items in foreign papers, like one
quoted. SAYS the editor:


quoted. Says the editor:
Gov. Bradley reads the item and,
rubbing his hands, says: "We must
have it! We must have it ~ He HES
to his Office, and the next mail from
Nevada's Capital carries the Annexa-
ton Resolutions to our Legislature.
Now that they see tons upon tons of
mining and milling machinery pass
ing through their State en- route for
Alpine, and o that our mines are
not a myth, the Nevadans are anxious
to possess us. We have no fears
that California will part with us.
Mother California, with her fifty
gushing daughters and 556, 613
children, has treated Us, one of her
youngest, very kindly, and we have
no desire to leave her abode of peace
and plenty. and go into a starving
family. where we would be looked to
for a support. As we feel in regard
to this annexation scheme, so, We
believe, do all the people in the
coveted territory. We are Califor-
mans. thank God. and will remain
50. Alpine county Is destined to be
10 California what Storey county has
been to Nevada. This may seem
strong talk. but We believe it will
prove as We say. California, straight,
Governor : no annexation" in ours,
Notwithstanding all this, Nevada
is not dying with jealousy, nor
particularly anxious for Alpine ac-
foundations. Yet since the Chron-
icle has taken so much pains to let
us know its value, wo would advise
Alpine hereafter to keep coil, and
roost hi9h.

sUTRO TRIUMPHANT.

The Board of Sutro Tunnel Com.
mssloners have submitted their re.
port to Congress recommending the
work to the attention of that body
This is a great triumph to Mr.. Sutro
who has contended with enormous
odds in pushing his measure through
Congress. The dispatches of Janu-
any 9th are as follows
The report of the Sutro Tunnel
Commissioners was transmitted to
the Senate to-day. The Commits
sloners report that the tunnel is
entirely feasible, and may be con-
structed in less than two and a half
years, at a cost of about four and a
half millions. They believe that
the Comstock lode is a true assure
VEN, continuing down indefinitely,
and express the opinion that while
the tunnel is not a necessity for ven
tllatlon or draining, yet any scheme
which promises increased economy
IN the working Of the mines and
rendering valuable a vast amount
of now worthless low-grade pres in
the Comstock lode, it becomes of
national Importance. Whether the
Sutro Tunnel project fultills this
condition OF economy depends on
the efficacy of the methods now en-
plOyed IN Germany and other coun-
tries in Europe for the concentra-
ton and profitable working of low
grade ore On this point the Com
mission has not in this country, by
personal investigation, been able to
obtain the desired information. In
conclusion, the report commends the
Sutro Tunnel to favorable considera-
ton, as an exploring work for deep
mining.
This Sutro Tunnel has not only
met with fierce opposition from in
terested parties, butfrom the almost
united press ofthis State. The State
Register, we believe, is the only
paper in Nevada that has advocated
Sutro's project. That the reasons
we have frequently assigned in these
columns we're correct is abundantly
confirmed by the official report of
these army officers and engineers.

MINING PATENTs.-The Salt Lake
Herald says:
A recently published sale of one
of u best mines in London is re-
ported to have fallen through be-
of aiaw in the title. Agentle-
man in a position to know, informs
US that London mining operators
are entirely satisfied of the richness
of our mines, but that to negotiate a
sale of a mine at large price, a
United States patent to it is an es-
sentlal prerequisite.

FIsK's PERSECUTION OF STOKES
New YORK, January Sth.-No one
believes. for 4 moment, that Stokes
will be hanged. 1t is believed he
will be sentenced to prison for a
term of years and then pardoned.
His friends a he has had wrongs
enough at Fisk's hands to make any
man crazy. They claim that his
persecution by Fisk made him ire
sponsible for his conduct for months
past. They declare that when the
whole story is told the sympathies
of the public will be with Stokes,
who has been from the first foully
injured.
\ story is current, that two years
ago, when Fisk first had reason to
believe Stokes was his rival in the
affections of Miss Mansfield, he told
her Erie was going up on a certain
day, believing she would inform
Stokes aud he would attempt to
profit by the information. Fisk
was right. Stokes purchased Erie
heavily, Erie went down and Stokes
lost over 800, 900. This was Fisk's
financial revenge. 1t is said that he
boosted of it.
Mp AND TUCK.-Since the great
storm there has been no perceptible
difference in the time of the arrival
of the mail and express matter at
this place-when there has been any
such matter to come. Both come in
on snowshoes, and it is nip and tuck
which gets here first. I. S. slides
ahead, and "Old Fargo laps and
passes Sam. 1t often happens that
both go kiting down hill together,
SO that Il blanket would cover both
and SO they race between Bulliona
and this town. 1t makes no differ
ence what may happen on the road
both arrive at the same moment.
Both are brought in on the same
shoes, II shoe having painted on it
the initials ~. S. NJ" and It's mate,
Nv. T. II Co." so the postal law,
prohibiting the delivery of express
matter ahead of the mail is not vio-
lated by our mail carrier Alpine
Chronicle.

MEssRs. DRs. FRANK A. RAMSEY
and ]. Joseph Williams have removed
to No. 20, Madison street, a building
once famous as Delmonico's.
MARTIN DALEY, an old and well
known citizen, died yesterday evening,
at eight o'clock, very suddenly. He
came TO his residence on Adams street,
about dark, and seating himself, said
that his feet were cold. He called his
child, and speaking playfully to the lit
tie girl, lay down on the bedside and
expired. Due notice will be given Of
his funeral.
OUR OLD and respected fellow-citizen,
Captain Jonn t. Shirley, paid US a visit
yesterday, and we were pleased to learn
from him that he contemplates spend
ing the remainder Of his days among
us, and will once more become a Mem
phis business man. We are sure that
the multitude of his old acquaintance
will wish him all the success ne can de-
sire. Just now he is engaged in prose-
cutting a suit for damages for the destruc-
ton of his fine Ouachita river boat, the
Sabine.
PETER CUR, of SomerviIle, who
writes that he was born in 1892, never
forgets to renew his subscription to the
APPEAL, begun we believe thirty-twO
years ago. He refers with fearful eyes
to "the impending dissolution of the
Democratic party as a National organi-
zation." If this must come he should
not forget that they brought about the
calamity who accepted the new depar-
ture. Perhaps when it departed" its
living soul was left behind to vivify
another body immortal as the political
creed of men like Peter Culp.

RIVER INTELLIGENCE,

The river rose eight inches, and stands
thirty feet i've inches above extreme
low water mark, and has a depth of six
fathoms In the channel from Cairo
down. The water level opposite this
city is four feet below the high water
mark of 1867. The present rise will
hardly exceed another foot, as it has
been Stacking off quite fast for the past
three days. Above Cairo to st. Louis
there is ten feet and falling, and the
Ohio is dropping fast from Pittsburg to
Louisville. Below the latter point the
water is over the banks in many places.
and owing to the floods from Cumber-
land and Tennessee, Green and Wabash.
the decline viii be slow for some time
A slight swell is reported in the Miss
ouri, while the upperM ississippiis about
stationary. The lower tributaries are
full, and likely to remain so. White, as
well as the Arkansas, is falling. with
nearly eight feet to Little Rock. The
weather is partly clear, with a light
breeze from the southwest. Business on
the 1eyee yesterday was light, with few
arrivals or departures.

THE Mathushek Pianos, for which
Merriman & Wilcox, 1884 Main street
are thai Agents, have been subjected to
the closest criticism and the severest
tests both by those who are friendly and
those who are otherwise. The scale is
radically different from any other, and
Is 50 ingenious In Its construction, pro-
ducing such wonderful power and sweet
ness of tone as to attract the attention
and admiration ofmechanics, philosophers
and musical critics. It has, in eonse-
quenee of this, been looked upon as an
innovation by manufacturers and dealers
in other pianos, who being unable TO
find In 1t any weak points ToF assault,
have endeayored by unjust assertions to
prevent its successful Introduction; after
seven years Of thorough trial however, it
Is capable of demonstration that 1t has
more than vindicsted the hopes Of Its

THE THEATER.-The ushers and door
keepers were, Notwithstanding the cali
co ball, well patronized last night. The
house was not damned, but 1t was well
and comfortably filled. The entertain
ment was better, If anything, than we
have had during the week, and was
much appreciated by the audience, who
applauded rapturously, especially the
sea-song which Percy Roselle sings with
inimitable grade of manner and gesture.
Tonight, for his OWL benefit, the little
dramatic wonder will appear in the Bog
DetectfUe, and as "Prinee Arthur III
one act of King John, in which he has
a chance to display fully the histriOnic
power that in England first secured him
a distinguished place on the stage. OF
course the house will be crowded, as is
usual on Friday nights, by the fashion
and beauty of Memphis.
