-FRoM the way the Eastern press

State it would appear that there is
not mine within our boundaries
worthy of note. Nevada to-day is
holding her own with other bullion
producing States, and it will not be
long before she will again be at the
head. These Scientific Journals that
are being published, as they claim in
tho interest of the mines of the
county, are merely printed for the
sake of making money out OF their
advertising columns. 1t makes very
little difference to them whether the
news they publish is reliable or not.
They clip from their exchanges a few
items in regard to the mines tina: are
doing the largest business, and these
items are invariably taken from pa
pers published in camps where the
mining companies purchase their
supplies from the advers sers in said
Mining and Scientific Journals. THIS
is business for them, of course, but 1t
would look little batter were they
to. occasionally note some of the
bullion shipments made from our
State, and not give US the go-by on
all occasions.

ANOTHER lswless execution
has followed the failure of "a jury to
return verdict in accordance with
the law and the facts. Fncarnacion
Garcia killed Rafael Merival under
circumstances which would have per-
mitted no doubt of mis- punishment if
the people had felt any confidence in
the Administrative OF the law. But
the jurys verdict in the Majors case
had impaired their confidence to such
Q degree that the services of no jurors
were required in the next murder case
that occurred in that State-Califur
mir. However much we may regret
such proceedings, they must he con

fsilure of the law to do its duty. A
series OF these failures 10 any new
country will be followed BY action
by the people. The Judges, lawyers
and jurors who denounce mob law
should first denounce the loose legal
methods which turn criminals loose
upon society to repeat their crimes.

THE Poughkuepsie EAGLE.

-THE Poughkeepsie Eagle, in
an article on show Mistakes Hap.
pen in Newspapers" figures up the
number of type used in newspaper
the size of the Eagle at 600, 900; that
is, the actual number of bits of metal
arranged for each newspaper in pre-
pairing newspaper of that size for
the press. We suppose few people
think of the printing trade as one o!
the most exact and particular handi
crafts, but it is. In making type,
variations that might be allowed 10
the finest machinery would render
type useless. 1t is very rarely that
the type furnished By two separate
founderies can be used together with
out great deal of trouble, even though
they should try to make it after the
standard. We read once In while
of a wonderful piece of cabinet or
mosaic work, containing ten, twenty,
or fifty thousand pieces, the maker of
which has spent months, or even years
of labor 10 producing it, and the peo-
pie go to see it as curiosity but the
most elaborate and carefully fitted
piece of work Of this kind eyer made
does not compare, for miuu,eness of
detail and accuracy of fitting, with
that which the printer docs every day.
The man who does the first is looked
upon as a marvel of skill, and, if
hundred of his pieces are put in wrong
side up or around, it is not noticed in
the general effect; but If the printer,
in fitting ten times as many pieces to
gether in single day, puts one the
wrong way everybody sees it, and is
amazed at the "stupid carelessness of
those printers.

HIGH LICENSE.

The temperance question is begin
ming to cut quite a figure in Ameri-
can politics. The election in Ohio
last year was fought out over the
Pond law, somewhat probationary
measure, and resulted in the defeat of
the Republicans. Thousands of Dem
ocrats voted for the Republican tick
OF, but great many more thousands
of Republicans voted against their
own natural ticket on account OF the
championship OF the Pond law by the
Republicans as party. The question
again comes up this year, but in
modified form centering upon the
principles contained in what is term
ed tho Scott law, which licenses but
does not prohibit. The Republicans
support it, and the Democrats will
oppose. The Republicans of Illinois
have pushed through the so.called
Harper bill, similar in its provisions
to the Ohio Scott law, and in hopes
of "catching votes" the Democrats
oppose it. Portland, Oregon, held
municipal election Monday, the ques-
tion oeing high license or low license.
The Sunday law legislation of the
Republicans materially aided in the
defeat of their party in California
last Fall. 1t is possible that the Re-
publicsns of Ohio and Illinois have
undertaken task too difficult to per.
form, but should they succeed, they
will find that the result will be about
what Nevada has experienced by Ii
csnslng gambling-the higher the Ii.
