Mr.. Milllken Makes Minority Report

We have before told how the Democratic
members of the House Committee on Expendi-
lures in the Department Of Ut ,tice took snap
Judgment on the Republican minority by giving
report to the news apers for publication be-
fore the latter could read the printed evidence
or prepare minority report. The sole object
OF TINS investigation was to obtain campaign
material for the Democrats but it failed to de-
veiope anything new or important, and 50 they
Issued stump speech. in the guise of report
which the four Republicans on the committee
did not sign. The report was received bv Mr.
Milliken at his home in this city Just as he was
starting for Ohio and he DELAYED his departure
to write minority report. which. rs we learn
from the New York iIprads Washington cor
respondence, was issued from the Government
printing office on Thursday last This CORE
spondent gives the opening paragraph az fol
lows:
In the recommendation of the foregoing re-
port to supplant the fee system with one Of

practicable without weakening the enforce
ment of the laws, fully concur. 1t is un-
fortunately true that The former system has Il
tendency to foster Il esprit Of peruuion"

that the total value of the Canadian fisheries for

$l34, 100 over the value of the production Of
1882. not including the catch in Manitoba and
other portions of the Northwest, estimated at
about S54 900. "From the report" he SAYS lit

Who the Is.

The following, from the Ceur d'Alene
Pioneer, should settle the question: One
of the most interesting personages in the
camp is Mrs. A. M. Edgington, who came
here early last Spring as the veritablt
widow for whom Pritchard located the
town of Murray. She is q woman apparent.
ly about forty-five years Of age and Of hercu.
lean proportions, but of q quiet and digni.
fed mien. In conversation she ia
peculiarly apt and courteous, and evinces a
knowledge of Western parlance that shows
she ia no stranger to mining life. She
came here from Missouri. and had resided
with her husband in Virginia City, Nevada,
for seventeen years. At that place she was
reputed to be quite wealthy. The decline
OF mining securities and the death Of her
husband left her with limited means, and
since then she has been engaged in various
pursuits in the mining camps OF Montana
and Idaho. She claims to have advanced
money to Mr.. Pritchard on sundry occa-
sions, IN the hope of retrieving her fortune,
and by this means Turing her to persevere
in the task of finding q mine. Last Friday
Mrs. Edgington, in company with several
lady friends, paid a friendly visit to the
widow" boys, or ''%orphans," as they are
pleased to be called. II was her first visit
to Murray, and the party were sgreeably
astonished at the little city which fills the
valley at this point.
