SOME WoRRYING FEATuREs.

The Democratic National Committee
selected st. Louis instead of Chicago
in which to hold the Democratic Ma
tional Convention so as to avoid be-
ing annoyed by Mr.. Hearst's Chicago
newspaper. From accounts which are
now appearing in the dispatches there
are other worrying features connected
with st. Louis. Indeed there are in
dications that these worrying features
will be more numerous in st. Louis
than they would have been in Chicago.
1t is stated that Mr.. Hearst has ar
ranged to print a daily paper in st.
Louis during the convention week and
Mr.. Bryan has announced that it is
his purpose to print daily issue of
his paper, The Commoner, there while
the convention is in session. On the
top of these annoying announcements
comes the report that st. Louis hotel
keepers have decided to charge dele
gates rates that are simply extortion-
ate. It seems that one of the national
committeeman wrote to the Planters
Hotel for rates. and also to the South
ern, and the best offer he could get
was S. per day for a room, the room
to be occupied by four persons That
is at the rate of $40 per day for a
room.
1t is a fact of course that st. Louis
has about as bad a summer climate
as it is possible for a city to have.
1t is located on a limestone founda-
tion, and when it gets hot it is like
furnace, day and night, during the
hot season. The time for the meet
ing of the convention is about the hot
test of the year.
1t is probable that the convention
would endure patiently the heat, and
even the hotel rates, but the prospect
of being bombarded every hour of the
day while the convention is in session
by two publications having for their
object the influencing of the delegates
Is one that is calculated to cause dis
turbing dreams. s
But there is no way to get away
from the Hearst and Bryan newspa-
| pers. 1t is possible to escape the heat
and the extortion by abandoning st.
Louis and selecting some other city for
holding the convention. 1t is said that
there is talk of having the National
Committee reconvene and select some
other site if the hotel keepers do not
comply with the guarantee that was
made on behalf of st. Louis when that
city was chosen. That guarantee was
that there shouldn't be any advance in
the hotel rates.
There will be other hotels, however,
besides the Planters and the South
ern. The fair will be open, and doubt
less there will be hotels at the fair
grounds where room can be had at
| reasonable rates.

FORGOT His Creator.

Judge Pritchard, formerly Senator
form North Carolina. tells the follow
ing story of a hotel proprietor in his
state, says the New York Tribune.
He says there is a certain rank in
North Carolina known as "Yarboro
colonel" The name originated in Raj
eigh, where the Yarboro Hotel is. Any
reasonably prosperous individual can
win the title by putting up at the
Marlboro for not less than week and
contributing literally to the revenues
of the bar during that period. A
sufficiently liberal spender will then re-
ceive from the genial host, Colonel
Bill" North, the title of colonel" On
one occasion ''Yarboro colonel came
to Raleigh and put up at Bill North's $
but he patroniZed the bar too liberal
ly, and finally became unruly and was
called to time by Colonel North. The
Marlboro colonel resented the indig-
nifty and prepared to enter into a per-
sonal encounter with "BilP' because
the latter had forgotten to use his title
of colonel, but "Bill" was equal to the
occasion. Squaring off, he looked his
man in the eye for moment and then
delivered himself as follows: "I made
you a colonel, sab, and I can unmake
you! Don't you forget that, Jim
SMITH"

Senator Quay's owl-like eyes must be
blinking with amusement and satisfac-
tion these days. Quay is a spokesman
from first to last, and doesn't care who
knows it, He believes in grabbing
everything in sight, and if there is
nothing in sight when useful man
wants a job, in making a new office for
him and paying the cost out of the pub
lie funds. This policy has made Quay
the boss Of Pennsylvania, in which 9o-
siticn he is apparently inYulnerable.
President Roosevelt was formerly a
civil service reformer, one of the inn
patient, strenuous kind that wanted to
see the spoils system swept into the
sea between breakfast time and lunch.
But now that he has a topheavy presi-
Dental boom on his hands, for which
aid is needed badly and at once, the
former civil service reformer has gone
10 the spokesman for help. Senator
Quay, according to the Philadelphia
papers, is now giving the President the
greatest comfort he is receiving, and
the President is leaning heavily upon
the Senator.

nRYAN,s POSITION MADE CLEAR.

There is no longer doubt as to the
position Mr.. Bryan proposes to take
at the St. Louis convention. He IS
going to demand the reaffirmation of
the Kansas City platform. He made
that clear at the dollar" dinner given
him by his admirers at Lincoln on
Monday night.
His reason for taking that position,
although he knows the people twice
repudiated that platform, is that it
is right, and that the party ought to
do what it knows to be right rather
than pursue a policy of expediency.
1t is by no means certain that the
Kansas City platform was right on
the money question. Thousands of
Democrats doubted that it was. The
money plank in that platform wouldn't
have been adopted if Mr.. Bryan hadn't
insisted upon it; hadn't, in fact, said
that he wouldn't accept the nominal
ton unless it were one Of the declara-
tons. 1t was the sense of a majority
of the leading men off the convention
that it would be a mistake to adopt
it. The result of the election proved
they were right.
How can Mr.. Bryan say then that
it ought to be adopted again because
it is right? The financial history of
the world during the last eight years
proves pretty conclusively that it is
wrong. 1t is evident that if it should
be put into the platform adopted this
year it would be a burden that the
party would find difficult to carry. 1t
looks as if Mr.. Bryan wanted to force
it down the throats of those Demo-
Gratis who refused to support him in
his two campaigns. For that salts
faction he would jeopardize the sue
cess of his party
Knowing now what Mr.. Bryan's pro-
gramme is, the question arises, what
is the prospect that he will be able
to carry it out? AS far as we are
able to see it isn't promising. He
may be able to prevent the nominal
tion of any one who didn't give him
a hearty support because he may be
able to influence a third of the con-
vention on that matter, but he win
not be able to dictate the platform.
Evidently leading Eastern Democrats
do not think Mr.. Bryan will cut much
of a figure in the convention. Mr..
Murphy, the Tammany leader, for in
stance, is stiI insisting that Mr..
Cleveland is the strongest candidate
that could be nominated. His Cleve-
land talk may be a cloak to cover his
real intentions, but his friends do not
seem to think so. In view of the dis
position to let New York name the
candidate it is within the possibilities
that Mr.. Cleveland will be nominated,
Notwithstanding the fact that he has
asserted that he could think of no
combination of circumstances that
would induce him to accept the nomi-
nation. If he should be nominated,
Mr.. Bryan would be placed in a rather
awkward position.

NOT HEREDITARY.
Badness Due to a Living Minute
Germ.

Many people, even unto the the
present day of grace, consider bald
ness due to hereditary influence,
Nothing is further from the truth
Badness is caused by the onslaught
of a minute organism which secretes
itself beneath the scalp and attacks
the roots of the hair-causing it to
lose its life and fall out.
This organism cannot be got rid OF
except by the free and persevering use
of Newbro's Herpicide.
No matter how badly the scalp is
effected the Dandruff surely disap-
pears and hair health is restored
when Herpicide is applied.

effect"

A club of scientists will hold an an
nual dinner in New York i'm the early
days of February at which a toast will
be drank in liquid sunshine" theadis-
covery OF Prof. Morton of the Post
graduate Medical School of New York.
Liquid sunshine?" as DIR. Morton calls
it, is product of radio-activity, and
he believes it will prove a wonderful
curative agent. At the dinner a tiny
particle of radium salts will be en-
closed in a capsule and placed at each
plate with glass of water. The room
will be darkened and each man will
drop the capsule into his glass and
thus make his own liquid sunshine. "
The action of the radium will cause
the water to glow, and the diners will
swallow the glowing draught. Pre-
sumably, if there are any germs in the
systems of the diners at the time OF
this inletting of sunlight in liquid FORM
they will scamper madly to get out.

For more than fifty years inventive
minds have been turned to the produc-
tion of a cotton picking machine. What
is wanted is a mechanical apparatus
that will extract the fiber from the bolls
without injuring immature bolls or
gathering leaves and trash along with
the fiber. A Tennessee man believes
that he has at last solved the problem.
On the front of a frame on wheals.
drawn by two horses, is a gasoline en-
gine furnishing power for a 26-inch
exhaust fan The fan exhausts the air
from a cylinder to which is attached
several pieces of rubber hose. Each
piece of hose is a picker" In opera
tion the end of the hose will be held
over an open cotton boil. when in
stantly the current of air rushing into
the open end of the hose will snatch out
the fiber and suck it into the cylinder,
where suitable apparatus, also operated
by pneumatic power, will throw it into
a bag. One man or boy will be re-
Quired to manipulate each hose end.
Five rows, it is claimed, can be picked
at time, as rapidly as the horses can
walk over the length of the row. Six
men are required to operate the pneu-
matte picker, for which a capacity Of
5000 pounds a day is claimed.

Democratic confidence is beginning to
worry the President according to a
Washington story. He is nervous and
irritable, and is beginning to annoy his
friends by his impatience and querul-
BUSINESS. A Republican leader had an
interview with him a few days ago, and
dame out of the conference room look
ing both bothered and amused. He
can't stand the gait" he said to a
friend, jerking his thumb. over his
shoulder towards the rooms he had just
left. The return of the Democratic
party to "a sane and dangerous condi-
tion," as described by Senator Pratt OF
New York some days ago, is giving the
President some uneasy quarters of an
hour.

The general staff of the army is con-
sidering a plan for keeping retired Of
ficers in what might be called active
service, Notwithstanding their retire
ment They are to be assigned to re-
cruiting service and to the various
military schools that receive govern
ment aid. The retired officers will prob
ably not object to this, as it will give
them full service pay instead OF the
three-quarters pay they are entitled to
under the retirement laws. -

The Mississippi Legislature has be-
fore it a bill the purpose of which is
to make lynching technically and spe-
officially a crime, punishable as the
jury may direct. Under the present
laws 1ynching is murder, and con-
viction- of lynching carries with 1t the
penalty as for murder. Owing to this
fact, it is claimed many juries refuse
to convict even when the evidence is
conclusive. 1t is believed more con-
victions could be had if the penalty
were made less severe.

The adjutant general of the state
of Washington the other day tele
graphed the War Department for "six
razors," with directions that they be
charged to the militia account of that
state. 1t chances that shaving imple-
ments are not among the stores fur
nished the militia by the War Depart
ment, so an explanation was asked
After some correspondence it was
learned that what was wanted was
six sight raisers," which are proper
military stores. The department might
do well to include pocket spelling
books in its list OF officers equip
ments.
