DaytOn's New Paper.

The first number Of the Dayton News
Reporter has been received at this Office.
1t looks we'll geographically and is
Democratic in politics. We cannot ex-
actly say that we welcome the new
paper to our exchange list. The town
of Dayton already has a good exponent
of its interests in the shape of the LYON
COUNTY TIMES. The TINES has been
published in Lyon County for many
years and stood by the county through
thick and thin SO to speak. The new
paper just started has all the outside
appearance OF a campaign sheet and ev-
identity proposes to sip the political hon
ey at the season when it is sweetest and
most plentiful. The Appeal never be-
LEVIED mitch IN these campaign papers
which started up just at that time when
there is SO much money to be made in
politics and who have not travelled along
through the burden and heat of the day.
We do not think there is room for two
papers in the town Of Dayton and if the
patronage Of the town is divided up
there will in time be two poor newipa-
pers where there was once one good one.

Physicians Have Found out

That communicating and foreign ele-
ment in the blood, developed by indi-
gestion, is the cause of rheumatism.
This settles upon the sensitive sub-cuta-
Moons covering of the muscles aud liga-
ments of the joints, causing constant
and shifting pain, and aggregating as a
calcareous, chalky deposit which pro-
duces stiffness and distortion Of the
joints. No fact, which experience has
demonstrated in regard TO Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, has stronger evidence
to support than this, namely, than this
medicine of comprehensive uses checks
the formidable and atrocious disease,
nor is it less positively established that
it is preferable to the poisons often
used to arrest it, since the medicine
contains only salutary ingredients. 1t
is also signal remedy for malarial
fevers, constipation, dyspepsia, kidney
and bladder ailments, debility and
other disorders. See that you get the
genuine.

The Hint.ley strike.

About six hundred pounds of very
high grade silver rock, from the Hind
ley mine in Garfield district, was re-
ceived here last Saturday. The rock
is very fine and assays S2,4sI O. per
ton. The ledge from which it is taken
is now about IS inches wide. The
Hindley is owned by c. H. Rulison,
&. w. Likens, w. w. Byron, Harry
Cobb, G.. c. Fish and other parties in
Dayton, and is an extension of the
Great Western mine, which is owned
by Archie harrington. The strike has
caused considerable excitement in Gar.
field district. The six hundred pounds
of rock were sent to the Selby Smelling
Company Of California. The owners
are very much elated over the prospects
Of soon becoming millionaires.

EDITOR TINES IL beg leave through
the columns of your paper to answer a
charge against me which appeared in
the last issue of the NezOS Reporter.
Saying that | while acting as Janitor of
the Court House, left it for as long as
thirteen days at time without any one
to look after it. That assertion is a
pure falsehood, and the man who wrote
is perjurer. | will state for the bene.
fit OF those who might otherwise believe
the assertions of that person who hides
himself under the cloak Of an an
onymous name, that was never absent
at any time from the Court House,
while have been Sheriff, when my
presence was required, except on off.
cial business, and during those times
have always left Deputy to attend to
my duties in my absence, and said
duties were performed by my Deputy.
The writer oil the communication in
your last issue, Mr.. Editor, had he a
mind to, in his remarks about Demo
cratic economy, as practiced by the
Chairman Of the Board of County Com
missioners, need not have stopped with
the expenditures for janitors salary, for
it is common report that hundreds OF
dollars have been misspent either will.

which might have been saved to the
county in the matter Of caring for the
indigents Of the county, had the Chair
man been willing to cooperate with Mr..
Littell. Justice, says this change in
anitors made by the Chairman OF the
Board Of County Commissioners, results
in the saving 10 the county of $3.50 per
year. Now, while we are on the SUBJ
Ject of economy, let the Chairman Of
the Board in this janitorship business
by his official acts speak for himself
Mr.. Smith, the present jahitor, receives
500 per month. A few months ago an
old and respected citizen of this county,
a resident Of Dayton, made application
for the position of Janitor, and agreed
TO do the work fully as well as the pres
ent janitor for one half the salary,
which would be a saving TO the county
OF $500 per year. And, | will vouch in
any amount that he will sweep out the

as Mr.. Smith, who has not been Gill
zen OF Lyon county for IS years, but
came from Lundy, Mono county, Cal,
where he has lived for a number Of
years. The query will be how did he
get the position of janitor' Easily
answered. Mr.. Kean's enmity to the
writer made him act in a contemplate
manner, and influencing Mr. Scheel 10 act
with him in making Mr.. Smith janitor.
Why should Mr.. Kean have such a
friendship for Smith will tell you.
About IA years ago Mr.. Kean was in

The North Rapldan.

The air connection was made this
week in the North Rapidan mine in
Como. 1t has been quite an undertake
ing for the Company to perform this
work, as the bad air has allowed but
one or two men to work in the mine at
a time. 1t is understood that in few
days force Of six or eight men will be
put to work to take out the rich rock
that was struck some months ago. By
the time the road, which is now being
fixed, is in complete repair, another lot
of ore will be ready for shipment.

little orphan girl whose sole heritage it
was, will realize an Independent for

A BLOW TO RAILROAD POOLS.

n DLOW ~ fOOLS.
The bold move made by Governor
Pattison against the coal and freight
railroad pools, was not suddenly in
spired purpose. On the contrary, he
has long contemplated just such death
blow to the pooling policy of coal pro-
ducers and transporters, but the oppor-
tunity had not fairly presented itself
until now. The whole tendency OF
Governor Pattison's administration has
been toward the climax he has now
reached. Early in his Gubernatorial
efforts, he found himself alienated from
the dominant sentiment of his party, so
far as mere political administration is
INVOLVED, but he went right along and
patiently and tirelessly formulated a
State policy of his own that his party
has been more than willing to accept.
He took strong grounds with the
Granger and Labor elements on the dis
tnct issues they raised in the legislative
policy of the State, and lie has been
steadily strengthening his policy as
events developed which increased the
power of the interests with which he
made common cause, until now he be-
lieves that the time has come when the
oppressive pool system both in the pro-
duction, transportation and sale of coal
and in freights on railways can be abso-
lutcly and finally broken up.
There are many of the opinion that
the present move has been made for
political purposes only, and has no real
significance, but the past actions of
Governor Pattison will not confirm
these insinuations, which undoubtedly
eminate from personal and political
enemies. He will, as a Democrat. sup
port Black, and if his administration as
the Chief Magistrate of the keystone
State, will in any way benefit his party,
he is perfectly willing that it should be
so; but his sole purpose is TO establish
in the settled political and legislative
policy of this State the impossibility of
future pool combinations which are used
as means of eXtorting money from the
consumers OF coal and the products of
the agricultural districts. The facts
that our Pennsylvania coal is furnished
at lower prices to consumers in distant
cities and States by the same combina-
tion that pools it at higher prices to our
own people; that labor is entirely de-
pendent upon the interests of the pool
for employment, and that commerce is
often seriously embarrassed by the un-
certainty in freights, have all been care
fully gathered and verified by Governor
Pattison for many months, and the re-
cent open pooling of the great Pennsyl- |
vania coal and railroad corporations to
increase prices and diminish production,
gave him the occasion he was awaiting.
AS the present Governor and Attorney
General have about three months more
of official power there is every reason to
believe that the matter will be pushed !
at once, so as to make it compulsory for
the next ADMINISTRATION to prosecute it to
final Judgment.

BT0adDTimS New York Letter.
Special to the CARBON ADVOCATE

Special to the CARBON ADVOCATE.
For some years past there has been a
special statute among the laws of New
York expressly directed against gambl-
ing on race-courscs. This particular
species of gambling was found to be so
fascinating and so demoralizing that it
was deemed advisable TO enact special
law against it, Young clerks in stores,
boys scarcely out of their teens, and even
school-boys became infected with this
aluring form of vice; till at last, thefts
were constantly reported of victims to
the betting mania. Nor, indeed, was
the betting on the so called French pools
confined to men; through an entire sea-
son at Coney Island-every day rain or
shine, ] saw a mother and daughter
from one of the Western States, who
made up their books upon every race.
and it was said that the mother cleaned
up at the end Of the season nearly $lO,-
600 in hard cash. Well, as / remarked,
so demorallzing had this system become
that special statute was demanded for
its suppression. 1t passed both houses
without any serious fight, and was
signed by the Governor the day it passed
the Senate. From that time to the
present the most strenuous efforts have
been made to enforce the law: within
the past few weeks the pool sellers and
the owners of the Coney Island Race
Course, and the members of the Jockey
Club have been arrested, but you might
as well try to fly as to convict one of
these estimable gentlemen. Two trials
have taken place in two weeks; there
was no doubt about the bettng-there
was no question about the gambling:
but one intelligent, noble-minded Jury
man declared to his eleven obstinate
compatriots that he would remain in
the juryroom till Sheol froze over. and
then dance upon the ice before he would
convict any body of respectable men of
such an Otfense as that. Kings County
has spent several thousand dollars TO
the law, but the pool seller
and gambling horse jockey snap their
fingers in the face of the authorities, and
defantly ask-what are you going to do
about It?
One of the most notorious places in
New York is Harry IIn's on Houston
Street, not stones throw from the
police headquarters. For a quarter of
century il has been the resort Of prize
fighters, gamblers and thieves. After
a desperate struggle Mr.. IIill's license
was taken away; lac refused to pay
blackmail to those who had the pull be-
hind the throne, and hr could not get
his license back. Now Mr.. Ilirs Moral

les. tenure Of Office, &c. The sting is
in section ,, which is in the following
words:
All contracts that shall be made by emi-
grants 10 the United States in foreign coun-
tries, in conformity to regulations that may
be established by the said Commissioner,
whereby enligrantS shall pledge the wages
of their labor fora term not exceeding twelve
months, to repay the expenses of their emf
grafton, shall be held to be valid in law, and
may be enforced In the courts of the United
States or of the several S Slates and Terrltor-
les; and such advances, If so stipulated in
the contract, and the contract be recorded
in the Recorders Office in the county where
the emigrant shall settle, shall operate as a
lien upon any land thereafter acquired, until
llquidated by the cmigrant whether under
the homestead law when the title is consun-
mated, or on property otherwise acquired by
the emigrant; but nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to authorize any contract
contrayening the Constitution of the United
States, or creating in any way the relation of
slavery or serytudc.
Everybody knows that swarms of
aliens have been imported into this
country under contract since the pas
sage of that act; that they have worked
their appointed time at wages utterly
ruinous to American workluen, and
then returned to their squalid homes in
Europe. They came with 10 intention
of becoming citizens of the United
States. The perpetrators of this griev-
GUS outrage against American working
men find their apology in the Republi-
can law above quoted, and which may
be justly styled the pioneer act in legs-
latlve assaults on American labor.
In the light of this law there is some
thing like grim irony in the declarations
on this subject found in Republican
platforms OF late years"

A RESUME OF THE LETTER.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Oct, lst, 1856. !
Hon. LEWIS c. CASSIDY, Atty GIN:
My Dear Sir-My attention has been
directed TO the fact that within the past
fortnight certain corporations, chartered
by the Commonwealth of PENNSYLVANIA.
acting in concert, have ordered two
advances in the price ofAnthracite coal.
1t has been ascertained upon inquiry.
that these corporations comprise what is
known as the Anthracite Coal Combina-
uon, which was created in its present
form alta meeting held in New York citv,
on December 3lst, 1884, when there were

STORE ORDERS LEGAL.

The State Supreme Court, which con-
vened at Pittsburg, Monday, handed
down several important opinions, among
them that of G.. A. Godcharles VS..
Frank Weigeman, error to the Common
Pleas of Westmoreland county. This is
a most important opinion, inasmuch as
it declares unconstitutional the lcgisla-
tive act making the store order system
illegal. The opinion is handed down by
Justice Gordon, who says:
The orders given by the defendant and re-
ceived by the plaintiff constitute a proper
set-off The first, second, third and fourth
sections of the act Of June 90, 1881, are utter
ly unconstitutional and void, inasmuch as by
them an attempt has been made by the Leg
islatEre to do what in this country cannot be
done-that is, to prevent persons who are
SUI JRRIs from making their own contracts.
The act is an infringement alike Ofthe rights
of the employer and cmploye; more than
this, 1t is an Insulting attempt TO put the Ia
borer under legislative tutclage, which is not
only degrading to his manhood but subyerslve
of his right rs citizen of the United States.
He may sell his labor for what he thinks
best, for either money or goods, just as his
employer may sell his iron or goods, and any
and every law that proposes to prevent him
from so doing is an infringement of his con
Sttrtional privileges, and, consequently,
vicious and void. Judgment reversed.
The decision is roundly denounced by
the local labor element. T. A. Arm

the Pittsburg Miners Association. ad-
wise miners and all others affected by
the decision to begin at once an active
warfare on the system and not to let up
until it is abrOgated.
