Eotr,i GoLD HILL News I noticed
your article on MIR. Mackay's liberality.
and was pleased to 0 that no jealous
sentiment oozsd out. AZ Ia too often the
case under such circumstances. Now.
what I have feared might be annoying
to Mr.. Mackay. Is that Nevadans might
think he should have contributed all to
Nevada, and lot California 90. but In
this I am glad to see I am greatly mis-
taken. To cover all arguments which
may be brought forth. I will say that
Nevada will be fully represented. and I
think better than Il you had undertaken

Tardy Justice.

Hon. O. Jacobs has introduced
a bill in Congress to review the
cause of the removal of Major
G. o. Haller from the army, in
the early part of the war. Upon
the report of some irresponsible
person of words said to be used
by Major Haller at a dinner
table, Mr.. Stanton, then Secre-
tary Of War, arbitrarily struck
his name from the army roll,
without notice or investigation,
and though positively denying
the charge upon which he was
removed, and repeatedly asking
for trial, no hearing has ever
been granted him from that time
to the present, and for fifteen
years he has been forced to rest
under the imputation of having
been removed from the army
for cause, represented as disloy-
atty to the Government. No
ukase of the Emperor Of Russia
could have been more tyranlcal
or unjust. Now, after these
long years of unmerited odium
upon a faithful citizen and officer
it is time that some measures
should be taken for his vindica-
tion. Had Mr.. Stanton been
Secretary Of War when Jeffer-
SON c. Davis was in command
of Alaska, he, too, would have
been stricken from the army
roll. Charges were preferred
against him in the most specific
form, and the Secretary of War
was about to take action IN the
matter, when it turned out that
the man making the charges
was lunatic. The same man il
now in the Oregon Insane Asy'
lum. The charges against Major
Haller were no better supported

The Henryville mine says the
Coos Bay Ne,cs, was shut down
on the 18th inst, the shaft is
$50 feet deep and a hole bored
in the bottom of it is 125 feet,
thus prospecting to the depth
of SIS feet from the surface.
Several veins of coal have been
cut, but none thick enough to
justify working, with coal at
present prices in San Francisco,
and with SO many places where
coal can be mined at so much
less expense. Henryville has
been a dear experiment for San
Francisco capitalists, they hav-
ing discovered, with an expen-
diture of about a quarter of a
million, what every practical
man on the bay predicted from
the beginning.

Party Journals.

Party Journals.
We often hear certain news
papers spoken of as "Republi-
can organs" or democratic or
gans," when the said papers
never devote a sentence to the
discussion of political principles
or measures, and no one can dis
cover from them what the line
Of distinction is between the
two political parties. A journal
at Port Townsend, for instance,
protesting to be devoted ex-
clusively to the Democratic par
ty, and spoken of by it's cotem-
poraries as a "Democratic Or
gan," from it's first publication
to the present time has never
published an article to elucidate
what it means by Democracy, or
what distinctive principles gov
ern the action of the Demo-
cratic party of Washington Ter
rltory. 1t vituperates, raves,
denounces, and hurls stink-pots
indlscriminately, with the unc-
ton of Chinese warrior, with
out any apparent object other
than the enjoyment it derives
from the odor of it's own filth !;
but never discusses or argues
any political question of general
public interest.
It is rare to find one so filthy
and oblivious to all the decen-
cies Of newspaper discussion as
the one above alluded to, but
among the great mass Of pro-
fessed newspaper party organs
it is almost as rare to find any
explicit statement Of political
faith, or reasons for the same.
As a rule, nowadays, it is only
Independent newspapers that
discuss intelligently any politl-
cal problems; the others are
merely personal or party or
gans, devoted exclusively to pro-
noting the interest of their
own special clique or associates.
That is the reason why party
politics have become by-word
and reproach to all disinterested
Intelligent citizens.
Forty years ago, when the
two great parties of the coun-
try were known as Democrats
and Wings, every country news
paper was medium for the
discussion of questions of finance,
commerce, sources of revenue,
municipal rights and Federal
limitations, and every measure
of public policy, and every in
telligent school boy understood
precisely how each party stood
upon all of these questions and
what was the exact line of dis
tinct1on between them. Nobody
can learn anything upon any Of
these questions from the party
papers of the present day; they
are only admonished, under ccr-
tain pains and penalties, to stand
by their party, go the ticket
straight, and are constantly told
that their political opponentsare
without exception set of infer
nal scoundrels, whose only pur-
pose is to rob the public treas
ury, and that the sole object of
all political endeavor is to con-
troll and divide the spoils OF
office.
The old Democratic party, TO
which we adhered with un-
flinching fidelity for nearly forty
