The BATTLE Mountain Fire.


A number Of reports in relation TO
the losses sustained by the Are at Bat.
Ito Mountain night before last,
were in circulation, but al
though severe, coming so closely upon
the heels Of tho former disaster Of the
same nature, IL is q relief to find that
they were all more or loss exaggerated.
Information direct from the locality OF
tho fire, gives the aggregate loss as
$4,000. Dusang's and Msyo's saloons.
together with q restaurant adjoining
wero consumed, but with the exception
Of q couple Of billiard tables IN the 50.
looms, the principal contents OF the
buildings were saved. Five other frame
houses close by, were also consumed,
but as In the other instances, most OF
their contents were rescued from the
flames. We did not learn TO whom tho
lattor buildings belonged, but are In.
formed that they wero small, and Of
comparatively little value. The citizens
OF our sister town havo suffered more
than an equitable share Of misfortune
from FIRE during the past few months,
and II Is dovoutly to DO hoped that this
calamity will DO their last for Years 10
come at least.

cans. No wonder, it so plainly shows
their guilt. The three Republican
members of the committee arc to
make separate report, declaring
everything lovely. Beast Butler,
with his unique love of making every
body feel uncomfortable, will submit
his version OF the affair, showing, in
addition to other matters, how Hayes
hobnobbcd with South Carolina and
Louisiana and traded off those States
for the Presidential chair. Wrigglc
as they may, however, history will
convict the Republicans Of bold and
shameless robbery Of the highest Office
in the gift Of the United States. The
handwriting is on the wall. The

Showing it all Up.

The Potter committee has made an
able, clear and dispassionate report,
bare Of all rhetorical flourish and
bombast, but severe and cutting in its
simple statement of facts. The theft
Of the Presidency by the Republicans
is shown by the logic Of the great
events Of the time, the testimony of
such cattle as Weber, Anderson and
jerks being totally disregardcd. 1t
Is shown that the Florida Canvassing
Board withheld its report until the
day for casting the electoral vote, so
the Radicals could meet, vote for
Hayes, and adjourn before any
attempt could bo made to stop them.
Tho Legislature and tho Supreme
Court both demanded recount,
which gavo the State to Tildon be-
yond shadow of doubt. Yet the
Electoral Commission counted the
stolen votes. In Louisiana, Hayes
received several thousand votes less
than Packard. Yet tho electoral vote
was cast for him. The first return
was detective, and tho president Of
tho Senate refused to receive it. A
now one was mado out secretly and
the signatures Of at least two electors
deliberately forged. The original re-
turn was given to tho Eight-to-sevon
commission, and after its decision, it
was stolen from the records and the
forged one substituted as the original.
All these facts constitute an organized
conspiracy. This is aggravated by
the appointment Of all the Returning
Board rascals to fat offices. WASH
ington letters say that the report
csused much feeling among Republi.

TIE RADICAL Senator's OH Monday
made fools Of themselves in putting a
proviso to the Mexican pensions bill
that Jeff Davis should be excluded
from its benefits. President Davis
would not have taken the money any
how, and singling him out for abuse
is merely insulting the whole South.
It was we'll shown that the United
States is stultifying itsclfby thrusting
honors OH such arch rebels as Long
street, Mosby and Key, and suffering
Joe Johnston and Hampton and Cor
don and others Of that ilk to sit III
Conornpo- -:whN u" : e5til9r CopteSerate,,
Is made a political pariah..., Such
special attention makes Mr.. Davis n
greater hero than he would otherwise
be. Many people at tho South criti-
ciscd him severely both during and
after the war, but when he is made
the outward and visible sign Of all the
memories and associations of the Lost
Cause, the South will stand by him
to the death. Old Zach Chandler, the
presidential thief, had the effrontery
to say that Mr.. Davis had perjurcd
himself in taking the oath Of office
before the war with lie in his heart.
What the people wish to know Of
Zach is not what Mr.. Davis did, but
what he himself did with those cipher
dispatches he sent to Florida and
Louisiana in 1876. The charitably
disposed will be inclined to attribute
the Michigan Senator's speech to
drunkenness. If he persists in swill-
ing liquor he will see worse devils
before long than ever Mr.. Davis was.
The upshot Of the whole controversy
In the Senate was that the entire
measure was defeated and the Mexican
veterans will get no pensions.
