Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1886-06-25


We remember TO have read that when
Polk was President he placed money be-
longing to a ward of his In the hands Of Mr..
Corcoran, the banker, 10 invest, and that gen.
tleman purchased government bonds with it.
Meeting the President afterwards he told
him that he had made good thing for him.
The bonds had gone up and he had sold at
profit Mr. Polk expressed surprise at the
transaction, but refused to take the money,
saying that the President Of the United
States must not speculate directly or indi.
rectly in the securities of the government OF
which he, MAS the head.
When Washington, then private citi-
zen. was made the recipient Of gilt of $780,
600 in stock in the Potomac and James
River Canal, he declined the offer because
lac did not deem II honorable TO accept, even
from State, what was intended as compen-
sliion for public services, but the Legisla-
tdre insisting upon the gin, he turned it
over to educational institutions.
The question seems now, naturally, to
arise, how many statesmen of the present
time would have refused the profit which
banker Corcoran was ready to pay TO Mr.
Polk, and how many of them are particular
about how and where they get stock in
corporate enterprises? AS matter Of fact,
is it not now true that most public men are
interested personally In dozens of schemes
which have their origin in the bodies OF
Congress. 1t is well to contrast these vari.
ous epochs occasionally, and il is also well
when members OF Congress have lost that
nice sense Of honor which should make
them refuse Indignantly to act as attorneys
Tor corporations interested in legislation, To
deal with them as criminals are dealt with.

A SAD CHANGE.

We remember the period in the legislative
history Of this country when it was not ne
cessary for member of the United States
Senate to introduce bill like that of Sena-
tor Beck, making it illegal for Senator or
Representative to act as attorney for rail-
road or other corporation enjoying charters
or other privileges conferred by Congress.
IL is fact well known that Congresses
are not usually corrupted by outright bribes.
Their wise members are retained as attor-
neys, and Of course it is not their votes
which are bought, but their time and ser.
vices. 1t was thus that Garfield served the
DeGolyer crew, and as hundreds of other
statesmen who have been held up as models
OF purity for the emulation Of the young
have g.wn rich in the public service "hon-

The account Of the mutiny on board the
American ship Frank N. Thsyer, during the
first week in January, while bound from
Manila for New York, reads more like a work
of absurd fiction than the record of estab.
lished fact James A. MacKnight, the United
States consul at St. Helena. has made an in
vestigation, and hnds that the captain. Rob
ert X. Clarke OF Long Island, had a crew of
% men including two Indian coolies of the
Philippines These latter seemed harmless
creR ures, and made no disturbance until
at midnight of January 2 when the captain
was called on deck by the watch. As he ran
up the companion way be was cut on the
head by one of the coolies. They grappled
and the captain received a stab Ia the left
side, but he succeeded in retreating to his
cabin and locking the door. Not know ing
how many had mutinied be refused to admit
a sailor who was hard pressed by the coolies
The man at the hem and the mate were
soon despatched by the two mutineers, and
the rest OF the crew we're panic stricken.
The captains wife dressed bis fearful wounds
A soTtie was made by six OF the crew upon
the coolies, who killed four and drove the
Others back to the fOrecastle, which the coolies
succeeded IN fastening up 30 that the remain
der Of the crew could not escape. This WAS
the extraordinary situation during that night,

Of the 4lh the wounded captain being in
prisoned at one end Of the ship, the crew at
the other, one man in the bath room aud an
other bid in the rigging, and all without food
or drink. The two coolies meantime we're
amdships living on the fiat OF the land, "
they having forced a Chinese cook to serve
them with the choicest stores Of the larder.
Captain Clarke concluded that by the
evening OF the I b be would be unable to
walk, and so, pistol 10 hand, he staggered to
the bathroom, where he found the sailor
who had locked bimself in. The situation
was explained at once, and the sailor, Hen.
dricson by name was given the captains re-
vover aud he drove the mutineers from a
fortified position they bad built. One of the
coolies Was wounded and finally plunged into
the sea. Soon the crew we're liberated from

Ell Gov. st. John OF Kansas, who has just
come home from q ltcturing tour in the
South in the Interest of prohibition, con-
fesses to having had his views of that sec
tion completely changed. This is what he
said in an address before the American Tenn
snce Union in New York last Sun ley even.
ing:
A little over year ago the temperance peo
pie OF New York proposed to send missiona.
ries to the benighted South to show those
people how to get rid Of the rum shops.
Having been born and reared in the centre
of abolitionism, he grew up with what he
considered an eternal prejudice aud hatred OF
the South, and particularly OF soulhern slave
owners and Democrats These impressions
would have lasted him through life but for
his recent tour through that once hated sec
tion. His first point OF attack was Louis.
vile, Ky. He was there met with open
arms. and conducted to one of the largest
halls in the city, filed to oveIflowing with
the most prominent citizens, and was intro.
duced by member of the legislature. Al
the meeting he learned that the legislature
has taken the first step in the cause Of prohi.
bition, and one of it's enactments was thai
no liquor saloon could be tolerated within
four miles of any schoolhouse. II was
ashamed, after that" ," said Gov. st. John.
10 tell tuem the utmost limit ODtAlneQ IN
any northern state was 400 yards" In Bull.
ard and other counties, where he expected to
find whiskey saloons at every cross road and
street corner, he was astonished to learn that
the law of total prohibition was in full force.
II couldn't teach those people much, and
so passed on TO Tennessee. i found pretty
much the same state of affairs there. l was
introduced to one of the largest and most in
teligent audiences that ever addressed by
an eX governor of the state, who was chair
man Of the meeting. My preiudices were
beginning to give place to admiration, and
my lifelong hatred to love for such people
AT Corinth, Miss, found that there was moi
liquor saloon in the place. addressed al
enthusiastic meeting OF the most intelligent
citizens, both white and black, and all ovei
the state found the majority of the people
in favor Of prohibition, and, according tc
population, about one saloon to ten at the
north. In Alabama the outlook was most
promising, But the state of Georgia he
found to be in the lead of every other state
in the Union. Out of 1874 counties 1lG had
enacted probibitory laws. Wherever went
| WAS met with the utmost oOrdiality, and
can safely say that / never met more gen
erous hearted or hospitable people, and now
instead Of our teaching the South how to gel
rid of the rum shop, the South has become
our teacher"
