HISTORIC REPETITIONS-

'sOne of the most fearful statements that
"was ever made is that History repeats
'ftseIf'" begins the Hon. Tom Watson in
accepting the Populist nomination for Presi-
dent Take the words lightly and you stand
APPALLED," We should stand appalled,, rather,
If any one should dare to take them lightly,
coming as they do from a man who has been
defeated once for Vice-President and once for
President, who consequently knows from per
sonal experience more than any living man
except Mr.. Bryan about the repetitions Of his
tory and who in a few months Will have still
further confirmation of its damnable iteration.
The Hon. Tom knows whereof he speaks
History repeating itself is no joke. When it is
thus engaged 1.-The slopes Of another Gettys-
burg will run red with blood. the fiery broom
will sweep another Shenandoah, . the
world will hear again the shrieks of the vic
''tims of the Inquisition, we shall again
have the rule Of the many by the few and
1.-THE giving of systematized pillage in the
sacred name of government"
But LET Us turn with Mr.. Watson to A 3. c.
History is again going over that period with
a dotards delight in the finest achievement
of his youth The much admired julius

money by the money power. He had shifted
the taxes from the masses to the classes. he
had established a reasonable profit on invest

had likewise given them ten days more a
wear than they ever had before, and for good
measure thrown in an extra day every four

was the peerless leader OF a party called the
Popuares. He had just refused his third nom
ination at the party convention held at the
Lupercal. History does not record whether the
cheering exceeded eighty-seyen minutes or not.
Mr. Watson makes il clear however, that the
Populares may have corresponded to either
the present Populists the Democrats. Tie
only variation therefore, which history has
made in its repetition thus far was in the re-

THE ANTI-BRYAN DELEGATES.

The vote In the Denver convention on the
report offered by minority Of the committee
on credentials completely confirmed the accu-
racy of The -Tribune's classification OF the
delegates-elect as committed to Bryan, un-
committed or committed to other candidates.
Our final table Of July showed 757 delegates
for Bryan, % for Johnson, II for Gray and
PIP uncommitted. On the division Wednes-
day night there were 8s7 votes cast to uphold
the title Of the Guffey delegates from Penn
sylvania. But 143 Of those votes were cast
by delegates instructed to vote for Mr.. Bryan
for the Presidential nomination.
There were therefore, in the convention PA
men free to oppose Mr. Bryan, II they saw
fit; for It Is highly improbable that any genu-
inc anti-Bryan man voted to eliminate Colonel
Guffey and his followers. The Tribunes table
put the total available vote against Bryan s
nomination at 245, although 1T has always SAID
that much of this strength would fade away
when It came to baJloting. The maximum OF
the possible ti-Brysn muster was little
short of onefourth of the membership of the
convention.

BR|TISH NAVAL NANGUVRES.

Advance reports appear to have underrated
In some respects the British naval assemblage
in the North Sea. Its numbers are consider
ably greater than they were at first stated
From go 10 nearly 3O0'' were the figures
They are, in fact, considerably more than
800 There are % battleships and "a armored
cruisers of which latter most are practically
first class battleships; SO protected cruisers
and scouts 10 torpedo gunboats "destroyers
parent ships" and 130 destroyers, 80 subma-
rines and submarines parent ships" 3 mine
LAYERS and 40 torpedo boats. The total is 311
This ga athering Of red, white and blue has been
effected moreover, without withdrawing all
other ships from their places. Thus, there are
still battleships, battieship cruisers and 2
protected cruisers left to escort the Prince Of
Wales 10 Canada; 10 big battleships and II
other vessels remain in the Mediterranean, and
tbe Eastern feet, scattered from the Cape to
Australia and comprising 90 or more vessels,

sANBALLAT, GAsHMU d co.

These be parlous days, indeed, with rumors
of battle murder and sudden death as plentiful
as backberres In the old hill pasture field.
Here is Richmond Pearson Hobson, Of Alabama,
Santiago and elsewhere, seeing the very bloodl-
est kind of blood every time he looks at the
Pacific Ocean. He tells the startled world that
he recently heard the President say that there
was the greatest probability OF a war with
Japan. True he-Mr. Hobson-said that only
when the convention was tired of listening to
him and was bowling him down and he needed
to say something hot + the mouth to secure and
hold attention. Nevertheless, there can be no
question of the impeccable veracity Of the state
ment Did not Si Hawkins tell Deacon Eli
phalet Scruggs that he reckoned by heck! that
there was going to be lively ruction down at
Podunk Four Corners? And is it not known
that Emperor William anticipates war In the
near future between Germany and the Ak
hoond of Swat over the comparative merits OF
an elastic currency and rubber stamps?
Then there is that ominous capture Of dis
guised Japanese down on the Rio Grande with
some papers In his possession. There can be no
question that he is a spy, who means to betray
to the hungry hordes Of Nippon the strategic
approaches to every free lunch counter in the
land. But that is not the worst of 1t. San
ballat the Horonite categorically declares that
it Is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu
saith 1t, that Blue Nosed Kanuck, disguised
as jack rabbit, recently detected swim
ming across Niagara Falls and having at inter-
walls of few inches around the waistband Of
his trousers perforated discs Of metal which he
pretended were gallus buttons, but which un-
questionably were internal machines. The men
who captured him say they never him be-
fore and have no idea who he is, which, Of
course, proves that he is a desperate conspira-
tor
AS for that bodybuilding business at Bangkok,
1t is certainly the limit. The Siamese protest
stoutly that they merely making scows for
carrying fruit and vegetables on the Menam
River. That is, however, obviously tantamount
to confession that they mean to sell them to
the government of Nepal for the invasion Of
Buncombe County, n. c., by way Of Red Dog
Gulch and Bitter Creek. How our government
can be so regardless of the peril passes our
comprehension. Sanballat is asking all sorts
Of questions and Gashmu is saying 1t at the
rate of fourteen and half to the dozen, and
yet we slumber on the brink Of the volcano
Oh, for one hour of Richmond Pearson Hobson

AERIAL TRANSPORTATION.

1t Is reported that a stock company Is being
formed in Germany to operate airShipS over
routes including the principal cities of Europe.
The project is said to be one of the results
of Count Won Zeppelin's latest achievements,
which, it may be assumed will be supple
mented by even more striking feats before the
summer Is over. The qualities Of the new
dirigible balloon of the Wurtemburg inventor
have probably not yet been fully revealed 1t
was built under a contract with the imperial
authorities, and in demonstrating his ability
to comply with certain conditions of the agree
ment-staying aoft twenty-four hours, for In
stance-he was to be allowed to take his own
time. Still, he may have thought 1t worth
while to say something about his expectations
with view to interesting capital.
The story Is plausible. Enough is known
about the airship which is housed the
shore of Lake Constance when not out for
trial to warrant consideration Of the question
whether or not 1t is suited to other kinds Of
service than that of an army. Aerial voyages
ranging in length from four hundred to one
thousand miles would not now create great
surprise, but they would constitute SO con-
spicuous an advance upon the past as to fur
nish a new basis for calculation. Besides, 1t
is safe to say that the drigible balloon has not
vet reached the limit Of development Better
ones than Won Zeppelin's latest are conceiv-
able Indeed, improvements on what at pres
ent enjoys the distinction Of being the finest
specimen of its class may be deemed necessary
before aerial transportation for purely conf
mercial purposes will be practicable.
The enormous difference in supporting power
between the ocean and the atmosphere can
never be overcome. Airshlps are thus pre-
vented from carrying anything but relatively
small loads. They cannot handle freight and
1ota ffaI
number of passengers. In his recent flights
Won Zeppelin has had from a dozen to fifteen
companions and yet his balloon is about half
as long and half wide as the Lusitania. At
the outset, then, one Is compelled to ask
whether 1t will ever pay to conduct traffic OF
that sort. How many persons are willing to
face the Inconvenience and peril Of an aerial
