CLOTHING COMBINATION.

DANNER BROS. & co. OPENED BUSl-
b ness In Virginia City May lst, 1865, for tho
purpose OF selling Clothing, Gents Furnishing
Goods, Boots, Hats, etc, at prices to SUIT them
selves, without regard to the ideas OF any one
celebrated Clothing Combination OF this city,
they tried to induce Us to Join In their compact,
which we would by no means agree 10 40, ano
this refusal by Us to accede 70 their proPosals
brought on the mmous Clothing Wa" nom
which Banner Bros. s Co. came out Victorious
war not easily to be forgotten BY the people OF
Nevada, who 80 largely prohted by II. 49,
Finding all their efforts TO run US OUT OF t9wn ~
and break US up quite useless, sSd sne bey had an
agreement drawn up which they wanted tne San
francisco merchants to sign, by the terms OF
which they the San Francisco merchants) were

the terms submitted TO theuD with the with

Here again they were doomed 70 DISAPPOINTMENT;
but not satisfied with all the dirty work they had
Attempted, they resorted TO tricks stu dirtier.

facility and convenience for handling logs
and lumber. the mill IL kept on the
Jump, saving cross ties End stuff for cars.
1t seems to be capable Of cutting over
one thousand feet per hour. There is o
large amount Of cross ties on hand We
were told, however, they would only lay
between three and four miles of road
These ties are Of red and yellow ir eight
feet long, 3x3 inches, and are put so close
togeth>e as to cover one third Of the
ground.
In connection with this say mill, is
large planning machine and small turn
ing lathe. This planer 10 to dress the
lumber for the cars; will dress lumber
Of any size needed for this purpose, or
length. Some of the timber in cars now
built at this place, and being built, are
l2x14 inches in size, and so feet long.
There are also saws for cutting out circu-
lar work to be used in constructing car
seats, and all worked by steam. Near to
this - shop for car seats; they have q
large amornt Of seat timber on hand and
quite q number of seats in course
of construction. The entire seat.
including the cushion, is manu-
featured here. A few steps from this,
is the blacksmithshop where the iron
work of the shop is done. These shops
are being worked lively, and are we'll fur
nished with tools and material as we'll as
mechanics. The largest one Of the shops
is the car shop. This is neat frame,
well put up, 130 feet long by 80 wide
with work benches whole length, with
some 20 windows on each side and we'll
filled with glazed sashes. The garret is
finished up for storage and sleeping apart
ments for the men. The ends are opened
by large doors to admit the ingress and
egress Of cars. There are now two pas
senger cars in the course of construction
in this shop; the two occupy the full
length with barely room to work. There
are four cars called construction ears, fn-
ished and By the road side These are
Of very neat and substantial character.
We saw these cars examined by men di-
rect from n. y. who pronounced them of
the best quality as to finish ard subs ance,
both as to wheels and woodwork There
are at present 25 men engaged at the saw
mills and on cars, This strength has
been some reduced by sickness.
Take it altogether, We were agreeably
disappointed at the amount of work done,
and the thorough preparations made for
the large undertaking before them. We
talked with the men and inquired as to
how they had been paid. To all of which
We were told they had been regularly and
promptly paid according to agreement.
In conclusion we would say to our
neighbors of Benton, you often have bus
iness at Portland, aad when you are there,
it will cost you little to goout and examine,
for yourselves, these enterprises. This
We think is your duty.

POETRY.
The PRoFANE VILLAGE OF YUBA DAM, CALIFORNIA.

A travelling Californian
One morning met another man,
And asked, "What town is this ahcadf'
To which the other briefly said,
"You be damnp
On strodc tho traveller, some surprised,
But that the man was drunk surmisedj
For who, unless little high,
To civil questions would reply.
''You bo damn r.
While thus his cogitations ran,
lie overlook another man,
And him he questioned as before,
Receiving this rcply--no more
"You be damn"
