oourss they have taken in relation 70
this military order Of the Governor. IL
says:
Thu order Of Governor Kinkead directing
n review Of the military Ut Carson on the
lth Of July. 10. In our Judgment . per-
fsctly proper one. There has been no re-
yisw Of the States militia for eleven years.
II was felt last year that such . review
ought 10 b held. but an election WAS COM
ing on and the authorities had mol the
uervs 70 make the order. This year the
PEOPLE Of Carson asked the Governor 70
have the militia Join in their celebration.

but, though the Governor withheld his an
swer for Q week. and though the matter
vas talked over here. there was not . sim
gle protest from Storey county. Finally

Virginia, evening before last, to arrange
for celebrating the Fourth. n OF the
speakers had the ~impudsnce to remark
that "ths county was paying 500 a
month toward keeping up the artillery
