V. G.. is glad to see that an effort is being
made to extend the corporate limits, so as ia
take in the property of several individuals who
have the benefit OF the corporation with none OF
Its expenses. The idea is an excellent one, and
Mr.. WILLARD
thinks he did good deed in circulating the
petition, as such extension will include quite a
piece OF his land, which is now exempt.
The
PAW PAW RAILROAD COMPANY
has been furnishing some more fun for our
Solons at the State Capital. This time 1t is
petition, asking for an increase of passenger
fare to
TEN CENTS PER MILE.
V. G.. thinks it is bad move on the part of
said company. as the people do not seem in
clined to pay more than the fare now charged.
indeed, he doubts IL they will submit peaceably
TO the proposed increase, as he understands
that an
INDIGNATION MEETING
wa Aeld the other evening denouncng it.
y. g. observes with sorrow, and would call
the attention OF the citizens OF this village to
the fact that the
NUMBER OF SALOONS
is constantly increasing. He would like to
know what has become OF the temperance or
ganization, which undertook the noble work of
DISCRIMINATING these monsters last summer
Why don't the temperance people try to check
this
GROWING EVIL
V. G. has been told that there are places in our
midst where liquor is sold to minors, II is
certainly bad enough for old topers to frequent
such places, but how much worse is it to see
our boys
FOLLOWING IN THEIR FOOTSTEPS?
And especially when those footsteps are lead
ing them on to destruction. Y. G.. would call
upon all order-lovng citizens to take this mat
ter In hand.
V. g. Is Of the opinion that the girls have
received more than til cir share of advlce-that
the boys have been neglected in this respect
Nearly all the girls in this village, who are not
attending school, spend their time probably,
either doing the work at home or engaged in
other pursuits by which they earn an honest
living, while their brothers spend most OF their
time (when the sun shines) standing around
the street corners putting cigars, or If it is too
cold to be outside, sitting around some bar
room stove. V. G. knows of but few cases
where girls spend whole days in idleness, and
he thinks they have been blamed too severely
by most Of our
WRITER'S AND LECTURERS.

Lawton says, that nomination Is too thin. We
supposed they regarded it in that light. Itwould
be regarded different if the Judge should 90

is understood that they had an arrangement OF
that sort not long since. Go on with your pro-

NYE COUNTY ITEMS.

We collate from the Belmont Courier
of last Saturday the following sum-
mary of Nye county news:
MINING TRANSFERABLE San Fran.

Gardner, OF Santa Cruz, CAL, widow of
). w. Gardner, decided unto the ella
Silver Mining Company, Reveille Dis
trict, Nye county, Nevada, all OF her
interest IN and to a series of mines.
now composing the ella Company, for
the sum Of 81 ,666, as appears on record
in the County Recorders office, Nye
county. This amount, as we under
stand the sale, is based on a value of
$1,000 for the whole interest of S. w.
Gardner, deceased, to the ella prop
erty, there being two children under
age, the issue OF the said s. w. and
Virginia T. Gardner. Mrs. Gardner
receives her one.third in coin from the
company, the other two-thirds to be
paid to the heirs, probably through
the regular channel of probate, to a
special administrator.
BELMONT MINE. = From Superin-
tendent George T.. Weber, we learn
that work on the Belmont mine pro-
crosses without interruption. The
main perpendicular shaft is being sunk
AS fast as possible, and is o down a
depth OF AS feet. The large body of
water in the shaft is handled without
difficulty by the powerful machinery
in use. A force of miners are en-
ployed running drifts north from the
shaft at a depth of 430 feet. The north
drift is in 500 feet, and the south a dis
lance of 200 feet. About thirty men
are employed in and about the mine.
The Belmont Company is doing good
work, and if paying bodies of ore are
not found it will not be the fault of the
we'll directed heads in charge.
Ell DoLADo SOUTH MINE.-The Ell
Dorado South Company il pushing
the work of sinking a perpendicular
shaft with undated energy-though
the Bank of California has suspended
payment. The shaft is now down a
depth of 300 feet, three shifts of men
being employed on the work. To
what depth it expects to penetrate
into the bowels of the earth, before
drifting, we are unadvised; but of one
thing we feel assured, that w. f. Leon,
in whose charge the whole work is
placed, will sink down until he reaches
the bonanza, should that be a thousand
feet, or more, as the old Ell Dorado
South was toe rich Oh top to have
nothing below.
AFTER A BoNANZA.-Jacob Gooding
left for Reveille district on Monday
last, with a three months outfit, for a
siege of prospecting for bonanza that
he knows is out there awaiting his de-
velopment.
PosTPoNED.-By order of the Board
of Trustees of the FL Dorado South
Consolidated Mining Company, the
sale of delinquent stock has been post
poned until Thursday, September 30.
ALEX. BEATTY, wife and daughter, re-
turned from California a few days
