that the joint-senatorial and joint

jeopardy in a Republican county is
also very unaccountable.
Perhaps it will never be known who
were guilty of this defection; but we
are fearful it will work disastrously to
the party in the future. In elections
hereafter there will be "old scores" to
be paid, and no doubt they will be
liquidated. This is to be regretted
very much, as it will perpetuate fac
tional fights in Republican ranks. The
Times-Mountaineer expected tl.e full
ticket to be elected, and to this end
used every possible effort. J uis was

The resignation of Hod. James G.
' Blaine as secretary of state, which was
handed to the ' president Saturday
. morning and accepted, was a surprise
to the country, and demonstrates the
' fact beyond question, that Mr. Blaine
: is a candidate before the Minneapolis
convention which convenes to-morrow
for president. If this had been
done at & previous date, while it would
have caused regret that any feeling
except that of harmony should have
" prevailed between the head of the
state department and the administra
tion, it would have received no severe
criticism. As it is, after Mr. Blaine

he should be : excused. - Mr. Blaine
will make a strong candidate, and is

northwest, will render its verdict upon

THE ELECTION. .
From Tuesday 8 Duly.
The result of the -tli-ciion in this
county yesterday is a matter of great
surprise to Democrats and Republi
cans, as those who were considered
popular candidates did not poll the
vote that was expected. Returns
from several precints have not been
received; but enough is known to war
rant the belief that the Republican
legislative ticket is safe; but on the
countv ticket honors are even between
the ; Democrats and Republicans.
Thete is no change in the political
complexion of the couut); but un
known quantities entered into the
contest which it were impossible to
eliminate; and, furthermore, there was
the vote expected in June, in Novem
ber we will give the usual majority
for the Republican candidate.
The Vancouver Register undoubt
edly voices the best sentiment of the
people of that state in the following,
and his ideas will be endorsed by all
fair-mindi:d men in the northwest:
"One of the verj first duties of the
legislative assembly of this state
should be the passage of An act provid
ing for the private execution of crimi
nals sentenced to death. The public
execution of Robert T. Day at Kalarua
last Friday in the presence of about
five hundred people, including women
and children, stands as a sad coalmen
tarv on our boasted civilization. Like
the hanging of Gallagher in this city
two years ago, it was a disgrace to ibe
state. Unlike the law of other states.
our state law does not require the ex
undoubtedly particularly hard work ecution 0f criaHnal8 in private. A
-
public execution is a relic of barbar
ism, and the idle curiosity of the

done for favorite candidates.
In the state but few figures can be
procured, and the result can only be
conjectured. That the congressmen
and state .officials on the Republican
ticket are elected is generally con-
lower grade of humanity has no right
to be gratified in such a manner.
Executions ought to be conducted in
private, only the officers of the law
and such necessary attendants as may

figures are received. It is very evi
dent that there has been a lack of
harmony in the party, and this is very
deplorable in a presidential year.
HARRISON AND PROTECTION. '
The state of Washington cannot afford
to have her fair name linked with the
record of public executions, and the
legislature should remedy the evil at
the very earliest possible moment."

MlninK Camps on Fire.
South Cbeede, Colo., June 9. For
several days a small fire In some logs that
has been smoldering just east of the
Amethyst mine, was fanned into a flame
by the high winds of this morning. It
spread rapidly and soon tbe whole bill-
side was on fire. The wind was blowing
furiously and carried the flames rapidly
toward the northwest. To-night all the
valuable timber from Amethyst to the
Park Regent, a distance of a mile and a
half, has - been wiped off tbe earth.
Huodreds of ' miners' cabins and tents
bave been destroyed, with much valuable
macbiuery. It is feared that there has
been some loss of life in tbe Cleopatra
tunnel, but it was impossible to reach
tbe spot, owing to tbe intense heat. The
wind has changed, and at this writing
tbe flames are on the other side of tbe
gulch, around tbe Holy Moses mine, and
are rapidly eating their way up tbe
mountain. Should the wind continue in
its present course, the town of Upper
Creede is in great danger of destruction,
and should it change tbe city of Bachelor
may sutler a like fate. The destruction
already wrought is terrible. Miners are
left homeless, and tbe very valuable tim
bers used for mining work' are rendered
useless. The greatest sufferers among
toe mining companies are on tbe prop
erties of the' Amethyst and Louisa.

A XKW FABLE FOB CRITICS.
A cockroach sat on an editor's desk,
With a cynical smile on his face,
And watched the editor make grotesque.
Black marks on a clean, white place.
"Dear me!" said the cockroack, "I can't see
Why he should labor so constantly,
For he doesn't accomplish a single thing
With all his writing and scissoring.
Paste and scissors,
Scissors and paste
Think of the energy going to waste!"
The editor listened, but didn't reply,
For he bad too much to do; ,
But he said to himself: "One can't deny
There's much in the point of view,
One cannot measure his neighbor's worth
By the gash he makes in the face of the earth,
And I strongly suspect that he may be .
Perfectly right in his judgment of me. ,
Paste and scissors, ,
Scissors and paste '
Think of the energy going to waste!"
Then the editor smashed the cockroach flat,
' With his scissors, and buried him deep
Ia the pot of paste; and remarked: "Now that
1 consider is getting off cheap.
The critical faculty, as we know,
Is a dangerous thing to have, and so
I've forwarded you to a better land,
For the sake of society, understand."
Then the editor took up his pen and said,
As he looked at the cockroach lying dead:
"Paste and scissors
Scissors and paste ' . ,
Think of the energy going to waste!"
