NOT A HUMBUG.

We are ain" with the Enterprise in de-
nouncing that class of mining swIndles by
which the reputation of the really good
mines of this State is damaged; but our
"quarto" neighbor made huge mistake,
on Wednesday morning, in giving the
"Washoe United Consolidated Gold and
Silver Mining Company, Limited" as an
example of the imaginary mines in which
such extensive operations are carried on
in the East. The company and the mines
have an actual existence. We are inform
ed by responsible parties in Gold Hill,
that the company have two mills in Hum
boldt county, and are now erecting an
other on the Truckee. Their general
agent and Superintendent is Col. O'Con-
nor, and they have bank account here to
the figure of several thousands. Whether
the richness of their mines is as great as
represented, may perhaps be doubtful ;
but they are going ahead with their mills
as though their confidence was unbound
ed. As to the magistrate, jackson Bar
wise," we are not informed; but are
inclined to think that even that function
ary ia not a myth,

Forenoon stock Sales.

The KEARsARGE. Captain Winslow
has addressed note to the press, to cor
rect an erroneous impression concerning
the amount of prize money which is due
the crew of the Kearsarge. He says:
The law regulating prize money appi-
cable to the case Of the crew Of the Kear-
sarge is two hundred dollars head for
each person on board the Alabama. This
will give the crew a little over thirty
thousand dollars. Had the Alabams been
brought into port and not sunk, the whole
value of her, by the prize law, would
have belonged to the crew, which, as she
cost fifty-eight thousand pounds, would
be nearly three hundred thousand dollars.
It will be seen by this that it is rather q
losing business to Jack to sink ships at
sea, and when he learns the recent law
made he will be reading it that he must
put his shot in above the water line, and
never below. We learn that the amount
raised to be equally divided among crew
and officers of the Kearsarge is something
less than twenty-five Thousand dollars in
New York, and about eight thousand dol
lars in Boston. The crew had letter
read to them, when in the channel, from
the Secretary of the Navy, that it was the
intention of the President to ask Congress
to appropriate sum equal to the full
value of the Alabama for distribution as
prize money, as it was Judged that the
service rendered to the country fully war
ranted it. -------- -.

The Washington correspondent of the
Bulletin, says:
From the moment when his victorious
troops entered the city, Gen. Sherman has
made its rebel population realize that the
Government of the United States is as be-
nefcent as it is powerful ready to for
give the repentant rebel as to crush the
treason-as honorable when its conquest
is effected as unrelenting in whatever pres
sure was necessary to the conquest
Sherman has challenged the respect first
and then the confidence Of the people
whose interests are now at his mercy
As a consequence, we find them already
yielding cheerful obedience to the National
authority, manifesting returning love for
the Old Flag, and leading of in an appeal
to The Governor of the State to call con-
vention and give the people an opportu-
nifty to say whether they win have peace
and return to the Union, or further desc
lating war for the maintenance of the
chimera Of Confederate Independence
That this evidence of returning sense Is
the result of sincere sentiment on the
part of the people of Savannah is further
shown by the fact that many Of their old
merchants are already canceling their
debts due to northern merchants at the
commencement of the rebellion. Even
where debtors are unable to settle up their
accounts in full many are sending some
thing on account, with the promise that
the remainder shall be forwarded at the
earliest possible date. There are rumors
also that the President is now in com.
municatiou with influential Georgians,
through whom he is already engaged in
promoting measures for a speedy return o.
the State to the Union fold.

GOLD HILL BuII1oS.-Wells, Fargo s
Co. shipped from their Gold Hill office,
this morning, bullion valued at $2l,S47 CO.
The shipments from this Office. for the
month of January amounted to $27l,-
1877 so. 1t is a matter of regret to those
who feel local pride in the amount Of
business transacted in Gold Hill, that the
reduction and shipment of Gold Hill bull
lion is conducted through Virginia Offices,
instead of the local establishments. 1t is
estimated that sixty per cent. of the bull
lion product of Nevada is from the Gold
Hill mines, yet from the manner in which
the business is transaxfed, the shipments
from Gold Hill are insignificant compared
with those from Virginia.

THE LEGISLATURES.

The Senate, yesterday, adopted reso-
luton to hold three sessions per day
morning, afternoon and evening. This
resolution evinceS either a laudable desire
to do "a fair days work for fair days
pay" or, disgust for and desire to
abbreviate the business in which they are
engaged. Whatever motive may have
prompted the resolution, its adoption will
be approved by the people. Mr.. WintOn
gracefully apologized to Mr.. Sumner for
branding him as "a dastardly coward"
and Mr.. s., with equal grace, accepted
the apology. Satisfactory. Mr.. Clagett,
speaking to question of privilege, desires
to inform the people of Storey county that
his invitation to "howl and howl again, I"
only extended to the ofRce-holding, non
admirers of Mr.. Clagett. Clagett, "as a
general thing, don't care much what the
newspapers say about him." That 5 an
even stand OFF.
The Senate then proceeded, in the Gus
tomary form, to mash ont Gov. Blasdel,
twice more, by passing over his head
the vetoed "Birdsall" and "Washoe
Turnpike Bills" In the course of the de-
bate, Senator Seely kindly remarked tina!
he "was prepared to excuse his Excel
lency, on the ground that he meant well
enough, but that his ignorance of the true
meaning of the English language had led
him into an insult to the Legislature. y
This kind expression of charity must fall
like soothing balm on the wounded
breast of the Governor. The House con-
current resolutions las published the other
day), relative to the sale of bonds, was
taken up. The preamble was amended
by striking out all that alluded to the Pa
ci6c Insurance Company's offer to take
$4,000 worth of bonds, and also all that
referred to the sale of scrip issued to men,
bers of the Legislature, and then passed.

SrARTLING!

Our friend, "CosMos" has been over
hauling the recently published Report Of
the Committee of Ways and Means, and
figuring up therefrom the amount of taxes
which the people of the State of Nevada,
and more particularly those of Storey
county, viii be called upon to pay for the
next fiscal year. The figures are startling,
and rouse US to keen sense that the re-
duction of our expenses to the lowest
possible figure, is not only a measure OF
sound policy, but an absolute necessity.
The figures are fearful; and we recon-
mend their attentive study, not only to
our legislators, but to every citizen who
is SO fortunate % as to be a taxpayer in
the State Of Nevada and county of Storey

The MINT REPoRT.-The report OF the
operations of the United States Mint at
Philadelphia and its branches has been
published. The Director states that the
reports from the gold and silver mining
regions Of the country are very satisfactory
and indicate an abundant and increasing
production. 1t appears that the gold de-
posits for the fiscal year 1888 amounted to
$23, 1888, $3.50, the silver TO $sSS,SlS-a
total Of about twenty-five millions OF bull

345 in gold. $64S,214 in silver and $685.
800 in cents-making in all nearly forty
seven millions of coins Of every denomina-
ton. The report says that the demand
for the one and two cent pieces has been
unprecedented, and every effort has been
made to meet it. but the demand still con-
tinues, asths coin Is bought up, hoarded
by brokers and sold at premium, greatly

This amount in (gold coin) to be taken
out of voting population of less than
5000 voters. Can the people stand the
taxess Here we are, with only about
one-half of last years taxes paid in-and
why not. Because they have not got the
money. And here you are piling it on at
a compound rate, assessing them still
more. This system Of legislation is max
ing the rich richer and the poor poorer.
Sum it up as you may, it is the poor who
pay the taxes. They are the losers, save
when excessive taxation reduces the value
of real estate, and then all suffer. Such
is the condition of affairs now. When
we agreed to 60 for State it was argued
it could be carried on at an expense but
little above that of Territory. So far,
all right. Your estimated expenses as per
Controllers report is $l97,7s0. For all
the interest to be paid on bonds and bonds
maturing, you have the revenue of 1854,
now going and gone-in, to meet; and yet
you tax the people of the State in the
sum of $447,5O0, including your $4,000
deducted for expenses and delinquent
taxes.
So it will be seen that taxes, taxes,
taxes, is the order of the day. Do you
think the people are made Of money
Have you forgotten that it has been year
of great oppression Have you forgotten
that we are carrying on war, the ex-
pense of which is almost unbearable taxa
ton within itself, and which taxes must
and should come, though every thing else
go delinquents
Ask yourselves again this question,
will the people stand the taxess Do
away with the stamp tax curb the power
of our County Commissioners reduce
taxation save the people from oppression,
least they in their majesty, to save them
selves, should form combinations for the
purpose of putting your laws at defiance,
and thereby clog the wheels of State as
well as county governments. Cosmos.
