Petitioning for Pardon.

A petition is in circulation, and nu-
merously signed, to the Board of Par

fine imposed upon John Walker at the
last term of Court. All the Grand

reputation as a good, peaceable man,
was above repr0ach prior to the COM
mission of the act for which he was
indicted fusing deadly weapon with
intent To do great bodily harm) and
that was under excitement and great
provoeation. We believe the enis of
Justice in his case have already
been fully satisfied, and that a
remission of the fine and release from
prison would be the proper thing.
Where so many bad men escape pun
ishment for high crimes through the
technicalties of the law, or the sharp
practice of lawyers, it looks hard TO
see good man suffer uDdue punish

but threatening in its nature, no injury
having been done. We hope the par

applicant is worthy subject for such

Water Rights.

It is reported, snys the Silver State,
that the farmers of Big Meadows,
near the sink Of the Humboldt, have
settled their differences and decided
to bring suit to determine their right
to a reasonable share of the waters of
Humboldt river for irrigating pur-
poses. This, it is believed, will be
one of the most important and holly
contested suits ever brought in Ne
yada, and il will involve the settle
ment of many questions of vital in
terest to farmers along the Humboldt.
There is no statutory law in Ne
vada relating to water rights, and the
Courts will have to decide whether
the riparian doctrine, or that Of ap-
preparation, as established by custom,
shall prevail. 1t seems that Nevada
sclons have never troubled themselves
with "a thought of water, so long as
there was stronger fluid obtainable,
and the question will have to be set
tied by the Courts. In view of such
contingency, the people should con-
slider whether man who, while Dis
trict Judge, showed his ignorance o.
the law by sentencing prisoner to
fourteen years in the State Prison for
manslaughter, when the extreme pen
atty fixed by law for the offense was
ten years, is proper person 10 place
on the Supreme Bench to adjudicate
the important question of water rights.

Washoe Wins.

Judge Bigelow has filed his opinion
in the tax suit of Washoe county, vs..
the Central P acific Railroad. The
question was raised on demurrer to
the defendants answer. The COM
pany claimed that the lands were not
subject to taxation for the reason that
the lands have never been listed to
the company by the general Govern
ment, and in its answer denied any
title save that conveyed by the Acts
of 1852 and 1854, granting aid to the
Pacific RAILROADS, and, of courae, claim
ing that such title was contingent
only, and therefore the lands could
not be taxed. Judge Bigelow holds
otherwise, and declares the lands
taxable.

Elyria,O., REPUBLICANS. The Demo
Gratis, during all the years they have
controlled the House, have not passed a
single measure of any Importance re.

Republicans since the protective tariff
was enacted have passed measures, that

One of the marked features of this
campaign is the general drift Of the la

reasons for this observes the Olean, New

Legislators and executors, to every mea.

for the betterment of their condition.
