house of Payne county, at saltwater,
twenty-five miles southeast of here,
was burned last night about 10 o'clock,
together with all the county records
and furniture. No insurance. The
origin of the fire is due, it is said, to
an incendiary, and the news is that

Newspaper Subscription Laws.


Few readers or publishers of pap
ers fully and clearly understand the
law governing subscriptions. The
decisions of the United States Court
on this subject are;
/. Subscribers who do not give
express notice to the contrary are
considered as wishing to renew their
subscriptions.
2. If subscribers order the dis
continuance Of their periodicals,
the publisher may continue to send
them uatil all arrearagcs are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse
to take their periodicals from the
postoffice to which they are directed
they are responsible until they have
settled their bills and ordered them
discontinued.
4. If subscribers move to other
places without informing the pub
Usher, and the papers are sent to
the former address, they are held
responsible.
5. The courts have decided that
refusing to take periodicals from
the office, or removing and leaving
them uncalled for, is prima facie
evidence of intentional fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at the
end of time if they do not wish to
continue taking it; otherwise the
publisher is authorized to send it,
and the subscriber will be RESPONSE.

THE story of the German immigrant,
John Dean, published elsewhere in THE
TIMES is hard to believe. When 1t ia re-
membered that there are thousands Of
German, English and other foreign inns
migrants in this State enjoying all the
rights Of citizenship in contentment
and prosperity, 1t seems strange that
John Dean, g German who settled in
Lunenburg county. this State, should
have had such an exceptional experience
OF brutality and oppression, as related
by him. There are two sides to every
question, and until we have heard the
other part OF this story, we shall accept
John Deans statement with q large
sprinhling OF salt. Virginisns are noted
for their hospitality and settlers who
come to this State to build up homes
and better their condition are welcomed
and given every encouragement In all
legitimate efforts in that direction. OF
course, there are men who sometimes
prove themselves bane to commu-
nifty. Whether Dean belongs TO that
class or not, we have no means "a yet Of
knowing. There is evidently q mistake
somewhere.

THE SUGAR BOUNTY QUESTION:.

Louisiana's Senators and representa-.
lives in Congress are speaking sheir
minds plainly on the action OF Comp.
troller Bowler in refusing to pay the
sugar bounties, on the ground that the
act Of Congress authorizing 1t ia uncon-
stitutional. Senators Blanchard and
Gallery, and Representative Meyer. of
the above named State. arrived in
Washington yesterday and had con-
ference with Secretary Carlisle on the
subject. The Senators insisted that the
comptroller had no authority under the
law TO question the constitutionelisy of
an act OF Congress; that he was charged
with the construction Of the laws as he
found them, and that II he had the
power claimed he would be paramount
to Congress-.
They strongly maintained that Con.
gross never intended to give subordi-
nate in the Treasury Department almost
supreme authority in such momentous
mstters. The Secretary, however, took
different view. He admitted that at
times the comptroller might embsrrass
the governments very seriously in its
operations, but said he saw no present
remedy.
Congress, in his opinion, has conferred
this authority upon the comptroller,
but he could not direct or review his de-
cisions, and he. the Secretary. did not
have even the power to remove. Mr.
Gallery remarked that some one ought
to have at least that authority and to
exercise it. Secretary Carlisle did not
In any way indicate what were his views
on the constitutional question raised by
Mr.. Bowler.

Japan, China, Mexico and other
countries with the silver standard, as it
ever was.

consisting of gold, silver and paper,

should the recent experience of the
Treasury in the purchase OF gold to
maintain this equilibrium have to be
often repeated. Hence the thinking man
cannot help inquiring II 1t is not better
to have currency wholly our own than
one which Is maintained by the constant
borrowing of foreign gold.

The Bluef1eld Telegraph OF yester-
day takes hopeful view of the strike
situation In the Flat Top coal fields,
and it is earnestly hoped that the
trou bles in that section will soon be at
an end. The Telegraph says Mon
days business IN the coal fields met the
highest expectations of the producing
companies. The output of coal. and
coke was 494 cars. There were further
assertions from the union, some impor-
tations of labor, and on the whole a de-
cided improvement in the situation
If everything works smoothly at the
larger mines to-day the 500 mark will
be reached and passed. The union
leaders are still holding out for scales
or other compromises, but that has be-
come q dull formality. There is really

gon Of Mr.. Cleveland-but for the pur.
pose Of making money for themselves
and their clients, the whole situation
becomes clear. There is not cloud on
1t. Mr.. Cleveland wanted to "preserve
the credit and honor OF the nation" and
the syndicate wanted 20 make money
The syndicate pocketed about gle, 600, -
600 OF profits, and the "honor and credit
OF the nation" are precisely where they
were when Mr.. Cleveland called in his
William and Wall street financial physi.
clans.
The result is that gold is going out
agsin! The export movements started
mildly et first-a few thousand was sent
OUTPUT now 1t has assumed all the
proportions OF an organized raid on the
Treasury. The great trouble seems TO
be that other banking interests are
worried because the syndicate has made
such an immense profit out OF the farce
OF sustaining the honor and credit OF
the nation" These outside firms are
prepared to convince themselves that II
such high prices are TO be paid for "sus-
tanning the honor and credits of the ma
tion," they are prepared TO work the
racket for Gil 1t Ia worth.
We have no doubt that the syndicate
has carried out Its contract in good
faith. We have no doubt that 1t has
done the best IL could: but the British
gold standard Is memorable. The cards
are stacked; What one firm can do
another can do, AID go we are now hav-
Ing the beautiful spectacle OF other

the purpose OF being cslled in to pro-
tect 1t.
Meanwhile 1t should be borne in min
that the s160, 1000. 900 OF bonds that have
been issued, have not profited any pro-
Queer OF the United States one single

The Secretary, like the rest of OF Mr..
Cleveland's cabinet, "has enlisted .or

carry out the policy OF the administra-
tion. He tries to draw On analogy be-
tween free silver and the unlimited
issue OF greenbacks, when the facts ere
oil different; but in the recital OF the
history OF the demonetization of silver
by the United States and other govern
ments, he inadvertently establishes lust
what the friends Of free coinage claim
namely, that the withdrawal Of such q
large amount OF the white metal from
circulation as coin, and the consequent
lessening Of the demand for the produc,
OF the mines. are among the causes O,
the depreciation Of silver to-day:
The advocates of free silver coinage
claim that the independent action OF
the United States in the restoration OF
