WASHINGTON, May 1s.-Kittel Hal
vorsen, of Minnesota, will tomorrow, if
possible, introduce a resolution in the
house providing for an investigation of
the alleged frauds in estimating and re-
r porting timber now going on in MIME
sofa. The resolution is at the request
of William Bull, who was formerly tim
Der inspector. Bull made his first COM
plants of fraud to Secretary Noble
early in January, in person, and was
returned to Minnesota by Noble to
watch for further developments. The
secretary at the time OF Bulls visit to
Washington gave him an order allowing
him travelling expenses. The order was
afterward refused, and Bull will en-
deayor to prove that the frauds haye5
been carried with high officials knowl-
edge. He has discriminating letters
from various timber inspectors, and has
certain damaging private memoranda
lost 10y the inspectors, in which timber
sections reported as containing 40,U00
feet are rated by private marks as higlr
as $4,000 feet. If the resolution passes
the house, shlngs will be interesting fort
those high in authority, as well as for
certain Minnesota lumbermen.

What an Eau Claire Man Thinks
OF the Russell Trial.


William Carson, of Eau Claire, one of
the bondsmen OF Mrs. Russell, now on
trial in that city for the murder of Mrs.
Erickson, was guest at the Merchants

ing of the case. that he would have
gone on her bond had it been for much
greater sum, believing her to be inno-
cent.
''In my opinion Mrs. Russell is inno-
cent of the crime with which she is
charged" he said, land she will not be
convicted. This jury will either dis
agree or acquit, and the latter expect.

Senator sherman'1 powerful speech
on tho silver question receives well de-
served praise IRON political opponents
as WE'LL as from political friends. 1t is
not the speech OF demagogue, has in
it nothing OF the shallow temporizing
of the cheap politician, and discusses
the whole question in spirit and man
nor worthy of a true statesman. Re-
garding the question Of silver coinage,
Senator Sherman speaks without hesits-
ton or the slightest yielding to
popular favor. He met this is
sue in Ohio, as,=-s hezA says
with iustifiable pride, and the
struggle has resulted in victory for
sound money. At this time the ounce
OF gold will buy twenty-three ounces OF
silver, but it is proposed to coin the
silver at the rate OF sixteen ounces for
an ounce OF gold. This the senator
says, would advances the pound sterl-
ing from its present rate of 81 So to
something like s., and the 20-franc
pieces to 30-franc," while q fund OF
nearly 4,0O0,0O0,00O ounces Of silver is
now in sight, and It's well known that
the production is increasing enormous
~" Either this vast mass OF silver in
the world must be lifted in value, or
else gold must be demonetized here
The existence, of premium on gold is
its actual characterization. The sena-
tors strong argument will have weight
with business men and other intelligent
people throughout the country.
