the pardon was a p~rearranged affair il
consideration OF certain political sup
port in Lincoln county was also cir
culated to q limited extent. We can
not vouch for the correctness Of thes'
vague rumors, but we do know tina
they were uttered in the eastern part o
tho State.
Shortly after regaining his freedom
Harrington murdered one Sullivan II
Virginia City. He wss tried and sen
fenced to he hanged, but the Supreme
Court came to his rescue on q yer,
thin technically and said he must hav'
another chance, in the shape of a new
trial. The case came up again las
Wednesday In the District Court o
Storey county and was continued TO-
the term. Ex-Congressman Wood
burn appeared for the defendant, AND
on his motion the continuance wa.
granted. The Enterprise abiding Il
the case says:
The proceedings in this case have
been most unfortunate for every ont
except Harrington, and 1t Is now gen
erxlly conceded that his neck is safe.
e ,uld such a result have been foreseen
ut the time of the murder the county
would have been saved the expense oil
even = single trial, and would have in

JEwIsH RESENTMENT.
The jewish movement against the
house Of A. T. Stewart & Co. seems to
be gathering strength. We don't
blame these people for resenting the
insult heaped upon them as a class
by Judge Hilton. Seligman was not
excluded from the Grand Union be-
of his manners, but because he
was Q Jew. All Jews are denied the
privileges Of the Grand Union this
season. Forty-six firms, comprising
the best houses ia Cincinnati, have
united in signing the following:
We, the undersigned. having noticed
with a deep sense Of indignation the
uncalled for and unjust discrimination
made against Israelites as a class by
Judge Hilton, of New York, in exclud.
ing them Is guests from his hotel at
Saratoga, protest against this unwar
rantable action as . gross outrage on
our rights, an insult to modern civili-
cation and q stigma on Republican in
stitutions. Considering the unani-
nous stand taken by the press, as the
representative Of public opinion, we
are content, as citizens, to leave our
cause, "a such, in the hands Of the
American people. As business men,
however, we deem 1t due TO our self-res-
pect, and thereby declare and pledge
ourselves, henceforth, to entertain no
relations whatever with the house of A.

DESPERATE fighting on the Danube
has been reported for several days.
The Russians, however, have been
successful in landing q large share Of
their forces on the south bank of the
river. The Danube constituted the
first line of the Turkish defense.
They will now fall back to the Balkan
range Of mountains, through which
the passes are tortuous and difficult.
It Is here that the grand battles OF the
campaign are most likely to take
place. The Turks will, Of course, con-
test every inch of the ground, and it is
not unlikely that there will be some
pretty lively diminishing before the
mountain range is reached. The dis
ssnce approximates eighty miles; so
Il may be several weeks, and posi-
bly, months, tefore decisive engage
ments occur.
TIE Republicans of Nevada county,
California, Sargent's home, held their
nominating conventions on Tuesday

usually impartial, says the ticket is g
weak one. Resolutions were adopted
heartily endorsing the Administration
of President Hayes, but not q word
was said in praise Of Senator Sargent
The candidates for the Legislature
however, are all Sargent men.
The Mail predicts the biggest kind
Of . row pretty soon. Kate Field. In
describing Mrs. Grants dress at Duke
Pisrrepont's ball, says the lady were 9
canary-colored silk. Olive Logan, in
her report, sttires the same lady, or
the same occasion, In claret-colored
velvet. and the next thing to listen fol
will be two female screeches above the
din Of which will probably come the
information that neither Kate mol
Olive we're at the ball, and then won
they hate each other.
