/ had almost forgotten, until a late
hour in the day, that to-day was
the day on which the Republican
State executive committee held
their meeting. A rapid circulation
among the denizens of the Hilzheim
house has given me their proceedings.
At the Hilzheim house met prominent
Republican leaders from all parts of the
State, including the entire executive
committee. From them ] learn that
the convention for the nomination Of
State officers viii be held at Jackson on
the twenty-seventh of August next.
From what / can learn, the star of Gem
eral Anes seems to be in the ascendancy,
as l can swear that several with whom
1 'conversed advocated the cause of
Governor Powers but a few weeks ago
and now come out openly for Ames.
How the committee stand on the
matter 1 can't tell, but believe
their aims are IN one direction.
One thing is certain; The friends of
Governor Powers appear rather down
ln-the-mouta, and are very reticent on
the subject of the action of the COM
mittee.
The county (Hindsl convention meets
on August 4th, and viii endeavor to
give you report of the proceedings.

The Belmont Mines,
From the Reese River RevsiIle, May ,a.h.

From the Reese River Reveille, May a4th.] :.
Quite an excitement is going on
about the big strike In the lower work.
ings OF the Monitor mine. For some
time past the work about the lower
tunnel has been pushed with all posi-
Bile dispatch. Across.cut has been run
back In the hill owe 800 feet, with fiat
tering prospects at the same time a
drift on the lower tunnel level has
been run northerly some $50 feet.
From this level a winze was sunk
about 80 feet north from the tunnel
line, and another sunk about loo feet
still further north. A few days since,
at a depth Of ll3 feet, good ore was
struck In the south Wine and ycster-
day, at a depth of go feet, ore was
struck In the north WINE. We are
confident that this ore body Is very ex-
t~ensive, from the fact Of Its being
struck In both places st the same time,
and the difference in depth shows the
pitch of the ore bodies toward the
south. This development is equally
valuable to the FL Dorado Company,
whose Arizona mine joins the Monitor
on the north.
The Edmund Company Is jubilant
over the large body of ore inst opened,
100 feet north Of the main incline,
above the 240.foot level. This body
shows a face already of four feet Of
pay ore, and its discovery Is important
from the fact that 1t pitches northward
as 1t raises, and Is going up through
UNEMPLOYED ground, consequently the
chances are that 1t may reach near the
surface, $40 feet upwards. This same
chimney on the 400 level Ia al
ready ten feet thick, and 1t Is really
one Of the finest breasts Of ore we have
seen for a long time. The ore bodies
on this level already measure from
north to south $50 feet, aud the pay
stratus are larger on the lower side Of
the level than In the stope above. All
who visit this immense ore deposit
join us in the opinion that the supply
Is inexhaustible.

THE a1aHr SPIRIT.

The farmers in Illinois are waging
warfare against the railroads, and hav-
ing a Supreme Judge 70 elect are, Of
course, very anxious to get one who
is favorable to their views. A club In
Macoupin county lately addressed a
series Of questions to Judge Scholheld
relative to his views upon these points
and were answered by the following
letter which not only shows an honest
man, but points out the distinction be-
tween politics and the judiciary. 1t
would be an infamous thing to elect q
Judge pledged to decide In certain
questions not yet made before the
Court, in q particular manner, and no
lawyer who esteemed his personal or
legal reputation, would be guilty Of
being a candidate when pledged to
such a course. Judges should DO i'm
partial expounders Of the laws. not
tho tools Of monopolies or factions.
The election Of Judge pledged to sus.
tain any particular interest would
strike a death blow to the purity Of
the Court Of which he was \ member,
and destroy the most solid foundation
Of personal safety and the security Of
property. Here IL the substance Of
the letter Of Judge Scho!feld upon this
subject:
exceedingly regre, that my sense Of
selfrespect, In view Of my candidacy
will not allow me to answer chat por'
ton Of your questions which requires
NV construction Of the laws relating to
the different railroads of the State. ]
sincerely hope that you will reconsider
the propriety Of these questions In 9
calm and dispassionate manner, for l
am persuaded that, II you shall do 20,
you will see how manifestly improper
It would be for me to answer them.
Ny opinion In relation to these laws
| can be Of no consequence to the people
unless they shall bs assured that, II
elected, that opinion would be followed
by like decisic"s when the necessary
cases should be presented. The ques
tions then would have been practically
the same had they been put 10 this
form: How will you, II elected, decide
these questions?

plainly marked aud very wide distlnc.

WHAT DOES he MEANp

The declaration Of President Nc
Mahon that he will continue the
work Of liberating tho territory and
restoring ORDER" Is suggestive. Al
a and Lorraine are now occupied
by the Germans. So great was the
disgust Of the French residents Of
those provinces at their annexation to
Germany that they emigrated so rap
Idly as to threaten . total d~epopula-
ton Of those districts, and the German
Government found 1t necessary to Is
sue an order for Its suppression.
Frenchmen will never rest happily
until that territory Is receded to
France. 1t will have to be done forci-
bly,. II Mcmahon means fight against
the Prussians, no will hold the heart
Of Franco. II he tries to form q Re-
gency before a successful war, We be-
lievs he will fall. Gambetta would
do better, for he would have a Repub-
lie to back him. and even the oppo-
Rents of republicanism among her
people dare not refuse to aid France
against Germany. To do so would de-
stroy their last chance Of success
among the people. Republicans on
the other hand would BE- cool support
ers ofany project which, II successful,
would give up France to Imperialism
II the new President does not mean
war, it Is difficult to understand his
language. War with Germany would
be popular in France, miles, 1t in-
volved a restoration Of the Empire.
In that case, we doubt If the people
would sustain the new government.

IRON TIC ftcCOfu VI 1asy sol
We were Yesterday shown some ore
from the newly discovered silver lodges
on Cherry creek. 1t was literally COW
cred with what the miners call "horn
silver" The gentleman who exhio-
tied 1t was never himself on the ground.
but be said the party who presented
the specimen to him had obtained It
from the ledge. and that he asserts
that the ledge Is extensive and we'll
defined. The Cherry creek excitement
Ia not abating a whit.
Yesterday morning, between 9 and
10 o'clock, we had a snowfall In
Phoebe. For a few moments the flakes
descended as fast as at any time last
Winter, and they came down In broad,
leafy drops, like a shower Of feathers.
How Is this for the latter part Of May
on tue 3Sth parallel? But those abroad
will be still more surprised when they
are Informed that oranges mature a
hundred miles directly east OF US.
A miner came In last night from
Star District, eighty or ninety miles a
little east Of north from Phoebe. He
saws the lodges there r undoubtedly
rich, but from lack of capital, but two
are being developed. Business Is not
as brisk In Shenandoah, the trading
point Of those mines, as 1t has been.
But the claim-holders are hopeful.
In the window Of S. Smith & Co.,
| Main street, we notice on exhibition q
fine specimen Of the rich ore struck In
the eighth level Of the Raymond q
| Ely mine. The silver and copper
crystalizatlons are heavy and very
brilliant. There Is said to be an album
dance Of that kind of ore in the mine.
To-day we resume the publication Of
a regular weekly mining review. We
hope mining men will take notice, and
be prepared to furnish us data. Infor-
nation will be received at the edito-
rial room until 2 o'clock In the after
noon.
Some capitalists. we understand,
have promised to visit and examine
the lodges in Long Valley District,
and Invest, If they are as promising as
reported.

SCARED

The Board Of Supervisors In San
Francisco are getting In earnest, and
have taken the Chinese Taurus BY the
horns. They passed to print several
important ordinances night before last
among which was one providing that
the cues Of all Chinese prisoners shall
be cut of, and another for the pay
meut Of licenses by laundrymen. A
resolution was also introduced prohib-
iting the removal Of dead Celestials
from the country. The frat Of these
resolutions has the right ring. 1t will
probably produce the curious result
that every accused Chinaman will
take his cue and excuse himself by
paying his fine. With this penalty
attached there will be few recusant
and incurable criminals among the
cus-admiring Celestials. Either this
or some Of the other orders has already
frightened the Chinese bosom, for our
dispatches say that all tho leading
Chinese companies have united In a
telegram to Hongkong, warning their
countrymsn against the perils of fur.
Their emigration. The dispatch doesn't
state whether the said perils consist in
the bob-sailing. licensing, or corpse
expectation prohibition, but we incline
to the belief that the former and the
latter are the great bugbesrs. Be the
reason what lt may, the result Is graf
flying, and the action Of the Board
may have the effect Of checking, II not
stopping altogether the, enormous in
lux Of Chinese coolies.

Shooting ARRAY.

From the Reese River Reveille. May 22.l
Last night a shooting ARRAY occurred
In the Cosmopolitan Saloon about IL
o'clock, between q couple Of sports
named James Wilson and Joseph
Noon. In which the former was shot
through the right hand and also
through the right groin, neither
wounds however being dangerous.
The parties had a difficulty yesterday
afternoon and were both arrested for
fighting; Wilson was fined by Judge
Logan thirty dollars, but Noon was
discharged, 1t appearing from the evil
dience that he acted only In self-de-
tense when assaulted. During the nf.
ternoon and evening they met several
times aud we are Informed that Will
son-who was considerably In liquor
was very abusive towards Noon, ap-
plying to him the most opprobrious
epithets, etc. About u o'clock Will
son was drinking at the bar of the Cos
mopolitan, when Noon came IN, aud
as his antagonist turned from the bar,
commenced firing at him with n six

however taking effect, the wounds In
the hand and groin being evidently tho
result Of a single shot. When fired
upon, Wilson drew a tive-shooter and.
~retreatins behind the bar fired two
shots, without however hitting his an
tagonist. Both combatants then threw
their pistols at each other and each
selling a billiard cue. were resumlng
the fight with those weapons. when
they were separated by City Marshal
Reynolds, who arrested Noon and
took him to tho County Jail, where he
remains at present. Wilson's wounds
we're dressed by DR.. Wixom. There
are bullet holes around the saloon In
every direction, and as there were for
ty or fifty persons In the room at the
time of the shooting, 1t appears almost
a miracle that no outsider was shot, as
Is usually the result when broncho
fighters choose to indulge In a sociable
shooting match.

The Bangor (Ms.l Commercial, on

cd that Senator Hamlin had not re-
turned bis back pay to the Treasury,
Notwithstanding all statements to the
contrary, WAKES earnest and very per-

language:
On one thing the people are reso-

no man to hold that salary grab and
be reelected to Office. II Mr.. Hamlin
will cling to that ill-gotten gain, let
him do so; but don't let him. BY

into the idea that he has restored the
money to the treasury while he holds
1t In his pockets.

We clip the following from the Eu-
reka Sentinel Of the 18th Instant:
A gentleman in from Secret Canyon
informs us that the mining prospects
Of that section never looked half SO
we'll as now. The Geddes & Bertrand
has commenced shipping ore to the
Lemon mill. Three large OK teams
arrived yesterday, all loaded to the
guards. The ore, 1t Is thought, will
work high up into the hundreds. An
important strike Is also announced In
the Hogdon mine. This vas not un-
expected, as there was every indica-
ton of an immense deposit being fully
developed at any time. The ore In
the Hodgdon Is believed to be equally
as valuable rs that In the celebrated
Geddes s. Bertrand, the two properties
being only q short distance apart, and
without doubt on the same mineral
belt. Better times may be looked for
In that portion of the district than
have been experienced there since the
first discoveries were made.

WE don't suppose 1t Is anything un-

Gentle Of the plain present, 1t seems
rather rough on tho civilization Of the

the following:

NOUS widow Of one Winchester, whose
first wife was Mrs. Winchester's own
