ployed there in any capacity. The COM

pay laborers is $40 per month and board.

Currency. The debates upon the bill in
the Senate occupy &C columns of the Con-

columns. In short, as Mr.. Poor observes !:
Every shade Of opinion, both in and out
of Congress, was invoked and challenged.
Never was a measure more fully, lnteili-

the characterization of the silver dollar
was a right thing to do at the tune.
The coin was not in circulation, and ac-
tually all that was done was to recognize
the already obvious fact OF its uselessness,
and drop it. No more contemplate and
shameful Misrepresentation of any histori-
cal event has however ever been undertaken
than the unscrupulous advocates of depre-
ciated silver have perpetrated in this con-
nection.

Tuiare and Kern County Settlers and the
Southern Pacific Railroad.

SAN Francisco, August Goth. - A few
months ago the Southern Pacific Railroad
Company brought about one hundred and
twenty ejectment suits against settlers on
lands claimed by the company in Tulare and
Kern counties. The defendants, by their
attorney, Henry Z. Highton, have filed
answers and cross complaints. These answers
set forth, among other things, contract or
promise on the part of the plaintiff to sell the
lauds in question at the price of unimproved
lands in the vicinity, which induced them to
enter on said lands. The prayer of the
answer is as follows That it be determined
by this honorable Court whether the plain
tiff has acquired valid title to said premises
from the Government of the United States
thst the price of said premises be fixed ac-
cording to the terms OF said contract that
reasonable time be appointed within which
defendants may pay said price, and there
upon said plaintiff be compelled to convey to
defendants the said premises; that the Court
determine the value of said improvements
upon the premises that if said defendants
are unable to pay the price fixed by this
honorable Court for said premises, the plain
tiff be compelled to pay the value of said i'm
proyements to the defendants; that the de-
PENDANTS have such other and further relief,
either or both as to equity and good con-
science may seem meet.

ance with the suggestion of leading Repub-

met Wednesday morning for the purpose of
calling meeting of the State Central Com
mittee to reorganize the Executive Com
miLtee. Previous to the holding of the
meeting all of the members of the Executive
Committee, excepting William Nj. Bunker,
d. B. jackson and j. r. Hardenberg sent in

it WAS the intention of these three gentlemen
to resign also, and that they delayed only for
the purpose of facilitating the reorganization
of the committee. Another meeting of the
committee was held yesterday afternoon at
Republican headquarters, at which William
Nj. Bunkers resignation was received. The

new members to take the places of some of
those who have resigned. The balloting re-
suited in the election of p. B. Cornwall, of

mittee. After transaCting minor business
the committee adjourned.

THE INDEPENDENT
FOR 1881!

AT no period since the great panic Of
1878 have the prospects of The INDIE
PENDENT been so promising, or its sub
scription list increased so rapidly, or its
cash receipts for its subscriptions and
advertising been so large as during the
past year. With these facts before us,
we have determined that no stop shall
be made in our onward movement, and
we therefore invite public attention to
our NEW TERMS FOR 1881, as tol-
lows:
One SUBSCRIPTION one year, in adj
vance % w
One subscription two years, IN
advance 5 0C
One subscription with one NEW
subscriber. both in advance, in
one remittance ........... W
One subscription with two NEW
subscribers, all three in add
vance. in one remittance. -. N
One subscription with three NEW
subscribers, all four in advance,
in one remittance. ..... 8 sc
One subscription with four NEW
subscribers, all five in advance,
in one remittance ........... 10 N
ANY number over five at the SAINT
rate, invariably with one remittance.
On this liberal basis we expect con-
tinued rush of new subscriptions, from
every section of the country anc
through the entire year.
We ask every old subscriber, on re.
newing his subscription. to invite at
least one person TO join him in order
ing the paper. In almost every city
town, or village it would be very
easy matter, we think, for any one to
secure four new names-making, with
his own. FIVE in all-in order to get on
lowest club rates-viz.. 300 per annum
If all will make this simple effort. oul
subscription list will he immensely
increased during the present year.
We should be very glad to have
some friend in every locality start a
movement at once 20 secure a large
club of new subscribers on very liberal
terms now offered. \ few hours trial
would produce, we think, very large
results.

Presence of Mind.

Says the St John, N. B. Globe: AS
the picnic trail. was passing over the
bridge, near the Five-Mile house, a
middle-aged woman approached from
the opposite direction. She was walk
ing pretty rapidly, and seemed to be
unaware of the proximity Of the train
until a whistle from the engineer arous-
ed her to a sense other danger. She
was then but short distance from the
advancing train, and instead of throw
ing up her hands in dispair and jump
ing off as many would have done, she
very deliberately lowered herself be-
tween the sleepers and hung on with
both hands until the train had passed
on. When all danger was over she
raised herself up again and resumed
her journey as ifnothing had happen
ed. Such presence of mind is seldom
seen, and it is no wonder that the as
tonished train hands gave the brave
woman a cheer as they saw her rising
from the dangerous position.

style too common in many pa

This does not imply that good
