Mr.. Editor: 1 see by yesterday morn
ing's SENTINEL that some taxpayers APP
peared before tho Board Of County Com
missioners and requested that their names
be stricken from the petition asking for an
increase Of valuation upon the property Of
the railroads, on the ground that they had
been induced to sign said petition under .
misunderstanding. Your paper also stated
that the taxes upon the railroads are higher
than ever before. Now, Mr.. Editor, 1
maintain that, in the long run, the labor
ing classes nave to bear the burden of
these inequalities in taxation by paying
increased rents and greater prices for sup
plies, etc., etc., and l therefore claim a
right to be heard on the subject. / have
been engaged in making q comparison Of
the assessments upon own property with
those upon the railroads and so far as /
have examined into the matter, ! have
found that the discrimination in favor of
the railroads range from % per cent. to
so per cent. and l think l will be able to
show that the average will not fall below
40 per cent.
1t is claimed that the assessment upon
the Central Pacific Railroad is about the
same in other counties as it is in this, and
also that former Boards in this county have
established the precedent. To my mind
neither Of these facts arc likely to be CON
sidered as good arguments in favor Of an
action initiating against the interests Of o
majority Of the taxpayers of this county,
and if their rights have not hitherto been
asserted, it by no means follows that they
should not now be maintained.
The Supreme Court Of the United States
has recently decided, ID the case Of The

hat the right Of a Commonwealth to regu-
late railroads is not forfeited by reason of
non-user. / say this to reassure such as
might fear the result Of litigation, as the
same principle is applicable. Many, l
know, do not fear this litigation, as q very
prominent taxpayer informed me this
morning that he would rather see every
dollar in the Treasury expended than be
compelled to submit to this injustice. !

The facts Of the case, as given to us, in
regard to the ascending Of Bob Cava-
naugh, are simple and disgusting enough
for the most morbid taste. Cavanaugh
was married less than a year ago to a lady
iK this city, and proved to be one Of the
kindest husbands-in fact, during the past
two months, has been remarkably affcc-
tionate towards his wife. On Sunday
evening Cayanaugh informed his wife that
he was to start the next morning for
Beowawe was going down with certain
parties on an cl~ectioneering expedition.
There was nothing unusual in such a pro-
gramme, and, until Monday evening. when
certain bills, and divers rumors and dis
patches came floating in, did Mrs. Cava-
naugh and tho garrulous public dream Of
anything wrong.
Inquiries, yesterday, disclosed the true
state Of affairs, to-wit: That Bob Cava-
naugh had, in company with Miss Ella
Ross, shaken the fue dust of Eureka from
his heels forever.
At4 4. NJ. Monday, Bob got up, kissed
his wife good bye" and started out on
his electioneering ~ trip, as his wife sup
posed. Revelations, since made known,
show that he walked straight to o residence
near the Consolidated furnaces. and was
there joined by a closely yelled woman.
From thence they waded through the
dust to the train. which was about
TO pull out for Palisade. Once On the
train. things moved as though the world
was still regulated, emergencies" Of Eu-
raka's sensations. On to Palisade they
went, and boarded the ~west-bound train,
but at Battle Mountain Horace Greeley's
advice was disregarded, and they snapped
off for a trip eastward. They are now sup
posed to be in the city Of the Saints.
Mrs. Cavanaugh says that her husband
appeared restless during Sunday night, but
she attributed this to his anxiety not to
miss the train, which was undoubtedly
the case.
Mrs. Cavanaugh has been holding stocks
for a long time, and az it was good prop
erty-being worth, as the stock market in
dicated, upwards Of So, 000-and as she had
a kind husband, she was happy beyond de-
scription. This stock her husband had
converted into cash, and had collected va
rious other amounts. which must have
made him, financially, solid for a nice
little journey during the campaign.
Bob Cavanaugh has held important sit
nations among our citizens, and has been
respected, but OF Miss Ross we have not
much to say, as VIC do not know much
about her. That she is a 'tolerable" look
ing writing mistress we do know, and that
she has teen divorced from a former hus-
band we are told. The friends Of Cava-
naugh regret that he should have taken
this step, ON his own account, and that Of
his wife.

Diversions Mt the HALL.
1t has been intimated to us that fair
women, the may dance and o general
good time, will not be the only attractions
at the ball tomorrow night. for, it has
been whispered, that one Of the leading
members Of the legal profession in this
town will walk q tight-rope from the stage
to the gallery, and then slide down, with a
hoisted umbrella, after the style of the jap
anese Q rformers who visited this country
. few years ago. One Of the medical pro-
fession has volunteered to turn a series Of
back and forward somersaults around the
hall. Two Of our leading merchants will
give an exhibition OF their skill with the
gloves, in a friendly set-to on the stage,
and one Of our boss mechanics, assisted by
q we'll known mining man., will toss balls
and knives, spin the plates and exhibit
other specimens OF skill and dexterity.
The ladies will also lend their aid to the
attractions of the evening, in addition to
their presence. One Of the fair ones, q
visitor here from one Of the Eastern cities,
will display her agility by leaping through
two balloons at the same time, the bal
looms being held some distance apart. An
other fair damsel will dance a clog,
accompanying herself on the bones !; while
vet a third will give an imitation Of Lola
Montez in her famous spider dance. Quite
q number OF volunteers in songs, duets and
auartettes have offered their services.
These exhibitions are to be given, we un-
derstand, provided the hall be not too
much crowded but we think there will
certainly be at least a fair attendance, from
the novelty Of the performance and the
we'll known characters Of the amateurs. II
not, we are at q loss to know what will at
tract. particularly SO, as it is in SO good o
cause.

its workings are. whether you wish to pur-
chase or not, at the boot store next door

A Look into Geo. OTIS Carriage
Factory.


About two years ago Mr.. George OFT was
burned out, suffering q severe loss, but
time and a good trade has at last rewarded
him, SO that to-day he stands on as solid a
business foundation as any manufacturer
of whom we know. In Mr.. Otis estab-
lishment things look new the machinery
for the wood and iron work necessary in
the making Of wagons is complete, and
just such as is needed--and there is no
more, to be numbering up his rooms.
There are three distinct departments
one for the woodwork; another where the
iron-work is done, and then the paint
shop--all of which are under the direct
supervision Of Mr.. OFT, who employs none
but the best Of workmen. He is now
working but six men, but when the trade
demands, puts on more.
The stock on hand guarantees us in sayi
ing that this mandatory is prepared to
turn out, upon the shortest notice possible,
anything from q baby carriage to . 60
pound sulky, and SO on up to the biggest
schooner or freight wagon that sails from
this port.
By special arrangement with q S~andusky,
Ohio, firm, Mr.. OFT gets the celebrated
Severn pateut-wheel, and as the freight is
the same for . poor one, he gets the best,
and has the rim Of the wheel made deeper
than those Offered in the Eastern market,
on account Of our rocky roads,
which tears out q thin trimmed wheel very
rapidly. Some Of the heaviest lumber
used comes from San Francisco.
Carriage and wagon painting ia a spe-
cialty in this house, and as everyone XII ows
the value OF paint as a protective against
weather. they have much to do. Lettering
ON wagons was going on as we called in,
an l sign painting is also a feature.
Mr.. Otis express and light, country
wagons are running on every road in East
ern Nevada, and as the demand for his
make is increasing we think this vouches
enough; their motion and durability speak
for them.
Messrs. Highly and Williams, Of Dia-
mond Valley, each had a wagon from this
house. and Mr.. Wilmington, of White
River, has two, and if we chose we could
go ON to enumerate many who are running
Mr.. Otis wagons in Austin, Tybo, Hamil-
ton and other towns in the State. In Eu-
reka there are many in use, and Eube Egg
lesion rides in as fine a buggy as anybody,
which came from his factory.
