Sulzer declaring, in the same place,
on the same sacred day, with all of
his accustomed solemnity, that the
income tax plank was omitted by
design, while simultaneously Mr.
Bryan himself, being asked to ac-
count for its absence, simply but
pointedly replied: You will have to
see Senator Jones'" Apparently
Senator Jones was not visible, but
we hope he will be seen sooner or
later and the mystery cleared up.
In the meantime we hazard the
conjecture that if David BENEFIT Hill
were skilfully approached he might
be willing to acknowledge, not neces-
sarily for publication but as a guaran-
tee of good faith, that he was not ut
terly astounded to find on looking
over the Kansas City platform that
the income tax plank had been mad
vertently omitted.

Lost, Strayed or Stolen.

Since the adjournment of the Kan
sas City Convention the interesting
discovery has been made that the ex-
pected income tax plank is missing
from tie platform. The creed of 1896
is reafIirmed, asCeverybody knows,
but there is no specific mention of
the issue on which the Democratic
party was exceedingly warm four
years ago. 1t is a clear case of lost,
strayed or stolen, with some definite
committals already to each of these
hypothesis and others in prospect.
George Fred Williams says positively
that an income tax plank was framed
but that, in doubt of its being strong
enough to stand the strain, it was
marked for repairs, and then unfor-
tunately forgotten. This explana-
ton was vouchsafed by George Fred
on Sunday in Lincoln, Neb., hitherto
considered to be the centre of inspir-
alton and infallibility. But it is ex-
tremely perplexing to find our own

The BRYAN of 1900.

The Bryan of 1900 is not the new
toy and pet of a convention and the
experiment of a party; he is the abso-
lutte master of the convention and the
party. He is the scourge of the timid
and of the time-servers. He has
forced together into effective cooper
alton all the factions and elements
sharing in a general way his convic-
tions. There are nominal distinc
tions of organization, but all are
thoroughly Organized now-Demo-
Gratis, Populists, Silver Republicans
and Bryan stands at the head of a
united and devoted following, with
none to oppose his will or to question
his authority.
Because he has been steadfast, con-
sistent and bold, silver at 16 to rules
the party again as it did four years
ago. The foremost issue is unchanged.
The great change will be in the per-
Sonal estimate of Bryan's strength
and seriousness of purpose and sta
bility of mind. He has fairly won
the respect of his opponents, SO far as
it can be commanded by sincerity
persistency and courage in vicious

Tillnan And The Platform.

The man who read the platform at
Kansas City was Senator Tillman, of
South Carolina, and the man and the
cause were we'll mated. How some of
his hearers must have inwardly
smiled when he was reading this
plank: I'VE declare again that all
government instituted among men
derive their just powers from the
consent of the governed; that any
government not based upon the con-
sent of the governed is a tyranny;
and that to impose upon any people
a government of force is to substitute
the methods of imperialism for those
of a repubIic?'
A few extracts from speech Of
Senator Tillman contrast strikingly
with this pronouncement, namely
South Carolina has disfranchised
all of the colored race that it could
under the Thirteenth, Fourteenth
and Fifteenth amendments. We
have done our level BEST we have
scratched our heads to find out how
we could eliminate the last one of
them.-Con. Rec, February 26, 1900
p. 2346.
We have governing race, just as
you would have in Massachusetts if
you had $50, 900 negroes and only 500
600 white men.-Con. Rec, p. 1868.
We stuffed ballot-boxes. We shot
them. We are not ashamed of it,
Con. Rec. D. 2349
We called a constitutional conven-
tion and we eliminated, as said, all
of the colored people whom we could.
Con. Rec, p. 2349.
How delightfully."- consistent it is for
Senator Tillman and his political
brethren to hunt a lightning express
route whereby all the inhabitants of
Porto Rico may become full-hedged
citizens of this country, with right
to vote which will last only until
some one may teach the perncious
doctrine of stuffing ballot boxes,
shooting down suffragists and not
being ashamed of it! Nay, it is far
J better to withhold the extension ofthe

Economic value of Good Roads.


There is food for thought in the
report of the Maryland Geological
Survey for 1899. In the first place
we are told that the people of Mary
land have expended, during the last
ten years, upon the so-called con-
struction and repair of their own
roads, the sum of no less than $6,000,-
900. 1t seems that the greater part
of this money has been FILTERED away
in the attempt to repair roads which
have been poorly laid out in the first
place, and for the lack of certain
necessary engineering qualifications
can, in the nature of things, never be
made into good roads. AS an in
stance of this it may be mentioned
that many of the common roads have
no natural drainage. We are told
that most of them are in poor con-
dition for a part of the year, and
some of them for the whole twelve
months.
As the result of careful estimate
made by the survey. it is shown that
the farmers of the State of Maryland
expend $4,000, 900 a year more on their
hauling over the present poorly built
highways than would be necessary if
the hauling were done on frst-class
roads. These figures are to be COM
pared with the information collected
by the Department of Agriculture in
1895, when, as the result of data re-
counties in various parts of the Uni
ted States, it was ascertained that
the average cost of hauling one ton
for one mile over country roads was
twenty-five cents; which was just
three times as much as the average
cost of hauling over the improved
macadam roads of six European coun-
tries. If this large sum of money rep
resents the loss to the State of Mary
land from poor roads, it is easy to say
that the total loss throughout the
whole United States represents fig
ure so great that it must have an i'm
portant bearing upon the prosperity
of the country at large, and particu-
larly upon the farming interests as
such.
At first sight it seems incredible
that in a country so progressive as
ours the condition of the common
roads should be over a half century
behind that of the old world. 1t is
true that the vast extent of the Uni
ted States, and the great mileage of
our roads in some States relative to
the density of the population, may
be offered as an excuse for our back
wardness; but while this plea may
hold good as regards the thinly pop
ulated Western and Southern States
it cannot be applied to the older,
more populous and wealthy sections
of the country.-Scientific American.
