Indiana Bicycle Company's Display-A
Campaign Lie Refuted.

The Sentinel yesterday morning contained
an article doing the Indiana Bicycle Com
pany q great injustice. 1t claimed that
President Smith sent postal cards to men
who have been laid off ordering them to
turn out in the Republican parade to light.
No postal cards were sent out, although
the Sentinel gives what purports to be
copy of one. The following circular was
sent by the company to the men who have
been recently laid off On account of the
dull business caused by the free-siver
scare:
Dear Sir-This company. with its en-
ployes has been asked tC join in the clos

evening, and to that end we invite you as

strength of the soundmoney sentiment in

so need have any fear that his standing
with the company will be in any manner
affected thereby.
The company will be equipped with ap-

make fine showing. If you desire to join

The San Francisco call., 1896-11-08

perament to blind himself with his own
ideals, and the terrible problems of the
day occupied him too much-made him
sacrifice his poetry to the needs of his fell
low-men. He became socialist, not only
in the best sense of the term. but actively,
carrying his principles OF equality into his
relations with his workmen. The actual
condition of the poor was to him a subject
of the keenest misery to the very end of
his life, and unconsciously he, perhaps,
did more harm than good by his passion
ate pamphlets, his lectures and addresses
TO the various clubs OF workmen of which
he was member.
Dreamer of dreams, born out of my
due time, why should l strive to set the
crooked straight" he wrote in a moment
of WEAKNESS and despair. But he did
strive. and the striving brought that
shadow of doubt and melancholy into his
poetic work so distinguished for it's calm
ness and serenity, the freshness and
sparkle of gayety almost Chaucerian.
The sympathy with socialism is not
very great in America, perhaps because
the intense dep.h of such poverty as
meets the eye in England is not evident
and is not even existent. Here we read
every day of men of rank and power
throwing themselves and their wealth in
to the balance against the desperate food
OF abiect misery and pauperism. There is
no touch of personal interest, of desire
for applause, of political or other advan-
tage in their endeavors to stop the tide,
and however vain, however wild and
visionary the attempt, we have only re-
spect and admiration for the effort. Un-
fortunately the very arguments that are
most convincing to the intelligent and
prosperous men, the ringing eloquence of
sympathy for the wrongs of the weak aad
downtrodden, become firebrands in the
mouths OF the ignorant, the half-starved,
the idle, fanatical socialist workman. To
him socialism and anarchism are synony-
nous terms.
In Merton Abbey, in the beautiful
county of Surrey, where every village sta
tlon is overgrown with roses and Towering
vines, it is a very sunny kind of socialism
that William Morris was responsible for,
Here in ths old Norman monastery the
idle singer of an empty day" lived and
labored. Here to any visitor sincerely in
terested in his work on the labor prob
lens he was always to be found, robust
and powerful figure in blue blouse, with
great, hearty voice, and that strange
mixture of hostile reserve and fine cor
diality that made his manner so unusual.
He was always on the alert for cynical
or contempiuous attitude in others, but
once convinced of the contrary, and the
florid color would rise to his face, his ewes
would grow luminous and an indescriba-
BILE air of freedom and warmth would
emanate from his whole personality.
Merton Abbey was originally Norman
monastery, but from the time of Cromwell
it has been used for manufacturing pur-
poses.
Originally the place was the cradle for
textile printing in England.

the sky. But keep on and another descent
will lead into canyon and few hum
dred feet up this and all sight of the big
City is lost.
When once within this big canyon It is
hard to realize that only a few hundred
feet to the northeast there is big CITY
throbbing and pulsating with life. There
is no suggestion of it here, and as far as
the general aspect of nature goes one
might as well be in the depths of the
Sierras. Away to the south the road can
be seen winding among the hills, every
now and then disappearing behind bluff
only to reappear short distance farther
on. There Is breath of autumn in the
air. The grass on the hill sides is sparse
and brown, but the birds are singing and
the murmur of the brook can be heard as
1t tumbles over the rocks. A gentle wind
rustles the dead weeds and sends the dried
leaves flying. Listen. Not the faintest
sound of the big City comes in here. Surely
this cannot be San Francisco. But it

even if the clothes they wear have been
out Of fashion over half century, the
wearers are proud of them; perhaps proud
OF the length of time they have had them.
Half a mile from the Almshouse gate
the road is OF the most countryfied de.
scription. There are barns and stables on
both sides, and back on the hills dozens of
vegetable gardens. At present these
gardens are looking their best. Great
rows of all sorts of good things are in the
most perfect condition OF greenness, and
walking among them are gardeners sing
ing at their work.
Every loot of the Almshouse road is
pleasure to walk over TO any one who en-
Joys nature. Add to this the fact that it
Is within the limits of one of the largest
cities in the world, and the trip over 1t be-
comes most unique experience.
A peculiar feature of the Almshouse

might properly be named the Eucalyptus
road. for both sides of the driveway are
lined with the most picturesque speci-
mems OF those artistic trees. The trees are
just in their prime and make a most re-
freshing shade, that is pleasant to look at
in cool weather and cooling when the sun
is hot. This avenue is about 500 feet long,
and in some places the branches of the
trees meet overhead, forming a natural
archway. the equal of any in the State.
When the sun is low in the west and the
trunks of the trees cast lons shadows over
the roadway, then is it indeed beautiful
sight. The spots of light dance as if en-
dowed with life. land the whole interior of
the archway is filled with soft glow that
mingles with the quivering sunshine.
Beyond the Almshouse there is clear
ing where the inmates of the institution

trees. They add considerably to the
picturesqueness of the scene. those poor

have been made in the field of material
physics which nave developed the fact
that the basis of all physical action Is
vibration. 1t is now conceded fact that
the process of assimilation is a vibratory
one. / do not mean that our foods ana
our beverages are transformed into be-
coming parts and portions of our living
organisms by process of shaking recog-
nizable by human vision, but that every
atom of matter, be it of whatever kind,
has definite rate of vibration, and that
changing the rate OF vibration of that
atom changes its form of manifestation.
So that an atom of iron entering into the
human frame is by the rate OF vibration
of the assimilation process so acted upon
as TO have its rate changed, making 1t
component part of our system. This
means that there is work to be done.
Measured by our finite scales il would not
appear that very great amount or dy-
| manic force was necessary TO change the
rate of vibration of single atom. lnves-
tigation of the laws of molecular attrac-
| ton demonstrate that in single drop of
| blood there are no less than five hundred
| thousand million million millions of
atoms, each separated from each other by
spaces larger than the atoms. The figures
are almost too great for our mental grasp,
and yet they are demonstra BILE. Thus,
while the operation of a single atom may
be but the expenditure of an infinitesimal
force. yet the operation of the aggregate
involves the exercise of enormous energy.
Ifthese premises are correct, and they
are virtually established, then it follows
that if the vibratory force of assimilation
can by any means be maintained at its
normal rate without slackening, the pro-
cess of appropriation, use aud election of
atoms by the human system will go on ad
infinitum, and there will be nc decay and
consequently no death.
We require TO know the rate of vibration
of assimilation.
The foremost scientists of the age have
enunciated that there is but one form of
the primitive atom, and that all other
atoms, of whatever name, are but the diff
ference in the grouping and motions of the
primitives.
