IT will be interesting to know fthe
administration intends To make any re-
Plv TO the demonstrations of Gen. Bovn-
ton IN regard To the squandering of pub
lie money by the District commissioners
in the interest Of real estate speculation.
The General has made out strong case
and the President can scarcely help de-
nying the charge that he has connived
AT this scheme. 1t is case where de-
NAL is necessary even if there is moth
ing more substantial behind it than the
Presidential purity of which we have
heard so much. The President appoint
ed these commissioners for the District
of Columbia, and they have gone into
the scheme of improving Massachusetts
Avenue far beyond the demands or
wants of the people, at an enormous ex-
pense and through sparsely settled
and remarkably rough country. 1t is
plainly real estate syndicate job. 1t
is unnecessary 10 ask why the President
owns property in the center Cf the land
TO be so greatly benefited at the public
expense, or how he came to purchase.
He is there and the peoples money
is being taken TO make improvements
which will benefit the property holders
in that part Of the county, of whom the
President is one. Already an appropri-
alton has been made from the National
treasury for District purposes equal to
the assessments of the District If the
President is IN ignorance of all that is
going on under his nose he should be
prodded until he awakes to a realization
Of the scandal which his commissioners
are creating.

REPUBLICAN, CLUBS.

As a convention of all the Republican
clubs in the State is called to meet In
Minneapolis Feb. I'd the various Repub-
lican clubs of this county should be or
ganized as soon as possible. Each or
ganized club will be entitled to three
delegates at the State convention. Mr..
J. G. Fowler. who has been appointed
to take charge of the movement In this
county, is sending out circulars to prom
inent Republicans in each town of the
county, and those into whose hands they
fall should lose no time in organizing a
club in his particular town or locality.
The recent meeting of representative
Republicans OF the State at Minneapolis
unanimously resolved with great enthu-
siasm that the work of organization
should be pushed in every part of the
State, and that local clubs should be or
ganiZed at once. Mr.. Fowler will send
constitutions to the different clubs i'm the
county as fast as possible. He is now
securing the names of those interested
in the movement in this city. and a
meeting will be held at his old store,
corner Front and Jackson streets, Satur-
day night to perfect an organization. 1t
will no doubt be largely attended, and
an unusual amount of enthusiasm shown.

SENATOR CHANDLER's bill 10 regulate
National elections was introduced yes
terday. 1t has reference only to the
election Of members Of Congress and is
full OF interest. Its adoption would put
an end to the suppression OF the colored
vote in the South and therefore there is
no likelihood of It's becoming law in
these DAYS of Democratic ascepdency.
A considerations of its provisions is new
ertheless interesting.
1t grants to the Circuit and District
Courts power, by wrIts of mandamus and
prohibition, which may be directed when
necessary TO any officer of "A State to
compel an enforcement of the laws with
reference TO the election of Congressman
and 10 prevent the issuance of any GER
tiicate of election where the election
has been conducted illegally or the APP
parent result productivity fraud. When
ever the laws of the State require any
person TO appoint suitable persons 10
hold Congressional elections, and the
persons so appointed can not read nor
write, or have at any election, State or
National, been guilty of any illegal prac-
tees, ii is made the duty of the court,
on the sworn petition of any person set
ting out these facts, TO hear the case, and
if the allegations are found TO be true, TO
issue a prohibition to prevent the APP
pointment Of the unsuitable person or
persons.
Ii also directs that If after any election
for representative in Congress, a petit
tion shall he filed in the Circuit or Dis
trict Court alleging a violation Of the
State election laws, or that the result
was procured by fraud or intimidation,
il shall be the duty of the court TO Issue
a restraining order to prevent the State
authorities from issuing any certificate
of election, and the clerk of the House
from placing the rame of the person
claimed to be elected upon the rolls of
the House. The case then shall be
heard, and if the allegations against the
validity of the election are found to be
true. the restraining order shall con-
tinue in force until the case is decided
by the House of Representatives.

After the Trusts.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Mr. Bacon, of
New York, asked unanimous consent in
the House for the present consideration
of the resolution reported from the COM
mittee on manufactures, directing that
committee to inquire into the names,
number and extent Of the corporations
engaged in manufacturing or mining or
dealing in any of the necessities of life
and known as trusts and "pools,"
their methods of doing business, and
the effect of their combination upon the
prices of necessaries. After some dis
cussion Mr.. Mason of Illinois, author of
the resolution, stated that his object was
the ascertainment of the effect which
combination had on the price of neces-
saries, and further, to ascertain whether
or not by reason of the tariff, those COM
binations were able to raise the price of
necessaries. There were some indus
irious men in our country who would
like to have corner on the sunshine
and levy tax of 81 900 day upon II.
His object was to prevent the tariff laws,
which he believed in, being perverted
and turned against the people. Mr..
Nelson, of Minnesota, inquired whether
the gentleman had any doubt that the
tariff law indirectly co-operated to aid
the trusts. Mr.. Mason replied that he
had no doubt that there was class of
men who took advantage of the tariff
laws, and therefore those who believed
in high protective tariff thought that
there ought to he some way to prevent
those laws being perverted. If there
was no way TO protect the people against
these trusts, except by a revision of the
tariff, he was willing to vote OH that
question now. In order to extend the |
scope of inquiry, Mr.. Raynor of Mary
land moved to strike out the clause |
which confines the inquiry to trusts not
incorporated under the laws of any
state. Agreed to. On motion of Mr.. |
Randall, several amendments tending
to broaden the scope Of the inquiry
were agreed to. The resolution was
then adopted.

NINETY MET DEATH.
Terrible Particulars Of the Calam-
ity at the Wellington, B.
c., Galleries.
Two Hundred Miners Imprisoned by
an Explosion and Ninety of
Them Suffocated
Before the Rescuers Could Reach Them
-Heartrending Scenes at the
Mouth OF the Pit.

VICTORIA, b. c., Jan. 20. The first In.
telligence received here of the terrible
accident In the Nanimo coal mines was a
brief telegram yesterday morning to the
manager of the mines, who is living here,
to the effect that an explosion had &C.
Cured In pit No. 5, near Wellington, five
miles from the former explosion.
Several people have arrived from the
mine and give the particulars. The first
explosion sounded like distant thunder to
those near the pit. Instantly mass OF
dust and inky black smoke shot into the
air from the mouth of the pit, and peo-
pie In the vicinity knew instantly what
had happened, and rush was made for
the mouth of the pit, rs it was known a
large number Of men were working In
the mine. To their horror 1t was found
that the cage would not work, the explo
sion having injured the machinery
Ropes were procured and the work OF
raising the men singly began. The fore
nan of the mine, who came up by the
rope, stated there were 100 men in
It, and he feared, unless in
slant aid was rendered, many
of them would perish, as after
damp prevailed, and was suffocating
those in the mine.
Carpenters set to work, and III the
course Of an hour or so temporary cage
was lowered, and although 1t did not
reach the bottom, still, by means of lad
ders, etc, ninety-seven men were rescued
and sent to the top. IL was known that
about fifty still remained in the mine
and rescuing parties were organized 10
search for them Meantime the cage
was SO fixed as to reach the bottom,
and the work of rescue went on.
Twenty of them still in the mine
were found, several being dead and 9th
ers in such bad condition il is feared
they will not survive! About twenty
out of fifty have been rescued. Quite a
number of bodies have been recovered
and identified by relatives, but their
names could not be procured. Twenty
five Of the whites are married men
with families. Some Of the young
wives, with children, are frantic with
grief; standing or sitting, worn ont by
watching around the mouth of the fatal
shaft. Occasionally, when body is
brought up and recognized heartrend-
ing scene is enacted. Others, daZed with
watching and fountains Of tears, are 81
lently watching the cage ascend from the
depths below, where their dear ones are
entombed. A large gang Of men are now
down the shaft trying to rescue the min
ers or recover their bodies.
1t is now believed that nearly ninety
lives were lost in the explosion. The
bodies of twenty white miners have been
taken from the mine, and there are
about seventy more men still in the mine,
and there is no reason for believing that
any Of them are alive.

The article in the February Harper's
by Senator Edmunds states the position
of the Republican party upon the tariff
with admirable conciseness and ability.
1t should be read by everybody, as it
plainly shows the inconsistency of the
claims that tariff tor protection is not
for the benefit of the people of the en-
tire country alike. The fiowery Henri
Watterson will be at a loss to answer
Mr.. Edmunds' calm and straight out
propositions. The Senator also deals
a heavy blow to the surplus bugaboo Of
the President, although the article was
written before the country knew that
Mr.. Cleveland had any views on the sub
lnpt
