ExrLANAToRY.-Day before yestcr-
day an article appeared in the News
copied from the White Pine Necss
announcing the stopping of Mr.. Louis
Lille at Elko, by order Of Brown Il
Eager, of Virginia City, who charged
Mr.. Lille with selling property be-
longing to them, and converting the
proceeds to his own use and benefit.
\ friend of Mr.. Lille has waited upon
It's and explained the other side of the
question, which is to the effect that the
property sold by him was his own, and
not Brown q Eager's, and. that 1t con-
sisted Of a tract Of land on the six
teenth (schooD section, for which
he had q legal title from the State. and
for which he paid his W money.
Brown Il Eager had a saw mill OH the
land prior to its coming Into market
for sale; and, If we are correctly In
formed, it has been held by our Courts
that any improvements upon a piece Of
school land made priorto conveyance
by the State, eseheat to the holder of
the title to the land. Brown 6 Eager,
we believe, claim that Lille was only
their agent. Lille claims TINT he
bought the property from the State
with his own money, received the title
In his own name, and sold it in his own
name. The matter will be investigated
in our District Court next month, As
we published the item concerning Mr.,
Lilies being debarred leaving the
State until the matter was Investigated
In Court, justice to MI. Lille demands
that his side Of the case be also pub
lisled.

ATypE SETTING MArcH.-THE print
ers of the country are promised a sem
sation of their own in the shape of q
type-setting match for the champion
ship soon to take place-the time has
not been arranged-and which Will
probably lead to other matches until
the fast comps" are all brought ont.

Cincinnati Commercial, some time since
published q challenge to the craft,
Wherein he holds himself ready to set
type against any other man for ten
consecutive hours, for a purse OF
81, 1000. The challenge has been &C
cepted by George Armsberg Of the
New York Times, who has put down
the forfeit money. Since the art Of
tpye-setting has been known, the qies-
ton ofhow many types, according to
printers measurement, could be set up
and correetedinte ten hours'time has been
an open one, and now that an oppor-
tunity is, to be given of settling 1t, the
printers Of the country will not cease
to speculate upon it until the event
has passed. It Is claimed by those &C
auainted with these men that each has
set as much as 1900 ems Of type In
ten consecutive hours. When the read

THs AREA.

/ Nbill lhaS been before the Senate for
ZONE weeks, to expand the area OF the
State Of Nevada by the annexation OF
territory from within The present
boundaries of Utah and Idaho. SEN
ator Stewart is father to the bill. The
proposition Is made, Of course so far
rs Utah Is concerned, with entire DIS
regard of the wishes Of the people TO
be Topped off from righam's domain
the same as two years ago, when we
had am extension in that direction.
The policy Of Congress Is, while not
wishing to grapple with Mormonism
In its full growth, yet to limit and cir
cumscribe Il. Polygamy Is already
gfrdied. aud, like the forest tree, 1t
must succumb after a while.
In the case Of Idaho, the portion
proposed to be annexed to Nevada
stands smiling like q ripe maiden,
ready for the altar aud willing. The
following cogent reasons are furnished
In q petition Of the people Of Owyhee
county, for annexation to Nevada:
We, the undersiEnsd, citizens Of owyhse
County, l. T., and residents Of the district
proposed 10 be annexed to Nevada by the
Annexation Bill, respectfully ask Congress
to pass said bill, or one.of similar import,
and assign as some among many reasons Tor
its passage:
~yelopnnsnt OF our mines.
ID. It will more effectually secure and pro-
tect capital when 80 invested.
Sd. It will facilitate the building Of tsle-
----h-.l sk.- snnnpNvAnnAntl.
4th. Il will promote Official integrity-aiso
needed.
9Th. It will do no harm to any one, except
to somewhat contract the dimensions OF .
| Territory which seems TO have been set apart
as an asylum for infant and invalid Statesmen.
This, from the people Of the terri
toriaT strip proposed to be taken on
from Idaho, looks like buslness-looks
practical and very sensible. These
people are mostly California and Ne
vada people, who have learned their
habits on this Coast and like the ways
of our people. They are not In love
with the "Pilgrims" from the older
States, nor the stragglcrs from the
rebel contingent neither are they In
fatuated with the web-feet from
Oregon. They are not that sort OF
people, and they petition, as above, to
be cast with the people who are Of
their sort.
The people outside of the section
proposed to be attached are making q
great ado about it. They demonstrate
against taking OF such valuable terri
tory, with so large a number of their
| host citi-nns vlpy are ri0ht abOut IL.
After taking off this section settled
from Nevada, the Territory Of Idaho
would be poor indeed; we want to
have Owyhee county aud Tom Butler
annexed, and the web-feet and the
tender may walk of. = Whts Pine

T,rr gold dollar of the present coir

TIE gold dollar Of the present coin
age weighs 25.s grains, and contains
1922 grains of pure gold. The bill
introduced by Judge Kelley, on Febru-
arg 9th, provides that the gold here
after coined shall contain for each
dollar of UNCONVENTIONAL value lla
.rammes Of pure gold, and shall weigh
for each dollar lsa grammes, preserv-
ing the proportion of alloy OF N part
in ten. This new dollar coin would
weigh 25,12 grains, aud would contain
a3.i5 grains of pure gold. This re-
duction, If carried into effect, would
cause a diminution in the value Of the
gold coinage of thirty-one ten-thou-
