them. ''Why," said ono of the old

THE FACTS ARE OBVIOUS.

to the Sugar Trust.
The unity with which the republican
senators voted in defense Of the sugar
trust interests the other day would
command edmiration an evidence Of
party discipline. if it didn't imply We
nality in the sacrifice of public inter
csts to a dang rous and corrupt mo-
nopoly. Every republican senator
who voted cast the influence of his
voice with the sugar trust, and
every republican senator who was
present and not paired voted. Those
who werc paired were on the side of
tho trust, that it may be said that
the entire republican strength in the
senate was mustered in behalf Of the
Odious sugar trust.
The democrats in the senate, on tho
other hand, were divided. That is to
say of the twenty five who voted TWEEN
ty-threc were in favor of the people
and two. Blanchard, of louisa ma. and
Roach, of North Dakota. voted for tho
trust. Blanchard is sugar cane
grower, and Roach Represents a con.
,stituency interested in sugar beets. It
may be assumed, therefore, that they
were Influenced by selfish considera.
tions. But there were a number of
democrats who didu't vote, and. there
fore, that admirable party discipline
which obtains among the republicans
is proved to be absent from the demo.
cratic party in tho senate.
But the republicans are welcome to
the glory which they may be able to
gather from this fact. The lack of
discipline is a fault. it is true. but not
SO grave an offense as the want of iu-
tegrity, and the vote shows that the
of the senate are hopeless
ly mortgaged to the sugar trust, and
the restoration of that party to power
can have no other effect than the re-
establishment Of trust dominance in
the legislation of the the country.
The honest people are invited to a
contemplation Of the effect Of such q
restora tion.-Kansas City Times.

Incorrect Usee.

We lately took occasion to criticize
the writing of anyone or someone as
one word. 1t is suggested to us that
there are one or two other similar and
worse instances of the same sort. Thus
we occasionally see oneself instead of
ones self, and this is apparently the
conamon method of writing the words
in England, and is, of course, liable to
creep into our English. Another i'm
stance is whatever. is used as an inter-
negative. This is a very recent inno-
vation, but frequently appears of late.
For example, "Vhatever did You do il
for?" There is certainly no authority
for thus making an interrogativ out
OF the relative pronoun. and the use
ought to be freWnef on.--N. !, indie.

The Mint Scandal.

The GaZette's special from Carson
says there is cons derable excitement
i'll town and many rumors are floating
around regarding the big Mint steal
1t has the following regarding the cx-
animation of John r. Jones:
"The examination of J. r. Jones
was resumed this morning, with Mint
Inspector Mason on the stand, being
cross examined by Attorney Coffin.
Mason is a shrewd man and has his
theory as to the Mint shortage, and
all the efforts of the attorney to have
him express opinions other than in
conformity with his theory was of no
avail. AS i'll yesterdays examination
there was some lively tits between
the witness and the attorney. A
witness at the noon recess was heard
to remark that they would railroad
man into prison simply upon theo-
ries.'
"Piper, the man arrested at Berke-
ley as being connected with the Mint
shortage, demanded an examination
by the authorities of California before
being brought to Nevada, and the
time set for the hearing was Monday
next. This will probably set some Of
the many guessens at rest as to why
the prisoner did not arrive in Carson
yesterday. '.'

Sheriffs Kavanaugh of Nebraska,

we're arrested for the alleged taking of
prisoner from the Battle Mountain
constable, have been held to answer
before the Lander county grand jury
in $4,000 bonds each, says the Silver

Battle Mountain, claims that Michael
Lamb, the prisoner, was in his custo-
dy, having been committed to the
Lander county jail as fugitive from
justice. The constable had Lamb at
the depot ready to take him to Austin
when Sheriff Kavanaugh arrived and
took Lamb into his charge. William
son says he protested against the as
sumption of authority, but the sheriff
did not heed him.

Duirant's Examination.

SAN FRANCISCO. April Theodore
Durrant passed a quiet night and
when he appeared in Judge Conlan' 8
courtroom this morning was as re-
freshed and self composed as ever.
He conversed with his attorneys
earnestly for some time before the
court opened.
II. E. Shook, the undertaken who
was called to the church by DIR. Glib
son and Dentist King to look after
the body of Miss Williams, was the
first witness. He said that he had
known Miss Williams in life three
months and had known Durrant for
two years. He described the position
of the body, and gave several small
unimportant details on the condition
of the body.
Mrs. Amelia Voy, with whom Miss
Williams was to stop before going to
Tacoma, testified that Miss Williams
had come to her house ON the after
noon of the murder and had left about
8 o'clock alone. Mrs. Voy was not
allowed to tell where Miss Williams
was going. Mrs. Voy identified
clothes worn by the dead girl when
she left the house, and which were
found on the murdered girl.
Adolph Hope of Oakland testified
that ne had seen Durrant, with whom
he was acquainted, at the ferry on the
afternoon of the 18th. Hope says
that Durrant was in company with a
young lady smaller than himself He
did not see the lady's face, but she
wore a cape. He did not speak to
Durrant.
Florence Voy corroborated her
mothers testimony.
DR.. Gibson was the next witness
called. He answered the questions
put to him in a loud, clear voice. DR..
Gibson said that he had seen Dur
rant on Good Friday night at a
Christian Endeavor meeting held at
DR.. Vogel's home. He thought Dur
rant came to the meeting about $3.50
o'clock, after the conclusion of the
business meeting. Durrant remained
until the party broke up. The wit
ness had seen Durrant in the library
of the church alone on the week be-
fore. He had known that a new
lock had been put on the library door
but was not allowed to tell why on
motion Of the defense. He did not
have a key for the new lock. The
witness was at the church on the
morning that the body of Miss Will
iams was found. He heard a noise
in the church but did not investigate.
The ianitor's boy came apa told him
that the library lock was broken, and
he went to see abont it, but for some
reason did not open the door. He
went to his lodging house and was
later informed as to the finding of the
body by Mrs. Nolt. He went to the
church with DR.. King, father of George
King. ''. e''I.
DIR. Gibson gave some information
as to his past life. He was born in
