new and promising mining district was

ACCUMULATION or BULLION AND THE NEcEs-
urr OF RAILROAD TO ELKo.-In the White
Pine News of the 10Th inst, we clip the fol-
lowing sensible remarks on the importance Of
railroad to this point. and to facilitate the
transportation to market of the vast amount Of
base bullion that is accommodating in that dis
trict.
The accumulation of base bullion and ores
ana how to get them to market cheaply and
eXpeditiously, are becoming serious subjects
The Enc and Elko mines (base) have each a
contract with San Francisco parties to furnish
4OO tons OF ore. The Alsop Smelling Comma
ny has about 100 tons Of bullion on hand,
and other furnaces will probably swell the
amount piled up in the district to over 200
tons. These facts, together with the contin-
ued discovery of large veins of base metal
ores on the western slope Of Treasure Hill
the Base Metal Range, and White Pine noun.
tain, suggests a railroad from Hamilton TO
Elko as the only means by which our iucalcu-
iaole supply of metals can be transported TO
market and turned into ready money. With
a railroad to relieve Them of their bullion and
bring them quick returns, a sufficient number
OF smelling furnaces would be erected at once
70 turn out lGO tons daily. With full work.
ing force in all the base metal mines already
developed. ore sufficient can be produced To-
turn out loo tons of bullion per day. The
average yield OF our base ores ia ifty per cent
OF buIlion. No one familiar with the extent
OF our base metal area will doubt for n mo-
ment that from 300 to 500 tons of ore can DO
produced daily. This will never be done un-
less we have railroad to transport tho bull
lion to market cheaply, and at the same time
give us quick returns in money As there are
several competent typographical aud railroad
engineers in our midst. we would suggest that
our leading mine owners aud wealthy citi-
zens make up purse and have the survey
run from here TO Elko, together with close
estimate Of the cost OF construction. Unless
omething is done in the matter. our district
will continue to languish, for II is next TO i'm.
possible for teams to do our freighting. aud If
hey could, the prices charged md the time
'equired will continue to deter capital from
pyssting and to discourage labor 10 tho dovel- |

co1I1s1ox.-on Monday night, about eight

O'Clock. a collision occurred between two
freight trains, in front Of the Cosmopolitan
Hotel. The regular freight train going west
was preparing to switch on the main track In
order to hitch on a caboose, when a special
train came round the curve, and on a signal
being given the engine was reversed and
breaks put down. but not in time to prevent
running into the freight train, which was
then moving back. but owing 10 the sleet on
the track but little speed could be made. The
locomotives came together with considerable
force. but no particular damage was done, e1-
cepting to the locomotives Mikado and Her
aid. who lost their cow-catchers; the Herald
sustaining some additional damage by the
breaking of springs under the tender. We
believe this is the first collision that has ever
occurred on this division.

stood near him, at the same time leap
ing upon the capstan.
Every one was startled by a shrill
blast from the warders trumpet. A
hundred Templars' swords leaped from
their scabbards at the blast"

the young commander. "The next GER
emory in the programme is for the Sir

boat to make visit to our friends on

Knights formed a double line to the

How TO Make the Boys Good Farm.

erS.
Induce them to take an interest in the
farm, in the implements, in the stock;
tell them all your plans, your successes
and failures; give them a history OF
your own lite, what you did and how
YOU lived when boy; but do not harp
too much on the degenerate character
of The young men of the present age
praise them when you can, and en-
courage them to do still better. Let
them dress up for the evening, instead
of sitting down in their dirty clothes in
a dingy room. Provide plenty oflight;
thanks to kerosene, our country homes
can be as brilliantly and as cheaply
lighted as the gas-lit houses in the city.
Encourage the neighbors to drop in
evenings. Talk agriculture rather than
politics. speak more of the Importance
of large crops, of good stock, Of lber-
al feeding, and OF the advantages OF
making animals comfortable, rather
than Of the hard times, low prices and
high wages. Above all, encourage the
bows to read good, agricultural books.
Papers are all well enough, but an intel:
ligent boy wants something more and
better. Get him some good agrlcul-
tural book to study. Read it with him
and give him the benefit of your expert
ence and criticism. When he has
mastered this, buy him another. In
our own case, we owe our love for farm
ing principally to the fact that our father
talked to us Of every thing that was do
ing on the farm; answering all oul
questions and encouraging, rather thar
refusing, our childlike desire Of helping
him to pillow, to chop, to let off water
and fire the brush heap.

Letter from Ritchie-COntest for the
Sherifalty.

Editors of the Register:
The Board of Supervisors have been
at work since yesterday, counting the
vote gwen on last Thursday, and we
thought they had arrived at their de-
cision relative to the respective MAORI
ties of each candidate voted for, and
would accordingly enter resolution
upon then journal in conformity with
the ascertained result. But it seems in
this we were mistaken. The two pre-
cincts thrown out on yesterday, (which
belonged to Clay township" for inior-
malities, are to have an overhauling to-
day or tomorrow, which, if de-
cided in opposition to their former
decision. as we have every reason
to believe, will bring about a material
change. Instead of securing the cleo
ton of the independent candidate for
Sheriff, it will elect the regular Radical
candidate and will also elect a Radical
Supervisor in place of a Democrat.
Such intrigues, practiced by party so
late in the day, and which have re-
ceived at the hands Of the White men Of
this county so severe a re6uke at the
election which has just past, deserves
the condemnation Of all honest and
just men. IL is generally believed when
men are about to die they make full
confession Of all their bad deeds, and
try to convey to those who stand around
their bedside that they have received a
full and complete pardon for all their
sins. But the Radical party, whilst in
the last agonies OF political death, sticks
to its dishonest traits of character, and
DEFY redemption when offered. What
a deplorable condition One thing
is certain, and that is, they will
have no political resurrection; instead of
saying farewell to all their greatnes, twill
be recorded on their political tombstones
"Alas a long farewell to all their mean
ness" 80 mote it be" Richie,
though she has been cheated out of
some of her officers, will at the next
election, when registration will have
paid its last tribute to Radicalism, take
her seat with her white sons of liberty
far above the ruins Of registration and
political demagogism, and sing the
sweet song of constitutional liberty.
