f., Elko County aud its mines, in nc
scor,lnnce with lruo merit, nro attracting,
at this limo, great dcnl of attention
from tho press and public OF both this
State aud California. Our own people
have long been satisfied that our
hills were. rich in NIL tho precious me-
tails, md hayo been striving hard to
make those from abroad view us in the
same light. The progress III that iii
rection Inns been rather slow, but sure,
and now, since considerable money has
been spent in mining ventures within
tho confines OF the County, our mines
nre developing equal to those of any
of our neighbors, which fact hos finally
begun TO draw the. close attention and
scrutiny Desired for The last seven or
eight years: Wherever there are good
mines, there will capital and mining
mon concentrate, and no section OF tho
State bids faircr to result in such con-
centration than does Ellso County,
referring to ono of our local camps
the Eureka Sentinel, of tho 23rd, instant,
says:

The Mos. Elegant Car Ever Built.

Brief mention was made in THE
LEADER of the passage through here on
Wednesday of an elegant special car. 1t
carried Ex4GoY. Latham, Of Caiifor-
mia, and Capt. Bradbury, Of San Fran-
cisco, president of the Occidental a.
Oriental Steamship Co., with their
families and servants. This i its first
trip. 1t is named ssPresident,' and
was built by the Pullman Palace Car
Co., expressly for exhibition at the Cen
tennial. 1t is by far the most elegant
and beautiful ever built by this CON-
pany.
The a is sixteen feet long, and is a
twelve-wheeler. The wheels are es-
pecially worthy of notice. The ordin-
airy car wheel is thirty-two inches in
diameter. The wheels of this car are
forty-two inches in diameter, are made
of paper, and have heavy steel tires,
Many advantages are claimed for thess
new wheels over the old style. They
possess more elasticity, have less fric'
ton, and are not so susceptible to de.
pressions in the track as smaller wheel:
are. On a straight stretch of road the
car in rapid motion rolls along a,
smoothly as a carriage over a carpeted
floor. 1t is as easy to write in this car
as on a desk in any Office in town.

Judge Tracy tells a good story of a
one-sided fight between himself and Bill
Rowland The Judge says that he had
q big lot of cord-uood cut and piled up
In different places in the foot hills, and
that he was very certain that Rowland
hauled away considerable Of it, This
he had stated to one or two parties, and
Rowland hearing of it,drove over to the
Judges place one day last spring, an
nouncing, as he sprang from his wagon,
that he had come to whip Tracy. The
latter had no desire to fight, but as Row
land charged upon him he felt bound
to defend himself. His tactics were to
hit and kick Rowland, and at the same
time keep out of his reach. This he did
with success, so that after FIVE or ten
minutes, Rowland had two black eyes,
his nose was bleeding, and his shins
were quite sore. Becoming tired, the
Judge acknowledged himself whipped,
although he had not received a single
blow, and Rowland, satisfied with the
acknowledgment, drove away.

: Coloradofurnishes many tough things,
says the Denver Tribune, and it was
heretofore supposed that thetoughest of
all was the cheek of the average Demo-
cratic orator, but to the delight of fair
and candid Democrats even this mirac-
ulous article is eclipsed. The Colora-
do cow with Texas horns furnishes the
illustration. One got in front of q train
on the D. q II. G.. railway last Satur-
day, when the engine was going at the
rate of twenty-five miles an hour, and
the engineer was unable to stop. So he
threw open the throttle, and let go fol-
that cow in splendid STYLE. When the
pilot struck her there was such a flying
Of heels and horns in the air as never a
bovine furnished before. When she
came down engine No. II had a broken
headlight and a busted eagle. Bossy
lay there on the pilot until the engine
stopped, when she was rolled of. In
stead of being beef, she was the live
lest kind of a Texas c~ritter, that went
OF with kicking heels, not injured, ex-
cepting one small cut on her tail.

Not q day passes that We DON'T hear
at least one story of yilliany perpetrated
on unsuspecting pilgrims, by the black
legs who infest the small way station
called Sidney. 1t has become unsafe
for passengers to get of the cars there,
as a pack of hungry fellows are always
present on the arrival Of trains, and
win swindle II they can or rob outright
iftheir confidence games fail. In any
other western town, even though as
small as Sidney,this sort softhing would
not be tolerated, but it is charged that
the authorities are in leagne with the
cut-throats. This may not be true, but
it is certain that the officials Of that
section of country show an amazing
amount of indifference regarding the
villianies of their wicked fellow citi-
zens. 1sga-9

Gen. Sheridan says: 'tIf the posts on
the Yellowstone had been established
according to my recommendation, there
would have been no Indian war. II
the Indian bureau had turned over TO
the military the control of the agencies
before the troops took the field, Al had
requested, it would not have assumed
the magnitude it did, but it would seem
TO require some disaster like that which
happened 10 Custer before good iadg-
ment and common sense could be exer-
eised in this subject. The operations
against these Indians during the sum-
mel were the same a summer cam
paigns against them generally are, and
not much success can attend them other
than preventing the Indians from ac-
cumulating winter supplies, and the de
moralizing effects that result to the
men, women and children from being
constantly harassed; and when winter
comes they are but ~ill-prepared to pass
oyer it safely.n

The mining u of the Medi-
cine Bow range of mountains have not
yet been developed. About thirty diff
ferent claims have been located within
a radius of twenty miles from the Gen.
tennial mine, but with the exception
of two or three claims, no work has
been done on any other mine besides
the Centennial, though some of the
leads discovered seem to indicate the
existence of rich veins of gold. A Mr..
Walters is the only gentleman who
put up a quartz mill during the summer
in this locality. Colonel Downey, pres.
ident of the Centennial Mining com
pany, informs us that his company have
suspended work temporarily, but will re-
sumo soon and put in n large stamI
mill next spring.
