The Nevada Uen,ocr1!, IF Reno, III an
article Of Mondays issue, takes occasion
to touch upon the morals of this place.
1t says; Last Sunday was a lively iay
in Carson. Sermons were preached at
every church in town. aud n match
game of base ball was played on Tread
ways picnic grounds. For the morals
Of the town We viii say. that while the
attendance in the "hurches was light, the
playground was thickIy settled" Th-n,
With an exclamation OF apparent pity
and c.nsaIc mixed, the article closes
oh Carson, for shame, that tho loud
hurrah. and noisy, boistefous shout Of
base ball game should DO heard from one
end Of the city 10 the other IN the Sab
bath The old saving is-aul vs. be-
heve that il will hold good ia this in
stance That people that live in glass
houses shouldn't throw stones.' We
admit that u game Of base ball on the
Sabbath day is little on: Of place, yet
we think it better TO know that there is
such day. and play base ball. than not
to know it. We have no doubt but there
are peopl. in Reno who never heard of
such day. and never will, if they live
in that place until moss grows on their
noses.
Orr or WoEs.-An over our country
at present can be found large numbers of
men out Of employment and the most of
them out Of money, which places them |
in very pitiful circumstances indeed. |
Some of them are willing to do most |
in order TO get something TO !
eat. We saw one yesterday-and his |
looks portrayed truthfulness in his as /
sertions-who stated that he had come to |
this country some four or five weeks ago,
and had as yet been unable TO get any |
work. He vas entirely without money, !
and almost without clothes. having sold |
them to get money to buy eatables with.
Most Of these luckless fellows are from /
the States, Shere they leave good homes
and employment to seek their fortunes /
10 the far west. We should think they |
could learn from the papers that this
is overrun with lsboring men,
and poor place to be without coin.
