THAT the Telegraphic Press ar- | rangements in these parts are still | very imperfect is evident from the | fact that the first intimation touch- ingthat terrible conflagration, in- | volving the destruction of the entire | business portion of Central Ci Colorado, reaches Omaha through the Denver papers. —_— Tae Salt Lake Daily Tribune, | one of our most valued western ex- | changes, comes to us enlarged to & nine column quarto, and very mate- rially improved, in the editorial and general newsdepartments. The | Tribune has made 2 proud record in | its gallant and fearless fight against the Mormon hierarchy, and the twin relic of progressive barbarism. | Its progressive prosperity makes a | new and brighter era in the annals of Anti-Polygamy Journalism in | Utah. Nor content with paying $200,- 000 for the luxury of a miniature re- bellion, Arkansas now proposes to finish the short distance that sepa- rates her from irredeemable bank- ruptey, by organizing impeach- ments on the wholesale plan, as a sequel to the bloody war of te B's. The Arkansas Legislature has al ready set about this glorious task by impeaching the Judges of the Su- preme Court, several State officers and a number of disloyal sheriffs. Fortunately many of these offend- ers will consider impeachment at this stage of the game a most time- 1y blessing in disguise. — A DECISON just promulgated by Judge Dillon, of the U. S. Cireuit Court, in the case of Casper vs Buena Vista county, Towa, may be of some interest to many people in this State. The Judge holds that counties may issue negotiable securi- ties for borrowed money to aid in wpecific public improvement there- in, or to meet extraordinary ex- penditures, if previously authorized by a vote of the people, but not otherwise. Bonds under the seal and signed by the proper officers of the county, payable to bearer and containing a recital that they are issued pursuant to a vote of the people of the county, are pre- sumptively valid, although the par- ticular purpose for which the bonds ‘were voted is not therein stated. Already some of the eastern poli- ticians are planing to discredit the returns from the western counties. But that old cry of fraudulent re- turns wont wint, The returns are by sworn officers of the law, with names and residences and can’t so easily be jnvalidated. It doesn’t follow because the west is growing beyond the conception of eastern men, that therefore she isn’t grow~ | Total Loss Estimated at $750,- home.

CENTRAL CITY IN FLAMES. | Full Account of the Destruction of Central City. | | 000. Interesting Incidents of m|‘ Disaster. The startling intelligence of the | most destructive conflagration that | has ever transpired in Colorado, | reaches us through the Denver | World, of May 23: | The following extracts tell the sad | narrative of the fearful disaster that | laid the principal business por- [ tion of Centraf City in ashes last | Thursday within the brief period of | two hours, | It is now the generally accepted | belief in Central, that the fire origi- | nated in the Chinese quarter, in a | two-story frame tenement on Spring | street, near its junction with Grego- | ry, and opposite what is commonly | Enown as the big barn. The upper story of the house was occupied as a “washee” establishment, There had | been a death in the house, undu; celestial funeral was in progress; | conducted according to the rites of the Chinese religion, which included | something in the eremation line,for | whichan iron or tin vessel filled with live coals of fire in some of its forms was used. And it is the commonly accredited supposition that this was insome way upset, and the com- | bustible pitch pine of which the | floor of the building was made, igni- ted. The building being an old one burned almost as rapidly as tinder, | soon communicating the flames to | the adjoining house, which was built ofgike material, and in a brief of time Spring street was one e et i | Reaching Bridge street, the flames | quickly enveloped the half dozen or | more frame buildings thereon, and | then leaped across the gulch and | seized upon Lake’s frame store, on | Main street, and spread rapidly to the row of frame mercantile houses adjoining. Next, the flames reach. ed across Main street to Wisebart & Teller’s block. Then the main cloumn of fire divided, one portion going towards frame buildings on the same. Those who were striving to save their property on these two streets were | obliged to abandon the attempt on account of the intensity of the heat, and seek refuge on the mountain sides. And the destroying column of fire swept restlessly up Main street, destroying in its course all the largest and best filled stores in the city, dry goods houses, furniture establishm nts, jewelry stores, banks, ete.

Altogether a hundred and | fifiy buildings were consumed, Fif- teen wore briok and the rost frame. | Many were handsome and costly | structures. About four hundred per- | sons were left homeless.
