The only thing definite from the
Tilton. Beecher jury IL the announce
ment that they have not yet agreed
upon their verdict. A little after noon
yesterday, as the telegraph states,
Judge Nelson received o communities
ton from thejury, to which he replied;
but nothing concerning the contents OF
the note could be learned. The SUBJ
stance Of an interview between Beecher
and . World reporter is also tale-
eraphed. The reverend gentleman
ave 1t a his opinion that eleven of the
twelve jurymen were for him, and that
he knew long ago that the other fellow
was . contrary sort OF sinner who
would stand out against him to the
bitter end. He also volunteered the
information that Judge Nelson would
keep them cut SIX weeks II they did
mot sooner agree. This, and this alone,
l. The sum and substance Of our ad-
vices from that patient jury. If the
report be true, that Judge Nelson has
determined to keep them out for six
weeks, the final wind-up Of this cele-
brated trial may still be "afar off,"
We hardly credit this statement, how
ever, notwithstanding Il came through
the sinless Bssciser.

we are indeed gratifed to know that
we have at last convinced the aspiring
youth of the Elko Independent that
his county has no earthly right, in a
legal sense. to the Mineral Hill strip of
territory coded by solemn enactment
of the last Legislature to Eureka
county. In reply to an article which
appeared in the SENTINEL last week
on the question of the assumption of
indebtedness in connection with the
changing of county boundaries, he
gracefully throws up the sponge as
follows:
We are free to admit that the in
stances he cites are correct, but also as
sert two known evil acts never made a
right one, and because certain por-
lions of land have been coded without
nav. that is no al why Eureka
should be permitted to rob Elko. We
have never claimed that it was uncon-
st%itutional to so give away territory,
but simply asserted that it was al in
Justice, to which fact we still adhere.
Having admitted that there can be
no question about the constitutionality
of the law, what bushes have you to
annoy your ~unoffending neighbor by
dragging the whole matter before the
courts? 1t is the province of the Su-
preme Court to pass upon the consti-
nationality OF enactments. The injus-
tice of which you complain-in very
lad taste, by the way-will eve be
considered for a single moment by
that tribunal. The Legislature in its
wisdom, by a solid three-fourtbs vote,
has forever settled the question of ex-
pediency and justice, and the sooner
you and your people begin to realize
this important fact the better it will be
for Elko's exchequer. Entertaining the
kindliest feelings for the people of Elko
county, we advise them, in all candor,
to dismiss their n~onsensical suit against
honest neighbor without the ex-
penditure of another dime.

A COUNTY FAIR.-The Independent
sensibly advocates the holding of a
County Fair at Elko this Fall. The
Changers over that way are discussing
the propriety of the undertaking, and
the Independent has strong hopes that
it will be q go. We hope so, too. Eu-
reka has some cabbage and rutabagas,
raised on the Mineral Hill strip, which
she is anxious to show. She wouldn't
think, though, Of competing with Elko
on the subject of beets.

destined to prove Of ~iucalculable bene-

ton Of this State. 1t is we'll known
that an English company, represented
BY Mr.. Taylor, IL preparing to COM

operated as the greatest detriment 10
the successful treatment Of the heavy
base pres Of that locality, and it was
with the view Of overcoming this OBJ
s.acle, II possible, that impelled Mr..
Taylor to seek an interview with Sena-
tor. Jones, and other railroad magnatcs,
during bis visit to San Francisco. He
tells a. that Senator Jones is fully
alive 10 the great Importance of his
railroad EAST from Los Angeles as a
competing line to the Central Pacific.
and expresses q determination to push
IL through with all possible dispatch
to . point where q connection will be
made with the Utah Southern. The
Senator has changed his original plan
Of building the road direct to Pana-
mint, and will now continue it across
the lowor end Of Death Valley, and so
on to the Utah line. This will pass
through or near Groom and other i'm
portaut mining districts southwark,
and It is believed also that 1t will fur
nish . better outlet for Typo and Rev.
ellie than those places To- enjoy. The
managers Of the Utah Southern have
agreed TO hurry along the work of con-
struction on their end OF the line, and
Senator jones seems sanguine that the
whole road will be in full operation
within two years from date. Then,
with the Eureka and Palisade road ex-
tending south and ~intercepting this
southern route, we will be placed in
position to take choice Of lines for the
transaction of all our business, wheth-
Il be with the great commercial centers
Of the East or with the toll. gathering

hail the completion Of Senator Jones'
