THE PIONEER PICNIC.

| The picnic yesterday was not So largely at
tended as previous ones, but it was quite big
enough to embrace the larger part of the
movable male population OF Storey County
aud many from Reno, Carson, Dayton and
! the region round about. From thoughtful
| friend who was present and took some notes
we are provided with the material for the fol
lowing brief report. There were no accidents
to mar the festivities and no quarrels. Sen
ator Jones arrived on the ground from Reno
about o'clock Mr.. A. J. Tyrrell of the re-
ception committee introduced Col. Bob Taylor
speech, applaudlng Mr.. Jones course, es-
pecially concerning the silver bill and waxing
eloquent over the character of the Pioneers
in general and John Z. Jones i'll particular.
The Senator then came forward and made a
speech which, thoroughly appropriate as it
was and highly credita6le to his heart and
head, cannot, for lack of space be reproduced
here. We can only find room for the opening
and closing remarks which are as follows
Ladies and Gentlemen and Fellow Citizens
of Nevada: | should indeed possess cold
heart if all its sensiblities were not pro-
foundly moved by this inspiriting scene.
From the moment I reached the eastern
boundaries of this brave State, have re-
ceived an enthusiastic welcome. Would that
my tongue were inspired 50 that | might give
adequate expression to the emotions that are
struggling for utterance. No speaker was
ever honored by nobler audience. If there
be any class on earth that deserves the praise
of men and the multitude of nations it is the
bold Pioneer of empire, the bright, brave
men who carry their country to inhOspitable
regions and to remoter shores. The Pioneers
are the axmen of civilization, the evangels of
progress. 1t is the best and bravest of a land
who emigrate. The weak of heart and pur-
pose never enigrate until the restless feet of
the Pioneer have marked the way"
The concluding words are as follows "At
the close of the Senator'S speech, which was
frequently interrupted by applause, Congress
man Wren, R, NJ. Daggett and Attorney Gen |
eral KittrelI made appropriate remarks. Mu-
SIC IullpHtu, dllu LIE tAGTCiSSS OF Ine picnic

illness to the occasion, and SO did Daggett |

After the speech making the Senator and
'arty went home by private conveyance by
he Ophir Grade. He is said to be looking
well HIS reception was entirely
bipartisan and very hearty and enthusiastic
The racing, footbal!-ng and other games,
nd the dancing, found many participants
nd caused vast fund of enjoyment and
atisfactinn. Indeed the event was a COM
lete success in ali respects.
In Carson the flag was displayed from the
lint and other public places in honor of the
ccasion. The day was beautiful, though
omewhat warm, and the ancients and their
riends got through splendidly.
