THE legislature of 1898 has adjourned.
It is little too early yet to pass judg-
ment on what it accomplished. Some
good measures were passed as well as
some vicious ones. The separation of
the wheat from the chaff will have to
be completed before a final Judgment
can be had. Some measures of great
moment to the commonwealth have
been enacted and the obnoxious mea-
sures passed were few. 1t is to be de-
plored, however, that partisan politics
influenced the republican majority of
the house in some questions of general
interest. One of the most important
measures passed was the bill regulating
electric street railways. AS finally
passed, the bill permits the paralleling
Of existing steam railroads, provided the
courts can be convinced that the public
interests require it in any particular
case, which is perhaps the wisest dispo-
sition of the matter that could have
been made. Freight may be transported
under similar conditions. The true
merit Of q legislative body is not always
to be guAged by tho number of bills it
passed. There may be more virtue in
the defeat of one vicious piece of legisla-
ton than in the enactment Of thous-
and good laws.

ONE of the most curious rock forma-
tions in the world is to be seen in Ari-
iona. 1t is a short distance east of the
stage road between Tucson and Oracle
and stands on a knoll several feet above
the surrounding sand hills. 1t is a
most perfect representation of q camel
and is formed of one piece of granite.
1t is about sixty feet high and is very
white and smooth. There are very few
assures on the surface, and they
strangely are in the proper places to
form features The only real projec-
ton from the surface is exactly placed
for an eyebrow. The two humps are
plainly to be seen, and the neck is
curved beautifully.

ACCORDING to Bradstreet's, the ex-
ports of wheat from the United States
during the four weeks ended June %,
have been 14,251, $50 bushels. In addi-
ton to these shipments, which include
-four and wheat, and cover the move
ment from the Pacific as well as the
Atlantic coast, there have already been
freight engagements at Atlantic ports
alone for nearly 10000, 900 bushels more
of wheat that will go abroad during the
next six weeks. These shipments mean
a draft on Europe for over SIG, SOC, 000
even at the low price at which wheat is
now selling, and they constitute a cheer.
full augury just at this time.

THE FOSTER FAILURE

Million Dollars

Said That 1t VIII Approximate One
Million Dollars
TIFFIS, O., July l. - The fixture Of
Charles Foster and his business associates
in the city Of Fostoria has assumed pr
portions which are astounding.
J. L. Gornley. the assignee, filed a par
Iial report with the Probate Court today.
from which the startling information is
CLEANED that the failure will in all proba-
bility approximate, If not exceed, one mil
lion dollars GormleY is the assignee o:
Charles Foster and John ". Davis in
dividually, and OF Davis x Foster
Company. The assets of Davis are SIG, $50,
and liabilities $i4. so. s.; Davis * Eos
ter's assets $lSl. $50. sc, liabilities $2l3. 955
The Foster CompAny'S bank assets are
$40, 2S5 "a, liabilities 1895 OS9 40.
The papers in the assignment OF Mr..
Foster individually have not been filed but
enough has been ascertainsd to show that
tine shortage is even greater than in the
other firms.
These figures do not include the $3.50,
900 for which Foster s Company have en-
dorsed for the three glass works, brass and
iron works and Fostor!a Electric Light X
Power Company, nor Fosters individual
liability on his stock in these several en-
terprises
The figures astonish every body, and
none more so than Foster himself. Over
S1j. 700 of claims held by the wholesale
grocery firm OF Davis & Foster were re-
jrcted as absolutely worthless by the ap
praiscrs. Fosters account in his bank
is overvirawn $l36. 900, and that of John
L Wilkison Sl7, 900.

As AN illustration of the kind of men
we have on our western frontier the
following may be related: At the time
when the Indians of old Chief Colo
rows band were threatening trouble
out west one of the bucks" called at
an agency to inspect lieutenant who
had just been put in charge and to
show his contempt of the soldiery. He
had repeating rifle on his back, two
revolvers and knife in his belt and a
look of scorn on his brow. The lieu
tenant, who was unarmed, greeted him
cheerfully, and offered his hand The
Indian looked at it and turned away
with a grunt. 1t was a time to show
decision. The lieutenant, who was an
athlete, seized the red man by girdle
and jacket and dashed him violently
against tree, whereupon all the as
sembled Indians burst out laughing,
and the Inundated bully skulked away
without trying to use his firearms. 1t
is safe to say that redslzin suddenly &C
luired wholesome respect for Uncle
Sans soldiers

TO-DAY closes the fiscal year, and
while the financial condition of the
government Is not all that could be
asked for it is very much better than
there was any good reason, six
months ago, for expecting that it would
be at this time. In foot there were
abundant reasons six months ago for
the fear that, instead of the comfortable
cash balance on hand, the administra-
ton would have to begin the new year
with deficit.

A VERY disagreeable surprise is said
to have awaited Australian tourists
who lately landed in San Francisco.
As is customary, they expected to dis
count home drafts drawn by the colon
ial banks on London correspondents.
But when the unfortunates landed
they found no less than eleven banks
had gone into liquidation while these
oonfiding depositors were at sea. One
Scotchman carried four hundred sove-
reigns in belt about his waist, and
he wore smile a yard long. People,
however, found credit still if their
drafts We're drawn by either of the four
great banks of the antipodes,v viz: Bank
of Australia, Bank of New South
Wales, Union Bank of Australia and
Bank of New Zealand.

THE action of President Cleveland in
calling the extra session of congress a
month earlier than he had intended
shows the wisdom of the man. The
great slump in silver and the unex-
pected suspension of free coinage in
India justify the presidents action. The
repeal of the Sherman law is demanded
by the great business interests of the
country. There is a feeling of unrest
from one end of the land to the other,
and what day may bring forth is un-
certain. 1t is a condition, not theory,
that oonfronts the president. 1t is not a
time to play the game Of partisan poll
tics. The nations credit is at stake and
all good citizens should assist in the
restoration Of the currency of the
country to q sound basis.
