A SINGULAR STATE OF AFFAIRS.

We have been reading the tele'
graphic statement Of the case OF Drex-
Ter -. the Mexican Gold aud Silver
Mining Company as it stands under
the rulings Of Judge Mckee of San
Francisco. There are some singular
conditions connected with the case.
The mine whose control Is thus being
wrancled over, is within this State. 1t
would seem that if any State courts
should have jurisdiction of its man
acement it should be the State courts
OF Nevada. But the title to the prop
erty itself does not lie in the State OF
Nevada, nor yet in the Mexican Min
ing Company; but in the United
States, which has never parted with
its patent to the same. But neverthe-
less, the State Courts in California sit
with calm and serene composure to
determine by whom this United States
pxoperty shall be worked. 1t is as if
the owners of coal mines and oil wells
In Pennsylvania should come TO Nc
vada for their lawing. Doubtless the
California Courts have the Jurisdiction
they so calmly assume; but it is a.little
remarkable that they should have it.
There is something preposterous in
course Of law practice and judicature
which determines matters referring to
the unprotected title Of a piece Of land
ed property in one State under the
code Of procedure Of another-as in
this instance. Indeed, it is just such
cases as these which give color Of JUS
LITIGATION to the movement lately made
in our Legislature, to compel mining
companies doing business in this State
to remove their offices within our bor-

The telegraphic dispatches are nov

press, but Chandler has proven equal to
the emergency and is not ashamed Of
any message he sent during the cam
paisu. The following dispatch was
signed by Chandler:

supervision of all the officials receiving

votes Of every locality.
The following is another from the
same hand:
New York, Nov. 1O.-Gen. Martin.
Tallahassee: We are absolutely certain
of 1876 votes for Hayes, if your State Is
safe, and Tilden is sure Of the rest. Can
you certainly defea: all Democratic at
tempts, by fraud, false counting or
bribery, to capture ii? Answer when
sure. (Siened) z. CHANDLER.
The following is the dispatch sent to
George C. Goriam, at San Francisco:
If Oregon goes Republican use the
utmost diligence to watch and get in and
have announced the vote from every To-
cality. The Democrats will press
Grover, and hence the importance of no
delay in establishing the result. You had
better SO to Oregon.
The following dispatch was also sent
to Gorham:
The Democrats are getting desperate.
They will stop at nothing to wrest vic
tory from US. 1t is important that you
should so at once to Oregon.
The following was sent to Attorney
General Willsams:
Washington, Nov. S.-OreSon is re-
ported Republican and will elect Hayes.
Telegraph several citizens of integrity
in Oregon to watch and get in and have
announced the vote from every locality.
We have telegraphed Mitchell. The
Democrats will press Grover, hence the
importance of no delay in establishing
the report.
Packard in New Orleans applied to
General Anger for assistance to reinstate
the Supreme Court in their bailding. and
also for other purposes not specified.
Anger refused his request, saying that
his instructions were only to keep the
peace in case of an outbreak. Grant
approved the action of Anger as stated.
1t is said that the committees Of the
two Houses to arrange plan for count
ing the electoral vote and for verifying
the same have finally agreed upon re-
port. A tribunal of arbitration is pro-
posed, and it is to consist of the first five !
Judges of the Supreme Court, to be
elected in the order of their service on
the bench. To this tribunal is to be re-
ferred all matters in dispute. and their
decision is to be acted upon by both
Houses. If both the bodies do not vote
to reject it then it is to remain; but if
both Houses vote to reverse the decision
of the tribunal, then the return involved
is not to be counted.

When the police opened a dog war,
some months ago, certain citizens
guarded their CANNES with shot-guns,
and swore that if the officers shot their
dogs they would shoot the officers.
Those dogs yet live, and are not licen-
sed. The marshal declares war on
dogs, in this issue, but we fear that he
will not prosecute it any farther than
he did before. The man who would
threaten an officer when he is perform
ing his sworn duty should be sent to the
penitentiary, and the man who shoots
an officer for killing an unlicensed dog
should be hung to the nearest telegraph
pole. These are our sentiments. Let
the dog war go on, and compel the
licensing of every dog in the city.

They don't allow saloons or gambling
houses in Greeley, but to supply a slim
ulant and feed the innate or latent de-
sire for gambling which exists in every
human breast, they fill a quart bottle
with corn grains (instead of the juice)
and then guess at the number Of kerr
nels in the bottle. A merchant recent
ly got up one of these guessing bottles
and allowed every person who purchas-
ed n dollars worth Of tea to have a
gness. The n who came the closest to
guessing the number of kernels was to
receive a 500 gold piece. The last
number of the Tribune gives the result
as follows:
The tea-guessing business came off
on Monday at Nichols store. The
quart bottle of corn was found to hold
2,6I5 kernels, and as three guessed ex-
actlythese figures, the $40 in gold was
divided among them.

A Hilliard Mystery.


The billiard correspondent of the
Evanston Age says "There is consid-
cradle talk in the village over the re-
ported discovery Of a concealed dug-out,
containing large quantityofgoods. The
location of the cache is not generally
known, but that something has been
found is certain. From the numerous
articles brought in, it would seem that
the place was a rendezvous of a band of
robbers, and that it has been deserted
for eight or ten years, is evident from
the moulded and rotten condition of
the things. 1t is said that there is a
large quantity of whiskey. The place
was found by Tom Murphy and Ben
Mccall while on a hunting tour. W.
are promised full particulars in a few
days." * u1IF

A woman named Anna Fergusoa,
alias Mcdonald, and known among the
hoodlums as one-armed Ann, was
found dead in her bed, in a little house
on Themes street, Sunday morning,
under what seemed to be suspicious
circumstances. A coroner's jury in
~vestigated the case, but could not find
that any specific crihae had been COM
mitted, although most horrible develop
ments were made. The story is too
disgusting for recital.
The verdict of the jury was that the
woman came to her death by alcoholic
and opiate poisoning, and q male brute
who was arrested on suspicion Of guilt,
wa released. The body was inferred
yesterday morning.

personal PARAGRAPHS.

Luke Voorhees,, Esq, went down to
Sidney on Sunday afternoon. He will
return to-day or tomorrow.
Mr.. W. B. Vickers returned to Den
e Monday. morning. He had not
been in Cheyenne before for three years,
and was much surprised at the progress
the city has made in that time.
Col. T. H. Stanton received orders
on Sunday from Gen. Crook, directing
him to report at once at Camp Robin
son. lie therefore left here yesterday
morning for Fort Laramie, where he
will join Gen. Crook, proceeding thence
to Camp Robinson.
W. E. Wheeler, Esq, of the Evans
ton Age, came in from the west yes
terday, and will return to-day. He left
his boot jack at home. With regard to
the report that he has recently welded
a Georgia h%eiress, Wheeler says lie de-
MES the allegation and defies the alle-
gator.
Drs. Adams and Cummings, of the
Chicago Medical Institute, are In the
city, and are stopping at the Metro
politan hotel, for a few days only.
These gentlemen make a speciality Of
chronic and special diseases, and all
operations on the eye, as well as all
kinds Of surgical deformities. DR..
Adams is a correspondent of Chicago
papers. Physicians of the city are cor
daily invited to call and see these
gentlemen while in the city.
Mr.. A. NJ. Hager, who has been a
railroad conductor 70 long that he
thinks he must have been born with u
punch in his hand, and who enjoys the
confidence Of his employers and the es-
TEEN OF every passenger who even trav-
eled with him, arrived here on Sunday
last, and left Monday morning for the
Black Hills. Ed. Merrill says Hager is
one of Natures noblemen, and this
must be true If Ed. says so, for he is
like Washington-he cannot tell a lie.

One Of The Twin Relies.

The government has nop n fitting
opportunity to blot out the foul plague
of Mormenism, without giving color to
the charge of religious persecution.
There is no justification for the perpetu-
alton of polygamy a year longer. If
Mormonism is ever to be blotted ont of
existence, now is the time. 1t is one
Of the twin relics" of b%arbarism, which
its adhererts may attempt to uphold
under the example of the scriptural
patriarchs, but cannot vindicate under
any law human or divine. Grimes,
innumerable, b. been perpetrated in
its name and for its behoof. Treachery
has accompanied murder and robbery,
and defiance to human laws has been
added to blasphemy. 1t is absurd to
pretend that John d. Lee was the only
Mormon responsible for the Mountain
Meadows massacre, albeit he was shot
TO death by officers selected for the exc
cution of the law. He had a large
body of accomplices on the ground and
in Salt Lake City, who urged and or
dered him to the bloody crime. Lee
maintained tn his last breath that he
was the pliable tool of the Mormon
leaders, and the hundreds of stories
that have been related in the last
twenty years concerning the massacre
have in various ways and degrees con-
firmed his assertion. Ills accomplices
have been cunning enough to elude
detection, and it is no strtch of credulity
that they counseled and urged the pros
ecution Of Lee, in the belief that there
by they could hide their WI participa-
ton in the crime and placate the officers
Of the law. So far as they can be iden-
titled and their crime proved they
should suffer the penalty that Lee
faced, The presumption Of Brigham
Young's guilt is so strong that he
ought to be Immediately indicted. This
can be easily compassed in the face of
the fact that this presumption does not
rest merely on Lees confession, but on
the nature and constitution of the
Mormon hierarchy and the position of
Young as its dominant, despotic head.
Another crime has come to light in
the publication of an order dated April
10, 1858. The order refers to eighty
Transfers who followed the United
States army across the plains in that
year. Their fate has never been salts
factorily accounted for. The original
Of the order with three afidavits au-
thenticating it was found among the
papers of the late John Titus, of Ari-
coma, formerly chief Justice of Utau.
1t was issued '.by order of Gen. Daniel
H.. Wells" and reads:
"The officer in command of the escort
is hereby ordered to see that every man
is well prepared with ammunition, and
to have it ready at the time you see
these teamsters a hundred miles from
the settlement. President Young adj
vises that they should be all killed, to
prevent them returning TO Bridger to
join our enemies. Every precaution
should be taken, and see that not one
escapes. Secrecy is required"
Judge Titus never doubted the gen.
~uineness of the paper.
