-CoLoRADo has been overrated
and the consequence is that it will
now probably suffer a more than
corresponding depression. Our prom
inent ColnstGkers who obtained pos
session of property there at first and
were so ready at decrying tke Cam
stock and loud in their praises of the
new mining field, will probably soon
return and tell US that the ComStock
Is the best place after all.
Il was the influence of this class
ct r1en to which we are in great part
indebted for the late almost dlscour-
aging state of business. 1t was to
their private interest to divert capt.

acquired property was situated, and
the easiest method Of doing SO was
to spread damaging reports regard.
ing the Comstock vein, and at the
same time encourage the Colorado
newspapers in writing glowing ac-
counts of the enormous wealth of
that country. These men who owed
al ,hey had to the Nevada mines,
also busted themselves in alarming
Eastern capital concerning the labor
question on the Coast, making
'trong.point of the high price paid
per day to miners. This was done
without explaining the high price
paid for freight, water and every
thing else, or the great profits which
did accrue to those who were fortu-
nate in their investments.
Having by judicious invcstment in
eXtravagant newspaper reports of the
wonderful resources of Leadville,
GInnison and other districts sue
ceedod in disposing Of their property
to inexperienced Eastern men at an
immense profit, they will return to
the Comstock and endeavor to re-
sumo their old standing as desirable
citizens by loud assertions of their
belief that this is the only field for
legitimate mining, and that here
they intend to remain.

THE latest and worse

The latest and worse case of
lovers revenge comes from Australia.
A young man whose affianced went
back on him and broke off their en-
gagement received a note from her

hair which he had He looked oyer

warded them in bundle to Ills late
lady, love, inclosing a note TO the eff

from those forwarded and return the
rest at her earliest convenience. The

THE PARTY OF FREE LABOR.

fffff. gNf[ 81 = = - -
The Eepvblican party has always
been o,ltspoken ON the subject of tree
labor. It hal its beginning 10 the
slavery agitation and still retains the
principles Of twenty years ago. Re
publican denunciation of Chinese i'm
migration is sincere because servile
labor is the result.
As the people of the East begin to
understand tho Chinese question.
the Republican party in the Atlantic
States is convinced of the dangrrnus
influence of coolie labor, and setting
in accordance with it's principle,
from the beginning. is sincere in pro-
.fessiops of distrust of the Mnuc, .IiaD.
On the other hand, the Democratic
leaders, while compelled TO make
terms with the horde of immigrants
from other nations whose votes they
are anxious to control and who are
jealous of competition, are beginning
to understand that Chinese labor is
akin to slave labor, and that it would
if permitted supply the place of Ne
gro slaves in the South.
Before the question was under
stood Eastern Republicans, looking
upon 1t merely as upon immigration
from any Other foreign nation, had
no sympathy to waste on the cause
of foreign demagogues and commun-
lists, whose shrieks were known to be
only the outward manifestations of
jealousy of more industrious race,
and Eastern Democrats were inclined
to favor the cry for the purpose OF
concilliating this class and using
their votes at elections. Now it is
different; as the actual condition OF
affairs becomes understood, the Re.
publican party has become earnest in
is desire to abrogate the Chinese
treaties, while the Democrats, seeing
a prospect of return to slave labor,
although not daring as yet to ignore
the demands of so many of their sup
porters, who really have very little
more claim to consideration than
have the Chinese, are luke warm in
the cause, so much so that none of
their leaders dare to personally put
themselves emphatically on record,
but confine themselves to the gener-
alities of the platform, for which no
one can he held individually respon-
sible.

To Candidates!

When a citizen wants an Office he
makes il known that he is a candi-
datei An announcement will cause
a discussion as to his character and
qualifications which, if good, will
benefit him. None but good men
will care to have their claims dis
cussed, and it will only cost ten dol
lars, STRICTLY IN ADVANCE, to start
the talk. The columns of the TINES
are now open.

THE STATE TICKET.

The result of the deliberations of
the State Convention cannot but
prove satisfactory to the Republi-
cans of Nevada. Both r. M. Dag
sgett and w. II. Beatty have proved
themselves fit men for the positions

rs promise for the future.
The people Of Nevada can now
: compare the tickets of the two par
ties, and when they do they will
q award the prizA for ability and merit
to the Republican nominees.

Fatal Stroke of Lightning.

The heavy storm on Thursday last
was not without its fatal results in this
section. John Mealy, son of Henry
Mealy, who lives in Pennington town
ship, Clarion county, was coming to
Town with load of staves'and stopped
at Mr.. Wentworth's, about two miles
from this place, to feed and take din
ner. He had just got his team hitched
up after dinner and was standing on
his load ready to start when the
lightning struck him and he fell back
dead. Jas. Black and Geo. Hood
who were near the scene ran to his
assistance but no. signs of life were
apparent. A mark under the chin
running around to the back OF the
neck aDd part way down the spine
was all that could be found on the
body. Both horses were knocked
down, and one of them was so badly
| injured that he will probably be unh
for further use. The remains of The

The New Pipe Line.

Regarding the new pipe line which
is being laid from Kane to Turkey
CITY, and for which large quantity
of the pipe is being hauled from this
station, a Clarion correspondent otthe
Derrick says:
The new six inch line from Turkey
City to Kane, was completed as far as
Edepburg Yesterday. The force Of
men employed has been largely in
creased ana there is now over one
hundred at work on this end while an
equally large force is at work on the
Kane end, coming this way. After
leaving Shippenville the pipe will have
to be distributed by teams and Will
require at least fifty from two to three
weeks, to complete the distribution
A large amount of 6itching is being
done. At one place, between Mon
roeyiIle and Beaver was noticed q
continuous excavation about two feel
deep and mile long. 1t is expected
thet the line will be completed, ready
to run oil, by the middle of July OF
the fist of August at the furtherest
The following figures will show abou
how much capital will be invested II

estimates are strictly accurate, for o
course it would be next to impossiol
to get them so, but they are not man.
