The people Of Louisiana will be graft
fed to learn that the Congressional Com

9uire into the recent tragedy which oc-
CURED at Coushatta. We shall be glad

The killing Of the six bogus officials and
professional robbers which took place
there in 1874. We happen to know q
great deal about the events which led

sincerely condemn what has been done.

Chinese Investigation convened at
the Palace Hotel at $50 this after.
noon; present, Senator Morton,
Chairman; Senator Sargent and Re-
representatives. Meder and Piper.
Mayor Bryant. DR., Meares, Cameron
II King, Chief Ellis, Frank Pixley
of the Citizens Committee, and
Senator McCoppin were present On
invitation. Senator Morton said the
meeting was called TO hear sugyes-
items aud to decide who should be
called to testify. Mayor Bryant
offered several suggestions, and
hoped the Committee would person.
ally visit the Chinese. quarters aud
see how the residents lived. Senator
Sargent hoped witnesses would come
freely OF their own accord and give
their TESTIMONY. He did not like the
idea OF issuing subpenas to compel
their attendance. Mr.. Pixiey sug-
gested that the testimony taken by
the Senate Committee should become
part Of the record of the Congrcsslon-
al Committee. That testimony had
been carefully taken by intelligent
and impartial judges. Senator
Morton IN reply said that the testi-
mony would he very useful as refer
ence, and might be accepted AS al
exhibit of experts. Nevertheless lie
thought it would give a wider salts
faction to conduct the inquiry on
points involved in that report.
Mcssrs. Pixley aud MrGnppin agreed
to submit the opening Statement f''r
the State and the munjci-aiity on
Saturday morning at ten O'Clock.
Mr.. Bee furnished the COMMITTEES the
names of several witnesses and prom
ised to give others On Monday.

Although our nominees for the
Legislature msy pledge themselves to
support the bullion tax law - 1t now
stands, when elected and In their
seats they viii probably not hesitate
To support . measure for its repeal
Reno Gazette.
The Gazette must have very little
faith in humanity at large, and es-
pecially in legislators. When u
man pledges his honor to consti.
tuency, he gives all the assurance
that lies in his power to give, unless
he hypothecate his property rs a
contingency. The Presidential cleo
tors do no more than pledge them
selves to the conventions that they
will support the nominees Of the
party. In case of = close contest the
electors might he able to sell out
for high price. They have never
sold out, however. We should die
like 10 believe that men are so care
less of their record and so regardless
of all the principles of honesty as to
discard constituency as soon ~
they got into office. We think there
are very few who would do that.
The Republican nominees for the
legislature from thi county are all
men of character and they are all
firmly ~pledged to the people on
this important question of the bull
lion tax. The case is not the same
with the nominees of the Mongrel
party. The platform of that party
is especially weak on this point. and
not a single nominee of the conven-
ton that adopted it was asked to
subscribe to its principles. The
people should remember that the
Republican candidates are firmly
pledged in this matter, while the
Mongrel candidates are left free to
act AS they choose. Should every
one OF them vote for repeal of the
bullion tax law, the people would
have no redress. In the other case
the people would have the redress
of RELOCATING all of them to the
shades of a dishonorable oblivion.

THEY talk of starting club in
Silver City. They have some ex-
ceiient material for q tirst-class
Sazerac there.
The foregoing is from Loomis of
the Enterprise, gentleman of as
high a mind and as pure character
as ever put pen to paper. 1t is there
fore strange that he should tell So
bare-faced a Sazerac lie as that ia
the paragraph above. Let him and
the public at large understand that
every one down this way is truthful.
There is little institution here that
lies more from taste than from
motive, and represents very fitting
~ the uutruthfulness of the whole
district. Aside irop that institution
there is in Silver rectitude Of
speech and assertion that is the very
antepodes Of Sazerac. Even the
respectable journalists of the place
shun lie. Mr.. Loomis ought u
come down here and reside awhile.
Even his moral character would be
benefited by the association. if he
stunned the contamination of the
little prevaricsting institution re-
fcrred TO.

1t is easy to show that the undue
prominence given in a Presidential
year 10 the October elections is not
for the public interest. 1t will be a
great deal less easy TO induce the
politicians in the October States to
change the date of their elections.
How Pennsylvania was ever induced
to do it must always remain a mys-
terry. Concentrating the attention of
the whole country upon State in
October assures to its politicians
national prominence. and to its cam
paiga managers fair claim upon
the funds of the National Committee.
Ii is vastly easier to be of national
consequence in State whose cleo
ton may turn the national scales,
than 10 fail la with the general herd
a month later. IL would b. an ex.
eSedingly good thing ii oMo and
Indiana would hereafter vote, in
Presidential years at least, at the
same time with the other states
