AGE OF THE AUTOMOBILE. -
There is a general impression,
believe" said a middle aged bus
mess man OF this city, that the
automobile is a recent invention
and that the first machines ever
put into practical service date back
only a few years. That is a mis-
take. AS far back as 1860, and
maybe Tor a year or two before, an
automobile was to be seen fre-
quentlY on the pike between Wash
inPton and Harper's Ferry. l often
had business taking me on horse
back between those points at that
period, and | will never forget my
amaZement the first time ever
saw the machine. Il was built on
the general model OF a heavy drag,
and the steam engine that supplied
the power was located in the front
part, with a drivers seat IN the
rear. The machinery was inclosed
in sheet iron case and was con-
trolled by three or four levers,
which protruded through slits in
the top. | soon scraped an ac-
quaintance with the inventor, who
was an elderly gentleman named
Schrader, and found him a most
interesting character. He had been
a captain OF engineers in the Aus
trian army, but retired on a small
fortune and came TO America to
live, The construction Of the au-
tomobile had been a matter Of
diversion with him, and he told me
he had been studying the problem
tor 10 or IL years. When we be-
came better acquainted he showed
me the working parts, and, while
am no mechanic, l remember
that the apparatus impressed me
as being remarkably simple. lam
not certain what he used for fuel,
but to the best Of my recollection
it vas petroleum. The engine was
connected with the rear wheels by
a system Of cogs, and the front
wheels were used for steering. The
water for the boiler was carried IN
a tank under the seat. l think
thatthe machine was, on the whole,
successful. The war came on
shortly aiterward and | lost sight
OF the old gentleman, never to see
him again. l heard, at the con-
clusion Of peace, that he had en-
tered the Union service in some
clerical capacity and died at Wash
ington. What became Of mis- queer
automobile | don't know. ."-NEaV

NO MONEY TO BUY VOTES.

Undoubtedly Democratic man
ayers have been as guilty as Re-
publicans in this horrible traffic,
but as it happened this time the
Democrats had no money to buy
votes. Their campaign commit
tees from one end of the country
to the other were literally riding
under bare poles. From Mr., Jones,
chairman OF the National Com nit
tee, down so slender was the ex-
chequer that they were compelled
TO practice the most rigid economy
in every item Of expenditure. They
could not even have all the print
ing done which they would have
liked.
1t is said that the contribution ons
which came to the National Dem.
ocratic Committee did not in all
exceed Saoo, 900, while the stream
which flowed into the Golfers OF
the Republican Committee agpre-
gated SIS 900, 900. What may be
styled Legitimate expenses could
not possibly have absorbed more
than half a million OF this sum.
Just think OF the golden shower
which was left to rain down on the
heads Of the venal voters, and how
sickenIng it is to claim the people
have endorsed the Administration!
The dollars which the trusts
threw into the lap OF the Republi.
can Committee came thicker than
doughnuts. So much OF the treas
ure is left that the National Com
mit,ee and the Maryland and other
State committees propose to keep
open house inthe entire four years
interval between now and the next
Preside 1tial election.

BOSS RIDDEN STATES.

The tortuous ways Of Maryland
politics are, OF course, not much
better and not much worse than
the politics Of other States ruled
by bosses who think Of themselves
only. You will recall that grave
doubts were expressed during the
campaign OF the sincerity oil Rich
ard CToker's professed devotion to
BRYAN. had that doubt myself,
and it is now scarcely less than a
conviction. Everything tends to
confirm the belief that, as usual,
there was a deal between Croker
and Plat, and each Of them knew
what he was about.
must tell you what l heard
down in Wall Street in the later
days OF the campaign and from
men who professed to have a share
in the transaction. Ii was said
that a month or two before the
Kansas City Convention a fund
was raised, variouslY estimated at
from $500, 900 to 81, 900, 900, for the
purpose Of securing the insertion
Of a silver plank in the Kansas City
platform. The silver plank was
put in, and, as a matter of history.
by one majority only, David b.
Hill was most anxious to be a
member of the committee on reso-
lutionS. Mr.. Croker would not
Washington sentinel., 1900-12-01

permit this, but put/on the COM
mittee from New York one OF his
own men, who voted Tor silver. Ii
MIR. Hill had been on that commit
tee silver would have been left out.
SENATOR DANIELS ATTITUDE.
Senator Daniel, OF Virginia, an
intense silver man, earnestly ques-
toned the expediencY OF reattlrm-
ing the silver clause ot 1896. Other
Southern men on that committee
sided with him. Colonel Baugh-
man, Of Maryland, made an elo-
ouent and passionate appeal
against it. 1t has been said the
vote Of Prince David, Of Hawaii,
put in silver. 1t might just as well
be said the vote OF any other mem-
Der oil the majority determined It.
Certainly but for Mr., Croker's man
it could not have carried.
The Wall Street man told me
Croker got the money which was
raised, and whether he divided
with anyone else was neither
known nor cared. AS Mr.. Croker
is on record as saying he is in pol
irics Tor his pocket, everyone is at
liberty to draw his own interenceS
WHERE TRICKERY RAN RIOT.
To return to the question Of the
systematic bribery Of voters every
where, so graphically dilated upon
in the SIN edhorially, l will tell
you in what Safes it ran riot on
election day, outside OF Maryland:
In West Virginia, in Ohio, in In
diana, in Illinois, IN Kansas, in
Nebraska, in South Dakota and IN
New York. There were others, oi
course, where bribery was more or
less largely resorted to, but it was
most glaring in the States named.
1t may be a surprise to people gen.
orally to hear this about"up-State
in New York. But the practice is
carried on IN so bold and unblush-
ing a manner that the bargains are
made in sight and hearing OF all
those around. tits no uncommon
spectacle 10 see an old farmer in
Western New York drive up to the
polls with his son or sons, holding
the reins over a pair OF horses
which belong to him, getting out
and negotiating with the vote
buyer Tor the votes OF himself and
his boys. For this statement l
have the authority OF one of the
most eminent citizens OF Buffalo.
Whatever may be said Of Mr.,
Bryan's doctrines and Of his utter
ances, there is this which must be
said in his favor: Not one of the
millions OF votes cast for him rep
resented bargain and sale.

LUMBER CONDITIONS.

Millmen In this city report that the pas.
week has shown considerable improvements
in the demand for lumber.
The effect Of the readjustment OF prices
which was effected al the Lake Charles
meeting of manufacturers last week seems
to have been good and has caused the
dealers to believe that prices are more
firmly fixed and that there Is no posi-
bllity of further reduction as a result ot
which they are buying more freely than
heretofore. The strikes in several of the
leading cltis the past two weeks had the
effect OF rducing the amount OF lumber
shipped TO these places. Wood working
o. all lsindsh as been Suspended and until
the labor troubles have been adjusted il
is probable that very little lumber Will De
shipped 20 these cities.
Many OF the small mills along the Peesee
and Others up the country mills are com
planning Of lack of orders and some OF
them have been compelled to close down
on this account This condition OF affairs
there Is accounted for by the fact that
these mills have been supported the past
few months almost entirely by the de-
mand from the larger concerns, whlch
have given to these small mills all their
overflow orders, and the slack IN the de-
mand has necessNated the cutting off OF
the overflow demand. This has resulted In
these mills being without business be-
cause they have not an established trade
and can not secure 1t on short notice
II Is expected now that the whole lumber
business will improve geserally as a result
of the firmly fixed prices from which 1t is
believed there Will be deviation.
