There is in the treasury to-day
enough silver in the wayof seigniornge
to meet tho necessities of the govern
mcnt without borrowing single dol
lar. To prevent this comparatively
small addition to the circulating me
dunn OF the country and crafty tho
bond-holding classes it is proposed that
tho United States go in debt and pay
an interest charge OF sa5,OOO, 600. This
is the plain fact of the case, whatever
may be the law. With ample means in
the treasury to meet the deficit in cur
rent expenses, with an amount OF gold
to be obtained by the sale OF bonds, we
are imposing n new and wholly unnec-
essary debt upon the people.

DETROIT Aug. 10 "A small war was
precipitated between Mayor Pingree and
the board of fire commissioners over the
refusal of the latter to allow newspaper
reporter for The Tribune access to their
records. The reporter wished to examine
a certain record, but was refused access to
1t. On reporting this to the mayor, the
latter, accompanied by two reporters and
his private secretary, went to Commits
sioner Goodfellow and Secretary Tryon
and insisted that the record be shown.
After sharp exchange of compliments,
Goodfellow ordered some firemen to eject
the reporter from the office.
The mayor stepped in front of the re-
porter and declared they should do moth
ing of the sort. The hremen held the
mayor, however, while others elected the
reporter. The mayor says ne will take
steps to compel the board TO allow him his
rights under the charter which permits
the mayor and comptroller to inspect all
books. Mayor Pingree had warrants is
sued for the arrest of Commissioner Good
fellow, Secretary Tyron and James r.
Elliott, an attache of the fire board, for
conspiring To prevent his exercising his
prerogatives as mayor. He will also seek
to secure the removal of Commissioner

pRowNED WHILE HUNTING.

d ia ID
Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 2s,
Nicholas Eprenger il. went goose
hunting riding q horse. His dsstina-
ton was to be Horse Shoe Lake and
the bar in the Willamette near Ii,
about three miles west of Albany.
Wednesday night his dog returned
home, and not returning yesterday
the young mans father went up the
rivsr to hunt for him. His horse was
found near the lake, with the saddle
on but both stirrups gone, the bride
broken, the halter tied around the
horn Of the saddle and the horse well
covered with water and mud, indicat-
Ing that he had had q struggle In the
water. Mr.. Eprenger came to the city
lsst night and organized party which
left for the scene Of what was undoubt-
sdly fatal accident In some form.
Every thing indicated that young
Bprenger was drowned In the slough
leading into the Willamette. Tracks
were traced to the bar, where he tied
his horse and watched tor geese, then
returning towards home. A low
bridge without railing crossed the
slouQh, and is now three feet under
water. As II was dark, probably
shortly after 0 o'clock, he undoubtedly
missed the location and went off Into
the water. A searching party Of
about fifty men with five or six boats
and hooks, continued the search dur
ling this forenoon. AT about 1880
o'clock this afternoon the body was
found at the bottom OF the slough in
tan feet Of water about ten feet above
the bridge. II was brought TO the
home Of Mr.. Sprenger.
The deceased was y bright young
man Of splendid habits, perfect
gentleman, genial and upright. He
was . member Of the Presbyterian
church, and was universally beloved
by not only his fellow members and
parents, but BY all who knew him.
The community loses an exemplary
young man. He was about 10 years Of
age. Democrat.
