Turn On The Light.

Up to the time of the hearing before
Judges Fell and Gordon on the charges
against Auditor General McCamant,
the recent exposures Of corrupt practice
in office related only to officials in
Philadelphia. Late Treasur er Bards-
ley and the Mercantile Appraisers only
were proceeded against criminally. In
those exposures the people outside OF
Philadelphia therefore have not taken
the intense interest that must be ex.
cited by the charges now made affect
ing the Office Of the Auditor General
of the State At the recent hearing
before the two judges it was developed
that District Attorney Graham is in
possession of most damaging
proof OF official unfaithful-
ness. The evidence consists OF
book entries and checks made by
Bardsley, and letters written by Audi.
tor General McCamant and Mr.
Livsey to Bardsley. Bardsley in the
criminal proceeding refuses to answer
any questions relating to these checks
and entries declaring that his "self-
respect and regard for his family for.
bid his making any further disclosures.
Auditor General McCamant the only
witness to the facts can not be called
as witness against himself, and
hence, as legal prosecution, the pro-
ceeding falls for the time being. Now,
however, let the People Of Pennsylva-
mia have the facts. Let the suspect
ed State officials be arraigned before
the bar Of public opinion. What are
the accounts and entries in Bardsley's
hand writing which he refuses even to
look at in courtl Let the public see
the McCamant and Livsey letters
all of them.
While the law permits the Auditor
General to be silent in legal proceed
ing, the people whose servant he is,
have right to demand that he shall
speak. Did Mr. McCamant receive
$7I54,4z from Bardsley, as shown in
his accounts If so where did the
money come from, and what was it
paid for3 What say you, Mr.. Auditor
General? What were the 'favors
you received from Mr.. Bardsley for
which you thank him in your letters,
corresponding in date with the mys-
ferrous Bardsley check stubs? Did
District Attorney Graham present to
Judges Fell and Gordon all of the Nc
Camant letters he had before him?
The people of the state are entitled
to know all that can be known on the
question Of the integrity of the state
officials. If it be true that the corrup-
ton that has overwhelmed the public
service in Philadelphia extends to
State officials, the people have right
to know that fact, and to know it now.
Let there be neither concealment or
delay in this matter. Speak out, gen.
tlemen.

9' There's danger
in . cough more than ever when
your blood is "bad." 1t makes
things easy for Consumption. But
there's cure for it in DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. A posi-
tive cur0-not only for Weak
Lungs, Splitting of Blood, Bron-
chitis, Asthma and all lingering
Coughs, but for Consumption itself
in all its earlier stages. It's rea-
sonable. All these diseases depend
on tainted blood. Consumption is
simply Lung scrofula. And for
every form Of scrofula and blood
taint, the "Discovery" is q certain
remedy. It's 80 certain, that its
makers guarantee it to benefit or
cure, in every case, or the money is
refunded. With medicine that u
certain, this can be done.
There's . cure for Cstarrh, too,
no matter what you've been led to
believe. If there isn't, in your case,
you'll get $500 cash. It's bona
hde offer that's made by the pro-
prietors of DR.. Ssge's Catarrh
Remedy. There's risk in it, to be
sure, but they are willing to take
the risk-you ought to be glad
10 take the medicine.

A Prize Fight in San Francisco.

An overland special from San Francis
co, says: George Dixon, of Boston, and
Abe Willis, Of Australia, fought at the
gymnasium of tho California Athletic
Club for S., 900 and the bantam weight
championship of the world. Willis was
practically unknown to many here, and
the betting before the fight was in Dix
on's favor running from 100 to 20 to 100
to 90. Dixon won on the fifth round.
The battle occupied less than twenty
minutes. Willis was knocked out in the
fifth round after having had the worst Of
a hard fight from the start Dixon's style
of fighting was not known very well
here aud he was not expected to do much
rushing, but no forced the fight from the
first round Hcrushcd Willis hard when.
agsinst the coIofed mans assatlI's, and
half a dozen sharp rallies he fought back
manfully, but was not able to hit as hard
or as frequently as his opponent. His
qulckncss and his ability to stand hard
punishment saved him from defeat earlier,
but after being knocked down in the
first round and unmcrcifuIly pounded in
the four following rounds he was greatly
weakened, and the blow which finally
sept him out was n light one compared
to n dozen others which he had received.
Dixon was apparently uninjurcd, and
as soon as he saw that Willis could not
rise in the fifth round the colorcd rian
gave II leap almost across the ring, while
the spectators chccrrd him wildly.
