tration of General George l.. Woods, the pres.
ent Governor Of Utah, has been discovered to

was composed of five Radicals and two Demo-
Gratis, indicted May on FIVE different charges
for embezzlement of State monies, amounting.
in the aggregate, to Sl3,663 As. After the

LETTER YRoM ALTuRAs COUNTY.
ATLANTA, |. T., Dec. II, 1877

ATLANTA, |. T., Dec. II, 1871. /.
ED. WoRLD-Dear Sir: Thinking that a
few lines from this section might not DO con.
sdered amiss have concluded to send you
one letter at least That which stands most
in the way of orr county's progress is the
greedy spectators, who wish to use the mines
of Alturas as mills for turning money into their
pockets regardless of the interests of others or
the prosperity of our camp; and the backward
condition of mining affairs in this county is
directly attributable to the baneful influence OF
that class. This utter disregard Of the inter-
ests and future prospects OF our county may
be observed in the manner in which our mines
have been worked. They have been hacked
and gouged to pieces to produce rich ore, which
has been rushed through the mills to exhibit
immediate returns. Nothing seemed to merit
any consideration but the most rapid method
of realizing as much as possible in as short
space of time as possible, so that the owners
might desert the country with their pile"
In this way our valuable mines have been ru
ned and brought into disrepute, while thous-
ands of dollars have been squandered uselessly.
1t is easier for us to detect the fault, and real
ize the unsatisfactory condition and prospects
of our mining interests, than it is to suggest
the remedy; but the remedy will only present
itself when Alturas shall be filled with differ.
ent class of people. who are determined to
own. occupy and develop the mines, and when
our lodes and lodges have slipped from the
grasp of the spectators and drones. Expert.
ments in working talings show that even
smaller profit from more thoroughly and care
ore would pay the owners much
better than the loose manner in which rich ore
has heretofore been worked. 1t would give
more healthy tone to quartz mining interests
here aud save millions of dollars in the end
We have no particular local news in this
region, but If acceptable will send few lines
occasionally to the WORLD. +. |

TAMMASY THROWN IN THE SHADE.-The
Washington Patriot makes the statement that
the carpet-baggers controlling the government
OF the Southern States hare, within three years,
added to the funded debts of those States one
hundred and seventy million dollars, and that
the annual rate Of increase OF such debt is
now not less than thirty millions. The rob-
berries of Tammapy sink into insignifcance
when compared with the wholesale system of
plumber practised by the Radical corpet.bag
ring.

OuR NEW GovERNoR.-Grneral Bennett
the newly appointed Governor of Idaho, has
1T length arrived and assumed charge Of the
Executive department of our Territory, doubt
less much to the relief of our genial and
worthy Secretary. From the notices Of the
new appontee. which we have seen in some
OF our exchanges, we are led 10 believe that
Governor Bennett is decided improvement on
,preylous importations. as being n man not only
of ability but Of character. We hope that
time may confirm US In this belief; aud are
satisfied that If hc steers clear of nil cntane-
ling alliances, and acts the Governor as we'll
as wears the title. he will, besides meeting
with hearty welcome, receive the cordial sup.
port aud endorsement of the people of Idaho.
irrespective of party. Secretary Curtis has
well and faithfully discharged the duties of
Governor during the interregnun, and his
many friends will hear with regret of his re.
linquishmcnt of the Executive functions: but
should the new Governor fill the measure Of
promise our people will have no grounds for
complaint. At any rate We cordially welcome
our new Executive and hope he may become a
permanent. resident of Idaho.

VERY APPROPRIATE. is said that when
Gen. Grant visited Bangor, Maine, last Sum
mer. the residents of that place decorated all
the public buildings. and one sensible fellow
who had the matter in charge, stuck over the
door of the county Jail the motto, Welcome
to the President" While the evident mistake
was rather ludicrous. we are inclined to think
1t was quite appropriate in these days of re-
form and reformatory measures. AS some of
the chief Taminany rogues are enjoying their
oham cum dig inside of prison walls it is about
time the chiefs of the Radical ring of scoun.
drels were keeping them company.

LABORING MEN AND LABOR REFORM
The laboring men who contemplate voting
for what is called the labor-reformcd can
didates, should remember that the move
ments of the leaders of that party are en-
tirely in the interest of the Democratic
party, and that victory of that organiza-
ton under the present auspices will be a
.-;.....ri, r~- F"~a t-~io under which the
price of labor in this country will decline
at least one-third. Laboring men should
examine this matter well before making up
their mind to cast their vote for any candi-
date for an Executive or Legislative posi-
tion. Every wolkingman, the mechanic
and the miner know that the Democratic
party is pledged to free. tradc-in fact that
free-trade is the only live issue in the De-
mocratc creed. Why then do the organs
of that party encourage and puff the labor
reform movementp Surely not that they
are favorable to the welfare of American
labor. because they seek to place it on un-
favorable competition with foreign pauper
labor; but because they hope by bolstering
such a faction to enticc sufficient Republi-
cans into its support to enable them TO
defeat the Republican candidate for Presi-
dent, and put free-trader into the White
House. The British free trade league is at
the bottom Of this intrigue; and it is the
last of the miserable subterfuges invented
abroad to cripple American industry and
enterprise. The workingman who is de-
ceived by it, and who will vote n lobor-rc-
form ticket that is advocated by the organs
of free-trade, has a poor appreciation of
what is necessary for his protection and
welfare.

TIE debate in the Senate on resolution
to inquire whether the sale of arms by our
Government to agents of the French Gov
ernment, during the war between the
French and Prussians, was not in violation
of our neutrality laws, has closed at last
1t was apparent at the start that the whole
object of Senators Sumner and Shurz was
to prevent, if possible, the re-nomina. lion OF
Gen. Grant The recent debates show con.
clusively that the sole object was to excite
the prejudices of the foreign German ele.
ment, and array them in opposition to Gen,
Grant by making it appear that he favored
the French, and that there was not the least
foundation for these charges.

CRUsADn AGAINST TGRANT.--HARPER's
WEEKLY, In an article on the crusade
made by several Senators, and also few
editors, against General Grants admins
tration, is true to the letter, and speaks
the sentiments Of the people everywhere.
They believe the Republican principles,
and will sustain them, regardless of the at
tacks of disappointed men, in and out of
office, who care more for disqualification
than the success of principles and who
seize on popular pretexts to cover up their
selfish propensities and disappointments /:
From this time to the assembling of
Republican Convent the attempt to stain
the character of the President, and to stig-
matize him 10 the country as unit for an
other term, will be incessant and malevo-
lent. But he has been in the Wilderness
Beforehand he came out of it. They mis-
take profoundly aud seriously who sup
pose that the people forget, or that the
mists of calumny that gather about every
Administration have obscured the remem-
brance of the days when Gen. Grant was
the hope of America and of liberty. Com
ing fresh from the camp to the Cabinet,
has he betrayed one of the great principles
of the party which lifted him to power
Differing from many honored leaders, as
they differ among themselves, has he for
gotten the emancipated race, or the honor
of the nation, or the welfare of the people
Silent by nature and by the conditions of
his position, has he to one honest mind
seemed guilty of any of the foul charges
that have been thundered against him
There will certainly be an indignant reac-
ton in the mind and heart of the Ameri-
can people against the relentless effort TO
njure the good name of the President of
the United States--a reaction which will
surely and triumphantly re-ecct him, as a
man who, in the fierce tight' of the in
tenscst party animosty, as in the long
doubt of the war, has shown himself a
modest and faithful servant of his country.
THE people, however, can easily sec
through these tlmsy pretexts and will not
tolerate factious opposition, merely to graft
fy personal spleen, in any member Of the
party, regardless of the service he may
have heretofore rendered to the Republican
party. PRINCIPLES before NJ EN-, is the
motto of every honest Republican in the
country-and he who stands by these prin-
ciples is preferable to the most talented
man in The country who shown that he can
swerve from those principles to crafty pri
yatc malice
