Mr.. James OMalley, inspector Of mines, in the
absence OF law requiring a detailed report of
his operations, makes a statement to the GARD
of Supervisors of the mines in the county and
their condition. He says he finds 20 places in
the county where coal is mined or dug, and that
the capital invested is sl,36S,7 700, giving en-
ployment to l,G55 men for the year ending Sept.
1878, and about the same for 1870. Number Of
tons of coal Mined 65l 300. Three men lost their
lives in the mines and in each case verdict of
unavoidable accident" was returned. The con-
diton Of the larger mines is steadily improving,
and with one or two exceptions they are up 10
the law. The latter are but little behind, and in
month will be fully up to the requirements.
Many improvements for safety have been made,
Notwithstanding the dullness OF the coal trade
The deepest mine in the county is the North
Central-540 feet. The new shaft being sunk at
Peru will reach the third vein at $50 feet.
The Vcrmillion Coal Co.'S mines at Streator
are the most extensive in the county, and are
ahead of all others in living up to the mining
laws of the state.
He then proceeds to show that everywhere the
mine owners have taken extra care to perfect
their machinery, escapements, ventilation and
drainage; and shows that the complaints made
by miners of foul air. etc, unfounded in fact,
and that though the matter Of ventilation is one
of the most difficult problems of mining, the
managers have everywhere been most active and
successful in solving it, that at all times, save
perhaps on half dozen or more very hot days in
summer the mines have been well supplied with
pure air.
OF this report the Streator Free Press says:
Its figures seem to us to be entirely too small.
If they related to Streator alone it would seem
nearer correct. Some Of Streators mines, how
ever, are in Livingston county, and from the re-
port we should pr.supe that the inspector had
not taken into account the numerous small
banks slopes aud strips. TO our positive knoWl-
ed re, there were over 400 men employed at one
time in and about Streator last year, and larger
number were subsequently, employed

Carson Appeal: We learn from a resi-
dent of Mason Valley that white man
was shot on Walker Lake Reservation
by an Indian, and that the civil author
tiles are powerless to punish him for the
shooting, owing to the Indian Agent who
has charge OF the Reservation. and whose
duty it is to compel the Indians to sur
render him up to the civil authorities, |
failing to do his duty as an official OF the |
United States.
Austin Reyeille: 1t was reported
around town that the smallpox had
broken out among the Indians. An In
dian came Into town and asked Marshal
Brennan to 60 to the campoody and see
his papoose, who be thought was suffer-
ing from the smallpox. The Marshal
went and examined the youngster, whom
he found high up on the hillside, where
it is almost cold enough to freeze one to
death, in most deplorable condition,
and very sick. He examined the child
and thinks it has the measles, certainly
not the smallpox.
The Virginia Chronicle has this to say
about Bodie: A gentleman who arrived
here from Bodie speaks very disparag-
inely of that region. He says there are
$50 men at work in the mines. and
thousand walking around idle. In that
small town there are 65 saloons, 5
butcher-shops, 2 bakeries and two dance
houses. People are crowding in there
from ell parts of the country with the
expectation of getting work, and when
their money gives out they walk the
street begging the loan of their fare back
from their friends.
Enterprise: A man giving the name of
Gibbon, arrested last Tuesday on a
charge of vagrapcy and taken before
Justice Knox, pleaded guilty. The
Justice told him to appear for sentence
the next morning at 10 O'Clock, and then
: allowed him to depart on his own recog'
, nizance, fondly hoping he would shake
the mud of the city off his vagrant hoofs
Not so, however. The man was more
than prompt. He was on hand at
o'clock. When the Justice sentenced
him to twenty-five days in the Count.
8 Jail he thanked him. AS the Constable
s was taking Gibbon to the comfortable
quarters assigned him, he said: "You
{ Justice is hard man to please. Now
q do you know that thought that if wa

would be so pleased with me that b
u would not give me less than sixty days

The Washington correspondent OF the
Sun writes: "As Thurman loses in the
Presidential race, Bayard gains, and If
the latter only had doubtful State of
any consequence behind him, there
would be but little doubt of bis nomina-
ton in 1880. As it is, Bayard is the
strongest man to-day, in the East and
South, Except Tilden. and it would not
be surprising to see the race narrowed
down to these two men before the Con-
vention meets. In the humble opinion
of your correspondent, Samuel j. Tilden
will be the next Democratic candidate
for President. His stock has been going
steadily up since the last election in New
York. In that contest he demonstrated
his ability to defeat the party in that
State, and thus developed respect, born
of fear rather than love, in the bosoms
Of great many of the local leaders who.
before that time were wont to speak
sneeringly Of Sammy and his prospects.
The Chairman OF the Democratic State
Central Committee of Iowa told me, the
other day. that Tilden was the favorite
in that State, and, SO far as be knew, il
the Northwest generally; and that. in
his opinion, all that Mr.. Tilden needed
to do in order TO insure success in thu
next Presidential Convention was te
make some very slight concessions tt
Western vagaries on the currency ques
tion." This correspondent thinks tha
Grant or John Sherman will be the Re
publican nominee, with Washburne al
the possible "dark horse"

Judge Hallett OF the United States
Circuit Court of Colorado. recently de-
livered an opinion in case pending be-
fore him, between the owners OF the
Colorado Central and Equator lodes' IN
Clear Creek county, which conclusively
settles the question of title to patented
lodes, and uphold the fnality OF patent
The facts in the case in question were
these: 1.-THE Equator lode was discov'
cred July IS, 1866, and the Colorado
Central in 1872. The owners of the las.
named lode applied for patent in 1874
and received patent in 1875. The
owners of the Equator filed an adverse
claim, brought an action of ejectment,
but we're non.suited. and patent was
thereupop issued for the Colorado Cen
trail lode. Although they have the junior
location, they have the oldest patent, and
the Court held that when the Equator
parties failed to make their adverse claim
good, they waived their right of priority,
and cannot now be heard to question
those O; the owners of the Colorado Cen
trail. although their location is the junior
one."
