Nevada Cotton.

a circular emanating from the Inter-
national Cotton Exposition to be held
at Atlanta, Georgia, has reached the
Appeal. office, calling upon Nevada to
forward specimens of cotton raised
| within its borders. We might just as
| well admit now as at any time that the
cotton crop has been tritie backward
this year in Nevada. Backward rains,
early frosts and lack OF proper irri-
eating facilities and no cotton planted
all tends to reduce the crop. During
the past five years Nevada has almost
ceased to be a cotton producing State.
1t no longer exports cotton and has to
depend almost entirely on Pizen
Switch and the American Flat districts.
Besides this, we do not need cotton
here as the Eastern and Southern States.
The climate is remarkably healthy and
invigorating and at fifteen thousand
feet above the sea level the women
obtain that perfection of natural devel-
Opment which does away with the
necessity of a large cotton crop. OF
course some recent accessories from
Boston and Chicago still cling to the
old-establshed customs of the East and
pad their forms, partly from habit and
partly from necessity. We do not,
however, wish to vaunt over our sister
State, the fact is undeniable that here
and there are to be found those who
build up in front by artificial additions,
and rumor has it that padded hips are
not unknown in Reno, Eureka and
even at the capital. The demand,
however, from these sources are SO
light that cotton raising can never, by |
of the very nature Of things, be-
come recognized industry Of Nevada.

John Furlong, of this city, who has
recently returned from Wood River, is
about TO take his family to the new
district. He is very favorably i'm
pressed with its prospects and says
"the first prosPectors only did some
surface scratching, and finding that the
ore veins pinched out, came back and
said that the place was fraud. Now.
in reality, the veins do pinch out about
fifty feet from the surface just rs they
have described, but if you go another
fifty feet you take up the vein again
and it begins to widen. 1t will Sc
down to mere thread and then widen
to three or four feet. l will stake all
have that the country will turn out
all right. own an interest in IA mine
and we have got beyond the pinching
out point. The ledge widens continu-
ally as we go down and is well defined"
Mr.. Furlong took his celebrated bull
y
came away with some friends. \ few
days ago he received :. letter to the ef-
feet that the dog had fought Il match
with Boise City dog for 800 a side
and won the match after hari tusscl
of an hour and twenty minutes in which
twenty-five bouts We're scored. His
friends think that the dos will pan out
better than q mine and say that the
Nevada men in the district all backed
the sagebrush dog ana won heavily on
the result. II FurlOng can take few
dogs to Wood River he could probably
accumulate fortune and perhaps some
day represent the country in the U. s.
Senate.

THE PREsIDEnr SINKING.
The Doctors Give the Patient Blaine
St.ll ~ Hope.

/
EXECUTIVE MANSION, 1880 P. M
Attorney General MacVeagh authorizes
the statement that Vice President
Arthu: has not been telegraphed for,
and no decision to send for him has yet
been arrived at.
DR.. Bliss said to reporter Of the As
ISOLATED Press at noon that his belief is
that the President cannot recover. He
thinks, however, death will not occur
Immediately, and he may finger several
days.
DR.. Reyburn said at 10 o'clock that
there was no material change since the
issuing of the bulletins, but that the
PRECEDENT was very feeble and the hopes
entertained yesterday Of relief
through the snppuration of the inflamed
gland was less bright to-day. The fact
is, the President has been dying since
O'clock this morning. DR.. Power,
pastor of the Christian Church, has
been at the White House all the morn
ing and will not leave until the end.
Great excitement prevails on the
streets, and reports Of the Presidents
death are circulated hourly. Toadd to
the excitement, alarming rumors are in
circulation regarding organized boli IS #
men in the neighboring cities who are
banded together to come here and
lynch Guiteiu. It i; said the guards at
the Jail are in sympathy with them, ard
only await & favorable opportunity to
themselves murder Guiteau. General
Sherman, in conjunction with the Sec
retaries of War and State, however, is
taking every precaution to preserve the
peace.
$3.50 P. M.-Reports from the sick
roUm say there is no change in the Pres
ident's condition. The doctors continue
administering stimulants to prolong life.

WASHINGTON, IL P. M.-Blaine to

hopeful feeling tonight in regard to

STOCKS, TO.


| AkA 0OrtD OF AAmOrS hnu IhcOElcs
; Senator Fair and ex-senator Sharon
will be on the Comstock about Septem
Der Ist. Their joint appearance is sup
posed to mean stock boom. The all
is now thick with rumors and theories
The one that seems to have created the
most sensation is the APPEALS article
on the closing up of drifts with ore al
the end. 1t has been widely copied
and commented on and i good many
of the newspapers affect to discredit i,
altogether. The idea of Carson paper
knowing anything about the mines
which Virginia papers have not pub
lished seems quite absurd. The infor-
| nation contained in the APPEAL is
given exactly as 1t came to this Office
from gentleman, whom if we were al
lowed to name him, would be consid-
cred as coed authority. The Comstock
lode is to-day filed with men who are

in stocks and what these men bring to
the surface can be counted on. No
man with his senses about him will
deny that the insiders are making no
attempt to uncover an ore body. The
extent, depth and richness of the bo-
nanza WAS pretty definitely gagged at
least two years ago. The bonanza Or
gans have persistentiy given out that
no diamond drill has been used. The
drill has been actively at work. One
old drill was lying about the mine as a
blind and the other-brought to the
mine in sections-has penetrated into
every nook and corner Of the ore body.
The inside manipulators swear they
will "freeze out the Jews" before
the mine is opened. The rich
Jews of San Francisco hold con-
siderable of the stock. The Eureka
Leader gives the real reason of John
Mackay's return to Europe. He got
dispatch from Europe that there was a
hitch in the transfer of the Sutro tun-
mel to the Bonanza Firm and he went
back to see about it. It has been a
game of freeze out between the kings
of the ledge and the tunnel company.
The latter had dead thing on the col
lection of royalty for ore. The grant
by Congress doubled riveted the con-
tract. There was no escape. Those
the Gomstock proposed to
hoist no large amount of ore until they
could buy the tunnel. With no ore being
taken out the tunnel was nothing more
than ORA in pipe. With the tunnel in
their hands the Bonanza firm will find ore
fast enough. They will control the
tnnnel this Fall.
