It bas been several months since the stage companies carrying United States mails on the star routes in this part ‘of the State have been paid off. Heretofore they -have received their drafts regularly each month. It is supposed that the rasb of business at the Postoffice Department incident upon the establishing new offices in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines and the extraordinary demands upon the government for money in prosecuting the war with Spain have caused the delay.'Thecontractors have no fear but they will get their money. The inconvenience from not getting it promptly is what worries them. LEARN TO say “No” when a dealer offers you something “just as good” in place of Hood’s Sarsaparilla.

The Nevada City Ice Company is now prepared to supply the public with first-class natural ice at onable rates. Office at residence of Thomas Corvoran,. first door above Theater Ice house, rear of [beater. Telephone No. 7912, : tf. \ Corcoran & ARBoaasrt. ment among owffeaders who will not be slow to see the purpose and inspiration of it: “It is reported that the Nevada county delegates to the Miners’ convention went home very much dissatisfied with the result of the election for Secretary of the State Miners Association. Nevada county asked that this office be given to one of her favorite sons, Mr. R. H. Turner, son of one of the pioneers who have made Nevada ‘county’s history while wresting riches from her hills, a worthy young man, who, had he been elected would have performed the duties of the office most creditably. There was another candidate for this honor, however, Mr. E. H. Benjamin of Alameda, and he was elected over Nevada’s candidate by a small majority, due no doubt, to the fact that he enjoyed a /wider personal acquaintance among the delegates than did his opponent. “Speaking for the dissatisfaction, the Nevada City Transcript says: ‘Within the last three years this county las contributed over $3,000 to the coffers of the association. This year we put up about $900, aud Placer county, which came next, contributed only $400. In other words, this county has done more than twice as much as any other county to keep up the expenses of the organization. A feeling has sprung up in numerous quarters here since the last session that we are too guileless. The little old office of secretary, which was the first thing we had asked for in return for the part we were playing in the association, was brusquely refused us, and we were laughed at for our pretensions Really, isn’t it time that the people of Nevada county awake to the fact that they have played second fiddle in this matter about long enough.’ . “The Transcript is in error in stating that the Nevada county delegation was Jaughed at forits pretensions. Among those who voted against her candidate were some, and probably many, who recognized the justice of Nevada’s claim but who favored the other mau because they considered he also bad some'claims and because of personal friendships for him. These delegates did not believe that the 147 delegates from Nevada couuty would refuse to bow gracefully to the wil! of the majority in the matter, and the Mercury does not believe it yét, notwithstanding the fact that the TRANscRIPT seews to voice a defiant spirit. ; “We do not believe that Nevada couny, which has been the main pillar of ‘he organization since its inception, without asking for a single honor, is going torisk the effectiveness of the organization which has done and can do so much for the principal industry of that county, through any feelitig of elections. “We would rather believe that Nevada county will carry out the threat made by Judge Walling upon the floor of the convention when he said that Nevada would come into the convention with delegates enough to tuke all ‘the offices; and for our part, the Mercury is willing she should, for she has plenty of good men, “Nevada county has contributed lished the story of the fight over the; discontent with the results of the. late . handsomely to the organization. Within the past year she paid into the treasury of the State organization the sum of $900, more than double the; amount paid in by any other county. She has paid this money to assist in accomplishing the work for which the organization was formed, not to secure association honors for Nevada county, and the results already achieved should show her that the money has been well expended. Nevada county knows that it has, and, while her people cannot be expected to feel otherwise than disappointed over the secretaryship, it is safe to assume that they will not permit their allegiance to waver, whatever the TRANSCRIPT may say.” IN THE SUPERIOR COURT, Hooper Given Until Saturday to Plead— Oiher Busiaess, In the Superior Court today consid erable business was transacted. The objection to the final. discharge of 8S. T. and Wm. H. Murchie, insolvents, wa3 overruled. In the case,of the Spence Mining Company against Albert R: Herman .ar.d others the demurrer to the complaint was over-ruled and the defendants were given thirty days to answer. The demurrer of Wm. Bell, the archi‘ect and builder,:o the complaint ‘of Wm. Bourne, the mining man, was sustained. Mr. Bell’s motion to dissolve the injunction was granted. The hearing of further argument in the suit brought by Mary A. Bennallack against W.G. Richards, executor of theestate of Philip Richards; deceased, was postponed till Wednesday. Robert Hooper, charged with the murder of Mark Oasey, was arraigned and given till next Saturday to plead. The will of Mary McCarthy was admitted to probate. George F. Murphy was appointed executor without bonds. Peter Purcell, George F. Murphy and Jacob Weissbein were appointed appraisers. The case of Freeman vs. Getchell was continued till next/ Monday when it will be set for trial. 7or United States Bond Interest. Nevada City holders of the three per cent. United States bonds dated August first will be glad to learn that instructions have been received from Washington to pay all interest checks upou them, regardless of the clause on the back of the checks to the etfect that if they are not presented for payment within four months after date they will not be accepted. “On account of the pressure of business arising from the subscriptions to the loan, many have not received their ‘interest checks at . this date, and, to avoid unfair discriminations, the four months clause has Ween waived. 4 increasing Homann’s business is daily. d5-tf Cl CJ SD, SS, CLHX KX KID Wines x 3 HMolidays.

In the case-of Charles Klein against the city of Grass Valley, te collect $298 damages, Justice Hlolbroo’s this morning gave defencaut judgment for its costs. : In May }: trustees of Grass Valley took av. Aieii’s license on the ground that he kept a disorderly house. This was done without giving him any trial or notice. He took the matter to the Superior Court where it was held that such action was illegal, the trustees having no jurisdiction in the premises. Inthe meantime the saloon remained closed for fifteen daysAfter they had restored the license Klein brought suit in a justicécourt to recover $298 damages. A change to Justice Holbrook’s court was’ obtained and last week the case was argued. The City Attorney took the ground that Grass Valley was a part of the State government and was .not responsible for damages ‘caused by the illegal acts of its trustees.
