circles of Lincoln county in regard to the
apportionment made to this county by
the Republican State Central Committee

Eureka and White Pine counties; they

ing to the standard which they have
given out as the basis of the apportion-
ment that is TO be made; that is, by the
vote OF 1876, or that they will allow us
for the increase of voters in the several
places in the county The total vote of
this county in 1876 was 1853, that of
Phoebe being 500; but as new camps,
such as Royal City. Bristol. Lake Valley
Cor Patterson), Ten-Pahute, and other
camps, have sprung into existence since
then. we claim voting population as

portionment of one delegate for each 100
voters and one for the comfy at large,

HE BABES IN THE WooDs.-A couple
of the boys" who had been to Eagle
Valley to witness the recent school ex'
animation held at that place, and who
had INDUCED little too freely in The
brethrens cider, made the attempt to re.
turn from there during the same even
ing, but lost their way, and were obliged
to camp out. They say during their wan
dering in the night they passed through
q forest Of large trees, from rs to 10(
feet in height. but as there are not any
trees Of such size within sixty miles O
Eagle Valley. we presume it must hav'
been the action of the magnifying quail
ties of the cider on the sagebrush.
