FROM MAY 1 TO JUNE 24

l Including the receipt for $83 found yesterday the total amount due ths city was therefore $2,91O.79. Thers was balance of $238, reducing the de felt to $2,672.29.
 AS soon as this showing was made 2 meeting of the mayor, council, the bondsmen and MT. Long was held al the Hotel Adams. Everything was done with the greatest formality. The mayor made demand upon MT. Long for the balance due the city. The collector replied that he did not have it, had never had it and could not get it. He repeated what he had ire quently said before, that he could not understand the situation He could no. imagine how the deficit had oc- cured and believed that he has been systematically robbed, but by whom O; how he was unable to conjecture.
 The members of the council then di- rected the mayor to begin criminal proceedings against the collector. He went directly before Justice JohnstCne and swore out a warrant against Mir. Long, charging him with appropriation of the city funds. MT. Long in the meantime remained at the hotel, where the warrant was served on him few minutes later by Constable Frank Me Clintock The constable went back to the sheriff's office, followed at some distance by MT. Long and the mayor. After brief conversation in the of flee the collector was locked up. He was badly broken up and had little to say of the painful events of the last four days. He was visited by friends in the afternoon and early evening.
 The council also directed the re- moval of MT. Long from office and the appointment of W. c. Foster.
 The bondsmen of MT. Long, who were seen yesterday, spoke in high terms of the moderate, but business like course pursued by Mayor Adams in the unfortunate matter This ap- proval is shared by the leading demo- crats of the city, who admit that a less fair man than the mayer would have tried to turn the case to political account During the investigation of the books while the deficit was piling up day iy day and even after the re- port had been submitted to him, the mayor made known the discovery only to the bondsmen, for he desired to give the collector at the proper time an op- portunity to make an explanation and avoid the scandal of publicity. At the same time he neglected no measure necessary to secure tie city against lOss

FARMERS SHOULD BE HAPPY.

During the fiscal year ending with June the amount of money received for agricultural products from the rest of the world by the United States will exceed $500, ,000, ,000, and may reach s835, 100000. Never before have they reached the $800,O00,00O mark, and only twice have they passed the sT00.- 000,0 line, the fortunate years being 1881 and 1892.
 Compared with the last fiscal year the increase in exports of agricultural products will be fully $150, ,000, and compared with the preceding year the increase will be over $250, 1000. GOO, while the total vii be nearly 50 per cent in excess of that of the fiscal year 1895. Breadstuffs lead with nearly $1,000,000 for each business day and the total more than $100,000,000 in eX- cess of last years exports of bread stuffs. In provisions, which embraces beef, hog and dairy products the totals reach $160,000,00 a considerable in- crease over last year.
 Live beef is gaining greatly in pop ularity with the foreign customers, and the exports have increased materially while beef, either fresh, canned or salted, not only shows no increase, but in most cases there has been falling off.
 It is still too early to speak with as surance of the probable requirements of Europe during the coming year. but the outlook is hopeful.
 The remarkable showing made by our export trade in agricultural pro- ducts and the hopeful outlook cannot fail to have a most important bearing upon the material prosperity of this country-Data from Scientific Ameri- can.

they will not allow sentiment to
interfere with the expression OF
their honest convictions.
In Oregon last July. the ad-
ministra,ion republicans carried
the state by 10, 500 majority,
while Mckinney carried it by a.
900. Oregon is silver state as
much as Colorado, and if there IS
any virtue in the silver sentiment
Oregon would reap the benefits as
well as this state. The issue was
made direct and without the least
possible equivocation, the platform
OF the republicans being opposed
to the free coinage Of silver and
all other schemes looking to the
debauchment OF the currency and
Reputation OF debt. The result
was republican victory such as
the state never before experienced
We believe that such a victory is
in store for the republicans OF
Colorado.

SHAKESPEARE AND FUSION.


the question at Colorado Springs
last week Whether II was better
to suffer the slings and arrows OF
outrageous defeat by going italone
and losing all the pie, or to take
up the silver sentiment against a
sea OF gold bugs, and by opposing,
try to end them at one fell swoop.
Twas a consummation dcvoutly
to be wished, but ah, 1t caused a
thousand heart-aches and thous
and natural shocks that flesh is
heir to.
The native hue Of resolution was
sicklied DER with the pale cast OF
though, for three long, weary days
ere the popnlists decided to gather
unto themselves the spurns and
contumely that patient merit of the
unworthy takes. The democratic
enterprises Of great pith and mo-
ment were finally accomplished,
and the populists and Teller faction
OF the silver republicans were
gathered into the democratic fold
to die, to sleep, perchance to
dream OF vanished glories and
associations.
The democrats did not gather
the entire aggregation into the
fold, however. The major por-
tion of the silver republicans real
being utilized as a trap to catch
the unwary voter and land him in
the democratic party. The men
who have for years affiliated with
the republican party refused to
allow the democrats to capture
them body and soul by an appeal
to their silver sentiment. Senator
Teller's effort to deliver the silver
republican party into democratic
hands was foiled by bolt Of the
men who readily realized the sinis-
ter intentions OF the democratic
leaders. The democrats wanted
the Offices, and cared little for the
methods utilized in securing the
necessary followers. A fusion is
usually an alliance for Office and
revenue only, principles cut very
little figure.
We honestly believe there will
be surprise party in Colorado
this fall, and the triple alliance of
silver fusionists will be the victims
of it. The vest pocket voters will
be numerous-the men who have
very little to say and vote their
honest convictions. The rank and
file Of the populists are not salts
fed with their deal, neither are a
large majority Of the silver re-
publicans, and it would not be
much Of surprise to many of us
20 see Colorado return to her nor
NAL state once more.

pjcious than now for a republican
victory. The voters who desire
