me tllat those legislators WHO are OIL
such a hot anti-railroad crusade, take
n rather one.slded view OF matters, as
between the Legislature and the rail-
road.
The Rhsadcs Bondsmen.
In accordance with the recommended
ton made In the report of the Commit
tee on State Affairs, the Senate to-day,
by a vote Of II to Z, passed the bill re-
leasing the bondsmen of Eben Rhoade',
the late d~efaultlng State Treasurer.
This action seems to meet almost gen.
eral approval, as there a be no doubt
but It Is q measure of both wisdom and
economy. l think Mr.. Moore, in his
remarks on tho bill, gavo ~ Of the
best reasons why 1t should pass. He
said that heretofore the affairs of the
government of the State had been In
the hands of men from the western tier
Of counties. They had become corrupt,
and now the government Of the State
was In the hands Of honest men from
the "great East" And he wanted to
give the western folks n chance to
purify themselves and cleanse their
dirty linen, and wipe out all evidences
| of their former 'remissness. Mr.. Ste
venson made a very able and logical
argument in favor of the passage OF
tile bill ; showing that he possessed a
thorough knowledge Of the subject.
He did not charge the Board of Exam
liners with criminalitleS, but said 1t
was plain that they had been remisS in
the discharge Of their duties.
Bills have been introduced In both
Houses providing for the fostering Of
the Nevada Asylum. That IN the
House was introduced by Mr.. Grey. a
Protestant; and the one In the Senate
was introduced by Mr.. Phelan, a Cath
Ole. 1t has been a time-honored GUS
tom since the organization Of the State
to grant aid to this institution, and
there seems to be no disposition to
ignore the custom ut this session, be-
sides which, II is generally conceded
that the institution Is a benefit to the
State at large.
Mr.. Hoppin. of Humboldt, has given
notice, In the House, Of a bill to pro-
vide for the removal of the State Capt.
toll to Winnemucca. 1t ought to DO
done. Winnemucca Is now-or will
be, If the Governor signs the bill-tlie
county seat of Humboldt county. No
pent up Utica contracts the powers of
the Humboldt delegation, and having
won their main fight (the removal Of
the county seatl they are now-like
Carson-going for everything in sight.
Give 1t to them by all means and the
State University and the Penitentiary,
and anything else their modesty will
permit them to take. We want you to
understand that Winnemucca aint no
SLOUGH now.
The bill for the relief of Thomas A..
Waterman, for time and money en-
pended in the organization Of Elko
county, passed the Senate to-day by a
unanimous vote. 1t calls Tor 81, 200,
but rs 1t has got to pass the ordeal Of
the House and the Governor, Thomas
cat not as yet slap his hip pocket with
much confidence.
The Senate was engaged nearly all
Of to-day In Committee of the Whole
In consideration Of the bill making
appropriations for the ninth and tenth
fiscal years. Many amendments were
made and the Committee recommend
ed the engrossment of the bill. When
1t comes up on its final passage l shall
endeavor to give your readers an ac-
count Of Its main features.
Carson school.
Through the kind invitation of Rev.
Mr.. Allen, Chaplain of the Senate, |
to-day in company with the cores
pondents of the San Francisco alta
and Sacramento Record, visited the
Carson Public School. Space will no
permit of an extended notice, but !
cannot refrain from saying that l was
much pleased and edited by my visit.
l had no idea that there was rs fine a
school-house in the State as Is that in
Carson, neither did l think that Car
son possessed so many school children.
The school is In charge Of Mr.. Howe,
formerly of tho Gold Hill school. He
appears to be quite a young man. but
he evidently knows his business, and
seems to have the scholars Of all the
different classes under his complete
control. One Of the classes which con-
tains quite a number of feminines that
would probably not like to be called
girls by a good looking man like your
Correspondent, and yet are hardly old
enough TO be classed rs young ladies,
favored us-assisted by the boys-so
some excellent singing, II Of the
aforesaid feminine gender playing the
cabinet organ with which the school is
furnished. The school building In Its
arrangement and furnishing Is q
model, and discounts anything
/ ever saw. Why, when i was a boy,
If children attended a school furnished
such MS this II is, they would have
thought themselves bloated a~ristecrats.
What pleased me most was the pri-
mary department, where a lot of little
boys and girls were taught enumera-
ton. 1t seemed SO natural to see the
