RIPARIAN 0vsERsulP.

The Silver State calls attention ic
= recent riparian decision OF the Sr-
p-eme Court OF California, and call.
upon Nevada to adopt the decision
as TIE law OF the State.
The Silver State ought TO bear IN
mind that there are other interest Is
in Nevada outside the wealthy cat
tie kings of Humboldt county, who
have for years been endeavoripg TO
establish that settlers along the
banks of a stream cannot use water
for irrigation.
Nevada cannot afford 10 adopt so
dangerous q doctrine. RipaTia'
ownership is an English PROPOSE
ton, where the ciimats is mos,
and there is too much water. We
have different climatic conditions
here in Nevada; different from.
England, different from California
The riparian doctrine provides thai
water shall be allowed to flow
through land, and if taken it must
be returned To the stream '.undi-
minished i'll quantity and unim-
paired in quality" How can this
be accomplished and any irrigation
be effected? Ii simply prohibits
the use OF the water by anyone ex-
cept the man, who is situated
nearest tho mouth of the stream.
Even if he has ten times wha: water
he needs, those above him with
their ranches drying up and their
fields whitening with drought, can
not touch u drop OF water without
being subject to 3 suit for dam
ages.
IL 10 IIG
will set the State Of Nevada back |
ten years in the march of improve
ment if adopted 1t will help few
dog-in -the-manger men, who hate
to see anyone prosper but tEeui-
selves, but it will prevent any irfi-
CATION being dore SO long as therg
is a do.-in-the-rnanger man on the
stream to object.
The Silver State in endorsing this
must have been imposed
on by some greedy lawyer who
hungers for the fees OF . man who
wants to hog the waters Of whole
river.

Emancipation in Brazil.

A large number Of planters in Brazil

own petafd. Two years ago "A law was
passed providing for the gradual emanc:-

still contains large number. One of the
provisions of this law was that every
STAKEHOLDER should register the number
and individual value of his slaves and the
period allowed for this registration ex
pired at the end Of March last On the
registers being overhauled il appeared that
only relatively small proportion of the
slaves in the country had been declared.
The bulk of them had been omitted in
order that their owners might escape the
small registration fee To be paid on each
shave. As many of the planters own large
numbers of slaves the saving to them was
considerable Every slave not registered.

THE ANDREW JACKSONS.

CHICAGO, Jan g-The Andrew Jackson
league, new political organization which
was recently formed in this eity, gave its
first public meeting tonight at Central
Music hall. The chief event of the evening
was the speech of Hon. W. c. Cloudy, a
prominent lawyer of this city Mr.
Goudy's subject was law. After showing
that festrsissts and. regulations applied to
nearly every person and pssrsalf6 in life,
Mr. Gouuy said: "But there is one notable
exception. THE greatest power n civilized
society to-day is that Of the press,
and it is. practically unrestrained
and free from regulation by law
This force makes and unmakes
presidents, governors, senators, representa-
tiyes in congress, legislatures, judges and
all officers in our complex system of gov
eminent. 1t is superior to the executive.
legislative and judicial authority, because
it creates and destroys them. BY the same
means it enacts and enforces or defeats
laws, Private reputation private proper
ty. depends upon this immesurable force
In short, the Influence of the daily and
weekly newspapers and monthly periodi-
Gals is omnipotent and omniprescent. This
power, however, is as potent for good as
evil. Who exercises this immense
power? The press; the news
papers. But it is wholly impersonal, and
therein lies the danger. The writer may
be Governor Hawley who represents his
state in the United States senate, or the
boy just out of college earning his ten dol
lars per week. There may be apparent
editorial articles, but in fact written to
further some corrupt scheme. for which
81 Il line is paid. As a remedy for these
alleged evils Mr.. Goudy advised the enact
ment of statute which would require
that the name of the writer of every arti-
Gle, be it editorial, communication or
news, be given with it.

THE SUPREME COURT.

WASHINGTON, Jan. "a decision was
rendered by the United States supreme
court today in the postmasters' salary case
of the United States, eX-rel j. X. McLeans,
VS. VIM. F. Villas, postmaster general
This was a suit for writ of mandamus to
compelled the postmaster general to read
Just the salaries OF postmasters or the
lower grades in accordance with the ae-
counts OF July 1st, 1864, June 12th, 1866
and March 31st. 1883. This court agrees
with the postmaster general in his under
standing and construction of them and
holds that congress did not contemplate are
adjustment of the salaries of any OF these
officers oftener than once in two years, a
legal duty or obligation on the part OF the
postmaster general. The Judgment OF the
supreme court of the District of Columbia
is affirmed.
The attorney general of Missouri sub
mitted a motion to dismiss for want of
Jurisdiction the case of Hugh Brooks,
alias Maxwell, who is now in prison in
St Louis under sentence of death for the
murder of Charles A. Preiler. The attor-
new general maintains that the case does
not present a federal question and this
court cannot take jurisdiction of it.
Counsel for the prisoner argue, iii a
vol,,rninous brief, that the case does
present federal questions for the reasons:
First, that upon the trial the validity OF a
statute OF the state of Missouri was
called into question on the ground OF
its repu gn;,nce to the constitution of the
United States Second that the prisoner
was induced by means of conspiracy
and plot to testify against himself con
trary to the prohibition and guaranty Of
the fourteenth amendment. Third, owing
to a defect in the Indictment, subsequently
remedied by the counsel the prisoner is
about to be deprived of his
life without due process Of law.
Counsel for the prisoner urge q number of
other reasons for asking this court to take
jurisdiction Of the case, many of them be-
ing similar TO those which We're urged in
the case of the Chicago anarchists TIE mo
tion Of the attorney general of Missouri has
Virtually the effect of bringing Maxwell 5
case before this court at once on its merits,
and il the motion TO dismiss be granted ii
will of course be equivaient to an affirma-
ton OF the sentence Of death pronounced
by the state court. The court viii adjourn

ASSIGNED.

New YORK, fan 9-William H. De
Forest, a wholesale dealer in silk, doing
business on Broom street, today assigned
to Geo X. Sheldon, giving preferences of
more than 100000. De Forest was the
agent in this country for the silk manu-
featuring house of A. Gucne & Co.. Of
France In his statement TO Bradstreets

property under date of April ) at 81 ,U26, 900
over and above a mortgage of Ss1000o. He
also est mated real estate equities at $3.50
600. making total OF Il $40, 000 liabilities
on endorsements, $4I2. 900: on his business,
Sl10y0O0: net worth, SS94, o00. Since he
made this statement his real estate was
supposed to have improved and he has
sold a portion OF il, receiving $4,000 for
one block
Mr.. DeForest was also engaged in extern
sive building operations ON his property.
Through huilders he endorsed largely, and
il is said that many of the notes are about
TO fall due and he was unable 70 raise the
money 10 meet them What his liabilities
are is a matter of conjecture at present.
He had been winding up mis- silk business
