NEVADA NEWS.

A book agent named G.. A. Montague
has been swindliug the business men Of
Elko out Of small sums under pretence OF
inserting their names. etc.. in the bust
ness directory.
The Carson Tribune thinks that the
position occupied BY Hanford. the State
Prison expert, as not an enviable one.
Cause. an intimation by Hanford that
those who furnished supplies to the State
Prison were in collision with Hyman.
The Virginia Enterprise OF the 4th
states that smoke was yesterday still to
be seen issuing from the large brick
building of d. Driscoll, destroyed in the
big fire on the Goth of October last-just
one hundred days after the fire. This ia
somewhat remarkable when We take into
consideration the many heavy rain and
snow storms that have occurred since the
fire.
The Austin Reveilie OF the Sd instant
says: This morning James L. johnson.
convicted OF murder in the second de-
gree, for the murder OF Michael Ryan,
was brought up for sentence. Judge
Mckinney sentenced him to imprison-
ment at hard labor in the State Prison
for the term of his natural life. A no.
tice Of appeal to the Supreme Court has
been filed in this case, based, we believe,
on the alleged unconstitutionality Of the
present jury law.
The Lyon County Times of the 81 in
slant says: Yesterday morning miner
by the name OF Larry Cronin was ssri-
ously il not fatally injured by a cage
being lowered upon him while at work.
Cronin was employed in the sinking of
the Dayton shalt, and by some mistake
or carelessness the cage was unexpect-
eddy lowered, crushing him to the ground.
Neither his back nor any of his limbs
were broken, but his lower extremities
from his hips are completely paralyzed.
We find the following sensible and ap.
posite remarks in the Austin Reveille:
The San Francisco grabbers who call
themselves merchants are discussing the
question whether they shall establish a
gold basis and refuse silver coin for the
purchase OF goods. II they refuse to re-.
ceive silver they will add to the Difficult.
ties already existing. by decreasing its
means Of circulation, thus hurting the
business OF their Nevada customers. In.
stead Of restricting the circulation of
silver coin it Is the duty. and should be
the interest, OF San Francisco by every
means in their power to increase IL.
By the following taken from Austin
Reveille it will be seen that the Chinese
have become infected with the mania for
suicide, which at present seems to prevail
all over the country; Sam Sing employs
a. an assistant in the manipulation Of
dirty linen, his cousin, whose name ID
Alb Chung. Chung has got girl in San
Francisco. for whom he is pining, and
having accumulated few dollars, he de.
sired to make visit to the object OF his
affections. This was opposed by his EN-.
ployer and cousin, and Chung became &C
dsspondsnt over the refusal that he
thought there was nothing left to live for
20, procuring some arsenic. he swallowed
. whaekine big dose Of it and laid him.

A SUSPICIOUS PROPAGATION.

Our Telegram states that . Senate
Committee will report bill for the sale
Of timber lands in California. Oregon.
etc. Now We may be mistaken, and we
sincerely hope that we are, but for all
that we would not mind wagering
short bit that there Is the very largest
kind Of q steal contemplated in the pro-
posed legislation. Il is to be remem-
bersd that IN California and Oregon the
timber lands are usually those in which
the metallic wealth Of the coast is found.
When that fact is noted. and coupled
with another. that when the United
States once parts with her title and issues
. patent. that when the lands are so con-
veyed. all that Is In or on them, whether
mines or timber. becomes the property
Of the purchaser. the only conclusion to
be reached Is that the proposed bill for
the sale Of timber lands should be en-.
titled bill to steal and monopolizs the
mineral wealth OF the public domain.
The mining interest and its pioneers,
the sturdy prospectors Of this coast. will
have to be extremely vigilant and active
to prevent swindles Of this character. 1t
has become chronic habit on the part
OF Q large portion Of the Senators and
Representatives from the Eastern States
to look upon this coast as fair game, and
they would regard with but little COM
junction perhaps assist any scheme
which might be very prejudicial to the
miners Of tho Pacific States. II is only
charitable to suppose that such course
is only taken through lack OF knowledge
Of the real merits Of the matter. While
oonceding that. the fact remains the
same, that such IL the tendency Of the
legislation originated by Eastern men,
Under any circumstances the Pacific
Coast mining interest can not be toe
keenly alive to any attempt to jeopardizt
its welfare and should scrutinize closely
and thoroughly any proposed legislation
which has any bearing on the subject
That timber land scheme has such sus
picious look that II would be we'll to ex
anime It in the most searching and rigor
Gus manner. II il is not q stealing affail
then do We sadly misjudge it and it
| promoters.

WANT TO Know Somebody in Con.
gress wants to know what it costs to pur.
chase horses for the army and other gov
ernmental uses and how the money is
expended. This is the sort Of knowledge
the acquisition of which is not favored
by the administration, SO its adherents
in the House object to the inquiry. This
10 very impudent, for the obstacles placed
in the way OF acquiring knowledge con-
corning the proceedings Of the several
departments OF the government, will
only whet the peoples appetite to learn
all about such matters.

UNcoNsrITUrIoNAL.-Asthe Supreme
Court Of California has declared the tax
on mortgages to be unconstitutional, is
there not some reason to conclude that
the tax in this state on like securities
may be obnoxious to the same objection.
We are not sure, but think that the con-
stitutional and statutory provisions in
both states are very similar. If this be
the case, the tax on money secured by
mortgage IN this state stands upon a
very insecure basis.

TRASspARENr.-The telegraph informs
us that great system Of internal impro-
vements is to be reported BY committee
OF the U. 8. Senate. We suppose that
means. that buncombs bid IL to be
made BY the administration to enlist
popular support. II cannot mean any.
thing else. With the country after ex-
psrisnciug nearly three years Of CON-
msrcial disaster, with . crippled mer-
chant marine; with load OF taxation
that causes the property and industrial
resources of the nation to real under the
burden; with psculation and bad faith
everywhere pervading the administra.
ton OF public affairs, il cannot be So
riously proposed for the country to incur
the enormous expenditure and wasteful
prodigality which always accompanies
the prosecution of great public work.
When il is found. by actual and dsar
bought experiences. that the General Gov.
srnment can not build postofios. q
custom house, mint or any other struct.
urs for the use of the government or re-
pair, or build Q ship without paying
four or i've times more than the proper
cost Of the undertaking. there is little
wisdom OF sincerity, in the proposal Ito
commence great system of internal i'm
provemonts.
