AN ECHO FROrt YORKTOWN

 liens With Great Britain.

The ail-engrossing subject, not the war itself but the development of cor dial relations between Great Britain and the United States, the most benei- lcent product Of the war, was under dis cussion between two old globe trotters in an uptown club, when the elder ot them remarked:
 You remember our celebration 0: the battle of Yorktown, down in Vir- ginia, about fifteen years ago? Were you there? No? Well, I was. It was sort of centennial glorifcation. if you remember, over the surrender of Cornwallis to Washington-the last great incident of the revolutionary war. President Arthur was alive then--''
 And one Of the worthiest of our presidents, he was, too," the other in- terjected. "and though he never re- ceived credit for it, the first practical champion of civil service reform among them"
 Right you are. We'll. it was the last day of the celebration, and the proceedings were drawing to a close, when there was general call for James, G. Blaine. The crowd wanted a speech, but instead of speech Blaine lust read. in as impressive a manner as he could-and that was very impres- sive, indeed-an order by the presi- dent directing the army and navy to salute the British flag. That was all. But it was enough. The crowd quickly caught tho idea: though we were eel ebrating a victory over Great Britain 1t was a victory of a century ago, and in that time all tle old animosities had disappeared, and they broke forth iii a mighty roar of cheers, which mingled with the booming Of the cannon, and showed that the president had judged the feeling of the people alright. It has seemed to me ever since that from that event began the growth of more cor dial relations between the United States and England. But wbo could have thought. even then, that the two nations would so soon be standing to- gether, united and invincible. agains; the world'"-N. v. Commercial Ad- vertiser.

 The controversy now raging between he regent of Lippe and the emperor of Germany is assuming very serious pro- portions. The kaisers uncle, Alfred, luke Of Coburg (who is a son of Queen Victoria); the grand duke of Hesse,
 who is brother-in-law of the czar; Prince Louis of Bavaria, eldest son of l the regent of that kingdom, and heir to the throne: the aged king of Saxony | the king Of Wurtemburg, and the blind
 grand duke of Mecklenberg-S -Strelitz, as

 Indeed the duke of Coburg has even permitted himself to be interviewed by a newspaper editor on the subject.
 Tn almost each case the affront has consisted in fragrant lack of courtesy on the part of the Prussian generals and officers to the rulers and to the members of the reigning houses of the states upon which they had been foist- ed by the Berlin army department.
 It is naturally disagreeaHle for the sovereign of a country to have in command of his own troops, and in his own dominions, Prussian officers, who not only decline to receive any orders from him, on the ground that they can only receive their instructions from the kaiser, but who likewise refuse to concede even the most ordinary forms of courtesy to the local reigning house, thus iniuring the prestige of the lat ter in the eyes of it's subjects.
 The matter has reached such a pass that concerted action on the part of the various non-Prussian rulers of Germany against the kaiser is now being organized with view of resist ing his usurpations of authority, and

THE LA SAL DISTRICT.

The Mining Reporter of Denver has a very interesting article from one of it's correspondents in the La Sal noun tains of Utah, from which we take the following extracts:
 There is probably 10 new mining section in the western country of which there is so little known as the La Sal district, bordering on the west ern part of Colorado. Many contend that this promising section of country belongs in greater part to Utah, but as yet no Utah men have shown a dis position to develop it's various re- sources. In fact, there are no class of miners and prospectors developing and exploring this section but Colo rado men.
 The La Sal range proper is divided into what is known as the north and south divisions, separated by a low pass called Geyser pass.
 Very little prospecting has been done in the south division, yet one of the biggest copper mines of the coun- try is being developed there, the Big Indian property, recently purchased by Ed Loose and others of Provo and Salt
 
 King, two well known San Juan, Col orado, mining men. There is a big country between Geyser Pass and the south end of the mountain, and from reports, some rich gold and copper veins are being discovered"
 GOLD WELD OF PLACER MINES
 A paper recently read before the Col orado miners bureau on Gold Yield of Placer Mines brings out some mo- ticeable statistics coinciding with some former statements in this paper re- garding the large percentage of the worlds yield produced from placer mines. The paper referred to goes further and claims that more than 80 per cent of the worlds supply of gold has been taken from placer ground. Some definite statistics were furnished compiled from official reports, which tended to corroborate the claim. In those reports Russia is credited with an annual placer production amount ing to S20 1000 ,000 Some of the figures seem to be exaggerated: for instance Africa appears as having yielded a total of $553 000 900 in placer gold; Japan. $500. .G00,0G0: Australia.

I'VE MUST TURN THE RASCALS OUT AND
TAKE A LOOK AT THE BOOKS.

In the year 1890 Wake county had a
Republican official who had been in of
fee since boyhood and had defeated ev
cry man who had opposed him until many
men thought the wisest policy was to
let him stay in office and try to elect
the balance of the ticket. There were
other Democrats. however, who believed
that the true policy was to have an ex
animation of the affairs of that office
to see whether it was run on business
principles or on Republican principles.
One morning IA Raleigh newspaper,
quoting from Vice President Hendricks
famous speech in 1888, I'VE must
turn the rascals out and take a look at
the books demanded that this official
should be defeated so that the people
could take Il look at the books. The
editorial created great CONSERVATION in
the Republican ranks the official in ques-
ton was furious and poured out the walls
of his wrath on the head of the editor
in all his speeches throughout the coun-
ty, and the fight was waged on the prop
osition, Lets take Il look at the books"
The officer, who got so mad at the sug-
gestion that the taxpayers had Il right
to see his public books, was defeated be-
cause the people believed that man
who kept his books straight would be
glad of scrutiny. When the time came
for the official to turn over the office to
his successor, he quietly retired, took
train that carried him out of the State,
and judgement was obtained for $1,000
for the money of widows and orphans
which. had disappeared.
History will repeat itself.
A few days ago Hon. +. NJ. Simmons,
ecutive Committee, addressed a polite
note to the superintendent of the peni-
tertiary and the commissioner of agri-
culture making certain inquiries about
matters of which the humblest taxpayer
in the State is entitled to know fully.
TO show that he made no improper or
unwarranted demands, we publish his
letters in full in today's paper. No sooner
had these letters been received by the
parties by whom they were addressed
than it enraged every official connected
with the penitentiary and the agricul-
tural department Mr.. Simmons could
not have made them half as mad
if he had offered them some personal
indignity. They fumed and they ragged,
and swore in their wrath. The letter
was presented by Superintendent New
borne to the directors of the penitentiary
and it put that body all in Il futter.

We expect TO find out all the facts as
speedily as possible and will print them.
In the meantime we repeat what we have
often said, that the management of the
penitentiary under Democratic rule has
been worthy of commentator, economi-
cal and wise. Indeed in the year 1896
the penitentiary had gotten to the point
of being selfsustainng. The present
State Treasurer, Mr. w. H. Worth, said
in his report of December Goth, 1896.
about the penitentiary:
I'm 1896 only $1,000 has been used of
the State funds over and above the
earnings of the convicts, and had it not
been for the heavy loss occasioned by
the overflow in 1896 there would be
but very little assistance needed from the
State in 1897 and 1898. / think the
management has been very good"
Now it is to be noted that on Decem-
Der Goth. 1896, the State Treasurer said
the pcnitentiary had used during that
ury proper. The fiscal year of the peni-
Tertiary ran to December 31st. Mr.
Worth rs Treasurer of the penitentiary
had in his hands $500 more of peni
Tertiary earnings, and all the debts OF
the year had been entirely paid. So
not only was the pcnitentiary self-sup
porting, but it had made money. But
notwithstanding this excellent showing
if there was any improper action by the
Democratic management, of which we
have no information, we will find out
the truth and lay it before the public.
