Carson daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1873-1877, 1876-09-26


DoCoLAs COUNTY. al represented by
The Carson Valley News, presents Its
claim az place for the State Fair. On
this subject that paper says: The Car
snni,es have for three years been endea''
nripc to perfect a Estate Fair Associ-
alton" iu that place, and have thus far
made an utter failure, the Society being
.Iready some 50. eco in debt and moth
ing accomplished. Reno has made two
aiseraceful failures, and people stand in
dread Of the third. Carson claims that
it is now her turn again. OF the two We
would prefer to see the Fair at Carson
in 1877, for We DO believe that Carson
would be neighborly enough to extend
to US an invitation to participate With
them in the something
which Reno has not dsi9ned to do; but
with all Difference to our beloved neigh
Dor, we cant refrain from exhibiting
little selfisbness by modest!y laying
claim 10 hearing ourselves. Dousias
is almost solely IN agricultural county;
OF ten, ana Justly called the Garden o!
Nevada" The finest stock, the finest
largest yield to the ncre of any county IN
the State, is what We boas of-prt minms
gwen by the CaIi!orni. JOCKEY Club OF
Reno to the contrary Notwithstanding.
We claim to be nearer the ccn.er Of the
agricultural portion Of the State than
either Washoe or Orm>hy. the irnckee
Meadows and WaShOe Valley beng re-
spec,ively SO and 20 miles distant in one
direction and Antelope, Smiths and
Mason's valleys from 40 to 50 miles dis
saut in an opposite direction. We hope

se localities In another year. IhIs Is

prosperity, should not. and we believe
will not. ignore the claims OF her old

time for MS to avail ourselves of golden
opportunity to press our claims. II

some Carson speakers were at Hayes
and Wheeler Club meeting in Virginia
City. on Saturday evening last. and are
thus noticed by the Enterprise:
Routine business was dispensed with
for the purpose of allowing the assem-
bled citizens, who filed the hall to its
utmost capacity. to hear addresses from
Messrs. c. S. Mott and H. F. Bartlne Of
Carson. Mr.. Nott's address occupied
nut few minutes and was principally
devoted to a historical sketch of the
origin Of the Republican party, its prin-
ciples in the past aud glance at the
platform in the present campaign. The
speech of Mr.. Bartins occupied about an
hour in delivery, and as he is very
rapid talker, it would be very difficult TO
give it entire even with the facilities en-
joyed by the leading metropolitan jour
nails. It is a matter of regret in this in
stance that such facilities were not avail
able, because such a clear, comprehen-
sive, incisive and logical address is sell
dom heard even from our best political
orators. Could Mr.. Bartine be prevailed
upon to repeat his address before
larger audience in this city. at some
future time, the community and the Re.
publican party would be materially ben

RUNAWAY. = Yesterday forenoon two
little sons of Mr.. D. L. Bliss were taking
q ride in their phaeton drawn by their
usually quiet little mare, and while in
front of David's livery stable the mare
ran away and the phaeton collided with

Both the boys were thrown
out, one of them in front of the wheels
Of the standing team. from which peril
