The nomination of Keifer, of Ohio,
for Speaker, is looked upon as a decid.
ed Stalwart victory. Hiscock, of New
York, his strongest opponent, is pro-
nounced Half-breed and anti Conkling
and anti-Grant man. He was Liberal
Republican in 1872, and supported
Greeley for President, and the Grant
men could not brook the idea of having

Representatives.

The Gold Park Mining Co., COL, is
in furore of excitement. Four days
ago Harry Weston, foreman of the COM
pany, was shot and killed by Bayley,
the discharged blacksmith. Bayley
also made an unsuccessful attempt to
shoot Superintendent Turney. He then
fortified himself in his cabin, which was

without dislodging its occupant. FL

was placed near the door and ignited.
The explosion which followed tore the
cabin to pieces, and Bayley was found
with bullet hole through his heart,
having evidently committed suicide.
Bayley has several sympathizers who
have threatened Turneys life, and a
strong guard surrounds his cabin night
and day. Jack White and Bayley's
other friends were ordered out of the
camp by the vigilantes. The Bayley-
ties paraded the town all day with
cooked revolvers, looking for the vigi.
lantes. but left at night. Much trouble
is anticipated.
