Ithas been in contin ons session since the 19th of May, It has | cost the state somewhere from 50,000 to 250, 000, and the people very likely to ask | eui bono? This trial, which has consumed 80 much time, cost so much money, and wor ried so many people, is the outcome of ecare less ofticial habits and stubborn sel f-will There is no doubt but that the whole trouble mieht have been avoided and the case been settled months ago if the anditor and gov- ernos at that time had displayed a little tact and disposition to make reasonable conces- sions, But each was arbitrary and uncom- Promising—at least one always was when the othier might have been disposed to affect a settlement, Getting down to the marrow of this difieulty, there to be a dual side to the charges against Auditor Brown, Part of them his conduct as an ofticial, looked at from a business standjoint, and part his integrity, Many of the eharges against him relate to techuiealitios in the | conduct of the oflice, more or 1 important, and others alleze that h Kent fees that did not betonz to him, and sug gestinone ¢ least —that ot the Dremer county bank—a bribery. Mr Boown was ¢ 1 with a failure to keep account of ail fees eoming into his possessions with a t ure to tile vouchers for tl xpenditur of about 26,000, contingent or elerk s fund: with consenting 1o extortionate charies for insur- ar aminations made by Vail,a Chi examiner; with insubordination in retusing to admit the governor to examine lis books during business hours; with the aceepti tees for services that ouzht to formed without extra charie and as a recular part of his duties. The defenseto the greater vart of these charges las been that other oflicers have done mueh the same, that Brown is justitied mucl by precedent, and that as relates to the filing of vonchers for the expenditures of his contingent fund, he was in his own Judgment complying With the law by keepinga memoraudum on the stub of the warrants, A zood deal of partisan feeling has been developed during the trial, and an at- tempt hias heen made to show that Brown hias been perseeuted, that he was the most up- right and faithful official that was ever in the auditor’s oflee, So it wiil not be possible for the jury of fifty senators to vote altogether on the evidenee and law rescribed, from brejudice and bias, one way or the otl s thought now that the demoerats vote generally for acquittal, two or thr them possibly voting forconvietion, Of tl republicans, the prosecution expeet to it some twelve or fifteen Yotes, on- some counts possibly more, There are thivty counts in the indictment, and_ the entire senate must be polled on each count, which will require a long timein getting a yerdic LOOKING FOR REFORMS, “I'he present state administration seems to be of the reform kind, and it is undersiood that the governor is looking into sever ases of alleged mismanagement of state in- stitutions and misappropriations of state funds, State university of Towa City iy receiving a_little attention now, thouzgh nothing startling by way of development is expeeted. PAYING FOR TOWA'S ‘The last legislature passed priating about $5,000 10 persons who hsd ad money to meet the expe of the lown e hibit at New Orleans, as claimed that the bill being of the nature of aprivate clain, would require the constitutional majority of two-thirds to earry. 1t failed to et ihat number in the house but the speaker ruled that it was not nccessary, and the bill be- came a law, going into effect July 4. The state auditor, however, having some doubt of the legality of the law, was at first dis- vosed to withhold payment of any claims under it, but on further consideration has conelided that it is not his place to go behind the returns and _question the manner in which the bill became v, and 50 is wditing the claims as they are presented. I'his is good news to several people who were induced to sink a few hundred dollars in this enterprise on the expectation and prom- ise of the commissioner that the state would repay the money. OVERCOME: BY THE HEAT, Judee Weaver, the leading member of the board of managers of the impeachment trial, was overcome by the heat and nervous ex: Iaustion while making his argument yester- day, and the senate was obliged to adjourn ull to-morrow to give him a chanee to re- cover.

At the last session of the legislature an appropriation of $4,000 was mude for contingent fund for the governor’s oftice, on top of the regulur and libe appro- riations for ics, postage, furniture, Jooks and blanks, stationery, welephoné and telegraph, and inedentals, This new created fund was not made for le other state office, great or sn the oflice of governor, and it w for that on the plea of the gove L sin, his friends that a contingent fund was a necessity. The fact was cited, to proy the neeessity of a contingent fund, t at the time of the trouble at Camp Dump, Omaha, the governor had no means to pav the veterans, and that in case of a cattle plague, ete., there would be no available means at hand with which to stamp it out. It 1s unne 5 1o add, in the face of a recollection of th last ture, that these argnments prevailed and the $4,000 extra was al- it governor’s oflice, althongh it was freely promised at the time that unle on account of some great emergency the fund would be converted back to the treasury vaults in_toto. Up to the first of last Januar this contingent fund remained practical undisturbed, There was no battle of Camp Dump, no contagions disense ex cuse, and how to get hold of this fund b came a question. This is the way it w worked: A new oflice was crea exeentive chamber, a sort of ) retary to the privat month sinee the tirst of the year a w rant has been drawn against this fund in favor of Edwin N. Mocket, the vouchers upon which the warrants’ were drawn reciting that they for clerical services in the governor's office. The private seeretury will have much more time now to attend to his libel suit against the Beg, secing that he has waxed 50 mightily in oflice us to be able to command a private secretary of his own. As this contingent ated to meet unexpected ex- s of emergency, & presump- tion and conclusion at this pomnt presents itself for consideration. Itis needless to add that the intent of the legislature in granting this $4,000 contingent fund was not to use it in hiring extra clerks Appropriations were mude for every clerk needed in the state house, and the working oflices, not the governor's, would be the ones needing a contingent fund for extra clerk hire if any obtained it. As it is, v $4,000 cmer fund is being raided to pay cler p that was not asked of the legislature, or if asked, was not granted because not needed. 1 the appropriation holds out, a state bootblack might be employed for the private secre- tary with equal good reason, and it would come as closely to the intent of the ap- propriation as does the present custom., CITY BRIEFS The fire depaifmént a\'\\svsvrml the tirst fire alarm Saturday fhat has hefh founded in five weeks, the alarm fmg them a hardware store on Kleventh street, where the flames were extinguished be- fore their arrival; returning to the engine house the boys were su; sed to tind that on fire, but fortunately not far enough along {0 have caused serious damage The “fire originated in a closet on the main tloor adjoining the entrauce, where the weights pass down as the docrs open.
