FIRE At CARSON.
From the Carson Rcgister.l

The hay yard opposite the Mint and
adjoining the railroad track, was yes
terday about IL o'clock A. N. dlscov-
cred to be OH fire. Scarcely was tie
alarm gwen ere the whole was one
lurid mass Of flame. The Curry En-
CINE was on the ground instantane-
Ously, and two streams were thrown
on the buildings. In u short time the
Warrens arrived, and after some little
delay got to work. The boys worked
like heroes, or more properly speak,
Ing like salamanders, for they rushed
into the flaming vortex like madnen,
but In vain; the wind was blowing 4
gale, the sheds were old and dry rs
Under, and the hay and other light
material fed the flames. The heat was
intense, but still the brave boys bat
tied, and though 1t was impossible to
stay the flames as to the premises on
fire, other buildings and large quanti-
ties of wood were saved.
The hay yard was the property Of
d. G.. Corhett, and was uninsured.
His loss Is at least $1,000. besides some
fifteen hogs, principally small ones.
The yard was rented by c. Z. Ather-
ton, than whom a more estimable gen.
tleman does not live. He lost, in hay
and grain, ut least 81 0 besides tho
stoppage in his business. Tho loss
falls very heavily on Mr.. Atherton,
and he has the earnest %sympsthies Of
the entire people.
Three horses were burned, two Of
them belonging to Mr.. Fish. and the
other, poor old "Doc," the white dray
horse. known to every man. woman
and child In Ormsby county. doc "
was brought across the plains by Jas
per Craig in 1853, and has been a dray
horse ever since. He has changed
owners many times, and never was
owned by any one that did not do we'll
with him. doc" vas old, had lived
beyond the patriarchal age Of horses.
He died a terrible death, but died much
respected.
Everything round and about the
yard was burnt to q cinder nothing
but a sulky, a few bales Of hay and
and about two cords Of wood were
saved. The hose and pumps Of the
Corbett house and the Mint did good
service in cooling the fronts Of tho
buildings OH the windward side Of the
street.
The fire boys did, rs they always do,
nobly, heroically, and every fire that
occurs only makes the fact the more
patent to all that the Carson fire COM
panies CAL beat the world.

LAUDAMUs JONES.

We are privately informed that the
editor Of the Enterprise has a long
three-column editorial already in type,
headed. "Welcome to Mr.. jones'"
awaiting the arrival OF that gentleman
from San Francisco, where he has been
attending to his stock transactions for
several weeks past. He Is expected
to arrive in a day or two, when the
whole three columns Of reckless poet
ical and ~prosaical adulation will be
launched upon poor Jones' head.
Worse than this, We hear that he con-
templates a public reception, a dinner
and a torchlight procession, to wind
up with burning Sharon in eifiigy In
front Of the Enterprise office, with the
inscription above his head: "rhls is
William, tho King Of the Monopolists.
Vote for Jones'" We are sorry to see
our worthy contemporary taking up on
either side In this Senatorial matter.
He will slaughter Jones and elect
Sharon. Meanwhile We shall continue
to remain neutral.

UTAH IN 1890.

In the Utica Herald we find an inter-
esting table giving the relative rank Of
different States nc each census from
1870 to 1870. By 1t we notice that
Iowa has progressed the most rapidly,
its first census, in 1910. having placed
Il 10Th In the list, while the census OF
1870 places It l1th. Illinois has risen
from the 9th State to the 4th, while
South Carolina has descended from the
9Th to the 22d place. It 10 very easy to
trace the great advance In the States
where liberal and enlightened ideas
have prevailed. The former slave
States all gradually declined In impor-
tancc, while the free States steadily ad-
yanced. Iowa has really increased most
rapidly in its population, although ILL.,
nois stands 4th in the list by the last
census as Illinois dates back to 1910,
while Iowa's first census was taken In
1910. Two decades remain ere the CEN
tury closes. Within that time Utah
will undoubtedly have qualified herself
and have taken her position rs a State.
10 every careful observer 1t Is evident
that the O the "twin relic" Is
eradicated the more thoroughly shall
we be prepared to take our stand In the
list with those States which show the
greatest progression, rivaling H. I'm.
Dortance Iowa, the State OF liberal
principles. Old Connecticut Blue
Laws and heather polygamy must be
given up and forgotten, or remem-
6ered only with astonisement at our
present condition of comparative igno-
rance and bigotry. Some OF us may
be able to compare the standing OF the
various States at the close OF the ZEN
tury In 1890. What will be the rela-
tive position of Uah.-Sat Lake Irt-
bane.

REMlRklRlE DIFFUSION,

From the Ban Franeiseo bulletin. June md
Thursday evening while a lady wa
addressing the Suffrage Convention, q
ma suddenly appeared at her side
and responded "No" and "Yes" to
her questions. She looked around and
was startled by the sight of a man
with heavy mustache and whiskers on
one side OF his face. the other smooth
shaven. She was alarmed, aud the
singular looking person was arrested
and taken to the City Prison.
The man was DR.. c. Rogers, who
came here from Chicago about a year
ago and announce that he had a spe-
citic for the certain cur Of all nervous
and mental diseases In tho shape Of
medlcated oxygen. He called 1t the
elixir Of life.
Having rented spacious rooms on
Kearny street, he set up his retorts
aud went to work. Several remarEa-
Bile cures were performed by him
through the use Of the gases which he
generated In the retorts, and elated by
his success the Doctor announced that

He p~rofessed to have discovered that
there are enveloping the globe several

atmosphere In which a man may be

therefore, to exalt himself Into the
upper stratum, and he tried to accom-

did not wholly succeed, and finding

LIVELY TINES AROUND THE EMMA.
From q gentleman who came down

there are lively fighting times about

ANTI-MoNoPoLY

The Enterprise OF this morning con-
tains another of its long-winded, one
sided editorial appeals in favor Of Its
new found love, Jones, whose unfortu-
nate aspirations to the Office Of United
States SENATOR, render him subject to
such infections. The Enterprise editor
goes on to decry and berate anything
and everything Sharon has had any
thing to do with in this State as
mouopolles, forgetting how Justify
and faithfully he has stood up
for those very monopolies In times past
until he changed his allegiance from
Sharon to Jones, and saw thiags In an
other light, as doth Horace Greeley
nowadays. But OH friend Of the quill
In his over anxiety to show to the
people that Sharon Is the wicked con-
densation Of all grinding monopolies
and always has been, and as such
should be summarily rejected and
politically Ignored, neglects en-
tirely to show where there Is
any difference between Jones and Sha-
ron In that respect. except that Jones
has not had the chance. He forgets TO
show that Jones brought nothing into
the State, in fact, came here badly in
debt and during the short time he has
been here has only succeeded In COB
bling up the Crown Point and Savage
mines, and although hungrily reach
ing for more, tits with no view Of mo-
nopolizing anything. The Enterprise
would help Jones to gobble the whole
Comstock ledge, Sharon, Sutro and
all, itself included, yet would be able
to see nothing monopolizlng about 1t
IA long as It was Jones, and not Sha-
ron, that was doing 1t.
