to secure Pritchard's election, and
to control and divide out the
state patronage to the unholy COM
bine, makes it In the future the party
of perfidy and dislonor in North
Carolina.
Senator Prichard's election ia the
dearest bought position ever secured
by him or any man. It not only de.
stroys any possible future for his
party in the state, but it taints him
with the questionable, not to say in.
fam GUS, methods employed by Han
mas agents, Skinner g. Co., to secure
the same. In addition to this, his
backsliding, waddling and Hopping
on the financial question has lost to
him the respect of even a large part
of his own party"
What" the Senator was asked,
do you think of ex-Vice-Presidential
Candidate Watson's course in the
contestf"
"Mr. Watson's COURSE" he replied,
sdoes not surprise me in the least. 1t
is perfectly natural for a man who
preferred the election of Mckinley to
that of Bryan, and so proved his pre-
ference by failing to vote for Bryan,
to favor the election of Mark Hanna's
man, Pritchard, to the United States
Senate in preference to the election
of a straight Populist Senator, espec-
tally when the vote of that Senator
determines whether the gold men
shall have a.majority of the Senate
of the Peoples Party shall have the
balance of power in that body to
protect the interests and welfare of
the people. 1t is very noticeable
that nearly every fellow who posed
as q middle-of-the-road Populist in
the last campaign-every fellow that
was such straight and conscientious
Populist that he could not afford to
vote the joint ELECTORAL tickets, when
enough such voters wonld have
meant the election of Bryan instead
of McKinley--has been bowling and
working for election of Pritchard and
against the election of straight
Populist for Senator from North Car
DINA. This is true of nearly every
one of the few middle-of-the-road
Populists in North Carolina; and
even of certain prominent so.called
middle-of-the-road Populists in other
states, who were so anxious for the
election of Pritchard that they wrote
letters and sent kilograms to Raleigh
in Pritchards interest, enc orsing the
action of the boilers, and advising
them to vote for Hanna's candidate
instead of for straight Populist for
United States Senator. And among
these was one Thomas E. Watson.
Developments in the near future may
throw some light on this meddling
and strange procedure on Mr.. Wat
sons part. But suffice it to say, that
these facts throw some light on Mr..
Watson's character and the motives
that prompted him to pursue the
strange and foolish course that he
did in the last campaign.

No less than 10, 900 people are fore ed
to ask for help in the city of Des
Moines this winter. Had it been a
severely cold winter the suffering
would have been terrible.
F. M. Hubble, and E. H. Hunter
have been appointed by the state fair
people to try and arrange with the
several railroads in Iowa for much
lower rates than have ever yet been
granted. 1t is hoped to secure rate
of SO for all points in the state and a
correspondingly low rate for points
within 1000 miles of Des Moines,
Judge Conner says he very much
doubts the legality of a law that
would prevent any political party
from placing on its ticket any candi-
date it wants, regardless of whether
the name appear on another party's
ticket or not, and if the legislature
pushes the proposed antifusion meas
ure through test case will be
brought and the courts will have to
decide the matter. One thing is sure,
however much legality there may be
in such move there is certainly no
justice. No legislature has right to
legislate especially for any political
party and as this move is for the pur-
pose of preventing the defeat of the
republican party it cannot be denied
that it would be legislation expressly
Tor that party.
The address from the combined
silver committee was published last
Friday and is ringer. 1t is signed
by the nine committeeman, three
from each faction, and Is quite
lengthy. 1t shows how there can be
no prosperity without more money
and how there can be no more money
without the reconciliation of silver.
1t insists upon the continued har-
monious alliance of all the elements
that supported Bryan in the last
campaign and sets forth reasons
therefor. 1t shows up the failure of
the money crowd to establish bogus
return of prosperity on wind, pre-
diets great reaction of public senti-
ment and future victory for the re-
form forces. 1t is an exhaustive
treatise on the gold and silver ques-
ton, andEis thus educational as we'll
as stimulant to action. Every silver
man should read it and see that his
misguided goldbug neighbor does so.

Rights OF Bicyc,ers.

A bicycle rider was run down and in
5ured by a street car going in the
direction in which he was go
ing. His suit against the railway
company to recover damages for per-
sona1 injuries was dismissed by the
lower court on the ground that his ad-
mitted failure to look behind him was
contributory negligence on his part.
The appellate division of the supreme
court, after reviewing the case, decided
that a person riding a wheel must, first
OF all, keep good lookout in front and
on both sides; that il this be done, the
rider cannot keep watch behind; and
that to require a constant rear lookout
would amount to prohibition of bicycle
riding. Therefore, to say the least, the
question whether this rider was guilty
of contribntory negligence in not see
ing the oncoming car should have been
submitted to the jury. Anew trial was
ordered. The result of the new trial
will interest several millions of pesons
in the United States. The bicycle has
como to stay, and the statutes and de-
cisions relating to its use will consti-
tute an important feature Of the law.

Niaeara,s Power.

The power of Niagara is now divided
between two rival companies. The Ma
CARA Falls Hydraulic Power and Manu-
featuring company, which is to compete
with the Niagara Falls Power company,
opened its great power house few
days ago, and announces that it is ready
to supply 10000 horse power-enough
to run all the machinery in Buffalo, ap-
plications for permission to enter which
city have already been fled. The chief
engineer OF this enterprise is W. c.
johnson, well-known Massachusetts,
man. For the last ten years he has
been engaged on the work at Niagara,
which has involved many difficult me-
chanical problems and great deal Of
excavation. The canal inlet is near that
of the other company, and, winding
through the city OF Niagara Falls, it
empties part OF its flow into a gigan-
tic penstock, at a head Of 210 feet, and
with a stream eight feet in diameter.
This penstock is the largest in the
world, and is capable of yielding 1000
horsepower.
