SOME SUGGESTIONS


A the days pass and the shock OF the
recent disaster 10 succeeded by a ealnier
look over the whole Geld. 1t Is seen that
while In direct results the losses Of the
IRE have been little magniaed by pub
lishsd reports. the indirect disasters
have been unduly exaggerated. The
Losses Of household furniture. clothing.
stocks Of goods. ETC.. have been very
large. A great many houses have been
destroyed and the business OF a portion
Of the city has been Frustrated. hui
these arc losses from which the people
will recover. The eitiz.ns Of the Pacific
Coast arc endowed with amazing cou
ace and vested with indomitable energy.
Especially is this tho case with the
people Of Nevada. than whom no
drawer. mort generous people exists I'M
der the san. The citizens Of Western
Nevada have an abiding faith in
the storshousss Of treasure beneath
thsir fest. They know them to be vast.
and believe them insxhaustiblc. They
have . fsrvsnt admiration for every
thing psrtaining TO the city wherein the
wealth Of the world first sees tho light.
and an undoubting faith in its future.
A year viii not slapso ere tho places

eo.fagration will DO; rebuilt, IN a better
and more substantial method than ever

tions Of tho Eaisrpriss OF yesterday

burned locality. and endorse its prop
osition Of this morning that fire

none bot brick and stone build

pass until the wealth Of the bonanza
will b again pouring out into
the mills Of the Pacific Mill and Mining
Company. It Is our firm opinion tina,

and employment will be abundant. The
insurance companies promise prompt
