The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1881-11-08

The expectation of live stock and
fresh meat ever the Atlantic was never
so active as'at present. The Iowa, the
Victoria, the Toronto, the Manitoba,
the Campania, the Bulgaria, and the
Mississippi landed in one week alone,
recently, at Liverpool, between them
6,2l0 head of live stock for butchers
purposes. while seven other steamers
landed 5,OS2 carcasses of frozen beef,
and over 600 carcasses of mutton.
These carcasses, purchased in America
for 7 cents the pound, were sold for 10
cents the pound. The attempts re-
Gently made by some London firms to
get up corner came to nothing, not on
account of the perishable nature of the
article so much as on account of the
widely distributed competition, and the
impossibility of getting the Ring suffi-
GENTLY extensive to cover the whole
market.
The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1881-11-08

The close confinement of all factory
work gives the operatives pallid faces,
poor appetite, languid, miserable feel
ings, poor blood, inactive liver, kidney
and urinary troubles, and all the ply
sicians and medicines in the world can
not help them. unless they get out OF
doors or use Hop Bitters, the purest
and best remedy, especially for such
cases, having abundance of health, sun
shine and rosy cheeks in them. They

THE POSTAL SERVICE.

The official estimates of the amounts
which will ber required for the postal
service during the next fiscal year, has
been transmitted to the Secretary of
the Treasury. They foot up S43. 6el,-
300, of which amount it is estimated
that the revenues of the service will
furnish S42, 74l,722 05, leaving def
cheney to be supplied from the Treasury
of S920,077 50. Last Winter Congress
appropriated $2 l52, 25S, as an estimat-
ed deficiency for the current fiscal year
The actual excess af postal expend-
lures over postal receipts for the fiscal
year preceding, ending June 80, 1880,
was 50, 7S6, 34l o.. The estimates for
the coming fiscal year include the fol-
lowing as their principal items: For
compensation to postmasters, S., $780,
600; clerks in postoffices, "a, 235, 600;
letter carriers, $1,000, 600; railroad mail
transportation, $l0,655, 900; steamboat
mail transportation, $500, 600; Star SER
vice, 81, $50, 600; railway postal car SER
vice, 4,526, 600; special facilities Oh
trunk lines, $500, 600; railway mail
clerks. agents, messengers, &C., "a, 2O0,-
900; transportation of foreign mails.
$500, 600; postage stamps, l09, 400:
stamped envelopes, &C., S547, 900; post
al cards, 242,OO0. The estimate for
Star service is $3.50, 900 less than the
amount appropriated by Congress for
that object for the carrent year, and
the estimate for steamboat service is
$4,000 less than the corresponding
appropriation for that purpose. Other
large items in the estimate exceed the
amounts appropriated for the current
fiscal year, as follows: railroad mail
transportation, 81, l66,7lS; compensa
ton to postmasters, 500, 600; clerks in
postotfices, 1886, 900; letter carriers,
$500, 900; railway mail service EN-.
ployes. $4,000.

JOHN SHERMAN AND THE SILVER BILL.

In February, 1873, Congress passed
what is known as the "Silver Bill, "
over the veto of r. b. Hayes. John
Sherman, then Secretary of the Treasu-
ry, predicted that the passage OF the
bill would create financial ruin. To
fulfill his prophecy he used his i'm
mense influence as Secretary of the
Treasury against silver. He prevailed
upon the converted rebel Postmaster
General to issue an order to postmas-
ters, to refuse trade dollars for postage
stamps, and did everything in has
power to prejudice the people of the
East who were accustomed to paper
money, against silver coins. He went
farther than this with the National
banks, which have been his special
pets, and entered into an alliance with
the New York Clearing house, which
represents the banks, to make common
cause against silver. This clearing
house declares that it will not receive
silver coin, nor silver certificates, in
settlement of balances from individuals,
corporations, or the Government. The
report of the United States Treasurer,
just published, says that, under an
arrangement between the Treasury and
the clearing house, ali payments made
by the Treysury to that institution, ag-
gregating s275, 900, 900 year, must be
made in gold coin, or in United States
notes. Standard dollars are not re-
.ceivable under its rules, although silver
certificates are now being paid to 1T to
some extent in lieu of gold coin, for use
in payment of custom duties" Here it
is shown that the Secretary of the
Treasury conspired with the clearing
house managers to nullify the Act of
Congress making silver dollars a legal
tender. These managers refuse to take
those standard dollars, even from the
Government, in settlement of balances,
and their refusal was sanctioned by
John Sherman. In plain words, an in
stitution doing business in the United
States, and with the Government to the
extent of 1915, OO0, 600 annually, sets
itself above the law, and will not take
as legaltender what the law makes
such. The banks and corporations are
running the Government, and nulbfy
an Act of Congress at will, and sworn
officer of the Government encourages
them to do so, because they contribute
literally to campaign expenses, to keep
such men as Sherman in office.

A vein of what is supposed to be a
new metal is said to have been found in
digging well near Battle Creek, Mich.
The lind is ia a stratum OF rock about
twenty-eight feet below the surface.
Pieces OF some of the nuggets taken
out, it is said, have been melted up,
and have all the appearance OF the best

to the metal it corrodes, showing that

1t is not known what metal it is, and

were fined SIS and COTS each, aad sent
to the county work house. This makes
five of this class of individuals who
have been similarly disposed of within
the past week. There are more yet
who could be spared without any less
to the city.
Quite representation Of the colored
populs t on was attracted to Justice

ored. 1t is very common saying in
| afffays between men that there was
q woman in the ease.n This time the
order was reversed and 1t "was a ma n
in the case" 1t seems that the pros
ecutrix was charged with trying t. es-
TRANCE, or at least divide the affections
OF Matt. Rose, husband Of tie
prisoner. The scene of action was in
the market house Saturday, when the
two met by accident. and Mollie made
the accusation against Fanny, and, &C.
| cnrdipp tn the prosaeutor's evidence
began to hurl.a deafening volley of cpl
thets which would sound rather harsh
on the ear polite.
Fanny, after taking it for time
began to show fight, and made for bel
assailant. But Mollie is rather
on the burly, stout order, while
Fannie is frail specimen
of the ''weaker vessel" consequently
Mollie turned in and got her rival
down, got upon her with her knees
and, according to Fanny's story, wa
giving it to her at lively rat, whil'
the by-standers laughed and said lie
