The Democrats Of Ormsby
have been shrieking all over the
city that the Republicans of this
county are the foes Of the laboring
men and the friends of the Chinese.
This is false and its falsity can be
automatically demonstrated. The
Republicans of this city employ
twice as many white men as the
Democrats. The Democrats who
are bowling the loudest about white
labor are very careful not to employ
any of it, When your hear such
men prating about their love for
the laboring class, ask them how
much white help they employ and
they will change the subject of con-
versation at once.

Daniel Webster used sometimes
to read the conclusion of a charge
by Judge Dudley, a trader and a
farmer, manuscript copy of which
he had for many years In his desk
1t was treat to hear him read it
in pure and undeiled English, as it
doubtless came from Judge Dud-
ley's lips:
You have heard, gentlemen of
the jury, what has been said in
this case by the lawyers, the ras-
Gals. bat, no, | will not abuse them.
1t is their business to make a GOOD
cause for their clients; they are
paid for it, and they have done it
III this case we'll enough; but you
and [, gentlemen, have something
else to consider. They talk of law.
Why. gentlemen. it is not law that
We want. but justice. They would
govern us by the common law of
England. Trust me, gentlemen,
common sense is a much safer
guard for us; the common sense of
Raymond, Epping, Exeter, and the
other towns which have sent us
here to try this case between two
neighbors. A clear head and an
honest heart are worth more than
all the law of the lawyers, There
was one good thing said at the bar.

That is our business, and the curse
of God is upon US if we neglect, or
evade, or turn aside from it. And
now, Mr.. Sheriff, take out the jury, |

Why do certain parties in this
city labor so assiduousiy to prevent
the formation of a Republican club
IN Ormsby? The club system has
led the Republican party to victory
in this county for fifteen years
and made it the banner Republican
county in this State. In the name
of heaven then, what is the matter
with the club system? The only
thing that anybody has so far ar
gued against it Is that it pulverizes
the Democrats.

another Mail Outrage.

Parties in from Cherry Creek in
form us that the Postmaster there
has received orders from the De-
partment to suspend all mail SER
vice between Cherry and Ely, thus
cutting off all communication be-
tween the Northern and Southern
end of this country, besides de-
priving all the ranchers of thickly
settled valley 80 miles in length, of
postal service. The outrage is so
great that we cannot believe it is
true. If true it is a shame and
disgrace. More than 20 copies of
the News are distributed along that
route, and there is no other mail
communication to supply the peo-
White Pine News.
We commend this item to the at
tention of the Democratic journals
who are continually telling how Fair
is extending the mail routes of the
State. Fair certainly ought to
jump in about now and have the
department build a narrow guage
railroad between these points with
hourly mails.

THE SILVER DOLLAR.
Uhe Arguments Put in n Nut

shell.
OF all the silly things thrust into
our faces from day to day, the
slush about the silver dollar being
worth 80 cents beats all Will the
fools never learn anything? The
paper in greenback dollar is not
worth 80 cents, is it? Why not
make this fact pretext for retiring
them all? True enough, the Shy
lock crew hate the greenback and
want to destroy the last one; but
who ever heard Of any one arguing
that because the paper on which
they we're printed was not worth
dollar, therefore destroy them?
That is too thin" Everybody
could see through that. And yet
the argument against the silver
dollar is exactly the same. Will
the people pever learn that money
is one thing and the material used
In making it another? The Shy
lock crew know this. We cant
give them credit for being such
fools as not to know it. But it is
their aim and business to keep the
masses in ignorance of the true
nature of money. As Judge Tiff
any says: Truly speaking, there
is no such thing as a gold dollar, a
silver dollar, or paper dollar. =

 l had the honor of being presented to Her Royal Highness at the last drawing-room and will give you q description of her dress. It was of the most tender lilac or mauve shade, a waist and petticoat of lilac terry velvet, train of cream crepe de chine, handsomely embroidered in various shades of flowers, lined and bordered with lilac and coral roses. The skirt was looped with tulIe and embroidered with flowers, the train caught back with lilac feathers. Her head dress was tiara of diamonds feathers and veil, her ornaments diamonds. She wore the orders of Victoria and Albert, the Crown of India, St. Catherine of Russia, St. John of Jerusalem, the Royal Red Cross and Dan ish family order. Next stood the Princess Christian of Schieswig- Holstein in dress and train of black striped velvet and satin, the train lined with scarlet satin and trimmed with jet. It should be remarked here that people going out of mourning in England all ways wear scarlet. Her headdress was tiara of diamonds, feathers, veil and her naments emeralds and diamonds. She wore four orders. the Victoria and Albert, the Crown of India, St. John of Jerusalem and the Royal Red Cross. The Princess Mary of Cambridge stood next to her, an immense but rather handsome woman. Then came a young girl, the Princess Louise of Wales. An exquisite shade of blush brocaded satin, lined with poult de soie and trimmed with feathers and syringa blossoms, joined the corsage and train over tulle pettlcoat looped with punches of the same flowers. Her headdress was of feathers and tulle veil. She wore pearls, diamonds and ru- bies. Next to her stood her popular papa, the Prince of Wales, in full suit of scar let, the uniform of general.

A BLOW AT POLYGAmY.

 If the anti-polygamy bill which the Judi ciary committee has just reported to the house is passed Mormonism will not have much political standing. It is provided by it that women shall vote more in Utah. The ballot is to be secret from henceforth Before can vote, or be voted for, or sit upon juries, he must solemnly swear that he will obey all laws of the United States, and in particular all laws against polygamy, and that he will not aid, abet or counsel disobe- dienee in others. Polygamy and polygamous cohabitation a1e made to be felonious crimes Legal wives are entitled to dover, but polyga- nous 'wives" and their children cannot in- herit property. Prosecutions can be com menced without waiting for the legal wife to enter complaint. The Mormon church as a legal corporation is dissolved, as also the per petual emigration fund, and the attorney general is to see that their affairs are wound up at once. A territorial council is to be constructed by appointment of the President and confirmation of the senate. In the same way all probate and county judges are to be chosen. The governor, the secretary and the marshal are to redistrict the territory so that anti-Mormon votes shall have fair signifi- canoe. The governor and the council are to select all justices, sheriffs and constables, and all other county and district officials, and territorial school commissioner with ample powers to see that no Mormon meddling is allowed.
 It is, unfortunately, doubtful that this bill will become law at this session, for it will require much discussion, and the time is short. But the bill is in existence and will commend itself to those who are opposed to polygamy. It, or something like it, ought to be made a law as soon as possible.

shows that something more than mere in stinct has been brought into play.
 When the rattler is discovered asleep in the sun the birds are very careful not to disturb 1t, and proceed with great intelligence to collect the detached leaves of the prickly pear, ill which their nest is often built These they place in an irregular circle about the sleeping reptile, piline them up higher and higher, until finally the snake is in the center of n corral of the spine-covered leaves. Now the latter is awakened by peck from the bird, and strikes and is wounded by the spine. This enrages it, and every move adds to it's torture, until finally it is completely impaled by the horrible weapons that cover the leaves, and either dies from this cause or falls a ready victim to the powerful bill of the road runner. One of my informants stated that he watched the operations of a pair of these birds for several hours, during which time they hauled the leaves a considerable dis tance to pile them about their enemy. My other informant had never seen the birds at work, but in Arizona had frequently found the prickly pear corrals, in the center of which was the skeleton of rattlesnake. Instinct prompts the attack upon tho snake, but it is intelligence that dictates to the bird that the Prickly pear leaves bear spines that will be fatal to the reptile

THE CARICATUlsE PLANT.
A Botanic Development That May As-
 sist ArtIsts and Mimics.

ttrom the St. Nichoasl
 One of the most remarkable plants In the whole vegetable kingdom is that known to botnnists tho iustlcia picta which has also been well named the caricnture plant. At first sight it appears to be heavy, large leafed plant with purple blossoms, chiefly remarkable for tho light yellow centers of it's dark green leaves. When I first saw this odd plant and was thinking what q sickly, lighted appearance the queer, yellow stains gave it, waa suddenly impressed with the fact that the plant was making faces" at me. And my first impression was correct. This curious shrub had indeed occupied it self ill growing up in ridiculous caricatures of the human face divine" until it now stood covered from the topmost leaf down with the queerest faces imaginable. Nature had taken ts earioaturing. The flesh colored profiles stood out in strong relief against the dark green of the leaves. A discovery of one of these vegetable marks led to an ex- | animation of second and third leaf, until all were scanned ga closely and curiously as the leaves Of the comic papers that form | the oaricature plants of the literary king 1 dom. What a valuable plant this would be for one of our professional caricaturists to have growing in his conservatory. When an order was sent to him for speaking like l ness'' of some unhappy politician, he could simply visit his justica picta with pencil | and paper in hand and look over the leaves for a suitable squint, grin or distorted nose | to sketch from. He could, moreover, affirm | with truth that the portrait was taken l from nature" Cuthbert Collingwood, the
 celebrated naturalist, says of the justioia 1 picta: "One of these plants in tho garden of Gastave Dore would be worth fortune
 to him, supplying him with never failing
 fund of grotesque physlognomies, from
 which he might illustrate every serio- comic | romance ever written" I never heard oi l the cultivation of the caricature plant in this | country; but botanists tell that 1t is q | hardy shrub. 1 think we should be glad te
 see the funny faces on it's leaves. After all the lovely flowers we are called upon to ad
 rnire I aii sure that plant evidently inten-
 ded to make us laugh would receive c warm | welcome.
