A REPRESENTATIVES, CONFESSION.

Representative Underwood, Of Alabama.
has an article in the current issue of the
Forum. entitled THE Corrupting Power of
Public Patronage At the outset Mr.. I'm
derwood takes occasion to stigmatize men
who denounce members of Congress as
guilty Of corruption as blatant revilers Of
the characters of other men," Corrupt
men may be elected to Congress. but the
experience of Mr.. Underwood is that in the
six years he has been in the House he
never heard of a member being influenced
by the use Of money. 1t is probable that
he is very near the fact, since, If there
were such men. they would be KNOWN, just
as the few members of Legislatures who
have the reputation of being interested in
bills for what there is in them for those
who have votes and influence are soon we'll
known in legislative circles and elsewhere.
The corrupting power of patronage of
which Mr.. Underwood complains is the in
fuence which leads congressman to vote
for measures which do not commend them
selves to their judgments in order to secure
official places for constituents. The ad-
ministration has a measure which ii believes
to be important. but which many members
of the administration party do not believe
TO be right. Such members feel that they
cannot ask for patronage so long as they
vote against the administration bill, so that
in the end the most of them vote for the
Presidents bill. This is not an evil which
came with the present administration. but
Mr.. Underwood says it has always existed.
He quotes the Porto Rico bill; he could
have quoted the bill repeating the Sherman
bees supported. as he practically confessed.
to please the President, Mr.. Cleveland.
The candor of Mr.. Underwood in declar-
ing that the administration broke the solid
opposition of the Democracy I. the bill in
creasing the army because ii made a large
number of new army officers is refreshing.
Hostility to a larger army could not with
stand the appeals of the constituents of
Democratic members to vote for the bill in
order that sons might have places. Mr..
Underwood confesses that the represent
alive who can Withstand such appeals is "a
DOlu nan I1t says lndl lnt OlliS DIONlu-
ing for the ST. Louis worlds fair and the
Spanish war-claims commission were de-
feated at first. but were finally passed
when they had been so amended as TO
make the commissions nonpartisan. He
might have added that the Republican
measures relative to Cuba and the Philip
pines would have been defeated had not
Democrats been led to understand that the
enormous river and harbor appropriation
bill. in which Democrats OF the South were
so deeply interested. would be passed after
the former measures were disposed of. The
truth is that it is not the public patronage
which is so corrupting; it is the demand OF
constituents for appropriations for their
districts.

r FLAG IN KANSAS.
Monument to Commemorate It's Hoist

CORTLAND. Kan, July 4-The corner
stone of the proposed monument to mark
the spot where the American flag was first
raised over the territory now known as
Kansas was laid to-day. The flag was
raised by Zebulon H. Pike. then a lieuten-
ant of the American army. on Sept. p.
1906. and on the anniversary Of that day
this year the monument begun to-day will
be formally unveiled. The ceremonies to-
day were under the direction OF the Kansas
State Historical Society. which is charged
with the care Of the ground upon which
the monument is to stand and where once
was the capital village of the ancient
Pawnee Republic. Marks of this village
still exist and in recent years have been
preserved by Elizabeth A. Johnson, the
wife OF a farmer who lives on the adjoin-

Pixies exploit was a daring one. In 1906
he started with twenty men TO explore the
newly acquired Louisiana purchase. just
after Lieut.. Don Facundo Melgares. at the
head of a detachment Of Spanish soldiers,
had pursued the Pawnees and compelled
them to swear allegiance TO Spain and TO
run up a Spanish flag over their village,
which then constituted the most powerful
Indian government on the plains. Pike de-
flag be hauled down and the American
colors substituted. representing that his
party OF twenty was simply the advance
guard OF a large army. Tn chief told the
Indians that to refuse Pixies demand would
mean a hard fight. and they finally con-
sented.

Mysterious Robbery at San Francisco
Which DIRECTORY Roberts and 9th

SAN FRANCISCO, July 4.-Concerning
the report published yesterday that a short
age had been discovered in the San Fran
cisco branch mint. the Chronicle to-day
says: six bags of gold, each containing
5000 in $50 pieces, have disappeared from
the mint as though spirited away by magic.
No trace of the thief has been discovered,
though Superintendent Leach and his force,
assisted by Director of the Mint Roberts
and his staff of experts. have been at work
on the mystery since Saturday noon. June
%. when the shortage was discovered. At
first it was supposed there was an error
in the books or in counting the bags. but
1t was soon found that the money had been
stolen.
The annual count of the coin was begun
last Friday morning. The mint officials
went over the money and accounts just
ahead of the examiners and during the
lucheon hour on Saturday discovered that
six bags were missing from the s25, 600, 600
In gold in the cashiers vault. Superintend-
ent Leach was at once informed and he
notified Director Roberts of the shortage.
1t was found the cashiers books balanced
with those of the other departments and
called for the $50. coo that was missing. The
officials were then forced to the conclusion
that somebody acquainted with the inside
affairs of the mint had taken the money.
Dimick declared that suspicion could not
point TO Cashier Cole. since his books were
in perfect condition and called for the
