1.-THE law compels the Treasury to
coin 100000 per month Of these

pose Of commerce; but commerce, wiser
than Congress, rejects the inferior
dollar, and will have nothing to do
with it. It demands the dollar of
commerce; the dollar Of the world,
which is the gold dollar Hence these

documents recently published, are, that

Saturday, the 4th inst, was observ-
ed as holiday in San Francisco and
other cities in California, in accordance
with the proclamation of Governor
Perkins, for the purpose of expressing
public sentiment on the bill to sup
press Chinese immigration now before
Congress. The demonstration in San
Francisco was on a grand scale, and
long before the appointed hour Flats
Hall was packed with the best citizens
of the city, while crowd Of over
thirty thousand persons surged about
the stands erected for speakers on
Montgomery and Pine streets. The
preamble and resolutions prepared for
the occasion were adopted. These
resolutions re-a firm the unauswerable
arguments heretofore made by the PEG
pie of San Francisco in their petitions
to Congress for relief, and that, laying
asi lie all social and religious distinc-
tons, they unite as one man, as one
people, as loyal and aw-abiding citi
zens of the Republic, in urging upor
Congress the absolute necessity fo1
speedy and effective Legislation pursu
ant to the terms of the recent treaty
with China, and restricting and con
trolling Chinese immigration. The eli
forts of the Senators and Representa-
tives to present the question of Chi
nese immigration to the country as O
vital Importance were approved, and
copy of the resolutions was telegraph
ed to them at Washington.

The vein is averaging IL feet in width

From the bottom of the shaft there

Death Of ~Uncle, John Thomas.

Democrat: Uncle" John Thomas,
an old-time and popular stage driver,
was found dead in his bed at Duncan's
ferry, on the Silver road, on Friday
morning, 10Th inst, at which station
he had been taking care of stage stock
for several months past. His death
came from natural causes, probably
heart disease. John was sixty years
of age, and had followed the occupa-
ton of driving stage for thirty-four
years. He came from California twelve
or more years ago, and employed on
the different routes since that time was
well knowu to the travelling public of
Idaho. He drove on Camas prairie
last summer, but enfeebled with the
inGrmities of age and no longer able
to endure the hardship in the winter
season. Mr.. HALEY gave'him the light
er Job of hostler. We know nothing
of the early history Of Uncle John any
more than he was once one Of the pro
prietors Of stage line in Iowa, anc
in good circumstances. He was faith

ported to be the substitute, to the
bedrock fume bill introduced in Con-
gress. One of the articles goes on to
show the advantages of bedrock fume
the field of labor and wealth it will
open to Boise county We find no
fault with this view ofthe case. This
enterprise, should it be carried on with
the interests of the miners properly
guarded, would increase the prosperity
of this as well as Ada county. The
writer of the other article flies into
desperate rage-shows his teeth and
barks and growls ferociously. He
says the World fought the original
bill, but announced itself in favor of a
fume, first, last and all the time. That
is correct. And can the writer truth
fully say that the WORLD has ever
went back OH this? The writer raves
because we did not publish the amend
ed bill. If he will read our article
carefully lie will find that those sec
lions that are claimed to have been
amended, were given, and we found
no fault except that we did not be-
lieve the bill had been introduced, nor
that it is the intention to introduce it;
and further stated that Boise county
places no reliance in anything that
emanates from the bedrock fume COM
pany. We had good grounds for those
remarks, and stick to them. The
fume company has steered so far off
from the straight line of ve.acity from
the start that no one in Boise county
places any reliance in word they say
in relation to the bedrock hume bust
ness. If they actually mean business
now, and have given up their well
planned robbery scheme as too baG
a job to get away with, and intend tc
work for the bill as amended, or rather
as is claimed it has been amended
