LIEUT.. PowHaTAN CLARKE.

The war departm Mt has lately come
in for some rather candid comment in
connection with the lamenled death OF
Lieutenant PoShatan Clarke. As an
officer of brains, energy, and Ell
thusiasm, and one, moreover, who had
won the United States medal OF honor
for special gallantry in action againt
Apache Indians, Lieutenant Clarke was
allowed to avail himself of an op-
portunity to serve a year in the German
army. He joined the Eleventh Hussars
at Dusseldorf, worked hard, learned all
he coull of German military methods,
and made regular reports of the results
OF his observations to the adjutant
generals Office in Washington. Whe2
he came home he made every effort TO
hsve his reports published, but was
denied that satisfaction, partly because
be could EoF convince the authorities
that his recon mmendations were of value,
partly because it was averred that In
his reports he had criticised the
service" Finally he began to commu-
nicate his views in newspaper articles
published in the New York Herald, but
was warned that continuance In that
method would expose him to trial by
court martial. If the assertions Of his
eulogists are well founded, his death,
with all his music in IN him."
viii bring relief IN quarters where
his energy was a source of scomfort,
and his military knowledge something
OF a menace to esse and quiet life
1t would be rash 30 assert, without
knowing what IL his reports, that it
was a mistake not to publish them, but
the story OF his experiences, as it has
lately been told, recalls the impassioned
declaration made a month or two ago
by Mr.. Frederic Remington, about |
the military fogies in Washington
bureaus who etrangle live soldiers with |
red tape.-Harper's Weekly.

Pacific raid the assessment was excessive
and out of proportion to that fixed by
other states and territories upon rail-
road lines; the portion Of the territory
through which the road passed was
subject to disastrous washOuts at certain
seasons of the year, as has been shown
within the past month. He further
declared that during the past year that
portion of the Southern Pacific between
New Orleans and San Francisco had
been operated at loss to the company,
caused chiefly by the unremunerated
expense of operating that portion Of the
road which runs through Arizona. The
former assessment Of $500 per mile,
which had been raised to Sl0,S00, he
believed to be just and would be salts

The committee appoin ed at the re-
cent silver mass meeting to arrange for
an expression OF the people of Califor-
MIA on silver, met Saturday evening at
the Palace hotel, San Francisco, and
adopted several resolutions. 1t was
voted that the committee shall work
only in support of the proposition to re-
store the free coinage of silver of full
legal tender value at a ratio with gold
not exceeding sixteen to one; to invite
the people OF the state to hold mass
meetings ca tho 9th inst, and to for
ward their demands direct to members
of congress, so that they may reach
Washington not later than the 2Sth inst.
A committee. consisting OF Chairman

appointed. Il will report the form OF

IT is between the Drawn and muscle
of the west and south against the gold
hosrders of the east that the conflict
over silver has arisen. The advocates
of an increased use of the white metal
are found largely in the west and south
of the Mason and Dixon line. Neither
section of the country can accom-
plish the result single handed, but
unitedly they are invincible. The
United States has the power to place
silver on a pariyy with gold and the
ability to maintain it il she will.

a recent scene at thu local pension

One decrepit old man, after having

his face.
