WILL BE APPEALED.

By reference to our San Francisco dis.
patches this morning it will be seen that
the Miners Union intend to appeal to the
Supreme Court. The ground of this action
is the allegation that until the Supreme
Court has affirmed Judge Temples decis.
sion it cannot be made the basis of def.
mite arrangement. The Miners Union
also suggest that the proposal for a com.
promise should come from the victorious
side. A dispatch from Marysville yester.
day morning indicated disposition on the
part of that community to enter into such
an agreement as the RECORD UNION has
already proposed. The Wheatland farmers
on their part have made haste to express
dissatisfaction with Judge Temples decis-
sion, and to declare that they will not
accept any proposition of the kind. They
also say that they will be satisfied with
nothing less than the complete publication
of the river. This would involve the
stoppage of all mining drift, quartz and
seam, as well as hydraulic-and they
will certainly not be sustained by the
people of California generally in SO extrav-
agant position. It is to be regretted that
they should have acted with SO much haste
and so little reflection, for when the sober
second thought comes we believe they
will perceive the desirability of accepting
the protection and the advantages which
the law has given them the more particu.
larly since Judge Temple has taken po-
sition which is very unlikely to be mod.
flied by the appellate Court. Notwith-
standing their present attitude, in short,
we shall continue to entertain hopes that
they may be brought to more temperate,
sensible and conciliatory frame of mind,
and that they will ultimately consent to be
satisfied with the protection of their prop
erty, and will relinquish the thought of
pushing the hydraulic miners to ruin, un-

UTAH.
The Utah Commission An Indignant
Newspaper.

SALT LAKE, June 16th.-The tribune,
after speaking favorably Of the men appointed
on the Utah Commission, says at the same
time the nomination of this Commission is
slight and reproach to Utah. To ignore a
whole people, to not be able to find one man
in Utah who in the Presidents estimation
worthy to be named on this Commission,
is simply proof that in the narrow estima-
low order Of intellect and of integ-
rity. It is the same feeling which in
the East caused the men in Congress
and those creatures who are given control Of
corporation press, to refer to the solemn
petition Of $50, 900 voters OF California as
simply +" a sand-lot manifesto" 1t is a little
hard to bear this assumed superiority of
people who, while strong in the aggregate,
individually are so weak that it would take
thousand of them to supply manhood enough
for one gray. shirted miner of the West but
do not doubt but President Arthur
has done what he thought was best with one
Jack Mormon adviser in his Cabinet, and
one man who knows nothing bat the tricky
side Of politics, and who in every appoint
ment seeks to place support where it will
be convenient to rest upon when the labor Of
putting up Conventions two years hence will
have to be done. We understand all this
but when a petition signed by the foremost
men of the Territory, and backed by
Senator and Judges of the Supreme
Court Of the United States, asking for
an appointment on the score of eminent
worth, stainless integrity and full KNOW
edge both Of the law and of the facts, is con-
temptuously ignored, it would be cowardly
not to say that the people here who have the
greatest direct interest in this business, and
those whose voices ought to have the most
weight, feel that they have been personally
and uujustly sighted, and that the President
of the United States has served notice upon
the country that in his estimation there is
very little difference between the men here
who are trying to uphold this republic and
those others who are trying to tear it down.

COTTON (San Bernardino county,. June
16th.-Last evening about $50, while An
drew Potter and A. Carlson were returning
from the grocery store of L. Russisk, in Aqua
Mansa, to their camp on the Santa Ana river,
about one mile from here, they were met
by two men, who commanded them
to throw up their hands. one OF the
robbers az the same time showing q
revolver in Potter's face, who struck at
him. The highwayman discharged his pistol
into the face of Potter. the ball taking effect
on the left temple, passing out back of the
left ear, Knocking him down, and while down
shooting at him twice, both times the balls
passing Close to bis breast, but infiicting no
further injury to Potter. At the same time
the other highwayman commenced shooting
at Carlson, the frs shot hitting him over the
temple, producing scalp wound, knocking
his pistol at Carlson, the highwayman
shot his own pal, who was shooting
at Potter, the ball taking effect in tie
left side, passing through his body aud pro.
ducing mortal wound. Potter succeeded
in reaching his camp, while Carlson, who
was but slightly wounded, returned to the
store and gave the alarm, and returned
with posse of men, who
found the wounded highwayman lying
where the shooting occurred. Under Sheriff
Baylis placed him under arrest and took him
still at large but the authorities are confident
that he will be captured, as both are well
known to the officers. The railroad men
were paid off only an hour before, SO it is
evident that the Williams knew that Potter
and Carlson had money on them.

BIsMARcK's FISCAL MISTAKES.

Prince Bismarck is of late foundering in
a very sea of fiscal blunders, and as he
grows older his financial crotchets become
more extravagant. The Reichstsg has just
emphatically rejected his most audacious
and enormously foolish and suicidal project
for monopoly OF the tobacco trade by the
State. He was actually prepared to ruin
Bremen and to plunge thousands of citi.
zens elsewhere into bankruptcy, in order
to adopt a system which would have
strengthened the Social Democrats i'm.
mensely, and at the same time have weak
ened not only the present government but
all governments in Germany. 1t is really
nothing less than wonderful that Bismarck
should not have seen, or, seeing, should
have ignored, this most dangerous phase of
the experiment. Here are the Social
Democrats advocating a patent plan by
which Paternalism in government is to be
established, and everybody is to be coerced
into being happy, and independence is to
be administered by democratic police,
and equality is to be enforced at the point
of the bayonet and Bismarck undertakes
to give new life and consistence to the
movement by adopting its principal doc
trines and giving them the Endorsement Of
the Government. Has he forgotten that
the teachings of the Encyclopedias, which
were so popular at first with the French
Court and Nobility, finally led up to the
Revolution which swept Court and Nobil-
ity away? How long does he think it
would be after his death before the Social.
Democrats, re enforced by his example,
found the means to carry his presidents
q great deal further than he has ever
dreamed of? The fact is that if the to-
bacco monopoly had been forced upon Ger
many the Government would in short
time have found itself powerless to oppose
the schemes OF the Social Democrats, for it
would have joined them in effect. At
present Bismarck is striving desperately to
pTOttCliNc ulcdsuISc, alS
already producing great dissatisfaction, and
which have served to weaken his reputa.
ton greatly. All he can do, however, is to
point to the example of the United States,
and unless the members of the Reichstag
are as ignorant of American statistics as ne
himself appears to be, his opponents ought
to make that infelicitous reference very
awkward for him. The truth is that his
internal policy has been for some time a
succession of monstrous blunders. He has
gone to Canossa, in spite of his boast, and,
what is more, he has gone there for no
consideration. He has given up every
thing, and has received literally nothing in
return. He has tinkered with the rev.
enues until he has produced depression in
trade and general dissatisfaction. He has
proposed the most fatuous and ruinous
measures. And when these are rejected he
seems incapable of anything but abusing
his opponents. 1t is to be feared that he
is preparing very troublesome period for
his and his masters successors.

SAN FRANCISCO ITEMS

| Samuel Barclay Martin Phelps, the in
FAINT son of Lieutenant Phelps, U. S. N,
| died in the Twenty sixth-street Hospital,
Thursday, of smallpox.
Frank Smith, hackman, was thrown
from his mack on Market street last We'd
nesday night, and he sustained dislocs-
tion of one of his ankles.
A communication has been fled with the
Supervisors by r. A. Robinson and w. M.
Rider, representing the First Spiritual
| Union of this city, asking that the word
" clsirvoyant" be stricken from the license
order, and that the word medium" be not
added as proposed by an amendment. The
communication states that these two classes
hold the same relation to Spiritualism that
priests and ministers do to other religions,
and therefore should not be taxed or
classed with astrologers and fortune.tellers.
| Charles Lux, one of the executors of the
will of Michael Reese, has filed with the
! County Board of Equalization a protest
| against an assessment OF $3.50, 900 for per-
sonalproperty in San Francisco, stating that
the estate is already assessed in San Mateo,
and that it has not personal property in
this city exceeding q valuation of 500.
John L. Buckley, agent of S. w. Levy,
called attention to an error by which an
assessment of Sal, 900 was carried forward
from the real estate to the personal prop
erty column.
John Connolly, who resides at No. 26S
Stevenson street, was in his room dressing
himself Thursday afternoon, when Grip
pie who has had both legs amputated be-
low the knees entered the room and asked
him what he was doing there. Connolly
replied, "Don't you see Pm dressing my
self? You'd better go out;" and imme-
diately thereupon the cripple stabbed him
in the abdomen. The cripple, whose name
is Thomas Francis Mcmahon, was arrested
by officers T. L. Tobin and Quad, and
charged with assault with intent to commit
murder. The wounded man was conveyed
to the Receiving Hospital, where his injury,
which is painful but not dangerous, was
dressed. Mcmahon has served term in
prison for having several years ego shot at
woman who refused to marry him, and
he has also been in prison several times for
drunkenness.

took fare, but it is charged the fares
turned in ct the Office by Finch at the end
OF each trip were short, and in many in

found that he rang bell upon the taking
of each fare. 1t being desired to get pos
session of the beli-ringing device, whatever
it might be, the officer arrested Finch at

in his fares for the trip, and found in his
pocket harmonica with small bell or
gong attachment, such as is exposed for
sale in toy bazaars. The tone Of the gong
corresponds to that OF the bell. punch, and
is supposed to have been rung from the
prisoners sleeve while he pretended to
punch his fare slip, although Finch claims
that he simply used it as an accompani-

commerce. No doubt Mr.. John Roach
and plenty of other people can be induced
to build and run lines of steamers any
where if the Government will pay them for
doing SO. But will Mr.. Chandler tell US
what advantage there could possibly be
in such an arrangement to the people OF
the United States The latter certainly
do not want sham foreign trade. They
have no object in cheating themselves
with fictitious commerce. They want to
be able to make money by buying and SELL
ing abroad, and they cannot do that by
subsidizipg vessels. The only sound and
healthy trade is that which is self-sup-
porting. In this case, however, Congress
first ties the legs and arms of commerce,
and then goes about seeking means
whereby it may be made to go. The way
to solve this problem is to cut the bonds
which restrain it. Then it will need no
machinery to urge it along, and no Gov
eminent subsidies to bolster it up from
behind.
Mr.. Chandler says that we can beat Eu'
rope in manufacturing goods. Very well,
but what is the use of our superior ability
if, when the goods are manufactured, we
cannot sell them abroad? Really the talk
of the protectionists about foreign trade is
puerile in the extreme. They first hamper
and tie up commerce, and then they
complain that it does not prosper. 1t is
suffering from their ignorant and perverse
tinkering, and from nothing else, and If
they could only be persuaded to take their
meddling hands off it, everything would
90 on well. But it is safe enough to pre-
dict that we shall not have navy or a
respectable foreign trade so long as those
who are at the head of affairs refuse to
recognize the true nature of the difficulties
against which they are contending so
uselessly. The official folly which has
wasted two hundred millions in ten years,
and has not produced single effective ves-
sci in all that time, cannot be trusted TO
do any better in the future. The whole
system of ship-building must be reorgan.
lied before there can be any hope of a
practical outcome, and unfortunately that
is what Secretary Chandler appears to
have no idea of. He can bewail the de-
cadence of the navy, but he cannot sug-
gest any way by which it shall be restored
to its former prestige. This is discourage
ing, and we are disposed to think that the
people will presently insist upon return
to business methods by those who control
the Government, or, in default of improve
ment on their part, revolution in the
management of public affairs. For assur-
eddy the incompetence which is the chief
characteristic of all navy yard performances
will not and cannot be tolerated much
longer.

SYMPATHY FOR CRIMISALs.-My obser-
walton has led to the conclusion that the
motives usually are essentially coarse and
common place, and the criminals worthy of
very little sympathy. have not been
fortunate enough to meet with any lovely
females who have drowned their infants or
poisoned their parents from high and
praireworthy motives; nor have | met,
standing in the dock of the Old Bailey,
forms that would have graced the circles Of
fashionable society. DO not mean to say
that many who are seen in that position
have not been brought to it by series of
circumstances that may make them well
worthy OF the pity Of rhilanthropist
but little remains, when they have BIOS
somed into this state, that ID calculated to
Command admiration. Ballantine.
