A GOOD START.

With the advent OF the new year and
the assembling Of the Legislature comes
Tho fact that our youthful State is pretty
we'll fixed financially. Nevada at the
present time has ssr,n h,1sdnsd thousand
dollars in her Treasury; 500. 900 ahead
OF all debts and liabilities. Most any
business man would consider this to be
a fourishing state Of affairs. No other
State in the Union can make as good a
showing financially. And o comes
in the newly.elsetsd Legislature. They
find u wslLhlled Treasury. and will not
be worried as to the matter Of "ways
and means" in public expenditure. But
they must not DO too liberal on that ae-
count. They must bear In mind that
the fountain from which this great sur
plus in the Treasury has flowed is well
nigh exhausted; that the amount Of bull
lion tax coming into the Treasury is
very little. compared to what IL has been
heretofore. There 10 no sure thing
that the Sierra Nevada mine will
turn out to be q very heavily
paying one. or that the bonanza
min es will continue even small divi.
dends for any length Of time. Our leg
i~slators have to direct the eye OF econ
omy in this matter. and see that the
money OF the State Is properly cared
for and judieiously expended. The
present surplus in tho Treasury has to
provide for the much decreased pros
pective revenue OF the future. There
are various just and correct bills which
will be presented for their consideration.
but there will also. doubtless, be pre-
scented other bills amounting to merely
thieving schemes to extract money from
the State Treasury. such a large
amount OF ready money known to be
lying idle is u great temptation to mos,
anybody. and 1t should be- well guarded.
Nevada at the present time has arrived
at a elimination Of prosperity as far a.
her financial condition is concerned. and
as far as possible this happy state OF al
fairs should be made to hold out. She
has got a good start and IL should be
squarely and economically followed up.
