Pioche daily record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1872-1876, 1872-11-10


The BULLIoNvILLE RAILRoAp.-This
undertaking is being prosecuted with
the same commendable energy, that has
marked all the operations since the in
ception OF this enterprise. The grading
has advanced to point about opposite
the Alps mine. On that portion, from
the summit towards town, the track is
almost entirely completed. Col. Carter
IS using every exertion to advance the
work, and the rapidity of construction
shows that there is some one at the head
of affairs that we'll knows what he is
about. In the last day or two a consid-
cradle amount of iron has been received,
also some locomotive machinery.
Altogether most satisfactory progress is
being made and if the whole line is
completed at the same rate it will not be
long before the transportation of ore by
mule teams to Bullionville will be
thing of the past.
The PAST WEEK was an exciting one.
The election ON Tuesday and the pro-
longed counting of votes kept the public
on the tiptoe of expectation for sveral
days. Unfortunately, during the week
it was our unpleasant duty to chronicle
the death of one man by violence and
the severe wounding of another. Be-
sides that we had to record still another
death through accident in the mines.
AS noticed in another place the mines
present but few new matters for remark.
In this city the public seem generally
to nave settled down to their accustomed
avocations, glad that the strife of parti-
IAN warfare is over in which We most
heartily join.
ELECTION RETuRNs.-It seems to be as
difficult to get at the election returns of
the outside precincts of this county and
the State generally, as to find the philos-
opher's stone. Though every one is
DESTROYS of learning the result no one
seems to have had forethought sufficient
to send copies to the papers of this city
for publ cation The public will proba-
bly, have to wait for the official count be-
fore they can learn the vote cast for the
several candidates.
COUNTY CoMMIssIoNERs.-The Board

The formal opening and canvassing of
