IT IS amusing to see the Epitaph eat crow this morning. For the past two months it has been abusing c. C.. Bean in every manner possible, but in its last issue It comes out in the following language: "It is conceded that Hon. c. c. Bean will be nomi- hated for Congress at the Tucson convention to-day. MT. Bean is a jealous worker, and his two years ex- perience at the Capital better quail fies him for new term. He will un- doubtedly be reelected by hand some majority" THEToMBsToNE con CUTS in the language quoted above.

THE TOMBSTONE fails to see why the taxpayers of Cochise county g under any more obligations to L. V |. Blinn than they are to W. B. liar wood. MT. Harwood is tax payer of this county, and sixty days at Prescott will work just as great s hardship upon him as it will upon MT. Blinu. He did not seek the no imitation from his party two years ago, nor did he seek it this time, bu the pc, pie demanded that he be the nominee of his parly and we again reiterate that he deserves the thanks of the people of Cochise county. "This is point which the voters of this county irrespective Of party utilization, should not overlook in the heat of the campaign"

WHATS UP NOW Z

Following closely upon the collapse OF
the Fontslien impeachment trial comes the
ann ouncement that Mr.. Fred. l.. Gates has
resigned his Office as Judge of the
Twenty-first Judicial District, and that
Mr.. James Mouton of st. Martin
parish has been appointed to fill
the vacancy pending the holding of an
election which it is said the Governor will
shortly order in the District. The resigna-
ton of Judge Gates may have been induced
by ono or more of several different causes.
He may, for instance, have experienced a
changed of heart, and recognizing the
enormity of the political crime by which
he was elevated to the JudReship, decided
to enjoy no longer the fruits Of that grand
larceny; or, he may have feared the out
come of the contested election suit of Fon-
telieu Us. Gtatss and sought to evade it
by resignation. At all events, he has re-
signed, and stranger still, he does not ap-
pear to be an aspirant for election. The
Iberia Enterprise, paper that has upheld
the Gates cause all along, suggests Sena-
tor Breaux rs the mOstz proper candidate
in the district, indorsing him as one sans
pe,r ct sans .eprocle; yet this gentleman,
if we mistake not, is of counsel for Judge
Fontelieu in the contested election case and
sought to represent him in the impeach-
ment trial, but was not permitted to do so,
being himself member of the court be-
fore which the affair was pending.

ify our curiosity by explaining the true in
wardness Of the latest developments in the

GLADSTONE DEFEATED.

The Parliamentary elections being held
in Great Britain are resulting unfavorably
to the Liberal-Home Rule coalition led by
Messrs. Gladstone and Parnell. At latest
advices the Conservatives or Tories had
elected 299 members, their allies, the Lib
eral Unionists, 63, the Gladstonians 149
and the Parnellites Y, showing total of
221 supporters and 352 opponents of Mr..
Gladstone's plans for the amelioration of
the condition of the Irish people and the
establishment of a separate Parliament lat
Dublin.
1t is the opinion of astute observers, in
Great Britain and elsewhere, that the gov
ernment to be formed by the successful
Tory Unionist coalition will be short-lived,
and that the leading principles of the
home-rule scheme devised and advocated
by Mr.. Gladstone will be carried into effect
at no distant day, despite the present de.
feat. The necessity for the pacifcation of
Ireland grows constantly greater and the
English people will be compelled to recog-
it sooner or later as imperatively essential
to the safety and well being of the empire.

ADJOURNED,

The biennial session of the General AS
sembly of Louisiana expired by constitu-
tional limitation on Thursday, and both
houses adjourned sine die shortly before
midnight. Considerable business was dis
posed of during the closing hours of the
session, and the usual resolutions of thanks
to the officers we're adopted just before ad-
journment.
Opinions will differ largely as to the gen
eral character of the work done and left
undone by this Assembly, and while there
can be no question that it is answerable
the CHIEF is disposed to range itself with
those who give the members credit for the
good accomplished and feel thankful that
tho bad was no worse.
The acts and resolutions finally passed
by both branches of the General Assembly
are l25 in number. OF these forty four
have been approved by the Governor aud
promulgated in the official journal of the
State, thirty-one have been approved but
not yet published, and the remainder are
neither approved or promulgated.

berry and murder Of All Wan, alias Charley
Linden, was concluded at the st. James
courthouse, last Tuesday, in the presence
OF an audience that crowded the court room
to its fullest capacity. District Attorney
Gaudet and F. G. Zacharie, Esq, of New

Il. N. Sims, ESQ.,, for the accused. The
Chinese consul at New Orleans was present,
accompanied by a Chinese Prince who
acted as interpreter. The evidence ad-

benefit of bail to await trial at the next
criminal term of the District Court, which
will be held in February next.

Brooks was seen lodging about through

promptly nabbed him. It is thought he

What the call should BE.

To the Editor OF the indianapolis Journal
The call of yesterdays Journal for State
convention of the temperance men of the Re-
publican party, doubt not. is an honest effort
of good men to accomplish good work; but,
sir, will it not appear to these that it would
have been better to have headed the call for
State convention of all persons without the
name of party or the name temperance
who are opposed to dissipation and
in favor of sobriety, who oppose the
liquor league and an unrestrained saloon
traffic in Intoxicating drinks, or simply made q
call OF all who are opposed to the Liquor League!
This kind of call would have gathered together
thousands of earnest opponents of an unre-
strained liquor trafic-men who oppose an or
gaaization whose members have no political SEN
timents that they will not socrifce for the pur-
pose of defeating any party that favors any leg
islaticn that tends to diminish the amount
of Intoxicating drink made and used;
who spend money and use their per-
sonal and business influence to induce
voters to support tho party that promises them
no opposition. With call as broad as this men
would rally to who will not operate with any
so-called temperance organizations who will not
cooperate with any call denominated Repub-
lcan, and who look upon this call as an effort to
neutralize the prohibition movement. If my
suggestions be we'll founded and my differences
properly drawn, would it not be better to make
broader call, that larger body may meet and
a more efficient work may be accomplished; that
cause so good may not suffer from any impro-
priety by those who are devoted to the ends to
be accomplished. RoDERICK RANDOM

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.


To the Editor Of the Indianapolis journal:
If the Postmaster general would keep himself
as we'll posted as to the shortcomings of the
mail service in this region as he is said to in re-
gard to the doings of the postal clerks organiza
ton, it is barely possible that the two postal
cards which arrived in this city on the l., B. &
w. at 3:45 A. NJ, and bear postmark of Indian
arolis. June 80, A. NJ, one addressed to the
senders wife at his residence. the other to his
partner at his Office, would have been delivered
before the afternoon delivery. 1t is barely pos
sible also, that the two letters received
last night, bearing postmark INDIANAPOLIS,
July Z. 4 P. NJ, one mailed at Newark, N. j.. !,
June e. the other at West Chester, Pa, June
29 plainly addressed would have reached their
destination little sooner, if Mr.. Villas Ind been
as much interested in the success of tho public
service as in the putting down of the postal
clerks organization. The above are samples of
what we are experiencing every week. We shall
furnish a few more from time TO time as they
occur. w.
