ministration of public affairs, that i. has
become the crying evil Of the times.
Throughout the country there is but one
feeling, that the terrible and shameful
abuses that are known TO exist shonld
and must be exposed and those who are
implicated punished. From whom does
this cry of ''lieentious press" come?
1t comes from men stained with
the infarlies of the Credit Mobilier. of
the Washington swindles. of the salary
grab, OF stolen subsidies and from men
who deny the right of the people to regu-
late fares and freights, but assert that
the managers of the several lines should
be allowed to charge what they please.
do as they please, and denouncs all who
oppose them as licentious and Infamous.
This charge against the pressis not made
by men who are willing far their pro.
ceedings to he examined, and conscious
of innocence, welcome scrutiny. 1t
comes from men whose acts are found
not to bear the light, and when rigid in
vestigation drags their misdeeds before
the public gaze, then the offenders fall
into frenzy of anger against the press,
because il called for scrutiny and de-
nounces those who are found to be
blameworthy. When this is done. then
the press becomes licentious, according
to the Sacramento Record. We are in
clined that license of this character will
snure greatly to the benefit of the public,
though such men as Poland, Shepherd
and subsidy Pomeroy may not like it.

WHEN THE PRESS Is LICEN.
TIOUS.

The Sacramento Record defends Pol
and and his gag law. and says:
But the so-called "eag.law" is not the
iniquitous measure it has been represent.
ed by mendacious newspapers and il il
had really been what it has been said to
be, there Is ample evidence Of the need
OF law to restrain the infamous 1icen-
tiousness of q press which has almost
ceased to exhibit the faintest regard for
justice. truth or honesty.
Indeed; it is pity that the press Of
the country is not managed upon the
model Of the Sacramento Rscerd. then
We suppose that it would cease to be
lioentious. When it stopped deioune-
ing the Central Pacific Contract and
Finance Company, ceased to ask for an
inspection Of the books Of that institu-
ton, was in favor of railroads charging
for fares and freights any thing their
managers pleased, advocated building
more roads at the public expense and
then giving them to this ring or that
knot of subsidy men; then We suppose
the press at large would be perfect like
the Sacramento Record, and then the
latter and its directors would be happy.
This, no Doubt is a contamination that our
Sacramento namesake devoutly wishes,
but we fear 1t will be long before its
hopes are realized. Public opinion at this
present time Is decidedly in favor OF the
press performing it's mission as the ad-
vocate and defender Of the peoples Just
rights in the most earnest aud effectual
manner possible. OF late years eorrup-
aion he's bscome 80 general in the ad.

SWEET CHARITY.

The Virginia papers mention, with APP
probation, the ready manner with which
the miners of the Crown Point con-
tribute to the relief OF their sick and
wounded comrades. The quality of
Charity, with its sweet sister Mercy. has
always been distinctive feature of the
coast. The rough hammered aud hard
handed miners carry within their bosoms
hearts more, far more accessible to APP
peals from the sick, unfortunate or help.
less than the smooth hammered, sleek
dressed denizens of towns and cities,
who nearly always pass on the other
side when they see case OF suffering or
distress. All honor to the men who,
while in pursuit OF their laborious aud
dangerous calling, never turn deaf ear
to the cry of the wretched and afflicted,
but from the pittance they so hardly
earn, offer a generous, nay, lavishing
proportion; and better still, DO it, not
grudgingly, but freely as the sweet airs
OF Spring bring health and vigor.
Their lavished generosity has passed
into proverb, aud is the boast of the
coast and the wonder Of the narrow.
souled, niggardly people of the East,
who would pass starving wretch with
as much nonchalance as il the sufferer
was paving stone. This is all true, and
We are all proud Of it, but for all that
one would think the men who own the
Crown Point mine would not allow any
miner that was injured in their service to
want for food or medical attendance, or
lacking these, to become burden on
his fellow laborers.

CALIFORNIA PIONEERS.

Yesterday there was grand eelebra-
ZION by the California Pioneers Of the
admission of that State into the Union.
The kilograms from San Francisco say
that the procession was quite imposing.
and its march was witnessed by tbou-
sands Of enthusiastic spectators. A
most interesting feature of the occasion
was the presence OF Marshall, the dis
coverer of the gold in Suffers tail race
at Coloma. What magical results has
that incident wrought in twenty-seven
years! The wilderness has been ex-
plored-millions upon millions of the
precious metals have been sent for the
aid of the commerce OF the world States
have been formed-cities have been built,
and the country that at the time of Mar
shall's discovery was tenanted by mere
handful of whites and some miserable
Indians, is now inhabited by numer-
Gus. intelligent and enterprising popula-
ton, dotted by thriving villages, hand
some towns and splendid cities, where
the arts and sciences are cultivated, and
civilization, in its nohlest form, marks
the epoch. Thoughts OF this nature
must have crowded on the mind of the
veteran Marshall as he passed along the
streets of San Francisco, with splendid
edifices rearing their imposing fronts on
every side, and the streets between them
filled with an immense population of all
ages, nationalities and occupations.
Viewing these, Marshall must have
thought of the day when the old-time
Yerba Buena numbered few
score Of houses nestled among the
yellow sandhills of the peninsula.
Another individual was in the procession
who was connected with one of the most
memorable, though melancholy incidents
that occurred in the settlement of Cali
fornia. This was W. j. Murphy, one OF
the survivors of the i'll fated Bonner
party. Close to the very spot where SO
many of those unfortunate people met
their death passes the Central Pacific
Railroad. aud the whistle of the locomo-
tive is now daily heard in md-Winter in
the lonely valley where those unhappy
adventurers starved and died. Time
works wondrous changes, but the trans
formation effected in California by first
gathering harvest of gold, and then of
grain, seems to outrival the cxtravagance
of q fairy tale. Like all .who live on this
coast, we are proud of the glorious Gold
en- State, and boast of its golden skies.
its golden sands and its golden grain.
In the Eastern States. in foreign coun-
tries, the people drag along somehow, a
sort of slow, sombre existence; but in
California they live. Live with all the
products of the earth and waters lying in
boundless profusion and unexampled
excellence at their very doors, and only
requiring ordinary exertion to pour forth
their treasures in obedient response to
the invocation Of honest industry. Our
sister State has noble career before her,
and we pray may grow in greatness and
prosperity, until her glory shall become
the wonder OF the earth.

A TELEGRAM from Winnemucca gives
the following particulars of brutal muir.
der committed at Rattlesnake Station, on
the line of the Northwestern Stage Com
pany: A young man, q stranger, came
into the station stating that he had
walked from the Owyhee River that day,
was tired and hungry. and wanted to get
work and something to eat. The cook of
the camp told him to sit down and the
boys would soon be in to supper. Robert
Douglass, hostler for the Northwestern
Stage Company, invited the man over to
his cabin to eat with him. He went with
Douglass, but soon after Douglass ran
him out OF his cabin with shotgun.
The man came over to the camp and
asked the cook what kind OF man Doug
lass was, saying he invited him to cat
and then chased him ont with gun. As
be asked the question Douglass came out
and says: "You son Of b-h; you are
talking about me-" At that, Douglass
shot, the charge taking effect in the neck
and severing the juggler vein, the man
dying almost instantly. The cook told
Douglass You have killed the man."
He said: II don't care; will kill an
other one." Immediately after, Doug
lass took one Of the stage horses aud
rode of, and it is known that the stage
company assisted him into Silver City,
and that Mr.. Baker. Division Agent,
paid Douglass of and let him go. From
a tax receipt found in the murdered
mans pocket, given in Owyhee district,
they found his name was II. Walker; also,
money to the amount OF $160 in gold
notes, which was sent to P. Burr, con.

Cured at Gallaghers ranch. The cir.
cumstances were as follows: The man
Smith was good deal under the inHu-
ence OF liquor, and some OF the mon
about the ranch got hold Of his whisky
bottle and hid it. For the "fun Of the
thing" they gave Smith to understand
that Schooley had taken it. He accused
Schooley of the theft, when the latter
told him he was a liar II be said that be
had taken the bottle. Smith told
Schooley he should not call him q liar
that he must take it back. This
Schooley refused to do. when smith
stepped into the house, and coming out
armed with . shotgun, levelsd the
weapon on him and agsin told him to
take back what be had said or he would
ere. Schooley still refused to retract,
when Smith fred. The shot took effect

IL Virginia they fined man Sl5 for
being drunk and asleep. This looks un-
kind, for if tie fellow were drunk, surely
the best thing be could do was to sleep
off the fumes Of the "sheep herder's de-
light" that he had swallowed, and 50 get
sober. Those Comstockers are queer
people; probably the next thing they
will do will bs to fine whole temper
ance society for not getting drunk.
