Amidst tho wreck nud crush of matter
that followed tho adjournment tho pres-
ent GXocutlvo of Texas lies nt tho bottom
As tho dying embers went out In mid-
night hour and the sad sen waves sung a
requiem over tho conventions death the
notes echoed in tho political tomb of John
Ireland nnd I thought of tho Houston
convention of two years ago
There Ids namo was on
every Jlp Ho was tho choico of n great
people for a groat olllcu tho head of a
great party But yesterday tho word of
Ctesar might have stood against tho
World Now lies ho thoro nnd nqno so
poor to do him reverence No mention
Is made ol him In tho platform Ilia ad-
ministration goos down into tho dream
less dust of tho past without tho Indorse
ment of his party and I have no recollec
tion of healing his name in tho
convention except when a resolution was
Introduced Indorsing his policy In regard
to tho Mexican outrages and this was
turned Into a burlosquo by Judgo Carroll
of Denton who moved that tho resolution
bo referred to u committee of three con-
sisting of tho Hon A W Terrell tho
Hon John Haucock nud thu Hon
8 B Maxoy This was tho
moat unkindest cut of all and amidst
tbo laughter that followed tho motion
Oov Ireland disappeared from thu
conventions nottco novor tqnppcaregaln
Probably It would bo hard to explain why
the patty tailed to Indorso Gov Ire
lands administration but tit present It
rests under tho shadow ot a dumb re-
proach of tho convention It was el
boned into tho hca of tho silent past
lth not even a gravestone to mark its

Tho only question ot principle that

Cincinnati Commercial Cazctlc
For half a century D M Cook has been
a familiar figure In lltchland county and
has been marked for his singular Invent-
ive genlns fn IfiSO when a young nun
he became Impressed with the wonders
of electrical science and then became en-
amored of its study Ho began to dolvo
Into the unknown of this bidden force and
for thirtysix jcars in alternately brilliant
and adverse circumstances has trodden
over this Held till thero Is no nook or
corner with which ho Is unacquainted
Ho commenced lib studies at a time
when lltllo was known of electricity and
by a pursult < of knowledge Iu that di
rection with unbounded znal ho has not
only kept apaco with tho wizards of the
day but has so got In udvnnco of
them that his assertions aro almost
ac-
cepted as altogether Incredulous
But no matter whether his claims
seem wonderful and almost beyond be
lief they aro worthy of ctedence for ho
must be placed In tho list of successful
Inventors In 1852 ho conceived and
constructed a device that revolutionized
tho manufacture of sorghum syrup Tho
dovlco was called an evaporator nnd
was used to mako syrup from sorghum
Ills principle was to run tho julco across
a honied surfaco In lgzag till the
rows
julco would pour out as a puro syrup
ready fur tho table the water bolng
evaporated iu Its passage and thu Im-
purities being thrown to ono side On
this ho received letters patent In 1858
and In 18611 a company began tho luau
nfucturo of the same Thousands and
thousands wero disposed of varying lu
price from 925 to 98C00 over 4000
000 being realized on which tho In
venter got it handsome royalty Through
this no derived quite fortune although
a portion of It ho spent lu Improving and
introducing tho device Kven to this
day a llrm In Cincinnati Is engugod
the manufacture of this same
evaporator from which tho members
of tho llrm mado themselves rich Cook
however several years lost his
ago right
to n royalty by some means or othor and
has not been drawlugnnythlng from that
sourco since
Savo for this Might dlvorslon Mr Cook
has not experimented In any Held outside
of
electricity since thlrtyalx years ago to
any considerable extent but in this direc
tion ho can bo said to havo
spont tho
greater part of his life
lor u while ho sought to solvu tho ques
tion of cheap power light oto by pro
duping tho proper current by means of a
ba tcry Ho luveuted a battery of pecul
Ur value for tolcgiaph purposes which
was to ubo for a long time at Crestline on
tho Western Union and until tho discov
ery of tho cheap gravity battery that Is
now In i o Hut Mr Cook
long ago con
c tided in his own mind that In
dynamio
electricity lay future success Accord
ingly ho cast aside tho battery as a sec
Oiulary affair and sot about to clpuiraent
with dynamos of novol and
con
structlon
lfor several years past he would occas
lonally mcot mo arid speak of his diBcov
cries In the electric Hold but would
snv
that ho had not yet secured tho result ho
after
was Ho would toll met
When I getmy experiments
completed
1 want to show you what will
Ira tho world I propose to mako
a
perpetual clectrlo gonorator or motor
which will propel Itself by Its own curl
rent the roslstuuco of tho
generator
proper being only about 10 percent ot
thu
rotary power of the eloctrloeuKlno
upon which the current ot tho
generator
This assortlon was sulllclont to
shock
an ordinary persons nerves but I ac
cepted the stntemgnt with much allow
ance However fjecamo Interested and
kept watching results
List November Mr Cook camo to mo
and said I havo at last met with suc
cess I havo found the principle
that I
havo been huutlng for so long can
now start a dynamo to going and it will
never stop except by thu wearing away
of Its own parts Not onlywllfUruu
Itself by Its own current but also nro
duco power enough according to thom

More than that ho replied It Is
Perpetual motion with only io

of tho force used leaving 00 pnrcont for
power to bo utllu d as is desired Not
only that but more ono helix of my dv
namo will produce light in

nobody to attend to tho farm and there
tore It Is nothing but a barren waste I
succeeded In getting a few acres of oats
planted and that with a small potato
patch will bo all I will derive this year
from this dno tract
Hero he lives as ho has lived for
years
with a wife and fourteenyearold daugh-
ter nnd bis wifes slstoi Tho latter is
his enthusiastic assistant and has helped
him In many long years of toll Distant
from tho houso btands an old shop
wherein Is hidden tho secrets of his life
No stranger ever enters here for It Is
herein that are contained the results of
thirtysix years of laoor This sccluslve
rulo has been almost Invariable
having been broken but half
a dozen times In over a third
of a contury Several electricians
and two or three others of known lnleg
rlty have been admitted but only after
signing an Ironclad agreement not to re-
veal patent or causo to be patented or
Improve without his conseut any of tho
parts shown to them
The shop Is dilapidated as Is tho rest of
tho farm so much Is his mind taken In
tbo pursuit of his studies The roar Is
used as a sholter for his trusty old hoiso
who has done near thirty years of royal
service while tbo front part Is devoted
altogether to his laboratory
Tho agreement signed Mr Cook led the
way to tho door but ocforo unlocking it
grasped me by tho hand and hud me re-
new tho promlso mado In the written
agreement This done I was ushored
Into tho mysterious room I was bewil
dered by tho place Tho room was largo
nnd everywhere hung bundles ot wive
Magnets of all shapes and sizes hung
about tho walls and wero scattered
on tho floor In confused heaps In ono
comer was n huge machlno with largo
colls nnd magnets which Mr Cook told
mo was the first machine ho attempted to
mako But In tho center of tho room sat
tho prldo of his llfo I saw ntnglanco thut
this
mysterious man had not wasted his
time end fortune Ho had brauched out
from Iho beaten track and had produced
a machine that differed In all respects
from dynamos of prescut construction
except lu that ho also used wlro and Iron
This said he Is my perpetual elec
tric generator and engine I will call my
assistant and show you how It works
Tho machine was rudely constructed
for Mr Cook mado It all hlmsolf with a
few old tools that had dono too much
servlco already larts of It were made of
wood and the whole was not put togothor
In a very artistic mannor But it demon
stratcd his discoveries and that was his
only purpose in Its construction This
model weighs S00 pounds and Mr
Cook
said by thu hand power of ono man could
bo generated curront suUlcient to light up
rom thirty to illty slxteorcandle power
lncandoscont lamps
His assistant having arrived who by
tho way Is a young lady of handsomo ap
pearance tho work of demonstration be
gin I tested the curront In several
ways and found It powerful Hav
ing made electricity somewhat of a study
I was surprised at tho simplicity of many
of tho principles Tho manner In which
hu expected to get tho results heretofore
mentioned Is theoretically correct and
thoro Is no mechanical dlfUculty which he
has not already overcome
After examining this machlno carefully
in all Its patts I was conducted to an ad
joining room where on o table sat a
smaller model of moro accurate make
It contained a much better arrangement
of the parts and from whit ho showed
mo I am compelled to bollcve all that
Mr Cook had told mo 1 asked
him why ho hsa not sought capital to de
velop his theories mere rapidly when ho
replied that ho had not heretofore been
ready Ho saldt
I wanted to Complete my labors so
that I could say my work Is dono I do
sired to glvo to tho world
a machine per
fect In cvory particular that would settle
forevermoru the question of cheap power
light aud heat Up to now my work was
not finished I nm now
dono
Within a very short time I shall ho able
to show to all mankind that I have a ma
ch no that will revolutionize tho world
When I can exhibit a running model
which I can In a few days then I will be
ready to consider tho many propositions
that I have already received
Mr Cook Is about sixtyslx years
