material belonging to that establishment.
and doing material damage to several
other printing offices in the same build

saved only its subscription list in dam
aged condition. The Resources Of Ore

and general disarrangement. The Stand>
ard was insured for $500, which lacks
about 81 900 of covering its loss. The
forms OF the paper had gone t" press and
were saved. None of the papers suspend
publication. The fire it Is supposed was
caused hy the explosion of an oil lamp
after the hands had left the composing

Presidents Veto.

The President sent to the House the
following M ssage. vetoing the Deficiency
Appropriation bill:
After mature consideration of the bill
entitled, etc. return it to the House of
Representatives with my objections t" its
passage. The bill apuropriates about
$SOO,OOO of which over 100000 is for
the payment of fees of U s. Marshals and
general and special Deputy Marsl,als,
earned during the current fiscal year, and
their incidental expenses.
The appropriations made in the bill
are needed to carry on the operations of
the Government and to fulfill It's obliga>
tions for the payment of money long
since due Its officers for services and ex-
penses essential to the execution of their
duties under the laws of the United States
The necessity for these appropriations is
so urgent, and they have been so long
delayed, that if the bill before me con-
tanned no permanent or legal legislation
unconrected with these appropriations.
it would receive my prompt approval. 1t

important parts OF laws for the regula-

laws have for several years past been the
subject of vehement political controver>

On the other hand it has been maintained

RAILROAD CONTRACT.-The Portland
Standard OF the 1st inst says: The North
Pacific Railroad has recently made new
departure IN the matter Of contracts, and
gave ont the other day t" the contracting
firm of Coulter, Mclean & Co., 16d miles
of heavy grading. The part Of the road
let out to this firm lies just tins side Of
Spokane Falls, and is an exceeding hea
w one. Great hills have to be pierced
and deep cuts and fills made. The con-
tract is one of the largest made for some
time. According to the engineers esti>
mates it will cost $685., 900 to complete
the roadway, although Mr.. Coulter is of
the opinion that this estimate is entirely
too small. He places the probable cost
at 100000. To finish the job about
100 men and 200 teams will be required.
Mr.. Mclean will superintend the jol,
while Clarence Coulter will overlook af>

ranted by the cons sitution. Under these
circumstances to attempt in an appropri>
alton hill q modification or repeal Of
these laws is TO annex condition ia the
passage of needed and proper approprla-
tions which tends to deprive the Execu-
tive Of that equal and Independent exer
else of discretion and judgment which
the Constitution contemplates.
The objection to the bill, therefore, to
which respectfully ask your attention,
is that it gives marked and deliherste
sanction, attended by no circumstances
OF pressing necessity, to the questionable
and as am clearly of opinion, dangerous
practice Of tacking on appropriation
bills general and permanent legislation.
This practice opens wide the door to
hasty. inconsideratc and sinister legisla-
ton. 1t invites attacks upon The lnde-
pendence and constitutional powers of
the Executive by providing an easy and
effective way of constraining executive
discretion.
Although of late this practice has been
resortcd to by both pc itical parties
when clothed with power, it did not
prevail until forty years after the adop>
ton of the Constitution, and it is conf
dently believed that it is condemned by
the enlightened jude ment OF the country.
States which have adopted constitutions
during the last quarter Of a century have
generally provided remedies for the evil.
Many OF them have enacted that no laws
shall contain more than one subject,
which shall be plainly expressed in its
title. The Constitutions of more
than half the States contain substantially
this provision or some other of like in
tent and meaning. The public welfare
will be promoted in many ways by the
return to the early practice Of the Gov
ernment and to true legislation, which is
that every measure should stand upon its
merits. am firmly convinced that ap-
preparation bills ought not to contain
any legislation not relevant to the appli-
cation or expenditure of money thereby
appropriated, and that by strict adher>
ence to this principle an Important and
much needed reform will be accom-
pllshed.
Placing my objection to the bill on
this feature Of its frame, forbear any
comment upon important general and
permanent legislation which it contains,
as d matter of specific and independent
consideration.

WASHINGTON, May IA meeting of

fer the mining bill prepared by the land
Commissioners. Senator Jones and Rep
resentative Daggett. of Nevada; Camp
bell, of Arizona; Berry, Of California:
Bedford, of Colorado, and Maginnis, of

"And in all cases where the main dip of

degrees from the horizon the right to

yOnd the side lines of the location drawn
downward vertically. and on any mineral
land where there is not an ou' crop of

iEg claim of the SINE size as claims now
allowed by the laws, and lie shall have
the exclusive possession of such claim
so long AS he shall expend 5000 worth OF
work each year in exploring for mineral.
and when vein or lode shall he discov-
cred, patent may be obtained as is now
provided by law. In case the locator
shall fail to perform the annual labor
therein required the said claim shall be
open to relocation the same IS though it
never had been located; provided that
the original locators. their heirs, assigns,
or legal repr' sentat;ves have not resumed

his party as zeaIously and much more

possibly become sincere and useful
