absolutely nothing that will ever ben

There Is now u very strong proba
bility that the silver problem will be
settled in the senate by adopting one
of the compromise ammendmcnta
which will result in coining all the
seigniorage and about $2,000 000 of sil
ver a month besides. The thirty-uine-hour
session has thoroughly demon
strated the fact that the silver people
are determined that they do not intend
to be forced into yielding either by vir
tue of superior statesmanship or by
presure of brute force. This country

use 1100,000,000 more of the white

Now, on this day this matter com
ing on for consideration, there come
C. M. White into open court and
presented to tho court his report and
statement of the condition uud bal
ances ol (lie oflleer of Columbia
a Chinaman is tf.to ana as there are
about 110,000 Chinese in this country
it is estimated that the cost of depor
iug them will aggregate $2,000,000.
DELINQUENT MUX T Y0FFICIA LS.
It costs a lot of money to Veep de
tectives hanging around the homes of
pensioned veterans, in search of some
excuse to deprive the pensioner of all
or a portion of his allowance. In the
regular pension appropriation bill for
the current fiscal year there was an
item of $200,000 for the investigation
of pension cases, that is, to pay ex
penses incurred outside of the regular
machinery of the pension bureau
Although only a little more than one
fonrth of the fiscal year has gone all of
that $200,000 appropriation has been
expended and Secretary Hoke Smith
has asked Congress for an additional
appropriation of $300,000 to be used for
the same purpose.
This Pacific Banker speaking cf
American business says ; "The repre
sentative powers of the American
business world challenge the admira
tion of mankind. Financial storms
that would have wrecked half the na
tions or tue earth have swept over
this country and left no other evidence
of their visitation than an increased
supply of business enterprise and the
desire to renew the fierce battle for
individual prosperity. Recent JTew
York bank statements furnish ample
evidence of continued tendency to
ward an improvement, and it must
now be plain to every one that the
money panio is practically ended, pro
vided the action of congress is not
such as to renew the distrust of capi
talists and manufacturers and bring
back with even greater force the on
settled feeling in both commercial and
financial marts. The overwhelming
majority given in the bouse of repre
sentatives in favor of the repeal of the
Sherman law reassured the whole
country and even tho old granny dila
toriness of the senate has not yet suf
ficed to overthrow the feeling of con
fidence thus engendered. The stock
of specie and of legal lenders in the
New York banks have been increas
ing, and while this strengthening in
actual cash has gone on, another
process to the same effect has taken
place by a reduction of several mill
ion in loans. It now seems to be the
generally accepted belief all over the
country that once the silver question
is disposed of, in accordance with the
advice of the president and the comp
troller of the currency, money which
has been withdrawn from circulation
and hoarded in the hope that gold will
be forced to a premium, will at once
be restored to the ordinary channels
of trade, and renewed prosperity from
one end of the United States to the
other will result.
After almost endless talk, amend
ments and opposition, an exclusion bill
juaa been passed through congress
which, when the limitation clause ex
pires, will very likely not only exclude
such Chinese as will not comply with
it, but which will also prevent the re
turn of all Chinese residents who may
hereafter pass the shores nf this coun
try. The bill as it passed and became
a law, is simply the Geary law in an
mended or perfected form. The
amendments made were offered by
NcCieary and are substantially as fol
lows: The time allowed in which to
register and comply with every re
quirement of the law, is extended cix
months, at the end of which time the
most rigid measures will be adopted
lor carrying into effect all its provis
ions, It makes clear all indislinc.
As had been surmised, the report
of Expert White has brought several
of the present and former county of
ficials out short in their accounts, and
some of them have accepted the result
without question and promptly made
their discrepancies good, together with
interest and all other claims of the
county. Their action in so doing,
however, cannot be accepted as an
admission of a crime, and this the eas
iest course to pnrsnc in order to avoid
prosecution and further complications.
Ssme of the more heavily implicated
officials dispute the correctness of the
report and declare their ability to show
that there is something radically
wrong. As to whethur a crime has
been committed remains to be deter
mined by those whose busiuess it is to
protect public interests. No man is
perfect all the time, and as the work
of all those officials is more or less
complicated, it is only fair to assume
that much of the shortage is the re
sult of clerical errors rather than crim
inal carelessness or criminal intent.
Mr. Cole accepted the report of the
expert and paid his shortage together
with interest, amounting in ali to
$1,030. Mr. Dale promptly made his i
discrepancy good under protest. The
report shows Treasurer Wharton two
dollars and seventy-five cents short,
on the 5th of July, but when his ac
count was brought dowu to date it was
found that the county owes him one
dollar and fifteen cents. Sheriff Mas-
sie disputes the report and will im
mediately employ an expert account
ant to go over the books and discover
the mistake. Assessor Kyser was
found to be short ?2S8 poll tax which
he had collected and failed to turn into
the treasury. He acknowledged the
shortage and paid the amount over to
Treasurer Wharton.
The shortage reported against
County Clerk Quick is simply unpaid
cost bills and reporter's fees which Mr.
Quick has been unable to collect, and
the amount charged agaiDst him rep
resents no cash transaction, but the ex
pert, in the course of his work fonnd
these bills unpaid and charged them
to Mr. Quick. It must not be forgot
ten that the disciepancies shown in
the county court proceedings is the re
sult of investigation up to July 5th.
Since that time the county clerk has
collected costs to the amount of $260,
and much of the shortage shown at
that time has since been greatly re
duced. When the grand' jury look
hold of the oases it was unable to pro
ceed intelligently without more recent
data, so Mr. White was employed for
the sum of $125 to proceed with the
work and bring the balances on down
to date. This farther investigation re
duced Mr. Quick's shortage to $859.
Mr. Quick then filed a supplemental
statement with the grand jury show
ing that he had been charged with
cases which there was no possible
meaDS of collecting and for which he
should not be held responsible. The
grand jury then decided to credit him
with a sufficient amount of these
charge to reduce his aocount to $182.
50 which he promptly paid, - Mr.
iuick win lunner investigate the re
port and is confident that he can re
duce his account to a few dollars.
Action was then taken on T. C.
Watt's account, which was reduced to
133 34, and paid.
Assessor Kyser's account was also
taken up and it was found that he had
follows vis: From July 5, to
July 5, 1S93 inclusive:

which said report was examined and
accepted by the court and the clerk
ordered to draw a warrant in favor of
C. M. White iu the sum of $18.0 on
the treasurer of Columbia county,
being the contract price for doing
said work.

The MUIuimer Exposition.
The fondest hopes of the projector of
the California Midwinter International
b.vpMtioii are more than realized. The
piospcets of its slice-ens have increased
daily until now the greatest topics of the
I nited states are willing to admit its suc
cess, its scupe has been broadening daily.
At first there were those who. unmindful
that the word fail was nnknonm to the
Californiais, doubted that exhibit and
concessions enough could be secured to
uliiize the one hundred acres of the Golden
Gate park set aside for the expo-irion. But
since that time the executive committee
has been forced to secure additional space
until now the grounds cover PjO acres
Th!!-e are those who sa d enough exhibitors
could not be persuaded to biing their goods
Reruns mc eouuueui oui me wort, ot secur
ing exhibits lias bsen progressing .rapidly
though quietly, and although it is by no
means finished, the administration knows
that at least twenty-rive nations will be
represented at the fair when it opens in
ban Francisco on New year's day.
Applicatins for space have been literally
pouring in Un the commissioners here
who represent the various nations which
will take part. So far from there not
being exhibits enonghtu fill the buildings,
u is leareu mat many ot loose who make
applications tor space must be refused.
Tlii is so well understood that even after
the commissioners have rejected a number
of applications as below the high standard
that has been made for the midwinter fair,
it has even now been found necessary to
build annexes to two of the buildings.
Those which have been arranged for the
annexes to the tine arts building and the
palace of mechanical arts. The fine arts
annex is to be 4xl) feet.
Many of the foreign countries will have
buildings of their own for housing their
exhibits Among those are Honduras,
Brazil, China, Japan and Costa Hica.
Htill other nations are considering the
feasibility of erecting their own buildings
but as they have not taken anv definite
steps iu the matter, their names are not
given. j-,nougl support is certain from
foreign countries to assure the interna
tional character or the exposition.
Besides the exhibit showing the products
of mines, soil and manufacture of the
various countries ofthe world, there will be
ottier leatnres showing the life, manners
and customs of difl'erent nations together
with the inhabitants themselves. Visitors
win be enabled to see the home life of Jap
anese, Tunisians, Egyptians, Persian
Turks, Chinese. Hawaiians. ItnhmuvMtw
fsamoans, Vienese, Indians and other peo-
wn n iiuse customs are more less Itnowu to
