ate when Mr.. Hill lsbored in defense Of
the policy OF his personal enemy, Grover
Cleveland. During Mr.. Hill's speech,
Senator Hoar sided over and Whispered
point to strengthen the New York
senator's position. Mr.. WolcOtt insisted
upon having the benefit of Mr.. Hoar's
whisper, whereupon Mr.. Hill explained
that "ths senator from Massachusetts,
suggested that in 1869 the question as
to how the bonds Of the country were to
be paid was determined by joint reso-
luton of congress-" Senator Hoar's
action was typical Of the position Of re-
publicsnism on the gold standard; he
was willing to slip across the senate

to strengthen the outspOken and
bolder position of democracy, but
he waited to be Cornered and
smoked out before openly conHessing
championship Of the Cleveland policy.
What further proof of the financial part

need? Reed and Cleveland in the house,

the United States the tool, the agent and
the hired spy of British capitalism.
With awful sudacity, and with titanic
insolsnce President Cleveland has within
the past fortnight held conference with
the enemies OF this nation. He has not
only Rcceded to their dictstion but with
stupendous effrontery has sent his sub
traitor Carlisle into the very citadel Of
the nation, into the national house Of
legislation with treason black copy OF
the terms of surrender which the British
foe exscted. o, American patriots, has
every drop of the red blood Of '76 paled,
and washed out to thin water under the
poisonous dripping from the upas tree Of
partyismP How like fierce wild beasts
you would pursue this traitor Cleveland
were he a spy from the snemY's soldier
camp. But just because the treason is
political the people bend the knee and
bow the head in ignorant, helpless super
stition and lot our great republic be
delivered soul and body into the posses
sion Of the enemy.
What ought to be done with the
traitor ClevelandY Why he should be
impesched and dismissed forever to
ex patriotism and to the awful doom OF
q disfrsnchissd, execrated foe to the re-
public. He ought neither to be mobbed,
shot or hanged. It never does any good
to take life. Human beings have no
right to take life. Besides hanging is
too good for Cleveland.
On the 18th of this month the vital
points OF the money question were aired
as never before in the lower house OF
congress. Every word Of those debates
should be read by every voter in the
land, and no man who had not read and
did not understand should be eligible TO
vote for member of congress or president
Of the United States in 1896. On that
memorable occasion the mask was COM
plstely stripped not only from the hide
ous face Of Grover Cleveland, but from
the hypocriticsl republicans who seek to
diguise themselves behind the thin pre-
tense of "bimetslism" the while their
every vote drives another golden nail in
the coffin Of silver. On that crucial day
great Tom Reeds financial soul shrank
to gold bug proportions and the physlc-
ally big fellow presented the pitiabls
spectacle Of forced surrender to Grover
CleVelRnd's terms Of oRpitulstion to
Rothschild, Morgan & Co. Like an
overgrown school boy caught in a mis-
deed the giant from Maine stood dog
gedly at bay and attempted to defend
his disgrace. Forced to show his hand
Tom Reed was compelled to play to the
gold gamblers game. If the people are
wiss in '96 they will remember February
1895, and Mr.. T. Rsed Of Maine will
never hold receptions at the White
House.
Mr.. Cannon of Illinois told straight
truth during the debate when he said:
IF it we're q republican secretary Of the
treasury who had made such a contract
with the bankers for the sale Of bonds
this democratic house would have i'm
peached him" To which patriotic senti-
ment Mr.. Snodgrass shouted out: "And
ought TO-" Why in the name Of patriot
ism IL Csrllsle's bargain with British
bankers would be- impeachRble we're he

FOUR COMPUTATIONS.
Probably the Last That Governor
Markham WIN Grant.

Probably the Last That Governor
Markham VIII Grant.
Governor Markham has commuted the
sentence of William Phelps, who was
sentenced from Tulare County to life inn
prisonment for murder in the first degree
in October, 1881, to twenty-one and
half years.
From careful perusal of the testimony
the Governor finds that Phelps had been
on protracted spree aud was suffering
from the effects OF it. On arriving at the
camp where he and his companions were
cutting wood a hallucinatlon possessed
him that they were trying TO poison hlm,
and selzing shotgun he killed one of
them.
The elements of murder, in the first de-
gree were wanting and. as stated by
many leading officials and citizens, he
should have been convicted of no higher
crime than manslaughter, The punish
ment for which does not exceed ten
years. He has served a sentence equal
to twenty-one years and the State Prison
Directors have recommended com uta-
ton to twenty-one and half years,
which is granted.
GREENE COMMITTED.
The sentence of Nathaniel Greene. sem
fenced in San Francisco in December,
1892, for two consecutive terms OF five
years for embezZlenent, is committed to
two and half years, the Board of State
Prison Directors and the Supreme Court
having unanimously recommended the
communication.
TOO DRUNK TO KNOW.
The sentence of Edward Langton, sem
fenced in February, 1855. from Sierra
County for thirty-two years tor murder
IN the second degree, to sixteen years.
The evidence showed that the fatal shot
was not fired with the intention of hit
ting any one, and that LangtOn was SO
drunk that he did not know till the next
day the consequences OF his act.
DID NOT INTEND MURDER.
The twenty-five-year sentence of c. Z.
Black burn, convicted in Lake County in
March, 1891, of murder in the second de-
gree, is commuted TO ten years.
Black burn went to a notorious place,
known as the Campers Resort, with
masked party who intended to tar and
feather a man named Bennett. Bennett
was not found and the party was about
TO retire, when a shot was fired from the
house, killing one of the mask ed men
named McGulre. Another of the mask ed
men fired a shot at the house, which
killed the landlady, Mrs. Richie.
Black burn had gone unarmed and not
masked, simply to look at the tarring
and feathering, and his only crime seems
to have been that he was present for an
unlawful purpose. His crime could not
be considered more than manslaug hter.
punishable with ten years imprison-
ment.
The Governor has been investigating
these cases for several months past Sift-
ing the evidence carefully before action.
They will be the last acted upon by him,
IN all probability.

The examination Of All Hing, who at
