Cleveland, August 2.-The police believe they have made an arrest which may lead to important developments in connection with the several attempts to blow up Big Consolidated cars since the beginning of the present strike John Schoethal, striking conductor, was taken into custody this morning on the charge of being a suspicious character. Several days ago well digger named Stokes, living at Nottingham, suburb, told the police that street rail- road man had tried to purchase dynamite from him. Schoethal admits that he is the man who approached Stokes, but he says he made the inquiry at the request of an- other man. The police declare they are not through with the investigation and LOOK upon the arrest as an important one.

 Passengers arriving here from Norfolk by boat to escape the yellow fever report general exodus from Norfolk and vicinity. Every man who can afford 1t is sending his family to a safe distance. Business, he says, was practically suspended and steam boat and railroad offices are beseiged with frightened people. One of the arriving citi- zens from Norfolk said that a lively fight was being made to keep the fever out of the city. Many sanitary inspectors and special policemen have been appointed and citizens generally have turned in to clean up the city. Many alarming ruMors were in circulation, one report not verified up to time saying that there were five cases in large town near Norfolk. No rumors prevailed of any cases in Norfolk itself. The volunteer surgeons today rendered their services to General Wyman for duty in the infected district. They are acting as assistant surgeons in Vicksburg Miss, and Assistant Surgeon John F. Anderson, of New York Dr. Frank Donaldson, of New York, an immune, who has seen service in Cuba, left this evening for Newport News under orders from pr. Wyman.

MARK AND HIS FLAG.

Republicans have carried six states
in which state elections were held this
year. showing gains in two and losses
in four of them. New Jersey gave Nc
Kinley a plurality of 1852 three years
ago, and the year before it gave the
Republican candidate for governor
plurality of $500. This year the Re-
publican ticket has carried by a little
less than 5000.
Massachusetts gave Mckinley 1925
plurality in 1896. The Republican ticket
won again this year but by 65,052 votes
more than the Democrat received.
Pennsylvania went Republican in 1896
by margin of 144,911; this years re-
turns indicate loss of nearly $4,000.
South Dakota gave Harrison a plu-
rality of S,344, but went for Bryan by
1S3 majority. 1t is Republican by aboue
1000 this year.
Ohio gave Mckinley As. 494 svotes more
than it gave Bryan. This year the fig
ures are about the same; Iowa shows
decided Republican gains.
1t is said that Hanna worked the war
for all there was in it-financially and
politically-and that he waved the flag
until many people were induced to
look upon him as the only genuine pat
riot in the land. 1t will be remember
ed that Mark desecrated the flag Just

WILD WESTERN NAMES.

The Chicago News overlooks the big
Hole Breeze" in northwestern Wyo-
ming when it calls attention to some
of the odd names bestowed upon
western newspapers. This is destined
10 take a place along with the Tomb
stone Epitaph of other days.
Among those recalled are the Shaw
nee Daily Dinner Bill of Oklahoma, a
name supposed to appeal to the hungry
subscribers and half-civilized Indians
of the locality. Then there are THE
kingfsher Kicker the Western Cy-
clone" and THE Thomas County Cat"
all advertised by the name az typical
and loyal papers of the wild and woolly
west.
Our Chicago contemporary mentions
The Pottawatomie Plain People, =
which, it thinks, has "a good sound"
as well as THE Hill City Lively Times
There is plenty of sound in these
names, to be sure, but the quality of
it is less conspicuous than the volume
These names give to the diminutive
sheets that bear them a sort of hunch-
back appearance. They are top-heavy.
Other picturesque titles are The
Kansas Cowboy" THE Comanche
Chief" and THE Kiowa Chief" The
Ensign Razzoop," The Jay Hawkeye,"
THE Prairie Dog" THE Prairie OWL"
THE Whimwham," THE Open Eye"
THE Fanatic" and The Grigsby City
Scorcher"
As a rule these newspaper names are
selected by tenderfeet who consider
them essential to securing the good will
of westerners or choose them to attract
the attention and arouse the solicitude
of timid relatives in the effete east.
They are as much out of place in the
modern west as is the bad man who
gave up discouraged years ago and re-
turned TO Chicago and New York.

GOLD STANDARD IN JEOPARDY

An eastern paper quotes from an
eastern supporter of the administration
to the effect that the financial policy
of the Republican party is in serious
danger if the Transvaal trouble con-
tinues for any considerable length of
time.
An interesting statement from the
London Economist respecting the gold
production of South Africa, not only
in the Dutch republics. but in the
region affected by the war; has caused
single gold standard.
The Official statement of the total
yield of gold,'' the article says, from
the Witswatersrand mines for August
was. like the returns for the two pre-
ceding months, much better than had
been generally anticipated. in. view of
the disturbed conditions prevailing in
the district, and the scarcity of native
labor. The amount of the precious
metal produced in the month was 49,
709 ounces, showing an increase of 1926
ounces over July, and S2.79s ounces as
compared with the corresponding
month of last year.
The present supply of minted gold in
the world is estimated approximately
at 81. 600 O00, 900, and the worlds annual
production is something like $500. 600, 900.
At $40 per ounce it will be seen that
the mines of South Africa give in years
of peace about So per cent of the annual
production of the world.
To cut off this supply for any length
of time, our goldbug friends believe,
would result in serious shaking up of
values and an eruption in the financial
centers of the world. So they do be-
lieve in the cumulative monetary the
DRY advanced by advocates of bimetal-
lism, after all.

COME TO THESE VALLEYS.

Now that the campaign is over The
Herald desires to cali attention again
to the undeveloped resources of the
state, the manifold opportunities for in
vestment, and the superior advantages
of Salt Lake City as dwelling place.
1t is necessary for all hands to join
now in telling the truth concerning the
city and state, to counterfeit the libels
that have been circulated broadcast for
partisan effect and admit what we all
know to be facts, that there isn't a more
iaw-abiding people as a rule anywhere.
and that no city on earth has better,
clearer, fresher, purer water than cir
culates through the water system of
this Alpine city.
The Herald desires to repeat now
what it maintained throughout the late
campaign, that the permanence of the
prosperity we enjoy is not so we'll as
sured that we can afford to allow cam
paign ISLANDERS upon the community to
circulate any longer uncontradicted.

of the Union. This city is natural
sanitarium, with its mineral springs, its
wonderful inland sea of salt, its snow
capped mountains whence the water
supply of the municipality is drawn
There is no place Of its size where the
air is more invigorating, or the sur
roundings more sublime, where the
water is freer from impurities or the
tributary country richer in natural
wealth. Salt Lake City is an ideal
home, a promising field for investment
and one of the most healthful cities in
all the healthful intermountain region.
Let investors come and see for them
selves or ascertain the private views
of those who have advertised it for
weeks as pest hole of immortality and
disease. They were only talking for
political effect.

the task proved. The talent and taste
of the author were stamped on the face
of it" While the constitution did not
meet with Mr.. Morris approval in all
respects, he nevertheless believed in it.
A little time after the convention had

aspect than they have yet worn, and
America will soon be as much respected
abroad as she has for some time past
been disregarded."
In the struggle that followed in the
states over ratification Hamilton invited
Morris to become one of the writers of
the Federalist papers. His correspon

MARYLAND'S CHANGE.


In view Of the clean sweep Democrats
made in Maryland Tuesday the follow
ing prediction made a day or two before
the election by prominent Republican
leader in the columns of the New York
Tribune, is amusing:
have been engaged for several days in
H. ~---s-s--es.. aiuib-
Der of speeches. As the result of my OBJ
servations and inquiry L will say that L
feed absolutely confident that the Repub-
licans will carry Maryland next week.
They are doing good work, and are fully
alive to the situation. The circular of the
gold Democrats gave a powerful momen-
tum. but Governs letter. published in the
papers yesterday, has made it certain that
the state will choose the Republican
ticket.
Not even the support of the so-called
gold Democrats. nor Governs wonderful
letter, nor even yet the number of
speeches made by Senator Pritchard
would save the day to the Republicans,
the fact that they had
the state administration and all the
election machinery in their hands.
