Non.Partisan COLLAPSE in OHIO.

The non-partlsan movement, which
had its inception with Golden Rule"
Sam Jones, of Toledo last fall, when he
was an independent candidate for gov
ernor against Nash and Mclean, made
very poor showing in the recent city
elections in that state. Last fall Jones
carried Cleveland by large majority.
There was u great deal Of unrest in la
Dor circles at that time, and the novelty
OF Jones candidacy attracted many vo-
ters, but the movement had nothing Of
substantial character connected with
It, and when 1t ceased to be novelty
Its attractiveness also passed away.
Last week Cleveland reversed itself,
giving Republican majorities of 10000,
the collapse of the non-partisan move
ment being complete.
The Leader. in commenting on the
result, says that the collapse was
greater than was Indicated by the vote
for school officers. 1t says that while
one candidate was credited with some
thing more than $500 than were cast by
believers in the mon partisan" idea,
"the official count of the vote at thu
recent election shows that the average
vote of the "non-partisan candidates
was about $500. This is a trlhe larger
than was the Populist vote in recent
elections prior to the Bryan campaign
when that party lost Its identity.
"Had there not been a protest against
McLeans bossism among Democrats,
and had there been no factionai desire
for revenge because of the nomination.
of Judge Nash as the Republican can
dIdate for governor. the non-partisan"
movement last fall would not have at
tanned the proportions it did.
There is a certain element among
the voters always ready to go against
the candidates OF the old parties. That
element largely composed the Popul!sJ
party. 1t was also the nucleus Of the
mon partisan" movement. 1t can never
be depended upon, however, and all at
tampts to break down the old parties
no matter by whom Leu, are sure to re-
suit in failure until new party is
formed with ideals high enough to at
tract voters away from their old afFili-
atlons. Men like Sam Jones may APP
pea! to the voters love of novelty Tor
a time, but that is all their efforts will
amount to-"

Results Of orer.cnpitnlizntion.

The New York Journal of Commerc.
recently gave the results OF a years ex-
perence with thirty-two Industrial
combinations. It was stated that in
nearly every case there was large is
sue OF common stock as bonus to buy
ers of preferred stock. The ratio varied
to some extent. but in the greater num-
Der of cases 100 shares of common was
Issued with 100 shares OF preferred
stock. After the lapse Of year the
market value OF the common stock add
ed to the preferred would not bring the
latter to par in thirteen cases: in one
case 1t would Just bring 1t to par, and
in eighteen cases the value Of the COM
mon added to the preferred would carry
the latter above par to an extent whlcG,
averaging the eighteen, would amount
to 2l-14 per cent.
zone OF the leading inducements
says the Journal, for forming these
combinations is the possibility of real
king a large bonus on the sale Of stock.
The owners OF the original concerns
kept the greater part OF the preferred
stock, and whatever they could sell
their common stock for was often i
clear addition to their wealth effected
by the consolidation and the methods
Of financing 1t. The ostensible grounds
Of combination were the economies Of
a single management. but in nearly
every case where consolidation on
this basis has been attempted 1t has
failed; the owners Of the concerns were
not induced by this margin of economy
to give up their Individual existence.
But when there was prospect Of cap
Itallzlng the concerns for an amount
Of preferred stock which represented
an extremely liberal estimate OF the
value Of the business and an additional
issue OF common stock In most cases
to the same amount as the preferred,
the prospect was fascinating, II we

OF New York, Fitzgerald and Rupert,
were very pronounced in their state

Mr.. Fitzgerald declared that 1t was

sent out from the headquarters Of the
Democratic national committee calling
the Gold Democrats hard names, and
insisting that the Chicago platform
should be reaHirmed in the state and

REFLECTIONS or A BAoHELoR

A successful bachelor girl" is an un-
successful sweetheart.
Every woman has her moments Of
weakness when she really thinks.
A woman is either hopelessly mascu-
line OF else she is hopelessly fond Of
some man.
The main difference between a man
and Z woman is that mans feet are
always smaller than his shoes.
When men are together they lie most
as much about the cold baths they take
as women do to each other about the
tender way their husbands treat them
when they are all alone.-New York

Paris, Oct. 9.-The officials Of the
French foreign office are elated over
the reception which Frances note has
secured In Europe and they are very
hopeful and sanguine that 1t will re-
suit in n common understanding which
will permit Of early peace negotiations.
France. however, has not yet received
the formal reply of any power. but the
verbal statements maas by the various
ambassadors on the presentation Of the
note lead the government to believe It
will be accepted everywhere except In
Great Britain and the United States.
These powers agree to certain features
while objecting to others. but do not
take n stand which is inimicnl, gener-
ally to the proposition Of NJ. Delcasse

OFFERED A REWARD
FOR SOLDIERS EARS

New York, Oct 1O-Out OF the Phil
ippines has come n tale Of n maddened
fathers revenge FOR the death OF his son,
which reads like the barbaric stories
OF the days OF Morgan and his buc-
cancers. The story Is brought back by
Serceants Ross /. Barton and John
Zimmerman of the Forty-seventh vol
unieer infantry. who recently returned
TO their homes in Whifestone, Long Isl
and
According to their narrative, while
their regiment was fighting with the
Filipinos at -Albay. Sergeant Fowler.
also of Whitestone. shot and killed a
handsome young Filipino lieutenant
named Marcus. and captured his
sword.
Lieutenant Marcus was a son OF Mar.
celine Marcus. wealthy Filipino, who
Is known all over the island, and who
had hitherto been friendly to the Amer
leans. although his son bitterly opposed
them
His sons death, however. reused the
old man to pitch of the greatest fury,
and he swore that he would spend ev-
cry dollar that he owned to revenge his
boy, despite the fact that his boy was
killed In fair fight.
Marceline Marcus accordingly raised
a troop of 5000 native followers and
offered reward Of 500 for every left
ear OF the men OF the Forty seventh
regiment. This offer at once brought
forth fruit
Every American thereafter killed
would have his left ear missing Many
Chinese and light colored Filipinos al
30 lost their left ears.
Marcus is now said to be treasuring
a string of over 100 ears. not more than
five of which has been cut from men,
bers Of the Forty-seventh regiment.
