WASHINGTON NOTES.

1t Is stated at the treasury department
that one of the incoming collectors of in
ternal revenue is so superstitious that he
objected to taking possession of his office
on the list proX., because the date fell on
Friday.
Public Printer Rounds will make des-
perate effort this year to get the hundreds
of thousands of copies of the annual report
of the Commissioner of Agriculture out on
time. There has been much complaint
over the delays of the printing Office I'm this
respect In the past. Sometimes the reports
have not been printed for two or three
years after they were issued.
In letter to Secretary Folger on the
work of the internal Revenue for the past
year. Commissioner Raum reports that the
entire collections of the l26 Offices through
out the United States amounted to S146,-
SIC, 273.07, and during the past six years the
COLLECTIONS have aggregated S74S, S31 OH OF.
The expenses of collection for the last fiscal
year, including the expenses of the Com
missioner's Office in Washington will be
found on final adjustment not to exceed
So, 10S, 800, or less than 80 per cent. on the
amount collected. The expenses of collec-
ton for six years have been about S27,0S7,-
800, or 6-l0 per cent. on the amount col
lected. This sum has been discussed with
out loss to the government. From special
reports of collectors In respect to the con-
dition of the service throughout the coun-
try, there Is no reason TO believe that any
combinations exist TO defraud the govern

Total yield of wheat. ......


According to the exhaustive summary of
Nj. Estiennes' annual review of the markets
of the world, issued at Marseilles, Spain is
the only country in the Northern hemis-
phere from which the reports are unfavor-
able. In France, crops of all grains are
above the average. England taking 100 as
the average, shows the following result:
wheat 9?.2, barley 95.4, oats 1851, roots 107.-
l, potatoes 1894. The wheat crop will prob
ably be 10,000000 quarters for consumption,
leaving 100000 quarters to be supplied
from foreign countries. The London Times
summarizing these results says: Never
during the time since these reports were
collected has the harvest in the Northern
hemisphere been so good all round. We
usually had to report deficiency either in
Europe or America. This year there is alb
solutely none The world has over an av-
erage harvest, and with such a harvest the
year is likely to be one of cheap abund-
ance.
Reports on the condition of the corn crop
from AS points, covering all the great corn
growing states, make the following show

has filled well.

THE HON. W. B. C. BROWN.

The sudden death yesterday of the hon.
ored citizen whose name heads this article
will be heard of with equal surprise and
sorrow all over the State. In this commu.
nifty, where he had long lived, his eminent
probity and genial kindliness of nature
had made him very popular. He was in
the prime of life, and had behind him a
useful and honorable career, while before
him seemed to loom greater distinction
than he had yet attained. He had served
in Sacramento as County Clerk, and in the
State Administration as State Controller.
In both these offices he won golden opin.
ions from all sorts of people. As State
Controller he exhibited the most scrupu.
lous integrity, combined with high order
of ability. 1t is not too much to say that
he was the most prominent Democrat in
California, and that the hopes of the party
depended largely upon him. At the time
of his death he was a candidate for the
Governorship, and his past services and his
high standing in the party made it almost
certain that he would have secured the
nomination had he lived. 1t is quite
unavailing to do even meager justice to a
good and talented man in the course of a
brief article. In all such cases it is the
works of the dead which must speak for
them the friendships cemented by their
virtues the esteem created by their rec
titude OF purpose and principle. w. B. c..
Brown was man of far more than ordi-
nary force of character and intellectual
attachments. His Democracy was not a
narrow and iliiberal doctrine. Though an
active politician, and vigorous antagonist
in a campaign, his temper was so mild and
his instincts so gentlemanly, that none of
his opponents were ever made to feel the
smart of personal vituperation. He was,
indeed, thoroughly manly man, honorable
and upright in all his dealings, faithful to
all his engagements, true friend and a
formidable enemy, full of enthusiasm for
his party, but empty of all mean hatreds
for those who held opposite convictions.
1t is but few days since he delivered a
lecture in this city, on Immortality. "
He sought to demonstrate, from the familiar
facts of existence, the strong probability
that the grave does not end all. Even
then the shadow of the grave was i'm
pending over his own head, but he could
not know that in less than a week he
would be called upon to solve the awful
problem for himself. We remember him
as an honorable foe in politics as a warm
hearted friend in private life. The com.
manity deplores his untimely taking off,
and sympathizes most sincerely with his
bereaved family. Throughout the State his
death will be recognized by his party, and
by many who never voted the Democratic
ticket, as a public and general loss, and as
one which in many respects cannot be

THE LATEST FASHIONS IN LYNcH1Ne

1t seems that the administration of
Lynch law is in these days of general pro-
gress being brought down to quite fine
point, and that when it is practiced most
deliberately the effect is not much less
impressive than that of a legal execution
For example, at Kokomo, in Indiana, on
the Sd instant, mob surrounded the Jail
where man charged with an assault upon
child was confined, broke down the
doors, took out the prisoner, and marched
with him to a neighboring bridge. There
the proceedings were opened in the most
orthodox way, for the dispatch states that
the Rev. Mr.. McClane was present and
" offered a prayer" After the prayer had
been offered the prisoner was invited to
confess his guilt, whereupon ne admitted
that he had stolen horse and watch, but
denied the graver charge. Then the mob
! mounted him on box, tied his hands and
legs, and asked him if he had any remarks
to make, He responded by singing
WIN SACbS SObAp SSuASJ CCS bllesb W NAV {
sis Kept Green" Whether the mob
pledged itself to obey this injunction does
not appear, but it would seem probable
from the general thoughtfulness and con-
sideration which it showed. The prisoner,
having finished his hymn, and thus showed
somewhat classical taste in dying, like the
tabled swan, in song, requested the crowd
to hang him decent, and this last wish
was forthwith scrupulously carried out.
The mob in this case appears to have been
troubled with no sense Of embarrassment,
and to have gone about its work with Q
curious confidence in the legitimacy of its
purpose. 1t may be judged from this that
at Kokomo the practice of lynching has
been kept up by frequent experiments, and
it also follows that the regular process Of
the law in that part of Indiana must have
fallen into contempt and distrust.

one was by the wanton murder OF James

most deservedly popular and most highly
esteemed citizens had been butchered by
miserable scoundrel who was running

trong, and almost universal. But though

strong, and almost universal. But though
| this disposition existed, the people of Sac
ramento were, to their credit be it said,
incapable Of acting upon the inspiration of
the moment They had been educated to
respect and abide by the law. They knew
that in this county no failure of justice was
to be feared. They could not but feel con-
fdent that the murderer would receive the
full penalty of his crime with az little de-
lay as possible. And therefore, though
they assembled at one time in sufficient
force to have overwhelmed the small body
of police guarding the City Jail, they alb
stained from any overt act of violence.
1t has been said that this was only be-
cause they lacked leaders. But there
were hundreds of determined men
present who could have led them, and who
would have been willing to do SO but for
that habit of reliance upon law which,
after all, constitutes the main distinction
between civilized and semi. civilized COM
munities. Had the murderer been
wrested from the custody of the police,
and hanged, perhaps there would have
been no regret for his end, but Sacra-
mento would have very soon realized that
she had discredited her record as peaceful
and law abiding city, and that she had
committed terrible mistake. The con-
duct of the police and the militia at what
seemed the critical juncture was all that
could be desired. The occasion was such a
strain upon the public mind as very sell
dom occurs, but it is matter for general
congratulation that the sober second
thought prevailed, and that we have not
causelessly impeached our own institutions
by allowing it to be believed abroad that
we were obliged to seek justice through
illegitimate methods.
