A PENSION OnpITY.

G. A. Davis of Maiden, a Disabled Union Veteran, Cannot Get a Pen sion, While 6. B. maxey, an ex, Rebel, Gets Twelve Dollars a Month
 BOSTON, Sept. 14.-G. A. Davis of Nal den, grsy-hsired veteran of the Army oi the Potomac, 8 survivor of twenty-five battles, an always brave and willing sol. dier, is an applicant for 8 pension whose claim has been contemptuously tossed aside.
 MT. Davis enlisted in K company, First Heavy Artillery, at Salem, July 20, 1862. Hewas present at the second Battle of Bull Run, the regiment then being under Gen. ersl Pope. In May, 1888, 1t formed a DOT. ton of one of the brigades sent to General Grant. The regiment participated in the three last days of the battle of the Wilder. ness, was at Spottsylvanis, Baldwin Green and North Ann. It took an act. i've part in all the fighting which resulted in the capture of Peters burg, was at Cold Harbor and at the battle of the Weldon R. R. In all the lighting which had It's climax In the tri- umphant entry into the capital of the Con federacy 1t took a memorable part which has become history.
 his claim for a pension was made in July, 1892. He was examined and the physicians were thoroughly satisfied that he was disabled. They asked for proof that he did not bring on these diseases by his own habits. This proof was furnished and finally in July of this year the decision mot disabled in a pensionable degree" came back.
 That his character Is of the highest is shown by the testimony of all who know him.
 While MT. Davis suffers constantly and Is unable to obtain any relief from the government, s. B. Maxey, late United States senator from Texas, has been drawing his pension since May 27, 1887. He had long and brilliant service during the war, also. He rose to the rank of major general. He did his fighting against the government, while Mr. Davis was on the right side. It seems strange now that Maxey gets pension and Davis does not

CZECH JOURNALS SUSPENDED. Public Assemblies VIII be Prohibited
 Young Czechs Indignant.
 PRAGUE, Sept. 14.-In accordance with the imperial decree issued yesterday, sus- pending Articles 12 and 13 of the consti- tional law in this city and its suburbs, five Young Czsch journals, the utterances of which were offensive to the government have been suspended. In order to be cer- tain that no further adverse comments upon the imperial decree shall be published the government has ordered that all ar ticles intended for publication in Czech papers must be submitted to the police for approval or rejection three hours before the papers go to press.
 One of the provisions of the suspended law has reference to public assemblies. Clubs have been construed to come under this head and several club houses have been closed and the funds and papers of the organizations seized. The Young Czechs are indignant at the action of the imperial government, and there Is much suppressed excitement among that political group. The authorities are vigilant, how ever, and it Is scarcely believed that the anti German agitation will go much beyond legitimate bounds.

Would Prove a Good Law.

It might be a good idea for the in
coming Nevada Legislature, which
meets in Carson on Monday next, to
pass a law compelling all locators of
mining claims to do assessment work
within sixty days after the location is
made. The prosperity of certain parts
of Nevada depends largely upon the
mining industry, and such a law would
put stop to lot of impecunious hogs
found in every mining camp, who are
in the habit of stalking off an entire
mining district, with no intention of
developing, the same, but merely to
hold the ground in allegiance and pre-
vent development. The mining indus
try is hampered in no small degree by
the present law regarding locations,
and it's repeal and passage of one as
suggested would prove beneficial to the
live mining population of the State. :

A Blooming Camp.

Frank Burk who was in Ely a
month ago has been writing up this
section in the Salt Lake Tribune, and
to say that he looks at it through rose
colored spectacles is drawing it mild.
He says so many good things about
Robinson District that it is difficult
matter to make selection and we
would fain publish the letter entire,
but it's great length stands in the way.
Speaking of the Monanch owned by
R. A. Riepe he says: "This, according
to old miners, is better looking pro-
position than Butte was when the now
famous Anaconda was first started. "
Further on he says: Ito understand
the great untold resources of this coun-
try, person should visit it and see for
himself. simply give meager out
line of what was seen in a five days
soiourn where other business serious
ly interfered with the work of looking
up prospects. One thing is certain,
that if the long talked-of railroad
comes through the valley here, Ely
will far surpass the most sanguine ex-
pectations of her warmest admirers. "
And Ely gets this send off: "The town
is we'll built for dull Nevada camp,
the public buildings and private re-
sidences being of such character as
to elicit praise from the most common
place of modern travellers

Salt Lake Tribune: Dave Smith,
sheepherder, died on Wednesday at
sheep camp about thirty miles south
west of Tooele. A week ago he was
kicked by buck which he was tying
down. The sheep kicked him in the
groin. No attention was paid to it,
except that he felt bad for day or
two and vomited frequently. It was
thought that he was getting better,
but on Tuesday sheepherder came
into Tooele bringing the news that
Dave was very sick and should be
brought to town. A party was sent
out to bring him on Wednesday, but
when they got to the camp he was
dead. 1t is not known just how the
injury caused his death, but such was
evidently the case. The boys mother
is a widow, dependent on him for sup
port. She has but one other son, who
is in the Penitentiary and has been
there for two years as the result of q
row. He has something over q year
to serve.

San Juan Exploded.

An expert sent from Durango, Col,
by the Board of Trade of that city
has returned from the San Juan
placer gold mines and reports that
there is absolutely nothing to warrant
the excitement in that section. He
says that no gold has been taken out
and that 5000 men and women are
headed back for civilization. There
has been no trouble of any kind he
say, bond of sympthy existing
among all the duped gold-seekers.
1t would not be fair for the Chron-
icle to say, awe told you So" for
we didn't, but our readers will bear
witness that on the very first rumor
of marvellous placer diggings having
been discovered on the San Juan
river this paper warned people against
leaving certainty for an uncertainty
and employed the numerous rushes
that have occurred to alleged gold
fields on this coast to point the moral.
A month ago the Chronicle said:
" Most of the reports of the wonder
full success which has attended the
wielders of the pick and pan thus far
may be set down as exaggerations, if
not absolute fairy tales. 1t would not
be fair to say that the placers do not
exist, but we may be sure that for
every man who makes his pile in the
now diggings there will be hundred
who will fail"
Of course these words of warning
were of no avail Men rushed into
or toward the San Juan in the most
complete confidence that however
huch others might be disappointed
tliGR. would succeed in making for
tune in short time. It would seem
now, from the most recent accounts,
that there were no placer mines of
any value there in the first place, and
that the whole thing was delusion.
The truth probably is that there were
indications of gold there, as in hun
dreds of placers on the Pacific slope,
and that hope told such iattering
tale as to magnify molehills into
mountains, all of solid gold. There
is, though, no such teacher as expert
rience, no matter how cruel or severe
its lessons may be.

Perished on the Desert.

Word was brought from Pahranagat
valley by James Pierson Sunday even
ing that Matt Lyons, who accompa-
MED Bud Fillmore made his es-
cape from the officers about ten days
ago while under arrest on the charge
of attempted burglary-had persisted
by thirst while on his way to Pahran-
agat with Fillmore.
It seems Lyons and Fillmore were
not following the wagon road, the lat
ter fearing the officers were after him,
but were cutting across the country,
heading for a spring. A few miles
from the spring Lyons became ex-
hausted and Fillmore pushed on to the
spring. After quenching his own
thirst, he filled bottle and returned
to where he left his comrade. On ar
irving at the place he left him, Lyons
was nowhere to be seen. The near
ly exhauste man had got up and wan
dered aimlessly away. Fillmore track
ed him in the sand for several hun
dred feet, but the tracks becoming
mingled with those of cattle, he could
60 no further. Fillmore, when seeu
in that valley by Mr.. Pierson, was
quiet certain Lyons had Perished.

The Gazette has received special
from Boca announcing the total de-
struction by fire of the Boca brewery,
bottling and engine houses. The fire
was discovered by the hands on No.
8 at 1890 this morning, who gave the
alarm. It was first discovered in the
packing house. The loss is estimated
at $3.50, 900, which is partly covered
by insurance. The brewery was es-
tablished in 1874, and was one of the
oldest on the Coast. The cause of the

Thirty Years of High Taxes.

Ex-SpealIer Reed reminds the country
that high and still higher protection has
prevailed in this country for 80 years.
Yes, and during this time the United
States have experienced some of the
worst financial and commercial panics
ever known in the history of the bust
ness world.
They have known more and longer
periods of business depression than in
any other equal period in their history.
Wages have fiuctuated as much as in
any other nation in the world.
There have been more numerous, ex-
tensiYo and disastrous strikes and lock-
outs than in any other country.
During these 80 years the Republican
party has made 10 tariff revisions and
INDUCED q hundred times in separate
"tariff tinkering" bills-always, with
one exception, revising the schedules up
ward and in the interest of the monopo-
lies that paid its campaign expenses.
And yet, now that the revision down.
ward demanded by the people is soon to
be made. they set up the cry that
business demands certainties '-"tariff
changes are an evil"
The country has, on the whole, pros
pered wonderfully in spite of the taxes,
just as it has prospered in spite Of un-
timely frosts,; in spite Of droughts,
floods, cyclones and pestilence. But it
will prosper more abundantly with the
sbackles stricken from its commerce and
burdensome taxes removed from the
necessaries Of the people.-New York
