A SENSIBLE IDEA The Lydon Union
tells this: A novel case of moral sua-
sion appeared on the street the other
day. Horace Smiths cattle refusing to
draw load of wood in rather difficult
place, instead of being dashed and
goaded by Horace, he, like a kind heart
ed man, got some hay and laid it down
a short distance from the cattle, when
they Immediately hauled the load to it.
He moved it and they went again and
hauled the load to the spot. People are
beginning to act on the principle of a
little more feed and not quite so much
whip.

The meeting resolved that 'as the power
of eminent domain has been rightfully
asserted in the building of railroads !
and 'as the kindred power of taxation
has been legally used for their construc-
ton : and as the public land has been
literally granted for the same purpose !
therefore, railroads are but improved
highways for the people, and that the
corporations and officers thereof are pub
lie trustees, and as such, are proper sub
jects of legislative control. 1t would
be difficult to apply this principle, in
volving, as it does, complete revolution
of the present system; but, as the Bos-
ton Globe truly says, reform is so badly
needed that it is impossible to say what
experiments may be tried"

Iudinn Agcnt,s IrreEuInrItie,.

There has been considerable excitement In
the Treasury Department for several days over
some important discoveries OF Irregularities In
the accounts OF Indian agents. One OF these,
particularly, was the account OF Q. b. Jones, who
has charge Of the Flat Head Indian AFFAIRS. He
sent In vouchers for various purchases, These
were regularly passed by the Indian once. bnt
the amounts were so ex0rbltant that the Second
Auditor Of the Treasury entertained doubts rs
TO their correctness. Without saying anything
further, the parties purporting 10 have signed
the vouchers were written 10, and requested 10
forward affidavits Of the articles supplied Mr..
Jones.
When these documents were compared with
the vouchers Of Jones, q wide discrepancy was
discovered; for instance, there was one item OF
1915 charged for brick, when II appears nothing
Of the kind was supplied. In regard TO lumber
there was an Overcharge, and so with other pur.
chAses. By the time the accounts were alfted
down TO what the Auditor felt himself JUSTIFIED
In allowing, difference Of q, 900 was found. II
Ia stated AZ the Treasury Department that Jones
was a paymAster In the army during the war
and at the time OF his appointment a. Indiat
agent was deficient about 200 10 his ac
counts.-d. L0uis TfmeS, 26th.
