The Indians.
DENYING, June

DENYING, J une 3-
 A party of two men who arrived
 here from Florida Mountains say the
 Indians are still there, but it is hard ly probable. Gen. Crook arrived lere
 this morning and immediately depart
 ed for Fort. Bayard. No further @e-
 dpredations by the Indiqns have been
 'epof.ed;' and they have no doubt
 made'their way ioto Mexico leaving
 behind thcn, many marks of their
 bloody work. Captain Overton, of
 the 7tk cavalry, against whom charges
 have been preferred of cowardiee by a lieutenant, will be made to su fer. Over.on is described as being tyrant at the pest and coward in the field, He had the Indians completely sur rounded with troops and could have massacred them. and the men were anxious to make the attack, but Over ton, through fear, commanded the troops to retreat and hurried them back to Fort Bayard and allowed the Indians to murder Q family or five within three miles of his post. This bloody outbreak will retard the pro sress of Southern New Mexico for some time, and could have easily been suppressed by the troops if the proper officers had been in command. Gen. Brady is receiving his share of the con lelnna:ion, Ee never having once .aken the field, conducting the c2m- | oaisn by telegraph only. A report las just reached here that Col. FoYn- | .aine's territorial militia las a band of l indians corralled in tic Magdalera noantain2. No particulars are obrain- lb,e,

Labor Troubles.
BREWER, Mo. Jun

BREWER, Mo, June :.
 One Of tkc most serious. outbreaks during the whole strike occurred last evening about 7 o'clock. After three days of quiet and the transaction of business of mine No. 1, withou. meles. tation, several os the new colored min. CTS strolled down town for walk af- ter supper. A by-staniier reports that the usual crowd of strikers were stand ing on tie corners, mos. of them ou;et, but some few amongst the number were under the influence of liauor. Two of the darkies, contrary to tie in structions of the employers, had re
 voivers with them, openly in view. They were, however, walking alcng at tending to their business when e drunk en striker and the strikers closed it up- on him.. Tie dari,ey backed out of the crowd in fear, and as ke turned tc run was followed by the mob, when he turned and fred at them and ther. ran for the stockade, followed by the Y ar shal and crowd Of taer, women and children. He was slot at'by his pur- suers but escaped. In going through a yard by the mine tie shots came very near lady standing there. The strikers claim that the darkay diI the shooting, hut az :. has been learned tha: he had lost lis pistol before this, it must have been one of the mob. A warrant was sworn out against the darkey, --d tne city marshal and posse keeping the crowd back we~t to the inc.osure and demanded the dsrkey. Loomis and Snively, knowing that 1t would be madness to give the darkey up to the mob, and that the other col cred men would not pe-ni. it without trouble, tried to pursuade the marshal not to make the arrest until the next day, and offered to give large cash bond for his appearance. They, how ever, refused this proposition, and with great difficulty Loemis & Snively pre- vailed upon tEeir men to submit to an for identification.

! The Management OF this new en-

I gctic gentlemen, who will make a
supreme effort, by low rates, magn!f
icent displays and otherwise, TO at
tract to the Exposition, in large

brains to employ and capital to in.
vest in every inviting field. Before
this large and intelligent assem-.
blage, from every cline and country
the best resources and capabilities

adequately displayed. We should
rival, if We d" not sulpass, that mag

the heart of every MIssissiplian
with patriotic pride. To this end,

Tho jackson Postdmcei

There is q great deal Of dissatis-
faction and had feeling about the
settlement Of the jackson postofllce
question, TO which Congress man
Barksdale, Senator George and the
two leading contestants at the pri-
mary election and their friends are
all parties. The following will give
an idea OF the attitude oil the matter
to-date:
JACKSON, Mss, Sept. IL, 1885.
The undersigned, DESTROYS of re-
fecting the will of q majority Of the
Democrats residing within the de
livery of the jackson Postoffice, in
the recommendation we designed
making to the President, had re.
course to a primary election, and for
its conduct adopted rules and regu.
lations which we deemed essential.
Among them was the following
"In case q single vote is cast not
"authorized by the conditions pre-
"scribed for said election, we should
regard it rs a nullity."
Upon an examination of the pa
pers Submitted to us by Messrs. j
W. CLINGAN and CHESTER Z. BULK
LEY, we have found.
That said rule was violated by the
casting of number Of improper
votes, notwithstanding the care ex
erciscd by the managers, and thi.
violation is declared and shown in
the papers submitted by both par
ties.
In accordance With the conditions
prescribed for said election, and be
cause of their violation, we have de
cidcd that said election is Of nc
binding force; and especially so
since it appears from the allegation.
of both parties that many improper
votes were cast, making it doubtful
as to who is the real choice OF tn,
Democrats properly voting at sale
election.
The election having failed, il be
came our duty to make recommen
dation, which We have done. TIL,
conclusion We have reached, ate
| due delihcration, is not the result o
compromise or concession on The
part of either, but is the best judy
ment of each as to what is proper tC
be done under the circumstances.
j z GEORGE,
K. BARKsDALE
After reaching the above conclu
sion Messrs. Barksdale and Georg'
decided to recommend for the posi-
ton Gen. Writ Adams.

Governor Lowry has successfully
met every charge brought against
him. He has been weighed in the
critical balance of public opinion,
and not found wanting. The tire
less vigilance of his enemies has
failed to find one flaw in his private
and official character. Every shaft
has broken harmless at his feet.
There is not vulnerable spot about
him. With the failure of each re
peated effort to defame him, he has
grown in public confidence and at
lection until to-day he is enthroned
in the hearts Of the people. They
have grasped him in their strong
arms and with brave hearts they
will seat him again in the position
he now adorns.

The Art of Getting Vigorous

Is comprised in one very simple piece of
advice, improve digestion. No elaborate
system of dietectics is needed. If you
lack vigor, use systematically that pleas
ant promoter of it, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. If you take this hint, and do
not commit any excuses, there is no rea-
son why you should not gain in strenth,
appetite and weight. Hosts of whilom
invalids are to-day building foundation
for years of vigorous health with this
sound and thorough renovator of diiap-
idated physique and failing energy Dys-
pepsia is cr'di"ated Ivy it. and the cOnsti-
tuition fortified against disorders to
which, if it We're exposed, it must surely
succumb - notably malarial fever.
Rheumatism, inactivity OF the kidneys
and bladder, nervousness, and their
various symptoms, disappear when it is
used with persietency, not abandoned
after brief and irregular trial.

Railroad Supervision in Georgia

Nstchez Democrat.
The state of Georgia has tried
railroad supervision probably a.
thoroughly as any State in the
Union. Georgia has more miles of
railroad than any other Southern
State, and is in as good condition
for trying the experiment of super
vision es any other That State has
carried its supervision principles to
such an extent that the whole earn
ings of the roads are ahsolutel Y con
tIoIled by three commissioners ap
pointed by the State. These com.
missioncrs have no personal interest
in any of the roads, yet obey are al
lowed to saw what the capitalists
who have S75,000,000 invested in
shall do in the management of their
property.
This has had so depressing an ef.
lecL upon the railroad interest, aud
is 81 manifestly unjust, that on the
recommendation of the governor the
legislature is now engaged in dis.
GUESSING a bill for the relief of the
railroad companies, in which the
power of the commission is confined
to preventing unjust discrimination
In the meanwhile the construction
of railroads has almost ceased in the
State. and persons in the State who
appreciate the injustice done the
roads claim that capital will ne
lougcrseek investment in a business,
the management of which is taken
out of their hands and entrusted to
parties not interested in the enter
prise
There seems but little doubt that
the legislature Of Georgia, after u
full trial of the supervision law and
observation Of its injurious working,
will greatly modify the present law
if they do not repeal it altogether.
