The same old Yarn with Variations.

About the funniest thing which ever
happened to Kansas populism is this
Before the war the Populists had been
saying that Mckinley would declare
war in order to obscure economic evils
inside this country. Mckinley didn't
want war and in two weeks Populists
said Mckinley was afraid to wage war
because the money power wouldn't
consent to it. Then when the war
began the Populists said we could win
easily if it was not for Carnegie's blow
holes in the ships armour. Then
when we won, the Populist papers said
Mckinley would keep the Philippines
because that was imperialism and i'm
perialism led to an emperor. And
then when Mckinley said that he did
not want the Philippines, the Popu-
lists sneaked for their holes. And they
are there yet--Osborue Farmer.

and two are lunar, and the minimum
number of eclipses is two, which must
both be solar. The year 1897, the Sec

GROWING INDUSTRY.
Phenomenal Increase in Number of
Patents on Cycles.
The Last Two Years Has Witnessed
an Immense Impetus to the
Bicycle Business in All
Branches.

In the whole system of our patent
system none of the mechanical arts has
inspired in an equal period of time such
extensive and widespread activity as
those that relate to the cycle. In 1866,
when Lallement filed his application
for his now celebrated patent for We
locipede, only 20 patents had been is.
sued by the United States for rider
propelled vehicles. At that time all
of these were classified by. the patent
office as Carriages and wagons" and
were included in the class having that
official title. By January 1, 1869, 43
patents for such vehicles had issued.
With the year 1869 the ''velocipede
mania" came upon the country. In
that year velocipede patents were in
creased by about 200, andin consequence
were grouped together as a subclass OF
carriages and wagons and officially
designated ''velocipedes." After the
mania of 1869, invention in velocipedes
remained practically dead until 1876,
when the English exhibits of bicycles
at the Centennial exposition gave it an
impetus. Until the year 1890, how
ever, when the influence of the pneu-
matte tire began to be felt, the growth
of invention relating to cycles was COM
paratively slow. In 1890 one assistant
examiner in the patent Office was able
to examine all applications filed in this
class of inventions. Since 1890 nearly
1000 of the 5000 United States patents
for velocipedes have been granted. In
1892 the applications had become so nu-
merous that velocipedes were collected
into a class by themselves distinct from
carriages and wagons and transferred
to another division, which was then en-
ployed in the examination of veloci-
pedes, harvesters and games and toys.
The class was then split up into some
35 subclasses for convenience of ex-
animation. Applications accumulated
so rapidly that games and toys were
soon crowded out and sent elsewhere,
and in May, 1897, harvesters also were
forced out and the class of velocipedes
now forms by itself one examining
division, requiring the labor of one ex-
aminer, nine assistant examiners and
five clerks to handle the great number
of applications. And even with this ex-
pert force, a force larger than any other
examining division in the patent office,
passing on 800 applications, new and
amended each month, more applications
are awaiting action there than in any
other division. In fact, on an aver
age during the past two years twice as
many cases have been awaiting action
in this division as in any other, and
three times as many as in most of them.
And, withal, the class of velocipedes
does not include motorcycles, wheels,
tires, cycle accessories, nor the numer-
Gus special machines, all of which ex-
ist only because of the cycle. During
1892 about 600 velocipede applications
were filed, in 1894 about 825, in 1895,
1900; in 1896, about $500, and in 1897,
about $500, including the various ac-
ccssories, gear cutting and tube draw
ing machines and special machinery de-
signed for use in the cycle factory

proposed road, it is said, will cross the
Cascade range at the Natchez Pass

A Soldier Calls Lewis Down.

| OLYMPIA, Sept. l6.-One of the
statements made by James Hamilton
Lewis in his speech Wednesday even
ing was that the shoes sold the govern
ment, at an extortionate price were so
poor that the first time the soldiers
stepped IN water the soles dropped off.
He also made much of large govern
ment contract for overcoats "for use
OF the soldiers in July-in Cuba"
This hit was loudly applauded by Gov.
| Rogers and the other state office hold
ers who occupied the stage
Now there is in Olympia soldier
boy of Santiago who was twice wound
ed by Spanish bullets and is now home
on sick furlough. Private Ed. Nc.
CLARITY is well known Olympia boy
who was one of the first to enlist and
was all through the Santiago cam
paign, leaving there on the Sunday
Cervera made his fatal attempt to es-
cape from the harbor He was landed
there with the first troops and tramp
ed over all the hills and valleys and
waded through the creeks and swamps,
and lay in,the Santiago trenches fight
ing Spaniards until carried from the
field He heard Lewis speech We'd
nesday night, and on being asked
about the clothing provided the boys,
he said:
81 have pair of shoes and an over
coat at my fathers house in this city.
The shoes | have are fair sample of
all that were worn in the Santiago
campaign. The shoes are frst-class,
and Lewis talk about them being pa
per shows his ignorance OF the subject.
[ saw about all the boys in that cam
paign, and no one was going around
shoeless.
AS to overcOats, man needs good,
big heavy one down there, yes, and in
July, too. The nights in Cuba are
cold and wet, and man would be
chilled to death in the trenches with
out heavy overcoat. I would like to
see Lewis down there forty-eight hours
without heavy overcoat. His car
cass would smell whole lot worse the
next day than the bacon he ran his
nose into at Newport News.
"The boys who took care of them
selves and followed instructions got
along all right. I was through it all
as an enlisted man and l know pretty
nearly how it is. The government
did it's duty, and Gen. Shatter is all
right. If Dude Lewis was half as good
man he would be entitled to my res
pect."
The public sentiment against Lewis
speech is strong in each party, al
though the Republicans are not sorry
at the opportunity given Mr.. Lewis
admirers to see what gross misstate-
ments and narrow vindictiveness he is
capable of. Several radical Populists
have expressed their dlsapproval OF
some of Mr.. Lewis rank statements,
and plainly show there are bounds TO
the abuse and misrepresentation of
the Republican administration over
which they as party are not willing
to follow even such leader as James
Hamilton Lewis.-P.-I.

commission in the army for the young
man. The President was informed that
his services would be of great value TO
the United States. because of his thor
ough knowledge of the country round
about Havana, and sent his name to the
Senate to be a lieutenant.
The nomination was promptly confirmed
and Lieut. Carbonel was ordered TO Jack
sonville for duty. 1t was made known to
him that when the real army of invasion
starts for Cuba he will be expected to go
along, and so it was arranged that his
wedding should take place at once.
The invitations to the wedding had been
issued, and the event was to take place
at the home of Mrs. John A. Logan, who
has been the good friend of Miss Cisneros
since she reached Washington.
When the lieutenant reached the capital
late Wednesday afternoon he sought Sc
nor Gonzale de Quesada, the charge de
atfaires of the Republic of Cuba in Wash
ington and with him proceeded to the
office of the clerk of courts to procure a
wedding license. There the great stumb-
ling block was met with in the form of
the revised statutes of the United States.

thing was all right, for he is now a citi-

ular force to the District of Columbia, it is
Illegal to issue marrige license to a per-
son who is not a citizen of the United
States, unless that person be accompanied
by the minister or consul from that coun-
try to testify that the case is correct and
proper.
Senior Queseda offered such testimony
In behalf of Miss Cisneros, but he was re-
minded by the clerk that he was not recog-
nized at Washington as the representative
of the Republic of Cuba, and further. and
more to the point, the Republic of Cuba is
not recognized In Washington. So no IL
cense could be issued.
Later in the evening the clerk called
upon Senior Quesada at the headquarters
of the Republic of Cuba, at the Raleigh, and
offered a suggestion. He told him that in
Maryland there is no law that prevents a
citizen of a foreign country from procur-
ing a marriage license, and suggested to
him that the young couple go to Baltimore
and be married there. The suggestion
was accepted, and the wedding took place
at the Hotel Rennert In Baltimore Thurs
day. The next day Mr.. and Mrs. Cabonel
came to Savannah.
