AMMAN, a French protectorate in
Asia, has silver coin that weighs as

in circulation is the loot" which also
belongs to the oriental French colony
mentioned above. This monster gold

wardly large, is considered valuable

in Portland by Sheriff Driver. The tes-
timony last night seemed strong enough
to warrant Taft being held oyer. The
principal witness against him was
Lee Moorhouse who is now in Jail await
ing action by the, grand jury on the
charge of larceny. Taft and Moorhouse
charge each other with stealing the
grain. The justice placed the bonds at
5000.
About O'Clock this afternoon John
Kelly, a carpenter working On the new
barn of Phil Brogan, fell to the ground
a distance of over twenty-five feet. He
and Charlie Fouts were shingling the
roof and resting their feet on a narrow
scantling. Suddenly Mr.. Fouts called
out to Kelly that the support was Civ
ing away but before AsAy could save
himself he began sliding. He reached
for piece of lumber but missed it and
fell striking the ground ON his head.
He was unconscious for while but soon
recovered. His head is injured and his
arm very sore but it is not thought he is
seriously hurt.
The trial of the State VS.. John Dali
rymple, jr., charged with the larceny OF
some COWS was concluded last night by
the judge dismissing the defendant.
The evidence went to show that the
COWS, which were the property of s. +.
Brooks, had entered the Dalrymple field
to the injury of the grain and the elder
Mr.. Dalrymple told the young man to
drive them into the corral until there
should be time to drive them entirely off
the place. Just as young Dalrymple
had done as directed and was returning
from the corral Brooks met him and
asked him if he had seen the COWS, to
which the reply was made that he had
not. Mr.. Dalrymple testified that there
was no intention to do anything
more than to put the cattle in the
corral till there was time to drive
them away. Mr.. Brooks and his
daughter were witnesses for the state,
while the two Dalrymples and VIM.
Floyd were the principal witnesses for
the defense. Mr.. Floyd testified to the
good reputation of the defendant. ]. B.
Condor appeared for the defense.

THE KENTUCKY STRADDLE.

There is no getting around the fact
that the Democrats of Kentucky
were in tight place, and it is just as
certain that they were saved from de-
claring straight out for the unlimited
free coinage of the white metal by
the efforts of Secretary Carlisle dur
ing the past few weeks. This fact is
acknowledged by Senator Blackburn.
But while straight out free silver
declaration was prevented, the out.
come cannot but be disappointing to
all friends of sound financial sys.
TEN, for the real outcome of the con.
vention is an old time Democratic
straddle.
We state that Democracy there was
in tight place, and it was. Henry
Watterson had declared that if a
free silver plank was adopted at the
convention, from $4,000 to $4,000
Democrats would vote the Republi-
can ticket. On the other hand they
were confronted by the fact that if
the gold views of the president were
squarely presented in the platform
there would be an equally great loss
to the party in disaffected voters,
therefore they made no declaration
on the money question whatever but
reaffirmed the declaration of the
national convention of 1892, which
has been claimed by the silver ele-
ment of that party to favor their side
of the question, and by the admins
tration wing, as representing the gold
view. Then to please the gold wing,
the administration and the course it

THE GOLD RESERVE.

The gold reserve in the treasury was
a little over $107, 100000 yesterday,
and it is now understood that the syn
dictate has completed its contract SO
far as the paying in of gold is con-
cerned. The question has been raised
as to whether the obligation of the
syndicate ceases with the paying of
the gold. The treasury officials are
very quiet upon this point, and though
the question has not been formally
raised, it is understood that the treas
ury department feels that this agree
ment will hold until the 1st of Octo-
Der. In fact it is assumed by the
treasury officials that it will be to the
personal interest of the members of
the syndicate to exercise it's influence
to protect the gold in the treasury.
Possibly it may be to their interest,
and possibly it may not. When they
count up the immense profits they
have made out of these bonds, they
may be seized with desire to want
another lot, and quietly use their in
fiuence to have the reserve drained
again, knowing that bond issue
would follow. The treasury officials
are counting on the fact that gold
usually begins to flow toward the Uni
ted States from Europe about the
middle of August or before, and that
that will help to keep the reserve up
to near the present. But the condi-
tions are somewhat changed this year
and the balance of trade in our favor
is not what it has been for years past.
1t is to be hoped, however, that the
expectations of the treasury officials
will be realized, and that there will be
no run on the reserve, and that gold
will come to this country as freely as
ever it did during the late summer
and early fall months, as it will help
to promote better times.

A BOOMER.

The woman's edition of the ST.

boomer-a regular hummer. 1t is
all that has been claimed for it and
more. Such paper has never be-
fore been issued by corps of women
and st. Paul and Minnesota may will
feel proud of their efforts. The paper
is filled with choice illustrations and
over-running with interesting editor
ial, local and miscellaneous literary
productions. Some idea of it's size
may be cleaned by the statement that
the paper contains 81 pages of seven
columns to the page, a total of 1854
columns. The columns are q inches
in length and this would give total
of 1923 inches. From a financial, as
well as other points of view, the paper
is great success, as it contains 217

tion will be eXcelled.

the. same relative position thatrthe
present sixty lamps are placed. Here
we have a cost of $9,702.50 for placing
the city in shape to be lighted. Ii
our figures are correct, and they have
not yet been disputed by any one at
all acquainted with the subject, the
simple placing of the streets in condi-
tion to be lighted will cost within
$500 of the $4,000 which is said to be
sufficient to equip the city with a
first-class plant, and there are yet to
be provided dynamos, a boiler, engine,
and additional room wherein to place
them. In the light of these figures,
what folly to assume that $4,000 or
even $4,000 will put in a tirst-class
electric light plant, suitable to the
growing needs of the city. The ques-
tion which will interest all voters and
taxpayers is, where does the council
propose to get the money above $4,000
which will be required, if the issuing
of the bonds is authorized?
The Mankato free press. [volume] (Mankato, Blue Earth County, Minn.) 1879-1924, 1895-07-05
A FEW FIGURES.

The FREE PRESS has repeatedly ask
ing the council to give some informa-
tion as to the cost of an electric light
plant which it proposes to put in, so
that the voters of the city might vote
upon the bond question with some de-
gree of intelligence. This informa-
tion has not been forthcoming,
although the board of trade also
waited upon the council through a
committee, and requested similar in
formation. The FREE PRESS will,
however, give few figures showing
what it will cost toward equipping a
plant. Two hundred poles forty-fve
feet long, will cost $1,000 each set,
$4,000; $50 poles, thirty-fve feet long,
$500 each set, $1,000; 100 lamps at S25
each, $1,000; thirty-five miles of No. 6
wire, So, 502.50. This amount of wire
will allow the placing of 100 lamps in

selves to drift into position where
they have been in the power of a cor
poration, is no reason why they should
continue to do so, and they will not
when they resort to business princi-
pies in granting franchise, and then
demand that it be lived up to in every
respect on both sides.
And lastly, the statement of the
Independent that Mankato can put a
100 arc lamp plant suitable for it's
needs for $4,000 has already been
thoroughly disproved in these columns
and has not been disputed. Mankato
does not want cheap plant, and
we showed few evenings ago that it
would cost nearly $4,000 to pole, wire
and lamp the city, ready for lighting,
and it is safe to say that dynamos,
boiler, engine, ETC., of first-class ma
ture, cannot be put in for the balance
of the $4,000, nor more than twice
that amount.
