TIE three months subscribers to THE
NATIONAL TRIBUNE viii get the continu-
alton Of Lieut.. -. Dix Bolles'a wonderful
" Experiences and Adventures in Distant
Lands" the best series Of the kind ever pub
lished. They are strictly true. Their author
is an officer in the United States Navy, man
Of the highest character and courage, with a

IT must be admitted by all that Senator
VIM. Il. Allison, Of Iowa, knows much more
about the condition of the Treasury than all
the pension-hating editors in the country
His long experience as Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Appropriations implies
this without further argument. Therefore,
the following statement by him is sufficient
refutation of bosh about bankrupt Treas
ury":
There will still be n surplus on the first day Of
July next Of about sa0.0O0OOO, not including the
fractional silver, which. If added. will make s5O-
COO 600 available the first OF July This will be
sufficient with the then current revenues, TO pro-
vide for current expenses and redeem the $1,000
900 Of outstanding - per cent bonds rapidly as
they will come in for redemption. The current
revenues will be sufficient af,erward 10 meet cur
rent expenditures OF the next fiscal year

WHAT liars those soldier-haters be, They
are all the time protesting that they want
every deserving soldier to have pension"
yet they constantly single ont for attack as
deserving soldiers as marched under the
flag. They pretend 10 want just and
equitable pension law" but there has never
been a law proposed by anyone which did
not meet With, their bitter denunciation the
moment that it seemed to have the slightest
chance Of success When the Disability
Bill had the dependent clause in il,
they were terribly grieyed that a man
who bad done honorable service in the
Union army should be compelled TO prove
himself pauper before he could enjoy his
well-earned stipend" President Cleveland
was sure that the clause would convert the
whole body Of surviving soldiers into a mass
Of wilful pe5urers. When the dependent
clause was stricken out then they were out
ragged that milliOnaires-who they repre-,
scented as common among the old soldiers
would get AS much as the more-deseIving
poor man, who hadn't a cent, and needed q
pension 10 save himself from the poorhouse
The National tribune., 1891-05-21

WHATEVER the outcome of the Charles
toms chase after the Itata may be, we have
done our whole duty as an honorable neutral.
A small fraction of the energy we have
shown TO preserve our neutrality, would
have stopt the Alabama, and protected our
merchant marine from the ravages Of that
pirate. The difference is that England
wanted The Alabama 10 get to sea, and do
exactly as she did. The profits TO English
vessel owners were probable 100 times what
The had 10 pay for the Alabama awards"

BRITISH official reports say that FOR the
first quarter Of this year the exports OF
wooden yarns 70 this country were only TO-
700 pounds, against 1l3,5O0 pounds for the
same period Of last year. During the same
period the exports Of other woolens fell from
I al 400 yards to 1,1G0.lOO Of worsted
goods from 1884, 900 yards to 1926 300,
and Of carpets from as, GOO yards to o., zoo
The total value Of these classes Of goods ex-
ported TO this country during the first three
months Of 1890 was 81, 5is, 80; for the same
period this year but 3.G72 ,305, showing that
during that time alone s., s7j ,s75 which had
formerly gone abroad had been kept at home
and paid out to our own workingmen, me-
chanics and farmers. 1t would seem that
this statement alone is sufficient TO prove
the wisdom of Protection. A policy which
on only three classes Of articles brings nearly
81 100000 a month into the pockets Of our
own people must certainly be a wise one.

The Statesman says that Judge Nu-

and this IS how it wss: A man

He secured the services Of two bright
young attorneys, Catalan 4 Badger,
and they proceeded 70 knock the in
dictment into cooked hat. The
penal cods Of Idaho sets forth that
the theft OF : mare, horse, gelding,
COW, bull, calf, steer, hog, sheep, jsn-
ny, mule, jack Or goat il lasceny.
The attorneys held that no reference
was made to mare colts, hence, even
If their client had stolen the animal
named ia the Indictment, the law
could not reach him. Judge Nugent
did not agree with the attorneys on
this particular question; but he sus-
tanned other points set forth in the
demurrer, and ordered that Grothjan
be released on bail, pending the 40
ton Of the next grand jury.

Chief Engineer Mix, who arrived
in Psyette Friday evening, was met
by The Independent man, who, after
a bit of pleasant conversation, applied
the pump with a good deal of energy,
but only succeeded in eliciting the
information that Mr.. Mix had been
telegraphed by the management to
come at once, prepared to 60 out on
the line with surveying corps.
On Saturday morning Engineer
Mix and his men departed for the
proposed work. And when we take
into consideration the fact that this
isn't the time of year or kind of
whether that men choose for pleas
ure trip into the mountains, we readi-
ly conclude that some additional in
formation is desired for the prospect
US which will shortly be laid before a
syndicate of Eastern capitalists who
are interested in the proposed line.

sooner than some people think. Pay

DIssMARGED.

Tong Lung, a Chinaman arrested
for stabbing one OF his countrymen
in Pioneerville, on the lst of this
month, had his examination Wednes-
day before Judge Jas. J. Marsk, w.
Il. Savidge, an attorney of PocatelIo,
appearing for the defense. The ex-
animation was delayed until satisfied
that the ChinamAn was not seriously
injured. The examination, however,
would have been held few days
sooner, but was postponed to await
the arrival Of Dist. Attorney Chas.
n. Hays. Mr. Ssvidge arrived here
Monday evening and informed the
Judge that Mr.. Hays had told him il
was impossible for him to come.
Witnesses were then Immediately
summoned. The evidence was to
the effect that the Chinese had "big
day" on Dec. 1st and had congregat-
ed in a gambling house at Pioneer.
Tong Lung met Fung Hing on the
street and asked Mr.. Hing to liqui-
date little debt OF $1.8O, due Tong
Lung. Both went into the gambling
house, when Fung Hing picked up a
ass1t. zf l-I
Lung over the head and face. Mr..
Hing then made sprung for h4tchet,
when Mr.. Lung, who had peaknife
in his hand, proceeded to defend him
self, and drove the blade three times
into the anatomy of Fung Hing. 1t
was clearly case of self-defense.
The prisoner was discharged.

THE Spokane Review says: ssThe
train load of ore which left Wallace
for Denver the other day should have
had it's $4,000 worth of metal ex-
tractei frem the rock in this city in
stead of in city half across the con-
tinent. In addition to what it would
have brought in Spokane the freight
charges of s6,927 would have been
saved the owners had the smelter
been in operation, as it should long
since have been" And this suggests
that Idaho should reduce more of her
own ores. If Boise had large
smelling plant, with the proposed
Boise Butte road in operation, a por-
ton of the ore from the north could
be drawn here for treatment. Dem
yer can go out and haul ore 1900
miles. She thinks nothing of carry
ing ore from every part of Colorado,
Boise should study what that ore
market has done for the Queen City
and prepare to shape her own course
by the example set for her.-States'

eral as soon as he can examine the
plans which Col. Bates, the super.
intendent of free delivery, has pre-.

the service Can be performed in towns
of 400 and 500 Inhabitants in not
over two hours daily, at cost of
S1O7 per year for one hours service,
and S214 for two hours service. The
appropriation of $4,000 made at the
last session of Congress fol begin.
ming the experiment has not been
touched, and the whole of it can be
applied in the six months from Jan.
uary LIST to June 30th next. The
Postmaster General will ask and
will probably receive an additional
appropriation Of like amount for
continuing the experiment through
the next fiscal year. The plan will
be tried III small places for the pres
emf, because it is expected the lar
ger towns will be provided for by
the bill now pending to extend the
regular carrier system to towns of
5000 Inhabitants.

be seriously injured if not lynched

to bear on the Carrollton authorities

New York is enjoying and epidem-
ic of bogus divorces. Two lawyers,
named Hughes and Buttner, are
under arrest, charged with issuing
forged divorces to clients who APP
pear to have been ignorant of the
fraudulent character OF the papers
they received. These men operated
among persons of some standing,
one of their clients being ex-Mayor
Pendleton, of TT. Worth, Texas.
Then the Grand Jury has made a
preSentment in the matter of illegal
divorces granted by certain Jewish
Rabbis to Polish Hebrews. These
men think that the Rabbis have the
power to grant divorces, and in some
cases it is said that there have been
remarriages, which make the men
and women who supposed they were
legally divorced liable to impriSon-
ment tor bigamy. The best class of
the Hebrews and Of the RabbiS do
not countenance these divorces.
These revelations are not pleasant
to contemplate. Divorce is alto.
gether too easy in many Of the States
without the additional iniquity Of
fraudulent papers.
