The report of the bank examiner of Kan
sas gives out the impression that the
state is not doing so much bleeding Just
now, but, is busy making money and put
ting itein the banks. The deposits in the
private banks now amount to S22, OOO,O 900.
which, added to the deposits in national
banks. run up to about $4,000, 900. This is
an Increase of 100000 over a year ago.
Besides putting so much money into the
banks, the farmers have been paying off
their mortgages and other debts.

he adopted a unique method of keeping his
aDpointees up 20 the mark in the per-
Torrance of their duties He required
that every one of them should sign a res

A Chicago dispatch says Mrs. I,eutgert
has been seen again. This time the. per
son who saw her is absolutely positive
with regard to her identity. It will be
remembered that during the trial several
persons reported having. seen her alive af-
ter the date of her alleged death. Lieut.
CERT declared her to be alive, and only
having fun" with him. In that event,
it would seem that her appetite for humor
ought to be stated by this time. She ought
to come out of the woods.

With regard to the change of plans of
the government in the matter of the sale
of the Union Pacific railroad, the New
York Journal declares, in big black letters
running across the top of the first page,
THE Journal has Blocked the $4,000, 900
Union Pacific Steal while in equally hys-
terical manner the World declares, across
its front page, and with the aid of both
big type and illustrations, The Union Pa
cifc Deal Smashed by the Worldr' The
facts seem to be that the arrangement,
as it now stands, was perfected before
either of the newspapers took the matter
up. They learned there was something
in the wind, discovered what it was, pub
lished it, and then took credit to them
selves for bringing il about. They have
managed to find a new excuse for blowing
their own trumpets, and hence they are
happy. We have. about arrived at the
place where the new yellow journalism
not only breaks jails and manufactures
robbery and murder stories to be printed
in its own columns, but TO judge from it's
claims, runs the courts, the railroads and
the state and federal governments.

ZIG Gam join TeIIer.
From the Nashville American Dem).

The fact about Senator Wolcott is that
he is in a desperate fix politically. Inter
national bimetallism is his only hope. His
home Is in Colorado, where no other fnan-
cial idea is tolerated except free silver.
He remained with the republican party in
the last campaign, in opposition TO his col
league Senator Teller, on the promise of
accomplishing international action, and
since he has failed in this there doesn't
appear to be any hope for his future.

The New York Journal of Commerce
draws attention TO the interesting facts,
as they appear from the official figures,
that the number of employees on the rail-
ways Of the United States is as great as
the number of men that the federal gov
eminent ever had under arms at one time
during the civil war, and that the number
of killed on the railroads each year would
constitute the casualties of a great battle
that would create mourning all over the
country. A great many of the fatalities on
the railroads, the Journal of Commerce
points out, result from carelessness; and
carelessness will continue to cause deaths,
no matter the number or safety appliances
which may be adopted. At the same time.
it is gratifying to know hat low bridges"
are rapidly disappearing, and improved
materials and appliances are constantly
decreasing the dangers of the rail.

New Markets Must Be Had.
From Louisville Courier-Journal Dem

The Central and South Americans like
u.s. but they will not buy of us unless we
make it to their interests. We must also
consult their convenience. Formerly
there was some talk to the effect that the
home market was sufficient for US. but
many American manufacturers have freed
themselves from that delusion. The neces-
sity of new markets grows more inpera-
tive every year, and our people must study
the best methods of acquiring them.

Henry E. Bailey in Trouble

A special telegram from Springfield,
ILL.,, of August 10, contains the follow
ing, which will be interesting to many
acquaintances of the party concerned:
'Gov. Tanner has honored requisition
of Gov. Lee, of South Dakota, for the
return of Henry E. Bailey, wanted in
Pennington county on the charge of
embezzlement as assignee of the funds
of the Rapid Valley Horse Ranch COM

the switch board at the telephone ex-
change was set on fire, and the West
ern Union instruments threw lurid
light into the streets which ATTRACTED
the attention of people in time to avert
much damage.
Toe sights down along the creek
bank are inclined to make one heart
sick. There are broken remnants of
furniture, buggies, wagons, lumber,
railroad ties, rails and timbers and up
rooted trees. The banks are strewn
with rubbish and shrubs and trees are
bent and broken, spelling for the pres
ent the great beauty that was so con-
spicuous along the stream.
There are some who want to know if
this flood wasn't the ''wave of prosper
ity." We can't see that it looks that
way, but one of the first persons we
met Saturday morning after the flood
was populist and he was congratu.
lating this community upon the wash
out, for he said it would .give employ
ment to lots of men for some time
and circulate more money!" and he
therefore thought it was good thing
really wave of prosperity.
The Burlington got the track pass
able into the Union depot Tuesday fore
noon, and have since been putting on
the finishing touches and repairing
the Cold brook siding. They had a
rapid crew and made swift progress.
The Elkhorn folks suffered the loss
of eight bridges and quite distance
of track. but General Superintendent
Hughes and Division Superintendent
Harris were ON the ground early and
rushed the work in great shape, get
ting the line into the city Wednesday,.
The bridge in the city limits was re-
paired by Tuesday forenoon-only one
bent being taken out. They repaired
what seemed to be great damage in a
surprisingly short time.
The work of clearing out the plunge
was begun early Saturday and the rub
bish and railroad bridges were out of
there in short order. There was about
three feet of mud in the bottom, which
gave the greatest trouble and men
have been at work all the week scrap
ing it out. 1t is expected that it will
DO thoroughly cleaned this week and
ready for the plungers. Work of re-
pairing the building is going on rapid
ly and it is completely enclosed now,
though in rather rough state. The
result will probably be that the plunge
will be thoroughly repaired and over
hauled and put in good shape as
soon as the season is over, possibly
making it more attractive and better
for next year than it would have been
had the floods not come.

"RATTLESNAKE" JONES BRINGS
A HANDFUL OF RICH
ROCK TO CASPER.
But His Story is Taken With Many
Grains OF Allowance-The Lost Cab

nutty-Killed a Bear-Many Inter-
esting Items From Over the State.

"Rattlesnake" Jones came into town
on Monday from that part OF the state
which is known as the Lost Cabin Mine,
and displayed several specimens OF ore
which run heavy with pure gold. and
which Jones claims he found lying on
the surface. He also claimed that there
was plenty of the same kind OF ore at
the same place from where he had taken
the specimens. but he refused to tell
anything about the property. The speci-
mems that Jones had have the appear
ance OF having been blasted from a rock,
and his story about having found the
ore on the surface and leaving more of
1t behind, sounds extremely ''fishy" to
say the least. for a man with common
judgment would not have come nearly
a hundred miles to town. bringing a
handful of rich specimens OF ore with
him and leaving plenty more behind. In
this day and age when a man finds any
thing as rich as Jones claims to have
found, he would have carried a zach full
OF the ore to town II it made a hump
on his back the remainder OF his life

THEIR PRAYERS GRANTED.

Engineer Harry Wilmot, accompani-
ed by his daughter June, returned from
his farm near Woodbine. Ia. on the
morning train. Mr.. Wilmot says the
farmers OF Iowa are in high feather this
year. Their crops have been exception
ally good and prices are ruling high.
Some OF the corn is being injured by
the dry weather which set in some three
weeks ago. but this will only apply to
corn which was planted late. When
Mr.. Wilmot arrived in Iowa all were
praying that the wet weather would
cease, as they feared corn would be kept
green till injured by early trosts. The
weather clerk shut off on the rain. and
now they are kicking themselves that
they did not wait another week before
registering their prayers. Mr.. Wilmot's
crops were unusually good and he has
no complaint TO make. He will resume
his old run in the Sixth district pas
senger service, which has been filled by
Engineer Farley Mathison during his
absence.
