Prosperous Carbon County.
1Rawlinz RenuhIIcap

An examination of the records in the
county clerks office shows that only fifty
one chattel mortgages have been filed
since the new law went into effect. Janua-
ry 7. For a period of almost six months
in a county az large as Carbon this is an
exceptionally good showing. 1t shows
that money is not in very great demand
and that a very small percentage of the
chattels in Carbon county are plastered.
If the number of mortgages on file were
double what it is. it would yet represent a
very small proportion of the property in
the county covered by chattel mortgage.

A NEIGHsoRHooD RUCrIoN.
Cold Water, Bad Blood and a Pistol
Shot Involved IN 1t.

About 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
neighborhoOd of Sixteenth street just
across the Cheyenne 4 Northern track
was thrown into great excitement by the
report OF a pistol shot. NJ. Swartz
had taken a shot at his neighbor. W. D..
Murray. but luckily for himself and Muir
ray, missed him.
Swartz is said to be a man Of violent
temper, and was thrown into a frenzy by
two Of Mr.. Murray's dogs jumping over
into his yard. Mrs. Murray was looking
out of the window at the time, and &C
cOrding to the story he commenced to Witty
her, when, womanhke, she grabbed a
bucket OF water and poured the contents
On Swartz's head. The cold water had an
irritating rather than a depressing effect
on Swartz, and he redoubled his abuse.
Just then Mr.. Murray came home and
his wife told him OF Swartz's abuse. He
asked Swartz what he had called his wife,
and Swartz repeated the words. Murray
then got mad, and picking up a stone
hurle | it at his neighbor. striking him in
the stomach. That made Swartz still
madden, and he rushed into the house,
picked up a big Remington s~ix-shooter
and fired one shot at his antagonist.
Murray saw the man with the gun and
lodged around the corner of the house
and escaped uniniured. Swartz was
apparently satisfied that he had avenged
his wounded stomach and did not follow
with another attack. Murray rushed
into the house after his gun but luckily
his wife had had presence of mind enough
to hide the revolver.
Murray then came up town and had q
warrant issued for Swartz who wa:
arrested by Deputy Sharpless and lodged
in jail. He came along peacably and wa:
much astonished at being arrested. He
claims that he did not know whether he
aimed at Murray or not, he was so badly
excited; he remembers firing the shot but
the act with him Is but a dim recollection.

IL his able speech on silver, made at
Paulding, Ohio, last week, Senator John
sherman clearly states the object Of the
law passed by the last Congress regard
ing the coinage Of silver in the follow
ing manner:
To proyide a market for our silver and Tor
an increase OF currency il directed the pur-
chase of 4. 500 900 ounces Of fne silver eAen
month. making 54,000,Ou0 ounces year, al
It's market value, and upon the security OF
this TO issue legal tender Treasury notes lof
the full amount Of the cost OF the SILVER,
thus giving a stable market for all and more
80 ne silver produced in the United States,
and At the same time furnishing to the
Deople an increase Of circulating money
yrsster than the increase Of our popuistlon.
| fnoW believe the measure will work out the
most beneficial results. IL will tend 70 ad-
vance silver 10 its old parity with goio- IL
/ has already advanced the value of our vast
sfore Of silver in the Treasury. 1t has ilr-
nisbed an increase Of circulation IL has
maintained the gold standard while uulizihg
and benefitting silver 70 the utmost extent
short Of demonetizing gold. II IS the Key 70
our exalted, almost pre-eminent, standlhg
| in commercial credit and national honor
among the lhllDDS VI ~
both silver and gold. like all other eommod-
ities or productions, a. subject to the unlFer-
sal rule of being worth what they viii BRING
| in the markets Of the world.
Then he proceeds to define the effect
of free coinage, tersely and lueidly, as
follows;
! Free coinage means that we shall purchass
not merely 4. 500 600 ounces q month, but al
the silver that Is offered, come from where i
NAV. if presented in quantities OF 100 ounces
at 4 time. We are to give to the holdei
| either coin OF Treasury notes, at hls optloh
al the rate Of 81 for every 81 grains, now
worth In the market Il cents. Who can e.
innate the untold boards of silver thai WI
come into the Treasury if this policy II
| adopted? Ali Of this will be represented oy
our Treasury notes-sn increase OF th'
national debt.
These arguments should at once attrac'
the attention of the farmers and laboren
of the country, who will derive no bene
fit whatever from the unlimited coinage
of silver. for the simple reason that they
will receive pay for their products and
labor in silver dollars with less purchAs
ing power, while the capitalists and spec
ulators may protect themselves by stipu
lating for gold payments.

Gregg $ Politics.

From the Harrisburg Telegraph.
When Delegate Plank. from Reading arose
in the Republican State Convention and as
sailed the Republicsnism Of General Gregg,
be evidently did not know what be was
talking about. He said that General Gregg
had repeatedly and recently voted the Demo
cratic ticket. This was miserable lie, and
worthy of despicSble time-serTer who de-
manded better paying Office as the prlce oil
bis keeping his mouth of General Gregg.
silly Democratic organs all over the State at
once took up the cry Gregg iss Democrat
and they affected to be in high glee over
what they termed Republican blunder.
WASH blunder? Well, not much. The
editor of the Scranton Republican, anxious
to set at rest for good all these stories about
the gallant Gregg, wrote 10 him and asked
him pOintedly concerning their truth Here
Is General Gregg's letter in reply
sREApING, Pa, Aug. 25- 1881. 10 ne
Editor Scranton Replfblioda-MY DEAk cik;
In reply 70 yours of the 24th inst. can
only reiterate what ! have heretofore SAID,
and that IS. that the only vote ever csSt oy

dent, was that for my lifelong friend and
fellow soldier, General Hancock. DO Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor OF fennsylya-
MIA ever received my vote.
Yours sincerely, ID. Men. GRESs."
This settles the matter. Plank and his
Democratic allies viii have to change their
tune. They can no longer sing the old song.
General Gregg never sank his manhood in
Joining the Democracy, and the people
homer him all the more that be voted for his
lifelong friend and old comrsde on the

TIE investigation into State Treasury
affairs by the Joint Legislative Commit
tee must have been disappointing 70 Mr..
Fox. That gentleman and some other
Democratic members Of the Legislature
intimated that some crookedness could
be found in the Treasurer's Office lift was
sought for in the right way. The search
was diligently prosecuted and the money
counted. The books were found to bal
ance and the States cash was all IN the
proper depositories. Mr.. Fow himself
and Senator Monaghan carefully exam
ined and compared the sworn return OF
the Treasurer with the individual bank
accounts in the books, and at the concln-
sion Mr.. Fow stated that they had COM
pared both the sinking fund and general
account and found everything correct.
They found the system Of bookkeeping
adopted by the State Treasury thorough,
complete and accurate in every respect,
and felt impelled to praise Mr.. Boyer.
The insinuations of irregularities in the
Treasurer's Office had no basis Of fact
They were all wind. The result Of the
investigation is at once gratifying to the
people Of the State and complimentary
