Indians for over two hours, but found it
impossible to dislodge them. Private
King, of Company X, was slightly wounded.
Do not know that the Indians sustained
any casualties, except the loss OF four
horses, as they fought under cover. They
appeared to be 100 strong, but made bad

PIOCHE ITEMS.
The Transpirings of a week.

We collate from Tie accord OF last Sat-
urday the following items Of interest:
1t will take about a week yet before the
alterations to the furnace of the Hillside
mine are made, and it will probably be the
first Of September before it is started up,
as the managers calculate to have 90, 600
bushels of coal on hand before starting.
At the mine the engine and timbers are
all on the ground, and the erection of the
works was commenced Thursday. Have
commenced cutting out the shaft and
strengthening up for the machinery. The
drifts in the bottom Of the mine are still
looking splendid.
The Grand Jury came into Court yester-
day afternoon and made a partial report,
ignoring the bill against Robert Frazer,
charged with murder. Judge Rives de-
cided to hold Frazer to await the action Of
the next Grand Jury, and will render his
decision iii a short time as to whether he
will admit him to bail or not. To decide
this question, he will examine all the testi-
mony in the case and then render q de-
cision.
Matters at the Raymond & Ely are not
quito completed, but the engine is in place
below and the pumo is down ; are waiting
for a small lot OF pipe and elbows. due on
Monday next, with which to make con-
nection with the compressor and pipe at
top OF the shaft think by a week or ten
days will start up. The 80 and 20-stamp
mills continue running steadily.
On Wednesday the election for Chief
Engineer and two assistants of the Phoebe
Fire Department was held at the Protec-
ton Hose Company's house. Twenty-fonr
votes were cast; George Arnold, for Chief
Engineer receiving 30; J. b. Stevens, for
First Assistant, "a Charles Stein, for
Second Assistant, "a.

GENERAL BUTLER solves the labor prob
lem to his own satisfaction in the follow
ing platform. which he submits to the
country: my proposition is that we
should issue four hundred millions in non
interest bearing bonds Of the United States
to settle the unemployed laboring men of
the United States upon the public lands
Of the United States. No more notes of the
United States can be issued than the people
choose to take, and if they bear no interest
those which are issued involve the country
in no debt" 1t would be a very wise and
p~rovident policy, if successfully carried
out, to place the unemployed upon lands
where their labor would insure them a
home and living. At least the Southern
Pacific Railroad should have aid, to the
end that new homes might be opened up
to actual settlers. 1t would also afford a
vast outlet to the unemployed labor Of the
country.

The only material difference between the
fraud in Louisiana and the fraud in Florida
was that the former cast eight votes and
the latter four. When the conspiracy was
started ON the 9Th of November to steal
these two States, it was indispensable that
the conspirators in both should act together
understandingly. The cipher kilograms
which passed between New Orleans and
Tallahassee during the progress of the
count make plain the whole plan Of opera
tons, and Frank Morey. ex-member of
Congress and n of the Republican coun-
sci before the Returning Board, admitted,
in his recent testimony, that if the pro-
gramme for Florida had failed, the organ-
lied movement in Louisiana under the lead
of John Sherman would have been aban-
doned.
In other words, there was no object to be
gained in stealing the eight votes sepa-
rate ly, because they would not have con-
sumated the fraud, the entire twelve being
necessary TO sum up the 1876 votes which
Zach Chandler had audaciously claimed
when the conspiracy was set in motion by
lis false t. losram. The methods used in
one case were pursued in the other.
Forgery, perjury, fabricated returns. bal
lot-box stufing, manufactured affidavits
and bribery were the tools with which the
conspirators worked. And when success
crowned the ~vilIainy by these means, every
one connected with it, from the highest to
tie lowest, was appointed to Office, and is
to-day paid an annual salary from the
Treasury for aiding and abetting the crime.
