The State Republican Convention
meets at Carson next Thursday; the
State Democratic Convention tomorrow
week at Virginia City. The chief inter-
est in the nominations seems to center
on the Supreme Judgeship and Con.
gressional nominee. For the former
Judge Rising, and the Hon. W. W.
Bishop are mentioned on the Republican
side, with the chances greatly in favor
OF our talented townsman. The Dem.
ocratic nominee is as yet "the dark
horse" For Congress the Republicans
can choose between G. L. DeLong OF
Virginia, Thos. Wren of Eureka, and G.
U. Powning OF the Reno Journal. Pown-
ing is thought by some to be the coming
man on that side of the house, while
Others say DeLong. II he will accept,
can get it. On the Democratic side, we
have Col. A. G. Ellis, W. E. F. Deal,
and Robert E. Lowery. Notwithstand.
ing Col. Ellis former defeat it is thought
by good many be would make suo-
oessful run. His fitness for the position
is conceded by all. The Carson Conven.
ton. on next Thursday. will also be the
occasion of Republican ratification,
which is to be, according to the Carson
papers, quite an imposing affair.

The Beaver Enterprise is In possession
OF some inspired information relative to
the probable railroad connection with
Salt Lake City and Southern California.
1t says:
The Utah Southern will be extended
and may have its terminal point at San
Diego. but no work is likely to be done
on 1t. till after the Presidential election.
The proprietors of the U. p, who also
control the Utah Southern, arc practical
men and want to see some settled finan.
cial government policy before making 80
important move. In word. they are
waiting to see Samuel ]. Tilden at the
mead OF the government, and then they
Will go ahead and build. Meanwhile
some company may conclude to build
local narrow gauge into Southern Utah,
but it is not likely.
In view OF this, it is deplorable to re-.
fleet upon the calamity the possible cleo.
ton Of Hayes might be to the interests
of Southeastern Nevada. Let us hope
the Enterprise may be mistaken.

Let US nov examine some lyrical forms

mountain, Or by a weapon, that the sun
may burn them, or the mountain crush
them, or the weapon wound them, il thew
lie. The even ruder savages of the Bra

raise the hand over the head. or thrust
it into their hair, or they will touch the
points Of their weapons. These two se-
counts Of savage ceremony introduce us
to customs well known to nations of
higher culture. The raising of the hand
toward the sky seems to mean here what
it does elsewhere. It is, in gesture, call
ing on the heaven-god to smite the per-
Iurer with his thunderbolt. The touch
ing OF the head, again, carries its mean.
ing among these Brazilians almost az
plainly as in Africa, where we find men
swearing by their heads or limbs, in the
belief that they would wither if forsworn;

witness swearing to speak the truth takes

thunderbelt THAT is, of course, a tone
celt, The oath by the Weapon not only
lasted on through classic ages, but re.

it was expressly forbidden by a synod;

carry yet a step further the illustration
OF the way mems minds work in this
primitive stage of association of ideas.
One of the accounts from New Guinea ia
that the swearer, holding up an arrow.
calls on heaven to punish him if he lies:
but by turning the arrow the other way
