Suicided While Insane.

Coroner Gritton held an inquest last
Saturday over the body OF Andrew
Dennis, resident of Willow Springs
district, below Drytown, who was
found dead in the cabin of C. H.
Henderson of Mount Echo the previ-
Gus evening, with the top of his head
blown off. 1t seems, from the testi-
mony adduced at the inquest. that Mr..
Henderson left his home about o'clock
on the afternoon of the Goth, and pro-
ceeded to a neighbours (Mr. TonzD
house. He stayed there until s O'Clock,
and then returned to his own place.
Hefound the door ajar; he had closed
it when he left. Striking match he
noticed the form of a man stretched on
the floor. Thinking it was probably
some one drunk, he lit the lamp, and
was then Mortified to discover that the
top of his head was gone, with a gun
between the victims legs, the muzzle
toward his head. He at once looked
NR oOAAO IiOA6 hCOAc Is oUuOlSOu, r.,
W. Walker, and others. The de-
ceased was recognized by Mr.. Bonham
as Andrew Dennis. He knew him by
the thumb of one hand being missing.
He had been mentally deranged for
about three months, and would wander
from home whenever he got chance,
although his daughter kept watch over
him as far as possible. He no doubt
wandered away on the occasion, and
entered the Henderson cabin, and
finding shotgun there, sat down in a
chair, placed the muzzle of the gun in
his mouth, and touched the trigger
with cane. The gun was single
barrel, and loaded with No. 6 shot.
The jury, consisting of the following
named persons, G. H. Bonham, G. W.
Walker, Giuseppe Toni, Joseph Pat
terson, Giovanni Motroni, and Angelo
Motroni, returned the following YER

property-holders in the support of
county roads, and that the rest of
the county will be compelled to
make good the shortage in revenue
In order that she can use the money
she is now paying for road purposes
for internal improvements. Sup
pose Jackson and lone follow suit,
prompted by the same spirit, to
throw the cost of roads outside city
limits off their shoulders, what
would become of the argument that
incorporation can be maintained
without any material addition to
taxation.
The same rule applies to the
license question. Although it is
true, that under the recent ruling
OF the supreme court incorporated
towns are cut off from contributing
money in the shape of license tax
toward the support of county gov
eminent, it is entirely erroneous
that this revenue will be available
for internal Improvement. The
principal source of this mouey comes
from liquor licenses, and the license
on this traffic is imposed mainly be-
cause the business is of nature
that it entails extra cost upon the
government. 1t is very doubtful
whether the sum derived from liquor
licenses reimburses the county for
the cost of the criminal business
growing out of the sale of intoxicat-
ing drinks. Incorporated towns,
while receiving the license, are also
saddled with the duty of maintain
ing law and order, and it is extreme
ly doubtful after striking balance,
whether the outcome would be in
favor of or against the city from a
monetary point of view.
The truth seems to be, disguise it
as we may, that incorporation must
necessarily entail upon a community
in extra taxation the sum necessari-
ly involved in defraying the running
expenses of the city. That is the
theory upon which the municipal
law is based, and if the laws relating
to the expenditure of county funds
were strictly observed, it would be
found to be practically correct.
Amador ledger., 1901-09-27

The Examiner is now reaping as
it has sown. 1t merits all the ad-
verse criticism that is being piled
upon it. In the presence of this
storm of censure it is dumb. That
is about the only wise course it has
pursued since it developed into a
rabid rule-or-ruin organ. Its only
defense is that it is the paper OF
the people" What people?- Its
columns show only too clearly the
kind of people it is the mouthpiece
for-the Most, Czolgoszes-and an
archists generally. It's villanous
system of cartooning and villifca-
ton has done more to weaken the
respect for law and good govern
ment than the rawlings of a score oil
out-and-out anarchist lecturers.
And its conduct in this crisis-when
the maledictions of the American peo-
pie against journals OF It's stripe,
are being heard on every hand-only
deepen the public contempt In
stead of admitting its error, in
pandering to the baser side of human
nature, and resolving to mend its
ways in the future, it vies with the
respectable class of journals in ex-
tolling the virtues and the wise
craftsmanship of our martyred
president, Mckinley, whom it has
Systematically abused from the
moment he occupied the presidential
chair. 1t is to be hoped that the
better class of citizens will contin ue
to realize that they have no use fol
papers of the Examiner class.

PACIFIC COAST MINER.

We are in receipt of the special
edition of the Pacific Coast Miner
for September. This magnificent
work consists of about 80 pages,
deliberately illustrated with scenes
connected with the mining industry
of California. The descriptive arti.
Giles of the various mining counties
are written principally by we'll
known writer's, residents of the re-
spective sections treated upon. The
edition is a very valuable work,
giving a clear-cut view of the mani
fold resources of the state from a
mineral standpoint, and cannot fail
to attract attention when distributed
among the visitors to the Buffalo
exposition, and be the means of Sc
curing the investment of more out
side capital in our mines. The
typographical appearance of the
edition is in the very best style of
the printers art.

fire was started in the Vicinf house in
Mount Echo district, beyond a doubt
by some miscreant. An aged Spaniard
was sleeping in the cellar, and he barely
escaped with his life. His efforts pre-
vented the fire spreading to the ad-
jacent dry feed, but the house was de-
strOyed. AT about the same time the
large Allen barn was set on fire and
burned, together with about 100 acres
of dry feed. The light from the fire
awoke the Toni family, who turned
out and fought the flames for several
hours, succeeding in preventing
further destruction.
