stable business soon after his arrival here,
in which he was engaged at the time of
his death. In 1874 he was elected Sheriff
OF this county, was reelected in 1876,
and proved himself 10 be faithful officer.
Samuel Stewards MANY virtues made

known throughout the Territory as a warm
hearted, honorable and upright man. De
ceased had been sick all winter, suffering
with chronic laryngitis, and died Of
eruphysema Of the lungs. The funeral

THE QUARTZ Law.
IDAHO Cry, April ]

ADAAO OlII, April IttH.
Ed WORLD had not, until to-day.
learned that the Territorial law gov
erning quartz claims and the location
Of them was repealed. We are now
to be guided by that miserable Con
gressional law, which we all know
was made to benefit few monopolists
in Nevada But it must be that our
Legislature could not have foreseA ii
the evils which are sure Il, follow the
repeal Of the only point in our quartz
law by which prospectors and poor
men We're protected
contend that fifty feet on each
side of tue vein, as allowed in the
Territorial Law, was enough; and,
under that law, when "a new camp
was struck there was some chance for
others besides the first locators to lind
mines. But now what do we see?
One man makes two locations and
holds the whole mineral belt, for as
any experienced prospector knows
that in many camps the mineral fol
lows a belt of lodges probably not
over four hundred yards in width.
This prevents other poor men from
prospecting, for all the first locator
has to do is to fiud some little quartz
seam and make his locations and stand
on hill top with cannon and keep
of more enterprising and Industrious
miners; and now, that this monopoly
law is III force, we would ask what is
10 become Of all the old mining camps
No one will dare to look for new
lodges. 1t would be the height Of fol
". Take Silver City, for example. Il
this law had been in force two years
ago Silver City would, to-day, be
nearly abandoned.
There were a good many miners
making arrangements to go to the
new camp twenty-four miles from
town, but, upon finding that our law
was dead, we abandoned the idea
We hope that our Delegate i'll Con
gress will endeavor to have portions
Of the law of 1872 repealed.

Divorces i'm Washington.


WASHIN6TON. Nov. lit is really surprising
how the divorce business Is increasing in our
courts. The general charge Is desertiOn, though
In cases where contests are made the charges
are more aggravated. The divorce business has
increased so much that several legal firms devote
their entire time to to the exclusion of all other
business. There is more money In divorce cases,
as rule, than in the ordinary cases. While
there are some real good cases. many of them
are very crooked, and are based upon testimony
that is furnished by private detectives, who
make business of working up" divorce cases
and supplying missing links in the testimony
with perjured affidavitS.
To which may be added the fact, notorious
among those who have given the matter atten-
tioD, that the business Of getting divorces in
crooked cases and by irregular methods In the
District of Columbia is greatly facilitated by an
existing order OF the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict which makes sufficient in all causes of litiga
ton before it the publication notices in an
obscure weekly paper of no general circulation,
and OF almost no circulation at all. II it were
the intention TO directly aid shySters and pro-
mote rasc5lity 1t would be hard TO conceive a
more effective agency than to keep from the
public eye the notices and Information which
the laws clearly intended should be made public.

The New York Times in leading editorial re-
viewing the vote cast at the recent state cleo
ton says decisively, that to bring out the votes
which will be needed to carry the state for the
republicans next year there must be very
radical change in the tactics which forced
MI. Cornell on an unwilling party" The
Times insists that the vote cast on the 4th
instant does not warrant the assertion that
New York has been transferred from the list
Of doubtful states to the republican COL
umn. The republican candidate for governor
received 4I.2s per cent of the vote cast. In 1875
the republican ticket received 1903 per cent. of
the total vote; in 1876, 4S.12 per cent; in 1871
47.26 per cent, and in 1878, 47.21 per cent.
Therefore, upon the basis of the vote for gov
ernor the republican party has not made
any progress in changing public sentiment
and could not be shown to be in
any better condition for the presidential can
yaSs than four years ago. But the vote for Gen
Wadsworth, republican candidate for Comp
troller, presents much more hopeful exhibit to
the party. This candidate, says the Times, was
the ''most respectable nominee on the ticket
and the only one whose nomination was not
dictated by the machine" He received 437, 900
votes to 417,O0O for Cornell, out OF a total of
SS2, 600 cast, or per centage Of 1854 From this
1t is argued that with strong ticket and man
agement that would appeal to the best intel
LICENCES of the party, there is good reason to
expect success even over united democracy.
