Friends of Senator Blackburn, in
Washing ton say that Mr.. Clevelands
action II appointing man named Jop
lin to succeed Mrs. Helm as postmaster
at Elizabethtown, Kentucky, after the
senate had refused to act upon ;he nom-
nation of Joplin to that office, Will
greatly aid Senator Blackburn in his
campaign for re election to the senate.
Mrs. Helm is the youngest sister OF Mrs
Abraham Lincoln and the widow OF
Confederate brigadier who died IN battle
and il was at the request Of ex-Confed-
crate soldiers in Kentucky that Senator
Blackburn expeused Mrs. Helms cause
and succeeded in preventing action up
on Joplin's nomination. Mr.. Cleveland
is opposed to the reelection OF Senator
Blackburn on account of his views on
the silver question.
Mr.. Cleveland now regrets that ms
friends arranged to have him invited to
Chicago to make 6 Did speech IN order
TO counteract the silver element, which
seems to be in fair way to get control
of the democratic party IN this stat"
The principal cause of his regret is that
it has been represented to HIM that if he
makes that gold speech it will result IN
an open rupture between himself and
Vice President Stevenson, who Is stated
to be the beneficiary of the democratic
silver convention which has been called
to meet in that state In June. The OIL
cial relations between Mr. Cleveland and
Mr.. Stevenson have been strained for
long time, but the former is not yet
ready for an en- ire break in those rela-
tions. 1t is regarded as certain that the
Illinois democrats will at that cCnven-
ton declare in favor of free silver, re.
CARELESS OF any thing that Mr.. Cleveland
may say; hence his regret that anything
should have been said about his making
a gold speech in the state. He is just
human enough not to wish to put him
self in a position to get knocked down
bv the Illinois democrats.
Senator Dubois, of Idaho, who ie now
in Washington, has es all the world
knows, some very positive views on the
subject of the restoration of silver as a
monev metal. He says "In my judg-
ment the outlook for silver is bright.
A great majority Of the voters want 1t
sestorea, ard they will find way to Sc
cure what they want. They will not be
fooled my more with meaningless reso-
buttons In national platforms or by pol
iticians who talk one way and vote an
other" Senator Dubois believes the
restoration of silver will be the work Of
the republican party.

A SPOKANE by, who had been given

A SPOKANE by, who had been given
every opportunity to make an honorable
and res pected citizen of himself, was a
few DAYS ago arrested in California for
holdiag-up a station agent, the young
mans companion in crime being shot
dead. The Spokane friends of the boy
are now making the statement that
there WIS no criminal intention In the
act, and that the young man did not
know the full import or crimlnality of
the deed at the time, Such pleas as
this are all wrong, for if young Bump,
the boy arrested, is really as "bright
and intelligent" as his friends say, it is
more insult than justification to say
that he bad no conception of the enor-
nifty of his act, Had he been unknown
and friendless re would have been a
hardened criminal" and the young
man of education and bright prospects"
who falls by the way side is entitled to
no more leniencv than the one who
lacked those advantages. Bumps friends
say that he is 80 penitent," and should
be dealt with lightly. OF course he is
penitent; but had he successfully evaded
tie officers would he have been so pen
itent? We are sorry for Bumps widowed
mother, but believe that the culprit
should be given the full punishment
allowed by law, as his education and
social connections should have served as
Rn anchor to have kept him off the rocks
instead of palliating his criminal mis-
deeds. Justice should be melted out
equally 10 the polished high school
graduate am - the yerlest hobo. There
should be no dls,action in favor Of the
former.

WASHINGTON CITY NEWS.
Special Correspondence.


WASHINGTON, April II, 1895.
1t has been difficult to collect money
from the government ever since the
Cleveland administration came into pow
or, and it is gong to be more difficult
than ever. 1t has been the policy of t, o
treasury to raise all sorts of obstacles to
defer payment on government vouchers
of all sorts. 1t was this policy that
caused Senator German to say on the
floor of the senate that if all proper de-
mands on the government were paid
there would be deficit of not less than
500, 100000. At a cabinet meeting
held after the decision of the supreme
court, in I'll Q income AK cases, was fully
dgested it was decided that the calling
of an extra session of congress should
be avoided, if possible; and the posfibil-
ity Of keeping money in the treasury by
delaying payments upon appropriations
made by congress was considered. 1t is
not certain even then that congress will
not have TO be called together.
That the exemption of incomes from
rents and state and municipal bonds will
cut off at least one half of the amount
that would have been received from the
income tax is admitted by everybody
that knows anything about the subject.
And not few believe that the advice of
eminent lawyers, based upon the failure
of the supreme court to declare the law
either constitutional or unconstitutional,
will result in the failure of thousands to
pay the tax. Men who were loud in
their praises of the tax are nJw bitterly
opposed to it, because of the exemptions
made by the court. They say that
these exemptions will defeat the prin-
cipal object of those who advocated an
income tax-the compelling Of alien
landlords to bear fair share in sup
porting the government-and throw the
principal burden of the tax upon bus
| mess men, manufacturers and other
large employers of labor, and their argu-
ment appears to be good one,
The charge openly made in Washing
ton that two of the four justices of the
supreme court who voted to sustain the
constitutionality OF the income tax did
so on legal technicality and that in
the absence of that technicality the vote
would have stood 6 to , against the con
stitutlonality of the entire law, instead

Immigration.

Washington1ans returning from the
east agree that never before was there
such opportunity to direct desirable i'm
migration to the Pacific northwest. In
every eastern state are thousands who
have been crippled by the hard times
left with few thousands or few hun
dreds, and eager to find a new land and
begin again the struggle of life. If
this element is not directed here it will
be directed to California or the south.
1t a matter OF regret that the recent
legis. ature made no provision for press
ing the claims of the state in the east
ern centers of population. The expendi-
ture of nearly 100000 at the worlds
fair, and the failure to appropriate a
few thousand for present needs, bears
close resemblance to the folly of spend
ing thousands for sowing and nothing
for the harvest.
That which the state has eglecte d
must be undertaken by the different
counties, cities, districts and railroads.
The northwest wants no more indebted
ness but 1t does want the new capital
that is brought IN by immigration

pr0ximately one-half Of this amoun I will
be secured by bonds upon the road, which
will probably be foated at the present
chsspness of money at 5per cent. Thus
an .arning OF $500 per mile over operat-
ing expenses will permit the Valley road
to pay interest on its. bonds and 5 per
cent dividends upon its stock. Taking
the Southern Pacific bonded indebtedness
in the San joaquin valley to average S25,
600, at per cent. which is below the
statement given by Poor. that company
must earn above its operating expenses
$500 per mile to pay the interest upon
its bonds alone, allowing nothing in the
form of dividend for its stockholders.
With the prospect of having its rates
materially reduced by the state board OF
railroad commissioners, and of fighting a
competitor so well prepared for the fray
as the Valley road, the financial problems
which Mr.. Huntington. the head OF the
Southern Pacific company, will be called
upon TO solve in the near future would
appear to be very difficult. In the mean
time the people get the advantage Of reas-
enable rates, and the two pern nocratlc

com missioners have kept the pledges made

LOCAL OIL INTERESTS
Two.

Transportation Not Yet Secured-Notes From
the Field
No solution of the transportation prob
lem has yet been arrived at ana from
present appearances nothing can be hoped
for in Fthat direction for some time to
come. The secretary OF the exchange said
yesterday that the only obstacle in the
way OF an Agreements being reached be-
tween that corporation and some one of
the companieS that have been considering
the matter is the want of unanimIty
among the producers. If the exchange
were in position to guarantee the total
output of the field, SO that no competing
company could come in and get hold
on the business. the transportation ques-
tion would be brought to a speedy con-
cluslon. AS the situation now stands
there are numb ber OF producers who have
not come into the exchange ana they
practically block the way to any further
negotiations for shipping oil by sea.
Should the whole matter be taken out of
the hands OF the oil exchange affairs will
remain about as they were over two
months ago.
Dohenv Il Connor's we'll at the corner

Gngsworth we'll. between State and Court
streets, Friday night at a depth Of 955
feet. The drill is now thirty feet in the
sand.

Pumping was begun in the Lawrence
well on Park place above Temple street
yesterday afternoon.
Excavations are being made by NJ.

premises.
The Powell we'll spouts regularly when
ever the pump is stopped. 1t is proving
q gYeat producer and no doubt hos come
thing TO do with the amount of drilling
that issbeing done in the eastern end of
the field. -
The Union Oil company is making
test we'll on First street at the Belmont
grounds. 1t is the intention of the own
ers to drill as deep as possible IN order to
explore the lower depths of that locality.
Thus far only slight indication of oil
has neen found. but at depth of 1900
feet heavy flow of water was reached
which has given great deal of trouble
ever since.
