PRACTICAL JUSTICE An ex-Coun-
ty Treasurer and an ex-County Com
missioner in Pennsylvania, both
members of a plundering ring, have
been tried at Wilkesbarreo on charges
of extortion and embezzlement, ad-
judged guilty, compelled to disgorge
and sentenced to Imprisonment as
well. Strange to say, this result has
been reached with very little delay.
Prosecuting lawyers in Pennsylva-
MA are evidently less thrifty than
they are in New York, or, perhaps,
the Pennsylvania ring men had been
less prudent and saving than our
Tammany and canal operators in
this State. If they had retired
wealthy they might still have been
out of jail. N. Y. Herald.

Especial 20 the Evening Dispatch
RosEBURG, Oct. 1.-THE following
extra is issued by the Douglass M,de-
pendent: 1.-The Leeds, a vessel we'll
known on this coast, is now over ten
days due at Gardiner. Mr.. J. Ken
nedy, just from that place, says the
vessel was reported when first due
off the Umpqua bar, and two days
after she attempted to sail in and
was capsized by sqall which struck
her just as she was crossing the bar
and keeled over. This is reported
by the master of the tug at the
mouth of the river. She was not
seen after the accident occurred, nor
was any one picked up from the
shore. This leads to the belief that
the vessel either filled by water run
ming into her hold, or she drifted
upon the rocks, which caused her to
sink or dash to pieces. At last ac-
counts nothing had been picked up
from the wreck, and this satisfies
many that the vessel sank in deep
water with her officers and crew, all
of whom persisted. 1t is not known
whether there were any passengers
on board or not, and nothing will
be learned in this regard until news
is received from the port whence
she cleared"

LONDON. Oct. Sat a meeting of the
reform club in Lancaster last night, the
Right Hon. JOHN Bright made a speech
on the Eastern question and said that
he thought a meeting CT parliament was
desirable. 1t would result in q new
policy, probably under new ministry.
and would stamp the future policy of
the country with the solemn decision
that the blood and treasure Of England
shall never again be wasted in behalf of
the Ottoman powers. Turkey should be
left to tie fate which Providence de-
creed for corruption.
A Vienna correspondent of the Times
says an answer drawn up by the Couut
Andrassey to the Russian letter. was
submitted to the Emperor of Austria on
Tuesday tor his sanction. Andrassy
hao already communicated his views on
the question to Francis Joseph, who
has approved them. The letter there
fore will undoubtedly receive the Im-
perial sanction, and will be ready
for the Prussian envoy to take
with him when he leaves on
the 5th instant. The Russian
letter is the preliminary Introduction to
peace proposals. These proposals cul-
lumate in the declaration that the ap.
probation and enforcement of the re-
forms proposed by the powers cannot
be entrusted to Turkey, therefore the
powers are invited to come to an un-
derstanding about the guarantees to be
demanded to secure the application of
the reforms promised
ATHENS, Oct. 4.-The President of tho
council Of ministers. replying to the
deputation from the meeting held Oct.

neutrality.
LONDON. Oct. A special 10 the Pal
Mall Gazette, from Berlin, says the guar
anteeing powers are preparing a collec :
tive remonstrance upon the Porte to ac>
cept their proposals. 1t is hoped this
measure will be effectual. Although
the Porte has rejected the propositions
it would not be displeased if the powers
applied further pressure. so as to pro-
vide it an excuse for ultimately yield

A Belgrade dispatch says large num-
bers of volunteers are joining the re-
cruits from Germany. Fifty Bavarians
and Prussians have arrived lately.
A Ragusa telegram says four Bosnian
battalions attacked the Turks at Kiln.

hundred houses were burned and the
Turks suffered severely.
LONDON, Oct. 5-The Times dispatch
from Berlin says Russia is arming with

other movables have been taken out of

Kansas Senator'S.

The people Of Kansas have reason 10 feel
proud OF the men who represent them in
the United States Senate. Senators Ingalls,
and Harvey occupy positions OF ackuowl-
edged influence and power in that body.
From the beginning of his Senatorial career,
the former has taken a conspicuous part IN
the most Important discus and deliber-
ations his record is remarkably free OF
mistakes, and is not excelled by that OF any
OF his Older and more experienced assOci-
ates. The high standing of Mr.. Ingalls, in
tie Senate is evidenced by the fact that he
is frequently called upon TO preside in the
absence of the President pro tem. and the
great reputation he has gained throughout
the country is made manifest in the encour-
aging support he is receiving from many
leading papersfor the Vice-Presidency.
Senator Harvey has proved himself to be
a faithful, capsule and efficient friend for
the people. He has allowed no opportunity
TO pass unimproved, where he could do any
thing for the benefit of the iaboring men
the "bone and sinew of the land"-whose
interest he has especially endeavored 10
promote. Senator Harvey is one of the
few public men agains: whom not one word
OF suspicion or reproach has ever been
uttered, even By his bi,teresl political enc
mies.-Et Scot Monitor.

Ee Able and Honest.

Judge Taft stands deservedly high in
public estimation, and TO have selected
a man more eminently unalified to fill the
position, under present circumstances,
would have been exceedingly difficult. He
can afford 10 assume the difficult task Of
reforming and making respectable the
management OF the War Department, SO
thoroughly disgraced by its late. occupant
He can afford il, because he is able and
honest Nc one who knows him will for
one moment question his integrity. Cor
ruption or dishonorabls> dealings cannot
exist in his presence M reputation Of
the man and his department and dignity
will suffice 10 freeze out and drive out ey-
erybody that may have personal interests
10 serve. Under his influence everything
in the shape of corruption Will wither and
die
There are times that require great sacri-
fees Of men in the service OF their country.
We are in the midst Of these times I'm
solicited and unexpected, call has been
made upon Judge Taft To accept requires
sacrifice, but as the sacrifice viii be in
the iniere-toi the public. and of his country.
We feel sure that he will accept.-Csncia-

SOMETHING NOT EET EEyEsLED.

There were investigating comm tees OF
The Le@isia,ure last Winter and tbs Win
Ter; and there is a feeling in the public
mild that they were designed 10 cover up
more than 70 expose rascalitv. L,ey have
made come show OF exposing frauds, AID
Of convicting some Oi the small Try; bU.
the real culpriis III the bond, new county,
and Sther frauds, have been screened, while
the heavy hand OF The lag has fallen upon
the heads OF some of the lesser agents.
Rings are still powerful. We find the
Legislature appropriatins several thousand
dollars TO pay the expenses OF Attorney
General Randolph and Mr. Drought, Of
Wyandotte, for a-resting Lappin. \ re-
ward Of 500 was offered for the arrest OF
Mowry, and Mr.. Carrier delivered him to
the authorities at Topeka. Drought tFied
to get that, but failed. Then The Legisla-
tare refused 10 pay Carrier, because they
said Mowry had placed himself in his
hands, In order TO secure him the reward.
Carrier Is 4 poor Insn, and not in the ring.
Had Mowry placed himself in the hands Of
Drought, it would have been all right. and
! the money would have been forthcoming.
Next came the tampering with the Leay-
enwo.th Auditor bill. After passing the
Legislature, il was altered, and investiga-
tiun showed that Senator Thomas L. john
son, Of Leayenworth, was the one chiefly
guilty. lie testified that lie had il done,
and that the Governor was a party 10 il,
or knew Of it. The Committee reported
that johnson lied on the Governor. Bat
the evidence does not lie. The bill, a j.
passed ihe Legislature, gave the District
| Court the appointing power. Before the
law took effect, the Governor wrote 10
Judge LecOmpte, that the Probate Court
had the appointing power, and asked hiIa,
Is favor, 10 appoint johnson. Now, as
the bill had passed the Legislature in one
shape, how could the Governor know that
1t would become a law in the forged shape,
ii he was not in the secret? johnson AZ
once resigned his seat, became GisgraccI
man, and attempted 10 take his own life,
while the committee concealed the truth,
whitewashej other guilty parties, and
hushed the thing up.
How long shall this rascality continue
Some men, because they are poor and
| without influence, must 60 10 the dust, that
others, equally or more guilty, may receive
fat Land Office appointments, or be elected
10 the United States Senate.
