THIS is the season for Chautauqua
schools. Every section has them, and
the development of the philosophic and
scientific mind is happily combined
with pleasant communings with nature.
AT one of those in Massachusetts the
past week the announcement was made
that "Science demonstrates that man
has two brains, each performing sep
arate function" Probably that is the
reason there are so many cranks and
crooked people. The two don't always
work together right.

The COMMITTEES OF the Samoan confer
ence has prepared draft Of proposal
TO constitute court to decide questions
OF land tenure in Samoa. The court is
to consist OF one representative ~ each OF
the Interested powers and two Samoanese.
The complications connected with the
different tenures threaten 10 impede pro-
aress until the committee relegates the
settlement OF the question to the proposed
court. Sewall and Brandeis have been
present daily at the sittings. Sewall
proved the untenable character OF num-
Der OF German land claims, and, further,
showed that the extent OF land claims by
foreigners, as bought or ceded, was in ex-
cess of the area Of the islands. Brandeis
gave evidence on the validity OF German
land titles, and said that he desired to be
heard on the losses of German planters.
The committee declined to consider such
losses as involving the question OF in
demnity. The English and American
delegates express satisfaction at the pro-
gress already made, and all sides are
hopeful that the convention win be con-
cluded in June. The attitude OF the
English delegates will assist in the solu-
ton Of the question. Before the confer
ence it, was suspected that the entente
between Berlin and London would tend
TO throw the balances against the Amer
ican policy, bat later developments war
rant the belief that the English delegates
have been instructed to join with the
American representatives, in opposing
German pretensions to special rights,

Der OF teams were engaged In loading

that the senator had suspended opera

hare been engaged 10 work for II during
the last two days contradicss the runsor.
They will commence 10 ship ore soon

l.. z. Hewens, who returned a few days
ago from a trip through the mining re.
gions Of the Bradshaw mountains, Yaya-
pal county, reports much activity in that
district. Specimens Of decomposed quartz
from the Robbins strike, new and rich
find three miles southwest Of the Castle
creek smel,er, carry gold running as high
as 800 per ton. The ledge il three feet
In width aud crops out on sbe surface
over 100 feet. The prospect has been
bonded for $40 600 by Messrs. Kincaid &
Lechner, and extensive development will
begin Immediately. The Boaz mining
company also have their twenty-stamp
mill running night and day at the South
ern Belle mihe, on which property the
prospects are exceedingly good. Although
the ore does not run over $40 per ton, it
is worked at cost not exceeding $3.50,
and as the quantity is unlimited 1t is
proving a very valuable mine. 1t now
has a tunnel l3O feet in length, and
drifts have been cut each way over 2J0
feet, all showing sulphuret ore in six
foot ledge. The mill is crushing fifty tons
per day. Many Of the prospects in the
country which. have lain idle for years
are now being worked, and much good
results are expected.--Herald.

STATE FINANCES.

Since it is evident that the shortage will be
greater this year than last, Gov. Merriam can
well afford TO donate his salary to the state.
As an instance of how the state does bust
ness, there is one 10X1S cloak room in the
state capitol which is Illuminated by six cleo
trio arcs and SIX gas jets.
The elevation of Sam Nichols to the oil in
spectorship has had depressing effect upon
the movement to reform that Office. Like
Mr.. Willis, Mr.. Nichols best admires the word
reform when applied to his successor.
The suggestion that the state treasury be
abandoned TO the state institutions is good
one. For types of ''robber barons' Mime
sofas so-called penal and benevolent estab
lishments take the bun, biscuit and sand
witch.
Since it is the province of the state to pay
S. per Gay for the raising and lowering Of
the capitol flag, and which is at the rate of
ST., S25 per year, why is not the proposition
to increase the per diem of legislators to $40
a proper one?
State officials are public officials, and their
Offices are open to public inspection. They
are there also to give information as to state
affairs. State Treasurer Bobleter's reticence
on finances, and half-refusal to discuss them
exposes him to severe criticism.
The waves of financial extravaganza are
already dashing high in the legislature. They
beat upon the promontory of the state treas
ury with resistless force. In their thunder
the rain of remonstrance from the people is
lost Even the sight (by the dense spray) is
blinded to the lovely figure of Jared Benson
standing on the coast of Economy with up
raised hand, yainly threatening the adYanc-
ing food

CANADA's VALUE.

People who talk about annexing
Canada do not generally realize that
the acquisition of the British posses
sions would more than double the area
of the United States, leaving out
Alaska. 1t would cut off about 40 per
cent from the empire upon which the
sun never sets, as claimed. 1t is by no
means yalueless region Of icebergs
and frozen things. The great bulk of
the vast region is as habitable as the
northern part of the United States, and
there is an immense tract that will grow
as fine wheat even as Dakota. 1t has
immense rivers aud navigable waters,
and the dividing lakes have large
commerce. No money could buy any
of the territory this country has ever
acquired by purchase or otherwise, and
reference to the map readily shows
how much more shapely the dominions
of Uncle Sam will be when they stretch
to the north as far as there is anything
to be had.

Treasurer Bobleter Declares
the State Revenue Fund
to Be Unhealthy.
A Deficiency Of Three Hun
dred Thousand Dollars
This Year.
Over Three Millions to Be
Asked From the State
Treasury,
Of Which State Institutions
Want Over Two Mill
ions.

Gov. Merriam's veto will be the sword
of Damocies to Spendthrift legislators.
His excellency is determined that the
state finances must be more economic
ally administered; that eXtrayagant ap-
preparations must not be allowed; and
legislators have been given to under
stand that his veto power will be un-
sparingly used in the interest of econ
omy. Such a policy, if wisely carried
out, will commend itself to the citizens
of the state, Republican and Democrat
alike.
The deplorable condition of state
finances is apparent. State Treasurer
Bobleter says: sat no time within the
five years ending July 81, 1888, has the
revenue fund been in healthy c0ndi-
ton, and for only Twenty-Five days of
the entire time has there been credit
to thus fund, and then for not to exceed
ten days in any ole fiscal year" In
other words, during fifty-nine of the
sixty months the affairs Of the state
were conducted upon q credit system!
Working the state revenue fund upon
the credit system is a most expensive
luXury-if such it may be termed. Gan
agreement was entered into with several
banks to pay warrants issued against the
revenue fund, and to receive interest
on such warrants until the treasury
could redeem the same at rate of 6 per
cent per annum." The revenue fund
is derived from taxes levied Tor general
expenses, from railroad, insurance, tele-
graph and telephone companies. At
present the levy stands at LIS mills. and
upon the receipts and expenses for the
fiscal year ending July 81, 1889. State
Auditor Braden estimates deficiency
in the revenue fund of $500. 55S.94.
Pleasant reading this for taxpayers.
This regrettable condition of state
finances is in no respect due to officials
who administered the funds; it is solely
due to the reeklessness of previous leg
islatures in appropriating money far
in excess of the income of the state.
But for Gov. Merriam's timely inter-
yentiOn there is every indication that
this state of things would be perpetu-
ated by the present legislature.
The appropriations which will be
asked from the legisiatu now in ses-
SIGN reach the modest total of over
S3.OO0,OOO! For corrective and charita-
BILE institutions, in buildings and repairs
alone, an aggregate amount of S1,006,-
925 is asked. But when the current
expenses are taken in, the amount is

WANTS MORE SENATORS.

A writer in the current number of the
North American Review argues elab-
orately in favor of the division of New
York state into two states. He looks at
the matter from Republican stand
point, and finds that the growth of pop
ulation is almost entirely in the five
counties that cluster about New York
city, and that it is swelling the Demo
cratic vote SO that it will be impossible
for the country to oYerbalance it by the
next presidential election. The aeei-
dent of the tariff. he says. was all that
saved his party this time. The division
on the line of these southern counties
will make the two states equal in popu-
lation, each having nineteen electoral
votes, and emphatic in opposing poll
itics. With this division he finds that
the doubtful and deciding states will be
Michigan and California. Without the
division he is unable to figure out any

A Dull Day.

Yesterday was a dull day at political
headquarters-the Merchants. Senators
and representatives alike. worn with
the exacting and exciting labOrs of the
past week, had sought relief in quiet
Sunday at home. There were few ex-
ceptions. Lieut.. Gov. Rice remained in
the city. because of "a pressing business
engagement" Senator Edwards was
on hand. but spent the greater part of
the day in his room. There was also
Senator Durant, who, with his wife,
has taken up permanent quarters dur
ing the session at the Merchants.
~
Senator Durant says the report of the
bribery investigation committee was
not exactly "a box of geraniumS."
Thereby hangs tale!

During the morning Lieut.. Gov. Rice.
Senators Durant and Edwards found
Merchants. Deeply interesting matter
was discussed. but it neither partook of
a legislative nor critical tone. A veil
is alphabetically drawn over the rest.
