n. II. Yerington arrived In Aurora by
private conveyance last Wednesday even
ing, remained over night. visited Bodie
Thursday. and returned here the same
day. Yesterday morning q represents
tive OF this paper had o few minutes
talk with the gentleman. In regard to
the railroad, Mr.. Yerington said trains
would be running to the foot Of Walker
Lake some time in December. 1t was
intended to have had the road finished
to that point much earlier, and such
would have been the case had the
company not been disappointed in
getting their locomotive from the shop
In Philadelphia. the arrangement be-
Ing to have that necessary article here
on the LIST Of the present month. Word
Was received last Monday that the loco
motive had only been shipped about the
date 1t Was expected to have arrived at
the Mound House, thus putting the
work back nearly Q month. The track
iron 10 on hand to commence operations
Immediately. All the grading Is COM
pletsd to the south end Of the lake.
When the track laying begins two OF
three miles will be completed every day.
When the road 10 finished persons leav.
ing San Francisco at 4 p. n. one day.
will arrive In Aurora at z P. n. the next
day.
The Bodis and Walker lake wagon road
10 being pushed to completion, and will
be flushed some time before the railroad.
It 10 intended to make this one OF the
best wagon roads in tho State, and the
work done In the Del Monte canyon goes
far toward establishing this statement aa
Q fact.
It Is the firm belief Of Mr.. Ysrinstou
that Aurora will be benefited materially
by the road; and he also says that An.
rora will, at no distant day. be one oil
the best mining camps in the State. In
this connection be spoke Of the necessity
Of an A ! road from this point to the
Del Monte mill. on Bodis creek, to tap
the Walker lake and Bodis road. II
needed widening In many places. to al.
low teams to pass. In order to make quick
connection with up and down trains; and
especially he would call the attention Of
the Board Of Commissioners to the en-.
trance into Aurora. the hill near the Ex.
change Hotel. The Company afs will
ing to help the people Of Aurora in this
matter. The completion Of the railroad
and the wagon road would pot many
teams on the latter. and 1t Is advisable
to have the road leading from this town
first-class In every respect.
Whenever the business OF Aurora and
Bodie warrants 1t, a branch railroad will
be run from Walker lake to tap these
two points, and the road bed up De-
Monte canyon was being built with thai
object in view.
Mr.. Yerington left here for Wake,
lake yesterday, thence down the line Of
the railroad to the Mound House.

The Democratic newspaper editors
having exhausted themselves trying to
prove that General Garfield 10 9 great
public robbsr. corrupionist and wicked
man generally. have finally settled down
to the proposition that he actually did
receive 1929 OF the Credit Mobilier steal.
They have stuck to this from the very
frst. and all other charges having been
worn into thresdbars nothinRness and
blown away they all join BY common
consent In one universal howl Of "329!"
The Democracy throughout the country
take up the refrain and imagine II does
them good. They write It on the walls
Of public buildings. private residences.

will steal 1929. or q man who cannot
steal more than that. is totally unAt to
be President. The New York Sun pub
lishes columns OF small, laboriously
written editorial squibs. each containing
those cabslistio figures, s2s. and all the
small fry Democratic journals from
Bangor to San Diego eIultiDsly follow
suit. They evidently think II an excel.

Sherman then addressed the crowd.

The Largest Vessel that Ever FIoatsd
Siirer State, October o.

Last evening two or three persons.
one OF them q tall, lank specimen from
away down East. were discussing the
relative size OF ssa-goins vessels. One
remarked that the City Of Peking, which
carries $50 car loads Of tea across the
Pacific Ocean. musto compare favorably
in size with the largest vessels on the
ocean. Another said the Great Eastern,
the largest vessel that ever floated. could
carry the City OF Picking and Its cargo.
At this the Down-Easter expectorated,
and getting his throat cleared. said :
"Your Pekin' and Great Eastern are
nothing but mud-scows compared with
the May Flower. There 10 o furni-
ture scattered through New England that
that ar ship brought over than . dozen
OF your Pskips and Great Eastsrus
would hold" The others did not quss-
ton the truth Of this assertion, and the
discussion ceased.

roDAY's ~ELECrl0Ns.

Tomorrow or next day We may DO able
to form some idea as to the result OF the
State elections in Ohio and Indiana.
which are being held today. They do
not and cannot OF course decide the
coming Presidential election. yet they
canuot fail to indicate to q very oonsid-
cradle degree the relative strength OF
the leading political parties in those
States, and the possibilities OF the ALL
important election in November.
Ohio Is Of course Republican. and
now should demonstrate that fact In the
most uumistakabls in view OF
the fact that General Garfield. the hon-
orsd nominee OF the Republican party,
is from that State. The average Rspub-
lican majority in Ohio. however, Tor
several years past has not exceeded i've
or six thousand. Even II that 10 held
good this time IL will be sufficiently eI-
piicit, but the chances are in favor OF q
considerable increase Of the Republican
vote. The Democrats. however. are not
by any means idle. They have been
working like beavers and placing money
where /, 10 supposed to do the most
good for their party. the main object
beyond success for the Democracy being
a.
to reduce the Republican majority oil
possible and locally secure whatever
spoils they can in the shape OF county
or township offices.
Indiana 10 not by any means safe for
the Republicans. In fact, that State
has been Democratic for the last ten
years. except in 1872, and was so before
the war. Two years ago the Democratic
majority was ovsr ! $4,000. and II the
Republicans can overcome that. 1t will
DO most decidedly . triumph. In 1872.
through q temporary disagreement In
the Democratic ranks. the State went
for Grant, but the normal condition OF
the State 10 Democratic. The Democ-
racy have merely to hold their own IL
they can. while the hsht Of the Rspub-
licans is squarsly an aggressive one,
with everything to win. Much very
effective work to that end has been done.
and leading Republicans. best able to
Judge. confidently claim q victory.
1t is quite significant to observe that
the Democratic papers and leading
Democrats are inclined to yield Indiana
to the Republicans, and have already
raised tie cry Of fraud and corrupt
manipulation. charging that the Rspuo-
leans have been rushing negro voters
into that State as wsll-as Ohio BY thou
sands for months psss, also that great
sum. OF money have been brought to
bear in the way Of corruption. II this
latter proposition 10 correct. and the
Democrats receive their financial equiv
alsnt for being corrupted. honors are
easy, and they have nothing to COM
plain Of. On the other hand there Is .
very good possibility that the Hancock
boom has not been 80 favorably received
In Indiana as wal anticipated. and that
honest Rspublicanism has been lesiti.
mstsly gaining ground in that State.
which is claimed to be the case. Any
way We shall soon all know how far any
Of these spsculations are correct.
