The report OF this committee touching

promises to DO interesting There is now
no doubt that one or more OF the
officials who have. to do with the receipt
aud expenditure Of the public funds have
manipulated them morcin their own In
tcrest than in that Of the State. II Is a
sorry CON plihant lNsthe last tegislauro
that II lailedto get at this suspected mall
icasanco in Office. The matter was fully
discussed during the last session in the
newspapers, and II is nototieus that many
members not onl y SUSPECTED bhl believed
that there was "rottenness In Denmark"
And yet the investigation that was ordered
at that time turned oht to be a farce
Thete seemed to be no one Willing to
probe the matter to the bottom. Some
sort Of sinister influences seemed to bc at
work to defeat a thorough investigation.
And thus II was that nothing ever came
Of the agitation Of the subject a year ago.
We are glad that the pseseatt t69eiittte
has shown more moral courage than its
predecessor. TIE indications arc that
one Of the "bonan1as" has been struck,
and that within the next few days VI
shall have some developments in regard

twenty per cent per annum IL not
uncommon. This being the case 1t
is pretty good thing to get, a
heavy line Of deposits atsS4 and 9

get forty and fifty thousand dollars at
these rates can afford to come down libcr-

Letter tFom WI. s. King.

ST. PAUL, MIMI, February la,-A long
letter has been received from W. S. King,
addressed to the Legislature in response
to resolution requesting him 10 explain
his connection with the Pacific Mail busi'
ness or resign as q member elect Of the
next Congress. King denies the right o.
tho Legislature 70 inquire into his pEi-
vate affairs or to undertake 70 Censure or
demand bis resignution, and denOuncGs
as a legislative lie (which epithet he puts
in italic) the assumption that he had done
anything wrong. He then adds: "uRder
what arrangement l did receive . large

age Of the Pacific Mail subsidy Is q mat

facts to be presented which will bring 10
me the fullest md most complete vindi-
cation against the falSehoods which you
have specified upon me in your respec.
tive journals. Until that time, which
trust Ia not far distant, have only to osay
that not one uOllaf OF tEle money FeCeiNeu
by me, OF which so much has been talked

to influence vote on the Pacific Mail

The RaiIroad MaF.

tween the Baltimore ~ DnlO FOpu uOu tut
Pennsylvania Central. We have a sam
ple Of it every year or two. We had one
last year, and now We have another one
lust broken out. The troubIe is that the
Baltimore road will not come into the
railroad ring, but persists in pursuing an
independent policy and fixing its rates 70
suit itself. Now that it has road OF Its
own clear through to Chicago, and likwise
a desirable connection with St. Louis, it
i. in a position to make its influence felt
throughout the West, One thing
It lacks, however, and that is an
independent line between Baltimore
and New York. The Pennsylvania
road completely subordinatcs iH rival in
this respect. The Baltimore road is u
sort Of poor relation by comparison,
Hence, every once in while, when things
ont West displease Mr.. Scott, he under
takes to punish and control his rival by
refusing to honor its tickets on his New
Jersey leased lines, NoSoone5 however,
does he pull this string than tho Balti-
more road goes him ono better, and puts
down the fare from Baltimore to all
points West, that induces tho travelling
public to- buy tickets TO Baltimore and
there purchase fresh ones TO the West
and dsouth. This sort Of retaliation was
effective last year in compelling Scott to
como to terms. II Is understood that llc
got stomach full OF the fight before It
was over, and that he was quite ready 70
treat with his rival for aSuspension Of
hostilities. Mr.. Garrett IL striking him
in the same sore spot this time, Passcn'
ger rates to all parts Of The West have
been put down from thirty to fifty per
cent via Baltimore, and Of course the Penn
Sylvania road Is obliged to meet the re-
duction. This Is costly amusement to
that road inasmuch as IL is vastly more of
apasscnger route than the Baltimore "
Ohio. The latter simply Gxes the rate at
which ita rival shall do business IL IL
the same as II one OF the nall mills OIL
this city should put down the price OF
nails to u losing standard and then
let lts rivals take the orders, which, MS We

A HUMBOLDT ZEPHYR. - Yesterday is
conceded to be the windiest day. taken
as a whole, ever experienced in Winnie
mucca. 1t has blown hard at times
heretofore, but, for steady days work
on the ten hour system, Old Boreas
never excell.d yesterdays labors on
the Humboldt The sahara between
the Court house and the railroad was IA
terror to pedestrians, and none but the
bravest or most desperate attempted
to cross it. The school-house was en-
veloped in cloud Of dust and sand,
and none of the scholars had the te-
mefity to venture outside of the build
ing during recess. The road leading
through this moving sand heap, from
Bridge street TO the depot, on which
James Manning bus spread tons of
stable manure in the last week or two,
was covered at least foot deep with
drifting sand, and tons of il was car
ried into the raviue north of the street
1t was sand here, there, everywhere;
in fact it literally rained sand all day.
There is no doubt but what the Direc-
tors of the Central Pacific Railroad,
had they been here yesterday and
passed through this binding sand
storm, would have at once ordered the
removal of the depot and the whole
upper town down to the river bottom,
and sent their names down to posterity
