How They Can Helm,

If the Spanish war had not occurred
the Fillipinos would still be in slavery.
There would be no congresses held
anywhere on the islands. Aguinaldo
and Agoncillo would be so quiet that
nobody outside of the island would
know their names, and very few in the
islands would be hearing anything
about them. Now that the United
States has freed them, the Filipino
bosses are talking loudly about the in
herent rights OF their race, and are de-
manding that the Americans give
them the independence which thew did
not win, and which they never could
win single-handed. All the home rule
which they show any fitness for will be
granted to the Filipinos just as soon
as peace is thoroughly established in
the Islands. This condition will be
hastened by the Fllipinos ii they quick
ly submit to the United States authorl-
ties. Aguinaldo and his friends have
nothing to gain, but have very much
to lose by obstructing the Americans

About Ohio Politics.

The editor of the Urbana Citizen is
of the opinion that Captain Cappeller,
of the Mansfield News, is unduly eX-
cited about the political situation in
Ohio as shown il his interview with
me at the Neil a few days ago. The
Citizen man says:
We do not understand what Captain
Capeller means by the statement that
we sre to have the greatest battle OF
our history in Ohio during the comina
campaign on the money question
There isn't enough vitality in the free
bubble to make a respectable skirmish
and why the usually level-headed
Mansfield journalist expects a great
marshalling of the free silver forces in
Ohio next year is not clear About
everything predicted by the free sill
verites to result from their system
prosperity, more money and the stim-
ulation of the agricultural interests
has come with the gold standard.
There are great many people in
this state who have Kept their fingers
on the political pulse who believe with
Captain Cappeller, that the free silver
ties will make the last desperate stand
of their lives in the coming Ohio cam
paign. There is abundant evidence of
this. Whoever is nominated by the
Ohio Democrats for Governor will
have the active support of William ]. g.
Bryan, and a notable effort will be
made to wrest the state of President
Mckinley from his support That tn,
scheme will succeed is not believed,
but it Is the part of political wisdom
to sound the alrm when danger threat
ems, and this Captain Cappeller has
done. The settling of the mining scale
has removed one of the features from
the Ohio campaign that the Mansfield
man most feared. He recalls how the
Carnegie strike at Homestead defeated

try was on the very summit of the |

A Statement,
journed
MARIETTA. Ohio, Feb. 1, IS!

Marietta, ONO, FEB. l, 1879.
An impression has somehow gotten
abroad that the Marietta Electric Com
pany was either directly or indirectly
urging the construction of bridge
across the Musklngum to replace the
old one now in use.
AT meeting of the directory, held
this week, it was doomed advisable to
make public its position in the matter,
and in accordance with this, the un-
derslgned were authorized to make the
following declarations: AT the time the
franchises for the East side were OBJ
aimed the gentlemen asking for same,
Nelson Moore, Andrew Gracey and
Iohn Kaiser, agreed to furnish the
West Side with suitable street car ad-
vantages just as soon as proper bridge
facilities were available, and the nee,
essary franchises and rights of way
were, obtained. The Marietta Electric
Company, who succeeded this company
to the rights and privileges granted by
the city, stands ready to carry out the
promises made by its predecessors and
pledges itself to construct, equip and
maintain a street car system on the
West Side in every way equal to that
now enjoyed by the citizens of the
East Side, just as soon as the proper
bridge facilities are furnished and the
rights Of way are granted.
This is all the interest the Marietta
Electric Company has in the bridge
project. The matter of obtaining pro-
per street car facilities for the West
Side is entirely in the hands of the
people.

AguinaIdo's Bluff.

Young Mr. Agoncillo certainly
knows better now than when he came
to this country how much OF a task
Aguinaldo would have if he undertook
to chase the Yankee soldiers out of the
Philippines. If Agoncillo has kept his
eyes open he has simply seen revela-
ton, and if he is truthful he will go
back home and tell his tan-colored
chieftian that the insurgents might as
we'll attempt to swim out at sea and
drag the miserable islands along as to
find profit in a quarrel with the Amer
leans.
Probably Aguinaho knows this with
out any information from Agoncillo,
and perhaps Agoncillo is not in the
United States to make any impression
on the administration at all. There is
a more impressional people here. Thoes
who are timid about going out the
back door after sunset are the people
Agoncillo isafter. IF he can make them
Ihinh Tie ulilpplut lnSuISeilS are do
tall as houses, and with thirst that
blood alone can appease, he will have
done his work. If the United States
could be frightened into repudiating
the peace treaty Agoncillo would have
his ambition far easier of accomplish
ment. Should the treaty fail, and the
government be forced by the faint
hearts to make overtures to Spain per-
hitting her to retain the Philippines,
1.guinaldo knows that Spain in her
weakened condition could never whip
him into submission. If a loud cry of
alarm will frighten the United States
away from Manila there is nothing for
him to do but put on his gold collar
and play his gold whistle every day in
the year until his people are tired of
it. Aguinaldo has magnified the in
huence of the men afraid in the dark.
When the treaty is ratified he will be
more docile.-Pittsburg Times.

tricity, as well as hand power. There
would be slx-foot sidewalk on each

purpose of erecting a new bridge, the

election to be held on the ,hird day of

MYSTERY OF THE HANDSPRING.
Some Breakages Not Yet Understood
 Despite Much Investigation.

Despite the investigations regarding the structure of mainsprings and the efforts to improve them, despite the experimentation and theorizing on the subject, some of the causes of the breaking of mainsprings remain an up- solved mystery. Many, indeed, are the known causes responsible for breaking. such as faulty construction or tenn pering, careless handling, leading to the formation of rust and poor fitting, but after all these which are recognized have been eliminated there still re- mains the fact we'll known to watch makers that the best springs will, ln spite of the most careful handling and proper adjustment, unexpectedly break, sometimes in a number of places. It will thus happen that of two springs made at the same time by the same process, of the same material tenn pered in the same way and handled with the same care, one may last for years, while the other may break after two weeks use, or even while being placed in the barrel. When it is con- sldered that the spring is but from .008 to .009 of an inch in thickness; that the material must be subjected to a process which shall give it high state of elasticity, and at the same time enable it to do it's prescribed work foI years, slight molecular disarrange- ment in its structure may be expected to occur from causes too insignificant for observation. Many jewellers state that it is their experience that they have many more mainsprings to repair after warm, humid day than at any other time. Others believe the break ing to be due to electric disturbances, stating that after an electrical storm they find that many of their custom CTS bring their watches to them for repair. The sudden cooling and con- sequent contraction of the tightly wound handspring, caused by the re- moyal of the watch from the body on a cool night following a warm day, is believed by some to account, in meas ure, for the accidents mentioned. So far, however, no entirely satisfactory explanation has been suggested. The only conclusion to be drawn from the acknowledged facts of the case is that it is not safe for the watenmaker to infer. merely from the breaking of a handspring, that it Is of an inferior grade, nor for his customer to believe the watchmaker deficient in skill be- cause the handspring of his time piece has snapped shortly after being replaced.
