WILLIAM g. SEAMONDS.
He Is Not Engaged In KObbing the PEG.
pie Of this County.

Last Saturday the ZINES pub
lished the following:
VIM. G. Seamonds, Deputy Assessor
is going around town, trying to see how
much he can rob people out of, in the
name of the county. He claims to be
assessing taxable property.
When the above was written Mr.
Seamonds was sitting close to the
editors desk, assessing the TINES
Office, and it was read to him as q
joke. He laughed over it, thereby
apparently enjoying it as much as
the writer. He said jokingly that
he had trouble enough in assessing,
without having the newspapers at
tack him too We did not under.
stand him to make any decided OBJ
lection to the publication of the
item. Several persons who saw it
in the TINES, in this city, said at
once that it was simply a 'josh,'
and commented upon it in that
strain.
When the TINES was read in Belle
vue, however, some of Mr.. SeamonGs' S
friends took decided exceptions to it,
and claimed that it was an open and
intended slur upon Mr.. Scamonds.
1t therefore becomes necessary fol
the TINES to make the above simple
statement Of facts. II, after this
anybody still charges that the above
is siur on Bill Seamonds, he ough,
to be run through a threshing ma
chine.

Days.
The sampling machinery shipped
to this place by L. r. Jones, the
we'll known banker, left Blackfoot
about 10 days ago, and is expected
here within five days. No location
has been fixed for it as yet, as it will
depend upon the location of the de-
pot. AS soon rs the depot site is
settled upon, however, the mill will
be erected
Although Mr.. Jones purchased
the machinery and will erect the
works, he does not intend to run it
himself, or that it shall be connected
with tae bank. in any way. Eph.
Daft, the assayer. will either lease it
or make SEINE other arrangement by
which he will have full charge and
control of it. The mill will cost be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000, and viii
have crushing capacity Of thirty
tons per dap.
Once the mill is in operation, pros
pectors and miners will be able to
realize on their ores within a few
hours Of their delivery at the works
This will greatly facilitate matters,
as at present from 80 to As days is
required to get cash returns for all
ores shipped.
The works will be conducted as all
frst-class sampling works are Ore
sellers can take their own samples,
have them assayed by their own as
sayers, and obtain full value.

The DEADLOCK is virtually ended,
and of course Mackey, smirched with
the most disreputable forgery and
fraud Of the record upon which he
claims a scat will be admitted by the
majority. This was accomplished by
an arbitrary ruling of the speaker,
which allowed the rules Of the House
to be changed by a majority vote to
suit the case. The rule upon which
the Democrats acted was one drawn
up by General Garfield, and served
the purposes Of the Republicans dur
ing the time they were in the minority
as protection against any oppressive
acts Of the majority made in the heat
of contending interests, and 50 re-
spectcd by the Democrats. In this
manner the Republicans triumph now,
but their triumph may be counted for
grief hereafter Precedeuts made TO
facilitate the accomplishment Of wrong
iul acts, may be troublesome and
annoying under a change Of circum.
stances. These violent proceedings on
the part Of the Republicans is not in.
splrcd only for the purpose Of seating
men in Congress who were not elected
by the people, but is to open the door
for swarm Of lobby jobs, now ma
tured and maturing, which they could
not venture upon without bridling the
minority. Amongst these outrages
upon the rights Of States and public
propriety is the admission Of Dakota
as a State. The following protest to
the proceedings Of the majority, signed

GEs. CURTIS, who n Treasurer of
the Republican campaign fund, was
indicted in the United States Court of
New York for levying political as
sessments upon public officials, has
been convicted by New York Jury.
This illegal plunder has been a general
practice of the Republican bosses, and
formed no inconsiderable part of their
means of raising the immense sums
by which to purchase party success at
elections. The verdict of the New
York jury is timely one and may
serve as a warning to partisan bosses
and others that the independent SEN
timent of the country are beginning to
look with disfavor upon these viola
tions of the statutes-these demands
upon the fears of persons who happen
to be in public as we'll as private em-
ployment, subject TO prescription and
dismissal ifthey fail to acceed to the
oppressive requirements of assessment
committees. It also furnished one
feint glemmer of hope al least, that
the "stand and deliver" principle of
Republican politics is beginning to as.
sumo somewhat dangerous aspect,
and may inspire their victims with
sufficient independence to Judge for
themselves the amount, ifany. they can
or ought to abstract from their private
resources for political purposes. They
have not had this privilege, and the
Republican Congressional committee
have Just issued their circular demand
