REFERRING to the exclusion of news
paper from the mails at San Francisco be-
cause of a church or society lottery an
nouncement in the columns of the journal,
a clergyman is quoted as saying:
certainly think it is straining the law to
make it applicable to small drawing in aid of
a grand charity. In all the Courts Judges allow
a great deal of latitude in interpreting the let
ter of the law, aiming rather to enforce its
spirit. The lottery law was designed to resch
an evil. and in spirit its trainers never intended
lis application to children and their toys.
Rev. Mr. Connolly, of st. John the Bap-
fist Church, certainly ought to know, if he
does not, that the law cannot make any
distinction in favor of lotteries for charity
or the church. If it is wrong to gamble
at lottery drawing, it can make no sort of
difference whatever that the profits of the
drawing are to De used in charity. The
laws of the State specify as illegal all
manner of drawings and gift enterprises,
no matter in what form they are arranged,
or by whom, so long as the element of
chance enters in. The Rev. Mr.. Connolly
ought to know, if he does not, that the
one and great stumbling-block in the way
of enforcing the anti-lottery laws, has been
and is the church. Every man in the
State knows that this is true; that the
complaint has been uniformly and is that
so long as church fairs and charity associ-
| ations are permitted to run lottery games,
it is unjust and impossible to proceed
against larger games. The reverend gen.
tleman must know that the lottery under
the cover of religion and charity is in
fnitely more dangerous in its teachings
than the money lotteries of Louisiana and
Mexico. The gambling taste is as easily
cultivated under the cover of the church
lottery as any other-indeed more easily
and dangerously. The clergyman who
pleads for license for the church to violate
the law of the land is unworthy of his
| cloth

DEATH ny DROWNING.
Boise Statesman. s.i.

During the forenoon of yesterday
Mr.. w. +. Somercamp, ST., of Silver
City, and his son Henry. were engag-
cd on their mining property, situated
near the DeLamar mine, in Owyhee
county, in measuring some ground
from certain point to the mouth OF
deep shaft. On reaching the edge
OF the shaft, Mr.. Somercamp, whose
age is we'll up in the seventies, miss
cd his footing, and stumbling over
boulde,s fell head foremost into the
shaft, which is forty feet deep and
having depth OF fifteen feet Of wa
ter in it. Henry being powefless to
give any assistance with any means
st hand, his father called to him and
told him to go for rope and for as
sistance. This required the young
man to go to the DeLamar mine, the
only point where help could be OBJ
tanned. On making his errand known
the entire force at the DeLamar nine
turned out and made all possible
speed to the scene OF the disaster, but
on reaching the shaft and calling out
tho name Of the unfortunate man,
they received no answer. The old
gentleman in falling had struck his
head against the walls of the shaft
and had sunk to the bottom, where
the body lay until hooks were pro-
cured aud the bottom OF the shaft
dragged, when the body was recov-
cred still warm and bleeding from the
wounds received in falling.
In the meantime the oldest son, w.
+. Somercamp, Jr., who was at Silver
City, had been appraised Of the acct
dent by telephone and arrived on the
grousd just as tho body of his father
was being taken out Of the shaft.
Deceased was one Of Idaho's Oldest
and most highly esteemed pioneers,
having resided continuously in Silver
City since the advent of the earliest
miners to that camp. He has been
foremost of those engaged in stock
raising, mining and other occupations
incident TO the lives OF the pioneers
in this country, He was, at the time
OF his death, the owner OF group of
of very valuable mines, situated near
the famous DcLassar mines, and had
latterly been devoting all his energies
to the development of very promising
mining property. He leaves wife
and several children to mourn his sad
fate.

Tue Central American War.

Ii seems rather strange that so
soon after the Central American
States had participated in an interna.
tional congress TO promote friendly
relations between them, and the con.
gress had declared in favor of arbi-
tration to settle all their differences,
there should be war between two or
more OF them. But so ii is, and its
occurrence serves to show the futllity
OF abstract or sentimental declara.
tons of policy to restrain the ambi.
tons or prevent the aggressions OF
nations.
The present trouble between
Guatemala and San Salvador grows
out OF the attempt of Guatemala to
force political union of the Central
American States. Guatemala is the
preponderating state of Central
America in population and other
resources, and San Salvador is the
smallest. The late President of San
Salvador, Menendez, was persuaded
to sign the treaty of union, but he
was soon thereafter assassinated, and
the Congress of his State did not rat
lfy the treaty. His successor, Ezeta.
is opposed to the treaty, and Guate-
mala demands his deposition. Guat.
emala has an ally in Honduras, and
Nicaragua and Costa Rica have an
alliance offensive and defensive with
San Salvador. The three latter all

Guatemala in the proposed union.

Demerara News.
From the Arg0sy, Oct. IL

Since the opening Of the Gold Industry
there has been nothing more sensational
III the way of finds than that reported this
week to Mr.. ShervingtOn from one of his
placerS IN the upper Essequebo. In our
last number we referred to q piece Of very
rich quartz which had been brought to him
from the placer. This was brought by the
manage OF the placer, who had left Il man
an his place to Superintend the working of
81 single tom. The manager is still in vii
and it surprised Mr.. ShcrVingt0n TO get ID
message III the beginning of this week
from Bartica to the effect that the acting
manager had arrived there and had been
arrested for selling gold quartz to some
StOrekeeperS and others, he being unable to
account for the possession OF the same.
When Mr.. ShervingtOn arrived at tho
Grove he found that the man had brought
with HIM both quartz and gold, and that it
was the quartz only that he had been dis
posing OF at prices to suit his necessity.
The gold he had duly registered with Mr..
McIurk. 1t amounted to II lbs. in weight
and was the result Of one tom tcorked By
fre men TOR three days. Four pounds of gold
a day! 1t is in large heavy pieces, ~ if it
had been baked into cakes. The Magistrate
sentenced the quartz-seller to a fine of $24
or one months imprisonment. Mr.. Sher-
vingtOn said he would pay the fine if the
man would say what he had lone with the
quartz. This was agreed to, and the quartz
was found SeCreted under the bed Of "a lady
friend. The quartz is simply laden with
gold; and Mr.. Shervington has made pre-
parations for having the lode measured
But irrespective OF the quartz the placer in
free gold seems TO be a store of wealth.

world is so wide that it will not be long before
any extra demand is met by extended cultiva-
ton Of sugar, and prices will come down
again. An artificial rises of that kind are in
flct soon levelled by the operation of general
laws. It mas been pointed out to us that there
will be some saving in the expenses of ware
housing the sugars, for which bonded ware
houses will be no longer necessary, and also
that brokers' commissions will be charged
on smaller values, that is on the actual value
Of the sugar, not, as now, on the value plus
duty. In these ways, of course, there may be
some advantages for a time but even these,
like all other advantages, will tend to vanish
under the pressure of competition. That
there will be some advantage in the new state
Of things, for a time at least, is probable btS
it seems to us to be the soundest policy to
look for our advancement, not from tariff
changes, but from a logged determination to
improve our agricultural and manufacturing

Echoes Of the excitement over the Nc. Kihley
Bill reach us not tnly from the United States
themselves, but from Europe and Canada and
from the other West India Islands. Europe
and Canada consider themselves injured by
the Bill. The West Indies, and presumably
the South American countries also, consider
themselves to be benefited by it. The opinions
Of journalists differ much as to the effects of
the measure, and we note that one American
expert says, in regard to sugar, that it is i'm
possible to predict the results. Where those
most capable of Judging are so cautious and
apparently SO uncertain, it may seem unrea-
sonable in us to venture any remrks on the
subject. On elementary principles, however,
it does seem to us that West Indians, at any
rate in Santa Cruz, are expecting too much
from the passage of the Mckinley Bill. Some
speak as though a considerable part of the
duty which will presumably be removed from
our sugars from the 1st of March next will go
into our own pockets. But why should it?
It is said that sugar being cheaper in the
States a greater demand will be created. True,
but the very supposition that sugar is to be
cheaper assumes that the consumers are
to be the parties mostly benefited. That
there may be a slight rise for a time is proba-
bly, true, and it is impossible to say what
rise may be necessary to draw in the addition
al stock that may be needed; but the sugar
