Portland, May 12. For Oregon and
Washington: Continued fair weather
warmer.
Local weather for tho twenty-four
hours ending at S p. m., yesterday, fur
nlahed by the U. 8. department of agri
culture, weather bureau:
Maximum temperature, 60 degrees,
Minimum temperature, 47 degrees
Precipitation, .09 inch.

While dire predictions of national
disaster are being made throughout
the country by alarmist Journals, the
condition of the nation's finances, as
shown by the official statement of the
public debt and the cash in the treas
ury at the close of business In April
will be found not alone Interesting,
but conflicting strongly with the views
of the croakers: At the end of April
the gold reserve was 197,011,330.08, and
the net cash balance, $24,471,673.73.
Aside from the gold reserve there was
42O2,283,3f.9.08, and In gold certificates,
18,888,110, and legal tender notes, old
Issue, $26,873,899. In actual gold there
was $299,294,689.16. Accepting the gold
certificates as the equivalent of gold
the aggregate of gold was $308,-
082,999.16. Of greenbacka, there was
$26,873,899, preferred to, metal by many.
These added to the actual gold on hand,
and the gold certificates, make an ag
gregate of $334,955,898, cash on hand,
not counting the $15,000,000 of silver
certificates and treasury notes of 1890,
or the $181,788,691.44 of silver. Count
ing all items, the cash in the treasury
on April 29, was $756,544,116.36.
Commenting on the fact that a com
mittee from the board of lady maw
