MORNING APPEAL.
THE CARSON CITY SAVINGS BtNK.

In the early part Of the year Of 1879 The
different branches Of business and trades Of
0rmsby county were in such fouEishing and
increasing condition as to Justify the creation
Of additional banking facilities, and syndi-
cate was formed, composed Of some OF the
most solid men in the county, for the purpose
OF establishing a banking house TO assist III
accommodating the then growing trade. The
scheme was carefully taken under adyiscn2ent,
and the result Of the deliberations of these
gentlemen was the organization and incorpo-
ration of the Carson City Savings Bank, on
NAV IS, 1879 with a subscribed capital Of
$50. 900 At the outset the enterprise met
with much encouragement at the hands Of
oreiudiced individuals obstacles Of every
nature were thrown in its way to make it
prove a failure, but the managers were deter
mined, energetic and able business men, and
in the face of all former detractions, to-day
the bank enjoys q most enviable reputation
for careful and economical management, and
in that respect it is as model an institution as
any Oh the coast. The present subscribed
capital of the bank bank is 800, 900, Of which
81 ,565 50 is paid in. And, upon inquiry,
we learn that dividends accruing from the
earnings of the institution will be declared in
capital stock, instead of coin, until the sub
scribed capital stock is fully paid up. Under
the present exemplary management the most
implicit confidence is reposed II the bank,
and its business, which is of most desirable
nature, is steadily increasing. The following
list of officers and trustees in itself lends to
the institution a character of frmness and
stability: Officers George Tuty, President;
R. Kirman, Vice President; Geo 3. Hill,
Cashier Trustees-R. kirman Geo. fluffy,
John G. Fox, Geo. B. Hill, Jacob Klein, T.
D. Stadtmuller, A. w. Pray, L. A. Herriclz,
George ". kitzmeyer. At our request Mr.
George B. Hill, the cashier, kindly furnished
us with statement exhibiting the assets and
liabilities of the bank on January l, 1873,
which we subjoin, as it will likely prove of
great interest to many of our readers:

Last night about five minutes past Q o'clock
a very large and brilliant meteor fell out of
tie northern sky, Illuminating the whole

1t is described BY the gentleman who reported
it at this office as being as big, in appearance,
as half the size of the full moon and with
train of dazzling green light, 1t must have
been very beautiful.

A FIGHT.-Towards evening yesterday two
seedy and intoxicated ones were playing at
faro with twenty-five cent checks, in Shane S
saloon From their conversation it might
have been inferred that they were partners
in the venture, and that the gains losses
arising from the same should be divided share
and share alike. One of the seedy ones was
augmenting his pile steadily, while the others
capital had dwindled down to fine point of
nothingness. At this stage Of the game the
lucky one exchanged his checks for coin and
the pair stalked out of the saloon. When they
reached the sidewalk the unfortunate one re-
quested the lucky one to declare a dividend,
but he "couldn't see it, Then ensued long
and eloquent argument on the part OF the
busted sport, but it did not move the mercen-
airy soul of his 'Epard" an iota; on the other
hand, he walked away from the speaker while
he was in the midst of some of the choicest
rhetorical flights, and strolled in the direction
of Rails store. He had scarcely reached the
sidewalk, when the orator came up behind
and gave him kick in the small of his back
Then tussel commenced, and without ut
tering word they pounded each other in a
merciless manner. They were finally separ-
ated by some disinterested lookers-on. AS
there was no policeman in sight, no arrests
were made.
Mr.. Geo. l. Lammon was in the city yes
terday. He took the cars for Sacramento last
night.

The Proprietor of the MORNING APPEAL
takes this method of informing the publ,
that with the New Year are begun certain
changes and reforms which, he fiatters him

it certainly will be made more available t.
every one. Thus, the
Price of weekly Subscription by Carrier

THE LOCAL DEPARTMENT

Strictly Black Republican, or ''RadicaI;''
And the editor anticipates with pleasure the
probability that in supporting the next Re
publican candidate for the Presidency, he

to the mast, and neither surrender to the
Adherents OF the Lost Cause.
Nor give its support to policy which
Demolished the Republican Party of
the South,
And sought to

In short, the MORNING APPEAL will keep
on an even keel and stand by the friends of
Republican principles, Republican usage and

ability.

THE CALIFORNIA ELECTION.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 3.-The
official returns have been received
from all except seven counties be-
sides San Francisco, in which the
official canvass is not yet complete.
The counties yet to hear from will
give non-partisan majorities. The
result Of the count shows undoubt-
eddy that the non-partisan elected all
their 30 delegates at large, and prob
ably 81 county delegates 1t is
thought they may lose one Of that
number. The Keaneyites elect 81.
and possibly 81 county delegates, the
Republicans S, the Democrats !. The
non-partisans will thus have a major
ity Of II in the convention, or 20
over all others. 1t must also be re-
membered that the Republicans and
Democrats elected represent the con-
servativc element. 1t is also true
that number OF delegates from the
interior on the working-mau's ticket
are not in sympathy with what IS
known as kearneyism. and the same
may be said Of the city delegation.
The revolutionary element will form
only a small minority in the constitu-
fional convention.
