The AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIREc-
TORY is an epitome of newspaper his
tory. 1t is also regarded as an official
register of circulation. This feature
requires the closest scrutiny to prevent
it from leading to abuses. The plan
adopted by the publishers of the DI.
RECroRY to secure correct and trust.
worthy reports, Is rigid in its require
ments and adhered to impartially.
Successful publishers, who have some
thing TO gain by q comparison, are
generally prompt, not only to send re-
ports in conformity, but give Messrs.
George P. Rowell & Co. such informa-
ton as enables them to weed out un-
substantiated statements of pretend
ers In journalism. The popularity of
the book, and the general confidence
in it's accuracy and good faith are at
tested by the immense body of adver.
tisements it receives.

4 REVENUE DETECTIVE. - Capt.
W. A. Elias, Special Revenue Dctec-
tive, executed Il .coup de maitre' at
Virginia City yesterday, carrying
CONSERVATION among the ranks Of the
various cigar and liquor dealers Of
that place. Five parties have been
arrested for violation Of the revenue
laws and were to have hearing be-
fore the u. S. Commissioner yester-
day. One of the offences is the hav-
ing of empty cigar boxes in posses
sion the stamps of which have not
been properly obliterated. The fine
imposed for this breach of faith with
the revenue department is $50 and
three months Imprisonment for each
package so found in possession of the
dealer. One man had so unlawful
packages-subjecting him under the
law, strictly enforced, to fine OF
$1,000 and Imprisonment for about
Is years. The attempted avoidance
of the regulations on cigars are chiefly
confined to Chinese dealers, who it is
sand, have a way of fixing up and
using the old stamps in their manu-
flctories in Sacramento and San
Francisco. For violation of the reg
ulations by liquor dealers the penalty
is no less than $4,000 and three years
for each offence. Dealers may I'M
willingly subject themselves to arrest
and fine by not knowing the revenue
department requires the complete
destruction of stamps, when once
used, beyond the possibility of their
being used IA second time. Our deal
ers will take a note of this fact and
act accordingly.

The mules are still pursuing
their fienlish calling. A little son
of Mr.. Thompson at Winnemucca
is the last victim, having had his
breast bone kicked in bv a mule.
OF course he's dead. Who ever
knew mule to kick anybody that
didn't die? The thought Of death
is not so gloomy, bnt just think of
a human life being kicked into
eternity by the hind shoes of a
cross between n Spanish mare and
a ,Jassax.

Judge r. r. Parkinson, editor of
the Carson "Tribune," in passing
through Silver ON Friday called at
the TIMES office few minutes, He
has quite recovered from his recent
indisposition, and is as hale and
hearty as we have ever seen him
Notwithstanding he drew upon our
sympathies when getting out of his
carriage. He was accompanied by
one of Carson's many handsome young
ladies, whose remarkable likeness to
the Judge was sufficient excuse for
his riding out with such young COM
pany.

U. S. MARsHALsHIP.- The sue
cessor of marshal Lamon is ex-
Senator Clapp, of Lincoln county.
The new Marshal is a man of intel
ligence and recognized ability, and
will greatly disappoint his friends
if he does not give better satisfac-
ton than the gentleman who has
just retired to private life. The
duties of the U. S. Marshal's Office
are many and responsible, and
should bring to their performance
a man who is not only competent,
but one who can raise above the
ordinary prejudices of life to fair
ness and impartiality in his official
connections with the people. We
believe Mr.. .Clapp will give salts.
faction to the entire State. If he
does he will be an improvement
upon the late decapitated.

New PAPER AT CARsoN.-And
now a newspaper is to be started at
the Capital City. As we hear it,
the Daily Evening Herald" is to
make its debut in Carson a week
from tomorrow, under auspices
considered sufficient to insure its
financial success. With the "Tri-
bune" and appeal" and this new
acquisition, we would suppose that
our Capital friends would be amply
provided with local newspapers,
and we can hardly believe that with
all its natural advantages and su-
perior intelligence of the people,
Carson can sufficiently support
three daily newspapers. Virginia
City, with twice the business and
fourteen times the available capital,
supports two first-class newspapers
an evening and morning paper
but we very much doubt if third
paper, coming in to compete with
the Enterprise" and Chronicle. "
could be supported. 1t might live
for a time, but unless there should
be placed ga power behind the
throne" of its expenses, it would
soon wither, as did the " Indepen-
dent" We are glad to note the
enterprise which puts three papers
in Carson, but--well we shall see
how it turns out.

Carson Mint.-We have good au.
thority for stating that, after the en-
largement of the meter and refiners
department of the U. s. Mint, at
Carson, that night and day force
will be put on in the coiners' de-
partment to meet the demands tor
small coin and the working up Of
the immense purchase of bullion
from the Comstock. The removal
of w. Hy Doane, and the appoint
ment of Mr.. Levi Daigue in his
stead is surprise to every one who
is not on the inside" Mr.. Doane
is, to our knowledge, very COM
petent and courteous gentleman, and
we are entirely unacquainted with
the combination of circumstances
which has accomplished the change,
but suppose it is one of those mys-
terious things which no fellow can
find out" Mr.. Levi Daigue, his
successor, is well known to our peo-
pie here as mill man, quartz ope-
rator, and staunch Republican OF
Lyon county. While we must re-
greet the i'll fortune of Mr.. Doane,
Gfill fortune it ISL we congratulate
our old citizen upon his succession
to Presidential favor, and believe he
will give entire satisfaction to the ell
ements which have placed him in
position. The visit of DR.. Under
man to the mint, and his favorable
notice thereof, puts the executive
ability OF the institution in light
which reflects credit upon Superin-
tendent Crawford and his manage
ment of the concern, and goes in
part reward of that gentleman's un
firing efforts TO faithfully fulfil the
duties of his responsible position.
We believe no other immediate
changes are anticipated.
