incoln-lhe fusonists OF Lincoln,
with a number from nearby towns, cele-
brated their victory of last Tuesday in
ratification at the state capitol grounds
tonight. A parade through the business
streets preceded the speech making.
Bryap's address WAS brief and one OF
congratulation to the Fusion forces
rather than summary of election re-
suits and their meaning, as was expect
ed National issues were hardly refer
red to. Governor Poynter, Ex-Governor
Holcomb and other state officers spoke,
each lauding and giving him credit for

The politician now has fled
To hide away and cool his head,
And find a hat not quite 30 large
To deck his cunning brainy barge.

And business duties slyly shirk;
Or bold the corner by the bank
Predicting that his vote will rank
The highest on tbe party's list,
And leave the others in the mlst

Because our friend went up to Salt
To visit chums and mates OF his

And place title to their name.

And groan W hen thinking what it cost

And left tn IN in an awful fix

Who in the end will triumph right.

With laughs and smiles the frowns

To win the day and beat the rest;
But never mind some day you'll win
For 'lection's bound to come again.

Said jefferson Didn't Know.
Joseph Nimmo, Jr., of Washington was
the next speaker. He said In part:
New, forces now assert themselves and
new conditions confront us. Mr.. Jefferson
had no conception of the enormous man
ufacturing or mining industry or OF the
force of those modern agencies of COM
merce and transportation, which are the
chief source of the wealth and power OF
the country to-day. Hence the old prob
lem of the regulation of competition
through combination and of governmental
restraint upon combination, comes up I'M
der changed conditions The task which
devolves upon the men of the present
generation is to solve that problem, al
least for our own time, upon approved
principles of justice and of sound public
policy, and in such manner as not to
disturb the sure foundations upon which
our civilization and our governmental sys-
tenn rests. The whole question. as l view
it, relates to the limitations which should
be imposed upon both competition ana
combination by the people themselves in
the course of their own interaction and
through beneficent governmental regula-
tons justified by the lessons of expert
ence."
DR.. Nimmo then discussed the Ameri-
can railway system, as ii was the branch
of the subject with which he was most
familiar.
DIR. Nimmo claimed that the following
were ndisputable historical facts:
l. The railroad on particular lines, al
though an apparent monopoly, has become
the chief instrumentalHy in creating a
competition more extensive, more general
ly diffused and more potential than was
ever known before in the worlds history.
2, The American railroad system had its
origin and most forceful impetus in the
necessities of the social and commercial
Intercourse of the people and in the de-
mands for uninterrupted postal and mill
tary communication.
3. The unity of the American railroad
system was at first opposed by railroad
proprietors on economic grounds tnd on
considerations of self-interest, but such
opposition has gradually disappeared as
the result of the coercive demand of the
public interest.
4. Agreements as to absoluteAand rela-
tive rates originated in mutual needs Of
the railroad and of the commercial and
industrial interests of the country.
s. Agreements for the division of COM
Detitive traffic have been found TO he

Leon Herrmann's Excellent Perform
ance of Magic.
Leon Hermann the magician and pres
tidigitator, gave pleasing performance at
the theater last night to small audience.
The tricks in legerdemain which opened
the performance were nearly an old ones,
that is they were among those performed
by the Elder Hermann but the young ma
eician DID them in such a dexterous and
marvellous manner that they were thor
oughly enjoyed. lie gave the trick with
the watches, the ring trick and various
other sleight-of-hand tricks that were
mystifying and amusing. What was really
his piece de resistance was what he called
the birth of the butterfly. 1t was the most
elaborate of all the pieces and came near
er the famous illusiOns'of the great Herr
mann than did any of the other tricks.
Leon Hermann shows by his work that
he was a close student of his uncle, for
it seems after all that the dead magician
was his uncle, and not his father, as has
been stated. He has many of his man
nerisms, makes up like him and employs
many of the little pleasantries that used
TO make Herrmanns entertainments so
entertaining. The saffron-hued attendant
who assists him is called "Boomsky,"
but he is not the same "Boomsky" who
waited on the famous wizard, for all
that.
There was a musical team, or, rather,
ouartette. the four Buciers, who perform
ed on various musical instruments and
contributed to the enjoyment Of the en-
tertainment.
