One Hundred Cents. One Dollar

Why would not congress do we'll to
put 100 cents worth of silver behind
every dollar represented by the silver
certificates? That would bring silver
and gold to a parity SO far as our

keep the silver mines busy for a. long
time to come to supply the difference
between the amount Of silver bullion
now on deposit as collateral against
the silver certificates and the amount
that is required to be on deposit in

silver dollar shall have behind it as
much silver as is worth 100 cents in

SECRETARY HOKE SMITH tries to
make light of the Indignation of the
old soldiers who burned him in effgy
at Portsmouth, Ohio, last Saturday
night. He says that he does not
know Reed, whose pension was taken
away, nor anything about his case.
The secretary of the Interior must
have poor o pinion of the people ifhe
thinks that he can dodge the respon-
sibility for his policy in this way.
He has made the ruling for the pen
sion department, and will be held
responsible for all the injustice under
these rulings, whoever executes his or
ders, just as he insisted on holding
General Weaver responsible for all
the pretty annoyances to the Confed-
crates that occurred while he was in
command of the Union troops at Pu-
laski, Tenn. AS an editor Mr.. Smith
devoted much of his time last fall in
securing affidavits to show that Wea-
yer was A tyrant and abused the
Southern people while he was at Pu-
laski, and he held himr esponsiblefor
every act of his subordinate officers,
and for even private soldiers. Secre-
tary Smith is held responsible only
for the acts committed by his subor-
dinates in carrying oLt his policy
and rulings. He should not try to
dodge.-Inter Ocean.

Fresno, Cal, Dec. 29.-Chris. Evans,
who escaped from Jail yesterday, was
reported to have been seen early this
morning above Sanger. The true name
of Ed. Morell, who assisted Evans to
escape is Frank Morris Geo. Bird,
brother-in-law of Evans, said last night
that Bill Dalton assisted in Evans es-
cape, as the latter helped Graf Dalton
out of the Visalia Jail in 1891. He also
says that Evans twin brother, jim,
was killed at Coffeville, Kansas, the
time of the Dalton raid. Sheriff Scott
and posse, who went to Sanger on a
special train, are calling for more dep
uties, and a rumor that the bandit is
surrounded in Kings River bottom
seems we'll founded. The sheriff and
other officers here seem to think Evans
will be in custody before night.
1t is understood that girl named Lee
and two boys named Hutchinson nave
been arrested as accomplices in Evans

SOVEREIGN DICTATES.

Against Carlisles Bond Scheme.


Philadelphia, Dec. 29.-General Mas
ter Workman Sovereign, of the Knights
of Labor has issued an address to the
knights of the country appealing to
them to protest against the proposed
bond issue. He says he calls for this
new agitation because he has letters
from the South and West saying the
issue of bonds as asked by Carlisle will
be considered sufficient provocation
to justify a call to arms. He deprecates
such course and suggests that on the
first attempt of congress to grant the
authority asked, members OF the order
from Maine to California hold indigna-
tion meetings and send protests to their
members of congress. He says the issue
of the bonds would be an. outrage and
should brand with eternal infamy every
name connected with the dlsreputable
transaction.

Chicago, Dec. 29.-Attorney Trude, in

he had occasion to refer to Henry
George, the great single tax advocate,
whom he characterized as Migratory
and pestilential paranoiac" The jury
returned verdict of guilty, fixing the
sentence at death.
In his charge to the jury upon the
question of insanity, which was the
main point at issue, Judge Brentano
said if the jury believed the defendant
committed the crime as charged, know
ing it was wrong, it was the duty of
the jury to find the prisoner guilty even
though they believed that at the tine
The crime was committed, the prisoner
was not perfectly sane, "but if the jury
believes that at the time the act was
committed the prisoner was not Of
sound mind, but affected with insanity,
and that such affection was the cause
Of the act, then the prisoner ought t.
he acquitted. If the jury had any
doubts as to the prisoners sanity the
law gives him the benefit of the doubt
IL the jury believes the defendant la
boring under delusion which deprived
tho accused prisoner Of the power of
between right and wrong, then
the ttiry must acquit him. At 1880 tho
jury retired to consider their verdict. |
Nothing was heard from them for ex-
actly an hour. when they returned 9 |
verdict of guilty.

If suit was brought against the COM
pany the relief would not be paid. Mr..
Osburn has commenced suit against the
relief association. and the railroad COM
pany answers that the relief association
has no legal existence. and consists
merely Of rules governing employees.
Under these circumstances It is init
mated that the attention OF the proper
officials may be called to the matter
and the position taken that the COM
pany is doing an accident insurance
business without complying with the
state law The question first to be de-
cided, however, is whether or not an
employe can both sue the company and
recover from the relief association.

question Is soon to come before the

Burlington has a relief association for
the benefit OF it's employees. They are
expected to become members and pay
the assessments. Some time since an
employe named osburn was injured at
Creston, Iowa. He sued the company
and secured a judgment OF about $3.50
against the company for the injury.
He then demanded his benefit under the
relief rules, and was refused ON the
ground that those rules provided that
