READING FOR THE SABBATH.
The Dear Hearts.

Above the dear, brave hearts that cease to be
Let loving hands strew flowers on every mound
Within the lines of the still eampng ground,
Where there is assault, and no retreat,
And victory is not followed by defeat.
Unbroken rest and peace at last are found,
No clash of swords, trumpet's thrilling sound.
Nor roar of guns distulbs their slu1nbers sweet
Their deeds writ memory's sacred SCROLL
And patriotic love shall touch these hearts of
When, at their graves fame comes to call the roll.
And hope, and love and honor scatter flowers.
Brave souls survive the storm of shot and flame;
Their furlough blossoms in ethereal fame.

SILVER DOLLARS AS A TENDER.

The Mining Record is ont OF patience
with what il terms '.the inexeusnble ig-
norance of business men in regard to
questions in regard to the weight and
legal tender character of the money of
the country. II cites, for Instance, an
interrogntory on which the financial pa
pers ARE constantly being called upon
to furnish information:
SIS silver" STANDARD dollars legal
tender to an unlimited amount? Is any
dictinction made in the legal tender
quality OF silver in payments to the
Government and i'll payments to 'tndi-
yiduals2"
With commendable patience. our con-
temporary was ut the pains to answer,
that standard dollars are unlimited le-
gnl-tender, except in cases of special
contracts calling for some other manner
of payment, and that fractional silver
could only be paid out in one payment
to tie extent OF ten dollars in the United
States.

THE MAIL SERVICE.

| We don't wish to be considered ehron-
ic GROWERS, but sense OF justice and n
desire to express the public sentiment,
causes us to make n few remarks upon
| the present mail service rs it now stands
between this place and HALEY. :
For more than year past the citizens
of Ketchnm have been obliged to sub
NIT to an outrageous imposition rs re-
CARDS the delivery and departure OF our
mails, ana have bowed assent to the ma
nipulntion Of the Postofliee Mt HALEY.
The time for that has about passed, and
with the advent OF the railrond we may
look for better things; but that Is no
reason why, ut present, we should be
put TO the Inconvenience we now suffer.
The mail arrives at HALEY in the even
ing, ana does not get here until noon,
or afternoon 81 the next day.
There is no sense or reason in that
mode OF procedure, and IL causes much
unfavorabe comment and annoyance TO
the merchants and business mpn OF this
place. There is no excuse for the mail
not arriving here at least by "a. NJ. II
that We're so, the mail could be distrib-
uted, and the letters assorted easily
| enough by p. ~, the time the mail
| goes out, in order to catch the evening
train from HALEY; but as things now
are we are hurried to an unnecessary de-
| gree, and have really not time enough TO
answer letters before the mail closes.
When trains commence running into
Ketchum the mail will arrive, and, we
suppose be distributed, in the evening,
and viii leave IN the early morning, and
citizens will then have an opportunity
! TO answer their correspondence in due
| form. We, citizens Of Ketchum, have
been annoyed beyond measure by the
obstinate refusal of the HALEY Office to
distribute and transfer our mail ms il
should be, long enough, aud change
! should ut once be made, or 4 complaint
entered before the proper authorities.
The stage drivers accuse the HALEY
/
Postoftice MS being the one to blame;
and, taking into consideration the per-
! sistent animosity always shown by Hal
ley toward this town in particular, and
the upper country ia general we have
no hesitation in giving credonce to their
accusation.
! II is TO be hoped n change will he no
ticed ut once, and our citizens have no
| further cause for complaint,

THE TWENTY YEAR RESTRICTION
BILL.

Some OF the disputants were slightly
surprised at the solution Of the prob
lem under discussion before the Ketch-
nm debating club as given by the KEY
STONE yesterday, viz: "Who was the
President who vetoed the Chinese
twcnty-yenr restriction bill?" AS there
was some betting on the proposition,
we understand, perhaps the following
statement by the leading member Of the
Congressional Committee that reported
the bills Will be more satisfactory. We
three weeks ago In che House Of Repre-
sentativcs by Hon. A. Il. Willis, OF Ken
lucky, reported officially in the Con-
gressionnl Record OF July Q, 1884. 1t
states the whole matter IN nutshell:
''We all know that years ago what is
known rs the ''cooy" law was passed,
which is similar In its principle to this.
We all remember the more recent anti
Chinese legislation. Az Chairman Of
the sub Committee ! had occasion six
years ago to examine this question. We
we're satisfied both ns to the policy and
riphtfulness OF such legislation. In be
hail OF the Committee ON Education and
Labor presented to Congress the first
anti Chinese bin. II wus vetoed by
President Hayes. but the efforts we made
forced new treaty with China. Under
tnt ira AIT " mn nj a
In the Forty Seventh Congress intro
duced another bill, which was vetoed by
| President Arthur. Another bill was
then offered more In conformity with
the views OF the Executive, but much
less satisfactory to the people Of the Pm
ciiic Slope. That bill became law and
this Congress to make IL effective has
added certain amendments. This whole
subject is, therefore, familiar TO u.s.
We may add that the general anti
Chinese bill was vetoed by President
Hayes on the ground TINT 1t contictcd
with the Burlingame trenty, and that
three special Commissioners were APP
pointed by Hayes 10 procure an amend
mcnt 10 the treaty by which Congress
could exclude tho Chinese without com
ing In conflict with treaty stipulntions.
Under the amended treaty the Sergeant
bill was made possible. excluding Chi
nese OF certain classes from this country
for twenty years. This was vetoed by
Arthur, aud new bin was subsequently
introduced, passed, and signed by Ar
thur limiting the period to ten years.

THE MEXICAN WAR PENSION.

The Mexican war veterans have much
reason To complain Of the manner In
which they have been treated for many
years. II they are entitled to any COM
pensstion whatever they should re-
ccive u in their lifetime, and not in the
next world. Thsir deeds werc per-
formed for their country, their sacrih-
ccs made, and pe,ils endured many
years ago. Many OF them are dead, and
NJ time passes they are fast dropping
away where pension rolls are not read.
Session after session OF Congress have
considered and debated pension bills.
but invariably they are los, in the con-
fiicts aud confusion Of the last days, and
another start has TO be made with a
new Congress. Something was expect
ed Of the present Congress. but IL APP
pears that the pending pension bill has
gone the way OF its predecessors, or has
becu postponed until next winter. 1t
pissed the House. but was SO amended
and loaded down with estraneous mat.
ter. that the Mexican veteran was near.
~ lost In tho multiplicity OF subjects.
Political considerations were evidently
paramount TO all others. The effect of
;bo measure upon the approaching olec.
tion controlled the action Of a majority
oi both parties. II the Senate desired
TO amend or extend the pension laws II
should have been done by separate
bill to that effect. There was no con .
ncc'ion between the two wars, and
none necessary IN the legislation re.
garding them.

LOCATING PUBLIC LANDS.

December. The bill repeating the pre-
emtion, desert land law, and timber

the location and appropriation of the
public domain except the Homestead
provisions. The settler can locate and
actually reside upon the land and OBJ
tain title, but in no other way, II the
bill became law within II day or two
before the adjournment, the land grab
bling business is over. and perhaps 1t is
a good thing that II Is. The land laws
have been grossly abused. The public
domain has been rapidly passing into
ownership, not only of native monopo-
lies, but has been seized by foreign cap
ilatists In vast tracts, nearly as large ms
a German principally. The old Next
can land grants of California were in
significant in comparison with many of
these foreign claims. Some of them
embrace entire counties. The Desert
Land act was VIGOROUSLY Il fraud, and
the Timber Culture act has cloaked
every species OF hoggishness. falsehood,
and laziness. There are counties IN
Idaho where square miles OF land have
been fenced in by greedy, selfish specu-
lators and bogus settlers without shad.
ow Of a Just or legal title. The Land
ofices are stuffed with documentary
forgerics and purguries to Sustain their
robberies. In isolated cases these laws
have operated benefcially; but they are
exceptional, and the whole batch IL this
latter day legislation ought to be wiped
out OF the books.
The matter, however, has probably
gone over among the mass Of unnnish-
ed business. We shall know definitely
within few days. Meanwhile persons
expecting TO utilize either Of those acts
by making locations will do we'll TO be
in haste about IL. II the time has not
already passed, 1t is certainly not far

THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC CON
VENIION.

The National Eanocratic Convention
was called to order by Barnam, Chair
man OF the National Central Committee.
The crowd IN reported immense. Ex-
Gov. Hubbard, OF Texas. was elected
Temporary President, and made an OPP
ening speech. Considerable discussion
arose over the question OF the enforce
ment Of the unit rule ms applied to the
New York delegation. The State Con-
vention instructed the delegation to
cast solid vote to be controlled by n
majority Of Nil the delegates. The Chi
cAgo Convention indorsed the instrnc-
ton, and the ~ votes Of that State will
b. cast as one. permanent orgnniza-
ton VIVA probably effected yesterday,

CLEyELAND'S NOMINATION.

Governor Cleveland, of New York,
has taken the grand prize ut the Chica-
go Convention. Whether il will prove
a big elephant, or mako him the TWEEN
second President of the United
States, viii be determined next Noycm-
Der. The outlines of fierce and des-
peratc contest are already foreshaduw-
ed. The parties are nearly evenly di-
yided in the country, the nominees of
both ARE able men, aud each are backed
by just as skilltul politicians MS the
world ever produced; while millions OF
voters animated by every passion of
patriotism, partizan zeal, aud personal
interest arc enlisted in the struggle. 1t
Is unfortunate that during the past
eight years no change has been made in
the electoral laws by which the posi-
bility of any such complication as oc-
cured In the Hays-Tilden election can
again happen. The positive, admitted
strength of each party in the country,
and in the electoral college, is too near
ly balanced TO be entirely safe.
It has been evident since Tilden's
first letter OF declination that the gem
eral sense of the party MI over the
country leaned strongly in favor Of
Cleveland. The Maine State Conven-
tion and the Texas Convention indi-
Gated friendliness that was clearly
supported by all of the intervening
States that did not have candidate of
their own to present. Kelly's opposi-
ton and Flowers unbounded ambition
in New York, aroused the only doubt of
serious consequence in the minds Of the
delegation from the other States
When Cleveland carried majority Of
his own State delegation under the
unite rula that threw u solid votes in
one direction, the battle was substan-
TALLY won, the requisite two-third vote
In the National Convention was within
easy reach.
Both parties have made strong and
popular nominations, Whatever mny
be the result of tho election tho Ameri-
can people will have tho satisfaction OF
knowing that the next President. whoth.
or Blaine or Cleveland. will be states
man Of experience, courage, and abll-
ity,
The great struggle will be mainly
made in five States--New York. New
Jersey, Connecticut, Ohio and Indiana.
The status OF the other States is so
clearly known that the event can be
generally predicted. with the exception,
perhaps, OF California, whore the con
test will be close; and probably q strong
effort will be made in West ymsinn
