Our old fellow townsman, &c. Muir
ray, is not without (political) honor in
Missouri as he was here. He is a
member elect of the legislature of that
state and is prominently mentioned
for high places in that body. The
Platte county Argus, quoted with ia
vorable comments by the Nevada
Democrat dominates him for speaker
of the house in the following compli-
mentary language:
"Among the most distinguished
democrats elected to the next house of
representatives is Judge J. c. Murray,
of Vernon county, native of our town
and county, and brother of Mrs. R. P.
c. Wilson. A ripe scholar and law
yer of fine ability, as well as an ardent,
active working democrat, he has long
been one of the pillars of the party in

inently mentioned in connection with
the speakership of the house, for which
he is so admirably qualified. Judge
Murray will not meet his superior in

AMONG the recommendations Of

AMONG the recommendations OF
President Arthur, was one that pen
sion be given to Gen. Grant. In &C
cordance with this recommendation.
the chairman of the committee on PEN
sions during the first days of the ses-
sion, introduced a bill allowing Gen.
Grant an annual pension of 5000. We
are glad to see, by Tuesdays dailies,
that the bill has been Withdrawn at
the Generals own request, he having
written to the gentleman who intro
duced it, that under no circumstances
could he accept a pension. This act
will very greatly raise Gen. Grant in
the opinion of the vast majority of his
countrymen. No one would begrudge
him the 5000 if he needed it, but in
spite of his losses last summer he is
still rich man, and can i'll afford to
appear before the country in the role Of
a beggar.

THE HUMBOLDT TRAGEDY.

A most unfortunate affray took place
in Humboldt last Monday night which
resulted in the killing of Frank Vogt
and serious wounding of his half BROTH
er, Herman Scheer. AS has been gen.
orally known there has been a warrant
in the hands of the sheriff for some
time for the arrest of John Brooks and
Herman Scheer, charged with violat-
ing the prohibitory law. They have
eluded the officers until last Monday
when Sheriff Gordon received notice
that they were in Humboldt. Ac-
companied by John Brown, he accord
ingly went to Humboldt, Monday
evening, arriving there after dark.
Upon the recommendation of Mr..
Amos they went to the house of Mr..
Ashcraft and asked him to go with
them and show them where these men
lived. Ashcraft demurred but finally
consented 10 go. They went first to
the house of John Brooks, and finding
him at home, John Brown arrested
him and took him to the Nickleplate
Hotel. Gordon and Ashcraft then
returned to the square and Gordon,
leaving Ashcraft IN front of the old
Monroe house, told him to remain
there on the lookout, while he went to
the Fitzsimmons' place to look for
Scheer. What happened afterwards
is thus told 10y Scheer himself. before
