II will be seen that Mark Twain and Horace
Greeley were not along; hence, we conclude
that what they know About Farming" is
not sufficient to entitle them to association
with agricultural editors. At Elko, Messrs
Charles l.. Perkins, and Hon John r. Kittrell
OF White Pine (being en- route TO Virginia
City to attend meeting OF the Democratic
State Central Committee), fell in with the
party. and unhesitatingly pronounce them
"good fellows Including the ladies' The
car. for the purpose Of eliciting information.
opinions and discussion. In a speech of one
hour and half, Kittrell imparteda great deal
OF interesting information in regard to the
mining. agricultural and grazing resources Of
Southeastern Nevada, all of which WAS news
to our Eastern friends; and Perkins gave them
a glowing description CT the mineral wealth
Of Cope, Bull Run, Bruno. Independence
