Doc Rankin, who has been on
tr,iness trip to his old homs IA Iowa,
returned ON yesterdays railroad stage,
He informs us Of . shooting ARRAY that
occurred on the Unlsn Pacific train al
Green River station Oh Friday last. In
which q passenger crazed with liquor,
deliberately shot the night operator II
place, whose rame Is Putney, and, on
an attempt being made to arrest him,
lie also shot the Sheriff. The operator
was struck In the left breast and his
wound Il supposed to be mortal. The
shooter was taken Into custody. and
at the time the train left there was q
strong talk Of lynchlng him.
-, are informed BY a gentleman
who has just arrived from Ida VAL
ley. that OH the 18th instant there was
a severe snow storm at that place,
which was accompanied by frequent
flashes Of lightning which made things
hswl for awhile. A number Of yeats
were killed and several stovsplpss
were wrecked; but, luckily, no human
beings were injured severely, though
one man was knocked As cold as
wedge.
The stage from Battle Mountain,
while on Its way to this city, night be-
fore last, tipped v aud dumped out
the occupants. Some Of the passen.
gers sustained slight bruises, but,
luckily, none Of them IN seriously
Injured.

Black, his attorney, went before that
Committee and after personally insult
ing Senators Jones and Sargent BY
asking them questions which would
only se pertinent In tho examination
Of a Juror In a murder trial, asked that
the bill before that Committee DO re-
ferred to another. Senators Jones,
Sargent and Hamlln objected, dsclar-
Ing that such action would be not en-
ly insulting to them but unprecsdsnt-
cd In the history Of the Senate. But,
unfortunately, the othcr members OF
that Committee arc carpet-baggcrs
and were pledged In advance to sutro.
They voted In his interest and the bill
was referred to the judiciary Com
mit,ce. This proceeding has aroused
much indignation In tho Senate and
will undoubtedly react unfavorably to
Sutro's interest. The names Of this
dslsctable quartstte are. Upton Of Ne

A WRONG CONCLUSION.

When tho Phoebe Record, In an able
article ZONE few days ago, avowsd Ito
preference for Mr.. Sharon as the next
U. s. Senator from this State, aud
gave cogsnt and satisfactory reasons
therefor, We noticed the fact In these
words:
The Plschs Record, although a Dem
ocratic Journal, as will BE- seen by the
following extract from q recent edito-
rial. has made up Its mind that a gem
tleman belonging to the Republican
party Il the best nan to succeed Hon.
w. NJ. Stewart as United States Sena.
tor from Nevada.
The Record, misinterpretlns or
meaning, alleges that the only conclu-
sion to be drawn from the above 10 that
it .svors Mr.. Sharon because he 10 .
Republican. The editor Of that jour-
nal plainly did not read u comment
carefully. We fail to sec wherein a
statement that q journal favors a men,
Der OF a party, can be tortured into
conveying the Idea that It does so SOLE
ly because he is such member. As we
remarked before, We deem the reasons
given by the Record, FOR the position It
has assumed In this particular, satis-
factory and conclusive. Ifsvsry jour-
nal In this State can give As good ar.
guments In support OF the position IL
assumes and the candidates It favsrs,
there will DO less personality and more
principle charactsrizing the next cleo
ton than have heretofore been appar.
eut.

M nus,NEss TO INrERMEDDLE.

Brooks and Baxter, the rival can
Jldates for the Governorship OF Ar
kansas, have each semi attorneys to
Washington, who will shortly submit
written arguments in support OF their
respective clients to tho President.
This Il a strange proceeding. For the
life OF Us we cinnss soc wherein the
President has any right, or why he
should be called upon to interfere with
tho matter. These men were rival
candidates at the last election for Gov
ernor Of Arkansas. Baxter was de-
clared elected, aud Brooks appealed to
the courts. He has since that time
boon litigating his claims before the
inferior aud superior State courts. He
obtained = judgment Of custer against
Baxter, aud by . llttls strategy, OBJ
talnsd possession OF the oIilce, under
an order Of the court without blsod-
shed. lie still holds 1t, aud Baxter
has the same means through which his
opponent sought the Office. viz: an zap
peal to the higher courts Of Arkansas.
lie proposes, however, to rest his case
before tho Legislature whom he tas
called to meet In special s~ession, evil.
IDENTIFY deeming his chances better be-
fore that political body than before q
judicial tribunal. Whistler or not a
Legislature has power to decide this
matter we are not certain. Indeed, 1t
seems to be open to grave doubt. But
we are fully convinced that until the
matter 1, finally determined by State
authorities having full jurisdiction, be
they tho Supreme Court or the Lesis-
lature, the President has no more to
ds with the matter than has the Queen
OF England. IL Is vuiphatically aud
solely n State question; In no sense
governmental or national. Not until
the decision Of a competent tribunal
has been announced aud resistance has
been made to Its orders, so as to defy
the power Of the State, has the Gen.
eral Government any business to In
termeddle. Its sole duty then Is to
aid the State to enforce the DEGREES OF
Its courts.

In the Meadow Valley, In shaft No.
8, on the 1200-foot level, q station Is
being opened and 10 now In about
eight feet. This level IL calculated to
connect with tho lowest level Of the
Raymond.& Ely, and will have about
800 feet to reach the dividing line be-
tween that company and the Meadow
Valley. At the ll00.foot statien tho
west drift 10 In 1si feet. The drift Is
following the ledge, which shows q
strsng yeln, but very little ore. The
east drift on the same level Is Ia LOG
feet and looks promislng, but, like tho
west DRIFT on the same level has but
little ore. The west Wine on the
tenth level, which Is being sunk 200
feet west Of the shaft, Is down u feet.
So for Il has shown nothing Important.
The east drift on the 9th level 10 In
100 feet, and shows about the same as
last reported. Shaft No. 8 10 down
1922 feet, and IL being sunk as rapidly
As possible. The ore breasts In the
stspes Of Ne. 3 are locking well, and
continue to yield about as much ore
As heretofore.
At the Raymond & Ely there 10 but
little change to report. The DRIFT to-
ward tho ledge on the l200-feot level
Il now absut ZIG feet In length. Sink
Ing has not been resumed on the shaft.
In the upper levels STOPPING Is going
on, and about the Same quantity Of ore
extracted a. usual. On the tenth level
tho ledge Is being followed. 1t con-
talns ore, but 10 thin. The work Of
prospecting is progressing steadily
aad systematically, aud will no doubt
bs ultimately rewarded by discoveries
Of q character similar to these which
have already made the Raymond Il
Ely mine 90 celebrated.

FEMALE rRkAsrny CLERKS.

In considering the Appropriation
Bill In the House last week q pro-
was added which abollshss all
distinction between the male and
female employees OF the United States
Treasury Department, In the matter
Of salary. At present there Is a nu-
nervous class Of employees, officially
designated a. female clerks, whose sal
airy 10 $500 per annum. Women are
also eligible to the better paid grades
OF clsrkshlps held BY men, aud not
few receive as high as sl,eoo and 1880
a year. BY far the greater number,
however, belong to the first-named
class, which can only b filled by fe-
male appoiatsss. The effect Of the
proviso will DO to abolish this class
aud add It's occupants to the lowest
grade Of regular slerkshlps, Of which
the salary 10 $1,000. There was no
debate on tho proposition. A CORES.
pondent OF the New York Tribune,
writing upon this subject, says, how.
ever, that much Is said against 1t In
conversation by people who strongly
favor tho system Of giving women
Government employment. 1t Is ar
gued that II there 10 no class Of clerk
ships reserved exclusively for women,
they will DO crowded cut OF the Treas
ury by men who. having political In
nusnce, will possess . great advantage
In the keen strife for Office. Such NO.
men NJ succeed In obtaining or retain
log pos itions under these clrcum-
stances will, Il Is feared, DO the least
deserving persons, In short, those who
have peculiar claims upon the services
Of Congressmen and other influential
officials, rather than those whsse worth
and ability to perform the required
duties make them desirable clerks. AZ
to the question Of salary there issoms-
| thing to be said on both sides. While
IL 10 true that women who receive but
5000 render service Of more value than
Is rendered BY hundreds Of malo clerks
who get $1,000 or $l.4OO, 1t is equally
true that, rs rule, the work OF tho
female clerks Is either copying or
counting money, which does not re-
quice a great amount OF talent, and
that their salary Of $40 = month Is q
moro liberal compensation than the
majority Of women teachers and
others In unofficial smployments re-
celvs, whose vocatisns demand a
degree Of talent and integrity fully AZ
high as is required for a Treasury
/ clerk.

SUNDAY SPORTS AT LEwIsvILLE, CHESTER COUNTY
-AvENaING AN INSULT TO sons CHARACTER.
Notwithstanding the fact that Chester county
is Local Option county, and sharp lookout
is kept for infractons of the law, occasionally
an episode turns up which shows the erring side
of human nature as plainly as in the days of
liquor and license.
One of these out-croppngs of erring humanity
took place on Sunday at Lewisvie, small VII
lape a short distance over the Delaware line, IN
Chester county. The following, as near as can
be ascertained, are the particulars OF the case
Some few DAYS ago, n couple of females were
ndecently assaulted by two young men who IN.
stead of giving their own names gave those OF
two reputable young men well-known in the VI
cnity of Lewlsville. These two young men
were consequently arrested and taken before a
Justice of tile Peace, where the evidence was OF
such a character as to show that they were not
implicated, and were discharged. One oil the
acquitted young men, by name Joln Lee,
smartng under this unprovoked attack upon
his character, had very strong reasons TOT pe-
| lieyino that one of the real culprits was man
| bv the name of TAYLOR, q son of Joseph Taylor
the landlord at the Lewisvile hotel, and az the
same time expressed himself as being fully con
vnced of Taylor's guilt .r.
| Thus matters went until sunday, the lztl m
stant when Lee, who was walking along tnt
main street of the village, was hailed by the eld
or TAYLOR and invited to stop at the hotel. Lee
had no sooner stopped than Taylor accused nm
of yilhfving his soii, and Immediately strucl
him blow with his list. Lee, recovering from
the stunning sensation, paid Taylor back in the
same com, and gave him black eye in the bar
gain. At this crisis another avenger appeared
npon the scene, and Lee found an enemy IN the
shape of a bull pup attacking him in the rear
which in these days of hydrophobla filled hin
with considerable alarm.
Drawing small pistol from his pocket, Whcl
was intended for the dog, although Taylo
doubted it. a sculfle ensued for the possession
of the pistol, which was discharged, sending it
contents through the fleshy part of Lees thigh
The fight having become somewhat serious, a
well as disgraceful, outsiders finally interfere
and Mn. Lee was taken to his home near by
where his wounds were properly dressed Som
visitors in the vicinity, unused to such scenes
thought if that was the way Sunday was passed
the other part of the week must be decided
unpleasant.
