large compass, and its purity is at once
noticeable. The Hayden Symphony, the

THE ANTHRACITE COAL TRADE is still at
an almost dead pause, and the anticipation
OF week ago, that there would be to-day a
general resumption OF coal mining in most
OF the districts, is almost entirely dlssipated ,
and suspension now is as likely to continue
month from date as fortnight. Nothing,
however, is known upon the subject OF re-
sumption further than that there are very
rev orders In hand for coal from any of the

Ar1al and use have since shown IL to be. The
peImaneDcy of the bridge depends, he says
entirely upon keeping all its parts in thor

The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1876-01-05
THAT MANDAMUS CASE.

We hope our contemporary under the
new management will not fall into the
errors of its former proprietors and de-
vote its space TO misrepresenting the
SILVER STATE. We have not merited
any such treatment from Frank Wheeler
(Red) the new owner of that paper. 1t
does us an injustice by insinuating that
we misquoted the opinion of the Su-
preme Court in that mandamus case,
in proof of which we give that part of
the opinion which relates to costs, from
the Territorial Enterprise of December
%, 1875, which is as follows:
Tits however insisted on the part of
.relator that Judgment for costs should
be awarded against respondent, While
the circumstances were such as to In
duce reasonable belief on the part of
the relator that respondent intended an
evasion of the performance Of duty
eDjoined upon HIM by the Statute; yet,
from an examination of respondents
return to the writ, we are satisfied that
no evasion OF duty was intended. The
return shows that respondent never re-
celved the letter OF August IA, which
was addressed to him from Virginia by
the counsel for reiator, and therefore
was not aware that counsel intended to
be at Winnemucca tor the purpose of
settling the bill of exceptions.
We are therefore of opinion that the
proceedings should be dismissed without
costs, and 1t is SO ordered. EARL, j.
We concur: HAwLEY, C.J.
BEATTY j."
There the Supreme Court dismisses
the case without costs and that is all
We know of the matter. If the Court
has reversed it's decision the fact has
not been made public here. If the de.
cision was published for deceptive pur-
poses and is not the real order of the
Court, the fault is not ours, and the
county should not pay the costs until
