patched-up peace at Roslyn, and all Of
the miners, white and black, to the num-
her Of nearly seven hundred, are now at
work. The disturbing element which has
been the cause Of all the trouble and
strikes in which the whites engaged have
left for other black diamond fields. The
white miners remaining, about two hun
dred, have gone to work in the same
mines with the darkies, but there Is no
affiliation between the two. Before the
whites resumed work concessions were
made, and now the miners receive u per
ton, when preceding the strike they were
paid tl.l5. Kongley, the manager Of the
mines, has gone east, but will return In
April, when he will be prepared to con-
tract with the white miners for yearly
work. By this means 1t is thought that
strikes will be obyiated. II satisfactory
arrangements can be made, the colored
miners will be worked exclusively in mine
No. 8. A new mine Is to be opened as
soon as possible, and the diamond drill
has again been called into play to fix
upon the proper location.
ANOTHER BUSINESS HoUsR.-H. Keuch-
Ter, late Of Pleasanton, CAL, has rented
the building on Yakima avenue, vacated
nv Goodwin, StTobach 4 Pugsley, and 10
having It TeaEranged and q new front
built preparatory to opening therein q
$4,000 stock Of jewelry, clocks and sill
verware, The PIeasanton, (Cal.) Star
thus speaks Of Mr.. Kuechler's change Of
base: "MT. H. Kuechler leaves for North
Yakima, Washington Territory, next
week. We much regret his leaving. He
Is workman Of fine abilities. We but
voice the sentiment Of the people Of this
section when we say that his going will
be deplored by all. What is our loss is
YGkima's gain. He goes from here not
because he did not do & good business,
but because he prefers a much larger ter
ritory. II attention to business and first
class abilities as q workman amount to
anything, he will succeed"
HARD LINES FOR OEVEcERs-E LEcT.-The
admission Of Washington upsets the cal
culations Of 4 good many people. The
terms Of the newly elected county officers
will be brief unless they are reelected at
the polls in October. Barring . possible
special session Of congress John B. Allen,
delegate-elect, will never take his seat,
and the members-Olect Of the territorial
legislature are in the same box, for, unless
the governor calls Q special session to pro-
vide for expenses Of the constitutional
convention and the apportionmsnt Of del
egates for the different districts, the honor
Of their election will be all that is left to
them unless II Is the incident Of expense
contracted in canvassing.
EMBEzzLED FROM THE COUNTY, Too
Wilson, the Roslyn justice Of the peace,
Is in for heap O. trouble. He now Ian
cuisines behind the bars for embeE1ling
the funds Of the Roslyn lodge Of knights
Of Labor, and when he gets through with
that scrape the county will be ready to
prefer charge. in his official capacity
Wilson was q terror to evil doors, for he
laid on the fines with much freedom, but
when It came TO dividing up the assets Of
the business with the county his generos-
ity all took one direction, and that was
towards himself. His populations are
said to cover very pretty figure.
