eurally satisfactory to Wall street and
Wyoming; to the debtors and creditors;
to farmers and to bond syndicates; to the

1t is evident that the money question IS
to be the vital issue of the campaign. The
attempt to force the tariff to
the front will not succeed. The
policy of protection has been OIL
ready settled by the people, and their
attention is now directed to the financial
system. The battle will be transferred

JUDGE BENSON'S PROPERTY !
All swept Away and His Family Left
=. Destitute.

y. Crookston, Mimi, June 13-The funeral
Of the late probate judge, c. M. Benson,
who killed. himself at East Grand Forks
because of the discovery of his misdeeds,
was held today. Benson leaves a wife
and seven children all under thirteen
years of age. What has become Of the
money Benson is supposed to have stolen
is not known, for the life insurance for
merly carried by him has been allowed to
lapse. He owned three farms since he was
elected, all of which have been sold under
foreclosure proceedings. The home Is
unencunlbered except by a small len.
The affairs Of the Office are not in shape
to show what will be the shortage in
trust funds in estates. That a 'considera-
BILE amount of such funds has been mis-
appropriated there is no reason to doubt.
Some shortages are known and an investi-
gat:on will be ordered by the proper
authorities. Probably Bensons salary
as well as the. large sums he made in the
Office have been largely spent in gambling
houses and the dives of East Grand
Forks. s. @ls

THE KENTUCKY LEGISLATURE
AdjOurns on Learning of Senator Weks-
singers Death.

FRANKFORT, KY, March 9.-When
the house met the galleries and lobbies
were cleared of all but members, the
speaker announcing that he was not
going to have any more intimidation.
The senate adjourned until 11:5O
o'clock, shortly after being called to
order, on account of Senator Weissin-
gers condition, and the house was
voting on a motion of the same kind
when the senator's death was an
nounced.
The republicans were voting nay
until Senator Weissinger's death was
announced, when they changed and
the session was ended at 1880 o'clock.
A mere formal joint session was held.
The vacancy caused by the death of
Senator Weissinger can not be filed in
time for the successor to take his seat.
The law requires eight days notice for
such election, and the legislature ends
by constitutional Limitation March II.
Senator Weissinger had been i'll but
a few days. What was first thought to
be very bad cold developed into pneu-
monia, and he died at 1880 a. m. in his
room at the Capital hotel. He was a
prominent Louisville lawyer.
