Onyx Mines in Washington,

A vein of onyx was discovered in Gar
field County, Washington, recently
which the report of an expert miner
alogist who visited and examined the
find week OF so since shows to be of
considerable extent and probable value.
The possible extent of the mines il 1000
acres, and openings for a mile show a
ten-foot vein. The people of the vicinity
claim that their county is possessed Of
the only onyx mines in the United States.

Within the past two years number Of
reefs and islands in the Pacific Ocean,
long known to mariners, have disap-
peared from view, leaving no evidence
that they ever existed. No one under
stands the phenomenon, unless it be that
here and there the floor of the ocean has
subsided with unusual rapidity, though
not with such violence as to be betrayed
by the agitation of the sea. The fact is
simply known that these stretches Of reef
or bits of land, some of them rising from
the depths, and all marked on the charts,
eau no longer be found. One or two wal
ships, with orders to visit some Of these
places, have eruiset around in great be-
wilderment, unable to lind the objects OF
their guest.

WE WELCOME THE ISSUE.

The republican city council of the
city of Topeka has adopted resolu-
tions condemning the action Of the
police commissioners in sbolishing
the "bull pen" and rock pile, and in
structing the city attorney to take
steps for their restoration. This is
as it should be. If the republican
politicians of Kansas desire to go be-
fore the people Of the state upon q
platform Of brutality, we welcome the
issue. The partisan blindness and
bigotry Of these demsgogues has
entirely subverted their judgment,
and is leading them pell-mell to the
brink Of utter run. "Whom the gods
would destroy they first make mad"

THF STATE JOURNAL OBJECTS.

The State Journal, referring to our
statement last week that it's criticisms
of the rock pile and the "bull pen"
are Of recent date and are seemingly
prompted by a partisan spirit, en-
phatically denies the soft impeaCh-
ment. It says the Journal has
always opposed these police abuses,
and thinks if we had been a resident
of Topeka longer we would not have
made the criticism. Perhaps not.
We have lived here something over
three years, however, and during this
time we are quite sure it's criticisms
Of the rock pile and ''bull pen" have
not been very loud. However this
may be, one thing is Certain-the
man who, above all others, is entitled
to most credit for the modification OF
police abuses, so far as they were
modified under republican admins
tration, has been subjected by the
Journal and other republican papers
to the bitterest and most unressoD-
able persecution for no other reason
than because Of his interference with
such things and his public denuncis-
tion Of them before the people. Were
we disposed to tear open old sores,
we might relate some circumstances
connected with this persecution that
are probably not pleasant to think
apout now. If the Journal is sineere
in its present attitude toward these
police brutslitles it might afford to do
tardy justice to q man it has united
with other republican papers to 80
outrageously abuse and persecute
without cause.

maintain their selfrespeCt. Has our
government no duty TO perform in
such q case? Have our congressman
nothing more important than tariff to
talk about at such a time as this?
Shall the fear of ''paternalism" pre-
vent interference with the system
which has caused these conditions? :?
Can government only provide work
and food for men after they become
criminals? Must society be without
protection from the dangerous ele'
ments that threaten it lest the gov.
ernment become too paternalistic? Z?
These are questions which must be
met, and met fairly and intelligentlY,
or the dangers that threaten will cul-
inmate in destruction. How long will
partisan prejudice prevent such fair
consideration?

TOO MUCH MONEY IN TIE COUNTRY.

Secretary Carlisle has discovered
the cause of all our difficulties. In
his late report he says:
QThat the amount of money in the country
is greater than is required for the transaC-
tion Of the business Of the people at this
time is oOnOlusively shown by the fact that
il has accumulated and is still accommodating
in the financial Centers to suOh an extent as
20 constitute a serious embarrassment to
the banks in which it is depoeited, many Of
which are holding large sums at loss.
That this is what sils the country
must be true, because Mr.. Carlisle says
80. Now, let the reader feel in his
pocket and see if that is what sils him.

The little discussion between s.

thing, and that is the dexterity with
which the aforesaid editor evades the
issues presented by Mr.. Scott by the
expression of intense solicitude re-
specting the dangers to the Farmers
Alliance, as an organization, from
participation in politics. So fearful
is the editor Of the Republican that
the Alliance will suffer injury from
this cause, that in sounding the note
Of warning, he forgets all about the
questions of public policy suggested
by Mr.. Scott. This is not surprising,
but it Is cowardly, and his intense So
licitude for the Alliance is disgust

lating to the unemployed throughout
the country and to their condition.
We desire to give our readers some
thing Of an idea Of the general Condi-
tion Of the country, and that is the
occasion Of the devotion of so much
space to these matters this week.
We do not wish to omit in this
connection mention of the dangers
attending this situation. Hungry
men are dangerous men always, just
as hungry wild beasts are dangerous;
and who can blame them, when sur
rounded by On abundance of every
thing they need, and which a false
and vicious social and economic sys-
tenn has made it impossible for them
to obtain by honest toll? 1t is only
natural that they should become dan
gerous, and it will not do for the
American people to overlook the
perils to which they are exposed. 1t
will not do to rest in fsncied security
while the dangers thicken, and the
storms continue to gather. The sys-
tenn under which wealth is ooncen-
trating, and poverty extending, is
creating a wide gulf between the rich
and the poor not only in condition
but in feeling. While these diverse
conditions are merely the natural
outgrowth of vicious system for
which we are all responsible, and
while the millionalrep which our folly
has created should not be charged
with all the blame for such conditions,
still the hungry and unthinking man
will not stop to philosophize upon
the subject, nor will he govern his
conduct by the philosophy Of others.
The people Of this countrp are con-
fronted with a condition to-day which
must be met with wisdom and with
humanity, or the very foundations of
society will be overturned.

members Of his cabinet, the senators
and representatives are guarded by
