The mill of c. G. Stevenson, Lower

one or two other mills are having their
furnaces arranged for burning this coal

in constant use for running the engine
used in hosting. The company have
their dumps completed (ihey are con-
structed with gates. the same as ore

of unquestioned ability, of much learn

misconduct on the part of the Chief
Justice; that the Partially Of the Bench

its downfall to its conduct in regard to
the case, and that the defeat of the mo-

the country. Kenealy's motion found

The provisions contained in the Coinage
Act Of 1873, and silver coins of the de-
nomination of half and quarter dollars
and dimes to be paid at the Mint at
Philadelphia and the Assay Office in New
York for silver bullion purchased for
such coinage. expired by limitation on
the 18th of February. Such coins will
not, therefore, be issued hereafter in
payment for silver bullion deposits or
purchases at the several MINIS or the
Assay Office in New York, but will be ex-
changed for gold coin at par in sums not
less than 800. Silver bullion may be
deposited as heretofore for bars or trade
dollars. Silver bullion, separated from
gold deposits, will be paid for in gold
coin at such valuation as may be estao-
lished from time to time by the Director
of the Mint. For the present and until
further notice such silver will be paid for
at the rate of 1927 cents for standard
ounce. Silver coins. other than trade
dollars, are manufactured on account OF
the Government only. and silver bullion
required for that purpose will be pur'
chased when needed.

One WAY to Resume.

The bankers OF Indianapolis are tax
ing the first practical steps towards the
resumption of specie payment, that
have come to our notice. The prom
issory notes now being used by the
banks OF Indianapolis contain a pro-
vision, that II the note be paid at ma
turity, or before suit is brought thereon,
then it shah be paid in any lawful
money of the United States but other
wise principal and interest shall be
paid In gold. In other words, IL the
note be paid at maturity, IL may be
paid in greenbacks; butt its collection
has to be enforced at law, 1t must be
paid In gold. An Indiana bank re-
Gently brought suit on one of its notes
Of this kind. and obtained judgment,
payable In gold. Had Congress added
a clause to its act OF last winter, for the
forced resumption of specie payments
on the first of January 1879, enacting
that all contracts made from and after
a certain date should be payable in
gold, thus prospectively repeating the
legal tender law, it would have proved
an adequate provision to bring about
specie payments, a quality 1t does not
now possess.

and that, up to the present time, not a
train has been delayed by snow this
winter. A sleet. storm prevailed on
the western division Of the U. P. r.
R., last Monday, which storm broke
down the telegraph wires and thus in
terfered somewhat with the handling
of freight trains. but nc passenger
trains suffered any serious delay.

The editor of the Sentinel Keeps
on "tooting his horn" which he has a
perfect right to do. But when he says
his paper is the best published in the
Territory, he perpetrates n stupendOus
hoax and tells n story that would
make a horse laugh. OF course, every
body who reads the Wyoming news
papers. knows hat the Sentinel is the
--LATEST and cheapest apology for a
daily journal to be found in a weeks
journey. BY setting but little type, by
furnishing no brains for editorial work
and otherwise cutting down expenses,
the Sentinel manages to impose upon
its readers, thus making a few dollars
annually but if the proprietors had a
lively, enterprising and sensible com
petitor in Laramie City, they would
soon be Obliged to increase their ex-
penses and furnish a better paper, or
else give up the publishing business.
