No Doubt About 1t.

NEW YORK, November 1S.-When the
four suits brought by David Stewart
against Coils P. Huntington, involving
a large amount of money, were called
for trial to-day, before Judge Beach, in
the Supreme Court, an affidavit was
read from ex Senator Roscoe Conkling,
counsel for the defendant, setting forth
that he had been employed as counsel
by the Democratic party to
watch their interests at the canvass of
the Presidential votes, and that, there
fore, he was unable to appear in the
suit, and asked for postpOnement I'M
til such time as he could be present.
Joseph III. Choate, counsel for plaintiff,
argued against the postpOnement, and
said there was no doubt as to who was
elected President.

Mail Matter.

WASHINGTON, November 1S.-W. B.
Thompson, general superintendent of
the railway mail service, has submitted
his annual report. 1t appears that on
June 30th, 1884, there were III, 100 miles
of railroad upon which mails were car
RED, as compared with seventy-eight
miles IN 1884. During the last fiscal
year, the increase was 6 1852 miles. The
number of railway postOffice lines i'll
operation June 30, 1884, was 845. The
annual miles of service we're 81, 640, 099
The number of casualties during the
year was 154, in which seven postal
clerks were killed. twenty-eight serl-
Ously injured and sixty slightly
injured. A recommendation is
made that the PoStmaster-General be
authorized 10 pay the widow or minor
children of all clerks killed in the ser
vices, a sum equal TO one years salary
of the grade to which the clerk belonged
at the time of his death. An additional
appropriation of $81, 300 is recon-
mended for the purpose of increasing
the salaries of clerks of class five and
four to 400 and 81 200 per annum,
respectively. During the year the fast
mail service has been greatly improved
without increase in cost to the depart
ment. 1t seems probable that the Post
master-General will soon be able to
have the fast mail arrive at Omaha
much earlier than it now does and
have it, it is also hoped so that the mails
can be expedited so as to arrive in San
Francisco about am, instead of II. 10
am, as at present. The city mail can
be delivered Immediately upon arrival,
in time to get replies for the east-bound
mail the same day, which will be equal
to the saving of one day between New
York and San Francisco. The separa-
ton for city delivery in San Francisco
is now made on the cars.

THE EXECUTION OF
PEARSON.
GEORGE


penalty Of the crime which he com.
mitted in killing John Hall, two years
ago. He had a fair trial, and the
judgment was confirmed by the Su-
preme Court. An effort to have Gov
ernor Bum commute his sentence
proved unsuccessful, that executive
officer refusing to interfere in the
case.
His Exceneucy took occasion, in his
letter of declination, to outline his
policy in regard to malefactors, and
int;mated very plainly that they need
not expect any clcmency at his hands.
1t His Excellency remains firm in this
conviction, he will deserve, and doubt.
less receive, the Endorsement of every
right thinking man. Out on the
frontier men are altogether too prone
to resort to the use of deadly weapons
to settle fancied or real sights, and a
fe " hangings would have restraining
effect on these gun-men.
We are fully aware of the fact that
there exists in every Western COM
munity strong feeling against judi.
ciai executions; but we are satisfied
that this is due solely to the loose adj
ministration of the laws, and that the
feeling is not based upon any sound
reasoning. Things have gone so
far, in this respect, that the murderers
often receive the sympathy and con
sideration which should be extended
to their victims exclusively.
This county has a population of
scarcely 10000 souls, yet more shoot.
ing scrapes have taken place here dur
ing the past three years than can be
charged against any Eastern commu-
nifty Of ten times the numerical
strength. 1t was therefore high time
that something should be done to put
a stop to them. Governor Bum
doubtless realized this, and acted &C.
cordingly.
Now, if our Mormon masters would
only pass law prohibiting the carry.
ing of concealed weapons. we might
look forward to having comparatively
peaceable communities in Idaho, after
. while.
AS to George Pearson, his sentence
was undoubtedly just. He had fair
trial, was defended by able counsel,
and q jury of ~ honorable men found
him guilty. The Supreme Court then
reviewed the case, and two out of
three Judges unhesitatingly concurred
in the judgment of the lower court,
Wilde even the third Judge Buck)
could offer no very material reason for
reversing it. He therefore had every
reasonable opportunity to prove his
innocence. Since he failed to do so,
it is reasonable to presume that he
was guilty.
Now, q word about the course of
the TINES. When shooting affairs
take place, there are always plenty to
charge cowardice, or worse motives,
because we invariably refuse to com.
ment on the occurrence. But the fact
is that no newspaper man making the
least pretense to respectability will ex.
press IN opinion in cases of this kind
until they are adjudicated upon by
the court Of last resort. The reasons
for this are patent: The defendants
case might be prejudiced, and the
ends of justice thereby defeated.
il VAS for this reason that, although
~ refused T. sign Pearson's appeal
