THE PIOCHE DAILY RECORD.

As viii be seen in another place the
RECORD and the Review have been unit
ed and will hereafter be published under
the above name. In the future as well
as heretofore, it will be our duty, and a
pleasurable one to present the public of
Phoebe with daily Journal worthy of
their patronage and support. We shall,
to the best our ability and means, aivc-
cate the interests of Phoebe and the
county of Lincoln. We shall endeavor
by faithful description to demonstrate
the great value of the mineral resources
Of this region. The single source of the
prosperity of this community will at all
times receive that attention which i'm
portance so justly merits. By carefully
compiled statements of the progress and
development OF tue various mining en-
terprises of this district, we hope 70
become the means of demonstrating to the
outside world the indubitable value of the
storehouse of mineral wealth which is
in and around Phoebe. In our columns
will be found the latest and fullest tele-
graphic intelligence from all parts of the
world that our means will procure. We
also shall present to our fellow-citizens
daily chronicle of the events of the
day, as found in the pages of our cotem-
poraries, accompanied by comments die
tated by spirit of impartial fareness to
all parties and to all men. While we
shall fearlessly expose abuses and at
tempt TO show how they should be cor
rected, We shall at all times take pleasure
in bringing under the notice of the public
those who deserve the appreciation of
their fellow-citizens. In these and all
other respects We shall use our best
endeavors to cause the RECORD to keep
step with the advancing spirit of the
tim s, and present our readers with a
daily journal worthy of the young, pros.
porous and rapidly growing city in which
it is published.

MINERAL LAND DEcIsIoN.-An impor-
tant decision has recently been rendered
by the Commissioner of the General
Land Office with regard to the title of
minerald lands on those patented to the
Central Pacific Railroad Company. Peo-
pie had in many instances already loca-
ted mining ground on some of these
sections, and other parties who had pur-
chased the land from the railroad COM
pany found them in poss assion. This
naturally gave rise to dispute, as to pri-
ority of title, which the Commissioner
decides in manner to show that pos
sessory mining claim which existed at
the time the Government granted the
land to the railroad Company, can be
patented, and the patent will hold good
over any given to the company, or con-
veyances made by them to private par
ties. The decision, which We append,
will serve to put stop to further liti-
CATION:
1nasmuch as all known mineral
lands, excepting coal aud iron, are ex-
pressly excluded from the railroad grant,
and from all patents issued Hereunder,
any party having bona fie subsisting
mining GAINS upon tract of land, at
the date of the erroneous patenting
thereof to the railroad company, is in
no way declared from proceeding to OBJ
tam Government patent for such min
Ing claim, IN accordance with the mining
statutes of Congress, it being only under
such statutes that valid title to known
mineral land can be acquired; but when
lands have been patent to the compa-
ny and mining application is fled
therefor, either the company or its
grantee may come forward, provided
they appear within the time fixed by the
mining act for lverse claimants to DIS
prove the mineral character of the land.

POLITICAL PUNSTERS.

During the past campaign the Repub-
hcans hopeless Of beating Kendall by
direct issue on the usefulness to this
State of his career in Congress, endeav.
ored to reduce his popularity ly bad
jokes and pointless puns on the legiSls-
ton he proposed for the benefit of this
State. But the role of a proiessiona
jester had been worn ont by Jocular
Jeems, and these efforts ut ridicule,
though sometimes they provoked a
laugh, only served to deepen the impress
sion that Kendall had been a faithful
public servant, who had earnestly en-
deavored to perform his duty and that
the people could not be better served.
+ This feeling was generally showed by a
majority of both parties. and conclusive
ly shows that the honest and conscien-
tious performance of official duty can
not be effaced from the minds of the
people by the stale wit of few political
punsters. We congratulate the State on
securing the continued services of al
honest, able and pains taking Congress
man who will represent the State o
Nevada irrespective of party, and alsc
Mr.. + endall ON the marked recognition
of the value of his efforts and relianc,
on his unacceptable integrity, which HI
has received from the people of Nevad'
at large, and not alone from one politi
cal party.

MISUNDERSTANDING the months of
July, August and September, ninety
nine ships left Liverpool for the United
States, carrying 36, 49l steerage passen-
gers and nearly 5000 in the cabins.
Seventeen ships left for Canada, carving
o,6Oi emgrants; and one left for Veto
ria, and two for South America. The
aggregate number of passengers were
%, 3S5-of whom the greater portion
LlS,279l were English, and only 5, lOI
Irish. The most notable feature of the
quarters return is the sudden access of
Swedes, Lanes and Germans to the en-.
lgration from Liverpool-no less than
10, S33 of the whole number having been
drawn from the Scandinavian and Ger
man countries. The liverpool returns
show that during the whole quarter the
departures of ships for the United
States have averaged more than one per
day; while the emigrants have fiocked
Westward at the rate of $4,000 ner
month, or IA, 900 per year.

CHOOSING SENATOR'S.

The San Francisco Bulletin, in very
timely and well considered article upon
the election of United States Senators.
says:
1t is characteristic OF the State of Mas
sachusetts, that the leading Republican
papers are urging the importance of
making the best possible nominations to
the Legislature, with the view to the
choice of Senator, and the Boston Jour
nal reflects the opinion of the party when
1t says: "No nomination can be called a
good one which is hampered with pledges
of any kind. The task imposed upon the
Republicans of Massachusetts by this
Senatorial exigency will be to look over
the State and to confer together, with the
simple object of putting the right man in
Henry Wilson's seat"
We do these things differently here in
California. The fright man - selects
himself, and then proceeds to make it
impossible for the people or the Legisla-
ture to select anybody else. When he
has brought his powerful mind to the
conclusion that he is indeed the fright
man, it would not do, of course, to let
the wrong man slip in by neglect.
The same remarks that the Bulletin
makes concerning California, applies
with equal force to Nevada. Here man
is chosen Senator not because he is emil
nently qualified for the position, or on
account Of his pure and exalted character
or great services, but because he is i'm
mensely rich or can command huge sums;
and thus gold, and not worth or brains,
becomes the test of fitness for office. At
the present time prominent candidate
for the U. 5. Senate has selected himself
for the position. He does not pretend
to have any greater qualification for the
office than that he has had the means of
paying for it. The primaries, conven-
tons and election have all been manipu-
lated with this view, and as the Bulletin
says, to make it impossible for the people
to elect anyone else. Thus popular rep
resentation is made complete farce, and
like pyramid set on its apex, the Legis-
lature. instead of representing the people,
represents the Senatorial candidate who
is selected and elected by himself. The
abuses and corruption engendered by
this system are becoming so glaring that,
from their frequent and confessed occur
ence, there is some hope for change
for the better. Very shame will cause
the people to take some measures to pro-
tect themselves from being made the
puppets of man whose only recommen-
lation is the possession Of a purse of un-
yaugeable capacity. Money may make
he mare to go, but this thing of making
legislatures mere registering machines Of
be will Of man of immense wealth, is
citing to be little too infamous to be
'uch longer endured

A SUPERNATURAL PHOTOGRAPH.

The spiritualists have secured addi-
tional evidence in support of the phan-
tastes. In Portsmouth. Ohio, the whole
town is agog concerning the negative
photograph of dead woman, named
Motto Sullivan, which is reported to be
indelibly affixed in the glass of the win
dow of the house in which she lived
1t appears that she died not long since,
but while living, and shortly before death
said that she would come back and look
out of the window. After the death and
burial the negative was found imprint
ed on the glass, and can't neither be
washed or rubbed off, but like the Star
Spangled Banner it is "still there 1t
forms the sensation of the town of Ports
mouth, and the house is constantly
surrounded with crowds of eazers. The
correspondent Of the Cincinnati Com
mercial says:
Even the elections give way to this
great sensation. Persons visiting the
place prepared to dscredit it anyhow,
are the most puzzled of all. Various are
the reasons given. Superstition leads all.
The vast majority say that il is but the
fulfllment OF dying woman S prophecy.
One says the evil spirit placed it there;
the moralist claim that the Almighty put
it there to warn others of her mode of
life, and prepare them for reformation.
Another says that her picture was mega
lived in the grease and dirt in the sur
face Of the glass by atmospheric press
ure; some say that one of the freaks of
electricity caused it. think that some
strong reaction going on IN the rays of
light made a negative of the woman at a
single sitting, and the woman may have
discovered it before she died. l may
say it from the east.

A fatal shooting affray took place at
Alta, Utah, on the night of the 4th inst,
A man named Bill Haws, former foreman
of one shift in the Flagstaff, broke in the
door of Fritz Adolphy's shooting gallery,
between the hours OF and 2 O'Clock on
Sunday morning. The night Waterman,
Miller, persuaded him to leave, thouph
with some trouble. Last night Haws
and Miller met in front of Adolphy's
saloon. Haws threatened to shoot. and
finally did so, while Miller was trying to
arrest him, the ball passing through Mil.
ier's wrist. -Four shots were then fired
IN quick succession, which proved fatal
70 Haws, one ball passing through his
heart. Others say there was an old
grudge between them, and they met and
commenced shooting; but it is generally
thought that Miller is justified. Haws
had been drinking, but was not drunk.
Miller is under arrest Deseret News,

The CoLoRED MEN.-The telegrams
from Washington indicate that power
full effort is being made, by the colored
people, for the substantial recognition
of their services to the R. publican party.
The form which they ask this to assume
is the selection of a Cabinet Minister
from their ranks. We cannot see any,
thing unreasonable in this proposition
If the colored people are good enough to
rule and represent in Congress large
portion of the south, they shou'd be
equally well adapted to form a portion
of the Presidents cabinet, and assist
in the practical government OF the coun-
try at large. What is sauce for the goose
should certainly be applicable to the
gander. As negro rule in the south is
alleged to be so successful, thu re should
certainly be no objection for them to
exercise their skill on the broader area of
national affairs. There can be no ques-
ton that this is the legal and logical con-
clusion of the position which the Repub-
lican party has taken during and before
the past campaign, and we have some
curiosity to see whether Grant, aud the
rest Of them will manfully stand up to it.
