parties. He says III part:
1.-THE gold. democrats unable to make
successful attack upon the principles for
which Mr.. Bryan stood as the nominee of
the party, and which he now defends, are
attempting to question his right to mem
bership in the democratic party. Three
points are urged against him. First, heis
quoted as saying at some time prior to
1896 that he was not democrat. but
bimetalist: second. that he voted for Cen
eral Weaver in 1892, and third, that he
advocated principles which are not demo-s
cratic.
1.-The first charge is entirely without
foundation Mr.. Bryan never at any time
or place denied his political utilization with
the democratic party or permitted 1t to
be questioned. He made democratic
speeches in 1880. before he was old
enough to vote and has made democratic
speeches In every campaign since. He
has attended democratic conventions for
about twenty years, and has never been a
delegate to a convention of any other
party. He has favored fusion with the
populists in Nebraska for the reason that

RIGGS VALET IS MISSING
Important Witness in Famous MUIR
der Case Cannot Be Located
by the Police.

New York, July 24.-Detectives have
been searching in vain for Charles F.
Jones who confessed having caused the
death of the millionaire, William Marsh
Rice, whose valet he was. Jones received
immunity for becoming state witness
against Albert T. Patrick who was
charged with killing Rice, thru the in
strumentality Of Jones to secure the Rice
millions. In June, 1902, Jones was given
his freedom on the nominal bail of 81 900.
Before Jones was permitted to leave
prison he was made to agree that he
would keep in constant communication
with the district attorneys office and with
this understanding, he was permitted to
return to his old home in Texas.
Nearly every one he had known from
childhood passed him in silence on the
street He was practically in solitude
among his former friends. He went to,
Houston. where he had worked as
clerk for Rice in warehouse. There he
met with scorn, and In the letters to the
district attorneys office complained bit
terly of the treatment. AS last resort
Jones went to Galveston, and under an
assumed name, worked as mate on the
schooner Rapollo, which made weekly
trips from Galveston to the San Jacinto
river. ..-
Then he went to New Orleans, when
his letters stopped. It became desirable
to locate Jones but no trace Of him could
be found.

This was followed by the introduce
ton into the Organic Acts OF the va
rious Territories OF practically similar
wording. and was copied. in substance.
into our own Organic Act. in Section
50. with the omission OF the words Ito
meet a casual deficit in the revenues"
This latter phrase exactly covers the
cause OF the issuance of the Treasury
nores. and we are left TO struggle with
the question as TO whether the MEM
bers of Congress intended that we
should have no remedy to meet a casual
deficit in our revenues, or whether they
believed that by the laws Of the Ter
ritory. already in force, We had such
clear and complete remedy. TO wit:
issuance OF Treasury notes. that the
general statement was omitted from
our Organic Act.
II seems TO me that OF these two
contentious the most plausible, as
shown by the failure to repeal the
Chapter in question. is that Congress
intended that We should clear up all
casual deficits by the method already
in vogue in Hawaii, and did not intend
to have our remedy repealed by i'm
plication and to grant US no new
remedy.
II we take the contrary opinion, we
place this Territory practically alone
among the States and Territories of the
Union, in that It cannot tide over a
casual deficit and protect its credit by
the issuance OF proper certificates
Under this state of facts. although
the question is by no means free from
doubt. I believe that the issuance of
the Treasury notes is legal. and would
be so held by the courts of the Ter
ritory.

Sir: In answer to your oral request

would state as follows:
AS I understand it, the notes are is
sued under the authority given the
Minister of Finance, now Territorial
Treasurer. in Chapter 90 of the Civil
Laws of 1897. and it is commended that
the issuance of the same is Illegal, as
the said chapter is in contravention of
Section SO of the Organic Act. Section
of the Organic Act provides as fol-
lows:
1.-The laws of Hawaii not inconsistent
with the Constitution or Laws of the
United States, or the provisions of this
Act, shall continue in force, subject to
repeal or amendment by the Legislature
of Hawaii, or the Congress of the United
States"
1t is claimed that Chapter 50 afore-
said. under which these notes are is
sued, is inconsistent with the provisions
of said Act. as laid down in Section
So. The answer to this contention is,
that the United States Congress in
1886 passed a law governing all terri
tories, a portion of which reads as fol-
lows:
Section 8. That no law of any Ter
ritorial legislature shall authorize any
debt to be contracted by or on behalf
of such Territory. except in the follow
ing cases: To meet a casual deficit in
the revenues, to pay the interest upon
the Territorial debt, to suppress in

GOLD IN THE STREETS.
BAKER CITY (Or), July 25.-Gold
was discovered in the streets of Baker
City today. Workmen were digging a
sewer on Center street and at the cor
ner of First street the ditch was widen
ed and dug deeper to make room for
an intersection. Water spouted forth at
the depth of fifteen feet and gold bear
ing gravel was brought forth by the
stream. 1t is supposed that subter-
ranean streams carried the deposits
from the adjoining hills and imbedded
them in the alluvial deposits of the
valley. The discovery of the strata
bearing the gold has created no great
excitement in Baker City. The city
already owns and leases annually the
famous Nelson placers close to the

MODERN ALCHEMY.

LONDON, July 25-Sir William
and Lady Higgins have taken UP the
problem of the spectroscope analysis
of the light emitted directly by radium
salt at ordinary temperatures, and the
results of their work have been re-
ceived by the Royal Society. From a
preliminary visual observation it SEEM
ed that there were traces of bright
lines in the continuous spectrum. Prep
arations were therefore made for a
Photographic record by means of a
quartz spectroscope. Finally a spec
trum consisting of eight definite bright
lines in ultra violet, entirely differ
ent from the spark spectrum of radi-
um, and some faint lines, together
with very faint continuous spectrum,
was obtained by seventy-two hours
exposure.
On comparison this spectrum was
found to be so different from the or
binary phosphorescent spectrum with
recorded measurements for helium
that it appeared at once that four, or
perhaps five of the eight lines agreed
with the lines of helium. Sir William
Ramsay, F. r. S., and others also
found a distinct evidence of the pres
ence of helium in the spectra of the
gases emanating from radium bromide.
The present observations therefore
Indicate that radium shines largely
by the light of the rare gas helium
which II evolves. In this formation
of the element of helium from a to-
tally distinct element of radium the
imaginative may see a partial realiZa-
