A Rumored Attempt on Giadstone,s
Life.

A Rumored Attempt on Giadstone,s
By Cable.
LONDON, April 27.-The Pail Mall
Gazette today contains most sen
sational article headed 'Rumors of
an attempt to shoot Gladstone, the
type used in tt headlines being the
largest IN use for that purpose. The
paper states that an alleged attempt
upon the prime ministers life was
made while Mr.. Gladstoua was
walking through St. James park
at midnight last night on his
way to his home in Downing street
The accuracy Of the report Of the
Pail Mall Gazette is doubtful. It is
probable that the story is based
upon the fact that a man now in
custody on the charge of firing a
revolver in a public thoroughfare
had IN one OF his pockets a note
book containing number of entries
OF the recent movements of Mr..
Gladstone.
Notwithstanding the statements
made that Mr.. Gladstone is in no
danger Of being shot and no i'm
portance is attached to the affair,
there is a growing suspicion that
i Mr.. Gladstone is nearer being fired
at than his friends are willing to
admit. The man under arrest is
named William Townsend. He is SO
years old, and q resident of Shelf
field. The officer who arrested him
saw him mount the steps of Mr..
Gladstone's residence shortly after
Mr.. Gladstone had entered. When
the policemen ordered him to de-
scend he fired at the officer, and sub
sequently struggled desperately
against being arrested. Townsend
asserts that the discharge of the
resolver was accidental
LONDON, April 27.-It has been
learned that Gladstone, who at
tended dinner party last night,
was walking home about the time a
man who fired a revolver was arres-
ted. He saw nothing Of the occur

any attempt WAS made to shoot him
| When the shooter was arranged
in bow street police court this a. N
The policeman who arrested him
stated that the man had discharged
revolver Ia the Horse Guards
parade near Downing street. He
evidently intended to shoot the Of
fcer.
An examination of the note boo}
revealed the fact that it contained
a msss Of rawlings against the Irisl
home rule, amid which the sugges
tion that the murder of Gladstone
would be justiiable. Upon this
slender foundation the report Of the
attempted murder of Gladstone wa:
constructed.

more universal attention given to a
speaChes than when Senator PETER
called up his resolution Of inquiry
concerning the legality of the con-
duct Of the national banks. In fact
such exceptions to the general mat
tention as have been noted in either
house, have been when Populist
speakers have addressed those bodies.
No man in the house of representa-
tives has had more marked and uni
versal attention than MIR. Pence Of
Colorado.
Now concerning the printing of
speeches in the record. Populists
may have done this, as the Capitals
"News Bureau" (?) indicates, or they
may not. Whether it is SO or not the
statement IN the Capital is no evi-
dence Of it; and if 1t be true it is moth
ing more than is done every day by
senators and representatives of both
parties. They realize that the
speeches which they stand upon the
floor and deliver to empty benches
or to lnattentiVe fellow members, and
which are designed, as a rule, for
their constituents at home, may as
well go into the Record without deliv-
cry as after it. The Capital knows
this very well if it knows anything
about the facts. Its total deprsvlty,
however, would not admit of a fair
statement which is not designed to do
injustice to Populist members. The
hopes Of the remnant of the republi-
can party rest upon the success of its
press in the practice of deception,
and the Capital may always be relied
upon to do it's full share Of this kind
of work. Though a mistaken and
short-sighted policy, it is the policy
the Capital has always pursued and
it is not equipped for any other.

The Populist platform of New
York, declares for state control of the
liquor traffic according to the plan
now on trial in South Carolina. There
can be no doubt that this plan affords
the only practical solution of this
problem; and while its adoption by
states may fail of the perfect success
that would result from its adoption
by the general government, because
of inability to control the msnufsc-
ture and wholesale traffic outside of
state limits, yet state adoption will
afford an object lesson, after fair trial,
that will commend the plan to all true
friends of the temperance reform.

Our MORTaAaE TNDEBTEDNEss.

telling their readers how rapidly
mortgages have been paid off since
theresults Of the census investigation
of 1890 were made public. Before
that time the mortgage indebtedness
of Kansas was placed below $5O,OOO,-
600, and nothing could induce the
Capital to Concede 1t to be possible
that it would reach that immense
sum. After the figures Of the census
bureau were published, and the stu
pendous debt could no longer be dis
puted, another line of tactics became
necessary. The amount of the debt
was acknowledged, and it was said to
be not much Of debt after all; and,
besides, it was beng so rapidly paid
that it's payment demonstrated how
lightly it rested upon the resources
of the people. The Capital un-
doubtedly thought there would be no
means of officially controverting it's
false claims Of payment, and they
would gain credence because official
data to the contrary would not be
accessible. In this, however, it is, as
usual, mistaken. On the 18th of
August, Senator Teller received from
the census Office, q letter over the
signature Of Frederick @. Waite, the
special agent Of the census bureau in
charge of that portion of the 11th
census relating to farm mortgages
from which we clip the following:
From history we notice that, whether we
turn our attention to the centuries Of pre-
historic human experience which the author
of the Pentateuch had in mind when he
penned thS immortal twenty-ifth chapter
Of LeVitiCus, or to the dawn Of Grecian or
Roman history, the revolutions and re-
bellions in our mother country, or to the
financial crisis OF modern times, such as
those in our own country in 1918, 1887, 1857,
1873 and 189S.'94, or to ADMINISTRATION
Russia, the one great fact which in every
instance towers above every other history
creating fact is debt.
Let us note she great increase during the
last twelve years in the private indebted
ness of our own people and contrast il with
the modest increase of scarcely 60 per cent.
in our wealth, nearly half Of which was but
q fictitious rise in speculative ground values.
As for the funded debts, those Of the rail-
roads increased from 1892, 900 in 1880
TO $5,46S, 600 900 in 1892, according to Poor'S
Manual, an increase of 129 per cent, while
the current debt has nearly doubled in the
last seven years. The funded debts Of other
companies were very small in 1880, but
many Of them have since assumed magni-
tude, especially during the last few years;
as, for instance, those Of the telephone,
telegraph and street railway companies,
and public water, gas and electric lighting
and power companies.
During the same time, the loans and
overdrafts Of national banks increased
from $S94, 100000 to $2,17l, 100000, while
those Of other banks, exclusive Of private
banks and Of real estate mortgages, in
creased from $S7S 1000 to $1,1s9, ,OOO,0 900
The most astonishing increase Of all, how
ever, is in the real estate mOrtgaged in
debtedness, as disclosed by the investiga-
Eons Of the eleventh census. Let US
remember that this is largely the debt Of
the hardest working and the poorest raid

1.-THE CAPITAL NEWS BUREAU.U

The Capital OF September Ia has
q lot of slush from what it terms the
Capital News Bureau" Of Washing
ton, D. O., but which might far more
properly be designated the Capital
deception bureau. The burden OF
this effort is to show that some of the
Popullst representatives have had
speeches printed in the Record that
were never delivered in the house;
and that Senator PETER is not re-
garded as OF any consequence by mis-
fellow senators in the upper house.
The latter claim is attempted to be
established by naming the senators
who were present in the senate cham
ber on the 9th inst. when it is stated
that the Kansas senator addressed
the senate upon an important subject,
and proceeding to show how each one
was occupied during the address.
Some were reading newspapers, some
opening and reading mail, some talk
ing to newspaper correspondence,
some reading the Record, and one
dreaming. Now it is not our pur-
pose to call in question the inatten-
tion Of senators. In a letter from
Washington, published in the ADvo-
CATE Of September 6, the writer has
called especial attention to this fea-
ture of congressional proceedings,
and has shown that such lnsttention
is the rule and not the exception. 1t
is rare indeed that any senator OF
representative is listened to in either
house. The members understand
very well that they are talking to
their constituents and not to their
fellow members. We have emphR-
sized the fact especially that neither
senators nor representatives are In
fuenced in their action by the srgu-
ments presented upon the floors Of
the two houses. They are more he-
quently influenced by the lobbies out
slde and by the patronage of the
administration. Argument is lost il
our national congress. It is per
fectly safe to safe that any or
dinary reader is better informed o.
what is said by members Of congress
than are the members themselves
These are facts that no observer oi
congressional proceedings will dis
pute. It is not to question this par
of the disclosure (D Of the Capital'I
''News Bureau" 90 that we write. i
is to show the utter depravity OF the
Capital IN attempting to make it sp
pear that Senator PETER ID in especia
disrepute in the senate by indicating
that thus insttention is an exception
when he speaks. If there is any ex
ception whatever to the general rule
Of inattention it is in the other direc-
tion. Upon this subject We know
whereof we speak, for We speak from
personal observation. 1t is perfectl!
safe to say that there has not been
more lively scene in the United State'
senate during this special session o
