He reports the practical success of the car in that it moves speedily over the track without interrup- tion or annoyance. The sole objection that he points out as regards this particular form of compressed air motor is the some- what severe vibration, which the inventor claims to be due to the newness of the machinery. It is announced now. however, that the moter in use In New York is not of the kind to be introduced on the Ecking- ton and Belt roads in this city, but that the centract for the local equipment has been let to a Pittsbu:g firm for a hitherto unadver- tise furm of construction. There should be no surprise that a number of compressed air motors are on the market or that they are enc As long ago as October 22, 1 an article describing the ris which had been ‘or some time and mentioned as weli asim at Nantes, France, which had been in operation ten yeara.

Yet if experiments aré deemed necessary it fe probavly just as well that the people here should get the benefit of the very best and the latest that exists in this line very arce | will be to assist in electing Mr. McKinley President. Here now comes up this thoroughly un- American question of the rich against the poor. Some criticism is already leveled at this movement because those engaged in it are representatives of property in their re- spective localities. It 1s characterized as the rich man’s movement. Property is handing together to carry its ends, and those ends are inimical to the wage-earner and the farmer. This simply is criminal nonsense There ig not the slightest war- rant in reason for any such statement. The paramount issue of the campaign is a busi- ness issue. It relates to the very life blood of business—whether that blood shall be purified and kept pure, or vitiated and im- poverished. Surely that proposition reaches and interests everybody. Why shall not the business man consider {t, and, consid- ering it, move in the premises as his inter- s and the general interests advise him is best? He would be a very strange sort of individual if he were nct aroused to ac- tion by a question appealing so directly to him. ; And another point. What authority is there for the assumption that in moving in his own interests the business man ts moving against the interests of other men? Under a free government all interests are allied. The business man cannot prosper if the wage-earner and the farmer do not. It and it may be that the Pittsburg motor for which the Eckington road has contracted, er perhaps the Hardie or Hoadley motors that are now competing for the New York field, will prove sufficiently better than those in use abroad to compensate in part for the delay so] Six months is the time that Spain now Says it will take to subdue Cuba. It is not made clear how the task will be any easier in the six months to come tnan it was in the six months just past or the six months Previcus to that. soe - Li Hung Chang is believed to be commis- sicned to make some large purchases dur- ing his tour.

A meeting of sound money democrats will be held in Indianapolis to-morrow to consider the advisability of putting an- other presidential ticket in the field. It is expected that thirty states will be repre- gented, and it is certain that the delegates will be men of reputation and responsi- bility, Mm the fullest degree worthy to speak for good citizenship and correct bus- ness principles. ‘This is a1 important movement, and tes- Ufles to the profound interest felt in this year’s campaign. The men engaged in it are in the main not politicians but business men, gathered from every line of commer- cial endeavor. They cannot accept the Chicago deliverance, and they are impelled to assist In some way in the effort to de- feat it at the polls. There are two ways in which they may operate: they have the choice of voting direct for the republican ticket, or weakening the Chicago ticket by putting up and voting for one of their own. Whatever decision they reach, their object is impossible. If the crops fail, and the mines and factories are idle, so that the farmer and the wage-earner have no money, how can the merchant, or the banker, or the manufacturer, thrive? Where is business to come from? On the other hand, if times are good and confi- dence prevails, all feel the benefits alike. Not all in equal degree, of course. That could not be. That never has been. That never will be. But to the extent of their stake In the game, when the winnings are large, the farmer and the wage-earner get their share along with the business man. The times are hard. The farmer and the wage-earner are not alone in distress. The business man has his share of the trouble, and is as anxious to see the clouds lift as anybody else. Why should he not contrib- ute by organization and action to the gen- eral store of help? He ought to be encour- aged in all he does to that -end. Whose views about a business question are worth- ier of consideration than those’ of the repu- table, representative business man? ——_> = —___ Home Again in Tenth Place. Pride is credited with having “thrust Nebuchadnezzar out of men’s society, Saul out of his kingdom, Adam out of paradise, Haman out of court and Lucifer out of heaven.” Perhaps that same fatal weak- ness had something to do with the descent of the Washington Baseball Club. For awhile that organization led the league; leng ago and now only a misty memory; today it is in tenth place, with a -fighting chance for the eleventh hole. And yet who will say that things are not better than they were when the current season was young? Wholly unaccustomed to any of the exalted positions in the first division we were as uncomfortable as a back- woodsman might easily be at a state @inner. Proud we undoubtedly were but the sensa- tion was never one ef unqualified pleasure. Now we are perfectly at home once more; down in the region where our old-time sen- sations are at liberty to air themselves; where we can rub elbows with Louisville and do things that would be entirely out of accord with the dignity which might rea- sonably be looked for in our demeanor were we anywhere else than at the tall-end of the procession. +o It is to be feared that the effect of Sen- ator Faulkner's ingeniously worded ex- pressions of apprehension concerning a struggle between the masses and the classes will unhappily be to inflame the passions and prejudices which he ostensibly deplores and to encourage the political division between rich and poor which he verbally deprecates. Senator Jones’ position with reference to the alleged remark about southern popu- lists seems to be that he didn’t say it and if he did say it he didn’t mean {t and that if he did say and mean it he 1s sorry for it. a In spite of its admiration of sport the American public would be entirely content not to have the hottest-day-of-the- season record further assatled. eee So far as the parental reconciliation is concerned, the Vanderbilt episode still wears a very doubtful to-be-continued-in- our-next aspect. ——__+0-+____ The temperature went up a few notches today, but the force on the city post office building remained the same as yesterday, 225 men. —_-- e+ ____ Thomas Watson has discarded his felt hat for a straw.
