,. Nicely JOHNSON.

We cannot hope to add anything of
well merited eulogy to the memory of our
departed friend whose name heads this
paragraph: for all that could be said in
testimony of his better qualities has al
ready been uttered by writer's and speak
ers far better qualified than we are for
the task. We may say. however, that
when Nicely johnson died one of our warm
est-bearted friends and best and most
hospitable neighbors went away forever.
1t is no disparagement to any man among
us to say that none of his toynsmen ever
proved himself more persistent friend
than he: and that no table was ever
spread in Nevada where pleasant re-
unions were so frequent and where the
strangers chair was placed with SO much
of constant, thoughtful and graceful hos
pita,ity. We doubt if any public man on
the Pacific Coast was ever able to claim
so large an acquaintance as our dead
friend: and over none who are gone has
an unaffected sense of personal loss been
more widely felt. May the grass grow
green above his distant grave : and may
such sweet memories as cluster about
him grow mellow with the mellowing fu- |

We are very proud Of the Grant and
Wilson Club organized here 1t is full of
enthusiasm and alive to the issues and
requirements of the campaign. The
meeting held at the Theatre ON the eve
ming of the 31st inst was one of the most
gratifying evidences of the war spirit of
this organization; for, although there had
been but short notice given; and, al
though the speakers were merely such as
home talent could afford when good
deal strained, $50 far as the first speaker
is concerned1, yet, with the help of the
glee club and the band. IA more earnest
and ardent demonstration of faith in
and love for the good cause has rarely
been exhibited here. Let Us have some
more such meetings; some more stirring
music; some more of not lettin. by-gones

feet in width, stood the store Of Messrs.
