GOV. HAYES A MEMBER OF THE
AMERICAN ALLIANCE.

A few days ago we published a tele-
graphic report to the effect that Gov
ernor Hayes, through his private Sec
rotary, had written a letter to the
officers of the American Alliance, a
Know-Nothing order, which has its
headquarters in New York, which in
effect committed him to the principles
Of that organization. On the follow
ing day. however, there came a denial
across the wires in the shape of letter
from Albert Lee, MIR. Hayes private
secretary, dencuncing the charge as a
falsehood and the letter a forgery. In
a spirit Of fairness not characteristic of
our Republican contemporaries when
the talsity OF charges against MFR. TIL
den are proven, we gave the same pub
licity to the denial that we did to the
charge. From the following dispatch,
however, which we received yester-
day, it would appear that the Repub-
lican presidential nominee not only
sympathizes with the principles of the
proscriptive organization but is actu-
ally a member of it. IF this be true,
Mr.. Hayes is not only guilty of the in
dorsement of a policy which is in d.
rect violation Of the principles of our
Federal Constitution and which clearly
demonstrates his unfitness for the
highest office within the gift of the
American people, but having written
a letter denying his connection or atfl-
iation with the above named order,
he stands convicted of deliberate false
hood. Here Is the dispatch:
NEW YORK, Oct. 9.
The World this morning says: The
Cincinnati Enquirer will publish to-
morrow the following letter:
COLUMBUS, OHIO, Sept. 29.
j. s. Tyler, Chief Secretary of the
American Alliance, New York-Dear
Sir: Your favor is just received with
a certificate of membership and con
stitution of the American Alliance.
Be pleased to accept my thanks for
your high appreciation OF myself,
trusting that | may prove worthy of
the confidence reposed in me.
[Signed1 r. b. HAYES"
The Enquirer is n of the most
prominent and responsible journals in
the United States, and it is very i'm
probable that its conductors would
publish a letter like the above until
they had sufficient evidence to prove
its authenticity. 1t looks very much
as though MI. Hayes had done that
which history informs us III first
President could not do-namely: told
a whopper.

THE Eureka SENTINEL mentions the
fact that mot a Democratic cam paign
document, not a speaker nor even a
poster proclaiming the State ticket, has
yet appeared in Eastern Nevada 1t
suggests that the time has arrived
when vigorous workimust be done, and
we direct the State Contra Commit
tees particular attention to Eastern
Nevada Virginia Chronicle.
1t would b we'll enough also to di-
rect their attention to the fact that two
candidates for Presidential Electors,
Messrs. Hagerman and B%lennerhas-
sett, are canvassing the Eastern por-
ton Of the State without their appoint
menis being announced by the State
Central Committee. They arrived
here on Sunday nights train and no
one knew of their coming until they
made their appearance on the streets
yesterday morning. They intended
to have spoken here last night, but no
notice having been given of the meet
ing, and there being no SENTINEL is
sued Monday mornings, they were
obliged TO postpone the speaking an
til to night. thereby rendering it i'm
possible for them to fill their appoint
ment at Hamilton, as it would interfere
with arrangements they have made for
other places. Such cavalier treatment
of two gentlemen who are doing yeo-
mans service for the cause is mex
cusable, not to say indecent, and we
hope the Executive Committee will
henceforth pay a little more attention
to their duties. Even Colonel Ellis
appointments are only published in
one newspaper in the State. If econ
omy is the object, send along a list of
appointments of all the Democratic
speakers in the State and we will give
them the benefit of our circulation
gratis.

THERE'S MONEY In IT.-The Eber-
hard IL Aurora Company's mill, dur
ing its last run of thirty-six days,
turned out bullion amounting to $780,
600. We presume that considerably
more than one-half of this amount is
clear profit. During this run there
were 200 tons of the lowest grade ore
put through the mill. Three years
ago the Eberhardt u Aurora Company,
in London, thought seriously of aban-
doning this property, and probably
would have done so hut for the energy
and perseverance OF Captain Frank
Drake, the present superintendent, who

ScRIMMAGE.-From a gentleman Just
in from Ward, we learn that a little I'M
pleasantness occurred last Tuesday
evening between 'Shoo Fly" and a
resident of that place. 1t appears that
some unpleasant words occurred be-
tween the parties, and "Shoo Fly'' be-
ing d%ispleased thereat, rushed to her
room and got a pistol, and, returning,
presented it cooked at the mar with
whom she had words, who grabbed
the pistol and took it away from her.
At this juncture outsiders interfered
and stopped further trouble.
WARD. A correspondent writing
from Ward says: The Martin White
Company's mill is being erected AS
speedily as possible. and their Pay
master mine is the largest yer seer in
Nye, Lander, Lincoln, or White Pine
counties. Both OF the furnaces of the
company are running steadily and
making lots Of high-grade bullion.

AN editor who wrote an amusing
sketch of the manner in which a wo-
man reads a newspaper omitted one
important particular. 1t is a remarka-
BILE fact that if an item happens to have
been clipped out of a paper, the wo-
man loses all interest in everything
else that is in that paper, and concen-
trates her attention on the item that
isn't there. She will exhaust herself
in efforts to guess what could have oc-
cupied that empty space. Then she
will wonder who cut it out and why it
was cut out, and ten to one its absence
will ~epgender some horrible suspicion
concerning her husband. Finally, she
will throw down the sheet with the de-
claration that she can't take any inter
est in a newspaper when the only
thing she wanted to read has been cut
out.

The Horses Foot.

Most Of the horse shoers of the coun-
try prepare the foot, fit the shoe, and Sc
cure il to the hoOf in the same manner
that a wood butcher fits a shoe to an old
wood or OK sled The mechanism Of a
horses hoof is one Of the most wonder
full and ingenious structures that can be
fonnd in all the works of the Creator.
Beneath and in the rear of every hoof
there is a frog, which is tough and
elastic pad for preventing injury to the
animal whenever he plants his foot sud-
denly on any hard substances. Large
rolls of cylinders of india-rubber are
placed beneath the railway cars to pre-
vent injury to any part of the car or to
the cargo with which it is loaded. The
frog beneath the foot of horse is de-
signed to subserved a similar purpose.
But the manner in which most horses
are shod. lifts them as it were on short
stills, 40 the frog cannot perform its ap-
propriate functions.
If we look carefully at the yonng
horse when he is trotting or running, it
will be perceived that every foot is
brought down TO the ground in such r
manner that the frog receives the pow
erful blow. By this means all injury to
the animal ia avoided. Science teaches
us to permit the frog to develop and
point downward. But most blacksmiths
seem TO think that the all.wise Creator
made a mistake when He formed the
hoof of the horse. Hence they fall at
the frog with red hot burning irons, with
edge tools, and with any other appliance
that will enable them to remove this ex-
traneous excrescence. Illustrious min
nies! Why not shave away all the
rough. Gallons, adipose tissues beneath
their heels, and allow the bare bones to
rest on an iron plate inside of their own
boots and shoes? No frog, no foot; no
foot, no horse.

motive mental power which forces some
politicians 10 extremes
In a charter election held in western
town the other day enthusiasm ran high
and both pafties made a lively effort TO
get ont fall party vote. About an
hour before the polls closed it was dis
covered that the leading candidate on
one ticket was one vote ahead, with no
prospect that he could secure another
vote. The opposition polled it's full
strength, but suddenly remem bered that
a faithful member was on a bed of sick
ness. A carriage was driven 10 his
house, and the sick mans wife met the
committee at the door.

Telegraph, while out pickerel fishing re-
Gently, had his finger severely bitten bv
large pickerel while attempting to take
out the hook. Mr.. Freas saws: We hear
great deal said of pickerel fishing here
and there, where there ard strong attrac-
tions 10 sportsmen. sc. Now we know
something ahout pickerel fishing. and
what we have TO say abont it is, that no
genuine sportsman will have anything to
do with it. We would rather fish for
spring suckers in a headrace of mill, if
enjoyment ia the objective point. When
pickerel are drawn TO your boat and are
hoisted in with three -pronged hook
large enough to anchor batreau, there
is about "a much sport in it as there
would be in foot or foot and n half of
green corn-stock. But to such as do fan
cy this lifeless sort of fishing, we ad wise
them, before attempting TO take ont the
hook, to break the neck of the fish by
bending it foreward, otherwise they will
almost certainly be bitten. Sometimes
large pickerel has been known to bite
through the finger.

Many are aware, from their own OBJ
servation, how familiar horses become
with particular roads and localities, so
that, If left TO their own choice, they
will take to the road TO which they are
best accustomed, or which leads to a well
furnished stall, in preference to another:
and it is also easy to note that they often
proceed with mnch more apparent alacri
ty in getting home than when going
away from home. But The memory of
the horSe is more tenacious than il COM
monty supposed. A gentleman having
on one occasion travelled along a certain
road, at a considerable distance from
home, turned of to pay a visit to a
friend, at whose hospitable board his
horse found rest and refreshment, as
we'll az himself. Riding along the same
road abou, n year after, he wished to see
il the horse retained any RECOLLECTION of
the place and occurrence, and when he
came near where the road to his friend =
house branched of from the main road
he let the reins fall loosely on the horses
neck. Presently the horse pricked up
his earF, quickened his pace, and on
coming to the roadside unhesitatingly
turned into it, instead of going straight
on.-[ California Farmer,
