In Re Henry Davis.

Editor County Record
was glad to see your editorial
article in issue of 4th inst in refer
ence to action of our delegation re-
garding the parole of one Henry
Davis. Had seen your article OF
28th ult and intended writing you
stating my position in the matter.
Upon receipt of Mr. Simpkins' letter
and petition, wrote several of the
prominent citizens of Salters asking
for information as to the sentiment
of the community in regard to the
pardon or parole of Davis. They
one and all were bitterly opposed to
it, declaring that it would be an
outrage on any community to re-
lease such dangerous criminal
among them. After receiving this
information also from my own
knowledge of the killing-I wrote
Mr. Simpkins that the granting of
this pardon or parole would be a
great injustice and also enclosed him
answers to my inquiry.
Your inquiry is very much to the
point-we, too, would like to know
what makes an EdgefeId lawyer
take such an active interest in a
Williamsburg murderer who, if he
had gotten his deserts, would have
been hung?
Yours truly,
&c GRAHAM.

There are five Judges to be
elected at the next session OF
Legislature, two circuit and three
supreme court Judges. Up to
this time there have been men
toned, so far as we have seen,
only about a score of candidates
for the five positions, and a
remarkable feature Of it is that
out of the multitude of aspirants
for these high and honorable
places, you could count on your
fingers all the candidates who
are known to fame outside their
own little bailiwicks.

Fighting Bob" Evans is dead. .
His pseudonym, like that Of
Fighting Joe" Hooker, seems to
have been rather ironic, as we have
never heard of any great feats OF
valor he performed, save such as ne
himself set forth in his magazine
articles, where he glorifed himself
into a veritable Hercules, Hector,
Achilles and some others combined
into one puissant parsonage.

.STAMPEDlNG NOW
 FROM ATLIN

A real old.iashioned stampede is on, according to James A. Hildebrand, who is located on the headwaters of the stilsine river, from Southern Yu- kon and Northern British Columbia points to q new discovery on Silver creek.
 Mir. Hudebrand arrived in Juneau on the Georgia yesterday enrOute from the stikine country, via Atlin, to the Outside.
 To The Empire Mir Hildebrand stated that the new discovery was on Silver creek, which is a stream flow ing into the south end of Teslin lake and distant from Atlin about 100 miles in southeasterly direction. The dis covery was made by an Indian, Jud- son Ward, who has put in several years at placer mining. This Indian says he is not sure if the gold is plentiful enough to pay for the work ing of the ground or not, but he thinks 1t is. He brought out about $40 in coarse gold, some of the pieces weigh ing 25 cents.
 The first stampeders having re- turned to Atiin and recorded their claims have gone back to the dis covery. There have been eight stam- peders out of Atlin for the new strike some of whom have gone prepared to stay the winter through and give the ground a thorough prospecting. All told, perhaps 50 men have visited the country since the reported discovery last September.
 There would have been many others now on the way there, if dogs were to be had. It is absolutely necessary to have a dog team in order to reach the new diggings which are said to be the most inaccessible in British Go. umbia. The stream on which the dis. covery is made flows into the south end of Teslin lake, as before men, toned, and heads up near Lake Tew- ey. This would place the discovery on the edge of the district made fam ous by old Cassair placer miners.
 Mir. Hildebrand says that he has been within 40 miles of the reported discovery while on a surveying trip and that the place can be reached by three routes leading out of Atlin. snowshoes and dogs cannot be bought in Atlin.
 It is thought that this creek as well as many others close by form the great placer field that was de. serted by the old Cassair miners 40 years ago on account of the excessive cost of getting supplies into the coun- try. Hildebrand is an old timer in the country and believes that the dis covery is of real importance.
