china may to large extent disarm
them as to the real nature Of this ln-
sidious but implacable flend. He
further says the evil effects OF the

4 PILPiT PR0PBEI Of EVIL.
The Rev. Dr.. Acton Of Seattle, Washington,
breaches a Fiery Sermon.
Revolution sat the CannOn's Mouth" Pre-
dieted for This Country
and Rome Compared.

SEATTLE, Wash, May 25-The Rev.
DR.. j. H. Acton, pastor of the First
Unitarian church, in preaching the
baccalaureate sermon before the stud
ents of the University of Washington
yesterday, prophesied a speedy revOlu-
tion in the United States, which he
said would be accomplished aat the
cannon's mouth if need be" and which
he predicted would oVerturn the exist
ing order of things and radically modi-
fy the national government
Comparing this country with the
Roman empire, the preacher said:
"Rome could levy taxes at the viii of
her ruler, declare any complaint trea-
son, marry her daughters for money
and titles, punish a servants tardiness
with death, let the thief and murderer
go free with a mild reproach and make
slaves Of the profOundest philosophers.
What less than this is America doing
to-day? Rome's moral poverty sealed
her doom. Oh, my country, is it true
of thee? The last resort of an out
ragged nation is revolution. For Ameri-
ca now there is no other redress. 1t
must come. We do not want new hands
at the helm, but a new ship. RevOlu-
tion is at hand, but it need not be ma
tional ruin. Foundations long consid-
cred divine will be torn up. Constitu-
tions long considered sacred will be
changed. This will not come as the
echo Of a patriotic song. There is great
loss, ruin and a great upheaVal near at
hand. Do you ask me how these great
radical reforms are to be inaugurated?
1 will tell you-by the power of intel
ligent decision; by the explosion of ex-
panding indignation; by the final
climax of fruitless patience which
has at last eliminated in the resistless
fury of the tempest"
The sermon has provoked severe
criticism.

Senator Cannon Wants a Ground Map of
the United States Made.
WASHINGTON, May 28.-When young
Mr.. Cannon of Salt Lake, was elected
to the senate he got the particular op-
p0rtunity he has desired for years-a
chance to propose his scheme for a gi-
gantic ground map of the United
States, to be known as sour country in
miniature" Senator Cannon intro
duced a joint resolution providing for
a commission to investigate the mat
ter. The committee on public build
ings and grounds unanimously recon-
mended the resolution, and it passed
the senate without a dissenting voice.
1t is expected that the house will soon
send it to the president. Senator Can
mons resolution provides for the ap-
pointment of commission of five citi-
zens to examine into the advisability
and cost of a ground map at Washing
ton of the United States on a scale of
one square yard Of map for each square
mile of actual area, or on such scale as
it may be possible to comprise within
the reclamation of the Potomac flats
the map to be as nearly the country in
miniature as possible. Scientific men
have been greatly interested by Mr.
Cannon's proposition. Mr.. Cannon is
working hard to secure governmental
construction of the map at Washing.

be constructed, he says, by some west

CALLED Down BY nEoRR1LL.
The Governor Reads the RlOs Act to the
PenitentiaFy Directors.

LpuAboAA%aA4s OAEGEtDEBa
TOPEKA, Kan, May 27.-Gov. Morrill,
has just called down the penitentiary
directors on a practice which has long
been in existence. 1t is this: When
ever an appropriation for some specific
purpose is found to have been exhaust,
ed, funds for an entirely different pur-
pose are taken to make purchases.
Notwithstanding this usage of wrong
funds, hOweyt no record is made on
the books showing the exact nature of
the transaction or the source from
which the funds come. An instance
was the payment by the directors of a
bill for printing material out of the
fund specifically appropriated for
electrical supplies.
The governor has addressed a letter
to T. W, Eckert, chairman of the peni-
tentiary board. stating that the prac-
tice must be discontinued and that
whenever it was found necessary to use
funds for a purpose for which the spe-
cifc appropriation is exhausted, the
warden must make note of it as re-
quired by law.
In the same letter the governor calls
the attention of the prison directors TO
another irFegularity, saying: 81 learn
also that in providing for the rebuild
ing of the building destroyed by fire
you entirely disregarded section four,
and have gone on without making any
estimate or without submitting that
estimate to the executive council.
therefore ask that detailed estimate
be made at once, and that it be sub
mitted to the executive council as re-
quired by law"

He Tells Few Things About Topeka and
the Temperance Law.
Topeka, Kan, May 23.-At Francis
Murphy's temperance meeting last
night Frank H. Foster, who was re-
moved from the Topeka board of police
commissioners by Gov. Morrill, few
months ago, declared that there we're
26 drinking places in Topeka. He
charged that the open defiance of the
law was with the knowledge of Gov.
Morrill,, that the town had been deliv-
cred over to the enemies of the law
since 1893 and that the evil that had
been left undone by the populists had
been completed by the republican
administration. "Until four years
ago." he said, "the occupants of county
Offices were prohibitionists. Though
not all elected in 1892 we're liquor men,
the majority were under great obliga-
tions to the saloon element. They
owed their election to the money OF
Kansas City liquor men"
