Mw M ' a , . gument. If the Commissioners have the power of laying only such bills as j suit them ln fore the auditors and of withholding other bills until next year, then the Auditors' work would le a farce that three nu n of common sense should le ashamed to idle their time at, let alone a-ccpt pay for. In other words if the County Comnissioners have the power of withholding a bill for one dollar, they can withhold a bill fur four thousand three hundred and fifty dollars, or for ten or twentv thousand dollars, and if they can withhold either and grant orders to pay the bills the follow ing year, the people could never tell how the county stood financially and there would le no possible use for County Auditors. The law intends and common horse sense without any law would teach any thinking man that the Auditors settle ment should contain everything settle everything for the year. If the Com missioners have contracted any debts that remain unpaid they must lay the indebtedness U fere the Auditors or pay the debts themselves. There is only one way of getting lx-hind the Auditors set tlement either fur a credit or indebted cduessand that is to appeal from it within the siKX'itied time provided by law ; af ter that time is past the settlement is final and conclusive and 6tands against the world. If a bill is presented to the Auditors for allowance for an indebtedness contracted for prior to the last Auditors' report, it is the duty of the Auditors to examiue the Auditors settlement for last year and if it appears that there was an indebted ness, they can then, if the bill is just and correct allow it. But if the hist Audi tors' report shows no such indebtedness, the Auditors can have nothing to do with it. It is not even discretionary with a tioard of Auditors whether they can allow an old bill or not, it is simply a question of whether they regard the obligations of an oath to perform their duty. Last year Joseph Hipps and George A. Kinkead were on the board as County Auditors, were re-elected in November, and are serving now. In their report last year they stated the outstanding in debtedness of the county at t23,SG9,C3 none of which was for building bridges. Cambria county, according to the Audi tors' report, made under the sanctity of their otticial oaths had paid every dollar she owed for building bridges. Yet on the very day that Joseph Hipps and George A. Kinkead as Auditors were sending out this report to the people of Cambria county an order was issued and rushed into the treasury for four thous and three hundred and fifty dollars in payment for building bridges contracted for long liefore the meeting of the Au ditors. Why the County Commission ers refused or declined to lay this bill le fore the Auditors and the people we will m t now discuss; the time and manner of issuing the order has already leen told to the readers of the Freeman. One of the first bills to come liefore the present Auditors will le the payment of this last year's bridge bill. The serenity expressed on the lenign counten ances of the Commissioners as they lay this bill before the Auditors will almost cast a hallo. Bridge building with them has liecome ft science, has been so care fullv done that although the bill 13 old it would be an outrage to doubt of its irtue. But there is no use arguing the ques tion of whether the county got value for the amount of this bill or not. The time for paying this bill by the county is past. Nothing but official perjury on the part f the Auditors can ever saddle it on the county now. It may seem hard, tan u is the result of the Commissioners own act in attempting to palm off on the people a rejiort that they knew was not true. If they were willing to risk four thousand three hundred and fifty dollars on the presumed gullibility of County Auditors, and lose, they have none but themselves to blame. Monkeying with a buzz saw is said to le dangerous but monkeying with the people's money should be classed as extra hazzardous. Ijist year's accounts, unless appealed from are according to every legal ruling closed forever. If the Auditors doubt the position of the Fkkkmax on this question if they doubt their own common sense they have the right and are expressly author ized by law to employ counsel of their own; not counsel selectc d by the Com missioners but counsel selected by themselves for their own guidance whose fees shall be paid out of the County Treasury, We leave the question with Joseph Hipps, George -A Kinkead and Wm. C. Berry the present Auditors; to square their consciences with their official oaths will lie a duty that they cannot shirk and should be performed without fear, favor or affection ; without re ward or gain or hope thereof. There is no complaint made by the Republican papers of Democratic niem liers Uing absent from the Senate when the vote was taken that shelved the Force bill, on Monday. Fight Sear Pine Ridge.

A dispatch ' . . i. iw loina. has just lieen received here from tl 1'me Ridge Agency announcing that a great battle is in progress there between the triKitis and the hostile Indians. The information Ls that General Mil' cav alry encountered the Indians at an early hour this morning a short distance from the agency. A desierate battle ensued, and hundreds of savages were killed, while the loss to the troops was also very heavy. General Miles himself is reported to have been killed early in the fight.

Anxapokis, Md., Jan. .), Comment Ls aroused among navy officers over the series of orders emanating from the Navy Department within the past few weeks directing the commissioning of war ships at San Francisco and the or dering of various other cruisers to Pacific waters. Under present orders no less then eleven war ships and five revenue cutters will soon be tne commlon in the Pacific and ready for duty. If, in addition, the rumored charter ing and arming of seven steamers for revenue cutter duty in the Behring Sea proves correct, the U. S. navy force will number twenty-three ships against the five British gunboats and one armored vessel at present protecting Great Bri tain's interests in the North Pacific. This will increase the alxive force by still another vessel. It is calculated that ten war ships are now in position fur mobili zation at San Francisco inside of forty days. Six war ships are ready for imme diate work. In view of the present Behring Sea controversy and the rumored chartering of seven steamers for revenue cutter duty, the above disposition is deemed ominous. As the fishing season does not begin ear lier than May, the concentration of war ships can be affected lefore the revenue cutters are ready to proceed to the Beh ring Sea. It is believed that the whole U. S. force in the Pacific will then con centrate off Port Townsend. Some bood Indians. Washington, Jan, 4. The commis sioner of Indian affairs has, in response to a telegram sent to Agent Boyer at the Pine Ridge agency, inquiring as to whether any of the Indian scouts or jiolice have joined the hostiles, received the following reply from the agency, dated the 3d: "None of our enlisted scouts have joined hostiles. Captain Seward gave three permisson to go to the hostiles camp after their families, who have not yet returned. Police and scouts are rendering good service, and by their vig orous firing prevented the hoetiles from burning agency buildings." A reporter to-night called the atten tion of the commissioner to reports from Iine Ridge saying that General Miles had recommended the removal of the Indian agents at Pine Ridge and other places, and to the statement that the Indians were slowly starving to death. The commissioner said that so far as the agents were concerned there were no evidence that there had leen dishonesty on tleir part in distributing supplies. He said he was preparing for publication a full statement of the amount of sup plies voted by Congress and distribution to Indians. The commissioner has sub mitted to the President a statement cov ering the question of the charge made that the agreements with the Indians have not been fulfilled. A Legislator Held for Harder. Gcthrie, Okla., January 5. I. N. Terrill, a Representative from Payne county in the Legislature which has just adjourned, and who put through the criminal code, yesterday snot ana in stantly killed George W. Einbrec. Terrill went to the United States Land Office a few days ago to make final proof on his quarter section in Payne county, twenty miles northeast of here. Embree, who lived four miles from the claim, in troduced evidence which tended to dis credit Terrill's right as a homesteader. Embree's evidence was all in yesterday and he had sworn to it. As he wag leaving the Land Office Terrill and his brother met him at the door. liot words were exchanged and I. N. Terrill drew a revolver and fired five bullets into Embree's body, while the other Temll pinioned his arms. Any one of the five wounds would have produced death. Both ' Terrills are now at the United States millitary camp heavily guarded by troops. Ie Jeniamptlea Inearattle. Kead the following. Sir. C. H. Morris, New ark.

A terrible explosion occured last Saturday in the coal mine at Ostrau. Up to to-day CO bodies of victims have lieen recovered, and there are believed to le more in the pit. The bodies of the unfortunate miners which have 1 x'n recovered present a hor rible appearance. They are terrilJy scorched and so dreadfully mutilated that it is very difficult to identify them from their features. Seventeen of the men who were recovered in an uncon cioiLs condition have since lieen revived. Heartrending scenes are witnessed at the mouth of the pit as the rescuing irties continue to bring the mangled forms of the ill-fated miners to the surface Most of the victims of the explosion were married and were men of family, and the lamentations of their liereavcd relatives, who have crowded alout the fatal spot, are pitiful in the extreme.

Mr. Lazard was in the East during the recent snow-storm, and was talking alout what the rieople in Pennsylvania called a blizzard. "They thought the two-foot fall of snow was something to talk about," continued the visitor. "But if they would visit Alaska about two hundred miles up the Vucon river they would find snow that for miles is so thick that the banks almost reach the skies. If it keeps on accumulating as fast as it has during the past ten years scientific men will not lie able to say truthfully the earth is round. I was in Alaska in lS8o, and that year the snow fall was quite Jieavy. Snow that falls their remains, for it never nielto." ttti- caffo Tribunr. To PrfTent Being Haiti d Hire.
