DESTROYS OF BEING ANNEXED
To NEVADA.

The citizens of southeastern Oregon
appreciate the interest manifested by
the people of Winnemucca for their
safety during the late Indian troubles,
and are unanimously in favor of being
annexed to Nevada. AT the FIRST call
for assistance u party of volunteers, all
that could be mounted and armed at
short notice, left for the north and
marched to White Horse, where the
settlers from all parts of the surround
ing country had gathered their most
valuable horses and sought refuge from
The savages. Though the most urgent
appeals for assistance were sent to
General Howard. who was then at
Sheep Ranch, and to the authorities of
Oregon, ueither responded, and the
only aid afforded them was from
Humboidt Volunteers. For these
aud other reasons they are now
agitating the question of annexa-
ton. The southern parts of
Baker and Grant counties are cut off
from direct communication with the
State Capital. Their interests are
identical with those of Northern Neya-
da. Their cattle are shipped to mar
ket from Winnemncca, and their farm
ing implements and supplies are all
purchased at or shipped from this
place. Their business relations are all
with Nevada, and the government of
Oregon takes no interest ip their part
of the state, except to collect taxes, 1t
Is probable that bill will be intro
duced in the Oregon Legislature at its
next session by the Senator elect from
Grant county to annexthe southern. part
of that county to. Nevada. but it is not
likely that the webfoot law makers from
the western part OF the State will agree
TO so just measure, notwithstanding
che unanimous sentiment of the people
directly interested in favor of it.

The Territorial Enterprise pretends

pect Of rebel claims, aggregatipg about
three thousand millions of dollars, be-.
ing allowed by Congress yet Judging
by the tone of the paper, the editor Of
Me Enterprise if elected Governor of
Nevada, a position to which he aspires,
would not hesitate moment to sign a
bill repeating the tax on bullion, and
compelling owners of other kinds Of
property 20 bear the whole expense of
nunning the State Government, There
is not the slightest danger of taxation
being increased to pay the rebel claims,
because such claims if presented, would
not be recognized by Congress; but.
there is real danger of, an increase of
taxation in Nevada, if the next Legisla
tnre and Governor of the State repeal
the tax on the net proceeds of mines.
The people are aware of this real dan
ger, and will not be deceived by the eff
forts of certain journals to
conceal it beneath the imagin-
ary dangers from rebel claims. The
issue in Nevada is simply this: Shall
the rich. mining corporations of the
State be compelled TO bear just and
squitable proportion of the expenses of
the State Government, or shall other
property have TO bearthe whole burden
of taxation; and the real danger is that
. majority of the next Legislature, and
the next Governor may favor the latter
course, the imaginary one that Con-
gresham will be elected who will favor
the payment of rebel claims. ~
