For the girl stated, and her statements have
been proved true, that on entering the lady's

begun on the grOurd that so profane man

And there was Mr.. FeyerNeather, the

But it is useless to give other examples.
The foregoing are sufficient to show that
there are great many people who, if not
idiots, are at least not in their right mind.

young Bohemian woman of 20 years, began

and he a peayed before Judge Stone Saturday

Threatening the silver Senators.

Threatening the silver Senator'S.
1t is evident that the force bill senators
are going 20 make another effort to pass
that bill il sheY cal ges an oppOr-
tunity to do So They are now threatening
those republican senators who voted with
the democrats 70 displace the force bill and
/ take up the financial bill with the defeat Of
the latter bill in the House if they do not
/ agree to its speedy passage in the Senate
aud promise 70 assist in taking up and pass
I ing the force bill as soon as the financial
bill is out of the way.
The argu nent used is that Speaker Reed
controls legislation in the House. It is in
his power. to a great extent, 70 say what
bills shall be considered during the remain
der Of the session and what shall not. II
the republican senator's who are anxious for
free silver coinaye 10 not assist the force bill
senators in pnshiag the financial bill to a
vote. aud refuse TO help get the force ball
before the Seaate again. Speaker Reed will
kill the fsaReial bill with its free silver
coinage annex il it ever reaches tae H juse.
The republ IN senator's who helped to dis
place the forcs bill do. not seem 10 BE-
a armed by this threat 1t is probable that
some OF them do not care much whether
tie coinage of silver IS made free or not,
Notwithstanding their efforts in lis behalf
II they can get the Senate 70 vo.e in favor
of free silver coinage they will be in posi-
ton TO say that they did all they could to
make the e5inage OF silver free. Their
constituents via NOT DO able to blame them
for the fail1re Of the movement in favor Of
free silver coinage.
But this talk about getting the force bill
before the Sena.e again is all nonsense.
When Senator Hoar said that the vote dis
placing hat Till meant the death of the Re-
publican party, he understood very well
that it was not at all probable that the bill
would ever come before the Senate again.
He was well aware that there were enough
republicans opposed TO the bill to prevent
its further consideration.
And the country would not lose anything
if the Republican party should pass out of
existence. Its usefulness is ended, and SEN
ator Hoar admitted as much by his remark
that the vote displaciDg the forcs bill meant
its death. Two months ago the country
repudiated its tariff policy so emphatically
tnat it will never again have the courage to
propose a revision of the tariff, and now
that the scheme to change the character of
the government by putting bayonets behind
ballots has been laid on the shelf, what ex-
cuse has it for asking the support of the
people?
1t is not TO be wondered at that there
was a great deal of bitter talk at the caucus
Of republican senators last Monday night,
and that some harsh things were said of the
eight repu olican senators who joined the
democrats in favor of considering the
financial bill, but family quarrel of that
sort only emphasizes the rapidly growing
i'm preston that whatever mission the Re-
publican pa rty had has been fulfilled

When Gov. Hill was intervied at length
in Albany few days ago by MIR. w. c. Nc
Bride, the Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer, he very freely denied
that he is afraid of Grover Cleveland or
avoiding him. Among other things Gov.
Hill expressed the opinion that President
Harrison will be renominated. He does not
believe that Mr.. Blaine has any hope of
again making his record on his personality
an issue before the American people :"
though, in the governors private Judgment
the Maine statesman sis the greatest per-
sonality within the Republican party. .
Gov. Hill pronounced as ridiculous the state
ment that he declin to attend the tariff re-
form dinner in New York because of the ex-
pected presence of Mr.. Cleveland, and that
for the same reason he would not attend the
dinner of the Tariff Reform Club in Phila-
delphia. II am busy here" added
the governor; "the legislature is about to
meet; United States senator is about to
be elected, and yet, with my inability to re,
spond to invitations which come in upon
me, am charged with a delinquency in
acceptance because Grover Cleveland lap
pens to he likewise a guest. Perish the
thought" Nevertheless the governors
arduous duties are so operating as to keep
him away from festivities that Cleveland
attends and liberate him for other occasions
right along. Nicely adjusted duties.

Banker Clews Expresses an Opinion.
In his financial circular, issued Jan. 5,
Banker Henry Clews, of New York, says:
with the rapid increase of population in
this country there are unmistakable signs,
also, that large number If this great mass
of people are idiots" Mr.. Clews says the
evidence of idiocy is the boarding of money
during the last few months. Mr.. Clews
then proceeds to prove to his own satisfac-
ton that there is no good reason for hoard
ing money, and has been none recently.
But it DOESN'T follow that people are
idiots because they hoard money. There is
a pretty well founded belief that some of
those who have boarded the largest amounts
since there began to be stringent money
market are bankers and capitalists They
are among the shrewdest and clearest-
headed men in the country.
But that there are great many people
in the country WHO donot appear to be in
their right mind, although they are per-
mitted to attend to business affairs and are
reasonably succe sful in all their undertake
ings, there is no doubt. The newspapers
furnish distances daily in which men do
things which cannot be satisfactorily ex-
planned.
An illustration of what is meant was
contained in a statement which appeared in
our dispatches day or two ago TO the effect
that Baltimore bank was in trouble be-
cause the cashier. a man named Gardner,
had permitted H. Webster Crowl, an ex-
councilman of that city, to overdraw his
account 500, 200. There is no evidence and
nobody believes that Cashier Gardner
profited by his unbusinesslike conduct, and
the president of the bank said he could
account for the cashiers action only
on the ground that Crowl had
hypnotized him. If shrewd fellows can get
all the money they want out of banks by
hypnotizing t cashiers there is no need
for bunk robbers to use violence. All that
it is necessary for them to do is to hypnotize
the cashiers and tell them to hand over the
cash in their possession.
