ORE CON.

PORTLAND. April 1.-THE attorneys
fer An Lee appeared in Judge Deady's
Court yesterday afternoon and immedi-
ately began arguments for the reprieve
of the condemned murderer. Mr Nal
lory clsimed that the present Supreme
and Circuit bench of Judges were lille
gal, and that no vacancy existed when
Governor Thsyer made the appoint
ments of Kelly, Prim, Boise and circuit
Judge Bellinger. Therefore they were
not properly Judges. and never had
been. and as a consequence all the acts
of these so called Judges were illegal
and unconstitutional. The fact that
they had been recognized and accepted
as Judges for two years, and their acts
In all this time were never questioned.
was entirely overlooked by Mallory.
Judge Deadly listened patiently to the
laboriors argument. and. when the law
yers had fully discharged themselves of
their volubii,y. said. before passing on
such all important question he wished
to be well satisfied Us to what he ought
to do; therefore he would adjourn the
case until ~ O'Clock Monday morning.
The Justice then directed the counsel
to convey u request to Governor Thayer
to the effect that, If it was not incon-
sistent with his sense Of duty, he grant
reprieve in the case Of All Lee for q
few days.
This dealing with tho highest au-
thority in the State by United States
Judge was tho subject of much COM
ment on the streets last night. 1t was
generally agreed that it was very pre-
sumptuous. From . strictly reliable
source we have it that Governor Thayer
regards the action of Deadly as the
hight Of presumption. and questions his
right to interfere with matters pertain
ing to our Courts In the event Of q
conflict between the Courts, the Cover
nor will feel himself IN duty bound to
command Sheriff Norton TO proceed
with the execution next Tuesday and
pay no attention to any order from
Deadly. If any order whatever is sd-
dressed 10 him by the United States
Court. be will refuse to recognize it.
1t is aimed that Deadly has ne right

The Governor was engaged this morn

of Judge Deadly. In this he will show

nal for the crime Of murder. and should
make expiration on the ga'lows.
Sheriff Norton will recognize the or

as to the hanging Of All Lee on Tues
day next.

A FoRTUNAFE FAILURE.

The attempt to transfer the control of
Indian affairs to the War Department has
fortunately failed, and it is not believed
that it can be revived this session of Con-
gress. The vacillation and intirmity of
purpose which seem to be inseparable from
congressional action in regard to the Indians
generally have perhaps tended in this case
to produce better results than usual 1t
would certainly have been most deplora-
bic policy to adopt, and those who think
otherwise would do well to read the work
which we reviewed on Saturday, entitled
"Our Indian Wards, The army has in
the past had ample opportunities to dem
onstrate its capacity for dealing with
the Indians. and it has failed in
every instance. There is no ground for be-
leving that it has learned anything recent
ly, and the only conclusion justified by
past experience is, that if it had control of
the Indians again there would be even more
wars with them than at present, and that
such advances toward civilization as any
of them are making would be stopped. We
have done so little for them hitherto, that
we cannot in justice adopt policy which
would be sure to result in depriving them
of even the feeble growth they have sue
ceeded in attaining despite the distractions
with which they are surrounded.

The duties paid at the Custom house for
the past week were 500, 305, making total

The deaths for the week ending yester-

the First Congregational Church, has been
granted one years leave Of absence, on ac-

The money in the City Treasury has been
counted by the Auditor and Mayor. The
entire amount Is 81, 667, 3SS 81, including
an excess of 81 II over the amount called
for by the books, which are all right.
The authorities of the Custom house are
waiting for the Treasury Department at

INDIAN ARCHAEOLOGY.

Professor Baird asks Congress for an
appropriation of $4,000, for the purpose
of continuing the chronological researches
among the North American Indians now
being prosecuted under the direction of
the Smithsonian Institution. We hope that
Congress will make this appropriation. 1t
is not often that it is asked to contribute
anything in aid of scientific researches, and
this is matter which concerns national
pride as well as science. A great and
powerful and wealthy nation, established
upon a continent Astounding in the most
valuable and interesting relics of antiquity,
and having in charge the remnant of many
indigenous peoples, whose customs and
habits are full of Importance for the stu
dent of ethnology, the United States ought
long ago to have taken measures for the
gathering and preservation of these pre-
cious data, and should have thus demon
strated to the world its appreciation of the
special advantages it has enjoyed, and its
obligations to science. Professor Baird
states that the country is being rapidly
stripped of its most valuable archaeological
remains by the agents of foreign govern
ments, whose national museums are en-.
riched by the spoils of our Indian mounds
and caves. There can be no doubt that
these things should as far as possible be re-
tanned in the country. By this time there
ought to have been established at Wash
ington splendid national museum, which
could have been filled with the richest and
most important chronological and archao-
logical material to be found anywhere in
the world. 1t would be national dis
grace if hereafter American scholars de-
sirous of studying the past history of their
native land, were compelled to depend
upon European collections for the informa-
ton which ought to have been preserved
at their own doors. The Smithsonian In
stitution has accomplished noble and IN
valuable work in this connection, but its
means are limited, and it is not able to do
justice to the subject. 1t must be remem-
bered also that the Smithsonian Institution
is supported by fund bequeathed for that
purpose by an Englishman, and that there
fore it can scarcely be regarded as a strictly
national undertaking. The amount asked
for by Professor Baird is a small one, and
Congress can well afford to make the APP
preparation, while the country cannot afford
to let foreigners carry off all the honors and
all the interesting relics which are here
concerned

KEARNEY's SENTENCE CONFIRMED.

The validity of Judge Rix's sentence
upon KearneY has been affirmed by the
Superior Court, and it only remains to be
seen whether the defendant can take his
case to the Supreme Court on a writ OF
habeas corpus. There does not appear to
be any doubt that the original sentence
will be confirmed in any event, and it is to
be hoped that the enforcement of it may
be delayed as little as possible. 1t is very
desirable for many reasons that he should
not escape the full penalty of his offense,
but that he should be made to serve out his
term in the House of Correction like any
other law breaker. In case of this kind
the class which is controlled by men Of
Kearney's stamp never draw distinctions.
If their champion goes unpunished they
at once claim the fact as defeat of the
law, which they regard as an enemy, and

THE GIANT POWDER EXPLOSION

The recent destructive explosion of giant
powder at the works near Berkeley has, as
is usual in such cases, left no trace by
which the cause of the accident can be as
certained, but there are some reports
abroad which justify a suspicion that the
supposed fatal carelessness of some of the
Inflated workmen may have resulted from
an attempt to earn more wages by quicker
work 1t is said that the piece-work prin-
ciple had recently been introduced at the
works, and that the men, finding it impos-
sible to earn as much this way as on regu-
lar wages, while exercising the customary
precautions, had abandoned many of the
latter. Incredible as it might appear at
first sight that men engaged in so danger
GUS business should be willing to forego
the checks and safeguards upon the due
observance of which their lives depended,
there can be no doubt that recklessness
quite equal to this is frequently exhibited.
The truth is that no matter how dangerous
an occupation may be, use deprives it of
all terrors for those who are engaged in it,
and even in time renders them careless.
1t is of course impossible to collect Stats
tics in regard to the causes of explosions in
powder works, but we do not think
it is at all doubtful that nine tenths
of such casualties are caused by the
wanton violation of rules or the neglect of
stated precautions. One account of the
Giant Powder case is to the effect that
though the rule was to use only wooden
mallets in packing the cartridges, some of
the men had taken to use iron ones, be-
cause they could do mere work with them.
1t is perfectly useless to moralize over &C
cidents of this kind. Human nature can
not be kept on the strain perpetually, in
any circumstances, and even when the
penalty of relaxation may be sudden death
the loss of sensibility regarding the ever
present danger is only a question of time.
Some day the safeguards are sure to be
neglected the forbidden nails creep into
the shoes the forbidden iron hammer re-
places the harmless wooden one IMMUNITY
brings increase of hardihood, until at
length the fatal conjunction occurs, and
Nature enacts the fullest penalty for her
broken laws.

The Chico Record of the 18th instant
reports brutal murder on Butte creek.
the scene of the tragedy being located not
far from Blackleg tunnel, near Nimshew.
The report is that man named Thomas
Martin, and another named Richards or
Richardson, quarreled about water rights,
and that Martin had killed Richards with
an ak, sinking the blade of the ak into the
head of Richards, and also nearly severing
one of his legs. Martin fed and had not
been captured at last accounts. Richards
was man of some 60 years, and is reported
to have had the prior right to the water

At Sawyer's Tannery, Napa, they have a

So, 500 remained to be thus divided, and

We learn from Victor Amy, says the
Kern county Californian, who has recently
returned from Delano, that that place,
from one of the deadest and dullest in the
southern part of the State, under the in
tiuence of a favorable season that has de-
veloped the pastoral wealth of the vast
plains around it, now can only be likened,
in its prevailing appearance of excitement
and business activity, to an exceptionally
prosperous mining camp This results from
the countless bands of sheep that are
ranging in the vicinity, the strengthening,
the shipments of wool, and the presence of
buyers, spectators, drummers, etc, and
the money that is profusely scattered by
the shearers, herders and others.
