In the account given of 1.-The wittiest
woman in France" by the PRESS Sat.
urday, there is mention of "Gyp's"
grandfather, Mirabeau Tonneau. This
man has been made familiar to English
readers by Carlyle's famous essay in the
Westminster Review as Barrel" Mira
beau, literal translation of Tonneau,
the nickname given to him from his bulk
and the quantity of drink he usually
held. He was younger brother of the
great demagogue, and is known to Sc
date historians as Boniface Riquetre,
Vicomte de Mirabeau. He is of some
interest to us because he served with La
fayetre and Rochambeau, coming over
here in 1880. Carlyle pictures him as
a wild surly fellow, with much wit in
him and much liquor" In the French
Revolution he took the Royalist side,
became colonel of an emigrant regiment,
and in 1892 died in drunken brawl
in the emigrant camp across the Rhine.
Barrel Mirabeau was famous for his bit
ter tongue. 1t was he who said, when
his brother reproved him for intepper-
ance, of all the vices of our family.
that is the only one which you havepleft
for me-" 1t seems that "Gyp" comes
honestly by her satirical turn.

The rumor that there is to be an issue
of bonds about the first of January is
promptly denied, and it is probably un-
true. The Democratic party has ex-
pressed such strong opposition to this
expedient for helping out the treasury
that a Democratic administration would
hardly resort to it except in the direst
necessity. The treasury is doub tless
cramped, and the expenditures are exceed
ing the receipts, but the gold reserve
has not fallen of late, and better times
for the treasury are in sight, for the
sugar duty and the income tax will soon
become effective, and then the govern
ment receipts will, in all probability.
equal, if they do not exceed, it's expen-
ditures. Unless some condition should
arise that should cause a sudde and
serious decrease of the gold reserve, the
administration will not take the risk
of rendering itself more unpopular with
its party than it now is by issuing
bonds. Furthermore session of Con-
gress is not far off, and naturally the
disposition of the Secretary and the
President would be to consult Con-
gress on so important matter

to defeat the wishes of the people. But,
though theoretically 1T does have that
power, there is little likelihood of any
Congress exercising it, and though some
OF the tariff reformers may urge more
tariff tinkering at the next session, it
is not probable that there will be any of
any consequence. No Democratic mt m
Der of sound sense is likely to jeopardize
still farther his party's future by fur
Their affronting the people, and no DEM
ocrat of that kind can have any doubt
that further tariff tinkering by this
Congress would have that effect.
Chairman Faulkner, of the Democratic
Congressional Campaign Committee,
says that his ante-election prediction that
the Democrats would retain control of
the House, though by largely reduced
majority, was sincere. He says he had
not the slightest suspicion of the ava
lanche that was coming. Reports from
state committee chairmen had indicated
nothing of the kind. Chairman Wall,
an experienced politician, and thorouhly
conversant with Wisconsin politics, had
assured him that the Democrats would
carry Wisconsin and would not lose any
congressman in that state. William r.
Morrison of Illinois had also expressed to
him the conviction that Illinois was sure
to go Democratic, and that the next
senator from that state would be Dem
ocrat. No doubt what Chairman Faux
ner says is strictly true, though the elec-
tions in Maine and Vermont ought to
nave given him some warning. 1t
is u fact that landslides in politics are
as much of surprise when they come,
to the men who try to keep posted in
regard to the sentiment of the people as
to those who take no pains to inform
themselves. The change in 1890 was an
ticipated by nobody. The Republicans
were confident until the returns began
to come in that they had held their own.
This last landslide was not SO unexpect-
ed as that of 1890, because elections here
and there had given some premonitory
symptoms. Nevertheless its extent was
beyond what anybody, whether Republi-
can or Democrat, dreamed OF.

rying ont this original line of procedure
Broad had delayed until his time for ac-
tion had long expired. Accordingly, in
December, 1898, Ray located the property
and made application to purchase the
land. Broad contested the application
and
HEARING WAS HAD
in the local land Office last January and
February when Mr.. Crist and Judge
Laughlin appeared for Ray, Judge A. l.
Morrison for Broad, and 7. B. Catron as
witness for Broad. The hearing de-
veloped that Broad had controlled the
property directly and indirectly since
1881, and that more than 100000 tons OF
coal had been taken from the land with.
out any attempt to enter it in good faith
or any disposition to pay the govern
ment the $4,000 due for the property.
1t also appeared that Immediately
after Broad turned this property over to
Catron, in 1884, he became Catron's con.
tidential agent and the manager of Cat.
ron's TERRA Amarillo grant and the valu.
able lumber interests thereon. Broad
continues to hold that position to this
day, his location and holding of the
Monero property in 1892 in the interest
of
CATRoN AND HIS COMPANY
having been doubtless added to his other
duties as Catron's agent. s-
In view of these facts and the further
fact that the right of the Monero Coal &
Coke company to purchase, If it ever had
any, had long since lapsed, the local land
office decided in favor of Ray and against
". E. Broad alias the Monero Coal & Coke
company alias Thomas B. Catron; and the
general land office at Washington last
week affirmed this decision. The prac-
tlcal result of this decision is that the
Monero Coal d. Coke company, as far as
assets arc concerned, is now several de-
grees below zero; and that Thomas B.
Catron, the majority stockholder, presi-
dent, attorney and factotum of that com
pany, is out upward of $4,000 paid for
his stock in 1854.
In other words, in his attempt to avoid
and postpone the payment of $4,000 to
the government 7. B. Catron has dropped
in the neighborhood of $4,000; and
THE GOOSE THAT LAID THE GOLDEN EGG

piece of modern history involved in this
case, it should be said that the law gov
erning surveyed government land re,
quires the locator to enter his claim in
the local land Office within sixty days
after location; and within year after the
expiration of this sixty days he is to pay
for the land.
In 1881 W. Z. Broad and A. G. Hunt
located coal land claim at Monero in
Rio Arrlba county. The property was
considered by all who knew its situation
and character as very valuable and it wes
not long before the coal it contained was
being mined and used for the profit OF
its owners. In 1884 the Monero Coal 4
Coke company came into possession Of
the property; but Broad, who had ma
jority of the stock, still controlled the
policy of the company.
In 1884, Broad transferred to Thomas
B. Catron his stock in payment for debt
of upward of $4,000 which he owed Cat
ron. Catron, on taking hold of the prop
erty, held meeting of the stockholders
and
