clearly shown, in fact il is difficult to shew
as all the acts which John Sherman says
he did with wicked heart and malice
prepense resulted in Sherman's benefit and
not his own, but Sherman is high di e
nitary in the republican party.and must not
be found guilty, hence Pitney must have
had a design of some sort. the logic is ir-
resistable and cannot be avoided. Now
Sherman had carriage which needed re-
pairs to the amount Of forty dollars. and
those repaias worth forty dollars
were executed and bill

OFFICIAL MEANNEss.

There is one charge of which Street
Commissioner Warren stands accused
which, if proven, will have the effect OF
lowering him in the estimation of all hon
orable men; it is that in his capacity OF
employing men to work on the streets and
public Improvements. he extorted money
from them as the price at which they
would be allowed to continue at work. II
this is true it is deserving of the most
stringent rebuke and punishment. Men
have sworn that they were forced; under
penalty of having TO quit work, of sub
scribing from one to five dollars "a large
amount for them, to fund to present MT.
Warren with a watch or some other pres
ent) 1t would seem strange that any man
would desire present bought by any such
means, even if he was entirely innocent of
any completely in its procuring, for the
amount Of money that the day laborers on
our streets subscribed individually is &
much larger amount to them than the ag
gregate could be to him. The claim is
made on Mr.. Warren's part that he was
not only ignorant of these subscriptions,
but that they were entirely voluntary .on
the part of the men who made them
This is, unfortunately, matter of consid-
cradle just doubt. In the first place it is
not at all likely that men who made volun-
tary subscriptions of this character for the
purpose of buying an instrument, would
after the money had been given, wait for
the length of time that these men had to
before any use was made of it and not
make complaint of the delay, or enquire as
to what became of the money. II they gave
it freely out of pure love for Mr.. Warren
and for the purpose of making him pres
emit, they would have been anxious to have
him get it, and would have been asking
questions about it, while if they paid it as
a condition of keeping their place, they
would have regarded the money as lost
anyhow, and have had no more concern
about it.
As to Mr.. Warren's ignorance about the
entire matter, Mr. Keohler testified that
one of the orders for five dollers was in
Mr.. Warren's hand writing. If this. charge
is proven, it is serious one, and should
be correspondingly dealt with.

ONE DENIAL.

John Sherman has denied that Pitney
testified before the investigating committee
to any letters from either him or Mrs. Sher-
man eliminating them. 1t is of course a
matter impossible to be determined now
whether any such testimony was given, but
in the meantime the question is asked; in
asmuch as this is the first allegation that
Sherman has denied. is,it the first one that
he could deny?

EXPORTS.

The protec tive tariff is republican pro
ject and the Chicago Tribune is republic
can paper. but every once in while the
aforesaid paper raises up in its wrath and
denounces the tariff in the tones it de-
serves. It has taken up the early demon
strated fact that high tariff on imports
practically operates as an equally high tax
on exports, thus confining our manufac-
turers to home markets and shutting
them off from the wider ones of the world.
The Tribune anent this phase of the ques-
ton delivers itself as follows;
THE present barbarously-devised tariff
prevents our country from becoming an
exporter of manufactures, as it operates
as an export tax; it prohibits manufAc-
lures, except for the limited home market,
by raising prices too high. 1t prohibits
our mills making goods that can be sold
outside the United States. leaving to other
countries not only the trade with the world,
but also a trade even with the United
States, where they introduce their goods
despite our protective tariff. In the mean
time those branches of American industry
and labor which are not protected are ex.
panding their productions and expectations
over the world, and are reaping the re-
wards and profits of unrestricted trade.
Their markets are as extensive as civiliza-
ton, while American manufacturers ale in
the chains of tariff that prohibits expor-
tation of fabrics by causing their price to
be too high for foreign markets.
In support of this assertion, THAT pro-
lection does not protect, and is q duty on
exports,) the following tables are evidence.
The value of the principal articles of Amer
lean production which are not protected

EormaI Notes.


The school opens tomorrow after one
days vacation, but all the students are
anxious to get to work again. If study
is hard work, examinations are decided
ly harder. There will be large num-
Der of new students and few are leaving,
consequently the roll will be very much
enlarged.
The drama from old Curiosity Shop"
which the students are preparing to give
at the Whitley opera house soon, is
known as exits Experience" 1t will
be accompanied by calesthenic drill, a
good essay and some music. In prepar-
alton it is advisable to read part third of
this popular tale. The proceeds of the
entertainment are to be divided between
the musical department and the Kin
dergarten enterprise. This latter is
something which Emporia needs much,
and it is hoped the citizens will give it
their aid and countenance.
On Thursday evening a few couples
of our students gathered and took the
Misses George and Partch by surprise
and were in turn surprised by the mag
nificent way in which they were enter
tanned. We are all willing to be sur
prised that way again.
The lyceum had a very interesting
session this week. Prof. Pirkey lee
tured to them and all were highly in
structcd and we'll pleased.

Death of Mrs. Bolinger.

Mrs. 1. G. Bolinger, whose illness was
noted in the News a few days since,
died at the residence of her husband, in
the southwestern part of the city, at 3
O'Clock Saturday morning, aged about
% years. Her disease was malarial fever,
of type which seemed to defy the skill
of her medical attendants and occasioned
much suffering which was borne with
great patience and Christian resigna-
ton. The deceased was devoted wife
and mother, and her husband and three
surviving children are stricken with
grief over their great and irreparable
loss.
Mr.. Bolinger started in the evening with
the remains for Richmond, Pennsylva
mia, the former home of the deceased
and he will be followed in his mourn
full mission by the sincere sympathy o.
his many friinds in this city.
