THE WHEEL

Judging from the number of cyclists
and drivers who persist in keeping to
the left of the road, there are a great
number of people who believe in the
English system of passing on the left
when the other vehicle is going in the
think 1t is mere absurdity for the
driver to sit on the right hand side
where he cannot see how closely he
passes another vehicle as he pulls to
right and let's it go by on his lefts~The
advocates of the English method, how
ever, are not those who keep on the
wrong side Of the road. They are most
ly persons who do not think at ALL The
American system is a commentary on
American roads. 1t originated on the
narrow dirt highways, where there
were bitches on both sides that made it
more important for the driver to watch
the wheels on the outside than those
next to the passing vehicle.
On streets with curbstones the plan
of passing to the left when overtakng
a vehicle was never so fully justified
as it has been since the advent of the
bicycle. AS the wagon in front is apt
to pull over to the curb at any time
to make way for an approaching We
hicle which the cyclist cannot see, there
is always danger of being jammed
when attempting to pass to the left.
In the case of a wagon the driver
ahead can hear it coming, and If 1t does
get crowded between the leading wag-
on and the curb, 1t is not likely to be
crushed, as is bicycle.
For these obvious reasons cyclists
should regard the rule Of passing to
the left when overtaking another cycle
or wagon as one of the most import
ant rules of the road. 1t is more i'm
portant than the rule of passing to the
right when meeting, because then both
parties can see what the other is doing.
This is a rule that is constantly vio-
lated by cyclists and results in many
catastrophes.
A new ordinance has been recently
introduced in the city council of Sioux
Falls, s. D., which imposes a sidewalk
license of 81 per year on each bicycle.
Evidence of the license having been
paid must be attached to the handle
bar of each bicycle in the shape of a
tag, and anyone riding a bicycle to
which a tag is not attached may be ar

The New York Times SAYS:

THE story that General Pho Del Pillar,
the best all-arOund fighter in AgunaldOs
army, is looking for a chance to desert
and join our forces is of more than pass
ing interest. In report to General Mer-
ritt, made in August last Major Bell. of
the engineers. described Del Pillar as "a
vicious. uneducated ignoramus, and high
way robber.' General Otis can't trust such
a person with a command, or even with
a gun"
If not why not? If since August the
mass Of Fflipinos have changed from
gentle, intelligent, affectionate patriots"
into savages. brigands, and rebellious cut
threats, why, during the same period
should not one Filipino have changed from
a vicious, uneducated ignoramus and
highway robber into desirable comrade
at arms for the Americans? 1t should be
remembered that according to the Impe-
ralistic organs, conditions in the Philip
pines are capable of working miraculous
changes almost in human nature and
character.

was presented by Mr.. Corliss, ana en-
bodies the report previously made by
Harry Tucker. Several documents OF the
Fifty-nfth Congress also referred to the
subject.
The Congressional Record also contains

Of Virginia, made in the House of Repre-

favor of the election of senator's by the
people The Hon. william Jennings
Bryan, while a member of the House OF
Representatives, made a speech taxing
ground In favor of the proposed cnange
in the United States Constitution.
In the speech of Mr. Jones II Is stated
that resolutions proposing change In the
Constitution had been adopted repeatedly
by the United States House Of Represen-
tatiyes. All Of the present members OF
the House from Virginia are on recoru
as believing that the change Is desirable

printed in the Dispatch of March 18th

be held In Richmond on May 1lth.

Meeting With Favor.
Clarke Courier.)

The press of Virginia, with but few
exceptions, is accepting very favorably
the initial movement Of a number OF
prominent Democrats for a conference
TO be held in Richmond on the llth OF
May for the purpose of considering some
plan by which the will Of the people may
be expressed in the choice of United
States senator's. One of the causes con-
tributing to the growth of this sentiment
has been the indifference shown by the
Senate to the vote of the House of Repre-
sentatives on this question, and another
is the more common practice of resort
ing to debauching methods to secure
these Offices
We do not know that this conference
will undertake to set in motion plan
for taking the sense Of the people as 10
the Senator to be. chosen by the next
Legislature. but it WILL 1t is hoped, take
positive ground in favor of putting into
execution such a plan for the choice of
these representatives, thereafter, and
doubtless resolve that our Legislature
should ask our representatives in both
houses of Congress TO vote for con-
stitutional amendment giving the people
the right to vote directly for senators.
As this is a call outside Of our party
machinery, and we do not know that it
can be used for taking steps 10 have our
county represented at this conference.
we suggest that at the May term OF our
County Court, which will open on the
2d of said month, such Democrats as
may be in attendance organize meeting
and select several representative men to
attend the Richmond conference. We
will be glad TO hear from some Of our
readers on this subject

the demand for them the press has a

Another fad OF the Dispatch Is to

Professor Edward c. Pickering, director
of the Harvard Observatory, notes the
discovery, by his brother William, Of a
new and ninth satellite of the planet
Saturn, which adds another to tho
triumphs of photography in the service
of astronomy, the new body having been
found on four plates exposed with the
Bruce telescope at Arequipa, in Peru.
This additional moon of Saturn probably
does not, ii is stated, exceed 300 miles
in diameter, and is so faint that but few
of the great telescopes at present in ex-
istence are powerful enough 10 disclose
it. A contemporary, in referring to the
discovery, says: Japetus, discovered at
the Paris Observatory in 1911 by Domi-
nore Cassini, has hitherto been regarded
as Saturns outermost moon, being at II
distance Of two and quarter millions OF
miles from the planet, and having period
Of 70 Is days. But the new satellite Is
three and one half times more distant
than Japetus, and it consumes almost a
year and a half in going once completely
round Saturn. More than half a century
has elapsed since a new satellite was
added to the Saturnian SYSTEM the
seventh moon, Hyperion, having been
found by Professor W. G. Bond, at Har-
ward, on September 1G. 1913
