A BIT OF TELEGRAPH LAW.

A man went to a telegraph office in
Frankfort, Ind, to send q dispatch
which called for an answer. He was a
stranger in the town. The operator re-
fused to send the message unless the
writer would deposit twenty-five cents
to pay for the answer. The operator
acted in obedience to a rule of the com.
pany that transient persons sending
messages which require answers must de-
post an amount sufficient to pay for ten
words"
The man sued the company to recover
the statutory penalty for refusal to trans
init a message. The question whether
the company had any right to make the
rule above quoted went to the Supreme
Court of the State.
That tribunal sustains the company.
1t remarks that the right to make rea.
sonable bylaws for the regulation of its
own business is an inherent power OF all
corporations. The bylaw in dispute in
this case it holds to be reasonable. "a
person" it says, "who sends another a
message and asks an answer promises by
fair and just implication to pay for trans
uniting the answer The telegraph COM
pany has a right to proceed upon this
natural inference, and in requiring a

as q skillful furnsceman, Mr.. Welsh has
been appointed superintendent OF the

There are 1900 tons of Gre on hand at the

be made. As the silver bars are shipped

THE TRUTH OF TIE NATTER.

THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER.
When high moral dyspeptics cannot
find anything else to be doleful about
they may be confidently depended upon
for q jeremiad over the unwillingness OF
young men to marry. There is SO much
talk on this subject-and some of it
finds its way into newspapers-that some
people have begun to believe that to
keep up our population we will have to
import a rising generation from abroad.
The real truth Of the matter is plainly
stated by the philadelphia Press as fol-
lows: "Now, this condition of affairs and
these results may be true of four or FIVE
of our large cities and one or two States
in which the means of livelihood are ex-
hausted. Unfortunately the writers who
predicate their alarming predictions on
their own experience live in these States
and cities, and habitually regard them as
comprising the United States. Outside
of Philadelphia, New York, Boston and
one or two other large towns marrying
goes on as briskly as in the days of our
fathers; throughout the South and the
great West marriage on small means and
large, sturdy families are the universal
rule. Even the New Highlander (who,
according to these lugubrious forebod-
ines. is to be the first branch Of the race
to perish), although he leaves the large
surplus OF women unmarried at home.
marries when he goes to the West. and,
like the end of a fairy tale, has nineteen
children and is happy ever after"

THE BLOODY APACHES.

After being made the target for slurs
and sarcasms from all sides on his failure
to exterminate the hostile Chiricahuas,
General Crook must be gratifed to find
General Sheridan standing by him and
heartily commencing him. The Lieuten.
ant General acknowledges in his annual
report that only forty.two warriors and
ninety.two squaws and children made up
Geronimo's band, and that thus far their
pursuers have killed only about a dozen
OF the men, and have captured about
thirty women and children:
They should all be exterminated or
captured, and I have the greatest conf
dence in General Crooks ability to &C.
complish this purpose, though the diff
culties are very great. l beg
the people in that section to bear IN
mind that General Crook is the best man
we have to deal with these hostile In
dams, and will accomplish more in the
end than perhaps any man in the army.
He is familiar with the Indians and the
country, and, unfortunate as the people
OF Arizona and New Mexico have been,
there is no other man in the Army who
could do any better or who is more
wrapped up in the welfare of the people
in that section. l take great
pleasure in commencing General Crook
for the admirable disposition of his troops
and his steady perseverance under dis
heartening circumstances.
General Crook was a classmate OF Gen.
eral Sheridan at the Military Academy,
served with him as a Lieutenant of the
same regiment. the Fourth Infantry, in
Oregon and Washington Territories be-
fore the civil war, and under his com
mand both in the Shenandoah campaign
of 1864 and the Appomattox campaign
After the war he served under General
Sheridan at the West. Hence the opin'
ion Of the Lieutenant General ought tc
carry some weight, although the degree
of IMMUNITY with which these Indians
have ravaged Arizona and committed
their fiendish atrocities is extraordinary,
