If seems to be generally expected by all con-
cerned that the incipent controversy between
the Metropolitan Street Railway Company ana
its employees will be amicably adjusted. Ofncers
of the company assert positively that they nave
no apprehension of strike, though that may
not be indicative Of concatory temper. On
the other hand. the representatives OF the men
say that after further consultation with one
another and with higher officials of their order,
a proposal to arbitrate will be submitted to the
company Meantime the community, while re-
fusing to be seriously disturbed until it has to
be. will watch with considerable interest for
indications Of n rupture or settlement IL ~
gratifying to hear the employees talking or an
arbitration as the first proceeding on their pro-
gramme. In case an informal discussion OF the
points at issue does not bring about IN agree
ment In many similar instances the rational
and decent order Of events has been foolishly
and wlckcdly reversed Fight first and arbi-
tratc aftcrward has too often been the rule OF
action. and a great amount Of misery has been
the consequence.
Both parties 10 a labor controversy arc TOO

neither can afford TO ignore. that the pressure

upon those who wfully cause IN interruption

1t is never good thing to increase an officials
salary during his term of office. If an Increase
IS desirable it should he arranged to take effect
when new incumbent is elected This prin-
ciple has not been followed in the bill doubling
the salary Of the President Of the Board Of AL
dermen In Brooklyn, which was passed by a
large majority in the Assembly last evening.
The salary is now $1,000; the official performing
the same duties in this city gets $1,000. The
nroposed increase across the river Is out of pro-
norton to the responsibility attaching to the
Office. even IL this has been increased by the
absorption of the county by the city. If this
measure reaches Mayor Wurster 1t will be a
good one for him to veto.

Another proof Of the strong anti-consolldation
feeling in Brooklyn was given yesterday by the
action Of the Board Of Aldermen, which unani-
mOusly adopted resolution urging Mayor Wurs-
ter to return the Consolidation bill to Albany
without his approval. The Aldermen come from
all parts of the city and have good opportunities
for knowing how the people stand on this ques-
ton and all others Undoubtedly they reflect the
feeling of the great majority Of the population,
and 1t is impossible to believe that the Mayor
will act in opposition to this feeling. as we'll as
to his own clear expressions on the subject.

they will prevent the running OF the elevated

NOT lose sight Of is that some things can BE- done
and others can't. The elevated trains can run
on the present railroad tracks. The burden OF
showing where the trolley-cars can be accommo-
do,ed on the Bridge rests on the men whose
names are attached to the application sent in
Yesterday.

drawn from the Governor because Of his n,cn-
ton to veto it unless its worst features were

District Court.

The regular July term of the
district court for Lincoln county
convened promptly at O'Clock
last Monday morning. The grand
jury was drawn, and was composed
OF the following jurors: ]. H
Maine, M. J. Allphin, A. J. Miller,
". H. Harrison, ]. M. Start, A.
H. Hampton and A. E. Altree.
Mr.. ]. H. Maine was appointed

being instructed by the court re-
tired to the deliberations under the
charge OF the veteran bailiff, J. H.
Bevins. The grand jury after be-
ing in session until Wednesday
noon, made its final report, which
is given below. During its session
1t was called on to investigate two
cases that had been bound over,
and in each case returned a not
true bill. 1t also investigated a
few other cases laid before it, but
found no charge worthy to base an
Indictment upon.
There was but one jury trial had
during The term. This was the
case of John McCullum VS.. Mary
Fitzpatrick, and was suit brought
for wages for labor claimed to have
been performed for the defendant
in and around the Monterey hotel.
This case was tried on Monday,
and the selection of the jury was a
little out of the or ordinary, as not a
single member was challenged or
excused. The case was hotly con-
tested, and was submitted to the
jury about q o'clock. After deliber-
ating until about ten O'Clock that
night the jury returned a verdict
for S273.62, being the full amount
sued for with interest.
The other cases were disposed of
as follows:

QUEER PEOPLE IN CARSON.

A perusal of the following items
from Fridays Appeal shows Il queer
state Of affairs in Carson. A people
that will persccute man for refus-
ing to lie on the witness stand, and
covers up crime as detailed below,
are certainly in need OF a religious re
vival or should be brought to sense
of their moral turpitude by a strict
enforcement of the law. However,
we leave our readers to form their
own conclusions:
STILL Prosecuted.
"On Wednesday evening ut 10 min
utes of 10 some cowardly miscreants
threw two rocks into Joseph Lange
wins house. One came through the
window, SCATTERING the glass and
frame, and the other was hurled
through the glass door.
"His youngest child was saying its
prayers at the time the rocks came
smashing through the window and
naturally the family were very much
startled. Mr.. Langevin ran to the
door and saw two men hurrying away
in the night, and he feels certain that
he identified one of them. He will
bring the matter before the Grand
Jury.
"Since his testifying in the Heney
trial he has been subjected to all
sorts of persecution to compel HIM to
leave town, but he proposes to stay
here i'll Carson and fight his perse-
cutors To 1, finish"
GREEN ROBBED BEFORE"
"The robbery of the tin box from
the paymaster of the V. & II. was by
no Means the first time the road was
done up. 1t had to settle with u San
Francisco house for shortage of one
of its favorites to the tune of Sl5,C00
inside Of five years.
"rrior to that time two of it's en-
ployccs were caught out very badly,
but they had good pulls and were
not moiestad. One of them retired
with good Endorsement from the com
pany and sought other fields. He got
into the other firm for $4,000.
"Ihe man implicated in the tin box
robbery had very close shave, but
the pull worked and he was not ar
rested. All the others squirmed
through the scrape in the same way.
People seemed to think that as long
as they robbed road like the V. & r.
it was all right. This idea is falla-
cious. The road is entitled to the
same protection against thieves as
anybody else"
Covering up the Mint steal, perse-
cutting Langevin and shielding train
robbers from punishment are pecu-
liar phases OF Carson character, as de.
velopod by the events of the last year.
Not successful in preventing an iu-
vestigation of the Mint robbery the
@pull" wreaks its vengeance on the
head of an inoffensive man whose evil
dence put one Of the thieves behind
the penitentiary bars and placed a
tool of the ring in the Storey county
all for contempt Of court. Stealing
from the Mint is nothing, bribing
witnesses is nothing, and stealing
from the V. & r.. railroad is less than
nothing when member of the gang
is i'll jeopardy. Their consciences re-
volt, though, at a man who tells the
truth on the witness stand, and no il
made to feel their displeasure by 6
system of petty prosecutions that
brings the blush of shame to ever,
law-abiding citizen of the State.
The INDEpEND emit does not believe
that the majority Of tho people o.
Carson uphold the tactics of the gane
whose actions the Appeal has de
