PROMISED TOO MUCH.

The prommissory notes issued by
the Mckinley campaign committee
last fall, payable in prosperity, are
now maturing and the people of the
country will 10Y have to look to the
endorsers of the notes for payment.
The name Of the Republican party is
on the back of the paper and from
present appearances the endOrser will
be compelled to repudiate the obliga-
ton.
This OF course will work a hardship
on millions of people who too cOnfd-
ingly took stock in these promises,
but it is a good deal worse than that
for it works equal hardships on peo-
pie who regarded the promises as
fraudulent from the beginning.
In other words the ,~1aiority of the
voters of the United States have IL
hIicted the penalties of their foolish
ness on the minority.
In anticipation of a tremendous
business under the auspices of the
Dingley tariff bill, the Eastern mer-
chant has loaded his shelves with
goods but the buyers have not ma
terialized. The policy of the gold
men has been to deprive the poor OF
sufficient circulating medium and in
consequence, there being no money
to speak of in TIE hands of the
masses there is very little business.
Free coinage would put money III the
hands Of the masses and plenty Of
money means plenty of business.
You can make goods on the shelves
of the merchant increase in value by
a tariff, but the tariff won't make
money on the other side of the Coun.
tet to buy the goods. The goods are
there and the Dingley tariff is with
them but the money to purchase the
goods at tariff prices is all locked uI
in Wall street or must be used to pay
interest to the British bondholder.
But the Eastern merchant is get
ting the tariff and he is getting a Nc
kinley Administration and he should
be content.

The business failures of the
country have increased somewhat of
late, ant it may De presumed that
they will increase right along unless
there are short crops all over the
world except in America. The re-
CEN increase in failures are mainly
in the New England States and the
South-1nanufacturing States-and
have been caused by a scarcity of
money. For six years past, under
the rule of Harrison and Cleveland,
there existed a great depression.
Factories were shut down throughout
the manufacturing States, and grad
ually the supply of manufactured
articles was used up, SO that at the
beginning of the present administra-
ton there were but small stocks of
manufactured articles on hand. The
great cry hat a tariff was going to
bring about prosperity made d great
many IN the WeSt-the
consuming country-believe that bet
ter times would really come with a
change of administration, and they
ordered large supplies Of goods from
the East and South. This started
the factories for a time, but now it
appears that prosperity is not here,
generally, and the Western merch-
chants are COunternanding their
orders because they cannot sell their
goods as money is SO scarce with the
people who they depend upon to buy.
Consequently, there is an increase
in business failures, and the manu-
featuring centers will see an increase
in this line if they continue to run
the factories with the idea that the
good times are here and money is
plenty to buy their wares.

THE LocoMoTIvE SHREK.


lts Inventton Dne to the DestRoet1ea
81 u Load of EgGs.
II was in the year 1888, according to
an English exchange, that the head
splitting shrek of the locomotive was
born. When the country roads for the
most part crossed at grade the engine
driver had no way of giving warming of
his approach except by blowing a tin
horn. One day in the year 1898 farm
er was crossing the railway track on
one of the country roads with n greet
load of eggs andbutter when u train apr
proached. The engine driver blew his
horn Justify. but the farmer did not
hear it. Eighty dozen eggs and SO
pounds of butter were reduced to one
common pulp. and the railway COM
Pany had to pay what was then con-
sidered heavy damages.
A director of the company, Ashmead
Baxter by name. went TO Alton Grange,
where George Stephenson lived, to ask
II he could not invent something that
would give u warning more likely to
be heard. Stephenson went to work,
and the next day had a contriyance
which. when attached, to the engine
boiler and the steam turned on. gave
out u shrli. discordant sound The rail-
way directors, greatly delighted. or
reded similar contriyances to be at.
tached TO all their locomotives. And
this developed into the locomotive whis-

SAW IHRouaH HIS Nose

Modern Researches Prove the Truth
Of . story which In Centuries OLA.
Several authors of the sixteenth CEN
tury mentioned the existence Of a man
who, having lost his eyesight, could
see through his nose The story. much
doubted at the time and pronounced
fabulous by physicians, is nevertheless
true il the researches of E. Douiiot
prove correct, says the Philadelphia
Record. 1t seems that the victim had
lost his right eye early in life and later
on while climbing g cherry tree fell
upon fence. the pickets horribly mu-
tilating the left eye, the cheek and the
nose. The surgeon called in considered
the eye entirely destroyed. sewed up
the wound and it healed in sszne, form
ing large scar where the eye had been.
A year later the man. then considered
stone blind. lay in the grass when he
surprised himself by discovering that
he could perceive through the cavity
of the nose the sky and the color of the
flowers on the meadow around him.
From that time on he practiced for
five or six years TO see with his nose,
which to him became practically the
organ of vision. He gradually became
more proficient In seeing in this way
and could see every rything beneath him,
while he remained quite insensible TO
the light from above.
The condition Of this man can be ex-
planned scientifically. Although the
lens Of the eye had been torn from its
socket by the fall the optic membrane
and the nerves Mt the rear Of the cav-
ity Of the eye had retained some of the
seeing power. When the eye had healed
together small hole in the bone over
the nose must have formed which acted
rs a lens in the same way rs a pin hole
can be used to take q Photographic pic
ture- This also proves that the retins
of the eye acts like camera obscura
where the objects from the outside be-
come visible when the rays of light ar
rive there after passing through small,
opening.

THE BOWLING SEASON.
The Bowling Association Dimes at
Swett's Hotel.

The annual supper of the Portland
: Amateur Bowling association was held at
Swett's hotel Saturday evening and all
the clubs in the association were repre-
scented, about % being present. The
teams in the association are as follows:
Crescents, Tontines, Orients, Imperials,
Waverlys and Camp Columbias.
At 10 o'clock the company proceeded
to the dining room where Landlord SWEET
had a tempting supper prepared and the
efficient corps of young lady mattresses
served the guests in a most satisfactory
manner. After cigars were lighted the
company adjourned to the parlors, where
the balance of the evening was most en-
joyably rounded out with music by Mr.
Harry. Merriweather, singing by members
of the various teams, stories, etc.
1t has been the rule with the association
to wind up the bowling season with
supper and although there were, not as
many members present Saturday, night as
was expected yet those who did attend
were amply repaid by the happy manner
in which the evening was passed.
