THE POLICE COMMISSIONERS AND THE
WoNAN's CLUB REFoRN.-The Board OF Police
Commissioners at their meeting Yesterday dis
missed private John w. Hanes for cond lct un-
becoming an Officer. W. III. West and Samuel
ii. Collins were appointed privates. The appli-
cation OF William ii. COnroy for liquor license,
which was rejected at a former meeting. was
reconsidered and again rejected. A commune
cation WAS read from Sara J. Spencer, president
of the Noman's Club, in which She saws
"NO one knows better than yourselves the
nature, extent and fearful responsibility Of the
work undertaken 10y the wOmen's club, and
no body of men in the country can render us so
effectual service i'm accomplishing the ends we
have In view as your board and the men under
your command. For your evident approval,
sympathy and cooperation thus far. we thank
you sincerely AS officers Of the law YOU hav
frequently been compelled TO do that whic
was obviously cruel and unjust. We al
know that the ultimate hope Of justice an
fairness in dealing with the inmates
houses OF ill-fame must rest with legislation;
but what ought % be done I'm the INN sdiats
future, before legislative action is possible must
trouble you, while il gives us great anxiety. We
are adapting our own labOrs % the present con-
dition OF things. We find no difficulty what
ever in persuading women 20 leave that mode OF
life, in larger numbers than we are able TO pro-
vide for item. Even those who talk the most
rGdely TO men upon the subject. come TO Us
promptly upon the first real assurance we
can give them Of suitable employment, sub
stantial support, and kind, sisterly treatment.
Butwe are gTieved 10 learn that the large num-
Der OF strangers visiting the city has revived
the business, filled the empty Golfers OF the keep
ers Of these houses, and encouraged them 20
hope for another season Of prosperity, having
no fear now OF the execution OF the railing
order. We under stand that il Is within your
province 20 close these houses without turning
the women upon the streets, by simply station
ing guards at their doors 90 prevent the admis-
sion Of patrons. Believing that You sincerely
desire 20 cooperate with Us i'm saving these wO-
men, and trusting that you viii not be compelled
to adopt more rigorous measures, We earnestly
recommend the above plan during the presence
of the strangers in our city. In the meantime
we are making rapid progress towards providing
for the permanent employment, instruction,
and maintenance of these women, and respect
fully urge you TO mention this to them al every
ctnyenient oppor uaity."
The subject OF raiding houses of fll-fame was
postponed until the next meeting of he bosrd
which will take place after its return from Ire
ST. Louis police convention.

LAKE BIGLER. The Sacramento
Reporter of Thursday copies our arti-
Gle in reference TO the efforts of the
Sacramento Union and its apes TO
change the name of Lake Bigler, and
says:
..Bigler" was the name by wEichthe
lake i'll question was first now to
white men. Ii was so named by a
meeting of pioneers in honor OF eX-
Governor BiGlcr. and was known as
Lake Big!er'' only until after the
commencement of the late unpleas-
antnc~S. Then, the Union of this
city, i'll order to manifest It's hatred OF
Democrats, and OF Governor Rigler i'll
particular. Democratic leader, insist
ed that the name should be changed
to ..TAhoe.'' that of a vagabond,
dcring and thieving Indian The
..Ioil" press took up the cry OF Ia
hoe only TO spite a democrat, II TOT
wears u~nsuccessfully endeavored to
iastcn that name upon the lake. But
..Bigler'' it stands upon the maps and
in the Statutes, and will continue to
stand, in spite of the malicious and
small-souled fellows who took advan-
age Of political prejudices and pas
sions to wreaS their petty spite upon
a good man they hated because OF his
devotion to principle.

THE EFFECT.-Ne ~ heard any
thing wrong of Will. Campbell until
he Topped over to the Republicans to
spite the Democrats for not giving INN
a nomination in Storey county. HIS
erotism was his besetting sin prior TO
that time. But Eadicalism affected
VIII as it does most of its devotees:
He.sousllta and obtained appointments,
became d~efaulter. and was then nonl-
mated for Attorney General blythe Re
publican party. On Monday last the
Board Of City Trustees OF Hamilton
PASSED a resolution ~instructing the
CITY Attorney to accept THE sum OF
500 in full payment and discharge OF
the official bond of VIII Campbell"
The thing leaked out when Campbell
was running for office, but he pleaded
a broken leg and asked a suspension
Of public opinion. As the City Attor-
new of Hamilton is authorized to re-
ceipt for the $500 ''iu full release Of the
sureties," we suppose they have TO
settle the d~efalcation.

The following proceedings were had
in the United States Senate last Thurs
day:
The regular order, the KukluX bill,

Thurman took the floor and made a
long argument against the centraliz-
ing tendencies of the bill.
At the conclusion of Thurman'S
speech, Sumner spoke briefly III favor

Thurman asked Sumner If he IN
tended to vote for the bill.
Sumner replied that he did.
Thurman said the President of the
United States had only recently been

statement of a large number OF white
and colored victims of recent out

things constituted civil war. Were
Senators content to cavil on fine con
stitutional points while these walls Of
woe come upon every breeze?
Blair said he did not want b Sena-
tor (Nye) to shed all his tears owe
North Carolina, but look at home
He then asked for the reading OF the
proceedings of the Vigilance Commit
tee of Virginia City. Nevada, and the
various outrages of recent occurrence
in that State.
Stewart remarked that the Nigilan'
les of the Pacific coast. unlike the ku
klux. had never taken life for polltl-
cal reasons.
