MoRE KILLING.-Two fatal ARRAYS have occur
red since our last issue. On Saturday night last,
at Canon City, John Dunn cut Jeremiah and
John Dady so badly that the former died the day
following. At Big Flat, on Sunday night, Ed
ward Line, better known us "COmmodore, y
cut John Mcnamara. who died in ten minutes
Line was lodged in Jail on Monday night. Dunn
has not yet been arrested. 1t is the general be-
lief that Line acted in selfdefensc in killing
Mcnamara, while the affair at Canon City seems
TO have been nothing less than premeditated,
cold-blooded murder. Dunn bad previously
threatened the lives of the brothers Dady. and
from what we can learn be took the earliest op-
portunity to carry his threat into effect We
only hope that he will be caugh! aud dealt with
by the law.

LATTER-DAY DEMoCRACY.-There was time
when Democrats prided themselves upon the
openness Of their meetings. But then Democracy
meant something besides aid and comfort to
rebels in arms against the United States Govern
ment. Then. Democracy meant " the greatest
good to the greatest number" and that major
ity had a right to govern minority. Now, it
means the opposite--the greatest good to the
least number. and minority must rule majori-
ty Instead of the old Jacksonian Democracy
which swore - by the Etcrnal this Union must
and shall be preserved I've have now Democ
racy which swears BY all the powers of hell
this Union must and shall be destroyed, and upon
its ruins we will build up slave oligaIchy,
