party Of the Administ ration. 1t is distinct
aud emphatic robuke. The causes assiEnei
for the defeat of tho Republican State
ticket iast year weio tho local disaiseclion
Ia Now Haven, aud various personal con-
sderatiOns that woie Supposcd 10 aaecf
the CANVASS. This year the Administration
ticket was made up OF candidates whose
personal popularity was conceded, and in
stead of the disadvantage OF a lack OF har-
mony in New Haven, the party profited
largely by split In the Democratic ranks,
which cut down the majority for lngersOll
rom upwards of 1850 iast year to 300 this
year. In spite of this the Opposition fias
reelected al, OF the present State officers by
q majority q iittle sand n plurality about
the same as last year, and has carried both
branches OF The Assembly py Increased ma
jorities.
The defeat is simply overwhelmning
The thoughtful observer of current political
events has not far to look tor ihe causes OF
this significant result. Idle }aborlnR men
and dissatisfied employees, who have wait
ed in vain for sonIo s;:,n ola acomprohoD sion
OF the financial disturbanSs on Inc part of
Congress or tue uistrstion, have regis.
tered at the polls their des re- and demand
for change. Republicans who have lqved
the party rom its birth, and had tho best
wishes tor it's continued prosperity, IL only
the country could prosper with it, have
either voted the Opposition ticket or refused
to vote at all. The disclosures of a grasp
ing, ovorreaching disposition on the part of
the man in power, disgust for moiety,
grabbing and salary grabbing, for Butler-
Ism and Simmousism, and for the men at
Washington who uphold q shonest admin

had their effect on the vote. - IrltaJlc.

Large Fees.

An examination of the estate OF the late Mrs
Hill, who was murdered by her sonn-law Twits
cheli, in Philadelphia, some years ago, is now be
ing made by an Auditor OF rhila The evidence
published in the Philadelphia Telegraph of sstur
day and Monday evening, Is very lengthy ant
deeply interesting. Itappcars from testimony BY
VIM. b. Mann, the counsel OF Twcschell that hi
received fee of "a $50 for his share in the defense
and 1t is stated also that John O'Byrue, Esq re
ceivsd also about "a. 900 to 1000. Mann was
paid his fee BY Mr.. O'Byrnc, who, he says, sold
a mortgage on the house in which the mufd
was committed for $50 90 or $4,000 These arc
pretty large foes. 1t would be interesting ia
know what VIM M. Tweed paid his counsel for
defence.
In this case of Twtchcl some difficulty has
arisen between Mrs. Twitchell and her law ad-
visen. She now says her mother was in the habit
OF carrying large sums Of money In her bosom
She had seen her with q large sum on the after
noon of the murder She had seen her with as
much as $40. 900 in her bosom.
Before the trial came on Mcssrs. Mann aud
O'Byrne visited Twitohei in prison; learned where
to find slung shat in a hole in the ceaJ of The
residence where the murder was committed and
they went there and got 1t. Mrs. Twitchei and
some Of her friends have insinua.ed that the mon
ey her. mother was known to carry in her bosom
in large notes. was concealed In the same place
whore the slung shot was found. The Auditor In
settling up the estate is taking evidence to show
what become of the effects. 1heIwhole evidence
is interesting ami shows bow hard it is for wrong
doers TO keep their ili-gotton gains Mann would
not serve until he was sure of his pay--and hav-

DEATH OF JOHN c. JAMES. -The Carson
Appeal, of Sunday, announces the death
of Mr.. James, which occurred at Carson
the night before. This gentleman was
formerly member of the Territorial
Legislature, when Nevada was a part OF
Utah. OF his last illness, the Appeal
says: John James was taken quite
suddenly sick yesterday afternoon, and
is confined TO his room in consequence.
The first symptoms of illness were OBJ
servable while he was in conversation
with Mr.. II. j. Nudge, at the Magnolia.
These symptoms (Which came very sud-
denly were those of partial paralysis.
and he had to be supported and helped
rs he went to Mudge's room in the Z. S.
Marshal's Office, County Buildings. For
tunately his brother, Mr.. l. 4. James,
was in town, and was soon brought to
Johns bedside. DR.. Allen was called in,
and he administered such remedies as he
deemed applicable. Ike James says that
John has been for some months subject
to lighter attacks of this SOFT"
The DECISION. 1869 tax suit was
tried in the District Court last Wednes-
day. Judge Harris decided that the tax,
and all cases of the former suit, had been
fully paid by the railroad company. The
basis upon which the decision was rem
bered, was, if we understand it Alright,
that the company having paid into the
County Treasury something over 500, 900
since the commencement of the suit-not
including the amounts paid as taxes for
the years 1872 and 1S73-and that amount
being in excess of the tax of the year
1863, and the costs arising out of the suit
that the company were entitled to credit
for that sum, and the go debt being the
oldest, it was proper to apply an amount
out of the $50, 900 necessary for itsliquid-
alton. This being the views entertained
by the Court, it is reasonable to suppose
that should suits be commenced for the
taxes for the years 1901 that the Court
would hold that the taxes for these years
was not paid, unless there should remain
n sufficient amount of the $22, 900 (after
deducting the amount due for tax for the
year 1869, and costs of the former suit
to pay the tax due on those years
