Ranchers along the Carson and in
Mason Valley are suffering from the
embarrassment of riches, in other
words their crop of hay is so large
they do not know how to dispose of
it. The impending deal in stocks
will settle the question to their sat
isfaction, as then there will be
plenty of money. "Money nakes
the mare GO" aud when she goes she
will need hay. The mare will get
the hay; ranchers the money. More
money more mares; more mares
more hay, and repeat, until the hay
is used up, the mares die, the money
is spent, and everybody is happy.

A Milestone Mine.

A. s. Dldine and Frank Sherman
have discovered a milestone ledge in
the mountains east of the mouth of
Clear Creek. Scyth rifles and whet
stones can be split out almost ready
for use, without any polishing or
grinding. The stone has the soft
and even grit necessary for rapid and
not too fine sharpening, aud can be
supplied IN unlimited quantities at a
very low cost. In view OF our in.
creasing agricultural interests and
the prospect of competing railroad
which will give freight rates that
will justify shipment Of low priced
articles, this ledge is liable to become
n valuable piece of property for the
lucky discoveries.

Death of George DAILY.

The San Francisco Post gives the
following particulars of the death OF
Geo. Daily near Fit. Bliss, New Next
co. "The Indians on the 18th at
tackled the Fort Bliss garrison under
Lieutenant Schaeffcr, and were re-
pulsed. DAILY, in company with
Lieutenant G. W. Smith, OF Virginia,
seventeen soldiers and s me citizens,
followed the Indians. Daily aud the
Lieutenant took the lead. About
fifteen miles from the mines they ran
onto the Indians, who had caused
their horses to pass through a small
canon while they took to the hills.
They shot Daily five times. They
took Lieutenant Smiths clothing
from him, piled it up about his face
aud set it on fire, but did not do any
thing with DAILY other than take his
gun aud pistol. Daly's body was
taken by the soldiers and turned
over to Mr.. McDscdonald, who bur
led it in the valley. Daily was 80
years of age, and leaves a.wife, three
children and a brother in this city,
Those who hated DAILY while alive
will doubtless not change their opin-
ion now, but none Can say that ne
was ever anything but honest in his
dealings and faithful to his frinds
His disposition often led him to face
trouble which other men would nave
avoided, but it was usually not of
his own making IN the first place,
and though probably mistaken some
times, those who Judge him fairly
will concede that he was doing what
he thought was right.

Accident at SutrO.

On Thursday afternoon man
named William Devine was caved
on and very seriously injured while
putting up timbers in the South
Header If the Sutro Tunnel. The
rock tell on bis back, and when first
taken out it vas supposed that his
back was broken, but this was found
to be a mistake. He is, however,
injured internal;y, and at last &C
counts was in very dangerous con.
dition. This is the first serious ac-
cident which has occurred in the
Tunnel for long time. To the care
full management as well as extraerdi-
nary good fortune may be attributed
their long immunity from under
ground casualties, and i: is hoped
that this is not the precursor of an
accident wave such as sometimes
sweeps over the mines of the Com
stock.

STAR ROUTES.

New York, 15.-The Sans Wash
ington: On the star route case
Colonel Bliss does not regard the
quashing of the information last
week as a very serious matter,
especially in view of the fact that
evidence has recently been discov-
cred, as is believed, which will make
it possible to prosecute these cases.
Government has evidences, it is
claimed, of the payment of men in
1879. The statute will not, there
fore, bar these cases if the evidence
be good for anything, until some
time in December. Its understood
that government now proposes to
bring the cases first in the police
court here. The defendants after
arrest, will have the privilege either
of waving examination and being
bound over for trial, in case the
grand jury Of the Supreme Court
finds true bills, or of demanding a
preliminary hearing in the lower
court.

Seeking Security.

New York, IA. - The steamer
Bohemia arrived, to-day,and brought
100 Jews, the first that found an
asylum in Spain from prosecutions
in Russia and Germany, the past
summer. They were assisted to this
country by the Alliance Israel Uni
verselle. The steamship agreed to
provide these passengers with food
according to the Hebrew ritual, be-
ginning at their start from the Rus
sian frontier, until their arrival at
New York, and the agents of the
line co-operated with theAlliance in
providing for their comfort to their
destination. The immigrants are
principally agriculturists and are
strong, hardy men. The steamer
SiziSid, due Wednesday next, will
bring $50 more. 1t is said 5000 will
emigrate this winter.

TIE Indian Question.

Washington, 15.-The annual re-
port Of the secretary Of the interior
is largely devoted to fresh decisions
on the Indian question. He strongly
recommends that liberal provision
be made by Congress for teaching
the Indian youths our language !;
that upon just terms to the Indians
the number and area of the existing
reservations be greatly reduced !;
that on such reservations as are not
we'll adapted to farming with irri-
cation, efforts be made to teach the
Indians to become herdsmen, in
stead Of endeavoring to make them
farmers; that the Indian titles to re-
duced reservations be Individual
lied and thoroughly protected by
law, and that On more civilized re-
servations Indians be encouraged to
abandon their tribal relations by
setting up experimental forms of
local government among them as
nearly like as may be to the system
Of county government prevailing in
the states or territories in which
the reservations are respectively To-
Gated.

Foreign.

Berlin, 15.-The KreatS lei 1I1lg
says: The conference of Bismarck
with the Emperor shows complete
harmony between them relative to
the political situation and the steps
made necessary thereby. Doubt on
this point is inadmissable, even if
the Emperor should not open the
Reichstag. Other journals take a
similar view of the subject.
London, Is. = Gerhard Rohlfe
writes the Anti-slavery Society
from Weimar that he arrived OctO-
Der 9th. He has received letters
from Abyssinia authorizing him to
conclude a treaty Of peace with
Egypt. He says he will come to
London in January, and then go to
Cairo. He is persuaded that a last
ing peace can only be made under
the auspices Of the British govern
nent.
st. Petersburg, 15.-Before the
coronation Of the Gar, it was pro-
posed to dispose of all political pris-
eners now in jail. It is estimated
that from fifty to sixty of both sexes
have been implicated in nihilistic
and socialistic propaganda for the
last six years. The first trial will
be of negligent police officials.
Other offenders will be tried in
three patches. Some of the most
deeply implicated will be dealt with
by administrative order without
trial. Arrests are frequently made
throwing light on the dOings of those
already in custody.

LATEST TELEGRAMS.
Torpedo Experiment. - The
Arctic,

Chicago, 15.-T'Gn1eS prints an &C.
count Of the trial yesterday in the
presence of General Grant, Secre-
tary Hunt, Chief Engineers Loring
and Henderson, United States navy,
and a dozen yether distinguished
officers and public men, of Ericson's
new torpedo boat, the Destroyer.
The novel feature of the boat is SUBJ
merged guns, which discharge a
torpedo with uHerring certainty
through the water, 400 feet in three
seconds, with twelve pounds of pow
der. Yesterdays experiment was pro-
nounced a success by all who wit
messed it. It was the fifty-second
time the gun has fired the projec-
tile and at no time since the boot
has been putin working order has
it failed, with same charge,to throw
the torpedo 800 feet in three seconds
Or less. The French officers were
especially interested in the expert
ment, and though they, at first,
pronounced it impossible to operate
a gun constructed on such princi-
Piles and with submerged muzzle
successfully, they were obliged to
acknowledge that the theory had
proved correct as establishment was
depicted in every line Of their
countenances when they saw the
projectile rise to the surface beyond
the target after having traversed
the distance from the muZZle Of the
gun and through the netting with
out making even the faintest ripple
on the surface. A naval officer said
it seems the conclusion of the
experiment given in New York
harbor, dozen such vessels could
successfully defy the combined
navies of the world. 1t seems to
me the key to a complete revolution
in naval constructions. a feet of
cruisers, with a couple of these de-
stroyers on board, ready to launch at
a moments notice, could bid dei-
ance to the most powerfully iron
protected fleet.
The Times strongly discourages
any further attempt to traverse the
Arctic sea by government eXpedi-
tons. A reward offered to Ameri-
can Mhalemen will accomplish more
than the navies of England and
America can accomplish, and it can
be earned with comparatively little
risk, since an attempt will be made
when an exceptionally open summer
gives fair promise Of success.

Gambetsa,s Platform.

Paris, 15.-Gambetta presented
himself with his colleagues in the
Chamber of Deputies, to-day, and
explained the policy of the ministry,
He said: ave desire policy which
will advance, gradually and wisely,
towards reform. Werely on finding
majority which will afford us its
frank support in both chambers,
and upon discipline in' public ser
vice. We propose to reform the
judicial systems, perfect the national
education, and complete the mill
tary legislation. We wish, by
proper means, to extend our COM
mercial relations. We wish to.
strictly follow the provisions of con-
cord, and to maintain peace at home
and abroad. These reforms viii
suffice US, and enable US to reach
more advanced stages of progre IS:
Gambetta, in a speech, to-day, to
the Chamber of Deputies, said
universal suffrage has, for the third
time since 1875, signified a wish to
strengthen the republic and sur
round it with democratic institu-
tions. We have no other programme
than what France herself has.
demanded, namely, constitution
and united governments exc ipt from
all party considerations imposed by
disseLSion and weakness, ever ready
to render to the representatives
of the nation an account of it's
acts, and capable Of imposing on all
degrees of public officials respect,
obedience and work. Government
relies on finding majority which
will afford its frank support in both
| chanbers, and on disciplined public
service with view to insuring re-
forms. Government has testified to
its desire to place, by constitutional
act, one of the essential powers OF
state in more complete harmony
with the democratic nature of our
society. This allusiOH to the senate
was received with applause. After
promising development of the
educational system, he said they
would seek, without impaiTing the
defensive power of France. the best
means Of reducing the land and sea
| forces: endeaVOr to relieve the
! financial burdens upon agriculture :;
fix by treaties an economic regimen
of various III dustries to give greater
impulse to the means of production,
transport and exchange, and the
promotion of rural thrift, insure, by
a strict enforcement of concord,
respect for the established powers,
in relations of the various
religious denominations Of the state
and finally, while protecting polit-
zeal liberties, to maintain with firm
ness, order at home, and with dig
nifty, peace abroad. This series Of
reforms would occupy the full term
of the present legislature. Govern
ment would need the full and Gem
plete confidence of the republican
deputies, which it demanded with
out hesitation, being resolved to
place at the service of the nation al
the possessions Of strength, courage
and activity. Government would
pass, according to the will of the
country, to fresh stage in the path
of progress, which knows no limits
and which lies open to French dem
ocracy. Prolonged cheering fol-
| lowed Gambetta'S statement.
