Found Gold.

This is Sam Davis latest steamboat:
Yesterday afternoon Jacob Muller, in
letting out water from a bath tub
discovered several bright shining
particles in the bottom Of tub. He
gathered them up and took them to
the Bullion Bank. They proved to
be gold, and in all he got six bits out
of the tub and he thinks a good deal
escaped. He was quite excited
over his find and began to trace che
matter up. He ascertained that Bob
Logan had come IN from the Como
district where he had been exploring
tunnel and had reached town cover
ed with pay dirt from the mine. He
took bath at Muller's and left the
gold in tub. When Bob was told of
the find in the bath tub he started
for Como to make further investiga.
tons. 1t looks as if he had cut the
gold bearing ledge in the tunnel with
out knowing 1t.
He thinks Muller should refund the
money he paid for his bath, but Null
Ter can't seq it in that light. He is
considering, however, the proposition
OF allowing min ers from the Como.
district to bathe free of charge or al
least half rates.

Secretary Gage says the demand
for new fractional silver coin is much
greater than the amount coined and
the treasury is compelled to pay out
worn coin, as the amount of new
coins nufactured has been esti.
mated by the appropriations made for
the payment OF loss on recoinage Of
such coin. The secretary wants
authority to use silver bullion in the
treasury in the coinage of subsidiary
silver coin and to recoin all worn out
and abraded fractional silver coin.
There is now in the treasury about
100000 subsidiary silver coin unfit
for circulation, ...... ...

HOPE FOR PENNSYLVANIA.

Mathew Stanley Quay, the Republi-
can boss of the great State of Pennsyl-
vania, which he has come to regard
and which is generally regarded, il
the light of a pocket rotten borough
to be disposed OF by him at his sweet
sovereign will, is pretty near the
length of his tether even in that COM
monwealth where he appears to own
in fee simple all but a few men, who
compose the Democratic party there.
At last the right of Mathew Stanley
Quay to do with the funds of the Key
stone State as he pleases is questioned.
Not only that but the sacred person
of Mathew Stanley Quay has been in
dicted by the grand jury on five counts
for specializing and loaning for pur-
poses of speculation to his friends and
relatives and otherwise fraudently US
ing the money Of the State.
At last the sovereign right of The
boss is being boldly questioned in the
courts whether or not he may run
the State as he pleases and use its
treasury and the money of the people
as sort of private bank of his own to
be drawn on for his own private pur-
poses and those of his friends and rela-
tives.
This is a long step in advance for
the State of Pennsylvania, marked
advance in the sentiment and civiliza-
ton of the commonwealth that has
hitherto known no ruler but Quay, no
law or code of morals but Quay and
no party but the s. o. p, which stands
for Quay.
Now that the throne of the almighty
boss has been attacked and there is
some chance of him getting into the
Penitentiary, which has long been
yawning for him and his associates,
there is bare possibility that Penn
sylvania may awake from her long
Rip Van Wrinkle sleep of Quayism and
hide-bound partisanism and take her
proper place among the progressive
States of the Union, whose people are
not, like those of Pennsylvania have
SO long been, so wrapt up in one party
they can't correct apparent evils nor
purge their government of open
fraud.
There is yet hope for the State OF
Penn even in the present generation.

HARD headed MIR. CARNEGIE ON
IMPERIALISM

IMPERIALISM.
The astonishing announcement of
Secretary Gage that he had been con-
verted to the administrations policy
of Imperialism, has called forth many
rebukes and reproaches from sensible
Republicans, among them Mr. Andrew
Carnegie, whose views are those of a
man of wide and practical experience
and knowledge. Mr.. Carnegie takes
Secretary Gage on his own ground,
namely, that of commercial expansion,
and declares:
l. That the acquisition of the Philip
pines would bring us into the zone of
wars and rumOrs of wars" and thus,
without any compensation of added COM
merce of value, would unsettle trade
and decrease it.
?. That foreign nations would not per-
nit us TO inclose our acquisitions within
our high-tariff walls without the angriest
protests.
8 That the laborng masses would be
enormously burdened and at the same
time would be brought into unequal com
petition with cheap labor
These are premises which cannot be
disputed
Moreover there is a constitutional
aspect of the case which prevents us
from lawfully taking in these remote
and barbarous islands without first
| amending the fundamental law of the
land.
But why do we want them? A few

it is remarkable thing that Gov.
Atkinson has neglected to publish his
opinion on the Getzendanner and Pier
son cases. The point of law involved
is of the utmost Importance and calls
for an elaborate and exhaustive expla-
nation of his action by which on the
face of the thing the plain mandate of
the Constitution, the fundamental law,
is disobeyed.
The Constitution has been quoted at
length in these columns. Its provis-
ion on this point is plain, direct and
mandatory. 1t declares beyond bubble
that these two members, Pierson and
GetZendanner, who accepted commits
sio-s in the army, thereby at once va
Gated their seats in the State Senate
as if they had died. There is no ques-
tion on this point. The Constitution
declares that these men cannot hold
their seats in the State Senate and
also other lucrative Offices under the
State or the United States.
Hence. their seats plainly being va

WHAT IMPERIALISM MEANS

Mr. Mckinley, in his message to
Congress, will favor the British colon
ial policy il dealing with our new ac-
QUESTIONS. And to back this up he will
also ask standing army Of 100, 600
men and a proportionate navy, and, of
course, MORE REVENUE. When we
start in to compete with military Eu-
rope on the same line we must, of
course, adopt the European method
and abandon the American method as
founded on the Declaration of hide
pendence, the Constitution of the
United States and the wisdom of the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., Jefferson, Mon
roe, Jackson-by which we have grown
great and strong and kept free and in
dependent of embodiment with the old
world and its mighty troubles
This new order of things can never
be conducted under our present form
of free government by the people. II
we adopt the imperial policy we must
also adopt measures to have those in
authority WELD imperial power For
that is the only way in which an i'm
perial government can be conducted
And to this end the people, hitherto
supreme, must be held in leash. The
risk cannot be run Of having the gov
eminent change hands and policies
every four years, or of Congress
clashing with the executive on vital
points. All this must be changed. We
must have strong government. In
other words we must have an imperial
government at home as we'll as abroad.
The people must be subjected, shorn Of
their governmental rights and privi-
leges, popular rule overthrown and
that Of an aut0cratic imperial power
substituted.
How do the American people relish
the prospect Of Imperialism? The
picture is not overdrawn. These
things must come sooner or later il
the imperial policy of the administra-
ton and its advisors is carried out.
And the party Of force bill" legisla-
ton will not be sQueamish in carrying
out that policy.

cant, how could the Governor lawfully
escape his plain duty to I'LL them
in the lawful way? BY what right in
law does he shoulder onto the Senate q
duty plainly his own?
These are pertinent, weighty cues
lions which the people of this State
have been waiting for the Governor to
answer in a public opinion on these
cases.
Although promised two months ago
this opinion has not yet been given
out and it is now stated that the
Governor will not publish his opinion
in this all-important matter.
WHY?
Is it because he has been ADVISED
AGAINST DOING SO BY REPUBLI-
CAN PARTY LEADERS?
Is it because these Republican lead
ers, right or wrong, purpose to keep
out of their seats the Democrats elected
to fill these vacancies, and do not want
a public statement from the Governor
which would bring them face to face
with the plain law?
Is it because these two seats may be
needed to control the Legislature on
Joint ballot, which means United
States Senator?
Here, indeed, is a state of affairs for
the sober contemplation of the people
of this State.
The Constitution is deliberately set
at nought, the plain law overturned,
and defied, and no explanation offered!
Could arrogant revolutionary parti-
sanship go farther?
