THAT ELEGANT PRODUCTION

EDITOR SENTINEL: Your short edl-
torial in Sundays issue. directing at
tention to the elegance of the pro-
duction" of "Dominie," led me to
read that article critically. ] regret to
say, it will not stand severe criticism
either grammalically, or as a compost
ton in pure compendious" English.
In the first sentence, the word "om
~nipotent " should not have been used.
There are very few persons, indeed,
who think the schoolmaster is pos
sessed of omnipotence, ven in educa-
tional matters. The second sentence
reads thus: cit is too oflen the haiti
of parents to imagine that in sending
their children to The public school, and
in providing them with such books
and other helps to- learning as may he
required, they have fulfilled their duty
to their little ones.' The sentence
would have been more "c0inpendi-
Gus" If il had simply said: Parents
seem 10 imagine that in sending their
children to the public school and pro-
viding them with books and other aids
in learning they have completely full
| filed their duties" A little further
| along i'm the letter Dominic" makes
the parents say: "Our taxes are al
most unprecedentedly heavy" AMI
then he suddenly drops from the plu-
| raj to the singular number witlou;
any just reason. AT another point he
says: "One hour in the quiet of home
and-when it is possihle-aided and
advised by the parent, will ena-
ble a child to acquire a more
intimate knowledge of his book
| than there in the unavoidable turmoil
of the schoolroom." From the ron
| struction of this sentence, it will he
seer that tone hour IL to be aided
and advised by the parents. The
writer, no doubt, intended to say that
one hours patient study, encouraged
| by the parents, was of immense value;
but he did not say it. The wor.
"there" l italicize, seems 10 have tum.
bled in at random.
Toward the close, vour correspon.
dent uses the words 'explaining, illus
trating and commenting upon" Elk
PLANTATION and illustration Of the sub
ject would have been sufficient; EEK
planning upon" and ''illustratInp
upon" a subject, is not correct Ian
guage.
"Giye our little ones a chance" ht
SAYS. A chance at what? l inquire
and then he adds "their interest IL
their studies Wouid increase" 1t he
Lad said "will," the sentence would
have been correct.
The letter has some excellent advice
in 1t, and contains several we'll writer
sentences; but. as a model to be pointee
to by your editorial finger, it need
many improvements.

4 ODE LEGISLATURES.

The last Nevada Legislature was
characterized by many as a rough as
semblage. There was not much foun-
dation for the unfavorable impression
which went out. In reality it was a
good Legislature, the best the State
ever had, and when its work IN to
be understood the people will SO hold.
There we're seven or eight leading gen.
eral measures of a reformatory nature
enacted which will meet with almost
universal approval as soon as their
provisions are fully understood. But
we did not start out to write of our
own Legislature. Illinois is an en-
lightened, christianized part of the
world, and has passed almost wholly
into the hands of the Dolly Vardens.
The Legislature of that State was re-
Gently in session, and on it's adjourn
ment the Chicago Times gave it the
following salute: 1t was an assembly
composed in the greater part OF in
grained demagogues, small profession
al politicians, and political dead beats,
vociferons ignoramuses, bummers,
shuulder-hitters, blackguards and row.
dies. 1t represented the character OF
those worst classes of society through
out; its doings were mostly inspired
by ignorance or sinister purposes, and
guided by impulses of jealousy, envy,
ili-wili, and selfish and morbid ambi-
tion."

DELxoxr WANTS A RAILROAD.

The Belmont Courier, In the course
of an article about the Eureka and
Palisade Railroad, has the following:
Pending the consideration of the
Ex1heka aud Palisade Railroad Com
pd3y, as 10 the further extension OF the
roAd.A considerable amount Of specu-
iation has been INDUCED in in this Sec
ton as to the direction the company
would build the road from Alpha. An
impression prevailed here that the
company had favorably thought of
turning the road from Alpha in this
direction, for the distance OF fifty or
sixty miles, over, as we understand, a
level country. By running the o
TO a point som where between Austin
and Eureka, the trade of the latter
would be secured. and in addition
that of Austin, Belmont, Tybo, Jeffer-
son, Spanish Belt, and q large scope OF
country surrounding. II the Austin
and Battle Mountain road is not to be
built, whether the Eureka and Palisade
Railroad is to be continued OH to
Eureka or not, a diverging road from
Alpha in this direction would unques-
tionably accommodate a large and
very promising section Of country, and
in q short time would become a profit
able investment to the OF the
railroad. 1t is no idle talk to recon-
mend the construction of q railroad
from some point by which this rapidly
growing mineral section Of Nevada
a be placed in communication with
the Central Pacific. The great distance
has retarded operations very seriously,
owing to the great cost OF freight and
passage to and from the Central Pa
cific Railroad. A railroad through
Austin or from Alpha, or both, will
sooner or later, accommodate this II
try. Our prediction may not be real
lied this or next year; but come 1t
must. Railroads have everywhere
made business through the country
which they pass, and this VIII be
found to be no exception to the general
rule.
or course, we don't intend to say
that Belmont does not need a railroad,
and that badly. We believe every
mining camp in the State of any i'm
portance needs railroad facilities. The
country that will not support a rail
road is not worth living in. But we
copied the above to make a correction
or two with reference to our own road.
The idea that the managers of the Eu-
reka and Palisade Railroad ever
dreamed Of leaving this place out in
the cold by branching off with their
road in the direction of Smoky Valley,
is simply absurd. The road is being
built exclusively for Eureka business.
There would DO no pressing demand
but for Eureka's daily yield Of seventy
I'VE tons of bullion. This makes the
building of the road to this point a
certainty. No base metal camp of the
magnitude of this can be successfully
and probably handled without the
aid OF a railroad. As much as we
would like to see Belmont connected
by rail with the rest of the outside
world, we cannot help saying that, in
our opinion, it will be q great while be-
fore SO desirable ali end is achieved.
Belmont may as we'll make up her
mind, to do all of her business with
Eureka direct from and after October
next.
