GARFIEED-S RATIFICATION.
Last Nights Gathering of the Re
publican Clans.

About dark Last night a couple Of camp
fires were started on Main street, and one
in front Of Eureka Hall. The Eureka
Brass Band started in at fire No. /, marched
to the flagstaff, thence easterly to Buel
street; thence southerly as far as Eureka
Hall, where another signal light was burn
ing. Here a stand was made and the ex-
eellent music discoursed by the band drew
quite a crowd. At the cali, all hands
passed inside the hall (free) and occupied
two thirds Of the seats.
Col. Sabin was elected Chairman, and
Major Long, Secretary. Hon. Thomas
Wren took the stand and talked emphati-
eally for thirty minutes
Hon. w. W. Bishop was next called, and
in his characteristic strain elected much
applause.
Mr.. Murphy, of Ruby Hill, was next
called on for a speech. He said he en-
dorsed all that had been said before to the
audience and sat down.
George r. Almond answered to re-
peated calls. by a lengthy, prosy speech.
Loud cries of John Baker" brought
that worthy from the audience to the stage,
the band playing, 'See, the C%onquering
Hero Comes" John said the Democratic
party was ungrateful-and that was about
all he did say. The crowd cheered Justify.
Upon the stand were Hon. Thos. Wren,
Col. Sabin, John Tore, Jim Anderson,
Tommy Douglas, Pete Caravan, and the
music.
There was no opposition to the motion

A Grand Celebration Day ON Mon.
day, July Educational salute at
Daylight.

Daylight.
The patriots of Eureka, Ruby Hill and
vicinity are smelling powder, and the
clans are gathering at the acknowledged
headquarters of Eastern Nevada. Already
our hotels are crowded with strangers,
many coming from a hundred miles away.
The streets are lined with evergreen
trees, and it was an occasion of remark
from a granger who had never visited Eu-
reka before, as he looked down Main street
last evening and saw the full line OF pines
upon either side: always had an idea
that Eureka was located in a sort Of bar
rem desolate locality. The town looks like
Sacramento in the month Of May" Across
the streets are stringers bearing the Ma
tional colors, and from the principal
blocks tioat the flags Of many nations
meath the stars and stripes. Our business
men are getting the fever, and are decorat-
ing in a manner never known before.
CHAINS Of evergreens are swung from cor
ner to corner on the ceilings Of business
houses and throughout the habitations OF
the nabobs of Mob Hill; and ''gordian"
knots, crowned with native and California
boquets, are the connecting links between
house and house on this the 104th annl-
versary OF our National Independence.
Those who have kicked" are falling
into line, as though a new leader had
arisen. The military, civic and fire organ
izations are united. at least, to join hands
in the Parade ON the fifth, and to help
along the proceedings at the Hall. There
is not a dissenting voice from those ap-
pointed as orator, reader, etc.
The Finance Committee have reported a
good fund of coin in store to carry the
affair through in a betting manner.
The Committee on Decoration have sub
mitted the plans Of arranging the speak
er's stand, and its decorative appearance
will catch the eye Of all. In fact, the en-
tire Hall will be prpfusely supplied with
evergreens and boquets.
The Committee ON Music report that
three brass bands will participate, and 1t
is safe TO surmise they are the Centennials,
the Union and Bureaus own.
The artillery are ordered to turn their
guns loose, aud Captain Beatty will see
that the National Guard belch volley after
volley in honor Of the OCCASION.
A committee. consisting of every citizen
and visitor in Eureka, is appointed on fire.
works.
Eureka, always loyal and patriotic, has
not proved ht rself so demonstrative and
noisy as other places in Nevada, upon
every recurrence Of our National birthday.
but she stands squarely upon the true
principles, aud when once thoroughly
aroused, can celebrate as loudly as any OF
them, and will do so tomorrow.
For parade the different organizations
form in front Of the Courthouse, and the
line OF march Will be upon the principal
streets. For the exercises at Eureka Hall,

A correspondent OF the White Pine News.
writing from Osceola, says The mill is
now running in good shape, and is a great
relief to the monotony which prevailed
here while 1t was shut down. The mines
are developing well. and will-we have
faith finally prove to be valuable proper
ties. as our milling facilities are increased
and improved. The recent striking of the
north and south channel. in our placer
grounds. has caused quite a rush among
thep placer miners, and about 500 acres Of
ground have already been located upon the
supposed course OF the channel, and the
parties making such locations feel very
confident Of the value OF their ground, and
every one in our camp hopes that these To-
Gators may soon realize their most s~anguine
expectations. I learn that several Of our
mines are TO be incorporated.
