THEIR MEETING At wINNEMuccA.
Summary Of Mr.. Mitchelr's Re-
MARKS.

Congressman Deal and Hon. H. X.
Mitchell spoke at Winnemucca Saturday
night. Mr.. Deals speech was pretty much
Vie same a. thst delivered here. Follow
ing is . synopsis Of Mr.. Mitchell's remarka
as furnished by the .siiver State:
Mr.. Mitchell said that it wss too late to
change the mind Of any voter Who shinks
for himself. Mr.. Daggett claims no re-
sponsibility for the sentiments Of the En-
isrprise, although connected with that
paper for YEAR,. Are we then to look upon
him as simply the hireling Of corporations
A man who expresses through the columns
Of that Journal tlc sentiments Of his MAG
tersy
He considered the Chinese question IN
ugly one. Our Declaration Of Indepen-
d nee held that all men ere born free aud
equal. An alien can not take or hold Pei u
estate, and as the Circnit Court u Califor-
MIA decided that Chinese could not become
citizens, they can not obtain . permanent
foothold on American soil. He did mot
think the Government would abrsgate the
Chinese treaty. All Europe wants the va
and silk of China. and these products go
through the United States, and the Gov
eminent would not annul the trcaty with
China. He is opposed to Chinese immi-
grafton, and in favor OF supervising it BY
legislation and preventing Chinese from
acquiring property in the United States.
The speaker spoke of the dignity Of
labor. 1t was labor that founded our Gov
ernment. All our institutions, since the
landing Of the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock,
were supported by labor.
We complain Of fares and freights; then
send men to our Legislatures who will re-
fleet our sentiments. and fares and freights
will be regulated. Republicans have had
control of the Legislature for years. and
told the people year after year they would
regulate fares and freights. but have not
done so, and this year they renew their
promise.
He reviewed the State ticket, endorsed
the nominees, with all of whom he was
personally acquainted, and advised the
people to vote for them because their
records as men and officers showed that
they could be trusted.
Mr.. Mitchell is one Of the most logical
and forcible speakers in the State, and
many Of his hearers regretted that the
l~ateness Of the hour prevented him from
discussing the issues Of the campaign at
greater length. He was warmly applauded.
and both speakers were greeted by many
friends at the close Of the meeting

From the San Francisco Stock Report.l

e.
Our city contemporaries very naturally
erred in their estimates Of the late lamented
d. D. Colton's fortune. The deceased was
a railroad manager but not a railroad mag
nate. His position as Financial Dirt ctor
of the Central Pacific Railroad Company
and Vice President Of the Southern Pacific
Railroad Company, gave him a social posi-
ton second only to that Of Stanford,
Croker and Huntington. To sustain this
position it was nee essary for him 10 make
inroads on his private fortune. The $751;
600 yearly salary received by General Col
ton from the railroad companies was in
adequate to the demands upon the Cen
erals purse. His princely libeiaIity knew
no restraint, and so at the time Of his
death his fortune was not large. The
house on Mob Hill. which has been the
scene of so many brilliant entertainments.
was mortgaged for very near its full value.
But the flight Of his riches is no reflection
upon the character Of General Cotton. 1t
simply goes to prove, what his friends al
ways said, that he was liberal to a fault.

A young man, considerably under the
influence Of liquor, was talking rather
loudly to Ed. Dean, in front Of Ed.'s sa-
loon, on North Main street, when along
game Uncle Jimmy, who clapped his
clutches upon the young man, and tossed
him to one side. Bat he came up smiling.

laid the hands of the law upon the armed

endeavors to disarm their captive, who de-
cidedly objected to being carted off to
jail. The knife was taken from him, how
ever, and he was Gagged. Bnt for the cool
ness Of those about, some one would surely
have been hurt. After the skirmish was
over, some keen eyed prospector discovered

1t takes but a few more spans to finish
the trestle work of the railroad that was

Such glorious weather as we, along the
Base Range are how enjoying, Is good

The second set Of castings for the bot

Things were moving at an unusual lively
rate about the depot grounds yesterday

War.

The Old World is being agitated by
rsmors OF war. Church and State vie
with each other in their attempts to create
popular sympathy with the especial cause
which they themselves favor. Even here,
in this country, social and political reforms
are the order of the day. In the East,
kearney is advocating the claims of the
W~orkingmen's party. Here at home, the
excitement in consequence Of the APP
proaching election is intense. Political
demagogues harrangue immense audiences,
and candidates buttonhole registered
voters in the interest of their party in gen
eral, and themselves in particular, and
the views they entertain seem to
be as varied AZ the Offices they seek
but on one question every party, every
creed, each sect aud each individual agree,
namely: that Farmer q Lesser, of the
New York store, have a larger stock, and
sell better goods for less money, than any
other house in Nevada. Read their adj
vertisement in this paper.

The only child Of Mr.. and Mrs. Ben. C.
Levy died at 5 o'clock yesterday morning,
aged 2 years, s months and IL days. she
had been suffering for nearly a month from
an attack Of scarlet fever. Little Evelyn
was a bright, promising child and the JOY
and hope of her fond parents. We know
that words are inadequat, to assuage grief.
10 consolation can be offered that viii in
any sense ccmfort the devoted parents in
their sad and almost vulnerable bereave-
ment. Time alone can partially lift up the
fond hearts 0 bowed and crushed in
grief. This word is full of disappoint-
ments. ID ath is the common lot of all.
If we could bring ourselves to realize it,
a few years more or less should not be
reckoned. The bright spirits that wing
their way at a tender age, miss the cruel
hardslips Of this cold, ungcnerous world.
They go where sorrow is unknown and
where life is eternal. This is the only
thing approximating G. nsolation that can
possibly be suggested or offered. Mr.. and
Mrs. Levy have the sincere coincidence Of
the entire community in their sad aiilic-
ton. The funeral will take place at 2 P.
NJ. to-day, from the residence of the parents
opposite the Episcopal Church.

As a specimen OF Young America was
parading up and down Main street. yester-
day, with a iireman's hat on his head. he
passed a little too close to a rancher's
hungry mule, which was standing hitched
10 a post, AID the animal reached for that
hat and swallowed ii as greedily as he
would a monthful of alfalfa. The young
ster cussed, cried and threw stones at that
mule, but the animal quietly blinked as he
masticated the "tit-bit."

One of them entered into converse

his attention while tho others i'm
proved the time by getting at the

EDISON AGAIN.

Professor Edison who has given the
country so many wonderful inven.
tions the last year, announces still
another. He has invented machine
for making electricity cheap substi'
tute for Illuminating gas. The elec'
trio lights for Illuminating streets has
been in use for some time, but the
puzzle was to divide it into smaller
lights for use in dwellings, stores, &C.
Mr.. Edison claims to have invented a
machine for this purpose which he
will soon have ready for exhibition
and use. He says it will make the
use of gas for illumination thing Of
the past. He is also at work on an
invention for transmitting heat and
rover by electricity. A Mr.. Wall
ace, of Connecticut, also claims to
have invented an electrical machine
by which the mighty force Of Niagara
Falls will be made available oil over
the United States. Don't be too hard
on us, gentlemen, with these stupen-
dous inventions, at least until tho
grsenback question is settled.

GYPSY QUEEN FUNERAL.

Tramps are both . disgust and ter
ror. Not quite so are the gypsies.-
There is a dash of romance and mys-
terry in their life which excite poetic
interest. Their family fittings in the
spring and summer are regular events.
AS they set up their camp in the
greenwood by a bubbling spring,
there is rather a picturesque charm
in the scene with its groups of brigaud
looking men and olive.hued women
with lustrous eyes who tell young
girls their fortunes. They may not
be evenly clean or tidy or truthful
The men do not rise in the confidence
Of the farmers as they roam about
m.kins swinaling horse.trades, and
when the camp breaks up the neigh
borhood feels elioved. But who are
the gypsies? whence do they como
and where do they go2
An interesting gypsy demonstration
lately took place in Dayton, Ohio,
which throws light upon these ques-
tions. Dayton appears to be the head
quarters Of the gypsy tribes, Of which
there are a dozen or more in this
country. They are said to own sew
eral large tracts Of land near Dayton.
Last winter Matilda Stanley, who was
recognized by all the tribes as their
Queen, died in Vicksburg, Mississippi.
Her body was embalrned and brought
to Dayton for burial. The funeral
took place on the 18th inst, and the
body is said to have presented fresh
and natural appearance. The dead
Queen had been a woman Of stony
character and excited upbounded in
fuence over her race. Her faculty CT
telling fortunes was wonderful and
was handed down to her as the eldest
daughter Of the royal gypsey family Of
the Stanleys. Her secret Of fortune
telling was known to her alone. The
funeral was an imposing event. The
procession was mile in length. All
the leading chiefs and representatives
had been gathering for the expected
event. The ceremony was conducted
by Rev. Daniel Burgher minister Ct
the United Brethren church and did
not differ from ordinary christian fu'
nerals. The cemetery was full of
spectators, not less than twenty thou
sand being present. Tho church
choira Of Dayton supplied the music.
AS the body was placed in the grave
the children Of the queen threw them
selves on the spot and filled the air
with lamentations, making an aff,ct-
ing scene. The aged King still lives
on one of the farms. This event has
given US more information Of the or
ganizatlon and mode of life of the
gypsies than had been previously
known.
