BATTLE WITH THE EL.-NEN rS.

There has been a great deal of trouble
on the Central Pacific for the last week.
y dispatch from the Summit To The
Sacramento Record of the 4th inst.
furnishes a pretty good idea Of the eX-
traordinary efforts it has required to
keep the road opei: for travel. We
quote from the Records Geographic
advices as follows:
Last night a freight train was ditched
between summit and Truckee. y large
force OF men MAS sent out from the lat
ter place. and the track was cleared this
afternoon AT O'Clock.
The snow plow coming from Alta to-
night ahead of the passenger train
stuck in the snow half a mile west
of here, and for a time it Ma> feared
that the storm would win the fight.
But wen engines in the hands of men
who seem to have forgotten what the
word danger means. forced il passage.
and the Central Pacific is still OF EN- Tor
travel.
1t i harl 10 tell how the struggle
with the storm will end. Railroad men
who have braved the dangers of the
mountain Winters for veaIs have never
before witnessed anything like this.
and they are naturally de>pondenl in
regard to the issue of theunequal tigh;
in which they are engaged. The rail-
road managers are. however. deter

PROSPECTS OF THE STATE.

The indications point strongly To the
conclusion that the coming season i'll
Nevada will be II of unprecedented
prosperity. Never in the history of
the Commonwealth were the prospects
more promising than to-day. The
mines of all the old established
districts are showing better than
heretofore, and Il number of new dis
tricts will. during the season near
at hand. be made to. add largely to
the bullion product of the state. Rob
in>on. Cherry Creek. Troy, Morev.
Cornucopia and perhaps some others
that have not hitherto taken promi-
nent rank''aS bullion producers. are all
in an advanced state of develop
ment and each may be confidently
expected to contribute a fair quota of
y wider field for labor at remunera-
tive prices and enlarged demands for
all branches of industry. business and
enterprise will thus be insured. Under
such favorable circumstances the pop
ulation and wealth of the State must
necessarily be augmented i'll a very
marked degree.
The agricultural and grazing inter
e>t> must also pro>perin a correspond
ing ratio. Indeed. the vast deposits of
snow in the mountains will render
good crops a certainty in all parts of
the State. For the same reason water
for milling and other purposes neces-
sary to successful mining will be
abundant. At least eighty additional
miles of railroad the Eureka
and Pali>adel will be in opera
ton before the beginning of 1879.
All things considered. therefore, we
are firm in the belief that the year 1874
is to be the livelie>t and most prosper
Gus ever witnessed in the Sagebru>h.
