WHAT WE PAY TO BE GOVERNED.
During the census year 1890, according to recent publications, the people of the United States paid to support their national, State and local governments, including their postal service and schools, the enormous amount of $915,954,055, distributed as follows:
National government, including postal service... $352,218,614
State, Territorial and District, except for public common schools... 77,105,911
County, except for public common schools, partly estimated... 114,575,401
Municipal, except for public common schools, partly estimated... 223,988,502
For public common schools... 139,065,607
The amount included as "partly estimated" in the above statement is less than seven percent of the aggregate involved. Of the counties and municipalities not reported, and for which estimates were made, the tax levy constituting the principal source of revenue was known in every case, and the expenditures of these places would be practically restricted in amount to receipts from this source, thus indicating very closely the amount expended.
The objects of the expenditures are reported as follows:
Pensions and other charities... $146,895,671
Educational purposes and public common schools... $145,883,115
plotted a design for one of the nine denominations of new greencups which are shortly to be issued by the Treasury Department. This design will create something of a seasation when it gets before the public, both from its novelty and its beauty. Its character is wholly different from anything heretofore produced and used in the United States. The one-dollar silver certificate, which has already been approved, and will soon be in circulation, represents, seated at the left, an ideal figure of motherhood, by which stauda a small youth, who is being taught the principles of democratic government. At the extreme right is an open book on which may be plainly read the first twenty lines of the Constitution. In the middle ground is a view of the capital city, so take present both the Washington monument and the Capitol building.
As a border is a series of wreaths it are printed the names of men promine in American history. Not only do these twenty names include men celebrated in war and statesmanship, but there are three men of letters, Poe, Hawthorne and Irving. The name of Washington stands in the center at the top. It is expected that there will be considerable criticism in literary circles over the placing of Poe on the list instead of Longfellow. The whole design of the bill is so artistically worked out that it cannot fail to make the handsomest greenback that has ever been printed.
THE PRESIDENT ASSAILED.
WASHINGTON, July 24. — Perhaps no more remarkable scene was ever witnessed in the United States Senate than that occurred to-day for two and a half hours. Senator Gorman, the Democratic political leader on the floor, delivered his speech against the President in defense of the Senate tariff bill. The galleries were packed to the doors and so great was the interest in Senator Gorman's speech that the members of the House flocked to the Senate end of the Capitol, and the House being unable to hold a quorum adjourned.
Senator Gorman, with a frankness that amazed those present, discussed party secrets, opened the door to party cancuses and flashed his search light into the dark corners of party history. The President was sailed with keenness and vigor by the leader of his party on the floor of the Senate. The Senator defended the Senate tariff bill and its preparation and charged in terms that everybody knows that the fiddle deal with the trust funds in a manner lated to exhaust very soon even benefit to the little Cherokees. Keeps have made themselves revered earth's most profitee people owing that every child born within ten years gets $265. As a direct result that more than 3,000 been born in eighteen months past March, which gives a birth to a married couple in the Nation that all the Cherokee Indians owe them found, were entitled to the disbursement caused a great prodigal sons and daughters.
“King” McManus, the notorious cisco tough, fighter and ward pionter on warpath again, and this is to reach the jail he has so far escaped. A few days ago his brother commonly called the “Gossoon,” by Charley Sweeney, the baller ever since then the “King” has wild spree. On Wednesday she was buried in Oakland, and she could not carry all the carriages people anxious to attend the funeral was a big funeral, but the “King” satisfied. He wanted high mass in St. Patrick’s church, regarding pause. The church authorities some reason, and Friday night threw champagne battles through dows of the rectory; next door to that That did not have desired eldest next night he tried cobble-stones; more than the priests could stand applied to the police for protection rectory is now guarded by officers are looking for the “King.” SAN FRANCISCO, July 23. — Manus, the “king” of the Potter’s hands of the police. He was at night at Market and Third street rants charging him with three crimes, and the complainant in case G.J. Gray, parish priest of St. Church. Detectives had been looked Manus all the afternoon, but they find him until early in the evening was seen crossing Market street; we ladder on his back; going toward aminer office.

Including only the deficiency in the postal revenue, the amount of which was paid from general revenues, the per capita of national State and local expenditures for 1890 as shown above was $13.65. With the known increased expenditures, however, by the national government since 1890 for pensions, it is safe to say that the people of the United States now expand through their several governments one billion of dollars per annum, or about $16 per capita.
The first and largest item of expenditure in 1890, it will be seen, was for pensions and charities. In the archives of no other government can such a record be found, and it challenges the correctness of the oft-repeated assertion that republics are ungrateful.
The next item in amount is for public common schools, for which purpose nearly as much was spent as in caring for the ex-soldiers and the unfortunate of every class. The amount of the two items, $292,478,780, constituted nearly one-third of the total expenditures in 1890, excluding those for the postal service, and of the remainder a large portion was spent for constructing roads, bridges, ditches and sewers, for protection against fire and disease, for improving rivers, harbors, constructing new buildings and works, supporting and educating the Indians, and in caring for public parks. None of these expenditures, however, worthy and desirable they may be, are necessarily indisputable to the maintenance of a government.
Omitting these and like items, the normal expenditures of the government shrink to a small percentage of the total, and may be fairly classed as follows:
Salaries separately reported: $37,552,655
Military purposes: $35,587,611
Police: $23,934,376
Judiciary: $23,071,075
Public buildings, care and maintenance: $17,950,177
Executive department: $16,770,801
Naval establishment: $15,174,403
Penal and reformatory institutions (net): $9,226,905
Congress and State Legislatures: $10,485,836
Foreign intercourse: $1,648,277
Miscellaneous (say): $10,000,000
Total: $201,352,116
Or a per capita of $32 instead of $16, a difference to a family of five of about $64 per annum.

It will be seen that the tax on real and personal property furnished nearly one-half of the necessary revenue,customs about one-fourth Internal revenue one-sixth;the remainder came from various sources.
In view of the important position the tariff laws have occupied in national politics for many years,the relative amount of revenue from customs seems surprisingly small.The owners of real estate bear the lion's share of the burden of taxation;but this class of property embraces 60 per cent of the wealth of the country,and determined by the Eleventh Census,and perhaps its share of the burden was therefore none too great.

A BOOM IN BABIES.
Fort Gibson (I.T.), July 24.-The fourth of the great payments of Cherokee-strip money to the Indians is in progress here.Treasurer Starr will distribute more than $1,000,000 in cash to the Indians of this district,each man woman and child receiving $265.The same great crowd of fakirs,robbers,horse traders and gamblers is here that has been present through the former payments at Talequa,Vinita and Claramore.Catch-penny devices of every description are being worked to secure some of the money that now flows so abundantly.
Naturally the distribution of nearly $7,000,(00),the amount paid by the United States for the strip directly to the Indians.would be an inducement to lawlessness and crime anywhere particularly in this country.Since the first payment began at Talequah.on June 4th,nine killings have resulted from枪斓和 robberies,growing out of disbursements,and robberies of Indians after returning to their homes in the mountainous districts have been common.
The past six weeks have proven a golden harvest time for merchants in this Nation who have for two years given the Cherokee credit upon their "strip" claims.The prices charged have been exhorbitant,yet the long-delayed collections have been pressed with far greater success than many anticipated.Merchants erect their booths near the place of payment and tackle their debtors as soon as they are seen to emerge with their money.Trouble is seldom experienced in securing a settlement,and when it does come the unwilling debtor is generally an Indian with white blood.

everybody knows that the fiduciaries will deal with the trust funds in a manner calculated to exhaust very soon everything of benefit to the little Cherokees. The Cherokee have made themselves rivals of the earth's most profitee people owing to the fact that every child born within the last two years gets $265. As a direct result it is estimated that more than 3,000 babies have been born in eighteen months preceding last March, which gives a birth to almost every married couple in the Nation. The fact that all the Cherokee Indians of this nation, wherever found, were entitled to share in the disbursement, caused a great influx of prodigal sons and daughters.
"King" McManus, the notorious San Francisco tough, fighter and ward politician, is on the warpath again, and this time is unable to reach the jail he has so frequently escaped. A few days ago his brother Con, commonly called the "Gossoon," was killed by Charley Sweeney, the ball player, and ever since then the "King" has been on a wild spree. On Wednesday the "Gossoon" was buried in Oakland, and the ferry boat could not carry all the carriages that held people anxious to attend the funeral. It was a big funeral, but the "King" was not satisfied. He wanted high mass celebrated on St. Patrick's church, regardless of excuse. The church authorities refused for some reason, and Friday night McManus threw champagne battles through the windows of the rectory, next door to the church, that did not have the desired effect, so the next night he tried cobble-stone. This was more than the priests could stand, and they applied to the police for protection. The rectory is now guarded by officers, while there are looking for the "King."
SAN FRANCISCO, July 23.—Frank McManus, the "king" of the Potrero, is in the hands of the police. He was arrested last night at Market and Third streets on warrants charging him with three separate crimes, and the complainant in each was Rev. J. Gray, parish priest of St. Patrick's church. Detectives had been looking for McManus all the afternoon, but they failed to find him until early in the evening, when he was seen crossing Market street, with a small adder on his back, going toward the Examiner office.
He said he was going to post a bulletin in front of the Examiner building, denouncing the action of the priests of St. Patrick's church for not saying requiem mass at the funeral of his brother "Gossoon," who

Hon. Allen S. Matthews, a member of the New York Assembly, has been arrested, charged with smuggling wool. Recently his father, P. A. Matthews, aged 80 years, was arrested on the charge of smuggling about 100,000 pounds of wool, the duty on which would amount to $12,000. Other arrests will follow.
Letters received from Rio Grande do Sul confirm the reports of brutal slaughter of prisoners by both the rebels and the loyal troops. M. Buetta, a French engineer, who was captured by Peixotto's men, was first employed in raising the sunken warship Aquidaban. He was then made to dig his own grave, after which he was shot by his captors.
It is now certain that 140 persons went down with the Italian steamer Columbia, which collided with the Russian steamer Vladmir in the Black Sea a few days ago. All the evidences inculpates the Russian seamen, who deliberately abandoned the Columbia and her crew and passengers to their fate.
Eight years at hard labor in Folsom state prison is what two Italian counterfeiters John Diugghuno and Joe Triganni got from Judge Ross in the United States district court in Los Angeles last week. These men, with two other Italians, were arrested by the police detectives several weeks ago in a but at the end of Temple street cable road. They were making counterfeit coins in large numbers. They were sentenced to four years each for counterfeiting and four years each for altering five-dollar gold pieces.
A few days ago the Riverside Board of Education adopted a resolution abolishing the office of Superintendent of Schools, a position which Dr. Eli F. Brown had held for the past two years. The resolution declared that the action of the Board was taken for the sake of economy. It now appears on the admission of two members of the Board that they were largely influenced in taking this course by charges of gross immorality against the Superintendent.
There is much reticence regarding the charges, but it is said country. The members are wanted in nearly every large city in the United States, and their stealing amounts to an immense sum in the aggregate. They began operations about five years ago.
Vallejo was visited by another fire Sunday evening, and it was undoubtedly of incidentary origin. The fire destroyed the electric light works. The building was soaked with the oil used on the machinery, and burned with great rapidity. The walls were fireproof, and the firemen succeeded in keeping the flames confined within them. The plant cost $40,000, but was recently sold to E. J. Wilson for $1,000 by the sheriff. It has been proven that the fire-bell rope was tampered with on Friday night before the schoolhouse fire. The people are thoroughly aroused by these fiendish attempts to destroy the town, and if the culprits are caught a telegraph pole and a rope will be brought into requisition.
Last Monday night Miss Annie Henry, a nurse at St. Mary's Hospital in San Francisco, was shot and wounded in the arm by a man, and for some reason the hospital people used every means to keep shooting a secret. The facts have just been brought to light. The woman was shot by James Crowley, whose attentions she had refused.
The story is a romantic one. Some time ago she was a nurse in the City and County Hospital. There she attended Crowley, a patient, and showed him many kindnesses. Crowley was so grateful that he fell in love with her, and when she went to St. Mary's Hospital, frequently tried to see her, but she repulsed his advances. On Monday night, as she was returning to the hospital with some friends, he met her, and when she tried to avoid him, he shot at her. One of her friends seized the man's arm in time to divert his aim, and instead of killing the nurse, he merely wounded her.
The Republican County Convention held in San Bernardino Saturday was a battle of boasies, resulting in the supremacy of Joe Brown, who dished Wickham at Sacramento. In the fight for Supervisor, Victor and I.W. Lord, the present incumbents, were overwhelmingly defeated. Assemblyman John C. Lynch was renominated, defeating T.H. Goff, Boss Drew's man. Superior Judge John L. Campbell was also renominated. After a bitter fight Frank B. Daley of San Bernardino, Boss Brown's candidate, was nominated for District Attorney. The other nominees are J. Wallace F. Diss of Redlands for Clerk, Auditor and Re-
There are looking for the "King."
San Francisco, July 23—Frank McManus, the "king" of the Pottero, is in the hands of the police. He was arrested last night at Market and Third streets on warrants charging him with three separate crimes, and the complainant in each was Rev. J. Gray, parish priest of St. Patrick's church. Detectives had been looking for McManus all the afternoon, but they failed to him until early in the evening, when he was seen crossing Market street, with a small ladder on his back, going toward the Examiner office.
He said he was going to post a bulletin in front of the Examiner building, denouncing one action of the priests of St. Patrick's church for not saying requiem mass at the general of his brother, the "Gossom," who was shot in the third-street saloon about a week ago; also defend his action in taking revenge as he did when he threw beer bottles and doubles them through the windows of the priest's residence.
McManus was still suffering from the effects of his debauchery, which he entered upon when he commenced to mourn the sudden killing off of his brother, whom he characterized as a hero, but he submitted quietly to the arrest and smiled at being the center of attraction when a crowd collected to see him custodian of a policeman.
At the Southern Police Station he was charged with disturbing the peace, with making threats against life, and with malicious mischief. He walked quietly to the cell, and calmly went to sleep when the door was closed.
A sensual elopement from Knoxville, ann., culminated in the equally sensational treat at Louisville, of one of the principals of the affair. Mrs. Mattie Landes, a fine-looking woman aged 50, is in jail. William Lovell, a well-dressed man of 43, is in all at the police station, and in an adjoin-cell is C. S. Jennings, a fashionable young chap. The three were arrested on warrant sworn out by G. W. Landes of Knoxville, charging them with criminal innocence. Landes daughter, a beautiful young woman of 19 years, had been receiving attention from Jennings against his will. Landes also suspected his wife of being on much too friendly terms with Loveill. On July 6th the whole party sloped, taking with them two smaller children. Loveill sent to Louisville with Mrs. Landes and the children. The older daughter was accompanied by Jennings. Landes spent nearly two weeks searching for them. He secured assistance of detectives, who succeeded locating the guilty parties. The oldestaughter was not locked up, being left to care of the younger children.
War between China and Japan is considered certain. China continues to make preparations to assert her claims of rights in areas, and from present indications, it is urged war will be inevitable, unless Japancedes from the position she has hitherto maintained. Orders were recently issued 12,000 Chinese troops to prepare for deverture to Cores. The preparations were friedied completed, and on Friday last the soldiers went on board the transports that will convey them to the peninsula. To ward against contingencies, the transports are conveyed by eight gunboats, the commanders of which were instructed to fire on the Japanese, should the latter attempt to obstruct the landing of the Chinaui Warlike preparations are also being made in other directions. A strong body of troops will shortly leave for the Li Che Islands. It is the government's intention to deploy Canton and Nankin fleets in crossing the Japanese coast, if actual hostilities are commenced. Orders have been put to every Chinese province, calling upon all of them to furnish 20,000 troops to the support of the government.
A strange so-called religious sect has just brought to light by the burning of the hands of the police.

The Vallejo High School building was totally destroyed by fire, and circumstances have developed which make it almost certain that it was a case of incendiarism. The water companies had been making new connections during the day, and most of the water had been shut off. The force was only sufficient to throw a stream fourteen feet, and though the irremen worked desperately and bravely, they could not check their flames. The structure was one of best in Vallejo, and was the principal school building. It was built in 1872 at a cost of $20,000. The greatest regret is felt over the loss of library which had been accumulating for years, and its money value is estimated at about $40,000. It felt that it can hardly be replaced. The loss on the furniture and apparatus is about $2,000.
Eight months ago an East Oakland carpenter named Caldwell became suddenly insane, and after an examination beforethe local commissioners was committed tothe State asylum at Stockton. His hallucination was that he had become a man of wealth, and that he had an immense amountof money in the bank.

A strange so-called religious sect has just been brought to light by the burning of the church of the Sanctified at Frankfurt, in Wisconsin. The church was burned by the people of the town because they do not like the denomination. The sect was started by Bishop Joseph Bernard Lynch, who begged in Chincoteague Island, where the nomination was started, Lynch claimed the Christ he could walk on the water, and some time he deceived the people into believing it. He had a lot of boards made up a platform and placed them about four inches under the water, and on these he looked until some one removed the boards, and the "bishop" was nearly drowned. When the people of the Island ran him away, and he went to Frankfort, where he published the church whose building has now been burned. One member of the church preached each Sunday, and after marching a weird kind of dance was held till the people dropped from exhaustion, one ever saw such a dance before. The nature of the religion to which the people in the town most objected was that the church thought it was necessary for a man and a woman to preach sanctification to her, and that a man's own wife would do. In this way they got to trading their wives and sisters, and as a consequence church was burned.

The Rev. P. M. Fiskburn, late manager of the State-street Mission, after a short and brilliant career as a slum evangelist at St. Louis, has departed leaving an indelible mark behind him. Much comment about his conduct has arisen, and an investigation was ordered by the ladies and gentlemen who have supported the Mission and who paid him $100 per month for his services. This culminated in a meeting held at which Fishburn was present and his shortcomings were unfolded before him. He was asked to make his defense, but he had nothing to say. He was then given the alternative of leaving town within the next five hours or going to jail. He left town. The recital of the sins to which he was compelled to listen was lengthy, including the defrauding of saluenne, mortgaging furniture that had not been paid for and which was not his own, immoralness, drunkenness and dissembling. But there was one other offense that ranked deeper than all the rest. It was the presentation by alleged converted variety actresses from concert halls of the slums of numerous of their specialities on the platform of the Central Christian church. They were introduced by Fishburn to the members of the congregation who paid admission fees, as having succumbed to his eloquence and forsaken their evil ways. But what was the horror of those who had been espousing him to learn, during the recent investigation, that the variety performers had never been converted, never would be, and had performed at the church merely to "change their luck," as it were, and turn a little change. It appears that Fishburn saw that they were remunerated for their endeavors.
Thomas C. Boolean, the man recently arrested on numerous charges in Chicago, and taken to Denver for trial, has made a confession to burglary, forgery and thefts of the United States mail, perpatrated by the James K. Stratton gang, in Denver, by which its members realized amounts the extent of which is not known. Letters were abstracted from mail boxes and negotiable paper seized and raised by Boolean, the amounts secured and divided. The Denver banks were serious losers thereby. For these crimes they were run down three years ago, and Stratton and Boolean were arrested in Georgia, but Boolean escaped from the officials at Atlanta, it is supposed by bribery, and the Sheriff at that point is now being sued for $10,000 in consequence. Straton was sentenced to twenty-one years in prison. He served two years, when he escaped, and is still at large. The gang numbered thirteen, nine of whom are now serving terms in different parts of the county was so crushed as to leave most valuable part in the tailings, which when worked over by the mill, yielded to these conspirators an additional profit of $2,500,000. There is also a complaint that Makay, Jones and Flood caused to be issued to themselves 33,300 shares of stock, at $1 per share, which stock was afterward worth open market $87,916. Fox demands an account of all these transactions, and judgment shall show.

Alexander Craw, quarantine officer of State Board of Horticulture, was tied up in Santa Barbara for three weeks during the railroad strike, and as a result the orchestrates of Southern California have met with somewhat of a disappointment. He remained at the olive ranch of Elwood Cooper president of the board for a few days during which he packed and prepared for shipment 400 colonies of black lady bags which were intended for applicants throughout the southern and central counties. At about that time the general tie-up was inaugurated and after waiting for over two weeks for an opportunity to distribute his collection, the condition of the beetles caused by their close confinement was found to be such as necessitate their release. The insects are principally raised on Mr. Cooper's ranch. Two years ago he received ten pairs from Australia, and within a short time after being liberated on the olive trees they were entirely cleaned from the destructive black scale which had formerly infested the entire orchard. Last October the board distributed nearly 500 colonies, consisting of from twenty-five to fifty beetles in each. The bugs reproduced with such astonishing rapidity that the laying out of one colony in the average orchard will clean out the damaging pests within a year. Mr. Craw intends returning south next month and will then make another attempt to kill the demands from orchardists who desire unavoidably disappointed on this occasion. Another beetle, known as Rizuca Blua Bebella, which was also imported from Australia last year, is reported by Mr. Craw to have proven a great service in cleaning infected orchards. It is smaller than the lady bug although its work is quite as effectual.
