NUcH relief is anticipated in COM
nercial circles west and south by
he passage Of the new bankrupt
law. The Bee has already referred
70 this act In general terms. but we
deem It Of sufficient importance to
furnish our readers a synopsis of
the most important features of the
new law.
Forty days are allowed to elapse
before . merchant or trader who
fails to pay his commercial paper is
liable to be thrown into bankruptcy.
The assent OF one-fourth i'm number
and one-third In value of the cred
iton II required to throw q debtor
Into bankruptcy. This provision re-
lAtes back to the first of last Deem
hsr. Proceedings may be discon-
tinued whenever the debtor pays
those secured debts which were the
ground Of throwing him into bank
Iuptcy, or whenever the consent Of
the coart can be obtained and q ma
josity q the creditors shall ask for
discontinuance of the proceedings.
In order to set aside hypothetical
plodges or lOans on a bankrupt's
ostate, 1t must appear that the party
asaling with the bankrupt knew
that he intended to perpetrate q
fraud ON the bankrupt lay, and that
h intended to 90 into bankruptcy.
When . loan Is made to q bankrupt
n eoed faith and security taken
With intention OF aiding him
:. pun through, 1t shall be
eonakdored As having actual
vnlne, end the security shall not be
invalidAted by proceedings in bank
suqtey. a voluntary bankrupt may
hsve his discharge II his estate pays
thifty per cent. Of his debts, or pro-
ND he obtains the consent Of the
0men number of his creditors as is
nsesnaxy to throw him into bank
Nuptcy. An involuntary bankrupt
oan Got his discharge il his conduct
= hoe fr0m all fraud and he is
inDocoot Of any violation or in
linRujLn ut ofthe bankrupt act. As.
dgnees ere prohibited from divid-
~ fees with other persons engaged
= the 0Ase. Composition by credit
= msy be made with the assent of
~ debtor, providing a majority Of
H. sroditon Join, where approved
the court for release and dis
ArReof the debtor. The fees and
oxncnsoe ore reduced one-half until
ths judges of the su-
irene court shall estab-
iish . permanent reduction and
dmplify the proceedings. All the
se6 Of the persons connected with
execution Of the law shah be made
public In the shape Of fulland minute
lspasts rom the clerk. the assignee.

original Jurisdiction IL conferred

app6al to the supreme court Of the

the losses sustained by certain citizens

campaign against the Modocs:
The bill for reimbursing losses SuS-
tanned by citizens i'll southern Oregon

rotations in 1872 and 1873. provoked
quite an excited discussion. in which
Shank~ defended the memory of Capt.

fact that when zen Candy was mold
ing his conference with Capt. Jack. the
| military lines were being closed
around the Modocs.
The bin itself was opposed by G.. +,

POLITYCS.

After abiding to the independence OF
the voters of this State. as shown by
the latest elections. the Battle Noun
tain Measure for Measure arrives at
the following conclusions:
The knowledge that the people of all
parties must put their best men. and
mainly new men. forward. will operate
to bring out acceptable nominations.
Tie theories and published platforms
of both parties have been good enough
the faith of the voters must be Sc
cured to the men named for the places,
else the party. whichever it may he,
will be throttled in its candidates 10y
the independent voters.
The Granger organization. as a leader
of the independent forces, will scarcely
take a strong position ut the front. The
farmers i'll Nevada are willing to pro-
duce grain. flour. pork, hay. and vege-
tables. III quantity to supply the nome
demand. They are content that the
railroad monopoly. Or Whatever You
may call it. shall preserve a freight
tariff to exclude California farm pro-
duets from a ruinouS competition. BY
this means they gel an incidental pro-
lection. allowing better prices.
The Granger movement will be like
" to take no more tragic attitude in
this State than to demand. in general.
an assurance of reform in some of the
more general line OF abuses Of political
power
