SPEAKING of the late Democratic con-
yention in Kentucky, the Brooklyn Stand
ard Union, bigoted Republican gold or
gan, says: "What causes the commotion
south of the Ohio, from the mountains of
Virginia to the Mississippi? Simply the
fact that the great bulk of the Democracy,
no matter what the record of the conven-
ton that is clearly demoralized all
through may be, are affirmatively and
aggressively and determinedly for the
free, independent and unlimited coinage
of silver at the ratio of 16 to l. That is
what is the matter with Kentucky"

DISAPPEARING DEFICIT.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat rather
reluctantly and guardedly remarks: "The
fact that the treasury deficit was $685.
100000 less in the fiscal year just ended
than it was in the one Immediately pre-
ceding gives come ground for hope that
it will disappear before the present year
ends" The Globe Democrat might have
added, if it had desired to be perfectly
candid with its readers, that the enor-
nous treasury surplus turned over to the
Republicans by the first Cleveland ad-
ministration was not only squandered
during the succeeding Harrison admins
tration, but the foundation was laid for
a huge deficit in the form of ruinous
tariff legislation that produced an almost
unexampled depression in all branches
of business and thus largely reduced the
consumption of revenue yielding articles;
and that, since the new Democratic tariff
system has been in operation, the country
has entered upon what promises to be a
remarkable era of business prosperity,
with enhanced profits for invested capital
and increased wages for millions of work
ing people, all of which is certain steadily
to swell the receipts of the government
and transform the existing deficit into a
surplus before the close of the current
fiscal year. This will be hard on the Re-
publican calamity shriekers throughout
the country who are afflicted with an ach-
ing anxiety to be restored TO federal po-
sitions, but it will hardly excite the un-
comfortable anger of the overwhelming
majority of the American people.

The state of Pennsylvania has con-
tinuously maintained a hospital for the
insane since 1871. During that period, of
the 10000 patients treated, $500 were
cured and 2,705 were improved. So it
appears that insanity is by no means the
hopeless disease it was considered in ye
olden time.

The Rio (srande Dam,


Maj. Llewellyn brings word from Chi
capital necessary to build irrigation
works on the Rio Grande, and that the
sum of $4,000 has been deposited with
the Title Guarantee & Trust company, of
Chicago, to pay for surveys and prelimi-
nary work. This is not mere rumor.
Mr.. Llewellyn saw the cablegram trans
hitting the money and stating that all
details were arranged and contracts
signed, and he had talk with Frank
Smith and Mr.. Owen about the matter.
The dam will be built at the narrow,
rocky point about fifteen miles below
Rincon. 1t will be solid structure
SIXTY feet in height, 100 feet in width at
the bottom and twenty-five feet on top,
and 1t will back up enough water to irri-
gate 100000 acres. The main canal,
when completed, will be 100 miles long,
and for the first twelve miles it will be
100 feet wide. The canal will traverse
the mesa east of Las Cruces, and it is
proposed to carry it through the franklin
mountains by a tunnel to the land of the
Isleta grant back of Fort Bliss.
The Santa Fe track will be removed for
a distance of about twenty miles between
Gramma station and Leasburg. The con-
tract for moving the tract has been made
with the railroad company. The grade
of the new line is only per cent, and
there will be stretch of sixteen miles
without any cut and with fill of only
three feet. The cost of moving the line
is estimated at $4,000 per mile. This
work will be begun inside of sixty days,
and force of 1000 men will be en-
ployed.
Surveyor E. R. Stafford and Hydraulic
Engineer B. e. Limb, with corps of as.
sistants, are camped at Selden and are
taking the topography of the damsite.
Work on the dam and canals will be
pushed simultaneously, and the projec-
tors believe that they will have the water
running in the canal above Las Cruces
by next February.-Las Cruces In

PRESS COMMENTS.
A Great Debate,


Miss Josie Xix is W. H. Harvey's pri-
vate secretary. In her desk in Mr.. Har-
vey's office she has the names, addresses
and civil or military titles of some $4,000
free silver advocates. She knows per
sonally everyone of the leaders in the
silver cause, and usually can lay her fin
ger on any of them. just now however,
she is densely ignorant of the where
abouts of Mr.. Harvey himself. Every
day she leaves the Fort Dearborn build
ing with an armful of letters, books and
challenges, and hurries to the Winder-
mere hotel, but when she is on duty in
her office she shakes her head and smil-
ingy protests that she hasn't the remot-
est idea where Mr.. Harvey is. The fact
ls, however, that Mr.. Harvey is prepar
ing for his coming monetary ''set to"
with Roswell G. Horr, the single-stand-
ard heavyweight of the Atlantic coast,
and has pitched his training quarters at
the Windermere hotel. The contest
will come off July 16 and will consist of
fourteen rounds of three hours each.
Judge Blodgett and Judge Caldwell have
been selected by both sides as referees;
Lyman j. Gage will be in the corner for
the eastern man and II. A. Taylor will
look for Mr.. Harvey between the rounds.
The fight will be to finish and both men
are training hard. Horn is at work, it
is said, in Plainfield, N. Y, and has Ed
ward Atkinson as trainer. His quarters
are in secluded spot, and no one is per-
mitted to intrude.-Chicago Record.

future. 1t is true that there are some OF
our members who would like TO zee q bout
now and then by outside talent, but there
are other members who are decidedly get
against 1t, aud the boxing lovers seem
inclined to give up their own desires
rather than 60 against the withes in this
respect ofthose opposed to boxing
Besides" continued Mr.. Mckee, "the
boxing shows given by the club were not
worth the trouble they cost. They did not
help the club financially, or any other
way that / can see. 1t was a oaEe of a

The members of the Improved Order of
the Knights of p ythias were given a banquet
last evening at the home OF George shuch,
familiarly known as Papa" Shuch the Or
ganizer of the first lodge of the improved
order in the District.
This order was founded last December
after the Knights of 2 ythias' encanpment,
held in Washington in the fail. The Ge rnSan
ritual was denied to all lodges, and for
this and several other rea sons the German
lodges felt compelled to either dlsband or
form a separate organization.
The improved order was the result and it
has prospered beyond the greastest ex-
pectations of its promoters. Although or
ganized in December las; there were over
250 lodges represented at a convention
held last month in Detroit. The banquet
last night was given in compliment TO the
venerable Mr.. Shuch and it was made
the occasion of fpresentiDg to that gentleman
handsome medal as a token Of the ap-
probation OF his fellow knights OF what
he has done in behalf Of the improved

ent Alvey of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail.
road Company were before the Comm ission-
ers to-day to protest against the order for
the removal Of the railroad switch from
the alley In tho vicinity of the Government
Printing Office.
The complaint against the switch came
from the Northeast Washington Citizens
Association, and was based upon fairgrounds
that the siding was no longer used by the
Public Printer, and being out of use had
become nuisance.
Mr.. McGiil maintained to-day that the
siding is his property, and that the Public
Printer was merely tenant The consent
of Mr.. Benedict for its removal should not
be considered
Mr. Alvey suggest that the prejudice
of the Citizens Association should not be
permitted to weigh against a private en-
terprise and private property.
Mr.. McGill was requested to indorse his
statement upon the back of the order for
removal Of the siding, together with the
proviso as presented by him, that in case
the Improvement is not in first-class con-
dition he win make It SO.
This was done, and the paper was left
with the Commissioners for future con.

TwENTY.FOUR HOUR RECORD.
Local wheelmen Think That Is the
Next TO Tackle,


Now that the bicycle riders have be-
come stirred up over the Baltimore and
Washington rosd record and the coming
road race of the Washington Road Club,
they are looking around for other fields
In which to work, and they have again
begun to talk of the twenty-four-Eour
record.
The advance in proficiency in cycle
work of Washington riders is well Illus
trdted by the attempts made for this
record. 1t shows better than anything
else how much better to-day the ridrs
here are than they were a couple of years
ago.
L. c. Wall was the first Washington
man to make a twenty y-four-hour ride for
the local record. He did his work over
the Conduit road, where all efforts for the
honor have since been made. Wall in
twcnty-four hours covered 272 miles. This
only stood 4 short time, when j. Fister
made an effort to better Wallis run. He
succeeded, riding 279 miles. Then Wall
tried again, and reversed the last two
numbers of listers record, covering 297
miles
Then a new aspirant was found in the
person of j Mount This young man was
a speedy and courageous rider. He was
paced by L. c. Palmer and was on fair
way to outdo al, .O,.ier efforts. He had
covered more than 200 miles in IA hours,
and was going good and strong when he
quit. He had weak lungs, and about three
months afterward Mount died.
After this effort of Mounts, E. C.
Yeatnlap tried for the record. He went
ahead of Fister, covering in the twenty
four hours 800 miles. Fister then tried
again and beat Yeatman eight miles, hav-
ing 311 miles chalked up to his credit.
Yeatm8p came back again, and this time
far outstripped all former efforts, covering
In the allotted time 800 "a miles.
None of these records were ever allowed
by the Century Road Club, no owever, That
body took the ground that record OF this
sort, to be legitimate, had to be made over
u 6O-mile course, and that the course over
which these riders had gone was only 20
miles.
This fact, and tho frequent assertions
made that there are DOW number of riders
" Washington who can wipe out Yeatman's
mark, has started new interest in the "a
hour record, and other riders Will take a
shy at it as sooD as the other events now
op hand have been brought off.
