to s1,4O0 in 1886; and he continued to
hold down his chair until the firm of
Duel & Magrath promoted him. With

THE GREAT TRIUMVIRS.
Who Rule the Capital of the Ma
tiOn-Spicy Remarks.

EDITOR GLOBE: There is probably as
little known OF understood through
out the country about the tri-
pod oligarch, known as the govern
ment of the District of Columbia, as
any section of the United States. 1t is
fact that a great many people sup
pose that the general government pays
all the taxes, and even supports the
city government, and are surprised If
told that taxes or the one-half which
the people pay are fully as much as
the taxes are in other cities that gov
ern themselves.
During the past Presidential cam
paign Bryan spent wind enough to
have blossomed out an Ohio orchard
in January, telling the people about
militaryism. while Roosevelt gyTated,
fowled. danced clog. and performed an.
tics that would have done credit to an
organ grinders pet monkey trying to
show how small a percentage our army
was to our whole people, but neither of
them said a word about the District Of
Columbia, where the government is
one-third military, and the other two
thirds political nonentities; and If
either of them Is a taxpayer we have
failed to find his name on the tax list
They are what would be termed $4,000
pap patriots. with power more absolute
than the Gar Of Russia.
They manage to keep the members
of the committees of both Houses Of
Congress on the District of Colum'
Eia well supplied with patronage (evcn
appointing Abel, the Census o iice stuff
fer of Maryland, to a position as po-
liceman); then If citizens seek any re-
dress from Congress to throw off this
tyranny the question is referred to
one or the other of those committees,
and from there to the Commissioners,
and either the whole is squeched or
blue-penciled so that 1t is of no use,
and the citizens can simply kick them
selves and realize that the word of the
Commissioners is law; there is none
higher, Mr. John w. Ross can double
discount any man in this country in
dealing out patronage where IL will
be of the most benefit to himself, while
Mr.. Mcfarland can keep the religious
end in tune: and the peoples protege,
Beach, whom they educated at the
celebrated institution at West Point,
where they believe in killing a man IL
he does not just exactly suit now seems
to think he runs the world, and in
place of going TO the Philippines to
display his prowess he shows the peo-
pie of this District what a mighty man
he is. So the District of Columbia is
filed up with hangers-on, time-killers,
etc 10 eat M the peoples morcv.
For instance. If job is to be done
on the street that an ordinary man
would do in one.half hour, a laborer
goes to do the work, a boss TO oversee
him. and an inspector to examine the
work; and it usually takes one-half
day or more. This is but small sam
nile of how the business is done.

Tired of Naval Matters.

July 2, 1901.
MR. EDITOR: | suggest for the great
medal proposed for naval heroes: On
one side a pack Of ferocious-looking
bull terriers, to represent our Navy
watching hole Centrance to Santiago),
for a lot Of half-starved rats to make
their appearance, the rats to represent
the Spanish navy. Then, on the other
side, let IL show how the terriers
chased the rats and devoured them,
and then give the great fight between
the terriers, fighting about who killed
most Of the starved rats. | think this
a good picture of the affair that has
nauseated the public so long, and
which people who have suffered from
the sickening and cowardly stuff in the
papers, pray to have some relief.

1t is well known after he was mad
chief Of the Indian Division h
played" Auditor Youngblood for all
he could, going to him with tales about
the then deputy auditor Person, but
the deputy auditor soon caught o. to
his craft; now a clerk from South Da-
kota is slated for his position. In his
office there is a twice divorced blonde,
with auburn hair, who is backed by
certain New York Senator, who is a
privileged character, and regardless OF
the rules Of the office this woman
comes and goes. Funk, who has been
drawing Government money for the
last thirty years, managed 10 work his
son in the Government service. He
first worked LIN on the Bond Issue,
and ! understand he has lately sue
ceeded in working him in the Indian
Office. This official, who was promoted
without taking a Department examina-
tion, should be removed from the De-
partment, and it would be particu-
larly pleasing to the ladies of the
Treasury Department who are famil-
lar with his record. j. r. B.

Ohio Victory and Anti-LiquOr.

The Chicago New Voice, the great
anti-canteen and anti-liquor organ,
thus sarcastically headlines the turn

of Carl Nippert on the Republican
State ticket. 1t then says
"The victory won by the anti-Sa'

victories. wholly barren of results

COX. That is almost enough to say
He is described by the daily papers as
a liberal German a man who voted
against the Leagues pet measure, the
Clark bill, and as equally acceptable
to the brewers and the anti-Saloon
League
"The anti-Saloon wing Of the Repub'
lican party will probably vaunt itself
much over this success, and will for
get all about the fact that the first act
of Governor Nash whom it helped elect
two years ago, was to appoint brewer
as a member of his official family, VIII

The New Voice gives the sensational
details of the death of Secretary Hay
son, and charges that he was drunk
when he fell from the window Of his
hotel. He had been drinking cham
pagne, the Voice says, with a notorious
variety actress, and had to leave the
boat on which she was going to New
York, in a state of intoxication protest
ing against being separated from the
lady until he was ready.

The claim IS made by the husband
of the Kennedy woman, who escaped
from the pest house where she was
confined with u well developed case OF
smallpox, that he did not assist her
in getting away and furthermore that
he has no knowledge whatever of
her having eft the city. Others say
they belleye she is still here, secreted
somewhere in order to eyade arrest.
In view Of these statements there can
be no doubt that it is the plain duty
of the proper officials to institute a
most diligent search wiLnout NOM
ent of further delay. Tho welfare of
our citizens demands prompt action.
