March 14. The llth of July robbery
of lust year has made Ilivorton
familiar nnmo with THE BKE family.
But now that Wells , the Missouri
outlaw , languishes in the jail of Fremont
mont county , and Jjis punishment for
said robbery of the Fremont bank it amore
moro maUer of time , wo may well
turn to things of n moro novel nature ,
remarking en passant that Norris , the
associate of Wells , having demanded
an examination , has boon discharged
from custody in default of sufficient
proof to detain him longer.
THK TIUOIC SUICIDE AT RIDNKY ,
of Joseph McNatt , a notorious Balnou
keeper of tins place , occurro < in his
other "hall" on Monday last. Ho hnd
tjradually grown dissipated , nnd only
recently was implicated in n tirutikon
row at midnight in' his place The
folo do BO wns accomplished by Bund
ing a bullet through his brain with a
revolver , the ball finding ogress
near the lofttemple. . Death rnpidly
iollowed the shot. His remains were
interred in Riverton cemetery on the
9th inst. McNatt'a family consisted
of his wife and ttfo amall children.
The unfortunata man was 30 years of
age.
THK ANNUAL ELECTION
of city officers occurred hero last
wouk. A lively interest was taken
therein , the business men of tha
town being unusually active in their '
support of the successful ticket.
Heretofore the opposition had been
regarded as invincible. The saloon
question wns the thorn in the flesh. A
mayor , throe councilman , otib record
er and ono assessor were elected , The
town officers nro now as follows :
Mayor W. S. Palmer ; Trustees ,
Isaac Smith , J. 0. Roberts , I. R.
Kidd , Roland Hey , J. H. Hough , J.
H. Hough , \V. T. Yeardy ; Recorder ,
W. M. Williams ; Assessor , Thdmas
Thomson.
On the 7th inst. , the eflicera elect ,
duly qualified and entered upon their
respective duties. The now council
will probably raise the saloon license
from § 300 to $2jOOO. The same be
ing surrounded with rigid conditions ,
a breacli whereof involving a forfeit
ure of the privilege and the amount
paid therefor.
ATTEMPTED OUTIiAOE.
On Saturday evening last between
eight and nine o'clock , as two modest
and highly accomplished young misses ,
between 14 and 10 years of ape ,
daughters of ono of our best famil
ies , were returning to their father's
house , near ono of the principal
streets , they were accosted by n burly
and lecherous ruffian who seized the
elder of the two girls and placed his
right hand over her mouth , whereup
on the younger sister made such excel
lent use of 'her ' vocal organs as to sum
mon and receive immediate assistance. ,
and forthwith the infamous wretch
releasing his innocent prospective prey
quickly vanished into the unknown
darkness whence he camo. A vigor
ous but vain search was instituted ,
and had the fiend boon found Judge
Lynch would have disposed of hia
do in a summary manner.

Many of the merchants arc already

The Liquor Question In Congress
New YorkPost. .
Congress baa probably never done
anything mcro ambitious in the way
of buncombe than the passage of n
bill by the Soitnto creating a commis
sion to examine the connection of the
liquor traffic with revenue , taxation ,
crime , pauperism , social vice , the pub
lic health , and general welfare. Thcro
ia probably no social question which
bus been so thoroughly examined na
the liquor question. I'hurois iionoon
which such n maw , of statistics'hnvo
been colloe'ed It ia well eaUbliahod
that drink is Uio CIIIIBH of a very Jarco
part of all the crime and pauperism
there is in the Western world. It is
well known that n largo very
largo revenue an bq , and ia
riismil from it by civilized' ' nations ,
In England nearly ono-qiJutcr
of the national income coinaa
from it. That excessive drinking is
injurious to the individual health and
morals is also _ so well so'ttled ' that no
rational person ( ventures to deny it.
Whether raodorato drinking is injuri
ous to the health or not is n point on
which doctors and physiogolists nro
greatly nnd apparently hopelessly di
vided , and no re-examination of them
by a congressional commission would
do anything but make confusion worse
confounded. Opinions on- " this sub
ject , as on all questions of health , are
and must bo greatly affected by in
dividual experience , and individual
experience about alcohol , ns about to
bacco , will alwoya vary greatly , just
as it varies greatly about cucumbers.
All the doctors in the world cannot
persuade a man vho likes cucumbers ,
and knowB , they ag roe with him , that
they nro bad for him.
Thp only question connected with
the liquor traffic that a legislature can
hope to throw lighten by inquiry , ia
the question whether moderate drink
ing promotes excessive drinking , and
whether , if so , all drinking can or
ought t < bo suppressed , or nearly
suppressed , by logHation. The only
country in which any experiment , hns
been made in this direction is the
United States , andit , would bo inter
esting to know for certain what the
result has been a subject whichjs al
present onvolopea in fog. In facr'wo
doubt much whether this last point is
not the only ono on which official in
quiry can do us any good , because ,
touching the consequences of moderate
drinking , wo should have toroly much
on the experience of foreign countries ,
iri"which moderate drinking prevails
extensively ; and this an American
commission is not likely to bo able to
investigate with any profit.

Silver and Gold.
Hclerm Herald.
If it is true that our silver dollars
of 412i grains is worth moro proportionally
tionally with gold than thosilvercoins
of any other nation , why is not this
an argument for reducing the quantity
of gold in our coins ? If silver is the
worthier standard let gold conform to
it. Our country produces both metals
in about equal prpportious , and why
should wo discriminate in favor of the
ono and against the other in our mar
kola ? Wo do not cheat anybody out
side of the United States. Our silver
dollars are only bullion when nnnt
abroad , just an the silver coins of Eu
rope are with us. If wo wore con
vinced that the present relative value
of gold and silver were to continue ,
wo tihould certainly urge that our
coinage should represent this relative
value and that the coisa o of both
should ho unrestricted.
Tliero ia talk of convening another
monetary congress , but until England
and Uornmny will unite in the call , it
would bo fplly. Just in proportion no
wp manifest loaxanxiety in the matter ,
i H i. . ? . ; " * . T i r
little doubt now that u largo majority
of business men in both England and
Germany favor the romonotization of
silver. The United Statea by the
rapid increase of its wealth , the swell
ing volume of its commerce , and the
fact that it produces so largo n pro
portion of the precious metals , will
soon have the power to dictate on this
subject to all the rest of the world. '
It can iiuvor bo of any advantage to
us to try to bull the world's market
of either gold or silver ; what wo
ahquld add to ono would bo taken
from the other , and wo would not boone
ono penny richer for the change ,
