SNOW SLIDE AND AVALANCHE.
Three More Men Buried in Colorado
Avalanche at Kansas City.

Three More Men Buried in Colorado
Avalanche at Kansas City.
CRESTED BUTTE. Colo, March 49,
Another snow slide horror was reported
yesterday morning. This time it is the
Eureka mine on Treasury mountain.
Charles Devine, ]. C.. McQuarrie and
Joseph Mccullough, the entire force on
the mine, were killed and their bodies are
covered by the snow. S. C. Robinson,
who is having the property worked, went
up there Monday from here and found the
cabin locked up and in good shape, but
the men were gone and the supposition is
that they had started to come down. 1t
is not known when they were killed or
where to look for the bodies, and it is not
ut all unlikely that their remains will
stay under the snow until the bare ground
in the summer reveals them.

Three Vessels Ashore and Two of Them
Probably Past Saving.
WASHINGTON CITY, March 17.-Three
vessels of the United States navy are now
ashore along the coast of Martha's Vim
yard, the Galena, the Nina and the Tri-
ana. The latter vessel, the navy depart
ment is informed, went ashore off Guilty
Hunk Sunday. She is in n very
dangerous position, and if the weather
continues rough may become total
loss. A dispatch from Lieut.. Com.
mander Bicknell, in command of the
Galena at the time she went ashore. states
that the Galena lost her rudder post and
part of her keel. He expressed the hope
that the Nina would be saved if the
weather was favorable. No mention was
made of saving the Galena and at the
navy department she is regarded as
totally lost. No lives were lost.

Owosso, March I'd, 81.
/ enclose few ideas with regard to some
of the questions you ask.
list. Taking the history of the business
of the country as it can be gathered from the
newspapers, with the large amount of gold
coming from Europe, 1t would seem that
there was sufficient amount to do the bus
iness of the country and that is all we need,
as more than that always tends to deprecia-
ton. Many of your readers no doubt re-
member what was called "wild cat times"
when although there was plenty of money,
it was so badly deprecated that $500 of it
would hardly buy meal of victuals. EX-
perience seems to show that about the best
plan is to,have just as near enough money
to do the business as it can be gotten at and
to have what there is on the very best
foundation possible.
9Th. On the principle that the Judgment
of twelve men would be likely to be worth
more than that of eight, / should say that
the verdict of majority would not meet
the ends of justice as well as q unanimous
verdict. There are often cases i'm which
there can hardly help being a doubt in the
minds of the wisest jurors. In such cases
it would be an easy matter to render an
unjust verdict if it was left to majority of
of the jury
9th. think they should from the fact
that as the Office is one which pays large
salary, there is quite an inducement for un-
principled men to use money in corrupting
the members of the legislature, whereas If
they were elected by direct vote of the
people there would not be the same chance
for corruption.
9th. Most assuredly not. Railroad COM
panies are not so foolish as to give people
free rides unless they are likely to be bene-
fitted by it, Ii man is elected to the legis-
lature the people expect him to be at his
post and to look out for their interests in
stead of riding back and forth on free
railway pass. The man who has free pass
in his pocket certainly can not feel as little
under obligation to a railroad company as
the man who has paid for his ride and asks
no odds of them.
10Th. In geographical sense, do. 1t
would divide the territory more equally
than at present and if the people in those
towns are in favor of it, do not see why
anyone in Shiawassee county should object.
18th. The location, railroad facilities,
hotel accommodations and other advantages
make Owosso decidedly the most proper
place for the county seat, and yet to remove
it would be an injustice to Corunna, as that
is all she has to depend on. Would not the
better plan be to unite the two places in one
city, build the boulevard spoken of in late
issue of TIE TIMES, then put the county
buildings about midway between the two
as they now arc and with a line of street
cars, The county seat question would be
fairly ana easily settled. Yours truly,
