ia, our sister town of Eureka, we would
sugcest that some steps be taken to raise
donation to be sent to Eureka as o
contribution from the citizens Of Phoebe.
7, il true, times are dull, hut still our
o;.izens could each spare a trifle, and the |
sgOregate would amount to quite a re-
soectable sum. In this connection we
are reioiced to be able to announce that |
the Phoebe Minstrels, actuated with a
most commendable spirit, have deter. |
mined to give one of their entertainments |
tor the benefit of the sufferers by the
Fnreka flood. We hope every one who |
can will take one or more tickets, and so
make the praiseworthy enterprise a
brilliant success. We all must feel
deep sympathy for those who are suffer-
ers by this terrible calamity. Let us put
those kindly feelings in practical form,
and each give his mite to help those on
whom misfortune has pressed 80 heavily.
An the towns in the State are giving
something-do not let Phoebe be the
last or the least.
PRospEcTs.- week just passed has
revealed but little change in the condi-
ton OF mining or ordinary business mat
tiers. Matters keep about the same in
all respects and will probably remain so
until the exploitation takes place of our
principal mines below the water level.
In the meantime, from what We can learn
from tuose who visited other mining
cepters. the condition of Phoebe is fully
equal to any, if we except those commu-
mites depending on the great Comstock
ledge. Many go from here to seek other
fields Of adventure, but they generally
return and conclude to cast their for.
tunes with those of Ely district. and we
believe that ultimately they will be well
rewarded for their faith.
LOCAL PoL1rIcs. the meeting Of
the several committees, we may suppose
that the local campaign is opened, and
the fun will soon commence. For our
own part we care but very little about
the politics OF the several candidates, so
long as they are honest, reliable and
competent men. There are good and
we'll qualified men in all parties. and it
does seem "a il it were about time for
conventions to consider those essential
qualities as indispensable in every can.
didate that they may choose to place
on their tickets. Let each party put
their very best men on their tickets. and
then, no matter who is elected, the in.
terests Of the community will not suffer.
THE Phoebe Minstrels will on Tuesday
evening give performance the proceeds

benefit OF those who have suffered by
the recent cloud-burst. We hope to
see Armory Hall densely packed. A fine
bill will be presented, and the occasion
is one to which all should not fail to give
something in the shape of material aid
Sympathy is all very well, but without
actual help it does not amount to much
