WHY NOT ?-Since the successful en-
tertainment of Thursday evening, the
question has been asked, Why cannot
our own people get up an occasional ex-
hibition in aid of a fund to build the
much-needed school house ?" We be-
lieve they can. With proper encourage
ment and little iberality on the part of
citizens generally, entertainments could
be given here once a month, which would
net over 500 each, and in short time
enough money could be realized to build
a respectable school building, and this
without anyone feeling the expense bur
den. Let the Trustees take hold of the
matter, secure hall and fit it up comfort
ably for actors and auditors, and our word
for it, school house Will be built in a
year or two at most. Let the proceeds of
Thursdays entertainment form nest
egg" and by Christmas it can be added
to then the ball will be fairly in motion
and can be easily kept rolling.
NEW CLAIMs.-On Weaver Creek
Messrs Wallace & Cruthis are opening
claim in the point below the mouth OF

to some extent by Powell and Knight in
1860, by ground sluicing. As the boys
will put small "giant" " on the claim it
will doubtless yield we'll. Hughes Il Ed
dy are working new claim on Trinity
River opposite Garden Bar. They have
a channel with blue dirt, which we are
told prospects well. Bob got into the

Hayes, at his Thanksgiving dinner table,

THE RESULT TO BE KNOWN TODAY
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. ALI sorts OF
rumors are ailoat, but nothing reliable
has transpired as TO the result of the
canvass by the returning board. Gov
ernor Kellogg stated to-day that COM
pilation would be completed of the cleo
toral vote before Tuesday noon.
gHE SITUATION IL GENERAL.
Correspondence to the st. Louis Tmes.)
New ORLEANS, Dec. 1.-The feeling
here continues calm and patient. but
very watchful. To-day the Washington
artillery turned back to the state on a
requsition from Kellogg, presented by
the chief OF police, the arms equipments
and artillery used by them since their re-
organization. and which they had Dor
rowed from the state for purposes of
drill parades, etc. The Mitchell Rifles
and other city companies having state
arms, are expected To do the same. kel-
logg pretends that ii is his duty TO have
all state arms replaced in the arsenal by
the time he transfers his Office to his sue
cessor. There are grayer reasons be-
hind all this for such a step than those
alleged. He is like the conscience
stricken rogue that lin every bush sees
an officer The returning board it is
believed will promulgate the electoral
and gubernatorial vote next Tues day.
Returns from all the parishes are now in
and opened, the last having been handed
in Yesterday.
THE yoTt ~ RECEIVED
by the board, that is the vote returned
by the supervisors of registration, wApm
Gov. Wells considers the only source OF
correct returns, shows prioia farie nine
thousand majority for Tilden and over
eight thousand Tor Nichols. Five OF the
Republican electoral candidates, by be-

over 1000 votes, and this fatal oversight

orally Misunderstood IN nc fitst place,
under the constitution and by decisions
the supreme court has oriRinal iuris.lIc-
ton in disputed election cases. In the
next place the supreme court. by its late
decision ordering the board of canvassers
TO return the members from tdgeileld
and Laurcns. did not in any sense pass
upon the validity of their election. or at
tempt in any manner to intcffcrc With
the right of the houses TO Judge OF The
election and qualification of their own
members. All that the court did was TO
order the board to return the members
having a majority from these two dis
tricts, leaving the question as to the va
Iidity Of their election to be decided by
the bodies having jurisdiction. the legis-
lature of South Carolina.
THE CONSTITUTION SAYS:
The house shall consist of 1874 mem

stitutional number, and let the business
or otherwise of their election be passed
on by the only body having jurisdiction
SO far as the right OF the court to inter
fere in this case was concerned. it was
not even questioned when the ease
against the returning board was argued.
And, again. with reference to the action
OF the board in assuming to act judi
cially, with respect To state officers and
presidential electors. it was held that
the board was
DEBtRREp FROM EXERCISING JCDICIAL
POWERS,

Hayes electors. before the supreme court,
in which application is made for writ
OF quo warranto, will be argued on Tues
day. The foundation of the application
is that the REALTORS received the largest
number OF votes. The real intent is to
force the board OF canyassers to go back

statements OF precinct managers. in
which ease the Tiden electors claim they

TIE CASE Is An IMPORTANT ONE.
But its hearing being set for the day be-

it is doubtful il anything could be done,
even if the petition for quo warrauio
