long ways from representing what
republicans believe ought to be
done, but it does represent what
can become a law, if the Senate
will consent, and that is the prin-
cipal reason for its having been
put through the House. The ad-
ministration already has authority
to issue bonds and no secret is
made of its intention to use that
authority. If those bonds could
be issued under the House bill
many millions of dollars in inter
est would be saved That's the
long and short of it; it isn't a ques-
tion Of principle 30 much as of
dollars and cents
The House committee on For
eign Affairs will report !. resolu-
tion asking the President for in
formation concerning the alleged
utterances of Am bassador Bayard
in public speeches. When that
information is forthcoming, if Mr..
Bayard has been correctly report
ed, he will hear from the House,
and it will not be a commendatory
message, either. The same COM
mittee will ask for all the papers
in the Waller case.
1t sounds odd to hear men dis
cussing the probability of nalf Of
the electoral votes of Texas being
cast for the republican presidential
ticket next year, but men who
know the situation in the state are
doing that very thing. Mr.. Frank
Welch, Texan who is now in
Washington, said: "There is
hardly any doubt of a successful
combine between the Texas re-
pu licans and populists, and their
combined forces ought to be able
to knock out the democrats, as
the present Governor was only
elected by plurality. 1t has
been agreed that the populists shall
name the entire state ticket and
that the presidential electors and
representatives in Congress shall
be equally divided with the re-
publicans.'

The tariff bill that went
through the House Thursday of
last week was framed only the day
before, and thus there is associat-
ed with it an idea of legislative
celebrity that has been entirely too
rare in recent years. This triumph
of conception and execution has a
refreshing effect upon the country
just now, when it has been school
ed for many months to see all
crises met by DELAYS, though all
those delays only tended to make
the muddle more hopeless. A few
measures have been driven
through with greater haste, to be
sure, but it is mainly in the earlier
Congresses that we must look for
instances of quicker work. The fact
comes home to the people that in
Reed, Dalzell, Dingley and others
they have to-day just as capable
and reliable representatives as
were Clay, Calhoun, Lowndes and
Grundy The Dingley bill is not
intended as criterion of Republi-
can policy; its object is to furnish
temporary relief for the Treasury.
Nothing better than a compromise,
of course it embodies little of the
highest political sagacity of the
majority. But the bill is better,
far better, that the evil it is de-
signed to correct, and it was pass
ed by the party to which the coun
try has learn to look for rescue
when it has been betrayed.

Pennsylvania Coal Company.

Stahl coal has been favorably |
known in this market for num-
Der OF years, but has never been
represented by special agent un-
til this season. Owing to the in
creasing demand and popularity
of this brand, the Pennsylvania
Coal Co onpany of Kirksville, Mo-,
owners and operators Of the mines
at Stahl, No., have established an
agency in Quincy for the sale Of
their product in this vicinity.
Although entering the market
somewhat lata in the season, the
rapidly increasing sale, under the
management of Mr.. Howard o.
Wood, has placed the business on
a substantial and permanent basis.
Large consumers who realize that
the quality of the coal used. is of
great Importance in the economical
production of steam, have been
quick to recognize the superior
merits of the Stahl coal. The re-
suit has been that the largest con-
sumers of lump coal in the city
are using the Stahl coal in prefer
ence to all others. No blasting is
employd in mining this coal, which
renders it free from slack and fine
dirt. This feature, together with
the fact that it is easily ignited
and produces the least quantity of
ashes, makes this coal especially
adapted for domestic use.-The
Quincy Wing.

The Adair County Bible Society

The Goth annual session of the
Adair County Bible Society was
held in the First Presbyterian
church last Sunday evening. At
ter an appropriate song service
the meeting proceeded to the
regular routine business of the
society.
The treasurer's report showed
that during the past year $50 was
contributed to the parent society
at New York and $3O.47 now on
hand. To this was added the
contribution of the evening,
amounting to S14.6S cash and
some subscriptions not yet paid.
The address of the evening was
delivered by Rev. H. P. Bond,
superintendent of Bible Society
work in Missouri. Rev. Mr.. Bond
gave review of the work done
by the society during the past
year, not only in this country but
in foreign lands, showing the i'm
portanee of the open Bible in mis-
sionary work.
The following officers were
chosen for the ensuingyear:
W. T. Baird, President; B. F.
Heiny, Vice Pres; J. H. scarbor-
ough, Secretary; s. NJ. Link,
Treasurer; B. F. Stanton, Deposi-
tory; the pastors of the city, exc
cutive committee
No depository has been open
during the past year; but the ex-
ecutive committee met early Mon
day and selected B. F. Stanton as
depository for the Society, and the
books on hand are now offered for
sale at that place. A committee
consisting of Messrs W. T. Baird,
S. NJ. Link, and j. II. Scarborough
was appointed to make necessary
additions to the supply of Bible 8
ON hand and this bill be done at
once.
In addition to the meeting at
the First Presbyterian church
Sunday evening a meeting was
held at the c. P church, also un-
der the auspicies of the Bible So
ciety. An interesting address was
delivered by Mr.. Gordon, State
Secretary of the Y. NJ. G. A.
These meetings have inspired a
new interest in the work, and we
anticipate successful year for the
Society. w. 7. BAIRD, Pres.

POLITICAL POINTERS.

There was a time when many
republicans who could no agree
with what he did respected Mr..
Cleveland because they believed
him % be conscientious and
straightforward. That time has
passed. Mr.. Cleveland has shown
himself to be trickster. And in
nothing has he shown it palmer
than in that hysterical message
appealing to Congress for financial
aid. Although that appeal was
made when Congress was ready to
adjourn for the holiday recess
many members having started foi
home the republican majority at
once gave up the idea of a recess
and worked even on Christmas
day to respond to the appeal. by
preparing tariff bill. not exclu-
slvely for protection but to in
crease the revenues of the country
to the extent of $4,000, 900, and
a bill authorizing the sale of per
cent coin bonds to maintain the
gold reserve and of TIE issuing of
per cent Treasury certificates to
meet any Immediate deficit. These
bills have been passed by the
House, although not few re-
publican members voted reluctant
ly for the bond bill, rather than
have it said that the republican
House had refused to aid the
President, and forty-seven of them
voted against it anyway.
-
1t is now clear that Mr.. Cleve-
land did not want the aid of Con-
gress. That was plainly shown
when he, through Secretary Car
Isle, declared that the House bond
bill would not help the admins
tration unless "coin" was struck
out and "gold" was substituted
therefor. That was asking an i'm
possibility, for Mr.. Cleveland
knew perfectly well that the House
was stretching things to agree to
a bond bill at all, and that bill
for gold bonds could not get one
hundred votes, let alone pass. But
that isn't all. 1t is now announced
that Mr.. Cleveland will not wait
to see whether the Senate will pass
the House bills, but will proceed
to make another issue of bonds,
and that it will be made large
enough to carry him through the
remainder of his administration.
and they are going to that same
old syndicate, although a pretense
is to be made of giving the public
an opportunity to subscribe for
them.
The five reasons which Repre-
sentative Henderson, of Iowa,
gave for supporting the bond bill
that passed the House are weighty.
First, the bill does not require a
bond issue; only authorizes. it, if
necessary; second, the bonds if
issued would bear a lower rate of
interest than those issued by the
administration, and those it is
now arranging to issue under the
old law; third, it compels the ad-
ministration to give our own citi-
zens a chance to buy any bonds
issued before offering them to
foreign bankers; fourth, it does
not retire the greenbacks, but en-
powers the Secretary of the Treas
ury to keep them out of the posses
sion o! spectators when necessary;
fifth, i5 prevents the administra-
ton selling bonds to meet de-
ticiencies in the revenues, as it
has done. This bond bill is

clan. That means local treatment and
examinations. No wonder they hesitate.
And hesitation gives disease stronger
foothold.
The truth is that local treatment and
examinations are nearly always un-
necessary. They should not be SUBJ
mitted to till everything else fails.

was opened shortly after 3 o'clock Of
flcer Fowle, who swore to the complaint,
told of the proceedings of Rice and his
gang in front of the station on the Sunday
night two weeks ago and of how Rice had
marched at the head of a crowd up and
down before police headquarters singing
and shouting until the entire neighborhood
was in a turmoil and people in bed two
blocks away dressed and came over to as
certain the cause of all the row. Mrs. Rice,
the preacheress, had been placed in Jail
earlier in the evening and bail had been re-
fused for her until the assembled crowd
had dispersed. At this Rice was aggrieved
and hung around, attended by an immense
crowd, until patience ceased to be virtue,
when he, too, was jugged. Then the mob
quietly went home.
Rice, in his own behalf, said he was a
good, law-abiding citizen and only asked
for himself the same treatment accorded
to the Salvation Army and others. He
claimed he was the victim of merciless
and relentless police persecution. At j

neat and quick job in the recovery Of
stolen property was done by Police Officer
Shand yesterday, and, although he did not
corral the thief, it was only because the lat.
ter was the better sprinter. At IL o'clock
W. Cole reported that some sneak thief
had entered his room at No. 232 North
Main street and made way with his over
coat. Shortly after noon Shand saw two
men enter a second hand store on Main,
just above First, with large bundle. Un-
rolling the package, the proprietor was
asked to buy an overcoat. Shand dropped
in about this time, and the thief. throwing
the coat over his arm, walked out of the
store and started up Main street. Making
a few inquiries, and assuring himself the
coat was stolen property, Shand took after
the thieves.
They saw him coming and broke into
run. Down Main to Requena, along Los
Angeles to Arcadia and on up, ran the
fugitive, with Shand bad second. On
Sanchez street the man lodged through
saloon and made his escape while the Off
Ger stopped to pick up the coat which had
been thrown away. Both men are known

main in the city, is a matter of but short
time. The coat was returned to its owner.
