We were yesterday shown dispatch
stating that W. L. Prltchard has pur-
chased the interest Of Gilmer 4 Salisbury
in the Eureka and Palisade. Narrow
gauge Railroad. This transaction is of
much greater importance to Eureka than
appears on the surface, At least por-
ton Of the cid company had gone as far
with the enterprise as their available
means would permit and but for the
sale under notice the road would neces-
sarily have stopped at the Twenty-mile
Station for an indefinite period. As
matters stand now, however, not less
than twenty, possibly forty, additional
miles will be constructed the present
season. As intimated by the Sentinel at
the time. this narrow-gauge transaction
was what brought the Sharon party to
Eastern Nevada. There are now associ
ated with Mr.. Prtchard number Of
capitalists who are abundantly able to
push the work right along to a speedy
completion.-[ Eureka Sentinel, 23d.
