ary 18th, 1926, From this point the re-
form spread more and more rapidly, till its
influence was felt all over the country.
Great numbers of voluntary societies were
formed. having in view the promotion of
the same object. Men of all classes acknowl-
edged its importance. Among the first 20
give their testimony against the injurious
effects of alcohol were many physicians of
the highest standing, both those employed
in offices of instruction, and such as were
engaged in the regular duties of their pro-
fession. Indeed. some of these were among
the foremost pioneers of the reform. and
the light they gladly threw upon the sub
ject was one OF the most important means
of its success. 1t is not our intention to
dwell further at present on tho history Of
thismovement. Suffice it to say, that, to
the courage and steady zeal of the noble
men who originated it, and carried it on in
a manner so worthy of their high purpose.
We owe,in some true sense. the preservation
of our land from the degradation and ruin
of a universal slavery to the power Of strong
drink If the work they begun is not yet
accomplished, still any one who compares
the present state of public opinion in re-
gard to this subject with what it was when
they began their efforts, will acknowledge
that their labor was not in vain.

IiOUSE.

WASHINGTON, D. C., March l0.-Mr Cox,
at the request of his colleague. offered
resolution reciting from the reports OF the
secretary of the treasury that between the
3l>t of January and the 24th of February,
there was an increase of coir and bullion In
the treasury 10 the amount of Sis ,000, 900
and between the cath and the 29tn of Feb
ruary there was a reduction of over $50,
OOO, 600; that these great fluctuations with
in so short time require explanation, and
instructing the committee on ways and
and means to examine the books oi the
treasury department If necessary and
the officers thereof, to ascertain the
causes of such fluctuations and also 10 as
certain whether the legal tender notes re-
ceived for the redemption of national bank

members of that committee had taken

ever had been given to the Republican MEM

mony of Marsh had been taken. tie called

\ curiOus study OF crooked humanity is
furnished by the eagerness of " independent
journalism - to seek TRANSPORTATION by
means of the Belknap case. Belknap has
behaved Gisgraeefully in Office therefore
the " independent journals " have never
circulated slanderous inventions cOntrived
for their use. never assailed prominent Re-
publicans whose record is irreproachable,
never libelled the administration in any mat
ter whatever. but have always deserved to
take rank with the brightest angels of purity
and truth 4 magical influence from the
Belknap case has transformed their calum-
MES into shining truths. This reasoning is
like that of the slanderer who claims that
all his lies against the characters or credit
of Jones, johnson, Wilson, White, Jordan,
Ames, and jackson, must be accepted as
truths, because his neighbor Hudson had be-
come bankrupt These journals have
never said much about Belknsp. He has
not been one Of their topics. Nevertheless,
they desire to have it understood, that his
disgraceful fall fully justi6es and vindi-
Gates all they have said against others.
Even the New York Sun will probably use
Belknap to cover with a sort Of heavenly
glory the whole course it has pursued since
its editor failed to be made collector OF the
port of New York. Well, it is something to
disclose a consciousness Of the need Of white
wash. This is part of the ' homage vice
pays for virtue" and shows that those who
feel it are not yet entirely beyond hope

Ex-Chief Justice Mexican, in a memorial
sent to Washington, dated Sah Lake City.
March l, speaking Of James E. Lyons tes-
timony in the Schenck investigation, says
"This testimony so far as it inculpstes me
is made up of lies without containing one
truth. This man Lyon. in the Fall of 1870,
brought suit in my court in Utah against
the owners of the Emma Mine. He failed
in an attempt to bribe me with 100000.
lie failed to make case emitting him to an
injunction. He then went to Washington,
and under the pr etence of retaining them as
counsel, attempted to bribe men in high
places to exert their political influence to
secure my removal from the bench. He
failed with some Of them and the conspiracy
failed. declare that neither while on the
bench nor before was on the bench did
own one share or one dollar in any tunnel
mining company in the world, nor in any
mine, save 200 feet in the Silver Shield Mine
in which was located without my knowl-
edge or procurement In swearing that the
other Justices were joint partners in the
Emma Mine interests, believe Lyon COM

sary, either before the COMMITTEES or . grand
or petit jury, pray that the proper cfhcsr'
