last November, from Southern Utah across
the mountains 10 the San Juan mines.
Colorado, and were reported last March
oy one OF their companions named Pack.
er, TO have undergone terrible hardships
in The mountains, and finally become
nearly crazy from hunger and chose lots
TO see who should be shot to furnish food
for the remainder. This story was pub-
lished at the time In the TsribfiaI and
other papers. It is now proved that
Packer murdered these men, choppinp
their heads with hatchet, robbed them
OF their money and other valuables, and
then told the story Of csnnibalism to hide
The crime. He was arrested, however,
and Is now In jail. The names Of the
party murdered are Roel Swami, from

be from Ohio; James Humphrey, SUP.

The Convention In the Second Dis
tFicl To-day,

HlCk AOsuugs
The Convention called to meet at Gran
berry summit to nominate candidate
for Congress in opposition to Mr.. FAuIK.
MIR oonyenes to-day. AgreSt deal Of In.
terest Is ielt throughout the State In the
result olthe proceedings. It willtake the
strongest and most harmonious nomina.
ton that can be made to give decided en-
couragement to those labOripg for bis dc.
feat, and II they are discouraged at the
outset the contest will probably be Tor
lorn hope throughout the canvass.
The vote in this District In 1872, for
Gov. Jacob, was 14.067, aS against II 037
for Camden? Governor Jacob received
nearly 5000 more votes than the highest
Republican vote previously cast In theDIs.
trict while Camden received nearly 4OCO
more than the highest Democrat vote ever
cast before. The main point to decide in
the present campaign IS as 10 howtheJacob
vote will no cast, inasmuch as 1t will de-
eide who shall represent the District in
Congress. The straight Republican vote
in 1870 stood (for McGrew) 0, OIL as against
sO0S for Downey (Dem). TheRepublicans
gained no.votes from the campaign Of 1868,
but lost few while the Democrats gained
over 1900. The campaign Of 1872 devel.
oped no new facts as TO the relative
strength Of parties,l owing to the hitch
about the proper day for an election, but
the aggregate vote Of the District was i'm.
mensely increased that year. As compared
with the vote Of 1870 1t increased nearly
10000. To this increase the negro vote
contributed less than 1900, as by the
Auditors report.ot 1871 there was less
than that many colored males in the Dis
tricG over 81 years old. It Is therefore
fair to infer that the increase came mainly
from the "let up" on those formerly dis.
lranchised, and also from a more general
disposition among the people to partici.
pate in elections. Indeed there Is no room
for inference in the case. The increased
vote in such counties as Jefferson shows
very plainly where the great bulk of the
new vote came from. That county in
1868 under the JoE CHArINE regime)
cast only 1923 votes, while in 1870 Gust
after the "let up'Y it cast ! ,O46 votes, and
in 1879 (after the people got used to
vOting) II cast 2,6l9 votes. On the other
hand, MonongaliA county cast less votes
in 1879 Qor jacob and CAMDEN) than it
cast at the Presidential election in 1868.
These figures show how strong was the
independent" vote at the Gubernatorial
election in 1872, and how uncertain,
therefore, must be the result in the cam
pAign this year. What adds to this un-
certainty Is the fact that General GRANT
in 1872 received 11,77S votes, against
$500 for GREELEY, and that the aggre.
gate vote at that election fell over 5 1000
short Of that cast lew days previous for
JACOB and CAMDEN. -rs
