A number Of our territorial papers
advocate the appointment OF a com
mission, composed of leading men,
and instructed to go to Washington
thls winter for the purpose Of assist
ing Mr.. Brents i'll urging before Con
gress, the claims of this territory to
the right to be admitted as a state Of
the Union. Whether such commits
sion be appointed OF not, or is author
lied, or where we shall find the uu-
thority, or how their c&penses shall
be paid, or whether il sGajl ba called
a commission, or how ii IS got to3eth
er, matters not, SO that 1ir. Bren1s 30
reinforced by the backing os q dole
cation Of mon of intelligence and
force in the advocacy Of the bill 10
create the State OF Washington. If
anything is to be done hurry It up;
pass around your suggestions quickly
as to the means, methods and persons.
The vote for delegate shows the ter
ritory to be republican. by heavy
majority. This is the strong fact in
the eyes Of the present republican
Congress-; use it strongly, use it
with all your might. The 0re0oaicn,
does not appear to like it, as they of
Oregon DO not want us to have a.state
over here, because state means the
power to defend ourselves. The
Washington Standard does not like
it, because although statehood would
give us the power which it knows we
have SO much needed for self-defense,
yet the Standard is on the minor
ity side in politics. Partisan politics
should give way before this superior
cause of statehood for Washington

LA CONNER Mail: at is proposed
by some Of our contemporaries that
we send a special commission OF Sc
lect men toWashington to assist Del
egate Brents to lobby through Con-
gTess the admission of this Territory
into the Union, and that funds be
raised by county, towns and cities to
pay their expenses. The proposition,
in our opinion, is somewhat impracti-
cable at least the matter of raising
funds. 1t is easy enough to organ
ize your commission OF sable states
men," but the funds to defray their
expenses is quite another thing.
County and municipal corporations
would be debarred by law from ap-
hropriating any funds for the pur-
pose, and we apprehend that a public
subscription would be tedious pro-
cess particularly if the contribu-
ton box should be passed around
throughout the Territory. There is
not much time for the contribution
business, for Congress will meet on
next Monday, and adjourn sine die
on the 4th Of March; so we see no
way Of securing our admission with
any certainty except our able states
men pack their carpet bags" start
for Washington Immediately and pay
their own expenses. If, however,
they do not do this we do not consid-
or that all is lost, for we viii doubt
less be admitted on the merits OF our
case as presented by Delegate
Brents.n
I'VE have yet to learn Of anyone
proposing to have towns or counties
contributing as organizations. The
contributions suggested would be
nom individual citizens in their pri
vate capacity. Ed

ing OF commission to Washington
to aid Delegate Brents in pushing
our radmission into Statehood We
think the plan a good one, and yet,
with the Post-Intelligencer, We be-
heve it impracticable, from the fact
that d great deal Of money would be
needed to maintain a commission in
Washington in proper style. There
is no question but that almost every
voter in Washington Territory, de.
sires to see US admitted as a State,
yet those same parties feel hardly
able to support a commission in

Col. f. b. C. Cash in Fight at Cheraw
COLUMBIA. June 2C

COLUMBIA, June 20.
The absorbing topic Of conversation in
Columbia to day has been the serious per.
.sonal difficulty which is said to have ta-
ken place in Chcraw on last Saturday be.
tween Col. T.. B. G. Cash and Capt. The.
odore f. Malloy.
The story as it is given here, for the
truth of which, however, do not vouch !,
is as follows: On last Saturday Col.
Cash went to Cheraw, and in company
with DIR. Wells and several other friends
went 10 the store of Mr.. Malloy. On
reaching the store Col. Cash went up to
Capt. Malloy, who was present, and ask
cd him if he had said that Colonel Blair,
OF Kershaw, was no better than White
more. Capt. Malloy replied that he had
said 80; whereupon Col. Cash called
him "a damned liar" Malloy at once
struck Cash, and Cash falling over o
plough that was standing in the store
Malloy sprang on top of him. Several
blows were struck by each of the parties,
but friends intcrfered and they were sep
arated.
On Sunday. as the story goes, MIR. w.
B. Cash, Col. Cash's son, went to Cheraw
carrying with him a challenge to fight q
duel from his father to Capt. Malloy
Capt. Malloy declined to receive the
challenge on the ground that the day was
Sunday and not the proper time for max.
ing arrangements for hostile meeting.
On Monday yesterday COL Cash and
his SON went to Cheraw, young Cash on
horseback and Col. Cash on the train.
When the train reached Cheraw Col. Cash
was arrested aa soon as he got off the
train, and was taken before trial justice
who required him to give bond of one
thousand dollars to keep .he peace
Through the influence of his counsel
Gen. w. l.. T. Prince, the amount OF
bond was afterwards reduced to four nun
dred dollars. This bond was given b,
Col. Cash in this amount, and he return
ed home at Cash's Depot in the after
noon.
Efforts were made to arrest youn,
Cash, but the officers were eluded, ant
up to the time my informant left Cher y
he had not been brought before the mag
istrate.
An effort was made by the Rev. E. III
Ruist to settle the difficulty between Col
Cash and Capt. Malioy but, without sue
csss.
A great deal Of excitement prevails il
Cheraw over tho difficulty, and unfortu
} nate consequences are expected to resul
from it.-J c. H., in The Neaos and Cbu
