The Carson Tribune man thus de-
scribes Reno: This town is growing in
beauty and doubtless will in the course
Of few years come up to the present
status OF Carson. No town that contains
a dozen of such energetic citizens can
possibly 90 entirely down, but we are
compelled to state that in Reno there are
some tip-top, go-ahead men. The whole
of the inhabitants are blowers, regular
out-and-out blowers, but take from them
o few that we could mention, and the
town would be dead, dead, dead. North
west of the depot beautiful residences
have been built and embryo orchards
and gardens appear on every hand.

their claims In earnest, instead OF trying
to get up an excitement and sell ou

OF the owners OF mines in our new dist
riot, and commeudable one too, for il
followed with tho energy and industry
with which they have started in, they
will prove aud have one of the most per.
manent and prosperous districts, By
