4 Curious Interpretation.

Ex-senator w. v. Allen, according
to newspaper interviews, does not re-
gard the Nebraska election as a defeat
for the populist party, but purely and
simply a setback for the democratic
party. The ey senator, however, does
not disclose the mental processes by
which he arrives at this conclusion,
and his reticence on this phase of the
matter is prudent. The broad fact is,
of course, that the election is IA tre-
mendous defeat both for the populists
and democrats of Nebraska. They
were unitad; they were fused; they
made common cause; they supported
the same ticket as ~tusionists. AS flu
sionists they were signally defeated by
the republicans.
But an even more singular expires,
sion of belief on the part of the Q X
senator, that the Nebraska populists
while supporting separate and antag'
onistic national tickets will next year
fuse on state aud local tickets. II
would thus appear that fusion or anti
! fusion is a matter of principle sc
far as the populists are concerned.
Or is it possible that this is the ex
senator's Interpretation of Mr.. Bryan
design for the coming year, wherein
he will himself be found within the re
organized democracy? He may reason
that he would thus be able to lead

lation of politics down to the sewing
on OF buttons.

last 100 years be any indication, no
strained Imagination is required to

be as common as cabs are now, that
books and newspapers will be super
seeded by machines Of the telephone
and photographic species, and that

It is to be supposed that it will be a
world in which everything will be so
perfectly ordered that it will run like
a well-oiled machine.
There will, of course be no poverty
