The water from the Mavhower Jig
ger is running over the ice in the
streets of Bullion, and freezes CON
tinually as it flows. The result is that
although the small boy delirhteth
thereat in the way of skating, all the
dwellings are being blockaded and it
no stop is put to the flow the natives
must soon dig openings through tie
ice into the front doors Of TIE houses.
This state of affairs has aroused the
residents of Bullion to action. AMI
parties are in town to-day TO have a
mandamus issued against the Nav
flower jigger. lee is convenient when
delivered at the front door in summer,
in suitable quantities, but exceedingly
IN convenient when forming a glacier

Chairman Hensel has been sued by
b. f. Wilmoth, detective of Brad
ford, Pa. During the campaign last
year hand bills were circulated through
out the state offeringa reward of $1,000
for the arrest and conviction of any
person violating the election laws. Mr.
Hensel says it is put up job, and de
scribes the matter in this way.
Wilmotb, who calls himself detec.
tive, got several of his associates to
come on from Buffalo. They repre-.
sented themselves as Republicans to a
local tax collector of that party, and
induced him to give them antedated
tax receipts.
"As soon as Wilmoth got one issued
to himself in the name of K. II. John.
son he arrested the tax collect or, who
was indicted and plead guilty, but has
never been punished. Wilmoth claim
ed the $1,000 of me, and | declined to
pay it, maintaining that the offense
was not covered by the offer of the
Democratic State Committee, that the
tax collector had never been punished,
that suspected collusion between the
parties, that the whole scheme was a
game of money making detectives
who did not discover any election
frauds, but simply put up job to beat
the committee out of the reward.

Bradford ! would be sued, but l an
swered that | would not send any one
where feared to go myself. AS soon
as crossed the New York line on my
way here from Erie via Salamanca to-
day was met by Wilmoth with the
writ"

silver and its unlimited coinage as
money and of the present abundant
paper and increasing gold circulation
in this country, the question again pre-
sents itself for the consideration of
Legislators whether the law directing
the monthly coinage of not less than
S2,000,000 worth of silver bullion into
standard dollars should not be modified
or repealed. AT the beginning of the
fiscal year the Mints had on hand 35,.
S95,672 standard dollars the coinage
amounted to S2S,1ll,ll9 and at the
close of the year there were remaining
in the Mints $43,304,j00. The repeal
of the act authorizing the coinage Of
the trade dollar is also recommended.
A considerable number had probably
gone into circulation prior to its de-
monetization in 1876 and probably
from five millions to seven millions are
now held in the country, mostly in the
mining and manufacturing regions of
Pennsylvania and in the vicinity of
New York. While the United States
has incurred no legal liability, never
theless by the act of the government
these coins were at first put into circu-
lation and given compulsory currency,
and many remain in the hands of those
who can i'll afford to suffer from the
depreciation. He says it would there
fore seem to be only an act of justice
to them to permit these coins to be sent
to the mints and exchanged for other
silver coins into which they could be
proftably recoined. The Director be-
lieves that no cause exists for the APP
prehension that large number of ex-
ported trade dollars would be returned
to this country, for those sent to China
have ION account of their greater value
as sycee silver than as coin) been melt
ed or disappeared in the interior of that
country.
The present report contains as usual
the results of the Directors investiga-
tions during the year into the produc-
tion of gold and silver, and its con-
sumption in the arts and manufactur-
es, as well as for the purpose of coin
age. The production of gold for the cur
rent calender year will probably be
S50O,000 less than in 1882, and that of
silver at least S2,000,000 greater,
which will make the production $32,.
100000 gold and nearly $49,O00,0OO
silver. Director Burchard estimates
that the total coin circulation of the
United States on July /, 1883, was
$765, 100000, of which $537, 100000
was gold and $22S,000,O0O silver.

DIRECTOR BURCHARDs VIEWS ON TIE
STANDARD AND TRADE DOLLAR.

III. M. Burchard, the Director of the
Mint, has submitted to the Secretary
of the Treasury his annual report,
showing the operations of the Mints
and Assay Offices during the last fiscal
year, The coinage of the year con.
sisted of oS,666, ,624 pieces, of the value
of S66, ,200,705 The Dumber of pieces
struck was greater by about IL, ,500,-
600 than IN any other fiscal year since
the organization of the Mint Bureau.
Under the provisions of the act of
1878 requiring the coinage $2,000,O0O
worth of silver bullion per month,
Sl54,370, 800 have been coined prior
to October |, 1888, and that amount,
together with the $3l, 100000 of frac
tional silver in the country, making a
grand total of $235,O00,O0O, is, in the
judgment Of Director Burchard, in ex-
cess of the requirements for silver cir
culation. This, he remarks, is appa,
rent from the fact that there are in the
vaults OF the Treasury 39,000,000 stan
dard silver dollars over and above the
outstanding silver certificates and in
addition to nearly S27,O00,0 900 in frac-
tional silver coin, total of $6G,0OO,-
900. The Director adds
My views in regard to the policy of
further continuing the coinage of silver
dollars were expressed in my report
two years ago and remain unchanged.
While believing that the equal coinage
of both metals is desirable, in order to
give greater stability to the values of
commodities aud credits, yet, in view
of our inability to continue the increase
of our silver circulation at the present
rate without ultimately expelling a
large portion of the present stock of
gold, as we'll of the waning hope for
the co operation of leading commercial
nations in securing the general use Of

Riot in Virginia.
FATAL COLOR COLLISION IN TIE STREETS
OF DANVILLE.

DANvnLE, Va, Nov. "A conflict
occurred between a crowd of whites
and colored men last evening, in which
Walter S. Holland, son of c. G. Hol.
land was shot in the head and is sup
posed mortally wounded, and Thos.
Seward, shot in the body. Five ne
groes were killed, and it is supposed
many were wounded. The beginning
of the conflict was the beating by one
of the citizens of a negro, who abused
another negro for apolosizing for an
apparent rudeness and spoke roughly
about the citizen. Some of both col
ors interfered, and pistol was knock
ed out of the hands of one of the white
men and exploded. Just then a report
reached an assembly Of white citizens,
who were in session about political
matters, that conflict was going on in
the street, and they came out in body.
AS both classes formed in separate
crowds, some of each crowd being
armed, number of negroes approach.
ing the white crowd called out
'Shoot, we had as soon settle this
thing now as any other time" Just
then somebody in the white crowd
called "fre," and the firing began. The
negroes returned the fire and ran off,
some firing as they ran. The stores
were closed Immediately, the alarm
bell was sounded, and people came out
with arms. The town sergeant came
out soon after with one of the military
companies and commanded the people
in the name of the commonwealth to
go home, and the streets were soon
cleared. The city is now under the
supervision of one of the military COM
panies and the mounted police and the
town sergeant, in response to a mes
sage from the governor, Offering assis-
tance if needed, has telegraphed that
all is quiet and no further trouble is
apprehended. No arrests have been
made as yet Political excitement has
been growing more and more intense
during the present canvass for members
of the legislature.

In speech at Danyille last Monda,
night, General Beaver in referring tc
S. j. Randall's criticism of the repub
lican party for buying Alaska said thai
he would bring a purchaser who would
give twice the amount paid for the
country any time the United States wa'
tired of it.
BY all means let General Beaver
bring on his purchaser This nation
never needed the annexation of Alaskai
we have never received the interest of
the money invested that country is
without any government or laws and
the churches throughout the United
States are preparing petitions to con-
gress asking that a territorial govern
ment may be established there. Either
civilize and utilize Alaska or sell it,
and if General Beavers man wants 10
at twelve million dollars strike it down
TO him at once, as no body else is like
ly TO want il at that price.

The result of the election held on
Tuesday last, Notwithstanding the loss
Of Pennsylvania, is very favorable to
the democratic party. New York, the
pivotal state in the coming presiden.
tial contest, has given large demo-
cratic majority in spite of the efforts to
divide the party and against most
determined effort of the reunited op-
position to carry the state. The whole
democratic ticket is elected in that
state, except Maynard who was oppos-
ed by the liquor interest. An accept
able democratic candidate for president
will, without doubt, receive the cleo
toral vote of the Empire state.
A tremendous effort was also made
by the republicans to wrench Maryland
from the democratic column. They
spent an immense sum of money to ac.
complish that end and so confident
were their leaders of the success of the
effort that they boasted in advance of
an assured triumph and on the night
of the election telegiaphed that they
had carried the state. The returns
show how terribly they were disap-
pointed. The state gives the usual
democratic majority. New Jersey, too,
proves her fidelity to the democracy
and trebles her last majority for gov
ernor. In the west the republicans
lost heavily in Minnesota and Nebraska
shows strong inclination to fall into
line with the democracy.
But the most gratifying outcome of
Tuesdays election is the defeat of the
corrupt and desperate political trader
and trickster, William Malone, in Vlr,
ginia. For the first time in three years
the Old Dominion has spoken with the
old-time democratic voice. On the
popular vote the democrats carry the
state by 10000 to $4,000 majority and
both branches of the new Legislature
will be democratic with majority on
joint ballot of at least fifteen. This
ends Mahone's career in the United
States senate and renders him poweress
to continue his corrupt barter with the
republicans in that body and with the
Arthur administration. This brings Vir
gina back into the democratic column
for 1884 and winds up the republican at
tempt to capture electoral votes in the
south by dickering and bargaining with
disappointed and scheming politicians,
The general result on Tuesday indi-
Gates beyond doubt the defeat of the
republicans in lS8i.-PRriot.

The Dayton, (O) Democrat says it
is good a thing that the United States
Supreme Court is Republican. II a
Democratic Supreme Court had made
the recent decisions in the civil rights
bill cases the country would not soon
have heard the last of "bydra head Sc.
cessions," estate rights fossils" "Con.
federate treason" DC, DC. Yes, the
5000 New England clergymen and
their descendants, who, in 1850, pc
titioned Congress in effect to dissolve
the Union, would abuse the Court
worse than ever they abused the Jesse
James gang But as eight of the
nine Judges are of the same calibre of
thought, the Court will be treated with
some respect by them. Occasionally a
fanatic will kick the fence down and
advertise his unfitness as clergyman.
The Democratic wing of the clergy
seem to be passive, as usual, on this
political question, and deliver the gos.
pei to their hearers instead of Rad
ical stump speech. 6 Banner.
