Secretary HnIxa Smith "

Secretary Hoke Smith was hung
in effigy by the enraged citizens
of Rome, a little town of Adams
county, Ohio, Saturday night. A
number of pensions have been sus-
pended there, creating much i'll
feeling, but the climax was reached
when the pension of J. L. Reed, d
veteran of the Eleventh Illinois
cavalry, aged 8s, was dropped.
Reed served four years and five
months, and his pension was his
sole support. When he received
the news of his suspension he be-
came a raving maniac. This
aroused the citizens and they, led
by John Furnier, a democrat, hung
the secretary in ef1igy in the pres
ence of 1000 people, irrespective
of party affiliations.

the current of business and indus
try. The. shrinkage in values,
which began on March 4 and has
been intensified by democratic i'm,
becility at Washington, has pre-
vailed throughout the whole coun.
try, and has cost the people, as The
Press has shown by incontroverti
bic figures, over $1,oO0,O0o,O0O.
II is at once foolish and cowardly
for democrats to try to evade re-
sponsibility for this unprecedented
depreciation Of the peoples prop
erty. The facts are self-evident.
The nation was splendidly pros
porous under republican govern
ment. 1t has gone from prosperity
to panic in four months under the
government of the party that is
pledged to PROSTATE American Sc
curitles and debase American cur
rency. The free trade democracy
and its president have robbed the
people of more than billion dol
lars since democracy returned to
power at Washington.-New York

For the first time since the pas
sage of the Sherman silver law
the treasury in July failed to buy
the full quota Of 100000 ounces
of silver. The total purchase for
the month was 2,364,O00 ounces,
leaving shortage of 2,116,OO0
ounces. Congressman Pence and
Bell of Colorado were in Preston's
room at the time he rejected all
offers and made a counter offer.
Both of them were much con-
cerned about what they claimed
was the effort of the treasury de-
partment to s.bear" the price of
silver in the markets of the world.
They indicated their purpose TO
precipitate the silver discussion on
the first working day of the extra
session by resolution of inquiry
as to whether or not the secretary
of the treasury had not exceeded
his authority in refusing to pur
chase the 100000 ounces in July
as provided by law.

BENEFIT OF HUMANITY.

Olympia dispatch, July 81:
With the curious request of con-
tributing his body to the dissecting
table "for the benefit of humanity
and after haying kept two pistols
by his side for ten years with
which to avoid lingering illness,
of which he had a horror, Francist o
Hoffman, a wealthy German mer-
chant of Olympia, died today three
hours after an operation. He left
an estate valued at nearly $780,
900. When the final operation
came Hoffman warned his ply
sicians that the time must be 9
o'clock, not one minute sooner or
later. He was a model of exact
ness and precision. Hoffman's
trouble was hernia, which ulti-
mately ended in such disol ganiza-
ton that life would not be carried
OH naturally. The operation was
as good as expected under the Cir
cumstances. On the dissecting
table Hoffman called the ply
sicians around him, saying:
81 hope YOU will be successful
in your operation. My fate is in
your hands. i'll die it is the re-
suit of necessity. Do not ask to be
consulted in anything. You, DIR.

WHAT THE BILLION MEANS.
A billion dollars is a sum S

A billion dollars is a sum so
enormous that it is most impossible
for the mind to comprehend It's
vastness. 1t would give one thou
sand men fortunes of a million
dollars each. It would provide
twenty thousand men with COM
petence of fifty thousand dollars.
It is nearly twice as much as the
entire interest bearing debt of the
United States. 1t would pay all
the expenses of the national gov
ernment for two years and a half.
If divided equally it would give
about eighty dollars to every man
who voted for president and vice
president in 1892. 1t is three,
fourths as. much as all the currency
in the United States-gold, silver
and paper.
Enormous as this sum is, it does
not equal the loss to the American
people that has been caused by
democratic rule. The country
would have been more than bill
lion dollars richer today if Cleve-
land had been defeated and Har-
rison elected last November. The
triumph OF the party of free trade
and dishonest money has reversed

Thos. d. Riordan, of San Fran
cisco, attorney for the Chinese Six
Companies, states that, in connec-
ton with Joseph Choate, of New
York, and other counsel, he is pre-
pairing to make a second test of
the constitutionality of the Geary
Chinese registration law at the
October session of the United
States supreme court. He states
that at the former hearing of the
case Justice Harlan was in Paris,
and that it is the practice of the
supreme court to consent to re-
consideration Of the points in
volved in a decision given by
other than full bench, where i'm
portant constitutional questions
are concerned. He also cites the
fact that the death of Justice
Blatchford has removed one of the
five jurists who upheld the law.

EFFECT OF THE SURRENDER.

The Siamese government mas
accepted the full terms Of the
French ultimatum, the substance
of which was printed i'll last weeks
GAZETTE. There is yet some little
differences between France and
England regarding the terms, but
the difficulty may be regarded as
practically settled.
The New York Herald's Paris
cable says: "Siam has yielded and
the incident, therefore, is at an
end. 1t has mad as its practical
and material consequences the in
creasing of frances colonial power
in ASIA and a still further strain
on the relations of France with
England, but it will also have
moral consequences Of still greater
importance, which are now at
tracing the attention Of all the
statesmen and diplomatists of Eu-
rope. The incident shows that the
energy and enterprise of France IS
once more wide awake. The entire
French press, without exception,
and all political parties of the
country, so soon as the remarks of
England became a little more
threatening, sustained the govern
ment, and when the French cabi-
net appeared to be hesitating the
old Journal des Debats demanded
even more strongly than Henri
Rochefort's Intransigeant, the
adoption of the most energetic
measures. Monarchial organs,
such as the Soliel and the Gaulois,
repeated every day that old French
traditions would not have tolerated
any drawing back. The anti-Se-
mitic organ said that if France
drew back it would be because the
Rothschilds were as powerful in
France as in England, where they
are related to. Lord Rosebery. Pa
pers that reflect the average bent
of public opinion, such as the FL
garo and Temps, were obliged to
follow with the current, and such
popular sheets as the e'Petit Journal
demanded every morning that the
government should act energetic
ally. When such unanimity reigns
in the press, it must be admitted
that the public is also unanimous.
Although the French take but lit
tie interestin colonial affairs and
are always ignorant of what is
taking place at distance, yet the
instinctive resistance which reigns
in the French nature will never
submit to an insult to the national
honor or to the flag of the country.
France knows her army is stronger
now than it ever was before, either
as against England or Germany
and the whole nation would rise
as one man if the country. were
attacked. The world has believed,
even many Frenchmen have
thought, that the internal dissen-
sions of France dominated the pa
triotism of the country. This is
false, and this is why passing
events have made more impression
on public opinion than what is
taking place on the Me-Kong OF
