O1SdLL, the brother of Ulyis is ihmoss
trouble. He is now charged with cor
spiracy to cheat and defraud the people
Of Bucks county, Pennsylvania. The way
of the transgressor is hard, and often be-
yond human endurance. Brother Orvil
has not only transgrsssed dealing in post
tradsrshils~ and other nice little plums,
but this time he in connection with Others
is charged with conspiracy to defraud, and
the Sheriff of Bucks county has now in
his hands writ for his arrest. Just as
he was about to step down and out Of the
hands Of the Committee at Washington,
there is a demand for Brother Orvile at
Bristol. This great post trader is finding
Jordan hard road to travel.

WHAT THEY WANT.

The irrepressible Brick" Palmer
writes us from Paradise Valley giving
his views and those of others on the
Presidential candidates aud platform.
He says Hendricks is their first choice
for President, though Tilden or any
other statesman of unbemished repu-
tation will satisfy the Democrats Of
Paradise Valley. They want a plat
form strongly opposed to Chinese i'm
migration and in favor of abrogating the
Burlingame treaty; principles which,
when carried into effect by legislation,
will suppress the Asiatic lido, which
threatens to overwhelm, not only the
Pacific coast, but the whole country.
g Brick wants to impress the dele
CATION from this State to the st. Louis
Convention with the importance Of
this question, and in that he is right.
The platform adopted by the Carson
Convention, which elected these delega-
ties, called for a remedy for the Chinese
evil, and instructed them to cooperate
with the delegates from other Pacific
States in bringing it properly before
the National Convention, To the peo-
pie of this coast it is of much greater
importance than the financial question,
and while the Democratic party is IN
no sense responsible for the treaty
which accords to Chinese all the rights
and privileges of the most favored
nations, it devo.ves upon that party, in
view of its success i n the ensuing Presi-
Dental election, to proclaim to the
world in npmistakeable terms its inten-
ton to abrogate it, and prevent the
country from being oyerrun with
coolies.

The Democratic State Convention

b. Myres, Secretary The Committee
on credentials made their report and
moved that the Convention proceed to
elect four delegates at large to the St
Louis Convention. The delegates were
chosen by acclamation. The delegates
from Congressional Districts were then
chosen, after which the Convention
listened to report of Committee on
Resolutions. Both a majority and
minority report was made, the point Of
difference being the financial question.
After much objection By soft money
men, the majority report was accepted
by very large majority. The finan-
cial resolution declared. after leading
details, to Legislators; ave affirm
that hard money is the only money ac-
cording to Democratic tradition. recog-
nized under the Constitution. Dur
ing the the debate on the currency
question, Mark ID. Wilder--a greenback
man--made "a speech IN which he said:
Pass your hard money resolutions,
and nominate Tilden--." A sudden
shout arose when Tilden's name was
mentioned. Some of the delegates
arising to their feet and calling for
cheers, which We're given, and the
the widest enthusiasm prevailed. OF

CHICAGO, May %. 1876.
Hon. d. w. Mum was acquitted to-
day in the United States Circuit Court.
This was generally anticipated by
NUNS friends, who have from the
first felt confident of his innocence.
The whole question of the guilt or in
nocence turned on the credibiity of
Jake RHEIMS testimony. aud it seems
the jury does not credit it. Mr.. Mum
has yet to be tried at both Milwaukee
and ST. Louis. and the Government
attorneys claim that the case is against
him at both places.
