Gil began at 9. 80 this morning and was
taken up principally with the reports
of the standing committees. The
finance committee reported an in
crease of over n thousand dollars in
the widows and orphans and disa-
bled clergy fund, and all other funds
in very satisfactory condition.
The committee on parochial reports
reported an increase in every branch
of church work. There has been
added S11,304 increase to the value
of church property; the parochial
contributions are S2,SS1 80 more than
last year; diocesan contributions are
81, 534 60 greater than last year; 800. IS
more for general missionary purposes;
the total contributions for the year
are S51, 961,0S.
The report of the committee on the
state of the church showed that dur
ing the year past, although there
have been several vacancies in the
field, advances have been made both
in the established parishes and in es-
tablishing missions.
The committee on the permanent
and episcopal fund reported that all
obligations had been met, and that
there is an increasing balance on hand
annually.
The committee on proposed changes
in the prayer book made its report,
agreeing to most of the changes, but
consideration of the report was post
poned on account of lack of time
The old standing committee of the
diocese was re-nominated, when the

TO CORRUPT MONTANA.
The Latest Plot Hatched by Harrison and
His Nilo Managers

His Vito Managers
So the Dudley and Quay methods
are to be adopted in the fall to de-
bauch Montana and win it away from
the Democratic party. The political
signs in the new State have consider
ably alarmed the President and he has
intimated to Matt Quay that Montana
must be looked after; in other words,
the blocks Of Eve and other methods
must be put in force to prevent three
more Democrats from being sent to
Congress. 1t is said that the Presi-
dent and his manager have outlined a
plan of action calculated to save the
new State to the Republicans. 1t Is
not known how much of the fiat Of
last years campaign remains in the
hands OF the Republican National
Committee, but whatever it is, it will
be devo ted to the purchase OF votes in
Montana. Should the amount not be
sufficient, Sunday-School Wanamaker
may be called on again to help the
cause of corruption. 1t is hardly pos
sible that the rascality OF last fall can
be repeated this year in any part of
tho country with success, and that
Montana should signaliae its entry in
to the slsterhood of States by submit
ting to be branded in such foul man
ner. Harrison and Quay may plot as
they will and regard American voters
as purchasasle and in the market for
the highest bidder. They will find
themselves confronted by an indignant
public opinion, which will render their
iniquitous designs futile.
The people of Montana will not al
low themselves to DO defrauded of
their choice of Congressman, as the
Nation was of its choice of President
by purchased votes, for they have been
warned by the lesson of the last cleo
ton. II the notorious Dudley attempts
to employ his vile arts in the new
State he will meet with a far differ
ent rece ption from that his agents ex-
perienced in Indiana. They have a
very expeditions way of disposing of
obnoxious characters in the far West.
There is no Judge Woods in Montana
to screen Dudley, but coi tain Judge
Lynch, who IS very prompt and effect
ual in his methods. This execrable
plot against new State is beftting an
Administration that obtained control OF
the Government by bribery and cor
ruption, and is ready, at all times, to
prostitute the functions of the Govern
ment to gain votes. 1t is rather too
early, however, to try again the foul
methods that made Republican success
possible. The public mind is still
awake to the enormity of the crimes
committed against the most sacred
rights OF the American citizen. and
the new conspiracy of Harrison and
Quay against the ballot-box in Mon
tana will, likely, lead to serious
trouble for the administration. Al

The BERLIN CONFERENCE.
Sober Second Thoughts suggad by the
Howls OF the lingo Organs

| HowIs OF the lingo Organs
Mr.. Phelps, one Of the commission
ers who negotiated tho Samoan treaty,
by which, If We may trust the news
paper correspondents, Germany, En-
gland and America undertake to regu-
late affairs in Samoa, has returned to
America with q copy of the treaty in a
yellow bag.
The Senate of tho United States will
be asked to ratify this agreement, or
whatever it Is called, and, until it is
made public, all discussion of specific
prov isions is premature.
But II We are to believe the boasts
of the Republican organs, if we are
properly to interpret English praise of
American Jingoism, the Samoan treaty
is n wide departure for American dip
| lomacy.
From tho inception of the contro-
versy it has been evident that Ger
many was ready to respect American
rights in Samoa when our case was
properly presented. Secretary Bayard
plainly stated the claims and COM
plants OF America and American citi-
zens. II Mr.. Blaine's commissioners
have simply adhered to Mr.. Bayard's
case all will be we'll.
But, from the utterances in the
lingo press, it seems they have gone
beyond this. and have formed an alli-
ance with England and Germany for
tho government Of Samoa, just as
Spain, France and Germany once
formed an alliance. treaty or agree
ment for the proper government of
Mexico.
What is Samoa to us or we to Samoa,
that we should depart from the prin-
ciples laid down by Washington In his.
farewell address, and adhered to with
adm rable consistency from that time
until now? Is Blaine a greater states
man. a more thorough American, a
more skillful diplomatist than Wash
iugton?
Observe good faith and justice
toward nations. Cultivate peace and
harmony with ALL" said Washing
ton; and he added: Europe must be

causes of which are essentially for
eign to our concerns. Hence, there
fore, it must be unwise in us to i'm
plicate ourselves by artificial ties in
the ordinary vicissitudes of her poll
tics, or the ordinary combinations
ard collisions of her friendships or
enmities.
Our detached and distant situation
invites US TO pursue q different course.
If we remain one people, under an
efficient government, the period is not
far distant when we may defy mate
rial injury from external annoyance;
when we take such an attitude as will
cause the neutrality we may at any
time resolve upon to be scrupulously
respected; when belligerent nations,
under the impossibility of making
acquisitions upon us, will not lightly
hazard the giving us provocation;
when we may choose peace or war, as
our interest, guided by justice, shall
counsel"
These are words of wisdom, of
sound and prudent judgment, Of
firmneSs and patriotism, and by these
instructions must the Samoan treaty
be judged. Courier-Jour-

BIC- MOUNTED Mr.. TANNER.
Tho Corporal's EaGerness to Cast Re-
PrOach on the American People.

Tho Corporal's Eagerness to Cast Re-
Proach on the American People.
Corporal Tanner, in his eagerness
to cast a reproach upon the American
people for their lack Of gratitude to
the veterans of the war, assorted in
recent speech that Eat least ten thou
sand honoraby discharged soldiers
and sailors CT the Union army and
navy lay down their heads this night
on pallets of straw and eat the bread
of charity in the almshouses of the
United States" The answer to the
general charge is that the Government
OF the United States pays a pension &C
cOrding to tho degree of disability to
every honorably discharged soldier
who was wounded or contracted dis
case in the service and in the limo Of
duty. A pension is also paid to the
widows and minor children, and in GER
tain cases to the aged and infirm par
ents of deceased soldiers. The pen
sion expenditure for the next year will
exceed 500, 900, 000-a greater sum
than the annual cost of maintaining
the vast military establishment of the
German Empire on war footing.
As for the specific charge, it would
be interesting to learn in what aims
houses arc the 10000 honorably dis
charged soldiers of whom Corporal
Tanner speaks. The general Govern
mont and many of the States have es-
tablished homes in which the honor
ably discharged veterans are pro-
vided with every comfort, so that if
any of them can be found in aims
houses their residence there is from
choice rather than from necessity.
Investigation will doubtless show that
most of these alleged soldiers in aims
houses lack the essential requisite Of
an honorable discharge. Disagree
able as it is to recall the fact, there
was a disgraceful horde of deserters,
bounty jumpers and maligners during
the civil war, and it is quite probable
that many of these have finally lodged
in the almshouses of the country. How
great. is the number of such there is
no means OF ascertaining, but they
must not be COMPOUNDED with the vet
Grams of the war.
The policy of establishing soldiers
homes under National and State aus
pices should be literally extended so
as to provide a home for every hon.
orably discharged veteran who may
sock one. This would be far more lib
eral to the poor and infirm soldiers
than the passage of an INDECENT PEN
sion bill, as the small amount from
this source could not possibly main.
tain them in any degree of comfort.
But this policy does not suit the claim
agents and the dsmagogues. who are
eavoring TO make the most out of
this pension business without regard
TO the true interests of the soldiers or
of the country. -Philadelphia Record.

AN AMUSING PARADOX.
One That WIde-Awake Persons Car
Notice Almost Every Day.

NOtiCe |AiluosI Every nay
One of the amusing paradoxes of our
nature is that we occasionally present the
spectacle of being at the same time both
willing and yet unwilling to receive gift.
from another. Perhaps, while tho voice
declines to accept what is offered, the un-
ruly hand involuntarily and impulsiyely
reaches out to take, and actually receives
the gift from the donor. The manifest con-
tradiction between the two IN embers of the
personality is often regarded as more OF
less dishonest, and deservedly unsuccess-
full, attempt to appear not to desire the
gift, and yet at the same time to get pos
session of it. On the contrary, the fact is
generally an honest and unpreconcerted
selt-revelation. There has been no inten-
zion of deceiving, but strong desire, un-
successful ly repressed by equally strong
opposing will, have both acted together and
in contradiction at the same moment. 1t
may be proper to blame the unhappy
victim for wrong desire on the one hand,
or for wrong attempt to suppress the de-
sire on the other hand But it is not fair,
without further proof, to charge the per-
son with purpose to deceive by attempt
ing to appear TO be that which he is not
