Pancake Coal Mine.

A gentleman lust In from the Pancake
oompany's coal mine informs as that
two strata OF coal have recently been
struck In the new double shaft that the
company have been for several months
past engaged In sinking. which is now
down a depth Of 225 feet. The first
stratum was struck ut o depth OF 100
feet, and Ia fifteen inches In width. Tho
second was struck at q depth Of 200 feet,
and IL three and = half feet In width; In
the deepest stratum the coal 10 Of o very
superior quality. After going through
the two strata Of coal q short distance q
considerable body OF water was struck,
which will require . little delay In put
ting In 6 pump, and will also incur the
time and expense OF getting a boiler OF
larger capacity than the u now In use.
This We learn IL to DO done immedi.
ately. Az soon 40 work can DO re-
sumed. proper levels will DO run to eI.
tract the veins OF coal that have recently
been struck. and tho sinking OF tho
main shaft will also be continued to
striko other strata that arc known to
exist at q greater depth. Those at oil
familiar with the workings OF this mino
will remember that o large amount OF
work has been dono that was impracti-
cal, but not entirely thrown away. a.,
while being done. several veins Of coal
were discovered and their courses ascer.
tanned. The present company being In
possession OF these facts, concluded to
sink q double shaft aud put up extensive
hoisting works, md located the new
shaft with q view to cut the veins TINT
had been developed In the old workings,
which they have succeeded most admi.
rably In doing. The recent strikes have
fully developed a continuous series OF
coal veins, which will DO largely worked
during tho coming summer. We are
also informed that II Ia the intention Of
tho company to erect extensive works
at Eureka for the manufacture OF coke,
n DO used by the numerous smelling
furnaces OF that place. There Is little
doubt but coke can DO manufactured
there cheaper than II can DO freighted
from the East. and allow the company a
fair profit for their coal and its manuiac.
ture. II IL now an established fact that
we have extensive coal beds In White
Pine county, which will prove quite as
remunsraiive ~ amy silver mines in the
State. We congratulate the company on
their new fnd.-W hik Pine Nsrs, March

zanRisxIE AND THE PRESS

Tho Lyon county Times Published IN
item q day or two since. saying that the
GoLD HLL NEws reelected rather hanh-
iy on DR.. Zabriskis for his remarks in
tho Central Committee. TO the effect that
the newspapers advocating the calling
Of q convention were influenced by the
mercsnary desire 70 get the extra advsr-
Using consequent upon such q course.
The Nevada STATE Journal OF this morn
ing replies to the Times. snbstaniiaiins
what we had to say about 1t and fully
justifyine Is in our remarks. II seems
that the proprietor Of the Times was at
first also Of the same opinion relative to
the scurrilous remarks Of Zabriskie.
The Stale Journal says that We were mot
q particle too harsh In our rrply re-
ssnting tho uncalled-for insult to the
press, and proceeds rs follows: Ellis
remarks were entirely unealled for and
unjust. They in no wise referred to as.
but We denied his imputations on account
Of the NKws and other papen which saw
it to advocate a convention. and the
proprietor Of tho Times remarked to us
aitsrwari that We did perfectly right.
We thought 30 too"
Il will bs recollscted that Mr.. Pown-
ing. editor Of the Journal, was the only
member OF the press belonging to the

arose in reply to DR.. Zabriskis. and on

u insult. For his outspoisn. prompt
and manly defense Mr.. Powuing Ia dss-

who was Mayor Of this city during part
OF the time that Supervisor OF internal
Revenue Colouel Ferdinand Meyer was
q member OF the Board OF Police Com
m~issioners, has written o letter TO that
gentleman, In which he refers to the
letter Of Ex-Governor McClurg to Presi.

ments therein. He says he had occasion
to examine certain parties regarding
matters relating to Colonel Meyer, and
these parties admitted TO him under oath
that they had been paid to sign tho pa
pers which were sent to Governor Nc.
Clurg affecting Meyers character and
that they knew nothing a to the truth
OF the allegations contained In those pa
pers. Mr.. Cole further says he vas
then convinced that these documents
bad been prepared under the direction
OF the enemies Of Meyer and by some OF
the basest characters in the city, TO de-
stroy an efficient and capable officer
whose energy Was injurious to their in
terest. Cole also states that IL these
papers was the class Of evidence Gov

was grossly imposed upon aud q merito-
rious officer was removed without proper

Under this treaty we have an acceptable
State government, which must continue
until another executive is elected by the
people. 1t can not be overthrown by a
mob to crafty personal ambition, and to
advise such ali attempt is to give per-
nicious counsel. If reforms are needed,
the Legislature is competent to enact re-
form laws. The Governor is pledged to
second the Legislature in all efforts made
for the best interests of the State.
There is no objection to protests or pc
titions made by any number of men to
the Congress of the United States. The
right of petition is an inherent American
privilege Postmasters have been ap-
pointed under its influence, and small
offices gained. But there is objection to
calling the individual signers of any pc
tition, or the selected actors of meeting
called to overthrow State government,
"the people," Congress will listen to the
voices of our Legislature and our Congress-
men, and if the Louisiana sore is ever
opened, Congress will look to those ser
wants of the people for instruction. Their
functions can not be usurped by indiyid-
uals assembled in mass meeting, even
though the usurpers call themselves a
convention of the Democratic party Of
Louisiana, and men must be bad men who
would at this time attempt to undo all
that has been done in the interests Of
peace by advocating the violation of
solemn compacts made by representa-
tives of the State, and counselling another
uprising, with the forlorn hope of disor-
ganizing the present legally constituted
State government and installing pretend
ers in office

the message. The cause of reform has
nothing now to apprehend except pro-

To any such trick we are opposed. The

the colored Republican voters depends on

TWICE IN JARDY.

The recpening of theses against four
mem bers of the House Representatives
by vote Of that bodtter those cases
had been ehectually dosed OF by the
same body at previouession does not
argue a devotion to JUS. AT the extra
session committee ohree, OF whom
Mr.. Lowell was chairmsnd E. E. Kidd
and John Young nbers, was ap-
pointed to consider thearges made at
first in a circular distilled among the
members. A free andr Investigation
was had, the evidence sfully examined
and the report was adol. A motion to
reconsider the vote waabled. A more
complete verdict of acttal is not pos
sible for the House tive. These re-
marks of course do apply to the
charges against the fl members who
were not before that amittee. They
are entitled to an inigation Of the
causes that led the Ahey General to
file informations againsem.
There seems to haven some person.
atty in this action OF House yester-
day. The motion caurom leader OF
the Democratic side. ,se charged are
all Republicans. Theairman of the
committee will undoraly be a DEM
ocrat, and probably Majority of the
members of the comre will also be
Democrats. There we the strongest
possible inducement this committee
to report against themembers, who
are opposed to thempolitics. Their
removal from the I'd will give the
Democratic side twods vote.
For those memberso have already
been tried on these ges, and are yet
to appear before the IS, there is sufi-
cient ground to regat as personal
persecution for a poll object. After
a justification by the be of which they
are members, why I'D that House
consider the action of Attorney Gen
eral, without the iJention of the
grand jury, sufficient On for criticising
their own action? I'd the require
ments of justice be ted by allowing
the court to proceeGording to law?
After the court has coted, if the court,
differing from the coffee, should find
conviction possible, amittee of inves-
tigation would not liable to the sus-
picion that it was foplitical purpose.
The same reasoning properly apply,
though Invested of ttgument of pre-
vious investigation, the other four
members. 1t will d harm to allow |
their cases to be condl by the Attor-
ney General, who see, be willing, and
is certainly able, to Get them without
