NEBRAsKa's BIG DEBT
at tho Bottom of q Scandal at
Lincoln.

OMAHA, Neb., Dec 81 In an edito-
rial, replying to correspondents in
curry. the Bee says: From the best
information at our command. the COM
paint as regards the heavy deposits of
state funds in Omaha banks Is ground
less. Quite the contrary is true.
The leading bankers of Omaha as
sert that they have not been
favored. We are, however, convinced
that the state finances are in very de-
plorable condition. More than month
ago the representative of the Bee at the
disclosures might be expected any day
relative TO the state treasury. Au-
ditor Moore had computation that
the amount of general fund war
rants outstanding exceeds $1,000,000.
There is said TO be discrepancy of
over S220,000 between the auditors
books and those of the treasurer. After
spending more than two weeks in
checking up the discrepancy between
the books of the treasurer and auditor,
although the auditor has had his fig
ures fully verified, the books fall to
balance by about $3.50
This is not the worst feature of the
situation. Although the state is now
paying over $4,000 a year interest on
outstanding warrants, the state is not
getting penny of interest on nearly a
million OF dollars, which the state
treasurer has placed OH deposit
in the banks. This means that the state
is paying out $4,000 year interest
when its warrants could have been re-
deemed and the state is losing from
S25. 900 to $4,000 a year interest on
funds fol- which responsible banks were
ready TO give the very best of bonds un-
der the act of 1891.
"A The tangle in the state treasury indi-
Gates that there is something wrong in
the methods of accounting. The enor-
NOUS volume of outstanding warrants
indicates the most reckless tinancering.
to Auditor Moore, the state
debt now exceeds $1,000, 900, when it is
limited by the constitution TO $500, 900,
and the debt is still increasing at the
rate of $4,000 month. This slate of
affairs demands immediate attention.

LOWER wAGEs,I LOWER RENTS
Workingmen Want the Two to
Go Hand in Hand.

PITTSBURG, Dec. 3l.-The mill men
at the Carnegie works, Beaver Falls,
have inaugurated movement which
will probably be joined by all the wage
earners of that city and vicinity
to secure general reduction Of
rents. The men who have recently
been reduced in wages insist that 1t is
impossible to continue paying high
rents on low wages, and that the cut
in rents must correspond with the cut
in their earnings. On The same lines
an effort will be made to secure
something in the shape of conces-
Slons i'll prices from the leading mer-
camille establishments, including the
butchers. bakers, grocers, etc. A similar
movement has been started among the
business men and workingmen at Nc
Kecsport, and during the week de-
mand Will be made on the landlords for
reduced rents.
MoNoNGAHELA, Pa, Dec. 31.-The
opening of the New Year Will see most
of the mines in the lower pools paying
215 cents for digging. In the fourth
pool the recognized rate in most cases
is two cents, although some OF the
mines are paying less. In the Eliza
beth neighborhood the Walton COM
pany closed down pending settle
ment of the rate question, but on the
whole the outlook for the dlggerS is
vastly better than seemed possible two
months ago. The men are showing
wonderful unaninity of sentiment on
the necessity for organization now while,

Mrs. Lease says she proposes to saw

Mrs Laura Johns is said to have
smiled sweetly when she heard the
news. If she refrained from saying II

1t appears that Gov. Lewelling re.
moved Mrs. Lease from the Kansas
state board of charities ''in the interest
of good government" In the further
interest of good government let Gov.
Lewelling resign.-Chicago Tribune.
The stand taken by Mrs. Lease as a
member of the state board OF charities
Is also consistent. She refused to do the
governors bidding and remove super
intendent from the deaf and dumb
asylum simply to make room for another
man TO whom the governor owed DO
litical debt.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
1t is pitifrl, but it cannot be helped.
We hope Mrs. Lease will take the les
son to heart. If she had but served her
husbands customers to soda water and

has displayed in the service of the un-
grateful Lewelling she would not now
be so unhappy.-Chicago Evening Post.
And now the fact that Mrs. Lease has
been removed from the board threatens

1T WAS MERELY A GAMBLE:
Sensational Developments in the
Celebrated BIythe Case. =:

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 3l.-The long
contest over 100000 or 100000 left
by the late Thomas n. Blythe
has developed another promising sen :
sation. Late Saturday afternoon there.
was filed before the state supreme
court notice of a motion to postpone
hearing before that tribunal of the
appeal from Superior Judge Coffey's
decision declaring that Florence Blythe
is heir to Blythe's millions. Sensational
affidavits accompanied the notice.
In brief the affidavits, which
were filed by attorneys for claim
ants opposing Florence Blythe, the
ilIegitimate daughter. charge that the
girls attorney, Attorney General w. Fl.
H. Hart, made over to George E. Bates
contingent interest in tine Blythe es-
tate amounting to 100000 simply be-
because Bates was a brother-in.law
of Chief Justice Beatty, and
might influence that juIist in
rendering a decision favorable
to Harris client. Several months ago,
however, Chief Justice Beatty learned
of his relatives interests in the estate.
and publicly announced that lie was
disqualified from participating in the
case, though he then gave no rea-
son. Chief Justice Beatty ahas since
said in an interview that his knowl-
edge of the relatives interest
prompted HIM so to act. The attorneys
of Florence Blythe declare that the new
charges were simply made 10 gain tine
and postpone the hearing. Their ex-
PLANTATION of the Bates interest
is that early in 1890, before
Judge Coffey's decision in the
girls favor, and before Chief
Justice Beatty's last nomination to the
office which he now holds, Bates ad-
yanced $4,000 to Attorney General Hart
to be used in the interests of the girl.
For this loan he was to receive
10 per cent of Gen. Harris entire
fee, which was to be ~ per cent of the
entire estate if he won the case. Bates
declared it was simply gamble bv
which he riSked $1,000 on the possibility
of receiving return of probably $50

A CRUSH IN NEW YORK.
Immense Throng Sees the Old

NEW YORK, jan 1.-There was a
larger crowd than usual to hear the
chimes of Trinity church, which
did not toning light OIL account
of DR.. DiX's order to the con-
trary. The noise he hoped to
avert was trebly emphasized. Hereto
fore the horns were many, but tonight to
find an individual without the horn was
to note policeman or reporter, and
the women seemed to have better lungs
than the men. The noise was deafen-
ing, and but for the cable cars
the crush would have been dam
gerous-but the clang, clang of the
bells cleared away what the police
could not. Wall street was crowded
down to Broad, and it was impossible.
so dense was the throng. Rector street
and New Church street were also
packed, and these latter. away from the
worst of tie noise, were disappointed
when II o'clock passed and no bells
welcomed the new year. Then drum
corps was heard, and from all sides
there was rush to see what company
had turned out, and in the rush the old
year went into the past, and 1894 CON-
menced before even those waiting for It
were aware of its advent.

IT Is SURELY COMING.
The Question Is: "Are You Pre-

able Advice is Volunteered.


An epidemic OF tho grip is certain 10 be
general throughout America in very short
time. Already many cases have been OBJ
served by physicians in New York city, Gs
well as in other cities of the land Dr. Cyrus
Edison, of the New York Board Of Health,
says that the disease will manifest its pres
cnce generally in the very near future and
that it IS already here more than is generally
realized. He said:
II think we will have grip epidemic soon
and there ire indications that il will Lef- a
long siege. While / do not want TO create q
scare, would warn people 70 beware of it
and 10 use ali the precautions possible Ex-
penence has shown that chrelessuess in
habits and irregular hours render the system
too weak 10 stand so violent disease. Grip
finds easy victims in old people and in de-
bilitated persons.
There is but one thing for any man. woman
or child to do when the slightest symptom of
grip appears and that is to counterect it at
once. II you feel tired. have pains in the
muscles and bones have dull headache, a
bad taste in the mouth. are feverish. have no
ambition or appetite, you must il you desire
to escape the grip. at once take good pure
sti.Dulant. This alone can counteract the
coming on of grip. kill the microbes Of the
disease and restore you to health. While
there are many so-called stimulants. there ia
but one which is pure, scientific aud recon-
mended By physicians universally. This is
Dufys Pure Malt Whiskey. Do not be de-
ceived by any druggist or grocer who may
try 10 induce you TO take something else.

can make more money on cheaper and in
