The Financial Question.

The financial question engaged the atten-
tion of the president and cabinet at the
meeting YESTERDAY Something has to be
done in regard to the s52 00O. COO Of AZ per
cent bonds. which mature September 6.
After examining the situation and condi-
ton OF the treasury il was decided unani-
mously that the ninety days callrequired by
law for the redemption of these bonds be
issued next Monday. This, however, does
not mean that they will be called in.
Several treasury officials, Secretary Eos
ter included. it is understood, believe the
bonds could be extended at l per cent and
the reclamation money held in the treasury
against any contingency that might arise.
This scheme is based on the principle that
where money could be used adVautageously
| per cent would be a trifling interest
Mr.. Lacey. comptroller OF currency, says
certain national banks which now mold be-
tween S23. G00.000 and 1000, 900 Of these
bonds, viii be willing to keep them at | per
cent. The legal question now arises does
the issuing of the call for bonds destroy the
government option upon them! This
question will have 10 be settled before
final decision is reached in the matter of
extending the bonds President Harrison
expressed desire that bonds be redeemed.
He is anxious TO continue the policy which
has resulted in the cancelling OF S26 900. 900
of bonds. Foster urged his plan, and while
there was difference of opinion between
him and the president, the latter will likely
weld to his secretaryS judgment. The de-
ciSiOn as to the bond extension will not be
reached for some time.

NoTARIEs PUBLIC.
The secretary of state is not satisfied
with the opinion given 4 day or Two ago by
tie attorney general advising him that he
may refer 10 the senate journal for proof
that certain names not appearing,
or appearing wrongly, in the certified
list ui nOtarieS public made out by the sec
rotary Of the senate, were sent i'll by the
governor and confirmed by the senate. The
secretary of state says that the certified
list furnished him is the only authentic ev--
dence in his possession OF the names con-
iiTIned and that the senate journal containing
no official certificate Of nybody can't be
held TO be authentic evidence, besides the
appendix thereto containing the names OF
the notaries confirmed is not in his posses
sion. That is probably because it is still in
the hands of the printer. 1t is asked
if there IS not some uniform
rule TO determine whom the governor
has appointed and the senate confirmed.
Ire uncertainty OF knowing when 10 be
governed by the senate journal and when

Speaking of Baird's treatment of Editor Lucas,

''Every one in Wooley and Sedro is indignant at
the way Baird has been acting there and he has
no friends left at all. Last Monday Miss Sarah
Haverly, OF Anacortes, returning to her
home on the train after picnic Baird came
along and rudely demanded TO know the con.
tents OF Il basket she had. The young lady had
the remnants of n lunch that she and her friends
had taken. but Baird tore of the cover ofiicious-
ly and held up each article in the basket to the
gaze of the other passengers in the car, to the
great modification of the young lady, Last
week he went through a small satchel carried
by a woman with two little infants One of the
babies cried but he paid no attention to that.
and persisted in going TO the bottom of the
satchel and bringing out all the baby clothes
and bottles"
