WAS A DISGRACE.
Extent of the Corruption OF Nan
itOba Officials.

Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man., May 14.-An idea
of the awful corruption practiced by the
late government may be had by the fol-
lowing editorial comments of leading
paper here: "The facts reveal a far
more diSgraceful state OF affairs, more
shocking and revolving lack of public
morality on the part of the late govern
ment than their most res0lute opponents
ever deemed them capable Of Although
the audit has not yet been completed,
the number of irregularities and grossly
dishonest actions already uncovered can
be called nothing short of astounding.
The late government seems to have
lived and moved in a sm0thering atmos-
phere of immortality and corruption,
where honesty was known only as a
word. If they were actuated by com
mon aim it was plumber. The ministers
led the way, and the employees followed
their demOraliZing example. The result
is that the audit has laid bare cata-
logue of irregularities, jobberies and
gross instances of unbluShing robbery
that would put more than an ordinary
den of thieves to blush. The extrava-
gance of the late government knew no
bounds; public money has simply been
thrown away in thousands and tens of
thousands of unnecessary and unpro-
ductiye expenditure. But worse than
all are the facts revealed, showing how
the province has been betrayed and
cheated by ministers of the government,
and how the people have been unmerci-
fully robbed and plundered by the very
men whom they chose to guard their
interests. Disclosures made in this
connection are simply appalling. They
have shocked the whole community,
and are now the talk of the dominion.
The province stands before the world
to-day sadly diSgraced by her public
men i'll the late government. They over
drew their salaries, they used large
sums of money for their own purposes
in their private residences, they allowed
their officials to default for large sums
of money, cheques coming into the
hands of the government for specified
public purposes were privately used,
moneys belonging to the public were al
lowed by the government to go as per-
quisites to employees instead of being
kept for the rightful owners. We really
think, and we are persuaded that those
who read the budget speech will agree
with us when we say that the cool eff
frontery and impudent daring with
which the province was stripped of
thousands of dollars under the agricult-
ural reports transaction would do credit
to the most hardened criminals that
ever found their way Into the peniten-
tiarv.''

FRIENDS OF LABOR.

In the conclusion of his speech in the

in advocacy of the MILLS bill Mr..
SCOTT, of Pennsylvania, said: I'VE are
here, sir-we, the majority of the ways

in defense of American industry. We
alone offer it protection That's right.
The tariff reformers are the only true
friends of American industry. They
are the friends of labor because they
offer to liberate it from unnatural re-
straints. The so-called protectionists
offer monopoliZed market in which to
buy the neceSsarieS of life on one hand.
and on the other labor market subject
to the caprice of trusts. Mr.. SCoTT's
statement is a truth well told.

FOUGHT UNDER FIVE FLAGS
The Remarkable Career of Red"
Leary--His Many Good Quail

ties.
1.-The papers have told all about
Red Leary's criminal career" said a
friend of the dead burglar. Yesterday,
''but the other side of his life and char
acter has not been touched.
They call him soldier of fortune.
He was also a real soldier-one who had
in the service of his country, but in the
armies of three other lands. Then,
too, he was enlisted for a brief period
under the black flag of piracy.
That makes five flags for which he
fought. Rather unique record. isn't
it?''
''Leary was born in Albany in 1889,
one of FIVE boys, all of whom were noted
for their great physical strength and
courage.
"A few months after his parents
moved West young Leary left home to
see the world. He crossed the ocean as
a sailor, and at the beginning of the
Crimean war enlisted under Lord Rag
ian as drummer boy, serving all
through that war.
. "At the breaking out of the Rebellion
one of the earliest volunteers in the
First Kentucky regiment Col. Guthrie,
was Red Leary. From enlistment to
honorable discharge he was a good
soldier. He was great favorite in the
regiment.
g ''ne was with Garibaldi during his
entire fight for Italian freedom and
unity, and is said to have done notable
service.
9a in the Franco-Prussian war Leary
served in the French army and was
noted among all who knew him for his
courage, ability and generosity"
't Red Leary was in many ways a re-
markable man. He wore an eight and
quarter hat, and his friends say that
his head was packed full of brains. He
spoke fiuently French, German, Italian
and Spanish. On the history of Europe
during the present century few could
hold their own with him in argument.
1t is said that he would permit no in
decent or profane expression when
women were about. and no matter how
full he got he always insisted on that
point.
He was held as friend by many hon
orabIe and respectable business and
professional men in this city and else
