A BOGUS .M'TAMANY FUND.

George Clarke Caught Using Brave
Mans Name in II Swind1ing Game.
A respectable looking young man, whom
one would take for an ecclesiastical
student, was arraigned before Recorder
McDonough in Hoboken, this morning
on the charge of swindling. He said his
name was George Clarke, but he refused
to give his address.
Policeman Stack testified that he heard
the prisoner appealing for pecuniary as
sistance yesterday afternoon on
what he wanted money for. The prisoner
showed HIM written appeal for assist
ance for the widow and orphans of
Patrick McTamany, a switchm6n who
was killed few months ago on the Penn.
sylvania railroad. The appeal purported
to be signed by George B. Main, K. H.
Ellsworth and Henry Seeyler, clerks in the
Pennsylvania Railroad depot, this city.
The names of these gentlemen had evil
IDENTIFY been forged
Below their signatures was that of
Clarke himself, who had put his name
down for $41 for the widow and orphans.
The several names that followed the
swindler's, and opposite which sums of
from 81 to $40 were placed, had all unmis-
takably been written by Clarke himself.
He pleaded guilty to swindling, and was
sent to Snake Hill for three months.
Paid His Fine with Century - Bill.

The Speakerahip.

The San newspaper of this city, deign-
ing, with possible irony, to admit that
there may be western candidates for the
Speakership of the next House of Repre-
sentatives the equal of Mr.. Reed in
"brains, energy and personal beauty"
adds: "But Tom Reed, OF Maine, is likely
to get the Chair, all the same" for the
reason that Tin the first place, he starts
with more votes. In the second place,
he has been the caucus nominee for
Speaker in minority years, and custom
and decency entitle him to the nomi-
nation now that it means something"
Exactly go, the nomination by q
caucus of his party to the Speakership
this year would mean his election, and
that would carry meaning portentously
antagonistic to great western interests.
1t would mean an arrangement of the
Committees on Banks, Ways and
Means. Internal improvements, and
last but not least, of the Committee on
Coinage and on Mining, adverse to the
views, wishes and interests of the West
and South, including the Pacific Coast
States. With Mr.. Thomas B. Reed in
the Speakers chair, there would be no
hope of the enactment during the next
Congress, of any beneficial laws in re-
gard to our mining interests. No mem
Der of the House from the West or South
has q right to remain blind to
the long Congressional record
of Mr.. Reed, of Maine, upon pub
lie questions that in anywise have
affected the interests and industries of
the western people. We call as witness,
also, the jealous advocacy OF Mr.. Reeds
pretensions to the Speakership, by such
papers as the New York Times. and
nearly every other eastern journal that
is conspicuous for it's special opposition
to bi-metallism even tc the extent already
in operation in the United States, and
for an obdurate advocacy of false cur.
rency system based exclusively on gold.
One and all, these journals strenuously
favor the election of Mr.. Reed, and as
strenuously oppose that of Mr.. McKin-
ley Financial and Mining Record.
The esteemed Republican contem.
porsries OF the country will no doubt
make great efforts to convince the people
that Reed is not inimical to silver, and to
all the other interests of the West. But
the above, written before the event, is
the true estimate of this matter. Reeds
career and its record in public life all
proves this to be 30.

AN IMPORTANT LETTER .

Ii Describes the BEGINNING Of work
en- she Utah Connection.
The following important letter was re-
ceived by well known citizen Of Los
Angeles from Q resident of San Fran
cisco who has been visiting in Nephi,
Utah. Nephi is prosperous little city
on the junction of the Utah Central and
the San Pete Valley roads. 1t is about
fifty miles south of Salt Lake City and
about $50 miles from Milford, where the
connection to Los Angeles begins. The
letter is addressed to prominent citizen
of Los Angeles, and reads as follows:
NEPHI, Utah: November 81, 1889.
DEAR SIR-Let Los Angeles rejoice
The citizens of Nephi have Just ad.
journed meeting in which they agreed
to give Is acres of land to the Utah, Ne
vada and California railway (backed by
the Denver and Rio Grande) for round
houses, etc. 1t is agreed by the railroad
company, in consideration of the land,
that the gradingwill begin at once, and be
continued until Los Angeles is reached.
The Union Pacific railway began grading
today at Milford and are heading for
Los Angeles, to shut the new road off.
Mr.. Roberts, the gentleman who has the
contract for the Union Pacific work, told
me he wns under bonds to complete $50
miles OF his contract in four months.
Mr.. Moore, of the Denver and Rio
Grande, told me last evening that his
teams and graders were all ready, and
that their road would parallel the Union
Pacific as far as Milford, $50 miles south
of here, and then would cut across South
ern Nevada, thence due southwest to Los
Angeles.
Mr.. Miller. First Vice-P President of the
Denver and Rio Grsnde, and signer, on
behalf of his company, of the agreements
entered into between Nephi and his rail-
road company, assured me his contract
ors we're under heavy bond to complete
their grade to Los Angeles before the
Union Pacific people got there.
Everything and everybody is all OK
element here at present, the town is full
OF laborers and teams, and the cry of
both roads is: ION to LAe Angeles ;"
hence say, let Los Angel rejoice, for
from present indications She will soon
have two more transcontinental roads.

Germany and the silver Question.
1t may be regarded as certain that the
German Government must abandon the
single gold monetary system. In fact.
that was virtually done years ago when
the sale of Germany's silver was stopped.
leaving fully 100000, 900 of the old
thaler full tender money in circulation
and some $70,0O0,O00 Of which in the
vaults of the Imperial Bank of Germany
now constitute material part
of the specie reserve of that bank
and the basis of about SO per
cent. of her note circulation. Under
an exaltation consequent upon so su.
preme q success as that gained in the
war with France, it was somewhat nat
ural for Bismarck to fancy that he could
successfully establish a new monetary
system for the German Empire which he
had consolidated. With so large a sum
of money in hand as that acquired from
France, it was not irrational for him to
listen to mono-metallic theorists and to
suppose, with them, that Germany was
sufficiently rich to establish an exclu-
sively gold monetary circulation, and be
forever rid of one chiefly of silver. AS
will be rememb ered, the production of
gold by the process of alchemy had
been the great study and aim
of Faust, as pictured by the great
German poet. 1t was for gold the pact
with Mephistopheles was contracted.
Made thus to figure in the grand drama
OF Goethe, the acquisition Of so large an
amount of gold in successful war with
France, naturally made the professors of
political economy in Germany ready to
fancy that the time had come for max
ing sole gold standard in the German
Empire as we'll as in England, and pre-
pared the military and diplomatic men
of Germany to accept their visionary
teachings. A thousand millions of
dollars gained from France was enough
to mislead even so calm brain as that
of Bismarck, for the time. The greatest
of statesmen have fallen into such errors.
while statesmanship consists in the rare
power to comprehend, in time
the error that has been COM
mitted and to unhesitatingly and
wholly abandon the false road which
may have been entered. The Imperial
Chancellor, we are satisfied, has dis
covered long ago the full extent of the
financial blunder into which closet polit.
ical economists to whom he listened, led
the Government, and, therefore, he will
have the craftsmanship to throw them
and their quackery overheard and re-
trace his steps, satisfied that economic
results are not made obedient to the

sword and bayonet and are never brought
about by means of mere statecraft even
at the behest of Bismarck, nor are they
to be woven in closet out of the brains
of Professor Dumkoff, any more than
Faust was able to transmute lead into
gold by the process of alchemy.
French Napoleons, paid by France as
the price of removing the heel of Ger.
many from her soil, soon and steadily
flowed back into the vaults of the Bank
Of France, carrying with them, in time,
large sums of newly coined German gold
crowns and half-crowns. VIGOROUSLY,
the more gold there was coined under
the new system in Germsny, the more
there was that flowed away through in
Vulnerable channels into France. The
German Government sent to and sold
by weight in London, at heavy dis
count, the old and worn silver currency,
besides such of it as had been
previously melted into bullion. 1t
is now known that these coins
have largely found their way back to
Germany and have entered again, at
least the thalers, into circulation. In
other words, the gold currency with the
Germans had gained at such cost and
sought to acclimate, SO to speak, would
not stay with them; while the silver
that the Government had sought to be
rid of would not stay away, but, like the
ghost OF "blood- bolstered Banquo,"
would return to confound and trouble
those who murdered it.
Excepting the petty Scandinavian
States and Portugal hitherto only one
great commercial State, England since
1S20-has been able to adopt q single
gold standard, but it was in connection
with subsidiary silver currency with
which debtor could pay as much as $40
to any creditor at home, and coupled also
with silver monetary system upon a
vast scale for her Imperial Anglo-lndian
possessions. Financial and Mining
