Minneapolis Republicans have been very
unfortunate in their selection of members of
Congress, none of them have redounded to
the credit of the people of the Third con-
gressional district. The notorious Bill King
secured his election by infamous ways and
means. Now comes Bill Washburn (bribe
giver) who is likely to be expelled from his
seat in Congress for bribery and corruption.

Minneapolis is unfortunate in its Con-
gressmen. Bill King, for obvious reasons,
secreted himself in Canada during his in
cumbency of the office, and now Washburn,
after spending $4,000 in the campaign,
will probably be returned as bad egg to his
constituents. Bribery did it. The next
time the Republicans of Minneapolis seek q
Representative in Congress, they had better
try an honest man.

California Capital Going to New
York.

The Sacramento Bee does not seem to
care that certain California capitalists are
pulling up stakes and going to New York.
The Bee treats the exodus as follows:
The New York Times has q column on
the movements OF California capitalists, to
show how capital is leaving this State and
fiocking to New York, but we need not be
alarmed, for, if it is true, the capital is Of
that class which has lone the State much
harm and but little if any good. 1t is Of
that class which has built palaces on Pine
and Montgomery streets, and brought ruin
ON hundreds OF homes. 1t is of that class
which has benefited the few and robbed the
many. 1t is of that class which has done
much to retard true progress in this State.
1t is OF that class which has infatuated our
people with a species of gambling worse
than can be found at the faro table. and
has helped to fill suicidal graves. This is
the capital which, the Times declares. is
leaving us and focking Eastward, there to
carry on the same pernicious business it
was here engaged in. 1t proposes to carry
on a Mining Stock Exchange and, in con
nection with that a bank where money will
be loaned upon stocks. 1t proposes to
control at New York the mines of the
Pacific Coast, to use them in fact merely
as puppets in their own hands. If they
have left, are leaving and will leave Cali
fornia, their absence will be as great a
blessing as their presence has been a curse.
Let them go and welcome.

Two New Companies Organized At
Rattle Mountain Yesterday.

1t would appear that the gentlemen who
constructed the Nevada Central Railroad
have determined to build other roads in this
State. Battle Mountain may yet become
a very important railroad center. Two
new companies were organized there yes
terday. The promoters nave proven them
selves men Of great enterprise and push.
The following special dispatch to the SEN
TINEL explains itself
BATTLE MOUNTAIN, Feb. 25.-The Ne
yada Northern Railroad Company organ
lied to-day, to build a railroad from Battle
Mountain to Oregon and Idaho, with Rob-
ert l.. s. Hall, President, and Lyman
Bridges, Chief Engineer. This railway
will pass through some OF the richest min
ing districts and a good agricultural
country.
The Nevada Southern Railroad was or
ganized to-day, to build south of Austin,
to Grantsville, Columbus and Silver Peak,
with General James II. Ledlie, President;
Robert l.. Hall, Treasurer, and Lyman
Bridges, Chief Engineer. This will form
an important link in the line from the
Colorado to the Columbia.

EUREKA's FIRST PATRIOT.


Colonel Canavan's Scheme for the
PuriGcatiOn of Politics.
Under this double header the Virginia
Chronicle devotes SOME space to Colonel
Caravan. We fear the Colonel has been
giving the Chronicle man taffy. That
journal has this to say about him:
P. P. Canavan, the modest Eurekan,
whose initials stand for Purely Patriotic,
says he has no choice for President except
the peoples choice. OF course he may
have his likings for certain men, but he is
willing to sink all personal considerations
in the discussion of national affairs. He
believes in the good sense of the American
people, and believes that as long as their
voice can be heard in our Government
everything will be well with the country.
He is bitterly opposed to anything which
looks like taking snap judgment upon the
dear people, and will in no case sanction
anything like jobbery or slate-making in
politics. Further, he does not favor star
chamber caucuses or lobbying Of any kind.
Mr.. Caravan will return to his home in
Eureka in a day or two. The reporter was
anxious to get Mr.. Caravans views upon
the best method OF Christianizing the
Chinese, but he declined to speak on the
subject. limiting that his plans in that di-
rection were not yet ripe.
Mr.. Canavan is said TO have a scheme for
preventing bribery at elections and the
purchase of legislators. There is no man
in the State who has more actively striven
to break up both these crying evils.
Mr.. Canavan left on the train this after
noon for Carson. He travels with his
wings in a Saratoga trunk.

Its Rumored Restoration to the
JeWs.

80 M
Jews.
The London Spectator is informed that
an old project had recently been revived at
Constantinople, and that the Porte, de-
spairing of raising money in an ordinary
way, had offered to sell Palestine to the
Jewish Alliance-of course for cash down
and to allow the restoration Of the Jews
as a people to their own land. The coun-
try world be declared a principality, with
a Jewish Prince or President, guaranteed
against Interference so long as a fixed
tribute was regularly paid. We did not,
and we do not believe the story, which
would be most unacceptable to the relig-
ious party among Mohammedans, and
probably ives its origin to the hopefulness
of some students of prophecy among our
selves; but it is constantly revived, and
most Englishmen seem unaware of the
difficulties in the way of such a project.
They would have little motive in going to
Judea, where there are no cities, nc bust
ness, and no attraction of climate for them;
and even if a strong. religious or historic
impulse drew them there, they would find
endless difficulties. We suppose a govern
ment could be organized, though it is re-
markable that the nation has no great
family in its midst universally accepted as
its representative house; and no aristocracy
except the reputed descendants of the
active section of the Levites. The two
great houses of the Jews, in the political
sense-the house of David and the Asmo-
neans-have persisted utterly, and the last
Prince of the captivity, who was by uni
versal tradition Hebrew, and we think, by
the evidence of the royal line, dying at
Cadiz in the sixteenth century; and perse-
cution TO a great extent wore down all
distinctions Of grade, though Jewish fam
lilies once great in Spain do, we believe,
exist. Still, a government could be formed,
but the difficulty would be a people. Judea
is a country which might be prosperous,
beautiful and fertile, if it were Improved"
for half a century-that is. if the hills were
replanted, if the water supply were renewed
and if the soil were resolutely cultivated
and MANFRED. They might obtain Arab
help, and gradually extend themselves, but
in the existing circumstances of the world
a Jewish kingdom or republic on the south
eastern shore of the Mediterranean, with
the desert behind it, and no carrying trade
for that trade will go by sea if the Duke
Of Sutherland builds railways from now
till A. d. 1000, would be a rather feeble
and poverty stricken affair, not half SO
attractive to the community as the great
cities which the northern barbarians, who
were savages when the Maccabes were en-
couraging learning, have built up in the
West. We fear the Jews of England will
prefer London, even this weather, to the
delicious sky of Syria, and that it will not
be given to this age, which has seen so
many nations rise and fall, to witness the
restoration of the Jews TO Palestine, and
the renewal Of the daily sacrifice on Mount
Moriah.

The Gunnison country, in Colorado, is
attracting attention just now, and in order
to post the readers Of the SENTINEL on this
region, we give some extracts from a letter
written to the New York Evening Mail.
The term "Gunnison country" is used
in a vague and indefinite manner. II con-
fined to the county bearing the name Of
Gunnison, there is included a tract Of land
about 100 miles north and south, by 100
miles east and west. In this section are
found Roaring Fork, Pitkin, lin Cup,
Gothic and Ruby camps. Among these
camps, the mines Of greatest promise seem
to be in
RUBY CAMP.
Upon this locality interest and attention
are now fixed. A great influx of ardent
prospectors will occur as soon as the snow
begins to melt. One old ~prospector has
made the camp through terrible snow
storms and returned alive, having lost one
of his mules on the journey out another
was frozen to death on his returning. The
first miner, who is we'll known to Colora-
dians, was determined to secure a certain
prospect and did SO, although at this sea-
son, only at the risk of his life. Reaching
the camp, where about fifty OF the old pio-
neers of last season are living and Drawing
the storms of an exceptional winter, he
fought his way to the spot known to him,
and shoveling through eight feet of snow,
found his mineral, traced his vein, run his
lines, located his monuments and posted
his claim papers by inserting them in a
tomato can, covered it securely with rock
and stones, and then returned to c~iviliza-
ton to await the approach of spring.
His journey was
A vENTURsoME ONE,
and nearly cost him his life. He Travelled
the last 20 miles on snow shoes. Provision
in Ruby commands so cents per pound for
packing from Gunnison City, % miles dis
tant, and few dare undertake the journey
even at these figures. Strange to say that
in view of these dangers prospectors are
ventnrins their lives on snow shoes to this
camp. During the last week of January
many reached it daily to chance the fate Of
waiting till spring, in order to be the first
to make locations.
The veins in Ruby are nearly all true fis-
sures. They bear gold and silver, while
brittle and ruby silver are the characters
tic ores.
The ore runs $50 and 800 per ton, and
is remarkable for its uniform character,
needing little or no sorting. 1t shows a
very fine high grade galena, carrying fully
so to 60 per cent. lead. This will come
great demand as the camp is devel-
oped, in the smelling of more refractory
ores.
