Hope IT'S TRUE.-In our last we
mentioned that there was some talk
of cutting down the force employed
in the Carson Mint. We gave it as
rumor. 1t seems the Carson Ap-
peal don't like to entertain such a
thought, and gets off a firstly, sec
ondly and thirdly thusly:
"Firstly-Nobody has been dis
charged from the Mint, but several
persons have been suspended temp
orarily. Secondly-The Mint will
not be closed but will be kept very
busy for good while to come max
ing small coins. Thirdly-The Car
son Mint Superintendent is author
lied to buy all the bullion needed to
run that concern
All of which we are very glad to
hear. If the appeal will forgive us
this time will promise never to edo
so some more.'

TOLL ROADS.

The subject of toll roads was
discussed at the County Seat yes
terday. The Virginia City Coal
Mining Company have expended
many thousands of dollars in the
development of their mine, and are
about erecting still more powerful
machinery, but before doing so,
wished to know how they are to
get their coal to market when taken
from the mine. As matters stand
now, to conduct it to Virginia City,
their teams would have to pass
over three toll roads, which en-
hances the price of coal greatly.
Representatives of the Company
appeared before the Board of
County Commissioners yesterday
at Dayton, and made complaint
that the toll-road in Ell Dorado
Canyon was not in condition for
them to transport heavy loads, not
withstanding toll was exacted. On
this showing the Hon. Board adj
journed, took a rockaway team,
and in company with the repre-
sentatives of the mine and the
Sc +l,a Ill ,Ao1 1,A,-a
the new grade. The owner has ex-
pended considerable money and
great deal of time and labor on the
road, but it lacks in many particu-
lars. The turns in nearly every
instance will not permit of the
driving of six-mule team with a
back action; the grade is very
good, but it is claimed that the old
road had a more even grade. Be
fore the road will be passable for
other than light vehicles, there
must be vast deal of work done,
and it is claimed by the Coal Com
pany that the present proprietor is
unable to complete the work, will
not dispose of the same at a reason
able figure, and insists on the col
lection of toll. They also claim
that the old road has been aban-
doned, and wish the Commissioners
to declare it county road. They
agree to put it in good condition
for heavy vehicles and charge no
toll. As the old road runs parallel
to the toll road, of course this would
take all the travel from it, hence
the Commissioners hesitate grant
ing their request. They will re-
port at their next regular meeting
There can be but one side to the
question: If the present propri-
etor of the road cannot or will not
put his road in condition to accom-
modate the travelling public, he
should not be allowed to collect
toll. Again: the interests of Lyon
county are greatly at stake in the
development of these mines situat-
ed in Ell Dorado Canyon, and those
who are expending large sums of
money should be encouraged, es-
pecially when they ask only what
is their due, hence we think it but
right that they should have the
privilege of repairing the old road,
and that it should be declared a
public highway.

~ We are going to tell this story
about Texan bedbug for the special
benefit of an acquaintance who visited
the State Fair at Sacramento, last week,
and says that during his stay there the
nights We're rendered hideous to him
by the attacks of this rayenous vermin.
An Austin, Texas, merchant who was
out in the country buying grain, stopp-
ed at night at dilapidated farm house.
After fierce contest with the bugs and
mosquitoes. he hadsfaIlen asleep. He
slept about an hour when he was rudely
awakened. The old man was standing
over him with cooked revolver, and
one of the farmers stalwart sons had
him by the heel and was in the act of
jerking him out of bed, while the hired
man was tossing the pillows around
with a three-tined pitchfork.
"What have I done?' he hoarsely
asked.
keep cool, stranger," replied the
farmer, ''some of the boys'thought they
heard Dennison bedbug chawing up
tie shuck mattress, but guess it must
have been wolves out in the timber they
heard you can go to sleep again."

Snohomish Correspondence.

Nov. 5, 1875.
Our little sociable last night was large
ly attended. The Kindness of Capt.
True in stopping anywhere on the river
for passengers, enabled our neighbors
on the lower river, to turn out. Our
school room was full, ane all seemed to
enjoy themselves. Mr. H. Packwood
kindly volunteered to help out the mus
ic. So did Mr.. G. L. jackson, of the
new firm of Packard & jackson, while
Mr.. 7. Mathews, who never was known
to fail. was on hand, and never showed
signs of fatigue during the whole even
ing. His fingers must be steel. These
little informal parties are really more
enjoyable, than set balls. They will be
the feature of our winter entertainments.
Every body is invited to participate.
The late rain storm, has again raised
the river bank full. Many logs, and
vast accumulations of drift wood. por-
tions of heavy jambs. and numerous IA
miliar snags and sawyers have gone out
to sea, on the flood. We can spare
great many now. without improving riv-
er navigation, to any great extent. Tenn
pcrary repairs have been made to The
sheer boom below, so that most Of the
logs went into the permanent boom
above the cutoff.
The fall term of the Dist. school will
commence next Wednesday, under the
superintendence of Mr.. Lochrie, a gen.
tleman who has lately como among us
well recommended. The attendance
will be large, as the new school room
affords superior accommodations to
what has been heretofore provided for
the scholars. The school ground is ell
evated and drv, and away from the ba0
influence of hotels and saloons. 1t is
hoped that parents v III take greater in
terest now than formerly, and by drop
ping in occasionally, encourage by their
presence both teacher and pupils. That
is the only way to secure good public
schools.
