A RUsH.-The hands employed in the
STATESMAN office have been overworked
this week. They commenced the week with
seven jobs waiting attention. and notwith.
standing We have been working day and
night, job work has come in faster than our
best hands and fastest job press could turn
it out. As Z matter of course, a part of this
rush Of job work is due to the general ac-
tivity in trade, but much of it is due our
superior facilities for turning ont jobs. 1t
may be news to very many, but it is none
the less true that We run the largest stock
of paper, printing material, etc, of any print
ing office Oh the coast outside of San Fran.
cisco, and hence our facilities for filling or
ders are in advance of others in the same
line of business The stock of paper, cards,
etc, in the Office will invoice fully $1,000.
Then, again, we have all the latest and most
improved machinery. In printing as in all
other lines OF business, it is capital that tells,
and with bank account in our favor We are
always able to keep up with the demands of
our constantly growing trade With the
coming week we will have another hand in
the office, and with his aid and the faithful
services of Mr. Guard WashbuTne, who has
stuck to his post like hero, we hope to be
able to meet all the demands of our friends
and patrons.

4 SoUATTER Row A week or two
since the STATESMAN adverted to the fact
that bad feeling prevailed in Columbia
county, growing out of the acts of certain
men known as land jumpers" At the
time it was stated that both sides were
armed, and hostilities liable to break out
at any time. A young man named James
Sparks, living at Dayton, was prominent
as a Jumper" and the adverse party
had dug grave and notified Sparks that
it was for his use. Early in the week
Sparks had difficulty with settler nam
ed Wright, living at MILESTONE Hollow.
On Wednesday Wright and number of
settler friends rode into Dayton. There
the quarrel between Sparks and Wright
was renewed, when arms were drawn on
both sides Firing became general, and
in the row Wright was shot in the leg in
such MANNER rs to necessitate aanputa-
ton. Sparks is reported to have been
shot twice, once in the face, but whether
dangerous was not known at the time our
informant left. This alteration OCCASION
ed much i'll feeling, and another row is
liable to break out at any time Settlers
have been careless in filing on their land,
and now that land has become valuable
the Jumper" take advantage of these
defects. 1t is lamentable state Of affairs,
but We trust that quiet will soon be re-
stored.

"THE COMING KINGDo NJ" Is the title
Of a pamphlet by Dr. WATSON #. Quincy,
OF this city. 1t is mainly compiled from
texts in the Old ami New Testaments,
all tending to prove that Christ will set
up his kingdom on earth. The book
makes quito a handsome phaInplet Of
eighty-four large octave pages and will
form quite a valuable accession to any
religious library. We recommend the
work TO all who feel interested in the
subject. 1t is well written, and while ii
aims to illustrate the points of the texts,
interferes in nowise with the views OF
any denomination. 1t is an interesting
work and will amply repay perusal
and as an aid to those who lack the time
to devote to searching the scriptures, i
of far more value than any work we hay
seen on the subject. Price 80 cents.

THE unpopularity of Mr.. Hayes adj
mimstration with the Republican party
leaders, is something very remarkable.
In Pennsylvania it is said no candidate
who endorses Hayes can be elected to
any office by the Radical party, and to such
IN extent is it divided that resolution
endorsing Hayes in convention could
not be carried. This would seem to make
the way open for the election of Demo
Gratis in most of the local as well as the

WIFE MURDERS seem to be on the in
crease in numbers, while the attending
circumstances are in nowise less horrible.
That Of Armstrong in our own county,
some years ago, was followed by the trial
and conviction Of Slater, at EaSton, Md;
and on Friday the news that Clemmens
Lloyd, in Chester, Pa, workman at
Roach's ship yard, had murderously shot
and killed his wife, had hardly died upon
the air until the report was followed by
the news of the horrible, bloody and
sickening killing ef Mrs. Thomas, by her
husband, William Thomas, workman
at the Harlan & Hollingsworth Com
pany's yard. In both cases the men were
under the influence of liquor; and at.
tempted suicide and in both cases We're
murderers would have committed the
terrible crimes had they not been under
the influence of strong drink. But the
presumption is they would not; or they
would have delayed still longer the awfu
work, and the occasion for it might have
passed, and thus the men and their child
rem been saved from the awful conse
quences' and the community the terrible
shock. Whether hard drink was tn,
actual cause or not nine-tenths of tn,
people will believe it and the warnin,
to avoid drunkenness comes from il will
apoweriul force. Whatever the primar,
cause, these deeds were not performe,
until whiskey had added frenzy to tn
crazed immaginations of the men. IL /
perhaps true that bad wives make ba,
husbands; but ii is more clearly sllscept
BILE of proof that drunken husbands tur
good wives into irritable and ill-tempe
ed women, as well as make bad wiv,
worse than they were. Liquor alwa,
adds evils where it is taken to sett
difficulties; and it should therefore |
avoided for the very fear that 1t ms
stimulate until control of passion is 10,
this is an established fact admitted by
many who have tried to excuse theI
selves for crime on the plea of drunke
ness, Notwithstanding they know tl
laws permit no excuse to be entered
eXtenuation for crimes committed wht
under the influence of liquor.
