was a, the extreme end Of the Central

day, that tho construction trains went

Of Austin. At Cedar Pass, some four
miles west of the Springs. the railroad
company has q force of some 800
woodchoppers, and J. NJ. Dorsey,
formerly Of this city, has 300, who are
reapiug the timber with the AK. II is
estimated that the cedar and nnt-pine
timber of the locality will supply the
wants of the road for a couple Of years.
The wood is now carried as far west rs
Winnemucca. The railroad people were
having trouble with their Chinese labor
ers in consequence Of their foolish refu-
sal to permit them to devote several days
to the celebration Of their New Year

few days ago a copy Of newspaper
entitled The Christian Radical (Which
is about as expressive as Christian
DeviD published at Piltsburg. In it
we find long letter written at Holli-
daysburg, with the initials &C. l.. e.
Who the scalawag writer IS we do not
know, nor do we care, but for naked
lying and bearing false witness against
his ncighbors, he has few superiors.
The writer purports to have travelled
through this county, "and assisted a
young brother minister" at Luthers-
burg. If he is aclergyman, he needs
conversion because Wallace and Big
Ter seem to trouble him more than the
gospel. We will give his letter next
week, properly embellished, in order
10 draw him out The author is evi-
IDENTIFY seeking notoriety, and we will
give him n little by the time we are
through with him.

DEMOCRATS, TO WORK

Tho proceedings of the Democratic
State Convention will be found at
length in this issue. The names Of
tho nominees, it viii be seen, are at
our masthead, aud we are ready for
war upon Corruption, Despotism and
Radicalism in all their forms. Let
Democrats everywhere orga-ize, and
work for God and their country from
now until the second Tuesday of Oc-
tober. If they do this, the overthrow
of "the World, the Flesh and The
Devil" will be an easy task on that
day, American Freedom will be again
fully established, and the government
Of the State transmitted TO the hands
Of those who alonc are fit to admins
ter Democratic form of government.
Let Democrats organize in every Dor.
ough and township, for the purpose OF
getting their voters 10 the polls. We
have a prize to contend for. Our
nominees are gentlemen and states
men. Our opponents are troubled
with neither quality, but, on ibe con-
trary, their candidate for Governor is
the stool-pigeon of the most corrupt
gang Of men outside of the peniten.
tiary, and, if elected, will not only
billet tcenty-seren pastors and folders
upon the Treasury, but hundreds OF
them. Therefore, let all who wish 10
save the State from robbery and Ma
tional disgrace, labor for the election
of PACKER & PERSHING, and the
other two P's- Peace aud Plenty
will be sure to follow.
