select those men who will be credit tc

he does the results of his strivings are
very poor.

Residents at Mt. Pleasant Alarmed.

Mt. PLEASANT, Pa, April 1.-Residents
of this place are alarmed, and feel that
their property is at the mercy of an angry
foreign element. There is no installing
the situation. If an attempt is made to
resume work there will be serious trouble.
That a crisis is approaching seems to
have impressed every citizen, and there is
scarcely a home in Mount Pleasant from
the windows of which the light was not
streaming all night.

IT is not at all surprising that the
members of the late congress, who APP
propriated all money in the treas ury
and a good deal that hasn't got there yet,
should also have grabbed lot of public
documents that didn't belong to them.
1t is customary for congress to provide
for the assignment of the public docu-
ments published after the expiration of
the congress to the incoming representa-
tive. Naturally enough the fffty-frst
congress did not do this, and it is said at
the capitol that the people in charge of
the document room are sending to eX-
members the supplies that ought to be
held for their successors. They have no
more right to them than any body who
was never in congress, and those men,
bers who hope to be able, when they get
there, to remember their constituents
with reports about agriculture and the
other resources of the country may, FIND
that the books which they ought to be
able to command have been appropriate
ed by some of the men who are now
among the dead ducks"

THE greatest living French political
economist, Leon Say, has been studying
the economic situation here. He
writes: The truth of the situation is
this-that the Americans have ruined
their credit by its abuse, through "a de-
fective administration of their transpor-
tation enterprises, and through an ad-
ministration yet more faulty of their
local finances. Unless a reaction should
supervene in the public morals, Ameri-
can credit will not be able to recover
from its fall, and the agricultural in
dustry of America, as well as its other
industries, will continue to be prey to
successive commissions, for which
transient remedies will be sought in
abandoning themselves to expedients
the miscarriage of which is certain, and
which will, moreover, conduct the
country to graver crisis. 1t is astonIsh-
ing that, in a country of business men,
people should have reached the point of
believing that there is no limit to the
circulation of coined money. If Ameri-
ca causes all the silver emanating from
her mines to be coined, and augments
the quality of paper money according
to ideas laid down by the Farmers
alliance, there could not possibly be any
agreement with Europe on the none
tary question. 1t would be pure mad
ness on the part of Europe to send its
capital to America.

THE Indian question will not down.
1t is stated that the Sioux are again suf-
fering from short rations, and fears of
another outbreak are spreading. Why
the Indian bureau of this government
cannot be run on common sense business
principles is one of the cOnundrums of
the time. Why make promises to the
delegations of Indians that from time
to time go to Washington, unless it is
intended to keep them? The Indians
should be properly taken care of or they
should be left entirely alone. Enough
money is appropriated every year to
provide well for those Indians not in a
position to care for themselves, but so
many fancy salaries are paid from that
fund and so much of it is stolen by dis
honest officials and contractors that the
red man is anything else but we'll taken
care of. Until there is radical change
in our treatment of the Indians, occa-
sional outbreaks accompanied by blood
shed may be expected, and as long as
the republican party is in control of the
national government there will be no
change.

MERGED, CAL, April 6-The Olsen muir
der trial was resumed today. Charles
Wench testified that he had lived on the
Ivett ranch since 1856, and was at the
ranch the Saturday and Sunday previous
to the murder, and saw Ivett and Olsen.
On cross-examination the defense brought
ont the name of Wesley Logan, now de-
ceased, and asked him did Iyett and
Logan ever quarrel. Wench replied !:
'.Yes, they had little difficulty, but not
much. think Logan burned the barn
once to get even." Witness was then
closely questioned in regard to Logan, and
it is thought the defense will try and lay
the murder to Logan, but Wench testified
that they. made up after the difficulty,
which was nothing more than difference
in accounts.
Bert Stumbling, who testified at the
preliminary examination that Olsen wore
different clothes on the day after the muir
der than he did ON the day of the murder,
today testified that he did not remember
what clothes Olsen wore Charles War
rem described Olsen's clothes. His descrip-
ton of the shoes answers that of the
bloody shoes now in the possession of the
sheriff and which were found in Olsen's
ROOM

Certainly. DR.. Plouf is making friends
wherever his medicine goes. Mrs. Cook,
accompanied by her son William, visited

whether the doctor really could cure

No question exists as to what DIR. Ploufs

tried, from Maine to Oregon and from Cam

every patient. This medicine stands peer
less and alone as the only remedy in the
world that win absolutely cure rheuma-
