glish world stealing which has occur,
red in tho lust six years, or nearly
half a million a year.
I dtjsiro that tho niombers of this
houtio, and tho peoplo will not con
found this statement with tho misnp
jlication of the sinking fund to which
I will now cull thciir attention." With
out taking up your time by comment
ing upon the antoni'ments to the con
stitution of 1S57, or by attempting to
show the wisdom of inserting in the
fundamental luw of the state, a pro
vision creating a special fund which
must be sacredly guarded and sacredly
applied to the payment of the publie
lebt, I will call your attention to the
fact thai tho financial officers of tho
commonwealth have utterly disregard
ed tbe plain provisions 0 the consti
tution, and tho imperative require
ments of the law in this respect.
By turning to the last official roport
of the state treasurer, we find on puge
27 that the balanco in the sinking
iund November 80, 1871, was 3,478,.
SJ8.40 j and on page 88 that tho bal
ance in tho fund November 80, 1872,
was (3,406,614.03. Why should this
'large amount of money romnin'in tho
sinking fund instead of boing applied
as the constitution and laws requiro
to tbe payment of tho public debt f
VTby should tho people of tho state be
swindled out of the interest on this
large amount f For if this money bad
been applied as It. should have been,
the interest bearing dubl of tho BliUo
: would have been reduced that much
jnoru, and the tax payer of the state
relieved from tho annual payment of
$208,736.30. What explanation can
the.CommissioDcrs of the sinking fund,
or the stato treasurer give why this
iuuhvji uui uuk uvea aipiiuuaa rvquttea
by the constitution f They may say
lhat it is unwise and impolitio to pay
the public debt more rapidly than they
have beeq doing. They are not, how
ever, tbe proper judges of the wisdom
or propriety of the rapid payment of
the pDlio debt, lue msqpO settled
that qaeabion of policy nvvetsu they rati
fied the am 014! awrits to the constitu
tion of 1857. Why, then, is this mon-
ey not applied as tbe constitution re
quires T Is it used by the "Treasury
King'' for we hoar there is such an
institution, among numerous other
'rings" hero is the interest on this
large amount of money used to ena
ble this ring to perpetuate its rulo and
power at tho state capital f If it is,
at is timo the people of the stnlo should
understand it. Had as tins would be,
oQicial delinquency great as it would
bo, tho trutli is still worse. No such
u amount of money is actually in the
niiiKing Iund, although shown to be
by tfco sinking Iund accounts. If you
will turn to pago oight of tho last
treasurer's roport you will find tho
whole balanco in the troasury Novem
ber 30, 1871, including tho sinking
fund and all other funds of tho com
monwealth, was, only 81,476,808 50,
and on pago ten that tho balance in
.tho treasury November 30, 1872, was
only $1,482,455.01. The difference bo
tween lhosoamouuts,nnd tho amounts
reported as being in tho Binking fund,
bus been applied to the payment of
tho current expenses of the govern
ment In pulpahlo disregard of tho con
stitution, in open contempt of tho re
quirements of tho law, and in plain
violation of tho official oaths of the
financial agonts of the Mule. In ad
dition to this, thcro is tho undcnialilo
fact that for the lust several years
there) has been an average balanco of
one and a half millions of dollars lying
idly iu the treasury, earning nothing,
drawing no interest for tho benefit of
the tuxpsyors. The interest on this
. sum, at six per cont., would be $90,
000 a year.
Tho facts and figures Which I have
given bavo been obtained by a ea reful
study and comparison of the pub
lished summaries of tho flnsneinl op
rations of the state from year to year.
Tbeso summarios bsve been prepared
by skillful accountant, interested to
ooverupall discrcpancicsand evidences
of defalcation. Could wo penotrale
the neorets of the treasury department,
and subjeet the itomir.ed acconnls and
vouchers to thoroughly competent and
honest accountants, I havo no doubt
dovelopsmcnts would be mado which
would sink in cjk'iibtU lulo compara
tive insignificanco. No wonder the
peoplo themselves desiro to elect tho
slate treasurer, and little loss wonder
is it that nndor the provisions of this
bill, drawn in the inlorejt of tho trens
ury ring, the people are to bo bulkud
in their wishes for another wholo year.
Mr. Speaker, yoo will probably
agroo with me that it is not tho duty
nor the province of gentlemen on this
side of the house to fix the individual
responsibility for all this. During
the last six years every member of
tho board of sinking fund commis
sioners, the several state treasurers,
tho auditor general, and the oxecutive
belonged to your party, none to ours.
Who is responsible for this grand lar
eeny, who Is responsible for the lalsl
fiaction of the roeords and tho misap
plication of the sinking fund f We
leave lli gentlemen on the other side
of tho house to dotormlne this qucs
tion. If our late executive wss dore
hot in his dutv oor late auditor general
niMiiii navo aotccterl and prevented
it. hi ther tho sinking fund com
missioners, w bother the sevorul state
treasurers, are rcspotihiblo, we losvo
you to determine, and to fix th (mil.
vidual responsibility in tho maitor.
One thing, howovor, is but fair to
state, that the irrcater dinnretiantdiia
.both In tho paymeut of tho principal
and Iniereat upon the pnhlio dbt
'.-:ur utnug tiio administration of the
treaty ar'.ui'i.i hy tUr gri.tlrtnmi
who oonduoted that famous corres
pondence with August Belmont, the
auditor ol tbe new political philoso
phy, tbe main principle or wmcn is
expressed in bis own language, "Ad
dition, Jjwtsion ana auence." river
sluce he made tbeaddilion and division,
be and bis triends bavo maintained
the most profound silence. I now ak
and demand tbat contlcmen upon the
othor side of the bouse shall speak for
him, and explain his figures and ao
counl for the falsification of tbe record
contained In three annual messages of
tbo governor. ,
JNow, Air. Speaker, 1 shall vote
against this bill, because I desiro a
more immediate inquiry into the con
dition of the treasury than can possi
bly bo had under its provisions. I be
lieve the peoplo domundod this when
they ratified tho lust amendment to
tho constitution by such a decided
vote. 1 further believe it to be a vio
lation of that amendment to continue
tho present treustirer in power for a
full yoar after tho expiration of his
present term by legislative action,
ilad the senate and house of represen
tatives met in joint convention on the
third Monday of January list and
proceeded to elect a slato treasurer
for tho term commencing on tho first
Monduy.of May, 1873, and ending on
tho first Monday of May, 1S74, every
ono would udtnit our action would
have been la opon contempt of the re
quirements of the recent amendments
to the constitution. 1 deny that wo
have a riirltt to do in this indirect
manner what wo were prohibited from
doing direutly and openly. Thucfl'cct
of this bill is undoubtedly to continue
Mr. Jlackcy in otlico lor a lull year
after the expiration of his present
term. When wo como to the proper
section of tho bill, I, or some oliior
gentleman on this side of tho house
will oner an amendment to sumo out
"tho first Monday of Muy" as tho lime
when tho treasurer shull enter upon
the duties of bis oQico, and substitute
tho first Monday of December, tbo
beginning of the fiscal year. This the
Iioubo can and should do, although
the majority muy be of the opinion
that it is unwiso and impolitic to pro
vide for a special election before tbe
oxpiralion ofthe present term. But I
deny that the legislature has the right
to continue tho present treasurer in
office for any length of time, much
loss a full year, in opon and palpatio
contempt of the decree of the peoplo
of this commonwealth.
A Convenient Table.
' It frequently occurs that when ono
ofthe dwellers in this lumbercountry
is called upon to convey an idea of the
yield of tiwbor and lumber on our
elroams to a stranger, be bnos it o
easy mnttor to make it intelligible
The following luhle can be euoily re
membered from its simplicity, and
will answer for all ordinary estimates :
(iood average titubor land supports
about twenty flvo trees to tho acre;
good average trees will cut fivo logs
each, and thoso will average fivo logs
to the thousand lect, or fivo thousand
logs to tho million feet of sawed Inm
W, board measure. This is meant
for white pino alone. Iloot'ock grows
much denser and cuts seldom over
three logs to the tree. The average
of lumber, lnard measure, will run bo
low that of pine.
In most luuiberinr districts where
jiiVcelumboTM manufactured the stand
ard titoatture for logs is ID inches di-
ainoter and 13 feet long, which gives
tun standard Inches.
In Canada the government stand
srd for selling slumpage is by reckon.
ing thrco logs to the thousand feet
Tho expression wo often hear among
timber operators, tbat a stick "will go
double, "throe limes," "lour limes,
etc., means that the number of cubical
feet in the slick is thai mulliplo of too
linear leet.
ihus, a blick measurlne 11 bv 13
inches "goes ouco," because it contains
j cubical feet when twonty feet in
length, 21 cubical feet when 21 feet
long. A stick 12 by 12 inches con
tains 20 cubical feet when 20 feet
long, and to on as in the Grst example.
A stick 1G by 13 inches contains 40
cubical feet whon 20 foot long, 42 cubi
cal feet when 21 foct long, or, it "goes
doublo." A slick 17 by 17 inches also
"goes double." A suck 24 by 24
inches "goes four timos." Williams

that successively follow are instant
