VOORHEES, RECKLESS STATE
MENT.

In his speech the other day in the
senate, as we have heretofore said,
Senator voorhees, made the statement
that all the state banks, previous to the
war, had paid all their obligations in
gold; and that no one had ever lost by
state banks. In 1856 Indiana, which
state Senator Voorhees, has the honor
to represent in the United States senate,
had ninety -four banks organized under
the laws of that state fiftyone OF which
bad failed, and on the other forty-three
the discount ranged from twenty-five to
seventy-fve per cent in circulation.
In 1858, but two years later, the
broken banks numbered sixty eight, and
with one exception that state stood at
the top oft be list of st7tes whose bank
ing system showed its worthless1ess by
the number of its broken banks.
Indiana was strong Democratic
State, and gave Buchanan and Breckin-
ridge major ty of $4,000 in 1855. The
democrats had better take Voorhees, ID.

A DECISION as TO LETTERS.

The pUs,office department has very
properly decided that letter belongs 10
the writer until it is delivered to the per-
SOD to whom it is addressed. And If not
delivered the title thereto is in the
writer. The case came up from Call
fornia, where woman addressed
letter to her lover. and on the outside
of the envelope In writing she direc ed
the postmaster to deliver it to the ad-
dressee in person and to no one else.
He was not found, and the letter re-
NAMED in the postoffice. In the mean
time the woman met her lover on the
streets of San Francisco and killed him.
The prosecution was anxious to get
hold of this latter, believing it contained
discriminating evidence that would show
premedltation. The matter was referred
to Washington, and the department has
decided that the letter belonged to the
writer, and should be returned to her,

THE Florence Tribune denies that the
Walker estate troubles hsve been COM
promised. The report was that the
Indian girl Juana. had been given prop
erty to the value of half million dol
lars, ard that the Walker brothers
merlly kept the bank account old John
had in Los Angeles. The wish evil

the pale face many moons before she

ARIZONA shares in large degree the
genera! activity that mas recently mark
ed gold mining enterprises. Time was
whsn no prospector would trouble him
self with ledge of sold-bearing quartz
that assayed less than an ounce to the
ton on the surface. Silver mining Of
fered greater inducements. But things
are changed. Neglected prospects are
now being developed, and in many
places paying ore bodies have been
opened up. The gold output of Arizona
will no doubt be heavily increased in
future, AID it is not too much to anti
cipate that its value will in time exceed
the loss from the depreciation of silver.
One trouble with Arizona is that it has
been too modest about its own fine
resources and has net sufficiently coun-
teracted a general impression in the
east that its chief products are cacti
and cowboys. When the cheap humorist
who is circulating the Arizona Kicker
fiction dies. or he is otherwise provi
dentially incapacita,ed from libeling n
progressive, honest and honorable
people by further publication OF his
malicious nonsense, Arizona will have Il
chance to be known for what it is really
worth.-Mining aud Scientific Press.

The western press and western publ

The western press and western pubic
in general will find we'll worthy of at
tention Professor Edward W. Bemis'
article in the September Review Of
Reviews, on the "Silyer Situation IN
Colorado" DR.. Bsmis was educated in
economies under Professor Ely, at the
Johns Hopkins IN versity, and SUBJ
sequently for some years taught poll
tical economy IN the Vanderbilt univer-
sity. He is a. present connected with
the university at Chicago. He has
spent a considerable part Of the present
summer in the silver mining country,
and writes in strong sympathy with the
western view of the monetary question.
1t is evidently the intention of the
Revisw Of Reviews to give fair hear
ing to all sides. Following Professor
BemIs' sympathetic presep tation CT the
silver question from that point OF view
of the mining states, is trenchant and
rather savage attack upon the Sherman
act, and Indirectly upon bimetallsm,
from the distinguished pen of Won
Hoist, the great German authority. Mr..
Shaw, the editor of the Review of Re
views, in his editorial discussion of the
present condition of money and business,
takes the most pronounced view in
favor of the bimetallism and the per-
mauent use OF silver, condemns the
Sherman act, and pins his faith to the
prospect OF an international treaty for
free coinage.

The mill owners of Fall River, Mass,
talk of suspendlng or else reducing
wages twenty per cent. Half of them
have already suspended and $1,000 oper-
atives are on tie street. Last year the
mills declared sixteen and twenty per
cent dividends. Yet some of these same
mill hands roared for a change and
"down on the robber tariff" They are
enjoying the fruits of one with an
empty larder and a promiseof both. When
these toilers again tackle the political
problem the rooster will be drag in
democratic headquarters for want of
ready hands to pack them. 1t is barely
possible that these men will again be
foolish enough to sit upon themselves.

EaaE Accident in Deering.

Last evening Mr.. and Mrs. A. D. Smith
and a friend visiting them, Miss Tryon,
went to ride. Mr.. Smith had smart
young horse and double seated car
liage. The horse was afraid of the cleo
trio cars, and Mr.. Smith knew it, so on
the way to Deering he managed to keep
out of their way, until he turned by
Leighton's into the Stevens Plains road.
An electric car was standing in front of
the cemetery, and Mr.. Smith didn't see
it till it was too late to turn the horse.
The animal started on dead run. and as
he ran the wheels ON one side went into
the gutter on the side of the road and
striking one of the little wooden bridges
sent Mrs. Smith flying out on one side.
She cleared the wheel as she fell out.
The force of the blow broke one of the
planks on the little bridge and threw Mr..
Smith and Miss Tryon forward, but Mr..
Smith managed to pull the horse up af-
ter he had run some distance.
Mrs. Smith was taken into horse car,
and on reaching town was put in a chair
and carried to her home on Paris street
by Officer Merrill and another man. DR..
Marshall was called and found Mrs.
Smiths hip and arm badly bruised and
skinned but no bones broken. Mr.. Smith
drove the horse and carriage, which were
not injured, back to the city.
