Hazleton, Pa, Sept. 1S.-Nineteen dead
and forty-one wounded is the record of
the Winchesters welded by the deputy
sheriffs at Lattimer Friday afternoon.
Eleven of the unfortunate miners
dropped dead in their tracks under the
terrible battery, four more died during
the night, and four were added TO the
record Saturday morning. The work of
Identifying the dead was actively going
on all night and is still so far from COM

will not be obtainable for some time to
come. The Ninth regiment of the Third
brigade, state militia, under Colonel
Dougherty of Wilkesbarre, was the first
detachment of the state militia to ar
rive. They came in after o'clock FRI
day morning and camped on the COM

The Commissioners

The following letter which
through the courtesy of W. D. Jones
we are enabled to publish, speaks
for itself:
Dear Sir. Again replying to your
favor of July goth. and referring to
my answer OF the 24th, at the time
OF answering your Inquiry I wa )
under the impression that Tetou
county was an old county, aud that
regarding it the same principles
would have application as were
applicable to other, old counties.
This is made apparent by the ex-
planatory portion of my letter ia
which it was stated that the term
of the commissioners was four
years term made SO by The consti>
tuition and, OF course, any legisla-
tion abridglng that term would be
invalid. Teton county being Great
ed in 1893, the commissioners
named by the legislature were
commissioned to hold office until
after the next general election.
The next general election was held
10 1894. at which time, 90 doubt
three commissioners w,.re elected
and by the terms of the constitu-
tion their tenure of office would be
four years. Ii they entered upon
the performance of their duties on
the 1st of January, 1898, their four
years would elapse on the 1st ol
January, 1899. 1t is ouly the
commissioners OF those counties in
exis :ence at the time of the adop
,ion of the cons titution that 20 oul
Of office on the 9Th of next Novem,
Der, as you will see by referring te
my former letter, aud the com
missioners of hose counties created
in 1893, with the law providing
for The commissioners named t
hold office until after the mex
general election, the county com
missinners so elected at the mex
general election, whish would he i,
the fall of 1894, would have th,
right to retain the office for Sfou
years from the 1st of January
1895. 1t is ny judgement thel
the commissioners elected last faI
should NOT, in yaurs county, ente'
upon the performance of thea
duiies upon the 9th of next Nov
EN- Der, but that the commissioner
indicted into office on the 1st O
January, 1895, hold for their full
term.
/ Incidently I might remark in m
judgment the election of commits
sioners last fall was Invalid, a.
another, gent raj election come
round before the term expires O
the present incumbents, and at thi
coming election commissioner
should be elected.
l write this lest that you ma,
misunderstood my Latter of tn 2ltt
of July, as laborlng under the i'm
preston that Teton county was al
old county, the statement wa.
inadvertently made. although il
conflict with the legal proposition
that the commissioners elected las
fall should enter upon ths per
formance Of their duJities on the
9th of Lext November.

In the senate this morning a protest
from the ladies Of the G.. A. X. was
read against closing the soldiers home

On recommendation Of committees,

The public printer bill was consid-
cred for a third time In committee OF
the whole and was further amended to
provide tht all bills for public printing
be reserved for public inspection. and
the salary vas reduced to 81, 500. and
the ste%nographer to 5000. The com
mittee arose and reported progress.
After recess the senate took action
IN the governors special message.
Senator Howell of Douglas moved
that the message be referred to q COM
mittee of five to be appointed by the
chair, with instructions to report
within ten days.
Lieutenant-Governor Harris called
attention to the fact that ten days
would carry the matter beyond the
limit of time for the introduction OF
bills. Senator Ransom explained that
II 1t were necessary to introduce a bill
the committee could lay the matter
before the governor and secure the
legal permission to do SO.
Lieutenant-Governor Harris then
appointed the following committees
Senators Beal, bearing, Mutz, McGanu
and Talbot.
In committee of the whole the pub
lie printer bill again came up, was
amended so as to provide a penalty for
violation of provisions of the bill, and

The special committee appointed by
the house to consider the various the
cries for the encouragement of the
beet sugar industry met Tuesday night
aud we're addressed on the subject by
r. W. Furnas, |. A. Fort. and W. G.
Taylor and Johh UT Of Omaha. The
discussion was along the line of divid.
ing the state into districts which may
issue bonds to assist factories that may
be induced to locate IN their limits.
1t was thought advisable to draft q
bill embodying some such provision.
The opinion seemed to be that the
state should not be divided into more
than four districts and that . limit
should be set on the bonded indebted
ness of each district. The matter OF
dra fling the bill was left in the hands
of w. g. Taylor and John UT.
