FIJI. Goodman, of the q. p. r. r.
Company, has written to parties here,
says the Carson Tribune, informing
them that the company had given or
ders to all conductors to pass from
Reno to Ogden all Mexican Veterans
who possessed the badge lately be-
slowed on them by the Government.
This is proper, and although there are
but few in Nevada to avail them sci yes
of the privilege, the kindness of the
company is none the less appreciated.
Following is "A copy of the letter:

IN the proceedings OF the ami Chinese
meetings recently he'd i'm this town.
All such Talk II The verie-t bosh. To

his soundness upon thai question of
any person in the district, He has re-
GENTLY had the letting OF several con-
tracts for wood %chopping. aud IN every
one he's had inserted II clause render
ing the contract void in case OF the
employment OF Chinese by the con-
tractors.

they will become as familiar and
handy in handling the hose advantage
ously AS the most * experienced tiremen.
