The UnIiclxiest Man on the Pacific
SIOnp
81. Louis Globe Democrat,

st. Louis Globe Democrat.
The unluckiest man on the Pacific slope,
in point of wealth, is Senator Jones, of
Nevada. There has perhaps never been
so vast a fortune so quickly scattered as
that of Jones'. In spite of popular belief
Senator Jones to-day is poor, comparative
ly speaking. When he was elected to the
Senate in 1878 he was worth at least $10,-
100000, To-day he is not worth $4,000
above his debts, and his Congressional
salary is no longer despised as a source OF
income. 1t would be hard to tell where
Jones' fortune has gone, or more correctly
speaking, hard to tell where it hasn't
gone. No man ever sunk so much money
in chimerical schemes, invested so much
in bogus friendships, or became so easy
a prey to financial sharks as Jones,
He sunk $2,000,000 hard money
in mines at Panamint, Cal, which
have never yielded a dollar. He sunk
another million in the Sumner mine, in
Southern California, He built railroad
in Southern California twelve miles long,
and it cost enough to have had every tie
of mahogany and every rail of silver. The
Central Pacific afterward bought it for
about $1,000 mile. He bought every
ranch ever offered him; indeed he bought
one in Nevada which has never been
located to this day. Jones' agents could
never find it. He started an ice factory in
New Orleans, lie never saw the factory,
and never but once or twice the man who
got him into it, He opened the st. James
Hotel in New York, and of course it
never paid. The last cruel wine that fate
had in store for Jones was the ''Sierra
Nevada deal,' as Californians all call it,
of four years ago. On a mere prospect
the stock was jumped from SO share to
$275. Jones got in at about 5000, ON the
drop. The stock is selling now for less
than So a share, The Bank of Nevada is
believed to be carrying Jones' stock for
him yet. At the time Senator Jones was
talked of so strongly for Secretary of the
Treasury, Californians, who remembered
how well Jones had taken care of his own
money, could not repress a smile that he
should be thought competent to take care
of the peoples.

Herr Most.

Herr Johann Most, the Socialist, recent
ly arrived in this country from Europe,
to organize and spread Socialism in
America, is described in the Chicago
Tribune as below medium in stature, and
without anything in his appearance to
betoken the qualities Of leader. His
complexion is fair, eyes blue, long NOUS
tache and closely trimmed whiskers,
speaks English but not fiuently. He says
the men of Europe engaged in the Social
istic movement are the most intelligent Of
the working classes, and that they have
the sympathy of the people, so that when
revolution comes, as come il will, it will
have the people at its back. The Anar-
chists in France and NIhilists in Russia
are allied to the Socialists in Germany,
and the objects of all are
related. They expect to overthrow
tyrants and crush opposition by revolu-
tiOnary force, having no confidence in re-
formatory measures, those in Germany
proving only a mOckery. They seek not
only political but social revolution, but
do not expect much from assassinatiOns,
their methods being agitati0ns by speech
and publications, which, when not per-
mitted openly, are conducted secretly.
Their aim is sensation to set people to
thinking, but occasionally a chapel may
be blown up or assassination perpetrated
in self-defense. Every opportunity must
be seized, and agitation must 90 ON by
every means attainable.
Herr Most is a bOOkbinder by trade,
joined the InternatiOnals in 1868 i'm Swift
erland, and went to Austria as one
of the deputation sent by the sixty thou
sand men who marched to Vienna to de-
mand their rights of the Parliament. lie
was arrested for high treason and SEN
fenced to five years Imprisonment, and is
now banished from Belgium, Germany
and Austria, besides being under sentence
of two years Imprisonment if he should
return to France, which he says he is not
| likely to do. He was nineteen months in
prison in England; had to wear cOnvicts
| clothes and sleep in a cell, without books,
papers or writing materials, which was
| severer treatment than he received in
the prisons of Germany. He was in
vited here, and his business is to
''enlighten the people of the United States
as to the aims and character of the move
ment in Europe, while he leaves to others
better informed than himself the agitation
of needed reforms here. Prince KrapOt-
kline, the Russian Nihilist, Herr Most
| thinks, would soon visit America, if he
could be released from his present Gun
justiiable" Imprisonment in France. The
revolution, he confidently anticipates, will
come first in Russia and France, while in
England, more conservative, it will come

suffered for Twenty Years.

Hon. Joshua Tuthill, of East Saginaw,
Michigan, SAYS: "COunt me among the
enthusiastic friends of Hunts Remedy.
1t has proven in my case all you claim for
it. Having suffered for about twenty
wears with severe disease Of the kidneys
(which our local physicians pronounced
Bright's disease), l made a journey East
to consult the eminent DIR. Haven, of
Hamilton. New York, of whose fame in this
specially had heard much, DR.. Haven eX-
amined me carefully and simply said; GO
and Get a bottle of Hunts Remedy and take
according to directions,' After having
travelled SO far for treatment, it struck me
as rather funny to be directed to take a
medicine which might have bought with
i'm a stones throw of my own door; but l
was in the doctors hands, and of course
followed his advice, and right glad was l
that did so, for before had taken Hunts
Remedy half a dozen times l found i'm
mense benefit from it, and by continuing
the use of it for limited time l recovered
from my trouble entirely, and am to-day,

Michiganders. The world is indebted TO
YOU, sir, for the PRONUNCIATION Of such a
medicine, and / hope you may not go with

CIDcln7lltl I}NleS-OtuF.
The New York Tribune indirectly an
nOunces that Mr.. Blaine has positively
withdrawn from the political arena. The
evidence is now pretty strong that the
heir is more or less sincere in his purpose
to forever ''banish the the canker of am
bilious thoughts" To retire from hope
less contest is no proof of uncommon sa-
gacity, but it is about as shrewd thing as
Mr.. Blaine ever did.

The Congressional Record is cloak for
indecency, tail feather for vanity, a
stalking horse for dishonesty, a salve for
wounded self-love, a crutch for lame dig
nifty, step-ladder for personal ambition,
a convenience for the shirks, a waste-pa-
per basket for unappreciated oratory. In
short, it is anything and everything eX-
cept what it pretends to be.
The official journal of Congress should
either be reformed and run on square
principles or abolished altogether.

Rotten to the Roots.

The organ may be correct. 1t may be
that corruption would perYade the very
machinery by which the public service is
to be reformed; that the examining COM
missioners would accept brides for recon-
mending unfit persons for office, and thus
bring a great scandal upon the country,
instead of a great reform. But what are
we TO think of party whose central organ
sets so low an estimate upon its honesty!
If Republicanism has become so debauch-
ed by excuses that its officials cannot be
trusted to do their duty without brides
surely it is time that Republicanism were
driven from all the high places it occu-
pies,

A Test of Sincerity.

1t is to be regretted that the amendment
submitted by Mr.. Pugh, of Alabama, pro
viding for the examination OF the clerks
now employed in the departments within
specified periods of time from the passage
of the bill was rejected, and by nearly a
party vote, Messrs. Bayard and Camden
being the only Democrats voting with the
Republicans against the amendment. 1t
would have tended TO secure, in accord
ance with the fundamental principle of
the bill, an efficient and, at the same time,
non-partisan civil service in the depart
ments to which the bill applies. Its re-
lection by a majority compassionate one
single exceptiOn-ot members OF the doml-
nant party throws an air OF lnslacerlty
over their new-found zeal for reform.
