Not for years has the Democracy been
so thoroughly united as now. Around
Judge Van Wyck and the ticket he
heads, Democrats are rallying cordially.
In that state there is no division and
harmony insures victory. In Illinois, as
a sign of the times, General John M.
Palmer, who was the goldite candidate
for President, has again joined the
Democratic party. In Pennsylvania it
is the same. The Democrats separate d
in the last two years, are together again
in earnest support OF George A. jerks
for governor.

THE MIC HTy MATT QUAY.

Pennsylvania senator, Quay, seems
to have come to period in his career
which may try him sorely. His "plum
tree" may not have a success this time
30 as to save him.
On February IL, last, Quay tele-
graphed from San Lucs, Fla, to John
S. Hopkins, who committed suicide
after the failure OF the Philadelphia
bank, of which he was the cashier:
"If you buy and carry 1000 met, for
me, will shake the plum tree.
IN. s. QUAY"
1t seems Quay meant by his dispatch
that if Mr.. Hopkins would buy on a
margin 1000 shares of Metropolitan
fraction stock, that he, Quay, could and
would bull the market and force the
stock up so that they could make a
good profit by selling at an advance.
This would be shaking the plum tree"
This man Quay has been shaking the
political plum tree in Pennsylvania for
many years. He has been a gambler in
political and other stocks and is skilled
in ways that are dark in such cases.
How the plum tree was shook in this
instance we know not. The bank it is
known, tailed, and the cashier, victimized
and caught probsbly, committed sui
eide. One may infer from all this that
it was not success so far as the bank
and cashier we're concerned. 1t has
been charged that Q1ay and other
United States senators, not long ago,
operated in the sugar stocks, and made,
for they had been tinkering at the tariff
schedule, and so held the cards. How.
ever, MIR. QIay may be near the end of
his crooked career.

RAILROAD CHANGES.

On anu alter July first all freight en-
gines on the Salt Lake division will
chaingang both ways between Wads-
worth and Ogden. That is, freight en-
gine coupled on to train at Wadsworth
will stay with that particular train clear
through 10 Ogden, and vice versa, an en-
gine coupled on to a train at Ogden will
come through to Wadsworth with that
train. The engine crews, however, will
only run between the points they do at
present.
The causes for such radical change
are interesting to operators of railroads
and the results OF the experiment will
furnish volumes of figures to railroad
economists. The life and value and use
fulness of locomotive are gauged by the
mileage it can make and the conditions
under which it can make the greatest
mileage form the problem to be solved.
So far as space will permit we may say
it has been contended by many railroad
managers that locomotive handled bv
one engine crew as much as possible
will do better work and more of it and
consequently last longer than it would
il handled by different crews, each and
every locomotive having certain indiv-
iduality best understood by the man
familiar with it through long and varied
service. 1t is also held on the maxim
that "a stitch in time saves nine" To-
comotive should have u given daily nil
cage and then careful inspection and
necessary repairs made at that time.
On the other hand it is contended that
chainganging is more profitable to rail-
road company because the locomotives
used are ot the same class and make
on this division Rhode Islands and Me-
Queens, -wheelers- Ind engine crews
viii quickly become familiar with them;
that firing up expense will be saved at
three or tour stations; that firing up less
frequently lessons liability Of a;ci lent to
boilers, aud consequently reduces cost of
repairs that there is a saving in lnbri-
cants, and finally investment is so great
gument for the new move.
There are many reasons why chain
ganging is not popular with the em-
ployes, the principles ones being that the
engineer and firemen do not "know" the
engine, the engineer works harder and
with less satisfaction, the fireman uses
more coal, tools are missing, the men
have to pack Saratogas containing their
clothes, ice is wanting, the machine gets
less care by somebody shirking, it gets
dirty, and because it is everybody's no.
body takes any particular pride ,luxuries
in patent seats and private convneiences
and nicnscs are out OF the question.
The officials claim that cost of repairs
will not increase under the new order of
things, while the men say repairs will
sound its death knel.
The new arrangements will, if any
thing, be benefit to Wadsworth. 1t
will require more work OH the engines
at this point in the matter Of cleaning
and round house repairs.

OBSERVATIONS.

1t has always been debated question
among the railroad boys as to which of
the towns-Winnemucca or Carin--is
the least desirable, but choice made by
a young ralroader who felt his cherished
hopes were nipped prematurely in the
bud, must forever place this question at
rest. He left the following note in his
seat box on the eve of his departure, to
be handed to his anxious friends:
Dear Father and Mother-I have
nothing more to live Tor. Am going to
Winnemucca. Good bye"
After this nothing more remains to g
said.

ment took place. When the engine had
stopped humping over the ties and along
with several coaches gracefully reposed
in a soft bed of fertile Loveloeks soil, the
fireman who is close reader of yellow
journalism and badly inoculatea with
the fear OF treachery in the country, slid
over on the engineers side and shouted

An Artistic Landsman Gets Some
Pointers from the jolly Sea
ROvers.

The sailor man, when in deep water, can
not conceal the feeling of superiority with
which he regards the untarred landlubber.
Some of the noncombatants who sailed the
gulf and the Caribbean during the war
learned to keep an eye on the mariners and
others gained painful experience before they
got their sea legs.
An artist who boarded a grimy tugboat
clad in white linen found his coat covered
with coal dust when he was day from port
and decided to wash it. He filled bucket
with sea water and fell to work When he
had scrubbed the garment for 20 minutes he
was satisfied.
Then it occurred to him to starch the coat
pockets. He did SO, and pulled out-his gold
watch.
He was perturbed. The crew laughed and
he rebuked them. They bided their time.
Then one Of them told the artist that the
proper way to restore the coat to its normal
color was to tie line to it, heave it over
BOARD and tow it for few hours The artist
did so.
When he went below deck hand hauled
the coat aboard, united the line and hiding
the coat made fast ragged piece of white
duck and threw it overheard.

line ne was the angriest man on the tug.

was that shark had seized the coat, until
