to make a condensed statement and
report relating to the condition of the
Postal Savings bank. He considered
this department q very important
branch of the finance office. Ii was
important owing to the fact that IN
many cases people of moderate means
and laboring people have invested
their all, and hence it was clearly the
duty of the government to see that
everything pertaining to the depart
ment was carried on a sound financial
basis, which should be given publ
city. In the savings bank everything
must be beyond question, and all the
depositors secured and provided for.
The people who placed their surplus
cash and earnings in the bank were
entitled to this proposed monthly
statement Of their own bank. He
pointed out that Withdrawals from
the bank are due to several causes, a
number of which had been summar-
lied by MIR. Walter Hill, with whom
he had conversed on the subject. Mr..
Hill had pointed out that withdraw
ais were caused when small deposit
tors during hard times would
be obliged to take out So
at time, to be replaced
when times mended. Mechanics
and similar depositors were in the
habit of drawing the day be
fore the steamer left port. The
lack of public confidence in the gov
eminent, and hence in the bank, was
the cause of large Withdrawals, as
witnessed few months ago, before
confidence was re established by the
Provisional government. 1t was the
policy of the finance department now
to keep a good large balance on hand
TO meet daily calls. He submitted
the following statement for July:

Mr.. Damon further stated that he
had received the quarterly and half
yearly reports of the custom house,
from which he read extracts, and
which are published in full elsewhere
with his permission.
He also stated that at a previous
meeting he had submitted to the
councils statements as to debts due
and payable to April 1, 1893. He
now wished to supplement that state
ment to the effect that the accounts
then due by the government amour.
ted to over $4,000. Of that amount
he had paid S27, 800, leaving $4,000
to be provided for by the end of the
quarter. In settling these matters
he had been struck with the large
number of small bills. He had found
there were 1049 bills to be provided
for. 1t was these small items which
made such rapid inroads on the pub
lie money, He thought that further
economy was possible and should be
attempted by cutting these smaller
items.
Attorney General Smith pointed
out that the large number OF bills
meant itemized vouchers, and showed
good business methods were now
being practiced in the various de-
partments.
Mr.. Damon said there was
one item more he wished to
refer to, and that was for
public printing. He considered
the amounts spent for this item were
very large and he believed it reached
as high as twenty five or thirty thou
sand dollars a year. There appeared
to be no uniformity in the matter.
Each department had its own print
ing done. He suggested that the
chief clerks of departments meet and
arrange some plan or schedule by
which uniformity could be estab-
| lished. He wished to state that re-
forms were being carried out In
business methods in the finance de-
partment, where the books were now
posted and balanced daily.
In conclusion Minister Damon said
he wished to bring about reforms in
the departments to the extent that
everything in the nature of gov
eminent receipt or realization must
be paid into the treasury and orders
then drawn against the proper de-
partment. He cited the customs
department and the post Office to
illustrate the reform, where minor
sums had been collected and dis
bursed, according TO custom, without
being first paid into the treasury.
He did not blame those who had
acted under bad system, but he
wished to establish the principle that
government realizations, as such,
must be paid into the treasury to
sustain the financial method and
law.
The collector general of customs
had informed Minister Damon that
the custom house launch was broken
down and was OF no further use. 1t
would require about $3.50 to provide
a new boat. He therefore would in
troduce an act later covering this
point.
In answer to a question by Mr..
Waterhouse Minister Damon stated
about $4,000 worth of the bills refer
red to were old bills.
On motion the report was adopted
and placed on file.
Mr.. w. G.. Wilder, Of the special
committee appointed to consider the
military bill and report, submitted
the following report signed by all
the members except Mr.. Brown, who
was absent but had agreed to the re
port:

THE RECORDS WILL SHOW.

The records of the Justice Court
are probably the best evidence O,
whether Mr.. Thaxter was evel
charged with selling liquor without
license in Carson.
When Mr.. Thaxter was member
OF the Legislature six years ago,
during the same session Mr.. Thar
ter was the active supporter, and
We have every reason to believe the
Trainer of bill, to prohibit the sale
of spurious liquor after midnight.
The aim of the bill while osten-
sibly in the interest of temperance,
was really to drive the retail liquor
traffic from the saloons to the drug
stores, and every man in the State
interested in drug stores was an
active supporter of the bill.
After the session was over the Ne
vada Liquor Dealers Association set
a watch on Thaxter's drug store, and
soon succeeded in mailing the store
dead to rights selling liquor after
midnight and also retailing without a
liquor dealers license.
A complaint was sworn out against
Mr.. Thaxter and the regular court
proceedings began before Justice
Hawthorne.
James Torreyson was the District
Attorney. While the case was pend>
ing Mr.. Thaxter became indisposed
and the case was postponed from
tin to time.
7. = Liquor Dealers did not press
Mr.. ! laxter, but gave him every OPP
port .ty to disproye the charges.
The case dragged along for months,
the defense always asking for post
pOnements.
Finally the expected happened,
just as the liquor men had figured
it out, the case was quietly dropped
from the calander and was never
tried. The town had its quiet little
laugh and the ring chuckled to think
how they had bested the taxpayers.
We have been obliged to give the
full history of the case, as the News
has disputed our statements, but the
records viii show that we are cor
rect.
The Thaxters' idea of Law is that
the Statutes are made for everybody
but themselves.
Whenever the News can show us
where our statements are incorrect,
We are ready to correct them in the
next issue.

THE HEN,

There is no doubt that the gallina
ceous domestic fowl commonly called
the hen, is more of a trouble breeder
than any other domestic animal.
1t is the sagest of all the feathered
creation, and one wonders how it is
able to pack so much craft into SO
small head.
AS breeder of bad blood between
neighbors the hen has been historical
ever since the early days of Rome,
and earlier for aught we know,
George Washington's hens got him
into law suit, and General Grant
and Abraham Lincoln also had fights,
which sprang out of a misunderstand>
ing over chickens.
From time to time these pestifer-
Gus birds have stirred up the COM
munity and made business for the
courts.
Ii all the hens in the country ere
deported by Geary act, half the
lawyers in the country would take in
their shingles and seek other means
of livelihood.
We tried hens as pastime some
years ago, and the contrary fowls
took meals 10 our yard and laid their
eggs in Bender's. This discouraged
US and we devoured the fowls with
sad heart.
Were an ordinance passed requir-
ing all hen owners to pay license of
a dollar a year for each hen, peace
and quiet would supplant the panda-
monium which now reigns in this
beautiful city.

BAD WEATHER AT THE FAIR.

Features.

Mist and Wind Interfere with Attractive
Features.
CHICAGO, Oct. "A terrific wind swept
through the fair grounds. A drizzling
mist accompanied the wind and umbrellas
and mackintoshos were in great demand.
The Administration plaza furnished con-
tinuous source Of amusement for the Wis
itors. Hats were lifted from the head and
sent sailing in every direction. The women
vented their feelings in little shrieks, and
when they reached building they usu-
ally stayed there. As a result the grounds
presented a rather deserted appearance.
The features of the day were few and
unimportant. A parade of decorated
launches containing members of the
Carriage Builders association had been
announced for u o'clock, but this had to
be abandoned. The Carlisle Indian school
troops gave drill on the terminal at 4:3C
p. no. Five hundred school children from
Louisville, KY, arrived at the park. They
are in charge of Professor Taylor, and will
remain here several days.

THE DIPLOMATIC SERVICE.
Several Important Vacancies at the Presi-

dents Disposal.
WASHINGTON, Oct. There are still
several important vacancies in the diplo-
matte service of the government at the
presidents disposal. All the foreign mis-
sions of Importance have been filled with
two exceptlons-Russia and China-and so
far no names have been mentioned for
either of these that can be considered as
at all available. There has been vacancy
at ST. Petersburg since the resignation of
Charles Emory Smith, year ago. Minis
ter DENLY holds the post to China to
which he was appointed 10y President
Cleveland, and which he continued to hold
through President Harrison's administra-
tion after the refusal of the Chinese gov
ernmeut to accept ex-senator Blair; and
the nomination of his son TO an advanced
position in tn, legation makes it probable
that he will continue to represent US at
Pekin.
The president has also two or three va
cancies to fill in the Central and South
American republics, and besides these
positions there are still quite a number of
consular appointments. The president will
give his attention to all of these shortly.

THE DAY IN CONGRESS.
blackburn Offers Amendment to the
silver Purchase Repeal Bill.


silver Purchase Repeal Bill.
WASHINGTON, Oct. In a speech Black
burn intimated that he would prepare
and offer an amendment to the silver pur-
chase repeal bill which would embody his
views of fair compromise measure He
presented such amendment and it was
ordered to be printed. IL adopts the bill
rs it passed the house, strikes out the
Voorhees, declaration favoling bimetal-
lism, and adds to the house bill prcvi-
sion for the free coinage of silver of
American production-the difference be-
tween the metal price of the silver and its
money value when coined TO be retained
by the treasury as seiCnorage and this
seignorage to be sold for gold, either at
home or abroad, the gold received for it
to be kept in the treasury for the purpose
of maintaining the parity between the
two metals The debate on the silver
purchase repeal bill was then resumed.
Not even the earnest manner of Cum
mings of New York could awaken the
house from the letharCy into which it
seems to have fallen. There was no in
crease in the attendance and the various
speakers on the federal election repeal bill
received very little attention, although
| some of the arguments advanced were
worthy of grave consideration
