Jones PLAYS Wiah q Reporte!

u ONES EAdyB WIFI hcpOElcE.
New York, 14.-Tbe Tribune inter-
viewed Senator Jones, yesterday, who
said: Nevada ia in prosperous condi-
ton. There is an impression 10 the esst
that our state government is so expensive
that we think Of abandoning it and
becoming territory again. This was
not the case. Our people do not know
that they have government; that is,
they have not felt it burdensome at all.
Our system of taxation is such that the
poor people do not feel the taxes. We
are taxed according to our incomes. A
mine is taxed for what it produces, so
that it pays taxes as part of the expenses,
and comparatively speaking the burden
is not felt. In the east taxes cannot be
levied in thst way, because there are too
many rich men. In Nevada there are
only few rich men, and they cannot do
much, consequently when lode gives
out liks the Comstock, the revenue OF
gov eminent falls off. Now, what under
such circumstances, does the legislature
do? 1t goes to work and cuts down
salaries and expenses, right and left, to
make the liabilities less than the receipts.
We have 10 debt, and our mines are
doing we'll, there being no state or terri
tory in the Union where mining is car
ried on 80 scientifically and systensti-
cally as it is in Nevada. The ides that
we desirs 10 be annexed to California or
return to territorial government is
absurd.

London, l5.-The bill for the protec-
ton Of persons and property, in Ireland,
cont. ues TO make very slow progress in
the House of commons, but so far nearly
ali amendments tending TO limit its
scope have been rejected by ore over
WhelminE majority. This was the case
last night with the amendments TO strike
out the words "wherever the offense is
Committed" the prom tiers Of which
pointed out that as the bill st present
stands, u man will be liable to arrest on
suspicion ofhaving committed or melted
to of nee, even 10 England orthe United
Staies.
Forster, chief secretary of Ireland,
during the debate, made the definite state
ment that advice TO tenants not 10 pay
rent. or only pay Griffith's valustion,
would not be deemed sufficient for action,
but indictments TO acts of violence would
be so regarded. There still remain to be
considered about eighty amendments on
notice papers. Irish members are
steadily obstructing the progress Of the
bill in the committee.
The Times says: DispAtch measures in
urgency, are not to be easily distinguished
from the leisurely movement of ordinary
bills in the committee.

the intention of the Union Pacific to get

line, it is claimed. will be 800 miles
shorter to Portland, Oregon, takig Chi
cago as the starting point, than the
Northern p cifc. The new line will
start from Granger and run north west to
connect with the Utah and Northern,
also constructed By the Union

The Produce Corner.

Chicago, 15.-With regard to the
strong tone in provisions. all are agreed
that their is corner. Some dealers say
there is no Clique Of rich men who are
bull gthem, but that the whole rank
and file Of speculative provision men are
confident of rise, and are buying freely;
that it is not the heavy dealers who sre
getting rich this time, but the crowd. 1t
is believed, however, that prices are get
ting to dangerous height, being about
the same as during ArmOur's corner last
year. The sales to-day were higher than
yesterday, although the market has been
fuetusting and nervous. Every thing
now depands on the developments as 10
the hog and grain crops. Il is held by
some commission men that both are
sh orter than heretofore There is con-
siderable excitement and interest regard
ing the latter.

The Providence Press says: The re-
port Of the treasury investigation contains
nothing that was not published months
ago. 1t simply shows that certain snb-
ordinates who had entrusted to them the
expenditure of monies without the care
full checks that should be placed upon all
disbursing officers. did not lay them out
economically, and covered some of their
expenditures by false entries. The guilty
men have long ago been discharged from
the service. and the tradesmen who over
charged the government have been forced
to refund the money they wroncfully OBJ
tanned There is not. and never has been.
any evidence that Secretary Sherman had
a suspicion Of these irregularities. and
his whole political career is an argument
to prove that he would have been most
unrelenting in his punishment of the gull
ty men. The system under which the
payments were made was bad one, in
herited from former administrations. and
has already been reformed
