NORTHLAND MAIL ROUTES.

Important to the People and Contractors.
Washington, Dec. 17.-By the pro-
visions of the recently passed post
route bill, mail service has been or
dered on the following routes from
Deadwood:
To Sheridan, Hayward City, Fort
Reno, Mouth of Tongue river, Sand
creek, Galena and Bozeman, Montana.
Persons interested in having service
placed on these routes, or on any others
heretofore established by Congress. but
not now served, should lose no time in
forwarding petitions or other evidence
to show the necessity or advisability of
the desired service, and they would do
well to bring pressures TO bear upon the
P. o. Department through their Con-
gressional representatives.

Chicago, Dec. 17.-Official informa-

this afternoon shows that the mob at
San Elizario consists Of about 300 citi-
zens of Ell Paso county, Texas; that
no Mexicans have crossed the river to
take part in the trouble; and that the
Mexican authorities have given positive
orders that none of their citizens
should cross. About 300 troops have
been ordered from posts in New Mexi-
co to the scene of the disturbances, to
aid the civil authorities. This with
drawal of troops leaves the Indian
frontiers exposed.
All officers of the army in position to
know anything about the existing trou-
bIes in Texas, or the views of either
government, are satisfied there is no
possible ground for warlike prepara-
tions.

OLD copper cents are being treated
in way calculated to arouse the in
dignation of those who venerate the
pennies of the papas. 1t is decided
that they have no rights as legal tender
that any postmaster or anybody else is
bound to respect. The remedy for
this irreverent condition of affairs is
obvious. The inhabitants of the Lake
Superior copper region should fall back
on their sovereign powers, frame a
constitution and State Government,
vest all their property in two copper
mine owners and elect them to the
Senate of the United States.

WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.


Discovery of an Ancient Mares Nest.
New York, Dec. 1.-THE Herald's
Washington special says: The sub-com-
mittee of the House Military Affairs
committee continued their researches
among the archives of the State De.
partment to-day, and discovered among
the other things, that in 1875 the United
States had very narrow escape from
war with Mexico. The committee be-
lieve there is evidence to show that it
was the deliberate purpose of the adj
minlstration of Grant, or at. least of
the President himself, to precipitate
trouble upon the border. The gunboat
Rio Bravo, the troops under Col. Pot
ter and the volunteer forces under Tex
an commanders, were to begin the
work. The latter force was to cross
the Rio Grande and burn certain prop
erty that was believed to be the head
quarters for Cortina's forces, the gun
boat and United States infantry were
to protect the Texan invaders. The
consul at Matamoras was duly informed
of the plan, and as Secretary Fish was
not party to this plan, he at once in
terposed his offices, and the commander
of the Rio Bravo was instructed not to
carry ont the details of the plan.

THE CHINESE PROBLEM
Assuming Shape in Washington.


Washington, Dec. 16.-D. o. Mills
called on the President and secretary
of State yesterday in regard to the Chi
nese problem in California. He claimed
that great deal of Misrepresentation
had been INDUCED in; that the many
reports of the bad conduct Of China
men were entirely unfounded; their
presence and labor are not injurious:
but on the contrary are great benefit
to the Pacific coast, ana that the United
States government is in duty bound to
see that they are protected in the en-
joyment of the rights guaranteed by
our treaty with China. Itappears that
he came here for the express purpose of
taking these argumentative representa-
tions. He left for New York in a few
hours afterwards.
Secretary Evarts. in view of the con-
fiicting statements made to him on
this subject, seemed inclined to send
for official information before recon-
mending any course of action for
adoption by the administration in re-
gard to any of the questions involved.
The matter is, however, very likely to
come up for further Cabinet discussion
sooner than Evarts contemplates.
The Attorney General will undOubt-
edly report that there is no precedent
for interference by the general govern
ment to suppress or prevent assaults
upon individual rights within State
limits unless such interposition and as
sistance be requested by the State au-
thorities. The question whether any
such action can be constitutionally
volunteered in order to enforce stipu-
lations has never before been directly
presented, but there seems to be no
doubt of decision in the negative, re-
gardless of the fact that the nation at
large would be morally liable for the
consequences which might ensue from
treaty infractions.

A practicable channel through the jet

William, who was engaged in the same
murder, to ten years, the jury fixing
the punishment in both cases. This
recalls an instance of an extraordinary
sentence being passed upon an aged
criminal by San Francisco Judge.
The convict was go years of age when
the court sentenced him to 80 years in

for shortening of theterm, whereupon
the judge relented somewhat and re-
duced the period to imprisonment for

SAM WANTS THAT SUGAR"

Our Government After Confederate Money.
Washington, Dec. 17.-For several
years the Government has considered
the feasibility of obtaining the money
and other property in Europe belong
ing to the Southern Confederacy at the
time of its downfall. Several agents
were sent to Europe to investigate and
report as to the amount of such proper
ty still standing in the name of the
Confederacy, but nothing definite was
ever accomplished.
During the closing months of Grants
administration the question of obtain
ing this property was seriously dis
cussed in the Cabinet, and the matter
assumed definite form in report SUBJ
mitted to the Cabinet by the then Sec
retary of the Treasury. 1t was inti-
mated that the value Of this property
would reach from ten to fifteen million
dollars and it was believed the United
States government could recover the
same. On account Of the approaching
change of administration the matter
was allowed to remain in statu quo.
The present administration have con-
sidered what is best to be done, and it
is understood that contracts will be en-
tered into with certain lawyers to COL
lect the money in the banks. and prop
erty belonging to the Confederacy. 1t
is also understood that under the terms
of the proposed contracts the lawyers
will be allowed fifty per cent. of the
amount collected.
