GENERAL GRosvENoR, q leading
Ohio Republican, has been reporting
some conversations he had with Mr..
Hayes just before his Inauguration.
According to this gentleman the
trouble with Conkling is that Hayes
refused to accede to the New York
Senator'S demand that in making up
his Cabinet Senator Morton and all
his requests should be ignored.
Hayes was given plainly to under
stand that if he did mol comply with
this demand Of Conkling he must
expect the hostility of that gentle
man, and probably his vote against
him in the Electoral Commission.
But Hayes, according to his own
story, didn't scare as easily as Conk-
ling supposed he would; he would
rather never be President than to
commit himself to position hostile
to Morton, because, said Mr.. Hayes,
1never has the Republican outlook
been SO dark or gloomy in Ohio that
Mr.. Morton has pot come to our aid
and assistance, and with words of
cheer and comfort. He has always in
the darkest days been our relief and
our consider, and the man in our
party who would, for purely private
reasons, antagonize Mr.. Morton and
endeavor to injure his influence,
would be an migrate and unworthy
Of the confidence OF the Republican
party of the West" Conkling only
executed that part Of his threat
which was not dangerous to anybody
but himself; he failed to vote against
Hayes in the Electoral Commission,
but his hostility to the administra-
ton has been the greatest effort of
his life.

THE Democrats of Maine get to-
gether every year and nominate a
State ticket and then 60 into retire.
ment till the next convention time
comes around. They had their annu-
al meeting on Tuesday, made their
nominations and adopted platform
with as much formality and solem-
nifty as though triumph were inevi-
table. The resolutions are not re-
markable for anything but their adj
herence to "the principles of the ma
tional Democratic party as an
nounced for the last ten years." and
this is consolidating great many
dangerous acrobatic feats in one,
making a performance Of itself suffi-
Gent to appall all rival shows. II
there is any side of any public ques-
ton on which the Democratic party
has not been at some time during the
last ten years it is because no way
has been found to get there. But the
Maine Democrats probably know as
we'll as anybody that it doesn't make
much difference what they do say.

EVERY year the last days of the
Congressional session present the
same disgraceful scene of the two
houses wrangling over appropriations
and blindly hurryiug through i'm
portapt legislation which ought to
have been considered carefully and
acted upon discreetly months before.
The one duty Of Congress, which it
cannot evade, the first and often the
only duty it has to perform, is the
passage Of the regular appropriation
bills. These ought all to be present
ed to the House within the first
month of the session, and there is no
reason why they should not be dis
posed of within another month.
The rest Of the session could then
be devoted to buncombe and private
jobs could take their chances.

STATE NEWS.

Tuscarora has been invaded by
myriads of crickets.
The Eureka Sentinel mentions
probably rich strike in the deepest
level Of the Hoosac mine.
The Eureka Leader notes the alb
sence of the Shoshones from that Sec
ton, and suspects they have gone to
join the Bannocks.
The Eureka Sentinel learns that
the Hillside mine, in Bristol district,
gives promise of being good bullion
producer. One furnace is already
in operation.
By the breaking of the rope and
the falling of bucket of ore from
near the surface an Italian miner
named John Isola, aged AZ, was killed
in the Jones and Kinkead mine, at
Pyramid, the other day.
At the Winnie ranch, near Carson,
on Wednesday, Martin Little struck
Herbert Robinson with spade and
then shot him in the arm. The row
was about driving Mrs. Winnie's
cows. The Tribune believes the as
sault was without justification.
Austin Reveille: A prominent citi-
zen, noticing a group Of Indian wo-
men squatted on the ground playing
cards, pointed his finger at the gath
ering and remarked that the Indian
situation looked squawlly. He was
not killed this time, as it was his first
offense, and vas let off with repri-
mand.
The Silver State learns that Para
disc valley is being invaded by crick-
cts. The main body of them is about
six miles long and two miles wide.
The farmers have turned their hogs
against the enemy, and reinforce
ments are being brought from other
parts of the valley to where the crick-
cts are thickest.
Times Review: 1t is reported that
Patrick Mccartney, P. J. McNamee,
VIM. Johns and Geo. Eddy, who left
here about month ago for the north
ern country, were killed by Indians
at the mouth of the Bruneau. The
rumor appears to be generally cred
tied, although we were unable to
trace it to any authentic source.

THE SOUTHERN PLAN.

Appointment Republican, residing in
Savannah, Ga, is authority for the
statement that thousands of voters
in and around that city are regularly
prevented from casting their ballots
at elections. He says when the city
was in the hands of the Republicans
there were in the district five polling
places, at which q vote of about
eleven thousand was taken. As soon
as the Democrats obtained power
four of those polling places, situated
in the surrounding district, were
abolished, and only one retained for
the entire mass of voters-an accom-
mediation wholly insufficient. This
single polling-place was IN the court
house in Savannah, and the colored
voters Of the rural and suburban
parts had to come in from the SUR
rounding country -some Of them a
ulSt0uCc Va tcu anu OlOVOA A1OS-tO
vote. This made them late in arriv-
ing, and when they reached the
courthouse they found it filled and
surrounded by the white population
of the city, who effectually blocked
the way of the negroes to the polls.
This obstruction was so persistently
sustained that the rural voters were
entirely unable to approach the poll,
and at the close of the day the street
in front of the courthouse was filed
with a large crowd of voters who
had NOT been able to deposit their
votes.
BY this device most of the Repub-
lican votes were kept out Of the bal
lot-box, and a dishonest majority
was secured for the Democratic can
didates.

Five cents per barrel is full esti-

Latest Indian War News

SILVER CITY, June 27.-In the
recent attack of Captain Bernard's
command upon the hostile forces,
the force of the latter is, reported to
have been 800 warriors. The Indi-
ans were not aware of the presence
ofthe soldiers, and their stock was
unguarded. Bernard addressed his
troops, informing them that they
were close by the enemy and could
whip them. He charged them not
to retreat, as if they did they would
be shot, and they might as we'll die
by shots fired by the savages as by
their own men. j. The gallant SOL
diers went silently forward and at
tackled a savage force three times
greater. When within 500 yards of
the enemy the order was given to
charge. McGregor's company was
near by and they charged also. The
savages fled in dismay. Large num-
bers of them were killed. An en-
counter took place between Bear
Skin, Bannock chief, and Sergent
Richmond of McGregor's company.
The Sargent finally killed his man.
Between l and 2 O'Clock on the
morning of the Gath the host;les were
compelled to retreat. They were
pursued by Bernard ten miles. Gen.
eral Howard and Downey and
Miles subsequently, arrived on the
ground, also Bendire's company. All
are anxious for a fight. The body
of one soldier captured by the Indi-
ans was cut up and burned. The
Indian camp was destroyed by the
troops. Many hostiles were wounded.
Colonel Perry's command, as well
as all the other troops engaged, are
reported to have done we'll.
