GAYNOR A NATIONALIST.

The dispatches within few. days
past have been switching rather sig
nificantly towards Mayor Gaynor of
New York as the choice of the New
York Democrats for President. The
Wilson boom seems TO have about
doomed itself out; the Champ Clark
boom has more wind and frolic to it
than substance; the Underwood boom
is weakling with great possibilities
but small present showing. Governor
Dix of New York was suggested some
time ago as New York s choice; but it
appears that Dix has lost ground both
with the Tammany machine and with
the thinking Democrats of the State;
and so Gaynor appears likely to become
New York g choice. And if be does
receive the united support of that
State, be is very likely to be a for
midable candidate, because Gaynor is
man with the greatest attainments for
public office of any candidate so far
named on the Democratic side. He has
had long and distinguished career
upon the bench, and as executive of
greater New York he has made dis
tinct success.
1T is interesting, therefore, to note
that Mr. Gayuor has come out in favor
of the Federal incorporation Of trusts.
On this point he says: HLet the Ma
tional Government take the whole mat
ter unto itself, as it has the power to
do" This is a positive, sweeping dec
laration, which Mayor Gaynor, being
himself a lawyer of great ability,
would not be likely to make unless he
had investigated the subject and con-
cluded that, as matter of law, he was
stating the matter with correctness
and precision.
At a recent dinner of the National
Democratic club, Mayor Gaypor laid
the blame Of trust evils on loose cor
poration laws Of the States. and espe-
cially those of the State of New Jer-
sey. He amplified that talk further in
an interview with the New York
World. stating that the great trouble
with the New Jersey law is, that it

COOPERATIVE OFFERS.

decidedly interesting offer III view
of the strike troubles in England, is
that made by Jonathan Peate, owner
of number of wooden mills at Leeds
and Guiseley. He offers to permit the
Socialists the use Of any of his mills
rent free, for six years, if they are
willing to run a Socialistic factory;
and the offer has been followed by a
similar one by an Alderman of Bailey,
whose name is George Hirst.
The latter expresses himself decid
edly to the purport that he has no
confidence either that the Socialists
will accept his offer, or that if they
did accept it, they could make success
of running the mills. He makes his
offer, as be expresses it. to "provide
them with the rope with which to
hang themselves as far as their e1-
istence in England is concerned, He

A NEW MOTIVE POWER.

A very novel and vastly important
application Of electrical power is said
to have been discovered by Mr. Peter
Cooper Hewitt of New York. We find
an account of it in Financial America

a vacuum transformer. permitting an
alternating electrical current to be
changed into direct current The
new current thus generated he calls
the negative reluctance and tests
Of its effectiveness have been made by
the Westinghouse Company, aud these
bear out substantially all that the in
ventor claims. If the invention proves
practicable and generally adaptable, it
Is reasonably stated that transportation
will undergo nothing short of a
revolution" Mr.. Hewitt believes that
trains can be operated throughout
great distances by means Of this new
Undiscovered current, with power sta
tions not nearer than two hundred miles
apart. Between New York and Chi
cago only three or four would be re.
quired, while on transcoptipental road
with n San Francisco terminus, about
fifteen power stations between New
York and the coast would serve all
purposes.
Mr.. Hewitt describes the operation
by which the current is changed from
alternating into a direct force by say
ing that "the rectifer works on the
principle of the check valve in ao
ordinary water pipe by which the flow
is regulated or controlled, The alter
mating currents are assembled so that
their impulses are converted into one

trains may be operated at speed of
100 miles an hour, and Financial

THE DEAD OF THE MAINE.

certainly ought to be done, this inter

that explosion is the final act in a
great international drama, which result

lean ship and its crew, and finally so
disastrously to Spain
IL is upwards of fourteen years since
the Maine was destroyed 10 Havana
harbor. 1t is now proved and accept
ed that the prime cause Of the destruc
tion of the ship was an explosion of a
mine from the outside. This explosion
caused the magazines in turn to ex-
plode, and there was instant ruin of
mighty warship and her great crew.
The burial of the hulk of the Maine
was just just one week previous, on
Saturday, March 10th, The body of
the wrecked ship was sunk nine miles
off the harbor of Havana in deep
water, there to rest forever. The bodies
of the seamen on the ship were laid
to their final rest on Saturday, March
23rd. The story of great disaster
and international event is thus closed,
and worthily closed for the United
States. 1t was necessary that, before
closing this chapter, the United States
must raise the wreck of the
Maine and ascertain definitely the
prime cause Of the destruction of
the ship. This is done, the wreck
age is disposed of and the bodies
are buried. The event is a closed
book, and all animosities which
to the destruction of the ship
at the time are now allayed. Peace
prevails, and cordial relations between
the United States and Spain are re-
sumed Thus it is in the history of the
world. The shifting changes bring on
results, and bleeding sores
become scars. and finally all memory |
Of the scars is lost So may it be in
this case, for there is no profit either

Either way, Salt Lake City is bound
