Ran olden memories in his heart;
The pride that severed them in life
Still kept them in that place apart.

who in truth have but their own selfish
schemes in view. Rosa and his fellows would
wielda far greater influence in behalf of Ireland
were they to abandon the business of robbing
servant girls to swell their own fortunes
while pretending to aim at the deliverance of
Ireland As honest men, engaged in honor
able occupations, their opinions would be of
infinitely more Importance among men whose
influence is worth having. The Communists
of Paris burned and slaughtered with high
hand for a time, but in the end society had to
throttle them, and did throttle them. So
with these self-constituted champions Of Ire
land. If that country ever should gain just
measure of self government, her very first
duty would be to put these scoundrels down.
just as now they hurt her chances of ad-
vancement, they would then threaten her well
fare. The man mean enough to needlessly
endanger the lives of innocent women and
children would be selfish enough to murder
any honest Irishman who might stand in the
way of his schemes. Ireland must shake off
these towards and save herself

Minority of the Committee.

THE STATE TREASURY.

The Committee Reports on the Condition of
the State Funds.
Reports were presented to both the Senate and
House yesterday morning by the legislative COM
mittee appointed for the purpose of making an
investigation relative to the condition of the
State Treasury funds The matter came up
early in the morning proceedings, and the discus
sion of the reports occupied the whole of the
days session in the House The Senate, how
ever, postponed consideration of the matter un-
til this afternoon, the Democratic members of
the body desiring to file rejoinder to the mi
nority report presented by the Republican mem
bers of the committee The majority report is
simply embarrassing" statement prepared
according to the dictaton of the Democratic
caucus, as admitted by the chairman of the
committee. The whole purpose of the docu-
ment, it is evident from a casual reading, is to
deceive the public as to the real condition of the
affairs of the Treasury. The minority report
makes some disclosures of startling character,
showing conclusively an urgent necessity for a
thorough investigation in the interest of protec-
ing the public funds.
The interest and Importance of the matter
drew an unusually large crowd of visitors to the
hall of the House to ba1r 81 debate upon the
rensssve The galleries were closely crowded and
the standing room about the Hobbies was all &C.
cupied. Several times during the speeches
the minority report, urging the necessity of an
investigation the Republ can speakers were heart
lily applauded. John j. Cooper, the Treasurer, his
son Charlie and Franklin Landers, who fgnres
in the committee report as being directly con-
cerned in the possible developments of an inves-
tigation, present during the whole of the
session. and evinced an intense interest in the
proceedings.

THE reading public may take cum grano
sails the story that there are 1900 armed
Socialists and dynamiters contemplating an
outbreak in Pittsburg. There are. doubtless
good many disconnected workmen in that
city, but we do not believe that any such
number are insane enough to attempt hostile
demonstration, the only result of which could
be speedy and overwhelming defeat. Sifted
to the grain of truth, it will be found that a
few desperate loafers are seeking to stir up
trouble, and are counting as adherents all
those who express discomfort. The great
mass Of workingmen are too wise to be de-
ceived by these officious fellows, and recog-
nize the fact that in the end law and order
must prevail The man obliged to labor for a
living would stand no show at all but for the
protection afforded by law.

untidy, and sometimes unsavory. All this,
no doubt, comes from the lack Of sufficient APP
preparation to keep them in presentablc shape
The Legislature ought to provide a sufficient
force of laborers and janitors to keep the
building and rooms clean. It should not be
expected that the Governor shall sweep out
his rooms, or that the Auditor, Treasurer or
Secretary of State shall sweep out their rooms,
or make their fires, or clean their spittoons.
These Offices represent the dignity of the
State, and ought to be provided with sufficient
force to make them at least comfortable to
those who may have business to transact with
the officials of the State.

ABOUT this time of year look out for conflicts
more or less violent between religionists and
the votaries of the giddy waltz. A Congrega-
tional church in New York is disintegrating, the
choir has already gone to pieces, and the Sun
day school is in state of eruption, all because
the superintendent of the latter gave Dan
tesque illustration ON the blackboard in which
dancers were pictured on the direct road to
hell. In Pennsylvania town much feeling has
been aroused over the expulsion from church Of
woman whose daughters gave a dancing party
in her absence. and for whose conduct she de-
clined to apologize to the minister. After her
expulsion she died suddenly, and the minister
in commenting on the fact, said the calamity
which must inevitably overtake all who justified
dancing had befallen the unfortunate sister as
he had predicted. It is truly motley crowd
which jostles along the road to heaven, and if
the pastors aid masters find it difficult, with all
their steadfastness of tread, to avoid wandering
from the straight and narrow way. it is but natu-
raj that they should fail to realize that dancing
feet do not always stray, and may even climb
the heights in advance of the earth-crowned
saints.

The statute concerning the keeping and Gus
tody OF the money of the State was passed in
1899 and contempates that the State shall fur
nlsh to the Treasurer room, together with such
safes and vaults for the security and safe keep
ing OF the money as shall render the same alb
solutely secure against fire and burglars. An
other section of the same statute provides
that the Treasurer shall not deposit the
money with any bank, person or per-
sons, and afixes severe penalties
for making any such deposit. 1t is a notorious
sage. and which will appear upon first sight of
the vaults and safe in the Treasurers office, that
for years the State has not furnished the Treas
urer any place in which it would be safe to keep
any considerable amount of money. The Treas
urer, therefore, is and has been for years com
PEELED to deposit the money in banks. and prob
ably with other parties, Notwithstanding the at
tending risks and the statute aforesaid.
Inc Supreme Court of Indiana has held. sub
stantially, in the case of county treasurers that
they are absolute insurers of the money with
which they are chargeable and that they are not
excusable from paying at the time and in the
manner prescribed by law. on account of any
loss by them from fire, burglars or other causes,
but that they cannot be charged with any inter
est which they may receive from the funds The
statute does not in terms make the Treasurer of
State absolutely responsible for the amount of
money that comes into his hands, in case the

or negligence on his part. IL is
fact as appears from the books
OF the State Auditor that the State has never
at any time received any interest from any de-
posits or loans mace by the Treasurer. 1t is, in
the opinion of a majority of the committee. in
the light of decisions of the courts, doubtful
question under the present law, and considering
the fact that no secure safes and vaults are fur
nished the Treasurer whether he could be held to
account for any interest he might receive and
also held absolutely responsible for the payment
OF the money with what he is chargeable in case
the same should be lost without his fault or neg
hgence. The majority of the committee there
fore recommend that the statute be so amended
as not to prohibit the Treasurer from depositing
the money in banks, and so as to hold the Treas
urer absolutely responsible for the payment ac-
cording to law of the amount of money of which
he received or is chargeable with. no matter
whether he may have lost any part of it or not.
and that his bondsmen shall be absolutely
liable in the same manner to the
extent of the penalty of their bond; and the com
mlttee embrace such amendment in the bill
herewith returned.

THE ENEMIES OF IRELAND,

Ireland will never be delivered by anything
never have and never can govern a country
If Ireland were in possession of autonomy to-
day, and Rosa and his gang were citizens of
that country, it is altogether probable they
would be imprisoned before half dozen years
had passed Men who attempt assassination
for political reasons will not long hesitate to
murder for personal reasons. Rossas own
declaration shows that he believes in murder
for personal offenses. The best thing the
Irish people can do is to shake off and disown
these men, and thus appeal to the manhood of
civilized society. When this country was deliv-
cred from the thraldom of laws made in England,
the best men in the land were in the fore
tfron of the movement, both in the field of
memorable struggle we do not recall even
one case of assassination. The patriots OF
the Revolution would have scorned
such infamy, and there is little doubt that
had one of them covertly sought the life Of
George III, the offender would have received
no sympathy in his crime. True it is an un
equal fight between Ireland and England, but
not more SO than seemed the struggle between
the American colonies and the mother gov
eminent The American patriots, by tneii
heroism in putting their own lives into the
balance of war, won the applause of the or
looking nations of the world, and enlisted t-it
sympathy of the best men of the age. The
! men who signed the Declaration of Independ
ence and all who fought for liberty, from
Lexington and Concord to Yorktown, would
have scorned to descend to the der Of WON
