ARE BIRDS GUIDED BY STARS?
An Attempt to Solve the Great Mystery
of Bird Migration.

OF Bird Migration.
In an article on Birds Of Passage"
the Chautauquan says If one desires
an explanation for the great mystery
OF bird migration, there being nothing
else that will answer, he will have to
accept the theory Of hereditary knowl-
edge, knowledge OF the unfailing
stars. The Great Bear and Orion ap-
peared at the same time in our region.
even when the divisions of land and
water were very different than they ara
today, That the stars are the guides
OF birds agrees with the fact that they
fly at remarkable heights, often above
the clouds, and that wanderers lose
their way when they stray into clouds
and mlsts. On starlight nights strag-
Cling birds are seldom noticed. When
the sky Is overcast, when the night ia
dark, but especially when q fine rain ia
railing, multitudes Of travelling birds
are heard. They will call often, doubt
less for the purpose of keeping near
each other; and often great numbers Of
them bound against the windows of
lighthouses. Thus Gatke has observed
that on Oct. %. 1882 from 10 o'clock at
night till the next morning golden
crested wrens bumped like snowflakes
against the lighthouse Of Heligoland.
and that on the following day golden
crested wrens sat on every square foot
Of Hellgoland. Toward the end of the
summer, along into the fall, It was not
a rare occurrence on dark nights to
see, through the light of street lamps,
birds flying over inland cities. The ex-
perienced observer recognizes by its call
the curlew and the strand-snipe, sea-
swallow and seagull occasionally hears
even the flap of their wings. But no
bird Is visible in the darkness. On dark
nights no stars appear; then 1t Is that
the straying Bird loses his way The
stars are the most plausible guides to
birds in their migrations. But only the
future can tell us whether they really
serve in that capacity.

THE silver of the World was be-
ing coined by the United States be-
fore the demonstration act of 1878.
Values of all commodities and pro-
ducts were much higher then than
now, and there is no argument that
will stand which shows that by re-
turning to the old coinage laws that
the other conditions will not exist.
Then why is it that some people
are only in favor of the coinage of
the American product?
The time for making experiments
on the silver question is past, and
the desire of the people is to return
to system of finance that was
kmoton to be good thing for the
country. The American product
coinage howlers are only talking to
create any kind of dissention they
can in free coinage ranks. The
play is to old to attract many fol-
lowers.

The Republican platform in one
resolution proclaims for high pro-
tectlve tariff, and in another favors
reciprocity. If we understand reci-
procity rightly it means that Amer
lea takes what she needs from other
nations without duty and gives
those nations what they want of our
products without duty. How they
can have a protective tariff and
work the reciprocity plan too is a
little beyond US.

For original damn cussedness of
expression the San Francisco Post
leads all the gold bug sheets of Cal
ifornia. It attempts to make it ap-
pear that the Democratic platform
is one of reputation and anarchistic
tendencies, and berates the nomi-
nees because they endorse the prin-
ciples set forth in the platform. The
duty of the Post, of course, is to
work for its masters, no matter what
befalls the country, and this it is
doing to the very best of its ability.
But as a Democratic paper it should
not show its teeth and ears too
plainly because the Populists pro-
posed to endorse the Democratic
nominees, thereby strengthening
the best American ticket that has
been placed before the people for
years. It is little hard for gold
bugs to take the medicine they have
been choking down the people for
years, but their grimaces will have
no effect on the free coinage ply
stefan who will soon administer the
dose.

THE Reno Gazette is anxious to
know who would compose Bryan's
cabinet, if he is elected President.
1t wants no anarchists to handle
the reins. Well, no, that would
hardly be proper; but how would
such Americans as Teller, Butler,
Allen, Morgan, Altgeld, Pennoyer,
Cannon. Pettigrew, Stewart, and a
few others Of their stripe do? 1t
would not take such gang as that
long to begin firing some more tea
overheard, and strengthening affairs
out in this country so that honest
men could make living.

AS WE go to press no nominations
have been made by the Populists
at st. Louis, but the indications are
that Bryan and Sewall will be en-
dorsed or nominated. The Popu-
lists who oppose this plan say they
do 50 because by such course the
party would lose its identity. But
it would be hard to make the peo-
pie believe such a story. They
would say the endorsement was
not made because the Republicans
paid them not to make it, and that
would most completely obliterate
the Populist party. Our opinion
is that Bryan and Sewall will be
elected irrespective of what the
Populists do.

THE silver question is easy to
comprehend when defined as it was
the other day by an employer to his
employees in the following simple
and practical fashion,
"My own and your welfare de-
ponds upon the credit | can get at
the banks. / can not get my pay
for this yet for months. To pay you
wages | must borrow money. The
banks are full of money belonging
to other people, but the officers will
not lend on any security unless they
are sure that they will receive back
from me money as good as they lend
me to pay you. III the banks are
suspicious they will refuse me mon-
ey, and must discharge you. All
this talk about free silver makes
those who lend me money to pay
you suspicious. Do you under
stand?"-Gold Bug Er.
The above is another fine argu-
ment of the gold bugs. The writer
is evidently n manufacturer, and
admits that he can't sell his goods
for cash because the banks have all
the money, and he therefore has to
borrow from them, to pay his hands,
until he can get pay for his manu-
featured articles. What a state of
affairs is this! 1t is what silver
advocates have been contending
against for years. The bankers,
brokers, spectators, and non-pro-
ducers have the money of the coun-
try boarded, and the producer and
laborer must await their pleasure
for work and pay. With free coin
age of silver, and by it plenty of
money to carry on business, de-
mand for manufactured articles
that would meet the supply, there
would be no such thing as the pro-
ducer and manufacturer having to
borrow to pay wages, and pay an
exorbitant rate of interest to the
bankers for the use of the money.
This system is what has been the
ruination of the country. Those
who preach the gold standard doc
trine are the ones who want money
to be scarce and the standard to be
dear, SO that they can the more
easily control the money Of the
country and make the farmers and
laborers pay tribute to them for the
use of what they ought to have
themselves.

We don't know as it makes much
difference how the Democratic pres
idential nominee used to spell his

it. No matter where his forefath-
ers came from, VIM. Us family has

The Noncontormist aptly says:
at is time for candid men of bust.
ness and property to be casting
about them. They should realize
that labor is not anarchistic, but it
is revolutionary. 1t wants work
not as slave or serf, but as a man.
1t wants to produce property, but
If it does so it wants to enjoy a fair
share of that production. Now is
the time for intelligent men to
think upon these things"

filled with visitors from the provinces who
expect 10 take part in the fete in honor of
the Gar. Forty thousand people are
walking the streets tonight, having been
unable to secure accom- modations. The
omnibuses and cars have been literally
packed with humanity, and hundreds of
people are standing along the streets
waiting patiently TO find some means of
conveyance. A majority OF those desir-
ing to get about the city are compelled to
walk. The cab and carriage drivers are
taking advantage of the great influx of
visitors and are charging fancy prices for
the use of their vehicles, little attention
being paid TO the established tariff.
This, however, does not cause much

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Oct As the
train from Lathrop was coming into this
city at o'clock tonight the engineer saw
man lying by the side of the track at
Second and R streets, with his neck across
one of the rails.
Before the train could be stopped the
pilot struck the man, and the trainmen
supposed he had been beheaded. A
search failed to reveal the severed trunk
or the mangled head, but the man was
found in the weeds some feet away with
MS head still fast to his body.
He was taken to the Receiving Hos
pital, where only slight scalp wound
and some bruises on the shoulder were
found. The man proved to. be Wally
Nolan, dlssolute youth who is noted for
his toughness physically and otherwise.
He was drunk and had gone to sleep
with his head on the rail.
The game tram struck another drunken
track sleeper named Jack Robinson before
reaching the depot. He, too. escaped with
scalp puncture. The condition of the
locomotive has not yet been ascertained.

yesterday is still the sensation of Carson.
The owners of Drummer were up all night
with the horse, which suffered terribly
from the swelling and inflam nation. at
one time Thompson & O'Keefe thought
they would lose the horse, but about noon
to-day second sponge was extracted. ana
the animal will probably recover. Those
who " itnessed the agony of the horse be-
fore the obstruction was removed say that
they would be glad of chance to hang the
miscreant who did the plugging.
Alliance and Vanity seem all right to-

after they were inserted, but the owner of
Vanity thinks another small sponge is still
in the horses nose. He suspected jobbery

from the track to ivery-stable, where it
was guarded. One of the watchers went

BERLIN, GERMANY. Oct. 4--The action
of the Berlin Tageblatt in contracting with
the United Associated Presses for the
special American service of that organiza-
tion, which is now being delivered daily
to large number of European journals,
is significant OF the interest which is taken
on the continent IN the political prospect
in the United States. The bourses, which
are chief among those interested in watch
ing the progress OF the campaign in
America, are looking forward eagerly to
more definite indications of the out
come of the election than the
estimates of boards of rival politi-
cal parties have hitherto supplied. The
commercial community. despite their an
t1pathy to the tariff views held by Mr..
Mckinley, are hoping for the triumph OF
the "sound money" or gold party, while
the aggrarians, on the other hand, pro-
fess to regard Candidate Bryan as sort
of savior, and rejoice in the utterances of
Prince Bismarck in his recent letter to
Governor Culberson of Texas, which they
believe must have tendency to materially
influence the situation.
The Berlin representative of the United
Associated Presses learns that the German
Government fully expects that the United
States will institute system of reprisals
against Germ any Immediately after the
election, no matter what might be the re-
suit thereof
