The charges and notoriously made, and were ap parently based on such good founda-! tion that the goveruor very properly withheld the commissions until the) courts could decide who were the! legally elected officers After thor-| oughly investiguting all the evi dence, Mr Brewmerman, candidate | for prosecutiny attorney ou the democratic ticket, publishes a letter withdrawing from the contest, giv ing a8 his reasons therefor that he bad become convinced that bis op povent on the republican ticket, Mr. Jawisob, was legally elected ard that be is unwilling to take advan tage of a technicality in profit by fraud and forgery.

An investigating committee re ports that hundreds of car loads of provisions for Nebraska sufferers are ide tracked, while the people are starving. According to the State Treasurer's weport, Bates county paid into the Gtate treasury in the year 1893 in taxes, $23,053 21, and in the year 1894, $20,907 46. The republican members of the Yegislature spent half of the day Monday opposing a resolution to print and distribute 2,000 copies of the governor's message. Time lost €o the tax-payers $1,000, money saved inrefusing to print the mes sage $10. If the republican legislature of Missouri don't get down to business Nothing done.

Then a big defiviency in the treasury apparently existed, and with a depleted treasury and a continuous deficiency staring us in the face, the financial situation was anything but encouraging.

In the first case there is cause for grave alarm; in the second, methods will be devised to recuperate the gold and that without much flurry in the fipancial world.
