The Contingent Fund.

| In the current number OF his
personal organ, The "I"ssue,
| Mr.. Vardaman says:
Every dollar Of the contin.
gent fund was used for the bene'
fit of the people of Mississippi,
as the law directed. Not one
penny was used by Vardamar
! improperly. or for his personal
use, and any man who intimates
to the contrary states an in
famous, malicious falsehood. "
The above sounds very brave
and heroic, but Mr.. Vardaman
cannot answer the serious char
ges preferred against him in
that way.
Cold blooded facts and figures.
| the accuracy of which has never
been challenged, cannot be set
aside by a mere wave of the
hand or indulgence in vitriolic
denunciations.
The report of the investigat-
ing committee, backed up by the
business-like statement of the
expert accountant, prefers char
ges against Mr.. Vardaman that
must be answered. He owes it
to himself, to his friends, and to
the people whose votes he is
soliciting, and to the good name
of Mississippi, to make an ex-
planation.
In a word, he must show how
several thousand dollars of the
funds placed in his possession,
for which he left no semblance
of a record, were disposed of.
He must show to whom this
money was paid, anu for what
purpose.
The defendant brought into
court to answer an indictment
backed up by an array of facts
cannot expect acquittal on his
unsupported statement that the
charge is IAN infamous, malic-
ious falsehood." He must pre-
sent evidence to clear his good
name of the charge.
| Furthermore, the testimony is
conclusive that Mr.. Vardaman
did promise his friends that he
would make a full explanation of
the contingent fund matter. He
has signally failed to do so.
Nothing whatever in the form Of
a business.like statement has
emanated from him showing how
he disposed Of that portion of the
fund for which no vouchers were
taken. He has not explained
why he collected double pay for
visits to state institutions, the
amounts collected being far in
excess of the legitimate expenses
of such trigs. There are numer-
Gus other irregularities shown in
in the report Of the investigating
committee and the expert ac-
countant that appear inaxplic-
able, and will remain so until
Mr.. Vardaman takes the public
into his confidence and tells
where the money went.
Mr.. Vardaman cannot afford
to wrong himself by, continued
avoidance of this subject.
Furthermore, it was the peoples
money that he expended, and
the people have right to know
how it was used. jackson News,

Five Veterans Die Every Hour.

The death of General Gobln,
one of the sons of Pennsylvania,
who served with credit through
the Civil War, and afterwards
rose to distinction IN the State of
his nativity, recalls a remark
made a few days ago in congress.
This was to the effect that at
the present time the veterans OF
the Civil War are dying at the
rate OF one every 20 minutes.
This means that 72 of the old men
are answering the last roll call ev
cry "a hours and 43,800 every
year.
The senator who made the
statement got his information
from the pension Office.
Forty-hve years have passed
since the last battle of that war
was fought. No man now living
could have done any effective ser
vice In the great conflict, who Is
not rapidly approaching the allot'
ed period of human life.

Is This More Forgeryf

A few days ago u democratic con
temporary, the World-Herald, raj ex-
posed pe%rpetrating a forgery on Hon.
L. D. Richards Of Fremont by printing
a fake letter over his signature de-
signed to put him in a false light. The
Lincoln Star prints the correspondence
in the Crabtree matter said to have
passed between Secretary Ludden of
tn Nj nal School board and Earl M.
Cline, president of the Peru Alumni
association, the last epistle in this
series penned by Mr.. Cline concluding
as follows:
II I might be so bold as TO venture a
suggestion, I would suggest that the Board
OF Education revoke the diplomas OF the
State Journal, Lincoln Daily Star and
Omaha World-Herald for "catspaw" edi-
torials. / submit tina 1 am doing nothing,
have done nothing and will do nothing to
lnjure the school other than to disagree
with your royal highnesses and to petition
for a redress OF grievance.
The World-He purports to print
the same letter, but in the World
Herald this part reads as follows:
II may be SO bold as to venture a sug-
gestion, 1 would suggest that the Board
Of Education revoke the diplomas Of the
State Journal, Lincoln Daily Star and
Omaha World-Herald for "catspaw" edi-
torials and confer the degree OF Bachelor
OF Education upon The Omaha Bee. l
submit. etc.
Is this another case of forgery? Has
the Lincoln Daily Star been expur.
eating this correspondence? Or is the
World-Herald editor inserting add
tions to make it read as he would have
written itP Or did Mr.. Cline send let.
tiers or Giferent reading TO different
papers?
