While the Lindsay -Steinberger element

and getting up the electoral ticket by peti-
ffon, the claim is also made that Mr.. Wat
son and Reed, in the last few days, were

public first with their scheme
In this way the programme of the
straightouts to bring forth a Populist elect
oral ticket was developed. The n,sn is
causing general comment. 80
