VOTING FOR PRESIDENT.
importance of timely Legislation
t to the ascertainment and decls
vote for Presidential elector
v called to the attention of tt

The importance of timely legislation with
respect to the ascertainment and declaration
of the vote for Presidential electors was
sharply called to the attention of the peo-
pie more than four years ago. 1t is to be
hoped that some we'll defined measure may
be devised before another national election
which will render unnecessary resort to
any expedient of temporary character for
the determination of questions upon con-
tested returns.
Questions which concern the very existence
of the government and the liberties of the
people were suggested by the prolonged ILL
ness of the late President and his consequent
incapacity to perform the functions of his
office. 1t is provided by the second article
of the constitution, in the fifth clause of its
first section, that In case of the removal of
the President from Office, or of his death,
resignation or inability to discharge the
powers and duties of said office the same
shall devolve on the Vice. President"
What is the intention of the constitu-
ton in it's specification of Inability to dis
charge the powers and duties of said officer"
Is one of the contingencies which calls the
President to the exercise of presi-
Dental functions the inability limited in
its nature to slong continued intellectual in
capacity or has it a broader import? What
must be its extent and duration? How
must its existence be established?
Has the President, whose inability is the
subject of Inquiry, any voice in determining
whether or not it exists, or is the decision
of that momentous and delicate question
confded to the President; Or is it con-
templated by the Constitution that Con-
gress should provide by law, precisely what
should constitute availability, and how and
by what tribunal or authority should it be
ascertainei
If the inability proves to be temporary in
its nature, and during its continuance, the
President carefully exercises the func-
tions the of Executive by what term does
he hold his Office?
Does he continue as President for the re-
mainder of the four year term, or would the
elected President if his inability should
cease in the interval be empowered to re-
sumo his office, aud if having such lawful
authority, he should exercise it, would the
Vice-President be the1eupon empowered to
resume his powers and duties as such ?
can not doubt that these important ques-
tons will receive your early and thoughtful
consideration.
Deeply Impressed with the gravity of the
responsibilities which have SO unexpectedly
devolved upon me, it will be my constant
purpose to cooperate with you in such
measures as will promote the glory of the
country and the prosperity of its people.
(Signed) CHESTER A ARTHUR.

The experiment made by Prof. Hent-
schell, in opening a place where the
best of pictures could be purchased, is
proving success. In addition to many
other things he sells style of picture
known as the Berlin photograph.
These pictures are photographs taken
from the best works of art in the old
world. Everyone cannot own a RAJ
phael or Angelo, but "A photograph of
these great originals is the next best
thing and can be had at low price.
The photograph of good picture is
unco;nparably superior to a bad one.
Why should a man pay SIS for wretch
ed chrome representing some common
place, scene badly drawn and colored
when the counterpart of a picture from
the brush of Hogath Or Dore can be
purchased for s. so. Those who have
not inspected these at Hentsceell's con-
not employ their time better than by
giving him call.

Fashion Platcs for 1881.

Bosko has his fashion plates out for
1881. We hold those plates to be a
sham and a fraud to place the guileless
at the mercy of the tailor. How many
of us look at tho superb pose and gen.
eral tone of the figure in the fishion
plate with clothes that fit to dot, and
think that cur figures will show off a
new suit of clothes just as we'll. 1t lies
not in the power Of TIE tailor, no, not
even the masters of the shears ard
needle at Bosko's to make clothes as
good as are shown in fashion plates.
But the Carson tailors can come as near
to it as anybody.

AuNIrED FIRE DEPARTMENT.
The Eirenen Say That such q Thug is
Impossible.

The proposition to organize Fire
Department under one head meets
with general favor with the citizens
and taxpayers. All favor the plan ex-
cept the firemen themselves. Yester-
day reporter of the APPEAL conversed
with several on the subject. The first
was Warren man.
"Of course,' said he, tia fire depart
ment under one head is the thing we
want, but of course you can't expect us
to mix up with the Swifts and the
Curries. How could we ?''
A Curry man also favored the plan,
but added, allow can we Curry fell
lows mix up with these other COM
panies? We can't do it,
One of the Swifts thought that a
Chief from his company would be JUS t
the thing, shut he'd have to spend most
of his time teaching the Warrens and
Curries how to hold hose butt"
To get these three companies to-
gether in a hall to elect chief would
be like throwing three cats together in
a bag. No property holder would rent
a building for such a meeting with
out having it first insured. There
seems to be an irreconciliable war be-
tween the three companies which will
ever prevent the rival factions from
working harmoniously under one head,
nor would one outside be tolerated for
q moment. 1t might be good plan to
have the foreman of the company first
on the ground, tie the colors of the
company in some CONSPICUOUS place and
have it understood that the foremen of
the company represented by the colors
should command the three companies
for that fire. This plan would cause
the boys to get at the fire alta lively rate
and always insure a leader.

The "Rtoek Report'so Criticism ON the
Affair.

Yesterdays Stock Report has gotten
hold of Hank Monks upset on the
Clear Creek road and thus dilates: "A
dispatch from Virginia says that Hank
Monk had his first upset last Monday.
In driving down from Lake Tahoe, his
coach containing twelve passengers, was
overturned. 1t has been rumored late
ly that Monk had joined the Good Tenn
plars. Ii this is true he may have been
sober, and the accident is thus easily
accounted for. One Of the strangest
things in the world is the immunity
that Hank Monk has enjoyed from acct
dents in his driving. In the days of the
Pioneer Stage Line, he was often so
drunk that had to be lifted up to the
box and the lines placed in his hands,
but when once his fingers clutched the
reins he had perfect command of his
six-horse team, and sent the horses spin
ming down the steep grades and in and
out among the huge prairie schooners
and wagons of every decription with
which the road was lined. His driving
appeared reckless, but was really scien-
tific, and no matter how drunk he was,
he always got to the end of his route
in safety, and during all his career his
driving has never resulted in SO much
az bruise to but one passenger. This
one was Horace Greeley on his famous
ride from Carson to Placerville, which
caused Mr.. Greeley to remark to the
Chairman Of the meeting that he adj
dressed at Placerville that he much
preferred standing position during
the exercises. The story of Mr.. Greeley's
ride was once printed in Nevada
paper, but as it is not familiar to late
corners to this Coast, the Daily Report
will re-publish itat an early day. We
shall print an extra edition. Send in
orders early for copies.

GLEN ALPINE WATER.
The Astonishing Public Demand For 1t.

When Doe Benton first took hold of
the Glen Alpine mineral springs there
were plenty to predict that the water
would never be a success, as it had too
much iron in it and was unpalatable to
the taste. This water is now becoming
one of the most popular mineral waters
on the coast. People are beginning to
realize that it is the pure thing bottled
just where it gushes out of the rocks in
the Sierra and genuine. 1t is not made
of old nails and sulphuric acid, but a
water that comes from the bowels of
the mountains. People who drink it
learn to like the taste and its effects
upon the kidneys and digestive organs
are SO marked that there is no mis-
taking its value as medicine. Ben
toEw is no putting up 10000 bottles
week and the demand is still increasing.

THE CALIFORNIA ASSESSMENT.


The publication of the delinquent list
Of the California mining company occu-
pies eleven columns in the Chronicle.
It contains 10000 names and is the
largest delinquent list ever published
on the coast. The Stock Report gives
a condensed history of the mine: The
mine was segregated from the Con Vir-
ginia in 1874, and was called in the
Board for the first time in September
of that year. During September it ram
ged from S37 to S634 per share. In
October it sold as high as 500, and as
low as So. In November the range
was from $55 to Sis. In December
the excitement over the bonanzas in
creased and the price advanced to $500
per share, $l2O being the lowest price
the stock sold for during the month.
The month of January, 1875, witnessed
the culminetiO of the great bonanza
sensation. Under an almost irrepressi-
BILE demand California stock advanced to
$3.50 per share. At this time Con. Vir-
ginia was selling for 500 per share. In
the same month-January, 1S75,-Cali-
fornia receded to $24O per share and
Con Virginia to $497. In the month of
February California sold as high as $4O4
and as low as $46, the lowest point
reached by the stock during the year
1875. December of rs saw the stock
auctuating from $63} to STA. The
stock did not reach the 500 mark after
1875. AT the time the stock sold above
the 500 mark the shares in the corpo-
ration numbered 10000. The lowest
figure reached by California on the
$4,000 share basis is Go cents, the bed
rock price last month.

A TURF "REMINISCENCES.
A story Of the Late George Birasall.

George Birdsall, the late Chief of
Police who died recently in Virginia,
was man about whom many interest
ing anecdotes are told. Some years ago
he kept livery stable in irginia City
and had partner whose name the
writer has forgotten. They dabbled
considerable in the pool box and invar-
iably lost. Most Of the flyers came from
the Golden State and the California
jockeys were too much for the Comstock-
ers who were unused to the misty
tricks of horse racing. On one occasion
when a big race was coming off the
horses were quartered at Birdsall's
stable and one CT the jockeys stayed
there night and day to prevent any
tampering. One night brilliant idea
struck Birdsall and he let his partner
into the scheme. 1t was to get the
jockey drunk the night before the race
and test the speed of the horses on the
quiet. Everything worked well. They
got on the blind side of the unsuspect-
ing jockey and one night left him in
his stall in a state of stupid intoxication.
Inside of hour they had the two nags
out at Beams race track ready for a
dash. 1t was bright moonlight. Bird
sail rode one and his partner the other
and they gray won easily. Then they
changed horses SO that there could be
no mistake and the gray won easily
both times. BY o'clock in the morn
ing the horses were back in their stalls
and the jockey was none the wiser
The next day Birdsall and his partner
had sold their Ophir and mortgaged
their stable to back the gray in the
pools. They went in some fifteen or
twenty thousand dollars and just before
the race let some of their friends in.
Well, the race came off, and the gray
"Distanced by jove," said Birdsall, as
he turned pale. Then it suddenly
flashed upon him that his partner had
played him false. Nothing was so
scorned by Birdsall as treachery on the
part of a trusted friend and he vowed
to kill the man if he found him on the |
Strangely enough the other
man was also looking for Birdsall with
murderous intent and it took two dozen |
men to keep them apart for couple of
lays. No one to whom Birdsall had |
given point would believe word
against him; they knew his honesty of
I'D. The reason the gray lost the race
presently became known. The Cali
fornia jockey was not drunk at all. A
lew hours before the horses were taken
,It for their midnight ride he had
illed the shoes of the bay horse with
cad, which gave the gray the tenn
,orary advantage on which Birdsall
md his partner had staked all they had
in the world. When Birdsall heard
low he had been duped he simpl y

The Hydraulic Pump.

The Enterprise Of yesterday says :
The hydraulic pump was probably
started up some time last night; if it
did not it will be started up to-day.
Both the east and west sections were
ready to be started yesterday afternoon.
This time they expect to make q go of
it. There appears to be nothing I'M
done that could in any way add to the
strength or efficiency of any part of the
apparatus. According to contract the
pump is to throw 1900 gallons of
water per minute. In order to do tn Is
it must be run at the rate of between
five and six strokes, and we under
stand the idea now is to gradually in
crease the strokes from two per minute
till the pump works up to what is re-
quired of it. In case it goes right along
when the strokes are increased in num-
Der and made of full length, the Savage
folks will take the bulkheads out of

cutting on the 24OO level of the Chol-
