Yesterday morning. Ak Kew, the China
man recently convicted of murder in the
frs. degree, was brought before Judge Saw

sentence. Mr.. Marsal, in the absence Of
Mr.. Charles Carvalho, acted as interpreter,

LATEST FROM THE FIRE.

The following, which is the latest intel
! lisence from the Yellow Jacket fire, we copy
from last evenings Gold Hill News Extra :
At ii A. N. to-day we visited each one OF
the shafts, in order to give our readers the
very latest ideas in this exciting matter.
From the Yellow Jacket shaft considerable
light smoke and the peculiar pungent, pitchy
smelling gas was coming up, mingled with
little or no steam, showing that the steam
being forced down from the boilers was pass
ing through the levels of the mine below,
where it was desired to be sent. From the
kentuck shaft, clouds Of apparently pure
steam was coming out, owing to the difficulty
of closing it completely. Workmen, how
ever, were buisily engaged trying 10 stop up
all the chinks snd holes with mud and other
materials. From the Crown Point shaft some
little steam, smoke and gas. pretty equally
mingled was coming out. 1t is almost i'm
possible TO close all the surface apertures
perfectly, but although the fire is evidently
not extinguished, it cannot fail TO be smoth-
cred and eventually quenched.
On consultation between Chief Gibson of
the Fire Department and the Superintend-
ents of the three mines afacted, it was con-
Guided not to open either Of the shafts until
mex: Monday morning, and not even then if
there is still thought to be any FIRE below.
They will risk no chances Oh it until that
time, now that they have 1t within their
control.

WHAT WILL BECOME OF THEM.-In a

| WHAT WILL BECOME OF IHEM?-In a
recent issue of the Bee the question is asked
what will become of the Is, 900 or so OF
workmen who are employed by the two
great Pacific Railroads on the completion OF
the roads: The Bulletin comes to the res
cue and solves the problem which SO racks
the brain Of the philosopher of the Bee.
Some of them will be retained on the roads
for a long time to repair defects caused by
rapid construction some vii, find work at
the numerous stations; some will go into the
! mining districts few may settle on land
bought from the companies: but thousands
will be put at once TO work on some other
railroads. The Union Pacific Company will
begin a branch to Salt Lake City, and per-
. hsps another to Puget Sound. The Central
Pacific Company cOntemplates a branch
through Idaho 20 Oregon, but will first COM
plete the Western Pacific, from Sacramento
TO Oakland, and will want multitude of
hands in their water front improvements at
Oakland. il, indeed, they do not extend the
Marysville road northward. There will be
work enough for all TIE railroad hands who
come to California. Perhaps the Southern
Pacific will demand many Of them. And the
proposed railroad from Elko to White Pine
and Calsille on the Colorado river will
require thousands. They will all find en-
ploymens. rest assured--Sac. Record. !
Oar contemporaries, the Bulletin and
Record, are both right, so far AS they /
60 but neither of them tells the whole /
story or half of IT, But then who but /
prophet or the son Of a prophe; coud?
Thousands of these hardy settlers viii /
have TO do with 1.-The future of Nevada
that grand problem out Of which one
sees the desert redeemed by system of
the better valleys filed with /
farmers and fruit growers, and all the !
vast interests of the field and garden
ID ade, as they are IN our sister State,
a greater, less periious and more certain
OF wealth than the mines them
and extensive as they are.
These and their families and friends and .
followers, will teach the present g-uer-
alton of the truth of the ssgaCious
Western mans constant and infall.ble .
proverb, That money invested in lands
is the surest and best disposition that a
young man can make of his means. To |
open up all needed facilities for the de-
mand that is sure TO be made for the
great tracts of School lands belonging
to the State, should be the irrepressible
aim of those whose province il is 10 get
them ready for the market.

World saws that the great State of Louisi

DOLLS a total OF only 5000 votes, or abou

And vet, there ia nothing absolutely
malicious with the old man. He is like
gar.ulous old spinster, will talk, but
wouldn't hurt hair in a child's head.
The blame lies with such brazen faIsi-

simless and reckless is given to putting

sinuation that Nevada is made up of

A nigger named Bill Saunders has
been appointed special detective and
confidential agent of the Washington
Postoflice-salary, 81 200 per year
the most important public trust con.
ferred upon nigger under the new
regime. Well, il is, perhaps, a logical
result Of "the acceptance OF the situa,
tion" by tho temporarily eowed, spir-
itless, hopeless white sovereigns Cd oI
this unfortunate country. This nigger
one of the race Of human beings who
lack moral perceptions, who have not
the slightest conception Of the word
honesty, who simply refrain from
stealing, when they do thus refrain
through fear &C the law, and not thro
the dictates of conscience, reason and
honor, has been appointed by an arm
of tho government as spy and inform,
er over white men. Every white
clerk in Washington Postoflico is al
the mercy Of this ignorant, inferior
narrow-mindcd, brainless, conscience
less African, whose contracted intel
lect nd brutal prejudices will naturally
at this moment, when tho deep nut.
terings of war Of races arc heard
not only all over the South, but even
in the North, make him the covert, II
not tho open enemy, Of every member
of the superior race with which ae Il
brought officially in contact. Such
outrageous, premeditatod insults as
these should make the more decent
members Of the dominant party blush
with shame. We solcmnly warn the
men in power, who are crowding this
inferior negro race upon, and, indeed,
over and above tho white race, who
founded this government, and have
made tho country what il was up to
1860, that they arc preparing for
themselves day of wrath which,
when IL comes, will be fearful and ter
rible. A war Of races will certainly
be the price of the niggor policy Of
tho Mongrel party. There are mil.
lions Of white men to-day all over the
country, in wbose bosoms there is ra.
ging pent up volcano. If this nigger
policy is not abandoned, it will break
out, and when il docs, the loudcst
cry will not be "down with the negro"
but "down with the fools and fanatics
who have debauchcd him. and not
only brought ruin upon the section
which alone has hitherto truly pro.
tectcd and cared for him, but also
shackied the entire nation with a back
breaking debt and calling taxation.

not dead; il simply sleeps. When il
awakes, nothing can save you from
the terrible consequences Of your foul
