SPEAKING Of the Kansas City Times,
the Lesvenworth Times Of October
12 says: "The papers circulation in
Leavenworth does not longer begin
to pay it's way on account of the un-
ssvory reputation of its local corre-
spondent." Holy Moses Talk of
the "unsavory reputation" of corrs-
Spondents. Think of D. o. McCrsy
and A. G. Stacey, the Topeka corre-
spondents of the Lesvenworth Times!
The very thought has a bad odor.

The pastor in reply said, II will not
cease my efforts until yonder door swings
in to the hghtest touch of the poorest
man in this city"
1t did swing open, and a poor man
went through it. But he went from
the inside out. There was change Of
pastors in that church. That was all.
And the pastor who made that vigorous
remark-he who had to fold his tent and
move away-was man of great ability
and national reputation.
So does the church continue to try to
do what Jesus Christ said could not be

Professionalism as an organic power
has declined in membership and power

Need there be any wonder at it2 And
yet while assemblies of workingmen
hiss the name of the church they cheer
the name Of Jesus. Christianity is one
thing, churchianity another. They do
well to make the distinction.

transacted, we have a dishonest dollar.
That which robs or takes undue Rdvan-
tage cannot be honest. Therefore, when
this government increased the circulS-
tion 80 that prices were increased and
general prosperity originated as during
the war, and then, after contracting an
indebtedness, by law, decreased that
amount Of money, or failed to sustain the
amount per business transacted, the dol
lars Of this nation became dishonest dol
lars; dollars that enabled the holders Of
the claims against the people to obtain
double and treble the amount Of the
products OF toll that would have been re-
quired, or required double the amount of
wheat, corn, meat, or in fact any Of the
products Of labor.
Grover Cleveland prates great deal
about an honest dollar, Notwithstanding
the fact that he demands system that
would produce the most dishonest dol
lar. In his late letter he declares that
he would not be implicated in condi-
tion that will make him snswersble to
any lsborer or farmer in the United States
for the shrinkage in the purchasing
power Of the dollar. AS though the far
mer or laborer was a producer Of dollars,
therefore greatly distressed by cheap
dollars and good priced wheat, corn, Ia
Dor, etc.
Grover is perfectly willing to originate
a system of finance that will cause the
shrinksge of the price of every day labor
and every product Of the farm, the ugh.
He says he wants our dollars equal in
purchasing power in every civilized ma
tion. Does he expect that we can do by
law for other nations what we have for
hidden by law any other nation to do for
US? Or does he desire the substitution
of commodity (gold) for our money in
reslityP If such is the fact, and it ap-
pears to be, why not repeal all laws on
finance and simply stamp the weight and
fineness on every piece Of gold and let
barter and trade be the practice? Such
proposition would be preposterous,
even to a gold-bug. And yet 10 srgu-
ment they claim to-day that that is sll
our coinage laws contemplate, viz: in
suriDg to the public certain weight and
fineness.
In this cry for an honest dollar, gold is
declared to be the only honest dollar,
and that without its general use in this
country our credit and prosperity will be
gone. Secondly, that when gold is on the
fly, Rs has been the case lately, our credit
and prosperity goes with it. Such claims
are false, as I will show. From 1864 to
1863 we exported $290,O29,4SO more gold
than We imported, and yet our credit as
a nation improved, and our people pros
pered.
Again, 1t is claimed that cheap silver
drove the gold from our country lately
and caused the distress, notwithstsnd-
ing the fact that but very few million
dollars Of silver was coined in the period
above mentioned, when over s29O0O0,0O0
fled. We exported over slOO,OO0,OOO in
gold in 1894, yet no one heard it init
mate that our country was being
RUNE by it. The fact is the e1ports-
tion gold cuts no more figure in the
prosperity Of this nation than the ex-

afternoon, and her story is as fol-
lows:
Her husband Naval found her
and several others eating at a
house on Smiths lane. She saw
her husband coming, and was
about to call him to come and eat
when he fred his first shot at her.
She ran down stairs and then be-
came unconscious. She did not
know when DR.. Day extracted the
ball from her shoulder at the po-
lice station on Saturday night.
She was sent up to the Queens
hospital at about 10o'clock the same
night. Passed a comfortable night.
She is a half-caste Chinese woman
and about 3S years Of age.
Naval is a n6tive, and 80 years
of age. He is a painter by trade,
but has been working Of late as a
longshoreman owing to hard times.
The couple have been living har-
moniously together lately until
Ioela rented an adjoining room
several months ago. Naval then
noticed his wife's manner toward
him changing. Il was her custom
to get up in the morning and do
the cooking. Since Ioela's arrival
she refused to cook for her hus-
band. On several occasions Naval
found her cooking food for Ioela-
He warned her to desist, but she
was headstrong. Whenever she
wanted to go out for two or three
days she would raise a family
row as a pretext. Stories
by eye-witnesses relating to
his wife's conduct during his alb
sence at work were continually
brought to him, but he tried the
best he could to settle the matter
peaceably with his wife.
On the other hand, Mrs. Naval
accuses her husband Of being a
drunkard, and when she remon-
strated against his cravings for
liquor it would only make the
matter worse. Her husband had
threatened to kill her before, and
on that account she had hidden
his pistol. Naval either bought a
new one, or had borrowed one.

ment To-day.

The steamer Iwalani, Captain
Freeman, arrived Sunday at
noon from Kalalau, via MakaweE,
Kauai. An immense crowd Of
people were present at the wharf
to hear the latest news. As soon
as the steamer locked near the
o. S. S. Co.'S wharf, a number Of
officials and reporters boarded her

Officer Kamana and Jim Macy
were late arrivals from Kalalau.
News had been received by the
steamer Mikahala in the morning
that two of the soldiers had been
killed by Koolau. The arrival Of
the Iwalani confirmed the news,
and expressions Of sympathy for
the slain men were heard on every
side.

Mrs. Bindt, native of Hanalei
Kauai, and a resident of this city

OK BOARD THE STEAMER IwALANI,
Saturday a. NJ, July Sth: Word was
received last night that the giant
powder could not be obtained by the
guards at the Waimea pass. This
fact is not such a great disappoint-
ment, as, in the opinion of the guards,
it would be impossible to reach posi-
ton Immediately over the outlaw,
which would be necessary to use the
explosive to advantage. While the
men were returning to camp, and
while they were on the Waimea trail,
they saw the hiding-place of Koolau.
They say that the small ledge on
which he stands holds large boulder
which offers him ample protection
from bullets fired directly opposite his
place. Behind the rock is a small
cave, which is estimated to be about 10
feet deep. The leper, with his wife
and child, live in this. Another pro-
position was advanced last evening as
a means of capturing the murderer.
II is, in brief, to cut 4 new trail on the
side of the mountain to n point where
his stronghold can be commanded.
1t would be n little hard work to ac-
complish this, but, in the opinion of
the best men in the camp, it is good
plan, and one that will win if it is
carried out.
The other day the soldiers found
two Winchester rifles buried under
some rocks near one of Koolau's de-
serted camps. These were brought to
camp, and last night one of the Wal
mea guards identified them as belong
ing to the StolZ party. 4 large pistol
is the only weapon missing now. The
natives say that Koolau has it.

this morning on the Iwalani. He is

CAMP Dole, kALALAU VALLEY,
Friday, July 7th.-Matters have been
very quiet about the camp since yes
terday morning. Reports from the
front are to the effect that Koolau, or
his deadly rifle, has not been seen
since Wednesday. \ strict guard is
kept night and day within q short dis
lance Of where he is located to pre-
vent him from decamping. Yesterday
morning early the mountain howitzer
was carried up to the brow OF steep
hill which is situated nearly opposite
the stronghold of the lepers. The
place was shelled, but owing to the
imperfect knowledge of his hiding
place, il was a difficult matter to drop
the shells TO advantage. In all nine
teen shells were. exploded against the
mountain side and it is thought that
the last shot reached the required
spot. OF course it is only a conjecture
and for fear of losing another life no
one has been sent to investigate.
Larsen has made up his mind TO re-
sort to strategy, and this morning
three natives were sent to the top of
the Waimea pass, under the guard of
two sGldiers. The idea is to have the
guards at the pass send to Waimea for
some giant powder, or some other
strong explosive. After securing the
same, the natives viii guide the sol
diers to a spot Immediately over where
Koolau is hidden and then blow him
to pieces. AT this writing the plan
mentioned seems to be the only posi-
BILE one as our men cannot reach him
without further loss of life.
This programme will be carried out
tomorrow, it is expected.

to carry out the plan is offered quite

Shot Down Like Dogs.

Folsom prison has furnished an
other dreadful tragedy which is dis
grace to the state, and should result
in Warden Aull serving long term
for his part in it. On June 9th
several of the desperate conviets who
had planned an escape made a break
in the quarry, headed by George Son
tag one of the famous bandit gang.
They captured the foreman of the
gang and used him as shield against
the shots of the guards and having
several guns and revolvers made a
fight The guards opened fire on
them from all directions and lastly,
after the foreman had escaped from
his captors, the gattling gun was
turned loose on the poor wretches
with the result that three were killed
and four wounded. Sontag being
among the latter and suffering
severely. After the three men were
killed and the gattling gun began
operations the desperate convicts
used the bodies of the dead as barri-
cades to protect themselves. A SUBJ
sequent examination showed that one
of the victims had been pierced by
twenty-four bullets. Warden Aull
says he knew an outbreak was in
tended and he imported lot of sharp
shooters from the mountains, making
them temporary guards and ordered
them TO kill at once any one who at
tempted to escape. The butchered
men were A. Dalton of San francisco,
Henry Wilson, Solano county, and
Frank Williams a life timer. Two
young convicts who were merely
spectators were shot, one, Thomas
Schell, fatally.

session of congress by the following
proclamation
#" EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHING
TON, d. c., June 80, 1S9S.-Whereas,
the distrust and apprehension con-
corning the financial situation which
pervade all business circles have al
ready caused great loss and damage to
our people, and threaten to cripple
our merchants, stop the wheels OF
manufacture, bring distress and pri-
walton to our farmers, and withhold
from our workingmen the wage of
labor; and, whereas, the present per-
ilous condition is largely the result of
financial policy which the executive
branch of the government finds en-
bodied in unwise laws which must be
executed until repealed by congress;
now, therefore, /, Grover Cleveland,
President of the United States, in per-
Torrance of constitutional duty, do,
by proclamation, declare that. the eX-
traordinary occasion requires the con-
vening of both houses of congress of
the United States at the capitol in the
city of Washington on the It'll day of
August next, at l. o'clock noon, to
the end that the people may be re-

called down the wrath OF the people
OF this country by pardoning the three
Chicago anarchists who in May, 1856,

The Cholera in Europe.

WASHINGTON, June 3O.-The reap.
pearance of cholera in Europe does
not cause any alarm among the treas
ury officials. Reports are daily re-
ceived from United States consuls and
other agents abroad, and they concur
that the climatic conditions so far in
Europe are not conductive to the
spread of cholera there. Precautions,
however, will not be relaxed.
Cause of the Victoria Disaster.
An investigation in the loss of the
warship Victoria has led to the con-
clusion that the dreadful catastrophe
was due to an inexcusable blunder of
the vice admiral, in giving such an
order and to the fact that Admiral
Markham obeyed it and rammed the
Victoria. The latter will be tried by
court martial. The loss will reach
fully 400 men.
