TIcoNpmoGA CENTlNNIAL.-Th COM
mittee having in charge the arrangements
for the Ethan Allen centennial have
decided to give up the enterprise, owing
partly 10 the lack Of financial assistance,
partly to the severe drawback to business,
and, further, the want Of time necessary
to make the proper arrangements. 1t will
be generally regretted that the project
is abandoned. Could the arrangements
be carried out as planned, it would be an
event worthy of history.

@No public man, or private citizen
either for that matter can reasonably
hope or expect, in an active life, to en-.
tirely escape criticism in the form of
charges of dishonesty or other scsndalous
proceedings. If he can escape conviction
by his own conscience and secure a gen.
eral belief in his integrity by the evil
thinking public, he may congratulate
himself and imagine himself satisfied Of
course We must admit an immense amount
of corruption and venality. But i. should
be remembered that assertion is not
proof, that charges are not of necessity
well founded.
AT this stage of proceedings it is i'm.
possible to determine with any degree Of
certainty as 20 the foundation of the
charges lately preferred against Mr.. Secre.
tary Delano. According to all established
precedent the opposition and independent
journals will assume, and attempt to con-
vince the public, that he is guilty. So
far the charges only involve Mr.. Delanos
son, but it requires only slight stretch
Of the Independent ima eiuation to connect
the father with the sou in these transac.
tons. Whether they are true us against
the son is not yet apparent. But the
charge has been preferred and an attempt
is made at once to manufacture political
capital out OF the matter. Whatever
may be the truth as to this particular
matter, the readiness Of the leaders of
public opinion to assume guilt without
proof, is disgracelul in the extreme. 1t
Is a sad commentary on our civilization.

 Phvsician-I employed all artificial means to restore respiration, such as pressing on his chest. etc. Isaw no symptoms of poison l agree with pr. Newmark, that Mir. Ralston died of apoplexy.
 MIR. RAI.sToN's INSURANCE. The late Mir. Ralston had a large amount of insurance on his life. stated by insurance men to aggregate over S300,000. During the war; when gold was selling at 250, Mir. Ral- ston sent Sl50O0 in gold to New York on his own account, which he sold for S3I 300 in legal tenders, and the whole amount was in- vested in paid up policies on his life. Tn favor of his wife and children. Since that tune, he has taken number of extra risks, swell ling the amount as before stated to near S30O,OOO. The principal portion ofit-SI5,- 0O0-was taken by the Mutual Life lnsu- rance Company, and the balance distributed between the Equitable Home and other Eas- tern companies These liens will not he paid by the companies without severe legal strug- gle, and it may be years before the family obtain any benefit from it. A stipulation in policies provides that policy, the holder of which commits suicide. is null and void by such an act.

 Mir. Ralston is said to have made his will yesterday in favor of the creditors of the Bank of California, leaving them all his prop erty, personal and real.
 Yesterday morning Mrs. Ralston was with Mrs. Fry in excellent spirits, and told her that Mir. Ralston had lain awake until two o'clock that morning cOnversing with her about their future prospects. He requested her to take out of the house whatever souye- nirs or family relics she needed or wanted to keep, because he intended to hand over every thing to his creditors and begin the battle of life anew.-[San Francisco Call August 18th.

MORE TROUBLE AT APACHE.

The newly appointed Indian agent, Nor
 ford, arrived at his designated post, White Mountain Agency, late in August, and find ing the buildings burned and the agency de- moralized, set about gathering up the odds and ends with some success Instead of find ing the Indians all removed to San Carlos, as reported, he finds by actual count 1903 still on the White Mountain reserve and heard of 200 more on their way from San Carlos. This is the substance of his report to the Indian Commissioner, copy of which he has sent to the commander of the Militia " department. He has also applied to the comnandaDt at Camp Apache for a military force to drive from the White Mountain re- serve the company of Indian police organ ized by Indian Agent Cum, ostensibly to keep prospectors and settlers off the Indian lands, but, Morford represents, really to pre- vent the White Mountain Indians from occu- pying their legally constituted reservation. This application has been referred to General Kautz, commander of the department, and he has instructed the officers at Apache to have nothing to do with it, and not to inter fere in any manner with any differences be- tween agents, unless it shall become necessa- " to do so in order to prevent bloodshed
 Cum claims that ae is acting under orders from his superiors at Washington, as we learn from the Citizen of. the 2Sth of Au- gust, and Morford's theory is that those or ders were procured by Cum in order to ren- der his (Morfords) appointment a nulity. Without caring quarter of cent where the Indians go, or by whom managed, so long as they are kept peaceable, we submit that Morford's case seems to have some merit in it. Why he should be appointed and sent to reap in barren field is hard to understand, | and it is not strange that he should kick ! little.

pedient, giving the South its first OPP
portunity to be heard by the intelligent

ly satisfied that it will not do to repeat

opposition TO Radicalism and not re-
liable in the coming conflict which in-
wolves the existence of constitutional

demption by dishonest compromise

to support the ticket. is deaf to the
