Kinley's militia engaged in suppressing
riots. Even in the Golden State she had
found men out of work and tramps in
plenty. What was it caused all this havoc?
The gold standard, the manipulation Of
the currency by the Wall-street bankers
and the British bankers.
1t was Thomas Jefferson, Robert Morris
and Alexander Hamilton who founded our
monetary system after the liberty and in
dependence of the States had been estab-
lished. 1t was their aim to give the Ma
ton a financial policy that would last for
all time; that should be as firm and as last
ing as the constitution itself. They laid
down the gold and silver standard, and not
till an unconstitutional act was passed by
Congress was the Nation in danger from
the money powers.
Peter Cooper said that all the financial
laws were being made for the interests of

Ttco Companies of the Sfrth to Occupy
GoOd,Cater GrOre.
STOCKTON, CAL, Aug. 20.-It has been
decided by companies A and B of the
Sixth regiment to establish the camp of
instruction which the guardsmen have
been talking about for some time. Good
water Grove has been selected as the place
for the camp, and it has been decided to
name the camp in honor of Colonel Nunan
of the Sixth Regiment.
The companies will march from their
armory to the car house on California
street on Saturday evening at O clock
from which place they will be taken to the
grove in cars. The camp will be immedi-
ately formed and guard placed on duty.
The place selected will be lighted with
electric lights, so that drills may take
place in the evening. On Sunday after
noon the battalion will be reviewed by
Colonel Nunan, and on the following Sun
day Adiutant-G General Barratt and Briga-
died General Muller and staff are expected
to visit the camp. An invitation will be
extended to Governor Budd and staff. but
it is not thought the Chief Executive will
be we'll enough to accept. After the drills
each night the Sixth Regiment band will
furnish music for dancing.
Captain Johnson of Company A said this
morning that great preparations were in
progress to make this the best of all en-
campments for years. The bluecoats will
do considerable entertaining, and intend
to fix the camp up accordingly. There will
be $50 incandescent lights among the tents,
and from tent to tent will be swung strings
of Japanese lanterns. About 500 of these
will be used in decorating.

McKENNA NOT CONCERNED
The Ransom Decision Not
Applicable to the United
States Circuit Judge.
His Appointment Was Made In the
Fifty-Second Congress to Fill
Judge SaWyer's Place.

The ruling of the United States Attor-
ney-General in the matter of the position
of ex-senator Ransom as Minister to
Mexico has no effect on Circuit Judge Nc
Kennas position on the bench of the Cir
cult Court of Appeals. That court was
created, it is true, in the Fifty-first Con-
gress under an act approved March 8, 1891,
and there is constitutional provision in
section 6, article /, which reads:
No Senator or Representative shall, during
the time for which he was elected, be appointed
to any civil office under the authority OF the
United States which shall have been created or
the emoluments whereof shall have been in
creased during such time, etc.
But this has nothing whatever to do
with Judge McKenna, and whatever fears
NAV have been entertained by attorneys or
others are wholly without foundation.
When asked yesterday how this law and
the decision of the Acknowledgement
would affect him Judge McKenna said !:
'It does not affect me at all. There ap-
pears to be an absolute Misrepresentation
of the Circuit Court to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Judge Sawyer. He
was United States Circuit Judge, filling
the office long before l was in Congress.
There was no Judge OF the United Slater
Circuit Court of Appeals. The Circuit
Judges, with an Associate Justice of the
United States Supreme Court from that
bench, or if the Circuit Judges should be
disqualified, the District Judges, shall act.
$50, the office I occupy was not created
in the Fifty-frst Congress, though the
Court of Appeals was. But even had such
Office been created during the Fifty-first
Congress it could not affect me, because
was not appointed till the time of the
Fifty-second Congress-after the Fifty-frst
was thing of the past So, in every aspect
from which it can be viewed the matter of
this ruling of the Attorney-General in the
Ransom case affecting my position is en-
tirelv without foundation"

P hi||ips Brooks

Says: ITO do splendid thing is
simply to do common thing bet
ter than others do it," That is lust
what we are doing. We are making
just as good picture frames at a
moderate price as can be made any
where. We give employment to
over 100 sober, industrious hands
in the making of frames and mold
ings alone, which shows that the
people are willing to patronize
home industry. providing that
home factories give as good an arti-
Gle at as low price as can be OBJ
tanned elsewhere. Six years ago,
when our factory was in its infancy,
thlrty-one travelling statesmen, rep
resenting thirty-one picture-frame
molding factories in the Eastern
States. arrived in this city Zone
each day. during the month of
January. During January OF 1895
only three came. For the THINK
Err. comment is unnecessary.
Our factory is equipped with all
the best and latest machinery and
can turn out molding for the mil
lion just as good in quality and
lower in price than it can be landed
from factories on the other side.
Our pine lumber is cut to size and
to order in the mountains, and our
plain and quarter-sawed oaks come
in carload lots from the mills in the
woods where the oak tree grows.
In buying of US you not only give
employment to large number of
your own people. but you get every
thing at first hands and at lowest
prices.
The things we make besides mold
ings for picture frames are room
holdings, mirror frames, drawing
boards, wood easels, artists stretch
ers, palettes, I squares, pine back
ing, plain and ornamented cornice-
poles, screens, hat racks, towel
racks and swinging mirrors.
Our factory is located at 10 to
100 Minna street, and our Store and
Salesrooms are located at TAI. 743,

Bartine's Views.

Congressman HI. F. Bartine arrived in
the City yesterday from Salt Lake to attend
the Bimetallic Convention. Up to within
four months ago Mr.. Bartine was resi-
dent of Nevada, where the battle began,
but of late he has been using his forcible
arguments for free coinage in Utah. Mr..
Bartine says:
1.-The people there are beginning to see
light alb cad, and the best supporters we
have in advancing the silver cause are mon
who understand it. We have organized a
bimetallic league there, and when the
time comes we will send silver orators all
over the United States, and particularly
into the sections where the voters do not
understand the Importance of the issue.
All the people need is education in the
matter, and that is probably the best way to
spread it. Thousands of voters are Just in
that condition where they can be won over
to the silver cause if it is put to them
squarely and by men who have investigated
and comprehend it in all its details and side
issues. There are great many arguments
to answer, and one must be Informed to
state it clearly. Utah expects to do her
share in righting the wrong of 1873, and
with that end in view we are marshaling
all the forces at our command"

HE Contract all Right.

The meeting of the attorneys who
were recently selected from the Bar
Association Of Douglas County to in
vestlgate the Altamonte Water Powers
contract with the city and look to Supe-
rIor's interest in general in the matter,

ice OF +. A. Ross. Those present were
Judge Clouge, II. II. Grace, II. :. But
Ter, f. \. Ross, Comptroller Ticknor
and Attorney d. q. cash of Duluth,
representing the Water Power Co.
1t was resolved that the committee
was not opposed to the Altamonte
scheme; that it did not think that the
city of Superior ought to make a con-
tract in reference to the same but if
such action hal already been taken
that there should be some additional
provisions,
The contract was thereupon produced
and few new features were added, in
which the AItamonte's attorney CON
CURED. The principal addition was
that the company shall furnish water
.
same basis as Duluth.
Mr. Grace thought the contract was all
right from a legal point. He argued
that the act Of the city in permitting the
company to transmit power through
the street was a sufficient consideration
to warrant the contract and that the
company could he enioined by the city
under its provisions if it did not live up
to them.
Representative IIaugcn was wired to
the effect that the city was not opposed
to the passage of the AItamonte's bill
and that he could act upon his own
judgment. The measure ran be killed
in the senate If it shall be deemed nee
essary.
