NEVADA STATE ITEMS.

From the Eureka Sentinel, Aug AL
TuE SUPPOSED MuRDER.-In order
that the officers might not have their
plans frustrated by the publication OF
the mysterious disappearance OF man
named c. b. Green, no notice has been
previously made of the circumstances.
Sheriff Sullivan had vigilant measures
adopted as soon as he was put in posses
sion of the facts in the case, and desired
that nothing be said publicly until he |
had consummated his plans. The mis-
| sing man Green when last seen was IN
/ charge OF band OF twenty-five horses
belonging to him, about four miles north
east from Eureka, on grazing ranch.
He was a man of sober, steady habits,
and his sudden disappearance on Satur-
day last excited suspicion OF foul play
with his friends, who laid the matter De-
fore the officers. 1t was thought that he
might have been got out OF the way by
parties who desired to run of his stock
and ultimately become possessed OF
them. This suspicion was borne out
too, by the circumstance that TWO OF the
animals had been sold at figure much
less than their value, a short time after
their owner was missed, by suspicious
character, whom the officers are now IN
pursuit Of, with fair chance OF captur-
ing. But a search of two days by party
of white men and Indians employed by
: the Sheriff failed to discover any traces
/ of the body Mr.. Green formerly resid-
ed at Walla Walla, Washington Territory.
REWARD. Sheriff Sullivan offers re-
ward of two hundred dollars for the dis
5 covery of the body of the missing man
); Green, or liberal portion of that amount
d for any information that will lead to his
5 whereabouts. if he is living. Green, II
d alive. is an American, about forty years
e old, light complexion, with small chir
whiskers and full face. He was las
, seen on the road from Eureka to hi
;, ranch a week ago yesterday, when b.
Il appeared to be in his usual condition o
l. health and spirits.
Town GovERNMENT.-In month o

W their stoves for Winter use. Would

La empowered to enforce some kind Of regr
~ ~ lations relative to stove-pipes! We thin

THE OUTLOOK IN CALIFORNIA.

1t is not too much to say that no party
in California can afford to lose the vote
of San Francisco That city has just
three-twentieths Of the Assembly, and
will hold the balance OF power wher-
ever tie dominant party has not an
overwhelming majority. The Alta, which
is looked upon as pretty good authority,
and is not supposed to have any such
bias as would give to any OF its state
ments a Democratic coloring, has given
an opinion on the probable result of the
approaching election, in which the fol-
lowing sentences occur:
1t looks Just now as if the Republicans
of San Francisco were to be slaughtered
on election day without mercy. The
PEOPLES Union has fair prospect of
casting from three to five thousand
votes, and when that number is taken
away from the Administration party, the
Democrats will have no difficulty in car
rying the day, if they can get up sucl
unanimity as they usually show when
great prize is within reach, Inc
present situation suggests to US the fable
of the two cats quarreling about an oys
ter. They are represented in Fay AM
Carr, and the Democracy is the monke!
about to clean out the inside of the bi
valve, and give shell to each of tn
disputants The cohesive power of pull
lie plumber seems to be the exclusiv
privilege of the unterrifed and nj
washed. Republicanism has not bee
able to reach to that sublime virtue whic
preserves the unity of the organizatio
amidst the division of the spoils.

PERHAPS the most significant proof Of
the real strength of the Farmers Move
ment" in the West is afforded by the
fact that the Catholic farmers of that
section, being, by their faith, debarred
from joining any secret society, are or
ganizing oranges of their own to cooper
ate actively with the original organiza-
tons This, more than anything else,
decides the universally of the movement
among the agricultural classes of the
West. 1t needed but this apparently
separate, but, in reality, cooperative,
action of the Catholic farmers, to reveal
the fact that all the Western farmers are
unite for their stand against political
corruption. The movement has become
formidable. Who can tell how soon it
may be irresistible.

WHOSE OK Is GoRED'

The Alta California says the state Of
Missouri is trying the game OF repudia-
ton. and states the case in the following
terse style: /
Twenty years ago. for value received, /
she maid to the Federal Treasury, IN trust
for certain Indian tribes, $4,000 IN State
banlG which are now about to fall due.
They were issued when gold was the only
LEGAL tender, and they promised, by I'M
nlication, if not by explicit language, that
The debt should be paid in gold. Now
the State offers payment in greenbacks'
and the Federal Treasury very properly
refuses. The moral is that people must
he careful how they buy Missouri bonds.
Snch conduct as that of Missouri tends
10 ipiure the credit OF all the States IN the
European market.
Now, in all candor, we submit that
United States currency is either legal
tender in payment of all debts, whether
contracted before or after the passage
of the Legal Tender Act, or else cur
rencv is not a legal tender. 1t
cannot be both legal and ille-
cal at the same time. The Supreme
Court of the United States has affirmed
the validity of the Legal Tender Act
and the Federal Government pays Its
employees in currency, whether or not
the original contract called for gold pay
ments. But when some Of its own paper
is offered in payment Of debt incurred
before the Legal Tender Act was created
the Federal Government says no. l.
John Doe, prior to the passage o
the Legal Tender Act, had agreed to pa!
20 Richard Roe a sum Of MONEY, it would
have been understood to mean COIN, bu
payment falling due after the passa sc 0
the Act, the tender of currency in pay
ment would have been legal. The sam
principal applies in the case which Ia
arisen between the State of Missouri an
the Federal Government, and the fact IS
that the United States Government i
trying the game Of Reputation.

during recent civil service examination

asked to state the distance of the planet
Saturn from the earth. One candidate
answered that he was unable to state the

was sufficiently near to interfere with the
performance of his duties as clerk, mol
to beget in him a desire to NEEDLE with

qualified expression of confidence in his
integrity and honor after his completely
in the most stupendous iufamy of the
century, as deplorable moral obliquity
on the part of the Chief Magistrate of a
great nation, and an insult to the moral
sense of the age. The causeless removal
of the EmpasSador to Japan and the ap-
pointment of political castaway in his
own State, covered with the scandals of
the Credit Moblier, was a discount on
fidelity and a heavy premium on villany
in office. The approval by the President
of the increase-of-salary bill received a
