Refunded to YakIma County.

County Auditor Newcomb has re-
oeived from the state treasurer draft
for ;4S90.20 as a refund of overpald
taxes made to the state eight years
ago. The matter was taken up with
the state authorities two years ago
and II was not until week or so ago
that things came to a head so the
money could be paid back into the
Yakima treasury.
The money was due from the state
on account on an error made by
County Assessor John L. Lasswell in
1S97-1S9S, He certified to the state
324, 900 acres more of land than there
were on the tax rolls. The state board
OF equalization placed a value of S2.75
an acre on the land and the county
had to pay taxes on lt.-North Yakima

F,.ipntc ConstItutIon I'm Danger

Boston, Sept. 25.-It is reported on
good authority that the frigate consti-
tuition, known as "The first ship of
the American navy" which has for
many years been one of the most
valued possessions Of the Charlestown
navy yard, is in danger Of turning
turtle" and is doomed unless some
thing is done soon to restore 1t. The
frigate ia leaking badly and the hold
fills so rapidly that 1t is necessary to
use a power pump at frequent inter-
walls. 1t has been stated by attaches
Of the navy yard that the officials
did not care to risk placing the ship
in dry dock to make repairs, as the
vessel would probably collapse under
It's own weight.

The contract was awarded to II. d.

upon careful Investigation by the city
engineer that his bid was the lowest
and best for the city.
A report was submitted by Engineer
Mohr, In which 1t was shown that,
while on the face of the bids that OF
Mr.. Gould was not the lowest, yet
upon careful investigation of the diff
ferent portions of the work, his bid
was better for the city by several
hundred dollars than that of any
other bidder. Some changes were
made in the plan OF work from that
originally given the contractors which
will make saving to the city OF some
$4,000 or $4,000. The original bid of
Mr.. Gould was a little in excess of
$4,000, but as accepted by the coun-
ell II is estimated that the work will
be done at cost to the city Of be-

WHITE WILL Be CLEARED
Investigating Committee Fails to
Find Anything Damaging.
WITNESSES WILL NOT APPEAR
Senator Caldwell and Judge Reese
Blizzard Have So Far Dodged
the Whole Affair.

The legislative committee appointed
to investigate the charges made a.
gainst Governor White by State Sem
ator Caldwell resumed its sessions
at Charleston Friday morning
when it is expected that Judge Reese
Blizzard and Senator Caldwell will be
present to testify. The three last
witnesses to appear before the com.
mittee denied any knowledge that
could possibly connect former Cover
nor White with the fees OF the
secretary of state.
John Baker mite, who got up the
scheme to collect fund from the nom
resident corporations doing business
under West Virginia corporations for
the purpose of securing the passage of
a bill reducing their charter fees, was
examined, and declared that Governor
White had no connection whatever
with the plan. and received no part of
the proceeds.
j. J. Mathews, secretary of the Tri-
bune Printing Co., which has had the
State printing during Whites incum-
bency of the Office of governor, told of
Governor Whites campaign for the
nomination for governor. A few
months atterward the company went
into the hands of receiver.
L. L. Boggs, private secretary to
Governor White, said he made about
all OF Governor Whites deposits in the
bank and frequently went over his
bank account, and was otherwise init.
mately associated with his private
business, and IN position to know al
about any deal that had a money con
sideration, and knew Of nothing con-
Meeting White with the fees of Daw
sons office.
1t is confidently predicted by those
who have watched the development
of the investigation, or rather the
lack OF development, that neither
Senator Caldwell nor Judge Blizzard
will be able to induce any testimony
Of damaging character, and IL this
should prove to be the case, il would
seem that an imm ediate adjournment
should be in order by the committee,
to be followed by plain statement OF
the situation to the people.
Senatar Caldwell made some very
grave charges against former Cover.
nor White, but has either been un-
willing or unable to produce any
proof in support.

against the powers that were before
northern journalism attained TO its pres
ent high estate. More than one editor
of the radical school found the prison
cell his sole reward for championing
the cause of liberty during the period Of
reconstruction" But as in Scandinavia
legislative halls were compelled to open
to farmer, burgher and aristocrat on
equal terms censorial restriction became
dead letter, until to-day the press of
no nation in the world is freer from per-
nicious interference than that of Den
mark and Sweden-Norway. AS pro-
moters of education among the masses,
the Scandinavian newspapers can teach
their European contemporaries more
than one lesson. That the Danes are
great readers, the publication of more
than 20 daily papers in Copenhagen
alone bears testimony The monthly
magazines, the illustrated weeklies and
the many technical journals are evil
dence that this reading is not confined to
the newspapers.
Foremost among the progressive
newspapers of Copenhagen, which
means, of course, OF Denmark, is the
Politiken (Politics). That 1t is the
organ of the liberals may be assumed
from its aggressive title. Established
by the late Viggo Lauritz Hoerup, In his
day the most brilliant among a con-
spicuous group of journalists, the PoAti-
ken was born, SO to speak, during the
most strenuous political period the
country ever witnessed. 1t was Hoerup's
virile. pen that fought relentlessly
against the fogyism of the ultra-con-
servatives, and instrumental in bring
ing about the great political reform of
1901, this champion of equal rights be-
came a member of the Deuntzer cabinet.
The present editor of the Politiken is
