strengte of the Three Contestants.
Deadwood Pioneer, 18th.
The Press "reslllt in figures" of Satur-
davis primaries is, if anything, more wild
and unreliable than the average state
ment promulgated by that paper. Evi-
IDENTIFY the editor has been through the
Kemble school, and is proficient in addi-
ton, division and silence. His statement
correct and Raymond doesn't stand
ghost of show, while Bennett is in but
little, if any better position. The old
saw that one story is good until another
is told, however, is very applicable in this
consideration. The other side, based
principally upon actual returns, is as fol-
lows.

Contests will occur in the convention

first named precinct it is claimed that
soldiers to the number of sixty were en-

Bennett ticket, consisting of Crosby
Wilcox and Shell; this too, with the
connivance of General Sturgis, mining

The Reason why.
Ge'Aesvi lie Hesptrlan


Some of cur Republican exchanges in the
north and northwest profess to be astounded
at the natural increase of population in the
south. They ought to remember that south
ern men do not indulge in one of the Leading
past times of northern domestic life. We do
not beat our wives to death, nor murder them
in fits of jealousy. The great northern heart
has bed for generations past over the stripes
of the southern slave; and the eye OF the
north hath wept great tears of pity over
southern domestic life; yet not metropoli-
tan pager is published in that highly civilized
country that does not contain an account OF
some poor wife butchered or beaten to death
on her own hearthstone by brutal husband.
In the whole south such an outrage does not
occur once in decade; yet there IS not
northern city o" the continent where such
acts are not almost Of daily currence. In
the south if we do not love those who per-
secute US" and pray for those 'who despite
fully use us we do love and protect oul
wives and little ones too well to butcher
them

The labors of the great convocation OF En-

a subject Of the most absorbing interest ana
we will soon take i! up and give asynopss Of
the work. 1t is perhaps the most thorough
and satisfactory scholastic labor that has been
performed in mo6ern times. Various com
mittees had their special works to do, ana re-

Hundreds of the sbest modern scholars were
retained, representing all the great protestant
denominations, and assistance was given, oy
Catholic plelates Some twelve huuureo
manuscripts were exa med, and the changes
are thousands upon thousands IN number
Yet the vital substance of the work IS In nc
way impaired. The artificial division int
chapters and verses is done away with and al
obsolete words and expressions are modern

thrown out as spurious, and all false transIa

A great deai of sentiment has been in
dulged as to the dsinterested friendship
of Ouray to the whites. Many white man
would become the friend of the Indian or
Mexican for less than 0uray received; many
a white man, in fact, changes hi: politics, his
friendships and tactics for less. In 1873
Ouray co-operated with Commissioner Brunot
in the conference looking to the cession to
the government of the San Juan country
for which and former services the govern
ment settled upon him an annuity of $1,000
which he enjoyed up to his death. The
government also built him on his 30O'acrt
