He was knocked down with club, and
his assailant went through his pockets
while he lay unconscious on the pavement.
The man, who he thinks was Hugh Doyle,
did not secure anything for his trouble.

A Greek Shows Up the Panama Canal
Scheme in an Unsavory Light.
G. M. Demetrius, Greek who has been
travelling through South America, was at
the Union station last night bound east.
He visited the scene of the Panama Canal,
and he says he is thoroughly convinced
that it is one of the biggest frauds ever per-
petrated on a people.
He claims he found there enough nails to
build road across the United States, and
stationery, pens, ink, etc., to supply city
like New York for six months He says
everything was conducted on the most ex-
travagant scale. The contractors bled the
stockholders, and they were favored by the
directors. He believes the canal will never
be built, and the people living in the coun-
try admit that the scheme is impracticable.

Mr.. James A. Mccormick, while pros

time ago, came across three oil paintings Of
the date of 1921, and, on getting them home
and having them cleaned, wassurprised and
of course gratifed to find them to be quite
valuable. They were found in Mexican
secondhand store, and seem by some means
to have been forgotten among some rubbish.
They represent the flight into Egypt, the
virgins and the angels salutation to Mary,
the mother of Christ.
Mr. Mccormick has placed them on exhi-
bition at GiIlespie's. They were found in
the ruins of wrecked and plundered abbey,
the vandals who destroyed it having no
taste for art, or being unable to take their
plunder with them.

The Enthusiasm of Prohibition Not Dumps
ened by the Vote.
The failure of the prohibition amendment
to receive the necessary two-thirds vote in
New Hampshire, Tuesday, did not dampen
the more-or-less ardent spirits of the Pro-
hibitionists IN this city. The liquor men,
though, were very jubilant Yesterday, and
any number of them could be found with

tocratic East End.
The aristocratic East Enders living on
Windmill street were scandalized one morn
ing when the East End Electric Company
strung their crooked unsightly poles along
their sidewalks on the west side of the street
preparatory to planting them.
The next morning the company was par
alyzed to see the poles had been removed to
the east side of the street and gentle, sub
dued but firm kick was made by the east
siders. The company was appealed to, and
decided to settle the difficulty by allowing
the poles to remain on the east side, but
they will be tall. stately, and shapely, and
more of an ornament than cause for COM
nlaint

margarine To-day.
DR.. Hugo Blanc, the chemist, went to
Harrisburg last night in the interest of
some measure, about which he declined to
speak. The doctor stated that he was in
structed not to say anything before he ar
rived at Harrisburg, and he was sorry he
could not give the reporter the information
wanted.
1t is believed that the chemist has been
hired by the oleomargarine people to de-
fend their bill. In all probability he has
examined chemically number of varieties
of bogus butter. and his report is expected
to have considerable influence on the
granger committee that threatens the meas
ure with quiet strangulation in the dark
ness of committee room.

IT Is remarkable, but true, that when a
man leaves or is kicked cut of a church, as
a rule he becomes utterly reckless as to
charges and allegations against the church.
Now, here is DR.. MCGLYNN, the Catholic
priest who was bounced year or two ago
because he preached heterodox doctrines in
regard to certain things and mixed up in
politics, declaring in a public speech that
'.the Catholic church is opposed to educa-
tion.'' Before MoGLYNS was booted out of
the place which he disgraced we will guar
antee that he often asserted and undertook
to prove by history and statistics, that the
Catholic church was the most progressive
and enterprising in the matter of education
of all the churches. 1t is true, also, that for
a good many centuries the Catholic church
was the chief if not only advocate and sup
porter of education; all the old universities
of Europe were founded by Catholics, and
in this country parochial schools and Catho-
lie educational institutions are found every
where. DR.. McGLYEN is developing into
frst-class blatherskite.

IT Is peculiar that the most determined
opponents to the admission of Idaho, New
Mexico and Wyoming to the union are
those who were loudest in their approval of
the act letting Nevada in, when that terri
terry didn't have as many settled inhabitants
as two waIds of Salt Lake City, and the
population all told was not much more than
half that of Wyoming. 1t was all right to
make state of Nevada when the people
were so insecurely anchored that the an
nouncement of the discovery of gold in
Montana or Mexico was likely to be fol
lowed the next morning by the moving of
all the population to one of those places;
but it is all wrong to make states of terri
tories where the inhabitants are steady
going, permanent residents, who are there
to live and die, whatever may be the news
regarding mines in other parts of the world.
There is vast amount of inconsistency in
the political world, and republican politi
clans and newspapers are its prophets.

saying: utah should be admitted. She is
willing and capable of assuming the respon-
bilities of statehood, and Justice to her
people demands that the control of their
own affairs should be given into their
hands!" Whyi not say that and say it out
loud-loud enough to be heard throughout
the whole land, instead of merely pre-
senting arguments to the same effect.
but Withholding the influence which a
recommendation, plain and direct, would
give to the "arguments!'' The fact is that
the cowardly action of the committee is of
a piece with the whole course pursued
towards Utah in this matter of statehood.
OF the rightfulness of Utah's claims to
statehood there can be no question. No
arguments" are necessary to sustain
those claims; a statement Of the situation,
a correct representation of the character of
her people, and the righteousness of her
cause, the justice of her case, and the
reasonableness of her demands are seen. at
once. s..---,. --.
But by willful and wicked misrepresen-
tation the people of Utah have been
made unpopular and arc misunder-
stood by the masses of the American
people; religious bigotry has raised hue
and cry against them; and SO deep is the
prejudice thus created that few men dare
avoW their friendship to Utah, or make any
effort to secure to her her rights, lest they
be misunderstood and accused of assisting
to perpetuate Mormonism. Popularity is
skittish jade, especially that species of it so
dearly loved by your politician. 1t is not
made of the material to stand buff to
cannon; on the contrary, it startles at
windmill, and sometimes at less substan-
tial thing than that-the idle fancies Of an
American politician. Utah will yet take
her place in the American union; the time
when, matters not so much; the nearness of
it is sufficiently hard by to bless many
who have worked for it with
security of those local rights for the safety
of which they have at times trembled, be-
cause of the un-American policy pursued
towards our unloved territory. When
that triumph comes, it will be seen that
the politicians who scarce dared speak
above whisper in presenting the justice of
her claims, together with many of her
avowed enemies, will bend to her for IA
vors. Meantime we would say to the COM
nittee on territories, Thanks, gentlemen;
0 thanks, awfully, for your arguments
But our advice TO you is that which VOL
sey gave to Cromwell, Hereafter, be just

over, and our some time General HARRI-
son, now president of the United States,
enters upon the serious business of his
high office The last Sunday he attended
church at his old home in Indianapolis, his
pastor said to him, in the course of his ser
mon:
When Moses, who, ''as an organizer and
statesman, stands without peer in all history,
received his commission from Jehovah as leader
of the chosen nation, he was overwhelmed by
the sense OF his own weakness and deficiencies.
Unto him Jehovah then gave this all-sutficient
assurance: Certainly 1 will be with thee"
The Eternal COD is the same yesterday, To-Day
and forever May you hear His voice speaking
unto you those very words He spake unto the
law-giver OF Israel, girding you for the coming
task guarding you from threatening perlls, and
enabling YOU to lead this great American nation
forward to higher conditions OF freedom and
Righteousness.

before appointing successor until he could

seems to be so offensive at home that the

Pauncefort is said to have long been sort
of nuisance in the government bureaus
and the intimation is given out that he was
sent to America because he was scrub,
the premier thinking that good way to
manifest his resentment. 1t may be that

which event all governments will gain. %
