A remarkable change through
out this country has occurred with
in the last few years, a change
which becomes more manifest or
marked with nearly every election.
1t is the uncertainty of the acton
of the voter as viewed from the
standpoint of the party loyalist. 1t
has not been many years since the
man who went outside of strict
party lines to cast vote was re-
garded as party traitor, a politi-
cal pariah. He was held in Scorn
and contempt by the voter who
gloried in being yellow dog"
party man. Now it is not an un-
common thing to hear an erstwhile
thick and thin party loyalist open
| ly declare that he will vote for a
Republican, or a Democrat, as the
case may be, before he will vote
with his own party if it does or
does not do so, or if this or that
man is or is not nominated.
In the East the political insurrec-
to was born with the nomination OF
Grover Cleveland the first time
He was a Republican and he was
called a mumgwump. He added tt
the Democratic vote without be
coming a Democrat, and since ther
no party has been able to count OF
his vote with absolute certainty
He was practically unknown in The
South until 1896. Then thousands
| of voters who had never voted any
thing but a Democratic ticket re
! fused to vote with their party
The Democratic nominee for Presi
dent that year rightly insisted thai
no man should vote against hi
honest convictions. Many Demo
Gratis voted the party ticket with {
WY face, while many othe 5 re
fused to do so. Siuce then an(
within the last few years thous
ands of voters have disregardet
party appeals anu commands AM
voted according 60 their Judge
: ment. From a purely party stand
point this is a dangerous thing t
do. The voter who does it once i
apt to do it again, and can neve
9 thereafter be accurately set dow
as strict or reliable party ma
who has hope of office who doe
f this thing. He votes the part
ticket because he wants to b
Irregular" and stand well with hi

Cost of Maintenance.

II is an expensive matter to keep engines
ness in the fall. when the cattle and sheep
are coming to market, the engines have
little time to lay in the shops for repairs
and so are thoroughly overhaulsd during
the lax period of summer. II cost the
Union Pacific IL cents a mile for repairs at
the shops for freight engines and cents
for passenger engines. This is beside the
time which the train crew puts on an en-
CINE or the time and repairs which GO in as
roundhouse expenses. 1t Is seen that an
engine which apparently runs so smoothly
over the tracks, hauling its long string of
cars, is subjected to great wear and tear
which must be kept renewed or the life Of
the engine will be limited. The Union Pa
cihc has in use 5O7 engines, both freight
and passenger, and these are in use nearly
all of the time, for they are not allowed
to rest while the men sleep as in the
olden time. Engine No. 400, which is the
type Of the first locomotive the Union Pa
cliffs had, was built by the Cooke Locomo-
tive Works in 1866 and its weight was g.,
l5O pounds and weight with tender was
lie, $50 pounds. Engines of the type OF No.
1000, which were built in 1900, weighed
269, 200 pounds with tender. The first loco
motive was built in America In 1881 and
looked Just as one of the ordinary station
AIRY engines which are now used for pile
driving would look IL it were elevated onto
four wheels.
