After the mines you may look out

that, within a year, the glories Of tho
graqdest Of your oil kings and your
Nevada millionalres will pale before
the dazzle Of some Colorado miners,
who will naturally gravitate first to
New York, then to Paris. Their story
can be read in the Arabian Nights. j
You may form some idea of it from
the fact that Professor Weisser, who
went through the mines with a foot
rule measuring the ore aud thon
assayed samples from various parts of
tho veins, reported that two or three
mines here contained each $3.50, 000,-
600 to $500, 000, 900 worth of silver,
which could be extracted at small
expense. 1t is said that Mr.. Mackay's
income is $4,000 600 a year. But the
income Of Governor Tabor, who eigh.

The cashier of a small bank came here

persistently denied until the 18th of
August, and still it was not conceded
to be epidemic nor would they agree
that it was until the 10Th Of August,
when it made itself known IN an un
mistakable manner. The suddenness
of the onset created such a panic that
no precautionary measures could DO
taken, aud hence much Of the
fatality and all Of its dissemina
ton to surrounding towns was
due to this eq%uivocation. They have
begun differently this time, and each
case will be reported as it occurs, The
experience of the past year will be
valuable in every respect, but in none
more than its prevention elsewhere.
1t will require more convincing testi
mony than any yet received to make
us believe it has already assumed an
epidemic form, But, should it do so,
we are justified in believing that
prompt measures will be taken, al
ready determined on, to stamp it out.
Every human effort is being made to
do SO. Should they fail, the entire
evacuation of the place will be adopt
ed, coupled with measures to prevent
its dissemination elsewhere. We need
not have much fears here, even should
it prove epidemic in Memphis. Nash
vile Is in a better sanitary condition
to-day than it was last year, yet its
condition was good enough then to en-
able US to escape.
