cupy the pursers cabin on that fine new
vessel. He thus transfers from a British
ship to an American vessel. This Is an
unusual honor to be bestowed upon for

The letter from Rideout, Smith &

as follows:
THE Public Administrator Of this
| (Butte) County, has In his possession

\ George Manson. The enclosed
clipping from our town paper an
nounces the death of one known by the
name Of George Manson. on whose re-
mains the above mentioned passbook
was found. Also an account check book

AT the request Of the Public Admin
istrator we write you to give any In
formation you may have In connection
with Mr.. Manson's affairs
The clipping reads as follows:
George Manson, a gentleman VINO
has been in Oroville some two or three
weeks, died very suddenly yesterday at
the Union Hotel. He was suffering
from throat trouble in the forenoon,
and DR.. Karsner was called. The doc
tor found him with a very badly swol-
N nd h i'm
which the unfortunate man used. Late
in the afternoon he was heard walk
ing and gasplng and the doctor was
called. He arrived too late to be of as
s.stance. as the man had suffocated as
a result of the swelling In the throat.

pretty rapid gait, but during the past
few days had not been drinking. 1t is
said that since coming here he went
through with nearly a thousand dol

George Manson disappeared from Ho
nolulu several months ago and 70
many weeks his exact whereabout

ploy of the Republican he drank heavi
ly and did not return to his home. Fl

before the steamer sailed. AT the Ha
waiian Hotel he registered under an as
sumed name for two nights and the

had swallowed him.
In San Francisco he was seen by sev
eral Honolulans. His baggage was ser
down to one of the steamers bound fc
Honolulu but Manson did not show u
on the boat. Since then he is known
have lived at a rapid gait and h
demise at Oroville was undoubtedly II
result of his drinking habits. 1t Is r.

THE TRADE DOLLARS.
4 Trick by Which the Peoples Faith
in Silver Money Was
Shaken.

At the time the country was placed
on the single gold basis he haa engi-
neered a scheme for the coinage of
trade dollars" These were not stand
ard dollars, but weighed II. grains
more than the standard dollars and
were made legal tender to a limited
amount in this country. The ostensible
purpose in coming trade dollars was
to promote our commerce in the far
east by providing a silver coin that
woul1 attract the fancy of the silver
using peoples in the orient. The real
purpose, however, may have been to
shak. the faith of the people in silver
for money purposes. For, while the
coins found an eager acceptance in the
cast, they likewise found ready favor
and circulation at home; and after
many millions were in actual circula-
tion in our country the limited legal
tender quality was taken away and con-
siderable pains were taken to inform
the people that the trade dollars were
not real money, but were only worth
their bullion value. And they soon
dropped to that M. Mawry Garrett, in
Money.

How Far Noises Travel.

When the alkali works at ST. Helens,
England were blown up by the eXplos-
sion of so tons of chlorate of potash,
the noise was heard at MARBLE, % miles
away. At the battle of Corunna 1900
barrels of gunpowder blew up, caus-
ing the ground to rock for miles. The
blast at He'll Gate, New York. 100 tons
of dynamite, was perceived 1873 miles
away by the vibrations of mercury.
The shock of the dynamite explosion,
so tons, at Johannesburg, was felt at
Pretoria, 33 miles distant. The naval
magazine of Lagouban, Toulon, which
blew up March last, was heard at Nice,
81 miles distant, and even at Fentimig-
liza, in Italy, 100 miles distant The
country for radius of nearly two miles
was blown bare, houses knocked 10
pieces and trees uprooted or bent into

POWER OF MONEY.
Prof. Bemis Illustrates the Methods
of Wall Street Financiers-
Rc.dy-Made Panfcs

1t is an old saying that money
makes money" This fact explains tht
anxiety of the capitalists to have con
press pass the gold bill, which viii
strengthen immensely the money
| power.
People generally do not understand
the method by which money is EN-
ployed to make money in these day:
of trusts, syndicates and monopolies
and therefore the following explana
ton by Prof. E. w. Bemis will prov,
enlightening.
Referring to the recent $13S, S,C00,O COZ
squeeze" in stock values on Wal
street, Prof Bemis says:
'"The explanation is simple. A few O.
our richest men could not buy valuable
properties al their own terms until tn,
owners were cramped. One case know
to the writer will illustrate how 1t wa!
done The owner of some mining stock
whom we will call A, refused to sell fol
$500 a share, since dividends at $40 have
recently been earned and paid. A is worth
several million dollars, but, like the aver
age man of means, had placed his stocl
at the banks as collateral for loans to sus
formed that far richer man or syndi.
cate of men, whom we will call B. has
also considerable of this mining stock, but
unless it can secure AS interest immedi-
ately for $3.50 it will offer it's own shares
the next morning for $1G0, so as to scare
the holders of AS collateral, and force
him into bankruptcy if unable instantly
to redeem his loans in acsh. A naturally
sells, and certain giant monopoly, well
known in America, has won, but not be-
fore its preliminary shaking of the plum
tree has sufficiently frightened investors
10 set interest soaring"
Imagine the power delegated to the
City National bank, of New York (the
Standard Oil bank) by the secretary of
the United States treasury when he de-
posted $24,000,000 at one time and $14,-
100000 at another-and that power is
but drop in the bucket" compared
to the power that will be conferred on
the Standard Oil bank and Wall street
money power by the passage of the
gold bill.
Prices of stocks will then be forced
up or down at the will of the banks,
which will at once form a great trust,
and the fact that money makes mon
ey' will be followed by the demonstra-
ton that the holders of money will be
absolute dictators in the world of busi-
ness.-Illinois State Register.

PROPHESYING A REACTION.
Advance of Wages Has Been by No
Means PrOpOrtiOnate to the
Increased Prices.

According to the averages kept by
Bradstreet's prices of commodities iu
this country have risen 80 per cent.
| during the past three years; in other
words. the sound and stable gold dol
lar has lost 30 per cent. of its pur-
chasing power, debts are 80 per cent.
less valuable, and so forth and so on.
Some of the more thoughtful repub-
lican newspapers, in view of this de-
crease in the purchasing power of
gold, are asking themselves whether
commodities can long maintain their
position-whether in the nature OF
things prices can be maintained. A
warning comes from the United States
Investor. a periodical which stands
high. The Investor says that the ex-
ercise of a little common sense will
demonstrate that either commodity
prices must fall or wages and salaries
must rise.
Referring to the rise of 30 per cent.
in prices, the Investor gives sharp de-
nial to the claims of some of the re-
publican organs that there has been a
general rise in wages. There has been
no rise in wages proportionate to the
rise i'll prices. AS the Investor puts
it, while the general level of com.
modify prices has risen 80 per cent.
''as regards a large part of the com.
munity. there has been absolutely nc
increase in income, while in the case
of some there was an increase which
fell far short of the figures represent
| ing the advance in prices To this
the Investor adds: 'These are facts
which cannot be controverted, and the
conclusion is inevitable'
In short, the increase in wages has
not averaged more than ten per cent.
while the increase in general prices
| has been such that the dollar of the
wage Garner buys 30 per cent. less
than it did three years ago. But il
should be borne in mind that Brad
streets average represents wholesale
prices and is controlled and kept down
by a number of articles that do not
enter into daily consumption. Let any
head of family or housekeeper com

| grocery stores with those prevalent
three years ago and it will be found
that the increase ranges anywhere
from SO to 100 per cent.
We wonder that the advocates of the
gold standard have not taken advan
| tage of the situation to say: tEYoJ
say it is just as we told you it would
be if you had high prices; you have
| to pay more for the necessaries of lif,
and your ability to pay has not KEEP
pace with the increase in prices Blu
they say no such thing. They have
deserted, bag ard baggage, the in
trenchments which they occupied il
1896. They said then that high prices
and deprecated currency were bat
things for the wage earners, but nov
that this condition has actually beer
reached under the gold standard, they
actually gloat over it and are proud
of it.-Atlanta Constitution.

Clabaugh presiding OF the murder Of
Robert Turner. on December % last. The
jury which heard the testimony FOR and
against the defendant did not qualify its
