special says:
It has just leaked out that 100000
of Tacoma City warrants held in this
city have been declared illegal by the
supreme court Of Washington. The
firm Of Lederer & Strauss is reported
to hold over $50, 900, the State Savings
bank $4,000. Lang Bros. $4,000; Yon-
ker Bros. and the PEOPLES Savings
bank several thousand dollars each.
The warrants were purchased in the
latter part of 1893 and the spring of
1894, and no interest has ever been
paid on them. They were issued in
excess of the constitutional debt-mak
ing power of the city, and in addition
have once been paid by the city. The
city treasurer of Tacoma paid off the
warrants and then. it is alleged, in
stead of cancelIing them, resold them
to eastern parties to the amount of

that the warrants held in Des Moines
were among those that should have
been cancelled. A large block was pur-

it may be stated that while several of
them are quite well filed. others more
so, there are a few which have not

gets old, The Herald is requested to
make another appeal to those in whose
places of business the boxes are.

The gentlemanly clerk at the hotel is
urgently requested to place the box

inform him that the Home is conducted
by women for the purpose of caring for
little ones who have no parents and
that there are SO of the little ones to

the latter Is never resorted to. save as
an extreme measure. That the Home
is financially depressed and the future
welfare of the children depends in a
measure upon the success OF THIS con-
tribution. Dollars and half eagles are
acceptable, of course. but dimes and

thankful spirit which prompted the
Savior of mankind to remark of the

Why Ben Franklin Still Lives.
professor w. P Trent in Mcclure )
MAGAZINE fer Januaryl

Magazine fer january
There are, 1 conceive, two chief rea-
sons why the name of Franklin is so
constantly on our lips and his memory
so impressed upon our hearts-why, in
other words, he really lives for us in
stead of being a mere fossil in the
strata of history. One is that as an
embodiment of practical learning,
shrewd mother wit, honesty and pa
triotism he is a typical and in many
respects unapproachable product of
true Americanism. The cher is that
he is the most complete representative
of his century that any nation can
point to. With regard to the typical
character of his Americanism, few
cavils will be raised, but with regard
to the claim that he best represents
the eighteenth century there will prob
ably be not little dissension. Wash
ington, DR.. Johnson, Frederick the
Great, and Voltaire might each and
all be put in competition with the sage
who snatched the lightning Rrom
heaven and the sceptre from tyrants.
and would have many supporters; but
in none of these does the age of prose
and reason seem to find such an ade-
quate and complete expression as in
Franklin. Washington is beyond his
own or any century; Dr. Johnson does
not sufficiently represent the age on it's
rational side: Frederick is too extreme
a combination of daring and sublime
seriousness of purpose and petty affec-
tation; while Voltaire is at once too
intense and not radical enough, and is,
after all, too entirely a man of letters
Franklin, on the other hand thorough
ly represents his age in it's practical
ity, in its devotion to science, in its
curiosity, in its human
itarianism, in its lack of spirituality,
IN its calm, self-content-in short, On
its exultation of prose and reason over
poetry and faith.

Some weeks ago one H H Mead of
Sparta, o., wrote letter to the mayor
and council of this city, offering to
come here and deliver an ''oration' in
the tabernacle, for the sum Of $500,
said grafton to be a patriotic sort of
an address,. 1.-The Grandeur of Amer
ica," or something like it. The COM
munication was unique, both as to
s'readin', ritin' and spellin'," and in a
joke was referred TO Councilman
O'Meara for action, O'Meara to send
for advance sheets of the same, pass
upon them and report.
g 81 e
O'Meara has performed a portion of
his duty and will do the balance to-
day. AS result of a communication,
Mead has sent some advance sheets of
his Grafton to the city recorder. The
communication which accompanies
same is another unique piece of Eng
lish, and is herewith appended:

there was probably some merit in
