U A hi BOOKS.

Senator Davis, of West Virginia,
charged, in a speech in the Senate re-
Gently, that it was a notorious fact that
the books Of the Treasury Department
at Washington had been o~utrageously
mutilated by the Republican officials who
have had charge of them during the last
twenty years. There were, he said,
erasures and m%utilations, and in some
cases whole pages were missing. Sena-
tors Dawes and Ingalls, admitted during
the debate the truth of the charges, but
commended that the correctness of the
accounts could be verified by other records
and documents. A great many well
meaning people have come to believe that
it would not be a bad idea for the Ameri-
can people to call for general settlement
and squaring of accounts by Government
officials. Once in twenty years is not
too often to demand a balance sheet. No
private individual of ordinary business
prudence and caution would think of
allowing his clerk or agent to conduct his
affairs for one-half of that period with
out a showing as to how matters stood
all around. The people owe it to them
selves to be equally cautious, and we
shall be greatly surprised if hundreds of
thousands Of level headed independent
men do not vote the National Democratic
ticket this fall with the sole view of get
ting a balance sheet from fat Republican
officials who have been keeping the books
of the government to suit themselves for
so many years. Commenting on the un-
trustworthy character of the management
of affairs at Washington, the Springfield
Republican forcibly says:
"The speech of Senator Davis, of West
Virginia, on the erasures and mutilations
in the Treasury Department, will be apt
to stimulate a gentle desire on the part
of many people of an impartial turn for
another party to get hold of the Treasury
Department. These changes may all be
explained and justified, as Senators Dawes
and Ingalls, say, by other records and ac-
counts, presumably not mutilated /; still
it would be highly satisfactory to have
this demonstrated by hostile critics in
full possession of the Treasury Depart
ment. Corrections and cuts and scrap
ings and missing leaves prove nothing,
far from it; but if the stockholders of
any bank here in Springfield found dis
~crepancies between the statements OF the
cashier and the teller, and a few pages
gone here and there in the ledger, and
knife erasures scattered through the other
books, no matter how complete the ex-
PLANTATION might be, the stockholders
would feel a good deal like letting some
body loose to rummage the things from
the inside. A change is healthy met in
a while"

VS.. RAILWAY STOCKS

Railroad stocks have lately rome to
smash in New York. The boom had
lasted for nearly a year, but the decline
finally came, as it is sure to come when
prices for any description of property has
been unduly inflated. Some of the min.
ing papers of the East assert that the
decentralization of the railway market is
going to result in benefit to the mining
share market. The New York Daily
Mining News, discussing this phase of
the question, has the following:
SIS it not time for a community long
welded to railway speculation to consider
the inducements offered by the growing
mining industry? The mining interests
presents a market a thousand fold more
inviting either for investment or specula-
tion. 1t has the solid basis of a bullion
product of 500, 600, 900 a year, and
capable of expansion. It is
represented in the market by securities
now selling frequently at less than one.
half their certain and demonstrated value.
Its legitimacy is further indicated by the
large investments made by the leading
men Of every line of business activity.
Its safety and its exceeding capacity for
profit are demonstrated by many we'll
known examples of remarkable success.
1t lacks only n thing. 1t has secured
abundant support from conservative in.
v~estors, but it has not yet enlisted the
attention of the spectators. Very little
OF the speculative capital of the country
has ever been interested in mining. The
stocks OF the best mining corporations
languish because there is no speculation.
Now that the railway market forbids any
rational investment, is there not a chance
that the unparalleled attractions Of the
market may receive considera-
ton :"

Corruption in High Plaees.
CHICAGO, May ia Journal Washing
ton special says: At a meeting Of the House
Railroad Committee to-day, a letter max
ing charges of corruption and bribery
against a Pacific railroad company, written
by ]. A. George. a contractor, was submit
ted. The letter charges that 5000 0 in
money, and 500, 900 worth of land grant
bonds were paid to a United States Senator.
and that 81 900, 900 worth Of bonds. were
distributed among members of the House.
The writer says he can produce the evil
dence and furnish the witnesses to sustain
the charges. and asks for an investigation.
No action has been taken in regard to the
letter, the committee desiring first to as
certain as to the responsibility of the
writer, and whether he is not merely en-
gagged in a stock jobbing affair, before ask
ing the House to order an investigation.
The matter has caused quite a sensation
among the members who have been in
formed about the letter.

George G. Gorham has been called
pretty much everything that is mean by
the California press. The latest blast is
to dub him a hoodoo. The Alta joins
with Senator Booth that Gorham's touch
is contamination. 1t says: "Gorham
has quit identifying himself with the
Grant movement, in his letters from
Washington. If he had never begun it,
it would have been much better. Our
State Convention instructed against Cor
ham. not against Grant. 1t was Gorham's
oficious thrusting Of himself to the front
that induced the Convention to pledge
the delegates. So that, once more,
George was just powerful enough to hurt
the man he wished to aid. It will be a
miracle if the Grant movement survives
his continued advocacy. He is a "hoo-
doo."

should they 90 that way the Grant boom
uould receive such an impetus as to make
the silent man almost certainly the nomi-
nee at Chicago. The fight for the Illinois
delegation, however, promises to be a Bit
ter one, with the chances so nearly evenly
balanced as to render speculation with
anv degree Of certainty ont of the ques-
tion. But State pride always carries an
influence in such contests, and on this
ground alone we regard Grants chances
as the best. Our dispatches inform US
that Washburne has telegraphed his sup
pcrters and friends to go for Grant. If
they obey his instruction, why then the
Blaine men had as well retire from the
field. We have been wont all along to
regard the movement In favor OF wash
burne as a feint to help the Third
Termers.
Alabama holds her Convention May

States. So the result will be pretty well
known by the end of the week. At this
Grant leads Blaine by about 70
votes, should all hands stand up to their
work, and in the event of Illinois, Min

he will stand to receive the nomi.

The events of to-day will mark an epoch
