The distressed passengers huddled
together like flock of frightened
sheep, while some of the armed men
stood on guard others scrutinized each
group. and a few more searched the
carriages. doubtless appropriating
what loose valuables they discovered.
He who seemed to be leader drew
the count aside and sternly covered
him with pistol while he asked few
questions in low voice.
Then he went direct to carriage
that had escaped injury. as though
directed thither. and dragged there
from an individual who came forth
very unwillingly.
Quickly this party made an effort at
defense. but was set upon by several
of the marauders, disarmed and made
a prisoner.
Then sharp commands were given,
the armed men fell into line. and while
the travellers still huddled about the
fires, the mysterious force vanished as
strangely as it had come. among the
trees and rocks that marked that
mountainous section.

tutions. No funds We're available, so
it was borrowed on the credit of the
state from the Denver clearing house
banks and citizens. There was no Sc
curly given for this money except the
credit of the state In general. Recent
ly the banks have demanded that they
be paid. The meeting of the auditing
board has been postponed from time to
time and yesterday was the first op-
pOriunity the board had to act on this
demand. Auditor Crouter has insisted
that this money could not be paid un-
der the constitution, as there was no
law authorizing him to do so. He mnin-
tanned this position until the action
of the board yesterday and still hollis
to his original opinion. Governor Or
man and Attorney General Post
thought the bill should be paid and be
lieved that under the law and the
wording Of the Short appropriation act
ii could legally be done. The resolu-
lions passed by the board yesterday
state that as under the Short appro-
priation act certain moneys were OBJ
tanned for the purpose of paying incl
dental and contingent expenses of the
several departments of the state, and
as SOL. 800 of said appropriation was
placed under the control of the audit
ing board. this money, placed in the
hands of the board could be used for
the purposes designated. The resolu
tons reclte that there was borrowed
from the Denver clearing house banks
and certain citizens of Boulder sums
amounting to 100000. and, further, 1t
is related that this contingent fund Of
S25l 800 was authorized to be used for
Just such purposes.

The Independent last week con-
tained a special supplement relat-
ing to matters political and intend
ed especially to promote Mr.. Ed
ward Robb's aspirations to succeed
himself as congressman from this
district. Incidentally its object
was also to keep the editor of that
paper drawing his 500 per month,
as MIR. Hobbs private secretary.
One OF the pleasing features of
the supplement was the excellent
likeness of Mr.. Robb. 1t depicts
our doughty congressman with his
noble brow barred to the view of
an adaniring constituency; brow
indicative of a massive intellect, a
brilliancy of thought which, when
uttered in the forum of the peo-
pie, no doubt drew forth thunder
ous applause. His eye is COM
manding and his ears of large re-
ceptive capacity. In connection
with this portrait we are given a
resume of Mr.. Robb's brilliant re.
cord in Congress, which, strange
to say, has never appeared
elsewhere. One of Judge Dear
ing's adherents intimated to us
that he thought Mr.. Robb's private
secretary must have occupied HIM
self in Washington all last winter
in the compiling of this 'record. -
We resented the insinuation, how
ever, as we do not believe the pri-
vate secretary is capable of for
mulating record of any conse-
quence at all.

The political debauchery of Mis-

science of the people of that State
TO the necessity for a radical
change, if anything can accom-
plish that miracle. 1t has been
shown that Democratic govern
ment has robbed Missouri's school
fund blind. There is a small par
tisan ring in control of the State,
headed by a small bore politician
named Stone, who, through his con-
troll of the State machine, has been
able to give his name a meretri-
cio1s national prominence. The
last Legislature of the State plac-
ed st. Louis SO completely in the
hands of the Doodle gang that re-
presents the Democratic party in
that city, that the city and Con-
gressional elections were travesty
on popular government, and the
grand jury has been forced to
bring ia number of indictments
on gross charges of boodleism,
while, Congress has vacated the
Congressional seat because of the
proof OF enormous and glaring
frauds. The Democrats Of Mis-
souri, have otte able representative.

The general conference of the
Methodist Epicopal Church, South,
has decided to accept the money
allowed the Church by the govern
ment on certain war damage
claims, with the proviso that an
offer should first be made to re-
fund the money to the government.
The delicacy the Church has in
tsking possession of this money,
something like $150,OO0, comes
from the fact that some of its
agents authorized to push the
claims through congress, practiced
"deceptions, misrepresentation,
concealments, ect., to secure the
allowance" The government viii
of course decline to take back the
money, and as the Church seem.
to have eased its conscience by
the offer to refund, the incident
may be regarded as closed.

Democracy and Draw"

AND so Harry HaWeS was not
indicted for playing poker on the
banks of a creek up in Charlton
County, after all! Some son of
Belial with the writing habit,
'faked'' the whole thing. 1t was
a sorry thing to do-to lie about
such delicate things rs indictments
with the St. Louis grand-jury in
session, and with as many things
as Harry has to keep under cover,
but it would have been far sorrier
had reckless grand Jury up in
Charlton County rendered it nee
essary for the newspaper man to
tell the truth. Think about set
ting such Il foolish precedent rs
indicting a Democratic officer for
such an offense as playing poker!
Why, knowing how to play poker
Is one of the strongest traits of
Democracy, and no man can ever
expect to achieve the proud posi-
tion of regular Democratic poll
tician in Missouri without knowing
the mysteries of the great game.
If you started out to indict Demo
cratic politicians for playing poker
the courts would never have any
thing else before them but the
work of convicting poker sharps.
If started out to punish Demo
cratic politicians for poker playing,
l would first prove that they were
Democratic politicians, and the
jury would find them guilty by an
inference as just as that might be
drawn from the feet that because 6
man has two shoes he naturally
has two feet on which to weal
them.
Poker may be considered mere
ly a projection Or extension Of
Democratic politics, so similar are
the two games. Democratic poll
tics is played for cash stake, ant
so is poker. The ability to bluff.

Lead Company Forming.

A news dispatch from New
York City, under date Of May 23d
to the Globe Democrat says:
Within few days company
will be Incorporated, probably in
New Jersey, for the taking over
of about 10000 acres of lead-pro-
dncing properties in the counties
Of Washington and st. Francois,
Mo-, which have beer acquired by
Mr.. Thomas F. Ryan in the last
three years. The formation of
this company will result in an al
lance between it and concern
known as the Union Lead and Oil
company.
The new company will produce
pig lead and the old company
white lead and other products of
pig lead. Together the two COM
panies will come near controlling
the lead output of the United
States. Associated with Mr.. Ryan
in the company that is to be form
ed and in the Union Lead and Oil
company are Daniel Guggenheim
and his five brothers who are the
big men in the American Smelling
and Refining company, and Will
INN G. Whitney.
1t has been commonly supposed
that the National Lead company
sometimes called the lead trust
was the unassailable lead octopu!
in the United States. To all in
tents and purposes, it is such to-
day, but with the formation of th'
company its alliance with the I'm
ion Lead and Oil company and the
alliance with the Guggenheims
with Mr.. Ryan and Mr.. Whitney
an entirely new face is put on tn
lead situation. So quietly has thi
alliance of interests been mad
however, that the Globe Democra
gives here the first account of wha
has been done.
The mining of lead and th'
manufacture of its products is al
together new business for Mr.
Ryan, and he got into it by acci
dent. Mr.. Ryan is one of tn
