is w loomed into our sanctum ths
week. It is uuwsv and brillrmi

voted to education and its editor
aptly says; “Our teachers in order

On Sunday I. s , at Berlin, says a
cablegram, a de-iitute locksmith’s
apprentice named Bochnicke threw
a stone through the well known
corner window in the Impeiial
Palace at which Emperor William
is accustomed to sit. He was ar
rested. His action it is supposed
was inspired by a desire to attract
attention to his needy condition
or to secure notoriety. He suc
ceeded in making an immediate
sensation, and a great <r..wd assem
bled near the window. The Em
peror was not struck and he appear
ed at the window to assure the peo
pie of his entire safety and was
cheered ent h usiast ica 11 y.
The suggestion that it w u'd
accomplish more re il good to the
co'ored people to have the amount
due depoitn: a of the defunct b reed
mao’s Bank, go to the endowment
of an educational or charitable inati
tution on a national basis, should
commend itself to the jodgment of
the public so as to command a suf
ficient number of votes in both
houses to warrant the passage of
the law.— [People’s Advocate,
Washington.
We don’t know the ni-me of the
h statesman who fathers the proposi-
F tion suggested by the Advocate.
We cannot see how Bro. Cromwell
I could endorae such a movement,
it strikes ns that the defrau led
depositors in this great swindle
would like to be heard from on the
question. It is very probable how
ever, that when Congress acts in
the near future it will be in such a
way that the money will goto those
who are entitled to receive it.

FREEDMEN'S BANK AF

lion. W. L Tirnluilm, Comptrol

It shows on D *••. mba 4th a

government to assume the li ibili

The Cmiptroller is quo el as
saying it would seem proper t.»
■Pow at least three yeais for the
o'eseutation mid auditing of these
claims, and sugges's Jan. 1, 1890,
a$ the term of final liquid item. He
is inclined to think that the esti
mate of his immediate predecessor
that $1,000,000 would be sufficient
to settie all demands, hk< 1 to be
proved,*s correct. In hisreporty
the Comptroller reflects strongly <m
the former managers ol the institu
tion, He says that the Congression
al investigation in 1879 revealed
nothing but a hopeless tangle in-
Mplved and disputed re< konings.
Nearly every man of position and
means had wiihdrawn preparatory
to the collapse in 1874 and the few
that remained had never given ade
quate attention to the concern.
Some of the active managers, the
Comptrollers says, come it ider
strong suspicion of di-hone-ty, yet
no criiriiual proceedings have ever
been taken, nor has recovery been
attempted through the proce.-s of
the law.

OF # CHICAGO #
In Circulation and Political Influence In the
Leading Republican Newspaper
TN THE NORTHWEST.
THE INTER OCEAN has from the befirinnlnsr been
the defender of home institutions and American
ideas. It is the advocate of eaual riflfhtß for all be
fore the law. of protection to American labor, and
o* - the idea that America is for Americans-not neo
essarlly Americans by birth, but true citizens of the
Republic. It believes in the West and Western
men, holds to the idea that the future seat of em
pire will be in the Mississippi Valley, and is bold
and a.'trfessive in its opposition to the unholy alli
ance between the money-changers of New York
City and The States lately in rebellion.
THF INTER OCEAN is earnestly in favor o' the
Republican party'because it believes the principles
of that party are correct, and that, honestly car
ried out, they will best protect the rights and ad
vance the interests of the whole people. It is not,
however, a blind follower, but Is always ready to
denounce Republican either In high
-•r low places
THE INTER OCEAN has always maintained that
’.he Nation is under an obligation to the soldiers of
he lute war who jeopardized their lives to protect
it rion*. armed treason, which it can never repay
xnd, consequently, has advocated the establish
ment of Soldiers’ Homes and the enactment of
such pension laws as would leave no disabled vet
eran in want.
a N. wspnner THE INTER OCEAN is not ex
elled in rhe United States. Aside from the service
,»f the A.s’ociated Press, in which it holds a mem
hersh.p, it keeps a lar«re body of Special Corre
