Twting tha Law.
S.u.i:m, Or., Dec. 5. In the circuit
court this morning, Judge Burnett sus
tained the demurrer interposed by re
spondents in. the mandamus suit against
the secretary of state and the governor
by II, B. Miller, to prevent them Irom
counting the vote cast for Pierce in coun
ties where his name was placed twice on
the otlicial ballot, and to compel the
governor to issue a certificate of election
to Miller. The demurrer was that the
petition does not state the facts suffi
ciently. The petitioners immediately
gave notice of appeal to the supreme
court, alleging that the court erred in
sustaining the demurrer and rendering
judgment in favor of respondents. The
case will probably be heard in the
supreme court some lime next week.
Meanwhile, the secretary of state is do

Jay Oould Dead.
New Yokk, Dec. 2. Jay Gould died
at 9:15 this morning.
Theditect causo of Goulds death, as
stated at the house this morning, was
pulmonary consumption. The world's
most famous financier became uncon
scious, and the Btrong master uimd
ceased to battle for life, and it became
merely a question of a few hours before
the dissolution.

two of the senators quoted as populists are

United States senator, and no compro

two in the houe, can therefore dictate

Wyoming1! Two Governors.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Dec. 5. Wyoming
still has the remarkable ectacle of two
alleged governors. Governor-elect Os
borne and a party of friends called at
the capitol this morning and announced
that they wanted to c tnvass the votes.
Acting-governor Barker refused to have
the vote canvassed, or to let Osborne be
present when the canvass takes place.
It begins to look as though trouble

What is lacking is truth and confi
