AS theSp M. wcst-bound train on the
Texas Il Pacific road was passing Pearl
street Sunday night, some vile character
fired shot at 1t, which struck the express
car. The police secured that neighbor-
hood, but failed to get any trace of the
guilty party. 1t Is great pity but that
persons of such murderous dispositions
could be apprehended, and have
the justice they so richly deserve melted

THE ASYLUM BROlL.

As the APPEAL, and in fact nearly
all of the papers of the State pre-
Sicted m my months ago. the polit-
ical jobbery entered into by Adams,
Hallock. Laugh,on and Huffaker,
has already began to bear fruit
DR.. Bergsein has filed serious
charges against the pr sent incum
bent, DR.. Bishop, and as they are
made under oath are entitled to
some consideration. They charge
the Superintendent with cruelty,
appropriation Of State funds to pay
for articles for his private use, and
allowing drunken and incompetent
subor1instes to remain in the Asy-
INN after their characteristics were
known. Whether DR.. Bergstein is
instituting these charges for the
purpose of retaliation. or whether
DR.. Bishop is gail'y Of them. can
only be determined after an impair
tial investigation by the Board. No
matter what the verdict may be
such an investigation, supplement-
ing such charges, can only have 2
tendency to give the Nevada Insane
ASYLUM q bad name abroad and es-
sen in the public estimation the
value of the Asylum as sanitary
institution. II would therefore have
been much better to have kept the
place free from political bargaining
and allowed man against whom
there were no charges or Suspicion
of Encouragement to remain where
he was. The whole unsavory mess
will not only result in lasting injury
to the State, but to al concerned IN
the compact by which certain poll
ticians used the position Of Snpt. OF
the Asylum as means Whereby
they could further their selfish
schemes of ambition and political
advancement.

The Colby Diamond

The first college annual to appear at Colby
this year bears the pleasant title Of ''The Dia-
mond." The reason for the name lies in the
fact that the xI chapte of the Delta Kappa
Epsilon Fraternity at that college are the pub
fishers. The paper and typography OF the
work are excellent. The literary articles in
are OF merit and the numerous cuts scattered
through it evince brightness in design and
skill in execution. Most notable among them
is the frontispiece, the work upon which was
done by one of our Portland photographers.
The Diamond contains much information
on student life at the college, many witty say
ings which win be read and appreciated by
alumni as well as students, and an original
spirit runs through the jokes, circumstance
at once rare and pleasant. Though the publ
cation had its origin in a sense of injustice
done the society, it is throughout elevated and
courteous in tone
We think the society is to be congratulated
on the ability Of its members and the success
of their work; and at least until the "Oracle"
shall appear, it seems safe to record our opinion
in words borrowed from the annual itself,
Diamonds are Trumps.'
