as appropriate for the capitois of any

Beautiful and striking as work of

better subject would have been the
reception of Marquette by the 1nini

AN EXPLANATION THAT EXPLAINS.

The Baltimore Sun. democratic. re-
viewing the disaster to Its panty In
Maryland says: mo election has been
held in recent years in Maryland in
which the issue involved was of great
err interest to the voter than that II,
which the people expressed their will
yesterday While the prediction
campaign was not notably aggressive
on either side. there was every evil
dence of popular interest in the issue
which was determined at the polls
yesterday. That the quiet voter made
his, Influence felt 1t not to be doubted"
The pith OF the explanation comes.
however when the Sun explains that
1t is the sense OF THE rank and file Of
the democratic party in this city that
the disaster which has befa'llen their
party is due to the unwisdom of the
managers In forcing upon the democ-
racy unpopular policies foredoomed to
rejection when submitted to the peo-
Pile.
The Maryland case is an object les
son and the explanation OF the causes
that produced Its results Is one to be
heard and needed by party managers
everywhere who propose to force poll
cies upon the people. The Sun might
with propriety have included the fail
.u,e Of party leaders and public rep
resentatives to accept and promulgate
policies popularity regarded as of i'm
nortance to general welfare. The pur-
pos.sful rejection OF unpopular poli-
cies" and of the men who stand for
them is simply plain warming that
nothing but the Square deaT win do.
The quiet voter is likely to be much
in evidence from this time on. the man
who knows what he wants and knows
those whom he does not want in office.

a NEW TRANSIT POWER.

The speed attained by heavy auto
mobiles on ordinary macadam roads of
variable grades doubtless suggested
that an automobile adapted to steel
rails might give excellent results, es-
pecially for passenger traffic on urban
and interurban lines. Motor No. ~
lust constructed and tested by the I'm
ion Pacific Railway Company at its
shops, in Omaha, is motor car OF this
type, which seems to realize the hopes
Of inventors. "No. Q" is passenger
car impelled by gasoline motor which
produces 100 horsepower and attafns
b speed of fifty-seve miles an hour.
Consuming but three quarts of gaso-
line an hour, 1t is operated decidedly
more cheaply than the ordinary coal
burning locomotive. In appearance 1t
is a. large street car, but its front end
is modified with view to diminishing
the resistance Of he air at high speed.
According to the expectation, the new
ed 'engineer" to operate it, together
with fireman, conductor and brakeman,
but will. be managed by two men. In
the ease and cheapness with which 1t
can be run there is a promised solu-
ton OF the problem Of obtaining fast
and frequent service on branch lines
Of the great railways. In suburban
areas it seems to meet long-felt want,
doing business proftably where the
ordinary locomotive would not pay ex-
penses. The Identification Of trunk
lines has been advocated. In parts Of
England and the United States some
thing has been done in this way, with
a view to securing better urban and In
terurban communication atreduced
cost. But there are practical engineer
ing difficulties which delay the inn
provement If the railway automobile
does all that 1t promises, all the i'm
portant conditions have been met.
