-T THE PITTSBUEG DISPATCH, MONDAY, MAEOH 25; 1889. ,5 WHERE! TO THE FORE The Democratic Statesman "Will Re new His Fierce Onslaught on THE STATE'S FINAKCIAL SYSTEM. Beaver's Arjiinients ire Answered With Denials and Lojic TEE WODK BEFORE THE LEGISLATURE. Beth tbe AirropriJtltms snd Soldiers' Orplun Mis to be Taken Ep. Tbe appropriation bills and the measure providing for tbe soldiers orphans will bo the most important matters belore the Leg islature this week. The latter will be passed nallr by both Houses. Some attention mar be paid to the charges against the "Western Penitentiary. Mr. "Wherry is ex pected to reveal his ideas ot the State's finances in an elaborate speech. IFttOM X STAFF COBBXErOKDEXT. Hakeisbueg, March 21. Besides the appropriation bills, the most important work of the present week in the Legislature trill be the passage by both Houses of the Grand Army's soldiers orphans' bill. It has passed second reading in the Senate and will pass second reading ic the House to-morrow night and third reading on Tues day. From present appearances, that fea ture of the bill which creates a commission to take charge of the orphans now in the schools will remain unchanged. At least two members of the legislative joint committee on the subject objected to giving the G. A. K. control of the commis sion by giving it hve members in addition to the Department Commander, but the ma jority are very well satisfied to have it that way. The general revenue bill will probably come up in the Senate during the week, but it is not expected it will be materially amended. One amendment, however, has already been prepared, with the approval of the Auditor General, to provide for a pro rata division of the tax on gross receipts, in the case of natural gas companies that di vide business between them by the one sup plying gas to the other. WHEEET ON HIS METTLE. "What should be the sensation of to morrow night is Mr. "Wherry's speech on the sinking fand operations. The members await it with some degree of interest. "Whether Hon. Henry Hall will care to take up the fight for the Sinking Fund Commis sioners, as he did for the general revenue bill !rom practically the same quarter, is a question, as his health lately has been none too good His pluck, however, is much more robust than his health. Something ought to develop Monday night or Tuesday concerning the charges made against the management of the West ern Penitentiary. The management has plenty of friends here to see that it is fairly treated. They are not confined to the Alle gheny members. Senator Keyburn, Chair man of the Senate Appropriations Commit tes, says the latest allegations arc all news to him. Mr. Wherry has reprimed bis gun and is ready to fire off the sinking fund load to morrow night when he calls up his resolu tion. In answer to Governor Beaver's state ment published inSaturday's DISPATCH, Mr. "Wherry has this to say: IN ASSWXE TO BEAVER. The Governor says that the sinking fund commission bought Government 4's when they nere selling for less than State J's. If.he means that they wero selling for less in actual pre mium, the statement is utterly incorrect. Tbe "United States 4's were bought for 122 and up, and the State 5"s have never been as high as that If he means that the 4s were selling at a rate which realized more per cent per annum upon tbe investment than the 5"s, be might have added that the 4's daring nearly all the transactions of the two fiscal years 1886-7-8 and 9 were selling at a rate which would have real ized a much higher per centage per annum than tbe 4's at the market rate, or rather at that which the State bought them. This is just what was the trouble. The State's 5s were bought at a much higher pre mium upon the. basis of interest realized, than Government 4s, and this was, in part, the way in one v was lost The Governors statement that the $1,000,000 of bonds were sold in 1889 because tbe sale of $10,000 of them, for in stance, bearing bnt 4 per cent interest, conld purchase 15,000 of the State bonds, upon which per cent was being paid, is an ingeni ous statement As a matter of fact not one dollar of the money realized from the sale ever went to buy a State bond, but was put into the already large cash surplus, where it remains to the present day. A POOB ABGUMEXT. As to his statement that the United States buys Its own bonds at a large premium,thls is on ly partially true,but if it were wholly true it is a poor argument for the United States has no option. It can't do anythingelse with its surplus, whereas the State, to avoid the danger of patting tbe Sinking Fnnd Commission at the mercy of the holders of State bonds, passed a law under the direct provisions of the State Constitution giving them specifically the option of baying United States bonds, and made it tbeir doty to do so, a duty which they have almost criminally disregarded. If it is true that tbe Commission is now buy ing State bonds at 107 it is doing right for at that rate the investment pays them over 2 per cent It is curious that not until the racket about the mismanagement of the funds was raised, have tbe Commissioners been doing such good business for the State.
