HARRY ENGLAND, "a A. West.
A Peculiar Story.

A tall sallow faced man wearing a
new cheap suit entered the law Office
Of one of the leading Hutchinson at
torneys one day the latter part of last
week and introduced himself as "
brother Of the dead Governor Goebel
Of Kentucky, He explained that he
was shadowing q man who he knew
to be one OF the conspiratOrs, and
wanted to know IL he should have him
arrested, whether the lawyer could
get a requisitiOn hOnored by Governor
Stanley. He seemed at loss to know
whether to arrest him or try TO follow
him on into Colorado where he felt
sure requsitlon would be honored.
He used good English, and spoke
intelligently Of prominent men and
events In Kentuckey and the sad affair
that has given the State 80 much un.
desirable notOriety. He informed
the lawyer that the man he wanted
was in Turon and he thought he could
get him anytime he wanted him. lie
however spoke rather deferentially
ofGovernor Taylor, saying he believed
that lie was too bread a man to have
anything to do with the conspiracy,
He said further he had seen Taylor
several times since the assassination
and would have killed him had he be-
lieved him guilty. The attorney is at
some loss to know just what to make
of him-whether to believe his story or
consider him a crank.

Carl Mitchell pead.

The GAZETTE is panied very much tO
announce the death Of Carl Mitchell OF
Langdon who was the populist and dem
ocratic candidate for register Of deeds
last fall. AS a testimony of his popu-
larity 1t is only necessary to say that
he ran very much ahead Of his ticket
and received much larger vote than
any other man opposing the republi-
cans. Mr.. Mitchell has long been Q
sufferer, and his aflllctlon bafIled all
the physicians. 1t seemed to be q giving
way of veins and blood vessels especi-
Alyi in his eXtremeties. Most OF the
timefor six years be has had several
lilCgrcs upon his feet and limbs.
His case has been written up and il.
lustrated in many Of the large
medical journals Of the United States.
Once before he came near dying from
the bursting of a blood vessel in his
stomach. He had lately been feeling
better than for a long time and the
ulcer had nearly healed, But one
day last week as we understand he at
tempted to lift a sack Of flour, and the
exertion caused a rupture Of blood
vessel in the ston ach from which he
shortly bled to death.
Mr.. Mitchell was constant but a
patient sufferer, lie was an energet-
tic man, determined to make a living
whatever the difficulties. He fought
a brave fight and many are the friends
who honor his life, and deplore his
death.

Council Meeting.

The city council met again Monday
night and transacted considerable i'm
portant business. One thing that was
done was the passage of an ordnance
license tax of sl2OO per
year on wholesale companies having
headquarters elsewhere, and main
tanning branch houses here Tor distrl
buting purposes. There are said to
be seven or eight of these such as the
Standard OIL Company, Anheuser
Busch, etc. some of whom would rather
pay 500 per month than give up their
business here. These films have not
been paying any tax here but sent
to the county treasurer that
taxes on their goods here are paid else.
where.
The water and light committee wes
given complete power to make terms
with the light company.
We are informed that the city
vaults have been searched carefully
for the missing warrants and they are
not there. Ex-Clerk Underwood is
quoted as saying they were Cancelled,
but there seems to be no evidence of
that sort. The investigating commit
tee say they are unable to find even
the numbers Of warrants.
The council also repealed the resolu-
tion of 1895 authorizing the issue Of
time warrants which seems to be a
for a bond.

CORRUPTION FUND.

They viii keep In mind that the
men behind this are such men as Mr..
Cleveland, Mr.. Carlisle, Mr.. Whit
ney, Mr.. Villas, working in perfect
accord with Mr.. Sherman, Mr.. Nc
KinIey, Mr.. Foraker and Mr.. Depew
all in the same ring and all gov
erned by a single purpose and that is
to make the bond-holders and eastern
national bankers the financial dicta-
tors of this great American republic.
When the plain people shall see that,
we shall expect that the revulsion
from it will do Mr.. Bryan more good
than the present intentions can do
him good, but it is hard fight. The
men behind Mr.. Mckinley will spend
if necessary $1O,OOO,O 900 in a corrup-
ton fund, and that would have been
sufficient to have elected any man
president in any campaign before this
since 1865. We believe the people
are too much aroused to be Influenced
by that fund this year and we count
with more certainty every day upon
the triumph of the right.

UNCLE SANS MANY SERVANTS.
CWashington Letter.l

Nothing brings out more clearly the
growth of governmental functions than
a comparison of the latest issue of the
Official Register of the officials and
employees in the civil, military and
naval service. with any earlier volume
of the same kind. The growth in pop
ulation of lake cities has been remark
able, but it is not a circumstance be-
side the growth of the federal service.
These volumes are in reality lists of
names Volume l contains the names
of all of Uncle Sam servants, except
those in the postal establishment, which
is reserved for volume 2, that estab-
Hshment employing about as many per
sons as all the other branches of the
government combined. The Official
Register, il should be noted, contains
the names of commissioned officers of
the army and navy, but not the private
soldiers.
To observe the growth of these vol
umes one need not go back to Andrew
Jackson's time, or the second Adams
administration, when the Official Reg
lister was about as large as a New Eng
land primer; nor is it necessary to go
back to the civil war period, or to 1870
or 1880 or 1890 to see great changes. The
contrast between the volumes issued
July 1, 1893 and those issued July l.
ume published in 1893, containing every
thing but the postOffice, contained
about 10000 names.
The corresponding volume of 1899, six
years later, contains nearly 50 900
names. a gain of about 40 per cent in
six years. Students of statistics might
with propriety compute how many
years it would be at this rate before
everybody would be working for the
United States government Nor was
the volume for 1898 the result of condi-
lions which would have been regarded
as frugal. 7 < places had been provided
by the so-called ''billion-dOllar con-
gress' of the Harrison administration,
which then evoked much criticism.
The volume just issued is doubtless
Swelled somewhat by war and colonial
conditions, but on the other hand il
contained no census establishment for
this had not been organized July l.
1889. whereas in 1893 there were many
pages. of employees in this branch of
the service
