Is Murder IA Crime:

btHNti
By the decision which Chief Justice Beck,
of the Supreme court, made in the Garvey
case, the gallows the prison cell will be
cheated of half dozen mankillers among
them the cannibal Packer, who was to be
hanged at Lake City next Thursday, and Jim
Bush the sporting man who killed Young
man at Leadville several years ago, and
whose second trial is soon to take place in
Buena Vista. The case of Albert Garvey,
who killed a man in Weld county in 1880,
was taken to the Supreme court on writ of
error, after Judge Elliot had sentenced the
murderer to imprisonment for life. Messrs.
Wells Smith 4 Macon some time ago asked
the court for a stay Of proceedings on the
ground that the old murder law had been re-
pealed when the crime was committed and
that man could not be held under the new
law for an offence committed under the old
but Judge Elliot, prcferring to let matter of
so much moment 90 to the Supreme court for
settlement, refused to grant the arrest of
Judgment asked for and sentenced Garvey to
imprisonment for life. The Garvey case has
become more or less famous, and the attor-
neys who have had charge of it have given it
unceasing attention from the time they took
hold of it up to the victorious conclusion to-
day. Chief Justice Becks opinion is not a
surprise to many of the lawyers of the city
who gave the matter careful consideration.
The fault lay in the Legislature, which, in
framing the new law, did not make any pro-
visions for the punishment of crime which
had taken place before, and which might oc-
cur in the interim between the repeal of the
old law and the time at which the new one
would go into force This is another blunder
Of tn. same kind as that which the State law
makers made regarding the law relating to
e1nbezzlement by which young Herschbcrg
was rescued from the penitentary to which
he had been consigned for nine years by Judge
Elliot. There were five or six other convicts
liberated at the time though there was no
question of their guilt.
In his opinion, which is very lengthy,
Chief Justice Beck takes the ground that a
person who committed crime in Colorado
before May 2Sth, 1881, cannot now be tried
and convicted. Acting upon this opinion
Mr.. Macon will have Garyey taken before
Judge Elliot On writ of heabcas corpus and
dismissed. The same action will be taken in
the Packer case, and the Indictment against
Jim Bush will be Disguised on the same
grounds. Had this decision come two weeks
later Packer would have been beyond the
reach of its consolation. As it is, it's one of
the "closest shaves" on record.

fumes, hydraulics, etc. A few years ago n
company was formed by D. 7. Thompson, of
Pekin and Peoria, Illinois, capitalists, who
purchased placer claim situated about three
miles below Telluride, known as the Key
stone A fume was built and hydraulics
placed on the mine, and short though high
ly satisfactory run was made before the
season closed. The San Miguel river furnishes
ample water for the workings of these several
bars, and the short run of the Keystone
plainly demonstrates the fact that the gravel
is quite rich in gold. Working on small
scale, such as ground sluicing, etc, gives fair
returns, and there is no room for doubt that
when extensively worked handsome profits
will be realized from the San Miguel placers
The Keystone will soon resume operations,
and will be steadily worked throughout the
season. Other important claims upon which
were placed machinery last year, and which
will be run this season, are the keokuk,
Willow Creek, st. Louis, and several others
with which the writer is unacquainted.
The developments of the past year have
clearly established the fact that in the very
near future, placer mining will become one
of the more important industries of this most
favored section. Repeated tests have been
made from time to time, and capitalists have
become satisfied that million of dollars worth
of this precious mineral await those who
have the means to erect machinery for work
ing the mines, and the enterprise to work
them. Several thousands were spent in 1882
in building fumes and placing machinery,
all, or the greater part, of which vii soon be
put in operation. Weshall endeavor, dr ing
the summer, to visit each claim between
Telluride and the mouth of the San Miguel,
and hope to be able in the fall to obtain the
exact amount produced. And we predict a
showing of figures that will astonish the
world.

Railroad matters in this neck of the woods
are very quiet at the present time, even Dame
Rumor having ceased her incessant gossip.
The Denver & Grande after having surveyed
several lines in this vicinity, have withdrawn
their surveyors, leaving the matter of their
intention in a state of uncertainty that is
embarrassing at the least. Mr.. Bryants
party is now running line up the Taylor
river from Gunnison to Tin Cup. While
here they surveyed line from Delta up the
Gunnison river to the coal fields of North
Fork, and another one from Colorow to the
Grand Canon of the Gunnison.

Grand Junction and Delta are evidently
about to be left on the first Touring mill on
the Reservation. Messrs. Clark and Mccall
visited the three towns on the Reservation
with view of putting up mill, and have
decided to locate in Montrose, that place of.

this place that they would locate at Montrose.
A year will not roll around before Delta will
have a Touring mill iirst-class in every re-

not be raised this year on the Reservation,
but will next. Delta county will raise wheat
enough and more to supply II large mill.

England and Mexico.

According to the London Daily
News, England is becoming alarmed
at the progress which Americans are
making in Mexico. In commenting
upon the visit of British Consular
Agent to that country to investigate
the state Of trade and the opportuni-
ties offered for an increased importa
ton OF English goods, the Daily News
asserts that as soon as Washington and
the City of Mexico are connected by a
railroad Mexico will become Deepen
dent upon the United States. 1t is
even understood in London that Mex
leo is anxious TO induce English capt.
talists and merchants to establish
houses in that country as a coun-
terpoise to the influence of the
United States. The article referred
to points out the great disadvantage
under which England at present la
bors, not having any diplomatic rep
resentative in Mexico. 1t seems to be
next to impossible to obtain correct
returns of imports or exploits, particu-
larly as the Mexican official returns
are, like everything else Mexican,
several years in arrears. During the
past twelve years Eng ish trade with
Mexico has been almost stationary,
while it has enormously increased
with neighbOring countries, such,
for instance, as Guatemala, Costa
Rica, and the United States of
Columbia. This, of course, is not
due to the poverty of Mexico, for
within the last few years her trade
with the United States and Germany
has swelled to considerable propor>
tions. 1t is also pointed out that
although since Mexico threw off the
Spanish yoke she has passed through
no less than go revolutions, yet Of
late years she has had an unexampled
immunity from pronunciamentos.
From the tone of the English press
it is evident that a renewal of diplo
matte relations with Mexico would be
popular at the present moment, At
tention has been drawn more than
once to the fact that the merchants of
other countries, having representa-
tives to whom they can apply for pros
ton, advice and assistance, are able
to compete on advantageous terms
with Englishmen, who may have their
property destroyed by brigands with
out being able to demand satisfaction
from the government.
