Nothing is more vital to our supremacy
as a nation and to the beneficent purpo
ses of our government than a sound and
stable currency. So far as the executive
branch of the government can intervene
with any of the powers with which it is
vested, thev will not be withheld when
their exercise is deemed necessary to
maintain our national credit or avert
financial disaster. Lessons of-paternalism
ought to be unlearned and the better
lesson taught that while the people
Bhould patriotically and cheerfully sup
port their government, its functions do
not include tne support oi me peopie.
It is a plain dictate of honesty and good
government that public expenditures
should be limited by public necessity
and that this should be measured by
rules of strict economy. He inveighs
against the "demoralizing madness for
spoils," and commended civil service
reform. Also against conspiracies ui
nnnital and combinations of business in
terests against the people's welfare. But
the accomplishment of tariff reform
formed the burden of the new president's
inaugural, and he closes this part of bis
address by saying:
"Even if insuperable obstacles and op
position prevent the consummation of
our task, we shall hardly be excused, and
if failure can be traced to our fault or
neglect we may be sure the people will
hold us to a swift, exacting accountability."
The American people nave somenow

has a strong, if not stubborn, will of his

Mil Clark, of Wyoming, has introduc
ed an important resolution, which may
have a direct effect upon the question of
the price of bituminous coal in all sec
tions of the trans-Mississippi country.
The resolution authorizes tho speaker of
the house to appoint a committee of five
members-elect of the Fifty-third congress
to inquire into the sale or alleged sale of
all tho Union Pacific coal properties to
another corporation. It is alleged that
the latter corporation is composed of the
general officers and the employes of the
Union Pacific railroad company and that
the whole of tho coal lands, valued at
between 4,000,000 and S5,000,000, have
been disposed of to the new corporation
without any consideration whatever. The
scheme of the transfer is said to be the
enrichment of tho individual officers of
the company to the detriment of the
. corporation "itsalf. and that by it tho
security which tho United States holds
is materially lessened. Mr. Clark thinks
that the new corporation is playing a
gamo to keep small operators in Colorado
and Wyoming from working the coal
lands owned outside of the field of the
Union Pacific proper. The resolution
was referred to the committee on Pacific
railroads, and will be called up within
a week.

Secretary Foster made, on Saturday, a
supplementary report of the condition of
the treasury to the house ways and
means committee, in which a reduction
in his previous estimate was made. He
said that when he made his previous
estimate he had not made allowance for
tho payment of the Choctaw Indian
claim, which will take about 88,000,000,
and that receipts from customs had
already fallen below his estimate because
nf the exnectation of early changes in
tho tariff law. He also tola the com
mittee that he thought it probable a
deficit would exist in the fiscal year be
ginning July 1, 1894, and that if he were
to remain at tho head of the treasury
department ho would like to have an
addition of 850.000,000 to tho balance,
825,000,000 of which he would use to
maintain the gold reserve. The secre
tary takeB no stock in the wild talk about
the danger of a panic, either now or in
the near future. Such talk has been

presented his report to the house and it
was by a vote ordered printed. He was
surprised an hour later to be informed
by the printing clerk that Speaker Crisp
had issued an order forbidding the print

croup) can be prevented. True croup
never appears without a warning. The
first -symptom is hoarseness; then the
child appears to have tatcen a cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarbe
nees from the start. After that a pe
culiar rough cough is-tleveloped, which
is followed by the croup. The time to
act is when the child first becomes
hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's
Couch Remedy will prevent the attack.

Washington Letter.
From onr regular, correspondent.
The President is not losing any sleep
because of tho failure of the senate to
ratify the treaty providing for the annex
ation of Hawaii, and of the report that
nearly one-half tho senate is opposed to
its present ratification, some of them
mostly republicans because they doubt
the wisdom of immediate annexation,
believing a protectorate preferable; and
others mostly democrats because they
do not wish the credit of acquiring the
islands to go to the republican adminis
tration. Mr. Harrison has done what he
conceived to be his duty in negotiating
the treaty and in sending a message to
the 6enate recommending that it be im
mediately ratified. When that was done
the responsibility was transferred from
him to the senate, and there he is willing
to leave it. Mr. Cleveland may not have
taken a hand in this business, but the
sudden change of mind among the dem
ocratic senatprs,some of whom were only
a few days ago clamoring for prompt
action, is to say the least, suspicious.
Some people, but your correspondent is
not one of them, believe that Judge
Greeham is responsible for the failure of
the senate to act, and that he is opposed
to annexation for no better reason than
that it is favored by Mr. Harrison.

Boston Operatic Company.
At last we aro to hao an entertain
ment worthy the name. G us. Schroeder,
E. Pohl, A. Boettcher and P. Hagel have
made arrangements to bring the famous
Boston Operatic Concert Company here,
March 13th. The Puoblo, (Colo.) Leader
of recent date says:
The Boston Operatic Concert Company
appeared last night before an audience
that filled every seat in the theatre, and
left hundreds standing, and still others
unablo to gain admission. That they
fully deserved tho patronajje bestowed
was demonstrated before the curtain had
been up thirty minutes. Tho musical
part of tho entertainment is ot especial
excellence, being far ahead of anything
heard in this city before. Miss Bertha
Haman's cornet solo was deservedly ap
plauded to the echo, while tho solo upon
the xelophone,by her twin sister, pleased
equally well. The musical program as a
whole, under the directorship of Miss
Irene Haman, was rendered with rare
taste and intelligence. Albert Hawthorne
the basso cantante, has a voice that for
clearness and depth of tone, easily holds
rank among the best bassos of this gen
eration. His rendition of tho "Arrow
and tho Song" was simply grand, he was
recalled time after time, and it began to
look as though tho delighted audience
would keep him singing indefinitely.
Dolph and Susie Levino, in their act
which they aptly style "Rival Arts,"
furnished the mirth and pathos of the
entertainment. Their efforts have a
novelty and originality that is well nigh
indescribable, singing, dancing, harp
playing, drawing, and story telling, all so
well and briskly done, that one hardly
knows where to begin. Laughter and
tears, astonishment and constant sur
prise keep the listener's mind in constant
action. The two features, however,
which seemed to stand out particularly,
was the singing of Miss Levino, with the
harp accompaniment, and tho crayon
sketches of prominent men by Mr.
Levino, while the lady eulogiseB the
subject in eong, the gentleman makes a
life-like crayon sketch of the features.
Summed up, it is the best entertainment
seen hero this season.

A story goes the rounds of a young
priest in Ireland, making his first at
tempt at a sermon. Being unusually
embarrassed, he got the story of the
multituilo that ere" fed from the few
loaves and fishes turned square around,
and when ho asked Patrick Mahoney if
he could do that, Pat. replied "yes, that
is easy done." The next Sunday, the
young priest read from the good bock,
and of course the multitude of people
wero fed from thefew loavesand fishes,
and the young priest, looking trium
phantly towards Patrick, asked, "Can
you do that?" "Yes," said Patrick, "I
can; I'd just take what was left over
from last Sunday."
