The Reno Gdzetteis informed by Mr..
Richardson, the superintendent of con.
struction Of the new prison, that the
weather of late has retarded the work
considerably. The west and south
walls are completed, and 375 feet of the
east wall. There yet remains of it 125
feet TO be finished, after which the
towers will be put in place aud the
gateway arranged. The gate is To he
connected with the northwest tower.
The woodwork for the towers ia COM
plete, and the blocks and arch stones
for the gateway cut. Mr.. Richardson
proposes to give considerable care TO
the last tower and gateway, and will
complete the north wall towards the
east for fifty feet. This will finish his
contract, and the work will be done by

The gentle Monaghan, says the Gold
Hill Neas, is not behind his Mclean
brother in the pleasant amenities of
civilization. In Virginia City last night,
at about l0:30 o'clock, a Chinaman had
some trouble with one of his country
women, when he drew a knife and
drove 1t through her left arm, at a
point near the shoulder, iniicting a
a serious but not dangerous wound. A
Chinaman, pointed out to officer Simp-
son as the stabber, was arrested, but it
was afterwards explained by some OF
the Chinese that, although his name
was the same, he was not the man
who did the cutting. This will give
the Home Protectors and the new Vir-
ginia City police a chance to do some
thing in the detective line.
A rich strike in gold bearing quartz,
says the Virginia Enterprise, has just
been made in the old Peytona mine on
Cedar Hill, a short distance north oil
this city. The place where the strike
has been made is near the lone rock
that stands on the eastern lace of the
hill. The quartz found is literally
spangled with gold, and would assay
two or three thousand dollars If it
were thought worth while to assay 1t.
The DRIFT has followed the rich streak
about Is feet, and in n place it il
four and a half feet in width. The
"pocket" will probably turn out a
handsome pile OF money.
Last Tuesday says the Appeal, the
people of Carson valley had a vista.

frosts followed. 1t is believed that the
budding and blown fruit trees have
been nearly III not entirely blighted,
though we have heard several citizens
express the belief that considerable
fruit has escaped destruction.
The Elko Independent says: "There
are now eleven prisoners in the County
Jail. Those In charge have their hands
full on account of some of them who
believe that their mothers want to see
them, and who are very anxious ia
take a walk. Besides this number,
two men were turned loose this week,
having served their sentences out" :

NET PROCEEDS.

The bonanza kings are monarchs
from the boys, as 1t were. They pro-
pose to rule the State in tsue imperial
style. Monarchs pay no taxes; neith-
er do the bonanza kings. They de-
clare that they will elect a Legislature
this fall that will repeal the law lax
ing the net products Of the mines.
Nor this alone. They threaten to elect
the next Supreme Judge. Their can
didate is, therefore, u Rising man.
We extract the above from the Car
son Appeal. Its geographical sneer
is discourteous. and its insinuation
against Judge Rising is, we believe, I'M
founded. That these bonanzaites have
through a combination Of judgment
and good fortune secured immense
wealth constitutes no reason that they
should not be protected by the laws in
the enjoyment of every incident Of that
wealth. and if by an appeal to The
courts they can establish the present
law taxing net proceeds of mines to
be unconstitutional, why, in Heavens
name, let them do so. Their refusal to
pay taxes, pending litigating, is caus-
ing our State treasury some temporary
embarrassment: but if the law as it
exists a not be enforced, it is much
better for the State that it should be so
determined before the converting of the
Legislature; and our word for it, that
body will find some means to make
the vast wealth extracted from the
body of the State contribute its quota
to the support of the State. The talk
Of the bonanza kings electing a Legis-
to repeal the present law is idle;
united on this question.

THE CONGRESSIONAL CONVEN-
TTON


For this the XVIIth district OF Ohio,
met at Alliance on Tuesday last and was
very largely and fully attended. The
proceedings will be found published in
this paper. The convention passed off
harmoniously and with the best Of fleeing
and all were well satisfied with the result.
Although it took three ballots to nomi-
nate DoCToR LAMBoRN for Congress it was
pretty evident from the first the Doctor
would be the nominee. He was the de-
cided, almost unanimous choice of Stark
county and it was generally conceded
our county was entitled to the candidate.
DoCToR LAMBoRN, as most of our rea-
ders know resides at Alliance. Many
years ago he abandoned the practice and
has been a successful real estate operator.
AS man of ability and force Of character
he has.few superiors anywhere. We sim
cerely hope for the election of Doctor
Lamborn and shall labor assiduously to
that end, confident he would make true
and worthy Representative and sustain
President Tilden in his efforts to restore
honest Government to this oppressed
land. We fondly hope the voters Of this
congressional district will favor and en-
dorse the Reform movement by electing
Doctor LAMBoRN.
Mr.. METZ our nominee for Presidential
Elector is one of the well proportioned,
full sized, solid men of Mahoning.county.
He is sound and reliable and if elected
will assuredly cast his vote for TILDEN
and HENDRICKS.
Both the great political parties in this
district and in this county have made
their nominations and it lis incumbent
upon every citizen to choose between.
Those who sincerely and earnestly favor
Reform and desire a return to economy
in the administration of our public aE-
fair will act and vote with the Democra-
oy. All this is absolutly necessary in
order to revive business prosperity and
restore better times.

RADICAL EXTRA TAGANCE.

From the foundation of the Govern
ment to 1860, period of Il years, only
S2S, 64O,l7030 was expended for public
buildings. Since 1860, during sixteen
years Of Republican rule, the sum of
S4l 1853, 1869 has been squandered. This
amount has been spent at time when
the nation was suffering from immense
and exhaustive efforts to meet ordinary
expenses and pay the interest on our
enormous bonded debt. No excuse can
be given for the indulgence of mania
for building at such time. 1t was
great piece of madness as it would be for
bankrupt to undertake to put up costly
residence. On that record alone the peo-
pie are justified in demanding change
of Administration.

Governor Tilden says in his letter of ac-
ceptance: Uncertainty is the prolific
parent of mischiefs in all business."-
Great uncertainty exists in this country
at the present time. The earnings of the
people are exhausted in supplying ex-
travagant public expenditures. The
mismanagement of the currency has rem
dered all values uncertain. Faithless-
ness and corruption have destroyed our
credit abroad. No one can wonder that
the trade of the country langujshes,
and that commercial confidence is want
ing. Nor can there be a change for the
better while the causes remain.

Cincinnati, August 25.-James Muir.
phey, aged nineteen, was hanged at
Dayton O, to day, for the murder of
William Dawson in that city, in August,
1875. A special despatch to the Times
says, in the first attempt at his execution
the rope broke and he fell to the floor of
the scafold. twas at first thought his
neck was broken, but it proved otherwise
and in three minutes the prisoner was
second time placed upon the death trap.
AT this point he made death grip on
Deputy Sheriff Freeman, and it required
several men to free his hold. This time
the rope was doubled, and in an instant
he was dangling in the air and making
desperate struggle for life, but after
few contortions his limbs settled and his
struggles ceased. This forenoon, a few
hours before the execution, in the pre-
sence of his attorney and some others, he
made full confession of his guilt.

RICHMOND, Va, August "a, 1876
Governor G. c. Walker was nominated
to day as the conservative candidate for
Congress, in this, the Third Congress
sional district The nomination was
made by full convention and by accla-
nation, which is a thorough Endorsement
of Walkers course and marked indi-
cation of the ex Governors continued
popularity.
In speech accepting the nomination
he said that the Confederate House" as
the republicans were in the habit of desig-
mating the House ofRepresentatives, had
saved the country $4,000, 900 in the an
nual appropriations, and that despite the
cry of radical politicians. Give US
thieves before Confederate brigadiers,"
seems to be the radical requirement;
the people would approve of the reform
that had been accomplished, and indorse
it by the election ofTilden and Hendricks
and an increased majority in the lower
branch of the national Legislature.
walker nomlnauon creates good
deal of enthusiasm here, and some of his
most ardent admirers anticipate for him
a Cabinet position in the event of the
election ofthe national democratic ticket,
on the ground that he will be the leastob
jectionable of any Southern politician,
combining, as he does, the daul character
of a Northern man and Southern re-
preventative in this connection.
Judge John A. Meredith, of this city,
who was chairman of the St. Louis Com.
mittee on Resolutions, is spoken of as
prospective Attorney General when Til
den becomes President These, however
are merely political speculations.

Pursuant to notice published in the

several hundred citizens of Lake town
ship and neighborhood of Uuiontown
raised a noble hickory pole IN that will
age on Saturday last in the afternoon.
The pole is l25 feet high and floats a
streamer with Tilden aud Hendricks and
Reform. The Uniontown and Mogadore
Bands furnished an ample supply of ex-
cellent music.
After the pole was erect and all righi,
Esquire George Frank was called on to
preside. Order was soon obtained and
the chairman introduced John 7. Hayes
Esq, of Canton, who addressed the audi
ance for near an hour in his usual forci-
BILE and acceptable style.
Major Frank Baird followed in a
lengthy and able speech. which was well
received by the large crowd of interested
listeners. The best feeling was manifes-
ted for the Reform movement and our
candidates Tilden and Hendricks.

THE Pittsburgh Dispatch (Rep.) is
afraid that Foney, by pleading the cause
of Hayes will drive all the honest Re-
publicans over to Tilden, and reminds
the editor of the Philadelphia Press that
he has $4,000 in his pockets that ought
to be elsewhere. If the Dispatch will
only look around it will find Forney is a
small sinner. There is Babcock, Boss
Morton, Chandler, Robson,
Delano and hundreds of others, who d.
vide their time between inventing lies
about Tilden and Hendricks, and sound
ing the praise of Hayes.
