THE o DAY.
Continuation OF n Trial of the
Sherifrs Posse.

Three witnesses were on the stand YES
terday in Judge Cromer's Court, and tes-
titled in relation to the Fish Creek fight.
The examination Of n occupied but a
few minutes, another was in the chair from
about IL until 4 O'Clock, and the examine
ton Of the third was not concluded. An
alyzed, the testimony given was as weak as
that given by the first witness. On two
points the witnesses agree, namely, no shots
we're fired by the strikers, and the officers
continued firing from one-half to three
quarters of an hour. Does any sane man
believe that a body of men would stand
that length of time and allow themselves
to be made targets Of by such dead shots
as composed the posse, and if they did
would not the officers have succeeded in
killing more than five; or in case they fed
at the first fire, is it reasonable to suppose
the off GERS would nave remained on the
ground for the length of time mentioned,
and amused themselves by firing into va
cancy? A child OF half a dozen summers
could make a distinction between three
minutes and ~three-quarters of an hour,

liable in one thing, all their evidence will
be taken with many grains OF allowance.
1t was testified that Rich killed Padrona
and Brown Pompana, and two witnesses
agreed in saying that Rich fred the first
shot, viii e the third was not positive as to
who did. 1t was also asserted that Brown
was on the ground the entire time, whereas
it la a matter OF fact That he rode up inst
before the firing began. 1t is true that no
difference how cool and self-possessed a
man may be under such trying circum-
stances, his memory in some things will
prove faulty, and probably no two men
out of a hundred will relate exactly the
same story. With all due allowance. how
ever, it must be confessed that the prose-
cution has not yet as strengthened its case,
although possibly its most intelligent and
reliable witnesses have so far been kept in
the background. One of the parties who
testified, Dominica Quadro, was arrested
at the instance Of officers Toomey and
Martin, who charge that he fred at them

EunEKA, New, September 3. is

LthEhA NeF.j september D, 1918.
EDITOR SENTINEL: For some reason I'M
known, it is noticeable in our evening
paper that it seizes upon all and every oc-
casional opportunity to screen off the light
Of one side Of a pending question, and, per
contra, prodigally reflect it on the other
side. For instances: While the hearing of
the 20 Italian prisoners of last week was
going on, certain reports were published
by that paper that the Italians had stopped
or turned back coal teams on two occa-
sions, which has never been proved nor
ever heard of since; furthermore, while
the said examination was going on. all, or
nearly all, the dispositions OF one side were
given in full in the columns Of said paper
so its subscribers could have a fair judg-
ment or opinion Of the case. On one occa-
sion though, Il allude to Mr.. Sadler's ex-
amination,) everything was related, but
the cross-examination of the same happen
ing to be rather knotty and not very
smooth was by the same paper very ju-
diciously omitted, although the direct ex-
animation was inserted. Again. on the oc-
casion Of the Coroner's Jury trial Of the
Sheriff. posse, every word Of their deposit
ton was carefully related, and emphati-
cally in some instances, by laudable cita-
tons Of antecedents, records and physical
descriptions, etc.; while in the case Of the
present testimony in yesterdays and to-
nights issue Of that paper, everything is
hushed up, as if it should be criminal for
the people to hear and know what the
other side nave to say in their defense.
There have been three or four witnesses put
ON the stand these last two days. and very
plainly and fairly examined and cross-ex-
amined. but nothing of the kind can be
learned from that paper but a sarcastic
hint or two where, through the confusion
of an intricate cross-examination, the Wit
ness might have got off q trils on matters
Of no bearing to the case. ''Tell it all, sir,
or none" Exhibition OF one side and
silence on the other smells strongly Of
trying to raise prejudice.

THE MINING RECORDS.
A Dispute as TO when the Official
Year Ends.

EUREKA, September Q, 1879.
EDITOR SENTINEL: Pursuant to the call
of Mr.. L. M%olinelli, late Mining Recorder
of Eureka Mining District, an election for
Mining Recorder was held on Monday even
ing. September LIST, at which election Mr..
NJ. G.. Cavanaugh was elected and is now
the Mining Recorder Of Eureka Mining
District. To-day Mr.. Cavanaugh demand
ed the records Of the District, and Mr..
Molinelli refused to deliver them to the
duly elected Recorder, claiming that he was
| elected on the 10Th day of October, 1878,
and is entitled to hold for n year. The
first election Of Mining Recorder was held
on the 10Th day Of September, 1864, at
which time laws for the government Of the
district were framed and adopted, and q
Mining Recorder was elected to hold his
Office under Section 2 of those laws up to
the LIST day Of September, 1865. Since then
elections for Mining Recorder have been
held with great regularity about the LIST
day Of September Of each year, and the
official year has always been and is now
considered to commence and end on the
first Monday in September.
where tntfe nave Deeu irregularities II
was owing to the neglect Of the Mining
Recorder to call elections. Mr.. Molinelli,
by calling the election as he did, has
recognized the fact that the first Monday
in September was the proper day to hold
such an election, and that the official year
ended on that day. Immediately after an
election every Recorder has up to this date
delivered up theb books without cavil to his
successor, as it was his duty to do.
Mr.. Molinelli was elected for an unex-
pired term, and not for one year. There
is nothing in the mining laws which au-
thorize any such thing as a term for one
year. On the contrary, the mining laws
say that the Recorder "shall hold his Office
until the first Monday of September"
AS this dispute is likely to cause legal
difficulties. and as the Office, as has been
stated, is only worth $50 per month, it
would seem as if Mr.. Molinelli ought to
deliver the books to his successor, in JUS
tice to himself and the whole mining COM
munity. H.
lin order to avoid complications, we
would suggest that the question in issue
be submitted to three attorneys for q de.
cision, the parties agreeing to abide by the
same. The Office is not worth quarreling
about.-ED. SENTINEL.
