BtooD, Boon, IAGo!-A few weeks
ago the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany furnished duplicates Of a San Diego
dispatch to the San Francisco -4Ha and
chronicle and the Sacramento Record.
The two latter papers were charged s.
each for thi, Dispatch, but the AHa was
informed that it would have to pay SIG
for the same telegram, and when that
paper objected to this enormous charge,
It was politely informed that its Eastern
dispatches would be discontinued. The
Sacramento ~UAioH, the peoples only
friend and the sworn enemy Of all mo-
nopo.ics, as in duty bound, Immediately
came cut in a lengthy editorial and char
acterzcd this proceeding as the grossest
outrage ever perpetrated on the Ameri-
can people, signalized it as high-handcd
attempt TO muzzle the press, and called
loudly for vengeance, suggesting and
proving to the satisfaction OF ali that the
Government should at once take charge
Of all telegraph lines and run them in
the eintere>ts Of the people, that they might
never be called upon to chronicle another
such bold and daring attempt on the part
Of this graping monopoly to overcharge
and force money from friends and adyo-
Gates Of the peoples rights. We've get
ting to be a terrible liar.

THE MoDoC WAR.--Lotcr adVices
from the lava beds confirm the accounts
published last week and it is generally
conceded that Captain Jack won COM
pete victory. Gen. A. c. Gillen, Colonel
Of the First Cavalry. has been ordered to
relieve Gen. Wheaton and take full com
mand Of the troops operating against the
Indians. Reintorcements are on the way
to the front from both California and
Oregon, but will probably not reach the
scene of hostiIities for several days.
Meanwhile ali is quiet at the seat of war.
Still later Intelligence to the Sacramento
Record, Of Jan. 29th, says that Captain
Jack made a sortie from his lava bed
fortress on the 2jth instant, and attacked
Captain Bernard's command at Tule
Lake. After a hard three hours fight,
Captain Jack was repulsed with loss OF
one man killed and three wounded, and
the loss Of fifty horses. Captain Bernard
had not n man injured in any way.

CHEAP ELECTRICAL POWER.
Now that the Postal Telegraph bill is
about to come up for action t will be in
tcresting to know that DIR. LOOMS the
ory Of drawing a supply Of electricity
from an elevated position in the atmos-
phere is engaging the attention Of the
Government authorities. Dr.. LOOMS
has just been interviewed with a view to
estimate the chances of saving few mill
lions to the Government, and yet the
Senate Committee on Commerce has re-
ported adversely to incorporating Il com
pany for the express purpose Of testing
the Loomis theory at their own expense,
though a bill for the purpose unanimous
~ passed the House at the last session,
and not a dollar is asked from the Gov
crnmcnt to perform the test. The proba-
biity Of utilizing the Loomis idea to an
immense pccuniary advantage Is growing
greater in the public mind as the subject
is investigated. 1t involves no less "a
consummation devoutly to be wished 3"
than securing universal and unlimited
supply of light, heat and motive power
from the invisible air above the earth.
That such supply exists, is generally ad-
mitted by scientists, and the means Of
reaching and controlling il is the only
new project that DR.. Loomis proposes,
and for this purpose he profcrs to use the
tops OF high mountains, anchored bal
looms or modern towers Of Babel. As
DR.. Franklin drew iightnings from heay-
en- by the use Of kite, when storm
drew Il part Of the electrical stratum
near to the earth, 50 DR.. Loomi, proposes
TO go a step further, and to carry the
war OF intellect upon this physical pow
er above, and to cut of it, normal base of
supplies. with such an object in view, il
has been suggested that Congress should
at once appropriate $lOo, goo to secure II
thorough test Of the Loomis idea. Sure
ly, it should not refuse legislative sane
ton to a company Of individuals who de-
sire to make the necessary experiments.
SOUTHERN REPRESENTATION.
1t is thought that some changes will
probably be made in the Cabinet after
the 4th Of March and that the South will
be entitled to a representative, in which
case ex-senator Poole will undoubtedly
be the choice Of the President. As Il
constitutional adviser there is no man
more deserving or more capable Of per
forming well the duties Of any Of the
Cabinet chairs. His popularity extend,
among loyal men over the entire South.
