McKinley*! plurality in Ohio is 21,500.
In the Legislature the Republican plurali
ty on joint ballot will be about 53, and
Foraker and Sherman are now contesting
for the U. 8. Senatorship. Here in Penn

able a member of the Senate as John Sher
man, set aside.
Got. Campbell of Ohio, speaks of the

The vote for the Const. Con. is 173,818,
snd against it 420,506. The Prohibition
vote isless than the 3 per cent of the to
tal, and by the new election law they cannot
get on the state ticket, unless they pre
sent a "nomination paper" signed by at
least one half of one per cent, of Gregg's
rote.
Lawrence Co., casta 5240 votes for Aud
itor General; and the Republican majori
ty ranges from 15,00 to 18,00.
Harvey Snyder's majority in Armstrong
Co. for Dist. Atty. is 650.
Brazil has a revolution on bands, and
two states have seceded. The revolt is
against the arbitrary power assumed by
President Fonseca. All the Central and

End of the Extra Session.
In the Senate Chamber of the State <-f
Pennsylvania at Harrisburg, lastThursda?
and to the Senate assembled|in extraord
nary session, Attorney Gilbert talked a !
day in defense of State Treasurer Boye. ,
and next day, Friday, Attorney Generil
Hansel talked nearly all day for the pros<
cution, and then the Senate adjournc 1
till Tuesday.
On Tuesday morning, Senator Gobi i
offered the following resolution.
Whereas, the Senate of Pennsylvania Lav- j
ing been convened in extraordinary ses' -
ion for Executive business on October 1 >
A. D., 1891, his Excellency, the lioverno,.
did thereupon transmit to this body h -
message, wherein it appears that the
business for which it convened aa aforesai 1
waa the investigation of certain charges < f
official misconduct fully set forth in said
message against Henry K. Boyer, State
Treasurer, and Thomax McCarnant, Auu -
tor General, and against certain Magi
trates of the oity of Philadelphia with a
view to addressing the Governor asking It r
the removal of said officers; and
Whereas, each of said accused office: s
appear and make answer denying the ju. -
iadiction of the Senate to investigate any
of th« said charges and to address tto
Governor as aforesaid, for or by reason < i
anything in said proclamation and raessae '
contained, and, also, denying each an 1
every one of said charges; and
Whereas, this body having postpone 1
the consideration of The Question of Ju
iadiction in the premises, did proceed to
make a ftill and complete investigation < i
Mid charges against Henry K. Boyer,
State Treasurer, being assisted througbou t
its said investigation by the At tome
General of the Commonwealth, and
Whereas, The Senate has now hear!
fall argument upon said question of juri
diotion and has fully considered the sami;
therefore.
Resolved, That as the said charges pre
ferred by the Governor in manner afore
eaid against the said officers are chargts
of misdemeanor in office, for which sai l
officers could be proceeded against boti
by impeachment and by indictment and f,
convicted thereof, in cither of said «) s
could be removed, the Senate bad no ju>
iadiction. under section 4 of article o < i
the Constitution, in this proceeding, to ii
quire into, hear and determine said chargi s
of official misconduct, and to address tho
Governor asking for the removal of sail
officers by reason thereof, and thereby to
deprive said officers of the right of trial by
jury guaranteed to them under article C. < c
to a trial in regular proceedings by in.
peachment in accordance with sections J,
2 and 3 of article 6 of the Constitution.
Before a vote was taken on Mr. Gobin <
resolution, Senator Ross -offered the fo ■
lowing as a substitute:
Whereas, The testimony and evident -
produced before the Senate of Pennsylv -
nia during the progress of the investigi.-
tion as to the official conduct of Henry 1\
Boyer, State Treasurer, in bis managemei t
of bis office and the performance of li s
official duties, discloses the following fac s
to be true.
Fistr-Tbat Henry K. Boyer, who b. s
been State Treasurer of Pennsylvan.a
since May, 1890, although acquainted with
tike mandatory previsions of the act of Ctu
of June, 1883, and amendments thereto,
requiring the balances in the sinking fui d
to oe used for the purchase of the loans «.f
the Commonwealth, or when not practic.
ble, to secure them in United States bond ,
has not invested a dollar of these inoue,' s
in Government bonds during his admint
tration, although he has bad, continual!. ,
an uninvested cash balance in the sink it it
fund of about $2,500,000.
Second—That Henry K. Boyer, while I e
was State Treasurer and a commissioner . f
the sinking fund, arranged with his Casi -
ier, William Livsey and with Deputy Stu n
School Superintendent John Q. Stewart, 10
have warrants for $420,000 drawn upon
the State Treasurer before the close of
the school appropriated one year for t) c
sole purpose of preventing the amount of
money from being paid into the sinkii.g
fund as required by law; and that although
the said warrants were not paid or prr
sented for payment l>elore January 2, 189 i,
tbey were charged upon the books of tie
Treasurer and their amounts deducted
from the balance of the general fund on De
cember 31, 1891.
Third—That although familiar with the
law of May 7, 1889, requiring city and
county treasurers to make quarterly re
ports and payments of all moneys receiv -
ed by them for the Commonwealth, the
said Henry K. Boyer failed and neglects I
to enforce the provisions of the said ac ,
and permitted John Hardsloy, Treasurt r
of the city of Philadelbhia to retain in b ->
bands after the first Monday of October, 1> -
90, large aurna of money collected by biu
for the Commonwealth, and such payments
aa are directed by the said act, unu witl
out any account or settlement, as provided
by the said act, being sent to the Attorney
General for collection, and without intc. -
est or penalties being ad Jed and withoi.t
forfeiture or abatement of commission
and in consequence of these foots a millio 1
of dollars or more has been lost.
Fourth—That, although the act of Junt
1, 1889, regulating the collection of pe
sonal property taxes is in full font as 1
effect, and the said Henry K. Boyer w 1 •
acquainted with its provisions, he nevi r
enforced the provision of the seventeenth
section thereof, and permitted the Trea
urer of Philadelphia to retain in his hanus
the collection of personal property tai<
made by him for 1890 without any p:r -
munt made on the first Mondsy of Sopten
bor, the second Monday of November, < r
until December 30, 1890, leaving still duo
and unpaid a largo proportion of said mon
eys to tbe State at toe time John Bardsley
went to jail, six months after the time li: -
eb by law for their payment.
Fifth—That Henry K. Boyer, while ac
ing as State Treasurer, has exercised h s
own judgment as to whether laws enacted
for the management of his office and re
quiring certain duties for him are wii.o
and practical and has declined to obey
them or enforce tbem, declaring as a rea
son therefore, that tbey did not meet hu
approval, and claiming the right to ho i
in disregard the provisions ot the act ■(
1889, because, as he avers, the eustoiu at d
practice in bin office prior thereto
wholly different.
Sixth—That Henry K. Boyer laijod u>
exercise proper supervision and control
over his cashier William Livsey," and that
he i ■ responsible for the acts of that offi
cer, and
Whereas, These ficts constitute reason
able came for the Removal by the Gover
nor of the said Henry K. Coyer from bis
office of State Treasurer, therefore.
Ro solved, That a committee of seven
members of tho Senate bo appointed to
prepare and report to the Senate forthwith
an address to Hi- Excellency the Governor
recommending the removal by the Gover
nor of Henry K. Boyer from the office of
State Treasurer.
A debate followed which wa* participat
ed in by Senators Bates, McCrcary, Ross,
Gobin, and ethers, end continued till 10
p. m. when the Senate adjourned till next
day.
Wednesday morning Gobin finished his
speech in favor of his "no jurisdiction"
resolution. Senators Robinson, Hall and
others also spoke and then the Senate, by
a strict party vote, adopted Gobin s resolu
tion, which meaus that tho Senate has no
constitutional jurisdiction in the cases of
the two accused state officials.
Then the Senate confirmed Gov. Patti
son's nominations for Notaries Public, ex
cepting that of Jacob Diehl, at Parker, to
whi'jh Senator Showalter objected; and
then adjourned. Tho pay of each Senator
for tho extra session is SSOO and mileage.

From Omaha to Salt Lake City. j
SALT LAKE CITV. UTAH,
October 31, 1801.
Ma. EKITOH: —Our party left Omaha. .
Neb., on Monday, Oct., 'JO. The route up i
the Platte Valley to Platte i» I
through the most fertile pait of the State. :
It is one vast corn-fielil and gracing ex- j
panse. Herd- - of horses and cattle are
everywhere to be seen. The farm im
provements do not compare with those of
the east, but the huts are being replaced 1
by more substantial buildings. From
Xorth Platte to Cheyenne, a distance of
2i» miles, the country is largely unbroken
prairie the great pasture fieid of
southwestern Nebraska. The rainfall hero
is very scant and there is, therefore, little
cultivation. Not a tree or shrub in all
this distance is to be seen, except a few
stnnted pines on the bluffs near the State
Jine. The river for miles was entirely dry.
At Cheyenne we had the first sight of the
Kocky Mountains, some 7j or SO miles dis
tant. Cheyenne is a wealthy, thriving
city but we didn't stop t.i view it.
The run from Cheyenne to Denver, Col.
was largely after dark, so that we lost the
view of tho fertile lands in the neighbor
hood of Greeley—rendered so by irrigation.
Greeley is the great potato patch of the
west. The tuber grows very large and is
of the finest quality—selling at first hands
at 35 cents per hundred pounds, sacked.
We reached Denver at 8:30 p.m., 28th uk.
and stopped at tho Oxford, a first-class ho
tel.
\Co stopped in this city until the a.m. of
the 20th. Denver is a beautiful city. I t's
buildings are grand and substantial, built
largely of red sandstone. It has a splen
did electric moter system, so that one con
ride more miles for a nickle than in any
city in the Union. Long's, Gray's and
Pike's peaks are in full view, the latter 80
miles distant. Gray's peak, t>s miles dis
tant, was seen by the field-glass with sat
isfaction.
The run from Denver, over the Denver
<fc Rio Grande R. R. led ns by Colorado
Springs. This was our .nearest point to
Pike's peak, 14 miles to tho base of the
mountain, and with the claps the cog rail
way to the top could be distinctly seen.
This is a beantiful place. Leaving it we
pass Pueblo and in the p.m. reach Canyon
City on the Arkansas River at the entrance
of the Royal Gorge. This gorge is 7
miles long, has an average width of 40
feet and the rocky pillars reach a height of
272 C feet. The scene is awo inspiring—it
is majestically grand, my pen is too feeble
to describe it's awful grandeur. At one
point the road passes over a bridge sus
pended from three trusses planted i:i
the rocks ou either side of the river.
AtSalida, 219 miles from Denver we
tarry for the night. Leaving Salida, l>y
the Rio Grande narrow-goage—one of the
finest roadbeds we ever traveled over—v e
climb Ouray Mountain until we reach
Marshall Pass, at an elevation of 10.8T.0
feet. Two engines take our tiain of seven
coaches up this steep ascent. The distance
from Salida to the Pass is 8 miles as the
crow flies, but 16 by rail. At the I'ass we
are above the snow line, and within 1">0
feot of the lumber line. Here onr party
alighted, got a few specimens of ores and
jour correspondent made a snowball. The
clescent of the mountain from the Pass was
as interesting as the ascent. At the foot
of the mountain wo entered tho valley of
the Gunnison River.
A short run from Gunnison brings us to
the lllack Canyon. This wild, wierd pan
orama of nature's handiwork is 16 miles
long. All who wished had the benefit of
an observation car. Tho Canyon is enter
ed at Castle Gate —two immense pillars of
rock that standi sentinel and guard this
mighty scenic display. Cantaoura N'eedle,
Chetepa Falls and the Chief's Head are
prominent points, amid overwhelm in;t
grandeur. The highest pinacle is 3000 feet
above the track.
A run of a few hours brings us to Grand
Junction, where we leave tho narrov.
guage. Here wc again lay over until 4:40
a.m., and have a daylight run to Salt Lake
City, 71'J miles from Denver. From Grand
Junction a run of 2 hours bring-' us to th-
State lino ar.d we enter I tali. The coun
try traversed, until wo enter the Utah vni
ley is a barren waste of blufl's with sand
hills and -age brush, on the lower levels.
There in some bold scenery, especially
the Red Canyon aud the Needles, but the
eye wearies with tho desolate waste. A
few lon fly huts are seen in the valleys,aud
the wonder ia how any find subsNtance.
Entering the I'tah valley, which is all
under a good irrigating system, thrift and
fertility are found on every hand. The
valley is from one to several miles ia
width and as we approach Salt Lake City
the fertility increases.
At 4:30 p.m. we euter this great city,the
£ion of the Latter Day Saints.
item we will remain over Sabbath and
Micrd Monday and Tuesday sightseeing.

The success of the past

the depression in business all o\er

We have gone right along
