PLAYED DEAF MUTE.

A Tribune representative yester-
day met traveller, now a resident
of Galveston, who has had an IN
usual experience. Last summer he
desired months genuine rest and
recreation. He had that tired feel
ing and wanted to be let alone So
he iourneyed to a summer resort
where his identity was unknown
and gave his host and all others to
understand that he was deaf and
dumb mute. His ruse worked like a
charm. He was let alone by his
fellow guests, while the hotel peo-
pie pampered him and specially
INDUCED him. No one ever spoke to
him except in the sign language,
and no one ever noticed him ex-
eept to say as he approached,
"Well here comes our dummy"
IF you love solitude and wish to
think much and say nothing, just
try my plan this summer" the
GENTLEMAN recommends. "Be sure
you select a safe retreat where no
big-nouthed drummer will clap
you on the back and boiler, Hello,
Bill"

pany, as agents, called the New Era
steel grader, especially intended for
railroad and irrigation canal build
ing. 1t is claimed by the manufac-
turers that this machine will handle,
at a minimum, 1000 yards of earth
per day, requiring the employment
of three men and six teams. To per-
form the same work with scrapers
would require twenty-five teams
ind twenty-five men, at n cost at
least four times as great. Four Of
these machines lately by the Mex
leo Mine Smelter Supply Company,
and now engaged on construction
work in Coahuila, have handled as
high as 1900 cubic yards of earth
each per day, largely exceeding the
manufacturers claim. Much in
terest has been aroused among rail
road contractors with regard to this
grader, and many inquiries are be-
ing received by the agents.-Mex-

A NEW GRADER

provement of lines already in
operation, is proceeding with great
rapidly in ali parts of Mexico. and
at the present rate of progress Mex

feverish activity in road-building
makes imperative the adoption of

only be accomplished by the use of

INCREASE OF BRIBERY.
The Nation.


That the crime of bribery, cleo
toral and legislative, is on the in
crease in this country, we have an
accumulation of painfully convinc-
ing evidence. One deep of shame
answereth unto another-Rhode
Island to Delaware, Albany to
Harrisburg, St. Louis to New York.
Men whose right hands are full of
brides sit in the high places of gov
eminent, go abou! the streets with
heads erect, are in good repute in
society and often in the church.
Yet they are confessedly making
the very pillars of our public life
rotten. Popular elections they are
turning into merchandise, and rem
dering the so-called twill of the

thing for corruptionists to sneer at
even while they manipulate their

much?

FIFTY EIGHTH CONGRESS.

The fifty eighth congress is in

proclamation of the president calling
she members together for the purpose
OF taking action on the Cuban
reciprocity treaty. What the result
will be Is problematical II is not
likely much will be- done outside of
considering this question, although a
fiood of bills have already been in
trodueed. The confirmation of Smith
Wooley as assayer of the Boise office
is to be contested by Senator Dubois
aud it is said that the senator is pre-
apring to make a fight against Senator
Smoot of Utah whose election has
created vast amount Of comment on
account Of his being one Of the twelve
apostles OF the Mormon church.
Dubois fighting qualities are we'll
known, and it is safe to say that if
ne starts in on these two propositions
there will be something doing around
the national capital until they are
anally disposed Of.

The persistent rumors that Senator
Hanna would accept the nomination
for president and HE statement that
he does not care to accept the chair
manship of the national committee
for another term are causing a pain
full uneasinsss at the White House.
President Roosevelt evidently is very
anxious to place the wiley senator
where he cannot consistently become
a candidate, and with that end In
view, has had a conference With him
at which he was urged to consent to
take the management Of the coming
campaign; bat the senator has not
made up his mind TO do 80. The
fact is that the leaders Of the party
prefer Senator Hanna for their
nominee, but Roosevelt has gained
popularity among certain classes that
causes doubt in their ability to turn
him down In the National conven-
ton. They may conclude that the
best way out Of the dilemma will be
TO give the president the nomination
and let him go down to defeat If the
democra Ia put up a conservative and
safe candidate. There are many
things about Roosevelt to admire
and it is these very characteristics
that make him unpopular with the
men who control the republican
party. Some Of them would prefer
to see him defeated, IL nominated,
and these men are undoubtedly
behind the rumors regarding Senator
Hanna.

\ consignment of $4,000 steel
head trout arrived from the Bozeman.
Montana, hatchery Thursday morning
and we're turned loose in the lake at
the Northern Pacific dock. Last
year about -, 900 of the same variety
were planted here, together with
several thousand brook trout, which
were put into Wolf Lodge creek.
The government Is unable to supply
the demand for young fish and is
compelled to limit the supply TO a
few Thousand to each applicant. The
steel head trout Is very gamy fish,
inhabits deep water and rises freely
to fly at most seasons Of the year.
The young fry will begin spawning
in about four years and from that
time they must increase rapidly a.
they are prolific and very hardy

Because May Goelet, the wealthiest
young lady in the United States,
welded foreign sprig of nobility,
who is probably marrying the money
rather than the girl, a bowling,
insane mass OF ten Thousand people,
mostly women, surged around the
street in front of the church to sec
the bride and groom as they passed
out. The whole performance Is
uauseating to every true American.
II il the fashion for wealthy American
women to sell themselves for foreign
title and the dukes and counts
measure the value Of their purchase
in dollars and cents. Il is a question
in our minds whether the women, in
such cases, do not morally sell their
honor for the title, although the
marriage il legal one. And it is
disgusting to see so many people
fighting each other in the streets for
the purpose OF seeing the hippodrome
pass by. We're the two classes--the
seekers after nobility and those who
truckle at their feet - left to them
selves, it would be but short time
until this republic would become a
monarchy; but the conservative
masses, the people who are depended
upon to perpetuate our free institu.
tions, are in the great majority and
will hold things level in the face OF
the tendency to seek and ape after
the snobOcracy of Europe. The
Goelet affair in New York was actual
ly disgraceful and disgusting.

THE NEw YORK ELECTION.

Edward VI. Grout, reelected as
controller of New York City, made
a statement on the night of the cleo
tion which fully confirms an impress
ion gained by close readers that the
contest, though nominally between
fusionists aud the Democracy, was
actually straight party contest.
Mr.. Grout made the statement at his
rooms while receiving the congratula-
tions of his friends and hearing them
predict that he would be the next
Democratic candidate for governor Of
the state. The Herald, reporting his
utterances, says;
Mr. Grout said hs never had a
doubt a. to the result Of the election
when the lines were drawn that ex
PEELED him from the Republican
ticket
when party lines are drawn in
this city said he, 'and all the
Republicans are on one side and all
the Democrats are on the other, as
has been the csae in this campaign,
Democratic success is assured from
the start. Those who pledged them
selves two years ago to non partisan
municipal administration made a
fatal mistake in Republicauizing the
movement this year. -
Grout is a democrat who two years
ago ran on the fusion ticket. when
there was much disaffection in the
Democratic party. This year the
Democrats were practically united
and the result shows that the big city
is in the Democratic column by big
majority, so great that it places the
state in the doubtful column, if it
may not be counted for the Demo
crazy. \ majority Of 1900, in
Guiding the city of Brooklyn, means
vote that will be hard to overcome.
The result certainly lessons Republi
can prospects Of an easy victory in
the next national campaign. A year
ago it was conceded that President
Roosevelt had walkover in the CON
test, but time brings changes aud il
now looks as though he would have a
hard fight for election if he is not de
feated for the nomination

The troubles Of the st. Joe rancher
are many and come frequently. Last
time it was the closing Of public
road by a neighbor. This time ii is
a grievance against the forward
march of commerce. The boats are
running so fast in the river that the
farms OF the ranchers, so they say,
are being washed down to the deep
blue sea. The waves from passing
boats cause the trouble and Ii is now
a question Of slow boats, no boats, or
rowboats. Which will win in the
contest is problematieal. The in
creasing commerce Of the st. Joe
demands the service of large and fast
steamers; the ranehers don't want
them, and yet they do, for the simple
reason that they are necessary, even
though few feet of st. Joe dirt may
be washed away, and the question is
what are they going to do. Winter
will soon solve the problem for few
months and the ranchers may then
rest easy until springtime. comes

The steamboat man Is in peculiar
position. The travelling public
demands fast time and the ranchers
are determined that they will have
barge time. The captains will be

avoid the missels that will be hurled
at them from both sides.
