FAMINE IN PERSIA.-The Herald'>
London special says particulars OF the
famine i'll Persia mention that 30 per
cent OF the population has periShed.
Thousands dragged themselves across
the frontier. The famine is the result
of terrible drouth. Many slew and
devoured tilcir children. Men have
been caught Gi>interring bodies for
food. All domestic animals, which
were verv numerous, have been killed
and eaten. The drouth is probably
the most terrible one on record.

POLITICIANS INTERMEDLING~ WITH
THE VIRGINIA MINERS UNION.

We are iinformed by a letter from
Virginia that ~. p. Jones, candi-
date for US Senate to succeed Nye,
has sent Senator Phelan, of Storey,
to figure among the miners in Amador
in behalf of Booth and the Republi-
can ticket of California. Phelan. be
it understood, is the President of
the Virginia Miners Union. Jones
appreciates the influence that Cali
fornia exerts in the politics of this
State and hence his interest in the
matter. Miners of Storey threaten
to reprimand Phelan. and perhaps
expel him, if he seeks to use his
position as their executive officer IN
the interest of any political orGanl-
zation. According to a telegram to
the press the honorable Senator
from Storey addressed the Miners
League of Amador last Friday night
with closed DOORS
There is a great deal of Indignation
expressed among the miners at Nir-
ginia City at this unwarranted inter-
ference by an officer of their associa
ton with California politics. The
Miners Union is not a political or
ganizatiOn. and its members decidedly
object to the attempt to use it to
influence the political action of the
miners of any other region. Friend
Phelan better go a little slow, OF he
NAV arouse in his organization some
of hat spirit which stopped over
among the Labor Societies OF San
Francisco last week, carrying with It
several expelled members, who I'M
dertook for a consideration to hard
those organizations over to the
Radical party.
At the most there is very little in
the Radical party to enlist the sym
pathy of Miners or Labor Unions.
That party is under the control of
the great interpretations whose gl-
gantic railroad and banking powers
threaten to speedily absorb all the
powers OF the government, and
rights and interests of the people
and above all, of the laborer. 1t is
the party of a higl tariff and Chi
nese wages-the two most deadly
foes of the laborer. The succes of
the Republican ticket nullities the
very object for which the Miners
Union was formed. To aid in that
cce is virtually to commit
suicide. The Miners Union of
Storey county was organized for no
such purpose, and any attempt to
divert the society to serve the politi-
cal interests of any politician de-
serves the ~severest apprehension. 1t
is virtually stealing the miners
thunder to hurl the bolts against
themselves. If the members once
tolerate the admission OF that spirit
in their circle, they admit an enemy
which can but speedily disorganize
the society, and utterly destroy its
usefulness, if not its existence. The
miners organized a protective union
not a Radical clubnor a missionary
society.
