into the drawer with the destructive

A. CARD FROM MR.. DUNN.

On the Goth. instant, it was asserted
ID these columns, upon the authority, of
M, Austin correspondent, that Mr.. Dag
gait, candidate for Congress, was taken
10 Austin from Battle Mountain on a
special train, and. that Mr.. Daggett,
while pretending to-. be an anti-railroad
man, ran ahead Of his ticket at Carlin,
where the railroad shops are located.
Mr.. +. w. Dunn, Assistant General
Superintendent Of the Nevada Central
Railway, denies in. card, that Mr..
Daggett travelled from Battle Mountain
70 Austin on a special train. That of
course the Assistant General Supern-
tendent of the Nevada Central Railway
has a perfect rsght to do, if tits SO, but
he goes beyond the limits of. fairness,
when he asserts that Mr.. Cassidy, who.
had no more to do with the cores
Dondence than the Assistant General
superintendent must retsacb the
statement. Mr.. Cassidy, who was in
the southwestern, part of the State,
when the correspondence was published,
had no. knowledge. whatever of the
matter, and why he should have to re-
tract what he was not responsible for,
or be considered by the Assistant Cen
eral Superintendent, of, the Nevada
Central Railway an unfit person to rep
resent Nevada. in Congress, i9s beyond
the comprehension of ordinary mortals,

lief that corporations are infallible as
well as all-powerful, In justice to the
Nevada Central Railway and. to Mr..
Daggett, whom we have no desire to
misrepresense we publish Mr.. Dumas
card, but in justice to Mr.. Cassidy, Mr..
Dunn should not have sunk the rail-
way official in the partisan, and attempt
to hold him responsible, for that which

GARFIELD'S CHINESE LETTER.

Eastern exchanges containing the al
legged letter of Garfield on the Chinese
question are arriving. They place it in
avery different light from the Associa-
ted Press. That. partisan institution
said that no such man ASH. L. Morey
ever lived in Lynn, Massachusetts, and
that no such organization as the EN-
ployers', Union ever existed in that
place, John Pope Hodnett; President
of the United Labor League ofsAmerica,
says the Employers Union Of Lynn,
Massachusetts, is an organization of
boot aad shoe manufacturers, estab-
lshed after the ratification of the Bur-
iingame Treaty in 1868, to. import
Chinese. labor into Massachusetts, and
employ it in the manufacture OF boots
and shoes to replace thousands of,white
men in the business. The first impor-
tatien of these Chinese were taken to
South Adams, Massachusetts,, and there
employed at shoe making, by the EN-
ployers' Union, of which the late HI. L.
Morey, to whom the Garfield letter was
addressed, was President.
Now what are the people going to DO
about the letter.. The Associated Press
saysitisnot genuine, and denies that there
was such man as Morey, or such. an
organization, as. the Employers Union
at Lynn. On the, other hand, Hodnett
President ofthe Labor League, says there
is such an organization as the Employ
ers' Union at Lynn, and that Mosey
was President of it,, Truth, in which
the, letter was published, says it is gepY-
inc. aud publishes a fac sinile of the
letter., 1t also publishes what purports
TO be Garfield's denial of tha letter, and
says it is false, and courts. prosecution
tor libel so that the genuineness of
Garfeld's signature can be proved in the
courts. Instead of suing Truth for
libel and forgery, however, Garfeld's
friends content themselves, with offer
ing reward for the detection. of what
they call forger, knowing full well as
Truth says. that they will never be
called to pay it, as it is not a forgery.
We should be inclined to doubt the
gennineness of the lettar, were it not
for the fact that Garfield, voted to sus-
tain the Presidents veto Of the Chinese
bill, and only last week in an interview
with his home paper. the Cleveland
Leader, admitted that he is in favor of
Chinese, to, the, extent implied in the
alleged forged letter to Morey..
Later reports say that ons of the
editors of Truth has been arrested for
malicious ibel,.

Lake Bigler is famous the world over as
one of the most delightful summer resorts.
This season there will be another attrac-
ton hitherto not thought Of. The True
kee Republican says from present indica-
ions it is likely to prove a great mining
center. Already there is considerable ex-
element, and locations Of claims are being
made at a very lively late. Some time ago
a ledge was discovered about seven miles
from McKinney's landing which ~prospected
we'll, but the discoveries not having ready
means to develop it, the matter was kept
secret. Last summer considerable pros
pecting was lone on the ledge, and its
value proven. Out of one batch of ninety
pounds of rock a button valued at about
81 was obtained, and the whole vein proved
to be very rich. Lately an Eastern COM
pany of capitalists have taken hold OF the
mine and are going to erect machinery on
it at once. The section about the mine is
full of lodges, and they are being located by
prospectors who consider themselves fully
assured of a fortune. There is likely to be
a fiourishing mining camp over there soon.
Collaborating lodges are known to exist in
other places around the lake, and several
parties nave heretofore found black sand
in paying quantities.

The Law of Compensation.

The Burlington Hawkeye says: We once
knew a man who was always praising his
wife. On the corner, down street at the
postofsce, at the race-track, in the skating
rink, ct the theater, in the SAL, that is,
choir meeting. he was always telling what
a happy man he was, just because he had
such a splendid wife, and he talked every
man he met into a perfect frenzy Of envy
about her. Well, one winter morning,
when it was not too light to make one ap-
pear overly ostentatious, we sneaked into
that neighbours yard to steal q fence board
for kindling, and had to wait before we
could safely obtain it, until that mans
wife came out and sawed a couple Of arms
full of wood, shoveled out three paths, fed
and groomed the horse and cleaned out
the COW shed, and then when she went into
the house and we heard her call to her
husband that the sitting room was warm
enough for him to dress in if he wanted to
get up now, we were 80 amazed that we
forgot what we were waiting for, and went
back and kindled the fire with Q corn cob
and a pint of kerosene.
The above picture is only q fair sample
of a h~alf-dozen married men that we know
in Eureka.

FrighffuI

Last evening Chris Carpenter and Sam
Robinson, while driving a spirited horse
past the Eureka Consolidated works, the
the animal became frightened at the escape
pipe near the road, SHE'D, and anne near
upsetting the buggy and throwing the gen.
tlemen into q pond Of water. MIR. Car
penter then turned the horse, who was
running at full speed, towards the Lemon
mill, where two fences are placed across
the road, about 100 yards apart. The
whole outfit went through the first fence
without doing any injury, except tearing
down the fence. The second fence was too
strong. but the horse leaped it, and the
buggy lit on top OF mi Of the posts, up
side down, where it was left. Mr.. Car
penter was thrown out. but was not seri-
ously hurt. Mr.. Robinson was also thrown
out and had his shoulder dislocated.

A Natural Wonder.

The Carson Appeal says: A boiling
spring has recently been discovered q few
miles beyond Yank's station. The spring
gushes out Of the mountain side from un-
der a shelving rock, and the temperature
is 260 degrees. 1t forms a pool in the de-
preston OF the rocks a few feet below, and
into this a cold water stream runs. The
trout coming down the cold water stream
go plump into the hot water pool and are
beautifully cooked in q few minutes. This
is a fine place to camp out, for in the
morning the tourist simply reaches out in
the pool for his breakfast. Mr.. Lindsey,
OF the ~narrow-gauge road, vouches for the
above, and as he has lived at the Lake for
Ave years, he would hardly think Of exag-
gerating any of Its peculiarities.

A Circular Appealing for q Chance
to Try Again.

Mr.. M. p. Freeman, the unfortunate
Elko banker, has forwarded the following
circular to each OF his creditors:
To Ny Creditors: Before leaving Elko
l felt confident Of being able, upon my re-
turn, to pay you at least rs per cent. Of my
Indebtedness. In this / am now compelled
to admit that l am disappointed, and find
myself unable to do anything. All OF my
assets Of every kind have already been abb
sorbed. 1t is useless for me now to in
dulge in vain regrets for the past, nor is
there consolation to you in my saying that
my present condition is inconceivably
worse than yours. The past is gone and
cannot be recalled, and my condition is
the result Of my ambition, which over
leaped my discretion. But in this very
ambition, If combined with honesty Of pur-
pose, lies your hope for the f~uture-neither
l nor you can do more now. All / had is
gone, nothing is reserved upon my future
efforts is your sole reliance for q payment
of the debt due you. All I ask Of you is
to frown upon those efforts. Give me
an opportunity to prove to you the SINGER
ity OF my intentions. Do not attempt to
hamper me or Illustrate my designs, for,
by so doing, you will be simply working to
the injury Of your own interests, and de-
disinterested friends from giving
me that temporary assistance which I now
so much require in doing for you and my
self. Should fortune smile upon my en-
deavors, as she has in numerous instances
in times past. the result Of these endeavors
will be yours, not mine.
The Bank of California, my largest cred
itor, has said to me: go ahead, and do
the best you can for us; we shall trust to
you, throw no obstacle in your way, and
await the result" l ask this of you all.
/ might resort to proceedings in bank
ruptcy, and by that questionable means,
effect a legal cancellation Of all my obliga-
tons, but l have no desire to do 30. NY
intention is in due time to pay them, not
wipe them out with a sponge, and, God
willing, l will do it. Respectfully,
M. P. FREEMAN.

Denver and LeadvtiIe.

Mr.. B. F. Leete, of Reno, has just re-
turned from a trip to Colorado. The Ga
zette interviewed him, with the following
result: He says the reduction works at
Denver simply constitute an immense fire
assay, and all the ores are worked in that
way. The city of Denver is the Paris Of
America. There are brick houses enough
now being built to make q town like Reno.
Leadville is a city of 10000 people. The
ore bodies in sight measure up in the mil
lions. The deepest mine is 234 feet. All
the mines are frozen. II a man leaves a
drill in a hole where there is water when
he goes to dinner, he finds it frozen when
he gets back. There is no vegetation nor
timber except a tall, slim tamarack, which
grows sixty feet high, and is not over six
inches thick at the ground. The soil is
rich, but nothing can grow at such an ele-
walton.
