POINTS ABOUT TIME. Variations and the causes which PRODUCE THEM. , - . I - ' - - "h Earth's RcTotatloas on IU Axis, To gether with Its Journey Around the Bun, Are th Disturbing Factor No "Watch Is Perfectly Sellable. If there is one single scientific problem pon which more than another people appear to get mixed that problem is ome. btandard time, local time, sun time are exceedingly difficult problems ror me puDiic to puzzle over, and when ldereal time enters the calculation the case is hopeless indeed. 1 have fre quently of late seen so many letters ad aressea tnis and other journals, all touching upon one or the other of these chronological questions, that I have con cluded a short note explaining the main points of difference would be, at any rate, timely. If it only suggests to the young men in the business offices the idea of going to work at 9 a.m., local mean time, aud leaving off promptly at p. m., Pacific standard time, the ques tion will have been shown to possess a practical side. The application of it. however, is purely a matter of taste. Well, to come to time, the great chro nometer and regulator in chief to the business, social and scientific world is the earth itself. Turning u pqn its axis in the period which we divide into twenty-four hours, the sun appears to cross the me ridian of each place on the globe once in that interval. The moment at which it crosses the meridian of any place (Green wich), for example, is termed "local ap parent noon' at that place. This would be all very well if the earth and sun re mained fixed in their relative positions; or if the earth, completing, as it does, an annual revolution abont the sun, did so uniformly in a perfect circle and that circle were in the same plane with the motion of daily rotation. Then the sue cessive intervals between the meridian passages of the sun at Greenwich would all be equal, and a perfect chronometer set at 13 hrs.. 0 min., 0 sec., when the sun transited today would indicate pre cisely the same instant for "apparent noon at every date. MOTIONS OF THE EARTH. But the earth's path around the sun is not a perfect circle: it is an ellipse, and the motion in one portion of the ellipse is more rapid than in another, and this causes a slight variation in the intervals between the solar passages. Again, the plane of the earth's path around the sun, or the elliptic, is inclined 23 degs. to the plane of the equator in which the daily rotation takes place, and conse quently twice a year the intervals of "apparent noon" are each about twenty seconds greater and twice a year about twenty seconds less than twenty-four hours. To explain just why this results would require more of an investigation into astronomical principles than is here contemplated; bnt it is so, nevertheless, and any text book will elucidate the rea sons. A combination of the two effects causes the sun to be apparently slow fourteen minutes in February and fast sixteen minutes in November. But in the course of a year the average comes out all right, and therefore a "mean solar day" of exactly twenty-four hours is adopted in the almanacs and used for all purposes. This accounts for the dif ference between mean time and sun time, j A regulator keeps the former; a sun dial indicates the latter. j A few years ago (or prior to 1884) every large city in the United States had its own local time, and this was for each place the true mean solar time, obtained as above indicated. REGULATING TIME. Consequently, a man traveling west ward from Washington would find his Watch fast, as follows: At Chicago, 42 minutes ; at Omaha, 1 hour 16 minutes; at Denver, 1 hour S2 minutes; at Salt iiako City, 2 hours 20 minutes, and final ly, at San Francisco, 3 hours 2 minutes. It will readily be recalled how much annoyance was occasioned by all these various corrections, both to trainmen and travelers. About the year men tioned a great reform was inaugurated. Nowadays a traveler going westward finds bis watch fast from time to time, but only the hour hand is in error. All the clocks in the country indicate the minute and second of Greenwich mean time, but the hour is changed for each 15 degs. of longitude. Washington time is 5 hours slow of Greenwich; Chicago, 6 hours; Denver, 7 hours. In San Fran cisco we are H hours slow of the prime meridian. All the intermediate cities and towns are run on one system or an other, according to their location in longitude, the standards being eastern, central, mountain and Pacific time. All the time pieces on the coast are set by Pacific standard time, which is 8 hours slow of Greenwich mean time. There fore, a watch which is set at San Fran cisco solar time by means of a corrected sun dial is still 9 minutes 42 seconds slow of a Pacific standard time clock, because we are that much in longitude west of the 120th meridan, which forms the eastern boundary of northern Cali fornia and on which only is the "Pacific time" coincident with "local mean time.'

First We reaffirm our devotion to the republican doctrine of protection for home industries against injurious foreign compe tition, and we recognize the McKinley bill as the ablest expression of that principle enacted in fulfillment of republican prom ises and as affording equal protection to the manufacturers, the mechanics, and the workingmen of America, from an nnjus and degrading competition with the pau perized and poverty-stricken labor of Euro pean countries, and preserving American shall effectually and Sixteenth While inviting to our shores the worthy poor and oppressed of other nations, we demand enactments of law that will protect our country and people against the influx of vicious and criminal classes of foreign nan ms. and the importation of laborers under contract to compete with our own citizens, and earnestly approve the fritrid enforcement of the existing laws by the present administration. seventeenth we are opposeil to tne im migration f Chinese laborers to the United S rtte-1. and 'em ri i such exUrii.' laws as forever exclude Chi- THE LEADING BRANDS.

A Lord In a Ditch. Lord Hnlgrave was distinguished by singularity of physical conformation, . having two distinct voices, the one strong and hoarse, the other weak and querulous, of both of which ha occa sionally availed himself. So extraordi nary a circumstance probably gave rise to a story of his having fallen into a ditch on a dark night and calling for aid In his shrill voice. A countryman com ing up was about to help him, bat Lord M nigra ve, addressing him in a hoarse tone, the peasant immediately exclaimed, Oh, if there are two of you in the ditch yon may help each other out of it."

As a rule, only the expensive varieties of dolls are so en dowed. "But," suggests a close shop per, "1 boy a seventy-five cent doll, for which 1 get good kid body with bisque arms and feet, and then at some small hairdresser's I get the jute curls replaced with a wig of real hair at much less ex pense than 1 could buy the doll thus en dowed in the first place." New York jjnea. . wool industry equal to that accorded to the most favored manufacturer of wool so tbat due time American wool growers will supply all the wool of every kind required for consumption in the United States, and we denounce the Springer free wool bill now pending in congress as unjust and un patriotic. Fifth Thoroughly balieving that gold and silver should form the basis of all circu lating medium, we endorse the amended coinage of the last republican congress by which the entire production of tha silver mines of the United States is added to the currency of the people. Sixth We commend the patriotic ser- icea of our senators and; representative in congress, and approve their efforts and measures for the general benefit of the state, and we especially commend their in dustry in behalf of measures for the opening dp and improvement of the Columbia river, and we deplore all factional opposition to these measures. Seventh that we are heartily in favor of the passage by congress of a bill providing for a boat railway at the dalles of the Co lumbia river, which has been twice passed through the senate through the efforts of Senators Mitchell and Dolph; that we he Jieve it to be the most practicable plan for relief of the producers and for the develop ment of that, vast territory of country tributary to the great Columbia river, and we are in favor of liberal appropriations for internal improvements, especially for all rivers and harbors. Eighth We demand the appropriation by congrena of a sum sufficient to complete the work at the Cascade locks, and that the work of completing the same be let by con tract. Ninth That we are in favor of a fair and equal distribution of taxation, add believe that all property not exempt by law should contribute its due proportion in payment of the legitimate expenses of the government, and to this end we are in favor of such amendment to our assessment laws as will jecure the assessment and taxation of all property at its true cash value. Tenth We are in favor of an narlv nnr. vey of the nnsurveyed public lands of the state, in order that the same may be claimed and occupied and titles thereto speedily procured by bona fide settlers under the laws of the United Slates. Eleventh We favor the development of our state by the construction of railroads and - other systems of transportation and we hold all corporations to be strictly re s:onsiblri to their liabilities under law, and we recognize the right of the legislature to exact all responsible limitation on corpo ate power. Twelfth The producers and laborers of the country should Dot be taxed to maintain convicts in idleness, and the state should give such employment to its criminals as will relieve the taxpayers without forcing free laborers from their, vocations or reduc ing their wages by unnatural compel ition. Thirteenth We endorse the action of state railroad commission in its efforts to secure cheap transportation, and we con gratulate the shippers upon the success it has attained, and we recommend that the law be so changed as to provide for the election of the commissioners by the people. Fourteenth The republican party, ever mindful of the service of the heroic men who served the Union, favors liberal pen sions to the sailors and soldiers of the re. public and a generous care of their widows and orphans. i ' 3 Fifteenth We favor economy in the ad ministration of national and state affairs, the prompt and effective restraint of com bines or capitalists for purposes unlawful or at variance with sound public policy ; ample educational facilities for the whole people by the maintenance inviolate of our public school system; reservation of public lands of United States for homesteads of Ameri can citizens, and restoration to the public domain of all unearned railroad grants; and we contemplate with pride the progress of republican . legislation and administration : al of the directions named. tak iiriile in commend ! i.-nr r"n 'Hich 11 conirreas, lem r itic 'iliinnter- th- MoKtnlrv t i-i!F law. re- u 'tr:i m revietme- "nni-.v trillions -: !.. the fr ii-s lv ' Ming r i. , ,) ,11111V 'f rh siieif. necearies of mi 1 ii'v hie r.'t .; Iu'f ':ere ia suffi- cifiit quantities to smiitly the demand; anil otherwise readjusted the tariff laws; passed e customs administration act: pension I not a cosmetic in the sense in which that term . 1 1 p :miriy useu, uui permanently oeautines. it abb, resuming creites a soft, smoothe. clear, velvetv skin, and bv to the public dai y ue jfadually makes the complexion several puiauuu iw uie . fiomain; ine posiii Bunsiiiy act: tne anil- ena tsol sun ana wind ana prevent nun burn and ' HAM'S Cucumber and Llder Flower Cream. lottery act; the auti-trnst law and frAVflpa Dill hlftMr.hmiYla will natra nnmn -).

In promulgating esoteric cogitations or articulating superficial sentimentalities and philosophical or psychological observations, beware of platitudinous ponderosity.

Eschew all conglomerations of flatulent garrulity, jejune babblement and asinine af fectations.
