ROBERT rORSTER, PENDLETON, ORE 4 ihat jbiuning A as "married for they pronounce You never can :SE ALARM IN NEVADA. hou Gov. Sparks of Nevada tele- tbe President that that state nrless to resist certain lawless en combining to precipitate tbe Uoldfleld region, noth Lt tbe federal executive but United States troops at fjeno, to prepare for any 'iat might arise. Had the aited to investigate and trouble arisen before action liken, the responsibility for "quent destruction of property floss of life would have rested upon his shoulders. He believed tbo Nevada chief of state and acted with com mendable promptness, on the assump tion that tbe troops were actually needed. The troops were sent and at tbe at! time, as a measure of assurance, tbe President dispatched to Nevada a speoial commission of iuvestigators to ascertain tbe exact state of affairs. Between tbem and the commander of the foroos at Goldfleld the President has booome convinced that there is no danger, and that, in foot, there never was danger of a disturbance of snob extent that tbo state itself could not oopn with it. Consequently orders have been issued for tbe withdrawal of tbe troops at tbe end of tbe month. The President has, at tbe same time, telegraphed tbe governor that be will uot permit the United States forces to perform tbe ordinary police duties that belong to the state of Nevada, but stands ready to act in uny actual emer gency. This episode has its lessou to be learued, if they will, by all the state executives. They are charged with a certain responsibility, and in discharge ing it tboy must exhaust their own re sources bofore tboy summon those of the United States. Tbo action of Gov. Sparks iu calling for help bofore bo bad evon trio' to cope with the situa tion must ueooHgarily affect, unfor tunately, any future oaso of tbe same oharaotor 'bat may ariso. The cry of "wolf, wolf," when there is no wolf dulls tbe disposition of tbe resouer to respond. Any criticism that may be evoked by this Nevada affair should be directed at tbe governor of tbe state, and not at tbe President Tbe latter merely did bis full duty iu the iurerest of peaoe nnd order. Washington Star. IH OTHER TOWNS EBENEZER GRAY. (Anonymous.) He thought bo was a Christian Did old Ebeuozer Gray, Ho never missod church meetings And was olways glad to pray, He did not let religion Hurt his business through tbo week, But on a Sunday morning He was righteous-liko and meek.
