WEATHER.-We have been lately
in the habit of abusing the clerk OF
the weather, but heneeforth TO him
we "swear eternal allegiance" He
is the most prolific generator of in
teresting items imaginable. First
we chronicle the fact that 1.-THE
silvery moon lightens the heavens
then the bright faced luna is
bliudfoided with threatening
clouds" 1.-THE sun rose this morning
with a smile so warm and cheerful
that all nature seemed invigorated;
1.-The weather is muchly mixed to-
lay" etc. But yesterday was the
worst Of all; it blew hard most of
the day, hailed and showed alter
nately and was generally one of the
worst of a bad season. As we go
to press quite severe snow storm
is prevailing. This appears to be
another edition of winter cold and
cruel. ..

The MINERS LUNCH CAMS au
institution in itself, and one that
seems peculiar to this country, for
although We have seen much of
mining life, still there has never
come under our observation place
where the miners were so bounti-
fully supplied with the necessaries,
even luxuries of life, as here. In
any of our prominent boarding
houses one may see from fifty to
two hundred lunch cans, and to
keep an account Of them to renem-
Der the person to whom each be-
longs, his tastes aud desires regard
ing his lunch, requires more than
IN ordinary memory. In fact, where
a large number of mlaers are board
ing it is necessary to employ one
person, whose business it is TO al
tend particularly to that depart
ment OF course their lunches differ
almost as much as their tasks. but
the average lunch consists OF about
four pieces of bread (white or
brown, nicely battered. two differ
ent kinds Of cake. col roast, corn
or boiled beef. or if Preferred, a
beefsteak, piece of ham, three
boiled eggs lizard or soft as desil ed

CHINESE GAMBLERs.-On Satur.
day morning tho thilteen China
gamblers, who were arrested on Fri.
day evening for playing the bank
ing game of "fan. tam without a
license, had hearing before Justice
Gould, Mr.. John Cronin appearing
Tor the defense and the District At
'orney for the prosecution. Eleven
OF the prisoners were acquitted, il
Delng proved that they were merely
lockers on in Vienna" and not in
any way interested in tho game. The
other two, Jack Lee aud All Tong,
were held to appear before the Grand
Jury on $1,000 bonds each. in default
OF which they were sent to the
county Jail. In connection with
this case 1t Is but proper to add thai
as some persons have seen fit to
condemn the action of the officers in
tnls matter, we deem 1t but justice
70 say every step taken by them was
foiiy justified by law and they but
performed their duties TO have
done otherwise they would have
laid themselves open to comment.
We believe Constable Miller and
officer Noble to be upright men and
faithful, efficient officers, and their
steps on this occasion proving them
the right men in the right place.

his mining report of the Vivian

well thinks nothing of the sort, as
he informed us previous to his de-
parture for San Francisco, that his
business was to secure additional
machinery, deeming such absolute

1t will consist of an eight-inrh

work out no practical or salutary reform. Reform is necessary
 even in the higher grades of pub lie service. President, Vice Pres ident, Judges, Senators. Repre- sentatives, Cabinet officers these and all others in authority are the peoples servants. Their offices are not a private perquisite they are a public trust. When the annals of this Republic show disgrace and censure of a Vlce- President; a late Speaker of the House of Representatives mar keting his rulings as presiding officer; three Senators proiiting by their votes as law makers: five Chairmcn of the leading Commit
 tees of the late House of Repre- sentatives exposed in jobbery; q late Secretary of the Treasury forcing balances in the public accounts; late Attorney General misappropriating public funds; q Secretary of the Navy enriched and enriching his friends by a percentage levied off the profits of contractors with his depart ment; an ambassador to England censured in dishonorable spec ulation; the Presidents private secretary barely escaping conyic- tion upon trial for guilty compile ity in frauds upon the revenue; a Secretary of War impeached for high crimes and mlsdemeanors-- the demonstration is complete that the first step in reform must be the peoples choice of honest men from another party, lest the dis ease of one political organization infect the body polite, and lest, by making no change of men or parties, we get no change oi measures and no real reform.
