Republicans. The members of the
Commission used to get $5, 900 year,
but Congress cut down that amount
materially and last session an effort
was made to wipe out the Commission
by leaving it's members without any
appropriation. 1t was claimed that
under the operations OF the Edmunds =
Tucker act the Mormuns had aban-
doned poiygamy in good faith and there
was really no need of the Commission.
This argument did not prevail. Pres
ident Clevelands purpose in calling
for the resignation of the present mem
bers is said to be to Increase the
efficiency OF the commission. 1t is rep
resented that there are conflicting in
terests among its members and that
good government will be served by O
new deal When the Democrats in
Congress come to admit Utah as a
state the Commission will die a natural
death.
WASHINGTON special The annual
rumor that Chief Justice Fuller in.
tends to resign is out. IL usually fol-
lows the new year closely. The al
legged ground is Mr. Fuller's desire to
return to his private practice because
the compensation OF the Supreme Court
is SO much below that OF q practitioner.
The Chief Justice in politics is a pretty
good Democrat, and ii he were intend
ing to retire he would undoubtedly do
SO during President Cleveland's ad-
ministration. Then Secretary Carlisle
could be appointed to succeed him.
Carlislc's friends were greatly disap-
pointed that President Cleveland failed
to nominate him to the bench during
his previous administration. There is
no reason to think that he will bect me
Chief Justice now, because there is no
ground for the report that Chief JUS
tice Fuller Is going to resign.

Coast Rivers Are OverflOwinx.

TACOMA, WASH, special: The heavy
rain storms the past two days have
filled every river between the Cascade
Mountains and the Pacific Ocean from
British Columbia to the California
line bank full. Several, including the
Chehalis River, are overflowing. The
latter flows through the lowlands near
its mouth. These are overhowed and
raDchers are compelled to seek the
highlands. Four bridges were washed
away on the, south bend branch of the
Northern Pacific and thousand feet
OF track washed out, which large
force is repairing. Several washonts
occurred on Gray's Harbor branch. No
trouble has occurred on the main line,
on which q large sum has been spent
to protect it Fl, m winter storms. En-
gineer A. f. Moore was killed near
Chehalis. His engine, pulling re-
pair train, ran into a new washout and
was Oveoturned down an embankment,
crushing him. The Great Northern

= LONDON special: The English High
Temple of Justice witnessed the other
day the edifying spectacle of two
judges of the Court Of Appeals being
driven from the bench by the tongue
of an angry woman. The Court House
has been haunted for months by Mrs.
Thompson, a half crank who has real
or imaginary grievance. 1t is a week
ly occurrence for her to be elected
from one court or another. She visit
ed the Court of Appeals to lodge an in-
formal personal protest, and as an in
cldent to the process she denounced
Lord Justice Lopes, who sat on the
bench, as an old villain. Timid per-
sons in court looked for the fall of a
thunderbolt, but nothing happened, or
the thing that did happen was not
what was expected. The terrified
judges, Lord Justice Davey being the
other, left the bench, and Mrs. Thomp-
son remained in triumphant possession
OF one OF the highest courts in the
realm.

NEW YORK special: Hundreds OF
actors in New York are on the verge
Of starvation and they are still coming
to this city from all parts of the coun-
try. There is little hope for them ia
obtain work in their profession here.
Last week Edward Harrigan dis
charged twenty-five members of his
company in order to cut down expenses
and many of them had been with him
for years. Many other managers are
following his example. The theater
business, they say, Is duller than it has
been for years. Vigorous efforts, how
ever, are being made to relieve the
wants OF the actors coming, but these
efforts are meager compared with the
need. Scores of needy actors crowd
around the stage doors OF the New
York theaters every night after the
performance trying to borrow money.
Those who have engagements are be-
sieged by those who are unfortunate
enough to be out Of work.

For the Democratic blunders
Make the poor old eagle scream
Life Is real. Life is earnest!
And the grave 10 not its goal;
Empty shop and smokeless furnace

Not enjoyment. and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
Without funds, and cannot borrow
Good Ole DEMOCRATIC sway
Art is long and Time Is fieeting.
And our hearts, though stout and brave
Are like Hopkins boys, "repeating,"
johnnie Patrick's scalp to save.
In the worlds broad field OF battle,
In the bivouac of life,
be no longer Growers cattle!
No longer let despair be rife!
Trust no future howe'er pleasant!
Let the dead past bury Its dead.
Cleveland's party holds the present.
Almost maaes us sick abed.
Lives OF great men all remind US,
We can make our lives sublime,
And departing leave behind us,
Footprints on old Growers spina

an exciting incident outside of tho
United States Courtroom, where Clyde
MattOx, the noted Oklahoma killer, is
on trial for murder. Deputy United

just left the witness stand where he had
given some damaging evidence against
Mattox, when he was accosted by q
girl named Annie Edwards of this city,
who launched shower of abusive
epithets him, and then diving into her

occurrence, ordered her before him.

Walker the judge sent her off to Jail,

SOUTHERN SUMMARY.

ATLANTA, Ca, special: The trial
of Lewis Redwine has begun in the
United States Court. Kedwine is
charged with embezzling 100000 of
the money of the Gate City National
Bank. That embezzlement wrecked

it was that act of Redwine that sent
Cobb jackson to suicides grave.
Redwine was Il leader in club and So
cial life, was highly respected in bank
ing and business circles, and was con-
sidered the most fortunate man of his
years in Atlanta bt tsiness life. OF his
close friends Tom Cobb Jackson was
the most prominent. One very notable
feature of the trial is the attitude of
Capt. Jackson, father of the dead bov.
He is leading counsel for the prose-
cution and has undertaken the case
with the idea OF ferreting it to the
bottom and letting the blame fall
where 1t belongs. There has been an
effort to make it appear that jackson
led Redwine to ere. Capt. jackson
does not believe that, ana has entered
heart and soul into the case to bring
out all the facts.
