there's . will there's . way. and in some
respects the new Constitution II better
than the old. In 80 far a. II affected
and surtailsd the sphere Of the stock

removal or transfer Of . portion OF the
base Of operations in that line to more
eligible fields. II mine arrangements.
especially OF mines on the Comstock,
find the operations Of the new oonsttu.
ton trosblssomely detrimental. they can
easily avoid all further difficulty In that
line by simply disincorporating and
