Distress at Scranton.

@A~hAN@~ ~S@NN-~NNNN
The miners at Scranton. Kss., are get.
ting q little impatient waiting for the
wave Of prosperity whose coming was
hsrsldsd last campaign. In fact the
low wages and lack OF work has become
q source Of distress to that whole com.
munity, and a mass meeting held there
a few days ago resulted in the following
communication to "His ExosllsnCy, Hon.
e. N. Morrill,, governor" The governor
has not yet announced any official action
in the matter. He will doubtless advise
the miners to live cheaper and be happy:
"DEAR SIR:-In pursuance with in
struCtions received at q public meeting
Of the citizens Of Scranton, Usage county,
Kansas, held for devising means whereby
the distress now existing in the COM
munity and surrounding district may be
made known and il possible AlleViRtsd,
we, the undersigned, appointed to confer
with the state executive, beg leave to
present to the careful and candid con.
sidsrRtion OF your excellency the causes
which render an appeal to your authority
matter Of urgent expediency.
"OWing to the long continued depres.
sion that has prevailed in their line Of
occupation the people Of Scranton have
been reduced to extreme poverty and
are confronted to-day with hunger and
probable starvation. Efforts to obtain
employment elsewhere prove fruitlsss,
while there is no demand for farm help.
The prospects for a resumption Of work
in che mines, upon which nearly the
whole population here depends, is not
to be expected for months to come yet
on the authority of the most reliable in
formation.
SIN the meantime hundreds Of fami
lies must soon suffer for the want Of the
necessities Of life, and intense distress
follow ss Q result, We, therefore, feel
constrained to appeal to your excellsncy,
confidently expecting that you will ex-
ercise in our behalf that patriotic gsner-
osity and solicituds bensftting the OIL
ciRl character Of q governor of q great
state. We would furthermore invite
your kind presence in our midst, De-
speaking in your favor q hearty and cor"
dial welcome, in order that you may bet

Of our situation.
"As we also desire the official co. oper-
alton Of the labor commissioner, we
would suggest that you request his COM
Pany when coming here, 50 he may
gather such statistics bearing on our
condition, as we viii have already pre-
pared to serve in this important matter.
Should you consider kindly our invita-
ton, we would respectfully suggest to

preparations to meet and inform you on
this occasion. Respectfully,

"stOp Thief"

stop Thief"
The tabled story Of "stop thief" was
illustrsted'st the state house last week.
The governor sent Oscar Wilde Ohal-
linor, state accountant, over to Bank
Commissioners Breidenthal's Office, under
instructions to check up the accounts of
that Office and report the result st once.
After working day or two the &C
countant came back and reported every"
thing al right except that the bank
commissioners had not turned over to
the state treasurer, as the law required,
all the fees collected for the examination
Of banks. The accountant estimated
the amount due the state at about
S1,2O5.
Here was an excellent chance for the
governor to turn public attention from
his own and his fellow redeemers' mis-
conduct, 30 he forthwith sent for BCei-
dsnthsl and confronted him with the
''swful truth" The attorney general
had found that the law requires these
fees to be turned into the state treasury
'immedistely."
Mr.. BEeidenthsl explained that he had
not seriously considered the matter as
to when the money should be paid in;
that he usually paid it whenever he
made settlements with his two deputies,
Waterman and Osborne, who collect the
fees; that the deputies had been very
busy examining banks for some weeks,
during which time no settlements had
bean made, and furthermore, since the
governor had stopped the payment Of
salaries and expense to the bank COM
missioner's Office, he had permitted the
deputies to pay their expenses out Of
their OOlleOtions Ali money collected,
except that used for expenses, was in
BreidenthRPs hands. he was not only
ready to pay that in, but would make
good everything collected, and take
chances Of himself and deputies getting
pay for their work and their expenses,
On this suggestion the governor de-
manded that Rll the money be paid in
and 3 check was given the treasurer for
the amount. The state now owes the
bank commissioner and his assistants
almost as much as the amount over
which the noise was made.
The dsspiCsble character OF Governor
Morrill, was exhibited in the above in
oident. Being q bank man he must
know that BreidsnthRl is recognized as
one Of the most efficient bank commits
sioners in the United States He knows
also that Mr.. BreidenthRl has made the
Office q source Of great revenue to the
state at the same time that he has at-
tended diligently to his business and
prevented many a bank failure by
doing 80.

house, OK Lieutenant Governor Felt
publishes the following in the Atchison
Champion, Of May 8:
"The story Of the insult to the inno-
cent girl was told TO the editor Of the
Champion by Governor Morrill, during
the session of the legislature, and, at
his request, was kept out Of print, with
the understanding that the officer would
be asked to resign, and that il he failed
to do that then proceedings would be
commenced according to law. The story
90 told to the editor of the Champion
differed in soma minor details from the
version printed in the HiRwRths World.
The governor, who was thoroughly in
dignsnt and fully aroused to the neces-
slty of immediate action, stated that the
state treasurer had secured q clerkship
for young lady, (as we recollect it she
was from Russell county,, who upon her
appointment, went to the treasury to
tender her thanks for the kindness. She
was told that mere thanks did not pay
for such things. She said she had no
money till she earned it. The brutal
reply was to this effect: (We do not at
tempt to quote the exact langusge.)
Il do not want money, but have a room
down the street; you can come and stay
with me occasionally
"The young lady, the governor said,
was in every way respectable and he
seemed in humor to take the advice
volunteered to him to 60 to that Office
and take that official by the nape Of his
neck and seat Of his brseChes and hurl
him out Of the state house.
"The Champion kept its word.With the
governor not to publish the scandal as
it understood steps were to be taken to
GUST him from Office. Now that the matter
has become public property, the Cham
pion no longer regards it an official CO.
cret and tells this much OF the story.
We think now as We thought then, that
Governor Morrill, should have put that
officer out of the state house, as he de-
served no further recognition from the
people Of Kansas, We do not intend
this as any criticism upon Governor
Morrill,, for we know that he loatheB the
conduct Of the treasurer, and was only
prevented from immediate action by
what he deemed to be amply Buficient
reason.
Here is q choice bit Of sarcasm from
the ex-lisutensnt governors pen:
"The talk about Rrrssting GovernorMor-
rill for misappropristion Of public funds
doubtless arises from Populist spleen.
The charge is that Governor Morrill, for
q month before his inauguration used a
suite Of rooms in the Columbian building
at Topeka and employed clerks to look
after his correspondence, and help along
in the details Of the duties to dsvolve
upon him later on, and that he drew
from the treasury money to pay these
clerks for the month before he became
governor. The story is absurd. He is q
banker, and would not pay for services
OF q bank officer q month before he be-
gan work IN the bank. The story looks
like q very Rudacious lie upon its face.
Governor Morrill, is q man OF practical
business experience, and untainted per-
sonsl integrity. The story started by his
enemies accuses him Of possessing
neither sense nor honor. The story is

 FOR HIS THEFT.
 NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 23.-Albert Chap man, the young man who Was charged with having robbed Sandow, the strong man, of a lot of jewelry and other articles, valued at over S3000, while serving the lat ter in the capacity of valet, was this morn- ing discharged from custody by Recorder Whitaker. The strong man was not in court and there was not sufficient testi- mony adduced at the trial on which to base a prosecution. Therefore the accused was discharged. He has been lying in jail for several months. The case has been called on many occasions, but each time the sstrong man' failed to present himself at court and the matter was continued. Tel egrams were sent to Sandow, but he re- piled that it was impossible for him tu come to the city to prosecute his dish onest valet. ,.
 Finally Judge Whitaker, tiring of con tinuing the case, determined to put Chap man on trial, even though the complainant was not present.
