FAILURE A TRIUMPH.

NO one will deny that Ignatius Donelly's
heart Is in the right place. but somehow
or other all his efforts are failures. The
sage OF N1ninger is a scholar, thinker an
aitrulst but he is a dreamer. When he says
that tne prOSpectS-Of the middle of the road
Populist party are bright, he is indulging
in the same vain hope that has deuded him
In the thousand and one other movements
that he has participated in. If Ignatus
Donnelly, with his large intellectually, had
had balance wheel. he would have been
warranted in indulging almost any am
bition-political or otherwise. AS it is he

a single great accomplishment to his credit

And he didn't set them right, either,

WE ALL THINK ALIKE.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Sept. 10.-The
Republican state convention met here today
with Joseph Smith, of Ogden, temporary
and ex-senator Swayn as permanent chair
man. Chief Justice Zane was nominated
for supreme judge, and Alma f. Eldredge
for congress. The platform demands pro-
lection, bime tallism and reciprocity, and
says: Independent of the action of any
other nation. we favor the free and un-
limited coinage of silver at the ratio of
IL to l.
What pity Senator Butler was not
present at this Republican convention,
to make a speech urging the Populists of
Utah to combine with the Republicans
ca because they agreed with the Peo-
pies party in favor of the free coinage
of silver at the ratio of sixteen to one!
He says "the friends of free silver should
not be divided" Ergo, the Populists of
Utah should give up their party and
join the Republicans. ID.

A NEW OUTLOOK.

The traffic manager of one OF the largest
western roads running into Chicago is
quoted as saying
Not one ear load of wheat has come
into Chicago from the West this season,
and under present conditions not one will.
From Kansas City to the gulf wheat is be-
ing carried for Il cents per 100 pounds. The
authorized rate is q cents. From Kansas
City to Chicago the rate is 10 cents The
through rate to the Atlantic seabOard is
321a cents. The gulf ports therefore have
an advantage over the Atlantic ports OF
2O1a cents. We cannot expect to do any
business under such conditions. Eastern
roads steadily refuse to lower their rates,
and we are helpless Chicago must be con-
tent to be thus handicapped until the east
ern lines awake to a realization of the fact
that they are destroying their own bust
ness.
An effort is now being made to build
a new railroad from Minnesota to the
gulf If this is accomplished it will
revolutionize the traffic of the CONT
nent. l. D.

L, s, SENATOR ALLEN.

AS promised last week, we present
herewith a report of the famous cam
paign in Iowa in 1878, where VIM. v.
Allen filled to perfection the position OF
a CRATER for the Republicans. Here
is the letter of our correspondent, every
word of which is true and Youched for:
There is nothing strange in the present
attitude of United States Senator Allen and
his Democratic efforts to lodge the entire
national Peoples party organization into
the nav Of the national Democratic party.
1t is we'll understood, and currently be-
lieved that all of his early political affiia-
lions were with the so-caled ''bourban'' De-
mocracy in northeastern Iowa.
This is the homo locality of ex-Congress-
man Weller. In 1878 the old-fashioned
greenbackers OF that section met in dis
trct convention and nominated Mr. Weller
as their candidate for congress after spir-
tied yet pleasant display in favor of other
candidates. especially Judge Porter
MIR. Weller had made 4 campaign for
state senate the election previous as an
independent, with such astonishing results

CONVENTION FREAKS.

1t is commonly though erroneously be-
lieved that freaks are mostly confined
to manageries and dime museums. On
the contrary, there are few political
conventions of modern times in which
freaks are not conspicuously in evidence.
AS a rule they belong to the genus
homo. Words are inadequate to vivid
ly pictures the striking characteristics
of this species. Specimens must be both
seen and heard to be fully appreciated.
