BAD OPINION OF HM.--An edi-
torial in the Salt Lake &C Tribune"
Of March 10Th, is very severe on
S. B. Axtell, the recently appointed
Governor of Utah. It winds up as
follows: ~.5.. In. .e-..s
Axtell is believed by the great
majority of the loyal people of
Utah to be corrupt, dishonest, and
incapable in his position as Gov
ernor of Utah Territory. He has
been guilty Of willful falsehood,
unmanly and dishonorable conduct
in presence of ladies, and believing
that we express the general verdict
of our loyal fellow citizens, it only
remains to say in plain, unmistak-
able English, that we believe
Samuel B. Axtell to be man en-
tirely destitute of valor, truth or
personal honor.

On the whole there is reason to
believe that the Senate Committees
have been somewhat improved by
the reorganization announced in our
Washington dispatches. The most
apparent defects in the reorganization
are those caused by the obedience of
the Senate to requirements of ETH
quette or by following precedents not
easily evaded. 1t is encouraging TO
find the Committee having charge OF
financial matters reinforced by the
appointment of Senators who are
earnest friends of an honest currency.

THE Oregon papers are rejoicing

THE Oregon papers are rejoicing
over the discovery of bonanza at
Galice Creek mines. The Portland
Bulletin gives the annexed descrip-
ton of it: This the Yank LEDGE
is 296 feet wide where it crosses
Rogue river, and rises clearly from
the bottom of the gulch to the hight
of from 800 to 500 feet; of course no
one can tell how deep it descends
toward the center of the earth. The
casing on one side is iron ore, and
the other slate. The ledge has been
traced for distance of twenty-five
miles, and sufficient quartz has been
found on one ledge to keep five
hundred mills running hundred
years.

chance at present for the Republican
nomination for the Presidency.

liable to get out. We learn that

to get lien on the machine, the
agents wished the purchaser to
sign a contract, which he at the
time refused to do, hence the
agents removed the machine. Ev-
