On Wednesday evening last man named
Wood was robbed of the sum OF $50. He
occupied room in the Magnolia hotel. and
when he retired he placed his pantaloons
containing the money under his pillow.
Some time during the night it was stolen.
The matter was placed in the hands OF
Constable Mcfarland and X. Beidler. who
succeeded in recovering part ofthe money.
and, it Is thought, arrested the guilty party.
The prisoner will have a hearing this
morning. The evidence against him is
very strong, the pocket book which con-
tanned the money having been found and
some of the money identified.-Indeosnd.

Genera Garfield says: Under what
ever disguise of financial doctrine the new
theorists present themselves, their real
purpose is to procure the discharge OF
debts by something less than a full and
complete payment. They announce them
selves the champions of the debtor class,
and dcnonnce creditors as tyrants and OBJ
pressors. Disagrceing on all other points.
they arc substantially united in opposition
to the payment of debts in money which
is worth 100 cents on the dollar. Their
artlor for the grcenbacks has visibly dooled
since its representative value has risen SO
nearly to par with gold. Silver was an of.
tense to them until it was SO smitten will,
depreciation that its purchasing power be-
came less than that OF the greenback.
Whether they intend it or not, the success
OF their policy will be the inevitable de-
struction Of the public credit, and the
consequent destruction of business pros
pcrity.

the necessarics Of life. The mayor was
waited upon by il large dcputation of

stating his inability to take such action,

sary, to the various benevolent organiza-

The representatives of the Northern
Pacific railroad have lately been before the
House committee on Pacific railroads, set
ting forth their claims for the extension of
the time Of completing the road to ten
years. They promise to complete at least
i0o miles OF road year, and to permit set
tiers to go upon unsurveyed lands and re-
tain them at $3.50 per acre. 1t Is to be
hoped that these and other liberal offers
made by the n. P. railroad will persuade
Congress to grant the extension Of time

Washington Territory requires all
