 THE trial disturbance. Not CALAMITY that he wants to help
 HOWLER. the sufferers, or show
 sympathy for them, but to find a spacious argument against re- publican prosperity and bolster up his contention that there can be no gen uine prosperity till he is president and the gold standard abolished.
 Strikes in democratic times were against reduction of wages; In repub- lican times they are for further ad- vance in wages. But, anyway, they show discomfort and whoever is dis contented may be open to popullst ar gument. With i'll concealed delight the Boy Orator in a recent speech said that a strike was threatened in the anthracite coal region; 1t has since become a stern reality; he further said that there had been a decline in the production of pig iron from the high
 
 failures in August. 1900, than in Au- gust, 1899; that some Massachusetts cotton mill men are said to be thinking of reducing wages; and that a man in of employees. Having emptied out his budget of bad news he said exultantly that ''even the prosperity that the re- publican party has boasted of has not reached all the people and even that which we have is on the decline"
 The populist candidate never tells the people that the country is more pros porous than it was in 1893 and the years immediately succeeding. He will not admit that times have been worse than they are now. His object is to show, in spite of the most palpable and re- markable evidence to the contrary, that there is little prosperity now and that there will be less soon. That is why he collects and repeats al the hard times items he cal find. He has as good scent for them as a. vuIture for carrion. And yet, after securing the country from ocean to ocean, he has to expatiate on threatened strike and a possible wage redu 3tion. The coun- try must be generally prosperous If the microscopic eye of MT. Bryan can de- tect so few bad spots. But he does not fail to gloat over the few he does dis cover and to assure his hearers that a day of wrath is near at hand which they can escape from only by making him president.

Four years ago MT. Bryan advised voters to take republican money, put it in their pockets and then vC.e against the republicans-which shows what a high standard of political eth ics, what a lofty opinion of his fellow citizens honor. and what a just view of his political opponents are held by w. J. Bryan. The same man was i"- strumental in ratifying the treaty with Spain which he is now trying to violate. He prates of political liberty and purity. yet he stood by Goe5el and Goebelism In Kentucky.

A correspondent, writing to the Fault Finder, says: Why is it that the gar dener at the capitol grounds will lay himself liable for a large bill Of dam ages by attaching d white cotton rope, that cant be seen, to two trees at the entrance of the grounds, at just the right height to pull a man off his wheel by the neck? He has one at the east and west, and nothing to cause one to see it until he is obliged to-
 
 This objection is not inopportune. I have personal knowledge of the matter of which the correspondent complains, only did not know whose ingenuity had planned the deadfall. I had occa- sion to go to the capitol building the other day l was proceeding on my wheel at gait of something less than q mile minute when I saw that dead line foot from my nose. Two courses were left open to me, and both were fraught with danger to life or limb. One was to fall from my wheel and the other was to try to duck" under the line, a difficult thing to do. But any thing was better than decapitatiOn. escaped miraculously.
 
 l inquired why this trap was spread for the unsuspecting. l was told that the object was to keep people from driving upon the thOroughfara which runs thrOuhg the grounds. It certainly serves that purpose. But I know bet ter way than that. There are dense bushes and hedges at the entrance of the grounds, admirable places for am bush and cOIcGalD1anT Wnu16 f ha better to let good marksman lie there, armed with an unerring rifle, and let him put a bullet through the brain of every man who tries to drive into the grounds? Death would be absolutely painless and the agony which attends the present method of execution would be happily avoided.

 My correspondent further observes: Don't you think that when the city dads are hiring men to act as drivers on the sprinkling carts that they might just as well pick out men that nature has favored with a little grey matter as well as to select ones that have none? If you want to get some idea as to the lack of matter just get on your wheel and try to ride on any of the streets in town. Wheelmen are cer- tainIy entitled to some consideration, and there should always be path left on the street for them
 I have frequently said what l think about the present system of street sprinkling but I have not received that encouragement which should be con- veyed in a change for the better. 1 now pass the whole subject up to the | correspondent and stand ready to print whatever he may say to the detriment Of the street sprinkling bureau.

He recommends the con tinuance of his office only long enough to close up business. One of the state duty says that he Is convinced the city is wrecked for all time. Nevertheless, later reports speak In a more confident and encouraging tone. Galveston has the only harbor of much commercial value on that part of the gulf coast.

From the Scientific American We
learn that the total eclipse Of the
Sun on May 2Sth, instead OF pas
sing over the sparsely settled re-
gions OF the world, will cross the
states of Louisiana, Mississippi,
Alabama, Georgia, South and North
Carolina, and will even touch Vir-
ginia. The tract Of totaIity begins
on the Pacific ocean just west Of
Mexico, enters the United States
neor New Orleans and passes in a
norteasterly direction until it reaches
the seS at Norfolk and Cape Henry.
Its path then crosses the Atlantic
and touches Portugal, Algiers and
North A frica, and will terminate neal
the north end Of the Red sea. The
elipse will last one minute and
twelve seconds near New Orleans
and one minute and forty seconds
ne,r Norfolk.
