under the charge of attempting to
burn the store of j. S. Broadwater,
of same place. Reports concerning
the matter conflict, but the most au-
thentic indicates that each was the
sutton ola charming young lady, and,
the latter succeeding in winning her
favor, the former was so far incensed
as to resort to the dangerous expedi-
ent ofburning Broadwater out. Shaw
belongs to highly respectable fam.
lily, upon whom and a large connec-
ton this calamity falls heavily. He
gave bail for appearance at Court in
the sum of $4,000. His former high
character disposes us to the hope that
he may be able to establish his inno-
cence.-Frost6ury Journal.

Poisonous Cigarettes.

Cigarette smoking is now a fash
ionable habit, and one which is In
creasing at an alarming rate among
half grown boys, and it is the epin.
ion of prominent physicians that if
this habit is not checked, additions
to our asylums will be in order. A
leading physician to satisfy himself
that there was death in that form of
tobacco, had a cigarette analysed.
The result was startling one. The
tobacco was found to be strongly ina.
pregnated with opium. while the
wrapper, which was warranted to be
rice paper, was proven to be the
NEST ordinary paper, whitened with
arsenic, the two poisOns combined
being present in sufficient quantities
to create in the smoker a habit OF
using opium without his being aware
of it, and which craving can only be
satisfied by an incessant consumption
of cigarettes. Smoke good cigars
or tobacco when you wish to indulge
in the weed.

Tuesday last, before the Superior
Court of San Francisco, the trial Of
Mayor Kalloch with the view of
Ousting him from his Office was cem-
menced. The most curious feature of
the affair is the fact that the law
which is relied upon to con Wet him
was enacted through the influence of
Kalloch himself and his party asso-
ciates. Like Phalaris of old, he is
the first victim of his ewn ingenious
device. One of the provisions of the
new constitution which was forced
upon the people by the Kallochites
and Kearneyites makes the accep-
lance of free passes from railroads by
any public officer sufficient cause for
removal. 1t is charged that Kalloch
solicited and accepted free passes, and
this alone. if proven, is sufficient to
warrant his expulsion from Office.
There are other charges of much
graver character which, it is said, can
be fully substantiated, so that the
prospect for the Sand-lot Mayor
would seem to be drsary, indeed.
With Kearney and Cannon in Jail,
and Kalloch expelled from his office,
the Socialist party in San Francisco
would be decidedly out at elbow.
Nor will they have the poor satisfac-
ton of alleging that these individu-
ais have been made martyrs of. On
the contrary, the people of San Fran
cisco have been wonderfully patient,
and more than sufficient answer to
such declaration is found in the fact
that Kallech and his follows will
have been convicted in strict obedi-
ence to laws which they themselves
dictated. The triumph for law and
order, even should the effort to drive
Kalloch from his Office prove abor-
tive, is already clear and uHequivo-
cal, and with the experience Of the
past year or so to warn her, it is not
likely that California will eyer again
submit herself to the rule of mob.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

Special Correspondence to The Republican. ]
WASHINGTON. d. c.. May %, 1880.
AS the Republican State Conyen.
tions are about all held, the relative
standing of the various candidates
and the opinions of leading Repub-
licans will, no doubt be interesting.
Grant undoubtedly leads on the list.
He has 290 votes, counting all that is
conceded to hin by fair minded
men, although some of them are
claimed, and with good reason, by
the Blaine and Sherman men. Blaine
follows with 277, and these are for
him first, last and all the time.
Grant does not claim. nor will he get,
one of them. Sherman stands third
on the list with 1856. They are all
anti-Grant, and will vote for Blaine,
or Edmunds, or Window, should it
become apparent that Sherman can't
be nominated. Edmunds has Sc GER
tain, and Washburne ID. While the
two last named candidates are for
Grant, their followers are bitterly
opposed to him and would not give
him a single vote. This is, in few
words, the standing of the candi-
dates at present.
If Grant does not have a majority
on the first ballot, it is plain to be
seen that he cannot obtain one at all,
hence his nomination will be impos-
sibls. and the question then will be,
can, or will his followers form a
combination with the other candi-
dates strong enough to defeat Blaine
or Sherman. If this can be done,
and the nomination of either of the
three prominent men be rendered
impossible, all will then turn to the
clark horse" most available. Ed
munds, Washburne and Window are
the 'dark horses" and, as has been
shown, there is a possibility that one
of them may be chosen to lead the
Republicans to victory next fall. By
his supposed treachery in Illinois.
and in Wisconsin and Massachusetts,
Washburn is Out of the race, and will
get no support frem tho Grant men.
Edmunds has great strength, and is
considered an available candidate.
He is locked upon favorably by the
Grant men, and they would transfer
their strength to him, but he could
expect no support from the anti
Grant column. Without something,
now unexpected occurs, Edmunds
will not be nominated. Window is
the latest. He has grown in strength
since the Minnesota Convention
amazingly. The Grant men look ia
vorably upon him, and SO do the
Blaine and Sherman men. Should
the three prominent candidates fail.
he will in all probability receive the
nomination. He can poll the full
party vote, and any candidate who
can do that is elected. By the way,
the estimate of the Blaine men is
Blaine 1923; Grant 262; Sherman "a.
Of the Grant men-Grant 1893; Blaine
1863; Sherman 96.
There is some talk now of post
pening adjournment from May 31st
until June 10th. and there is great
probability that this will be done.
All the Appropriation bills will be
through by the 3lst, but the Tariff
and Revenue men demand ten DAYS
for consideration of their measures.

takes the lead and is used not only
in the United States but in foreign
countries. The frame is made of the
best wrought iron. Tables of field
trials show it to be about 40 per

machines in use. The bolt and ar
rangement by which the pitman is
attached to the knife heel prevents
any lost motion. and if for no other
reason. this should cause the farmer
to prefer the Champion. For dura-
