We gavean account yesterday of thé murder of two men and one_woman, at Rocklin, on Saturday last. The murcers were committed by Chinamen. On Monday a dispatch was sent from Rocklin to the Chief of Police at Sacramento which states that two more dead bodies were found near that place tlrat morning ; >} one that of ayoung man about. 20 years of age, and the other that of a boy, about 8 years old. They were shot full of holes, and the parties: were evidently murdered by Chinese. On Sdnday inorning a meeting of citizens was held ia Rocklin, and in furtherance of the proceedthe town were notified tbat they had . until 6 P. M. to leave, as at that time those who remained would bo drivenont. They evidently saw that it was folly to baa and immediately made preparations to depart. At 4p. M. the last’squad, burdened with their baggage, tiled out of the town, and not one remiained, including those who had been working inthe railroad employ, except the prisoner.. In. their preparation for departure they were in no manner molested. men marehed to the Chinese quarabout twenty-five, was demolished In one of them—a boarding house— kindled, and in afew minutes the er were in flaines. put on. streains ramento, >? _ Dace Friday Night. anteed toullwho attend. © ang22-3 at the funeral of Rapbarl Semmes. bile, Alwbuma, all thisugh the day. bis: bast quies. en good eae to avoid accidents of any . . ings taken, the Chinese residents of “At 6 o'clock a body of ter, and every’ liouse, to a total of there was a stove in which some fire remained, and in conarquence of. this when the roof*fell’ the “ribbish” was material of thie atructure and anothAs it was close to the railroad water tank and round . house; the railroad employes quickly pane tene men and -woveded ‘wight, from their force pump, and protected the company’s property.

This muy be done by the Rezislature, ax we are ‘assured by eminent lawyers. Others say it requires a Coostitationsl amendment. A cotemporal¥ says, Articles IV and V ofthe Constitation provides for the gevernl State elections ‘to be held on the first Wedoesday in Septearbder uiless otherwise provided by the Legislatare.”’ Is not this placing the wnole power of regulating elections in the bands ef the Legislatare? Article VI provides the judicial . offi7 gers shall be elected **at special elec: tions “fo be provided by law.” Would it be unconstitutional for the Legislature to provide that the gen-. efal aud judicial elections shouid be held on the same day and at the sume place? It y:ould be far less expensive and equally hs satisfactory as itis now. Judicial nomiuations are.made by each party, an.] it is idle to tulk about ignoring in the selection ef judicial candidates,Oo this agubject the Sacramento Bee pertinently remarks: ‘There is nothing except the law, which the .Lagislaturé may ot any time alter, fixing the time of either of these electious. ln otber words, there is no Cousti-: tional] proviso thattneLegi+lature sbali not orderthem both to be beld atthe same time and place. The only thing necessury is to have two bullot boxes apd two sets of bullots— jadicial and general. The voter would hand in both ballots at the sawe time, and they would be deposired.in their respective boxes, and the Constitution would be complied with--the two. elections would be held. ‘Lo prevent the tickets getting into the wrong boxes, the word ‘general’ might be printed. on, the back of oue ballot, aud judicial on the cther.’’ This is a matter worthy the . cuusideration of the members-elect. Any Legisl iture that will reduce the . expenses of the Government and dimivieh the taxes of the people will be a blessing, and appreciated by the public, Latest News Items, The story recently published that Sitting Bult is a ecvullege graduate bamed Jacobs is contradisted.
