The friends of President Arthur will

THE friends of President Arthur will
undoubtedly ascribe the fierce TRADE of
Wayne MacVeagh, in the open letter ad-
dressed to the executive, as the outcome
of some fundamental hillary disarrange-
ment on the part of the Pennsylvania
statesman. The letter throughout mani
tests the most decideda ntipathyto Mr.. Ar
thur, and is couched in vigorous, almost
viruleut. language, such as would indicate
on the part of Mr.. MacVcagh, a robust
hatred of the gentleman at present accu-
pying the Presidential chair. Back of it
all, however, a method in MacNeagh's
madness is quite apparent. The manly
virtues Of Senator Edmunds. and the
almost equally manly virtues of Senator
Sherman, have not escaped the eagle eye
of the man from Pennsylvania. Edmunds
is undoubtedly his first choice for the Re
publican nomination, but it is just barely
possible that he has done his %fayorito as
much harm as was done Blaine. a few days
since, by the explanatory letter of Mr..
Phelps Whatever else may be said
against the letter, no one can doubt the
vigor and tersencss of Mr.. MACY eagh's
style, although a little less dyspeptic pre-
sentation of his facts would have secured
for him a more thoughtful bearing. The
Arthur men will be pretty eifectually stir
red up by it, however, and the Indications

Mhne Elephant nolIaas.

Big elephants and small elephants,
short elephants and long elephants have
all had a great part to play in the Circus
World but w. w. Cole has come to the
trout with a Sacred White elephant or
Inore properly speaking a white-faced Gle,
plant for such is the description of the
Sacred Burmese beast hat Cole imported
to this country at nu expense OF $1,000 O
all told. But a single elephant belt white,
blue or black, cuts a very small figure in
most everything that has an existence or
that curious humanity cares to see. The
circus is 50 large that it takes three rings
and has an elevated stage to give all the
performers a chance to display their var
ious acts and personal accomplishments.
The only fault 10 be found with
this truly enormous show is that it is too
big. F65rty-fve acts are given in every
performance. 1t combines a Circus,
Menagerie, Theatre, Roller Skating Rink,
Gallery of Wax Statuary and a dozen
other complete exhibitions-all in one.
Performances are given in the menagerie
tents-of which there are two-as well as
in the circus rings. A troup of Bedouin
Arabs is.a principal feature of the great
combination; a Human Fly, a lady ceiling
walker, aerial bieyelists. roller skaters,
Roman gladiators, rival riders, wrestling
gymnasts, leap5rs aud a hundred other
specialists will vie forsupremacy. A white
hippopotamus, a two horned ~rhinoceros
and Samson, the largest elephant even in
captivity are among the rare
animal -curiosities. Seven sisters,
with hair fully seven feet long,
are attractions to excite feminine jeal-
onsy and Gre the hearts Of our male

Little attention has been paid to the pro-
gress of cotton cultivation in southern Cali
fornia, during the past two years, yet cotton
of an excellent quality is grown there, the
only drawback being tho excessive cost
OF labor over tho cost in the gulf states.
One planter, who has satisfied himself by ex-
perimental planting for some years that the
climate Of southern California is well adapted
to cotton growing, has sent for 100 negroes
who nave boen brought up to cotton culture in
the south, and will employ them during this
season. 1t is possible that this venture may
be the means OF transferring in future years
from the southern states, now overcrowded
with negro laborers, u large number of valu-
able cotton hands to the new cotton region
on the Pacific coast.

has received $1,000 in full. 1t was the

Sheriff Sweeney returned home yester-
day from q trip to California and the
Coast north OF San Francisco. His object
while below was to secure the arrest Of
Martin, the Cortez murderer, whom, on
two different occasions, he thought he was
about to lay hands on. On inspection,
however, the arrested parties turned out to
be not the man wanted, but Mr.. Sweeney
ia on the williams trail and ia confident
that he will capture him yet. The diff
Guilty Of getting him has been, thus far,
that Martin is a hard man to describe
SO as TO distinguish him from any n of
a number Of men in any small town. He
is of medium hight, has no mark or ply
steal popularity, while in speech and man
ner there is no difference between him and
any other ordinary man great enough to
attention or to make him at all
conspicuous. Wherever the published de-
scription of the fellow has been read,
and this description is as full and as aecu-
rate as can be, unknown men here, there
and everywhere have been taken for him
and a number have been arrested and held
under this suspicion, but upon examine
ton have been released.

Complaint that the Applicants i'm
the West Are Handicapped.


Winnemucca is the place selected for
holding the competitive examination for
applicants for admission to West Point.
As far as known there are only one or two
boys from this city who will apply for adj
mission. The majority of the brightest
boys of Western Nevada are too poor to
stand the expense of a trip to that distant
portion Of the State, and 1t is feared that
in all there will be but few to enter the
lists for the coveted priced. Had it been
held at Reno. Carson or this city, 1t Is be-
lieved that at least q dozen would have
entered from this county alone. A promi-
ment educator Of this city to-day suggested
that it would be well to hold two examina-
tions-one in Eastern and one in Western
Nevada, and to select the two best in each
Of these tests for a third test to be held at
the most convenient point in the State.
With q prospect of one chance in two, or
one in four, to win, the boy, If unable to
stand the expenses Of the trip, might, with
the assistance of his hands, be enabled to
defray his travelling expenses. Perhaps
the railroads could be induced to furnish
free transportation for such as desire to
compete.-Virginia City Chronicle.
The case Of a worthy and ambitious boy
as presented by the Chronicle, is certainly
one to excite the sympathy of every person
that has proper human feeling. But If
there is an ~impecunious boy in Virginia
City who wants to stand the examination,
it seems that he ought TO find friends
enough in that liberal city to help him IN
in his laudable purpose. However, be this
as it may, there should be no COM
plant about the place chosen for
the examination. Winnemuccs was
selected for the reason OF its central
location and for no other. II Reno, for
example, or any other town in the extreme
western part Of the State had been picked
out, the trouble would be just as great, at
least, and greater. Boys from this section
Of the State would have to travel q very
great distance at great expense to compete
with the boys Of the West. Under the
present arrangement, the most central
point having been fixed upon for the ex-
animation, the average distance to be
travelled by applicants and the average Ok
pense Of the trip to each will be about the
least possible. 1t does not occur to us
that the proposition of two examinations
is at all feasible. After each board Of ex-
sminers had selected its best boy how
could q choice be made as between the
two? Two examinations, n at Winnie
mucca and another somewhere else, we
believe could not accomplish anything.
The prize to be secured is a valuable one,
and the friends of any poor, but bright
and deserving, boy ought to see that he
gets to Winnemuccs and is entered for the
contest. We believe, with the Chronicle,
that the railroad folks would stand in and
help such q lad, if the case Of his need and
his worth were properly presented.
