Washington the Sheriff arrested
him and brought him here, where
he still remains in Jail.
The democratic authorities on
some legal bubble refuse to release
Morrison on bail, and their object is
clearly to keep him confined so that
he cannot conduct his post Office.
Ii the United States authorities
should step in and release Morrison
the "chivalry" say they will lynch
him rather than see him in control
of the post Office.

THE official trial trip Of the Charleston
has been completed and the. ship has returned
to port, with her officers not only thoroughly
satisfied with her performances at sea, but
exceedingly proud Of the FIRST war vessel
built upon the Pacific coast. Not only has
the Charleston proved to be an excellent sea-
boat, but the firing Of her heavy batteries
did not in the slightest degree affect her
as the Rear Admiral expresses it, "not SO
much as a crack in the pain. resulted" The
batteries also proved to be we'll mounted
and to give accurate results in target firing.
1t is agreed by the officers of the ship that
there is no record Of better gunnery on a
trial trip in the history Of the navy. Cali
fornians have reason to be proud of such a
report. 1t is pride that is wholesome to
cultivate, since it stimulates patriotism and
encourages attachment to State Interests. 1t
is now demonstrated that the mechanical
works Of the State are equal to any demand
that may be made upon them for naval con-
struction, and this fact now places the State
in the list Of regular bidders for such work,
and gives it standing at the East and com.
1nands respect for it that are Of exceeding
value.

UTAH, according to the local press, is out
of fat cattle and fat sheep. This is a bad
showing for territory where irrigatitn IS SO
extensively carried on and where bay ought
to be abundant. Shipping beef from Ne
braska to Utah is good enough for Nebraska,
but bad for Utah. And there is no
excuse for il, because Utah hay will fatten
cattle in that climate as we'll as corn will in
Nebraska. With thousands Of acres Of irri.
gable lands that will produce an average Of
five tons of alfalfa per acre-enough to fatten
two steers--beef should be abundant all the
year round and of the juiciest quality. Mend
your ways, brethren.

THE Republicans Of the House and Senate
have agreed npon basis for preparation
of silver bill. The bill provides for the
purchase Of silver bullion aggregating 4,soo,.
600 ounces OF pure silver each month, and
the issue in payment Of treasuary notes re-
deemable on demand ip lawful money and
when so redeemed the same may be reissued,
but no greater or less amount of such notes
shall be outstanding at any time than the cost
OF the silver bullion then held in the treasury,
purchased by such notes. Upon demand Of
the holder the Secretary may redeem the
notes to the amount Of the silver bullion
which equal in value at the market price
thereof on the day Of exchange. The Sec
Rotary Of the Treasury shall coin such por.
ton Of this silver bullion IS is necessary to
provide for the redemption of the treasury
notes. The provision Of the law requiring
the monthly purchase and coinage Of s., ooo,-
900 worth Of silver is repealed, Senator
Teller, Of the Senate Subcommittee, dis
sented. Later he said he would make an
effort to secure free silver coinage, and fail
ing in that when the measure comes up in
the Senate he would move to make the GER
ti6eates legal tender.

Of Judge Hunt-Court Record
The School Land Casa

The state board Of equalization was In
session yesterday and the most important
matter before that body was the considers
ton Of the appointment pro rata Of the
school assessment ON the property Of rail-
roads passing through school districts. The
school superintendents in the counties Of
Nissoula, Custer, Madison and MeaRher
have 20 far.failed TO supply the board with
the necessary information. What tho board
wants il . statement Of tho boundaries Of
the school districts In each county and the
number Of miles Of railroad passing through
the said districts. The clerk Of the board
was instructed 10 make ANAL demand for
this information and IL it 10 not forthoom-
ing promptly the neglected counties will
have to go without that portion Of the school
money included in the railroad assessment.
While down at Custer county two weeks ago
the county surveyor was ordered to make
the necessary surveys OF the school dis
tricts through which the railroad passes
and Attorney General Haskell is Of the
opinion that the surveyor has begun sur
vey Of every school district in that extern
sive county. In other counties it is COM
planned that the surveyors are dilatory in
performing their work, anent which State
Treasurer Hickman asked, "What are coun-
ty surveyors elected for?'' and DR.. Rotwitt
sagely replied, ITO draw 81 per day"
The assessment blank Of the Montana
Of their road at $586, GOO in these four coun-
ties was laid over for future confederation y
Blanks giving the boundaries Of cities in
Montana and the number of miles of rail-
road within the boundaries were ordered
forwarded after which the board adjourned.
