ranch, about is miles south Of town. yes

and got two or three ~able-bodied men to
keep him from going to sleep. These
watchers were obliged to whip him on the
naked skin until II was disoolored to pre-
vent him from lying down and going into
a sleep which would certainly result in
death. Late in the afternoon he recovered
from the stupor caused by the deadly
drug, and R. A. Pryor, who was attending
him. found q paper in his stocking on

PIoCHE PICKINGs.
The Record of q Week as Recorded
I'm the ssRecOrdss of Last Saturday.

The railroad surveyors who went to
Crystal Springs are all pushing ahead with
their work. The party surveying from
Crystal Springs eastward were down at
Panaca last Monday. The survey runs
about three miles south Of Panaca. This
party is surveying toward Iron City, Utah,
and are not going to survey through the
Desert Station route, as we published some
time ago.. The party engaged in surveying
to the west, according to the latest report,
have nearly completed the survey through
what is called TEN Pahute Valley. The
third company Of surveyors have their
faces turned towards the south, and are
probably making for the Needles" on
the Colorado. 1t is impossible to learn
anything from the surveyors in regard to
their work, as they are very r~eticent in re-
gard to this subject in fact, appear to
know nothing.
News reached Phoebe last Monday from
Eldorado Canyon that R. p. Andrews,
foreman of the Southwestern Company's
mines at that place died suddenly on Aug.
25, by suffocation, while attempting to
rescue a miner from that fate. He was q
native Of Clinton, Vermillion county, In
diana, and was IS years Of age. During
the rebellion he was a member OF the
Twelfth Wisconsin. Regiment. Mr.. An
drews leaves o wife, a married daughter, a
young daughter, aged II, and a son, aged
IA, in Phoebe, to mourn his loss.

An Important Suit BrOught1n Nye
County.

County.
The Salary law seems to be giving trou-
BILE in Nye County. The Courier has the
following recount of the commencement
OF a suit about it: GA suit was instituted
during the week against the Commission
ers of Nye County, County Auditor and
County Treasurer, by NJ. w. Esser, Of the
firm Of Ernst & Esser of Belmont. A tenn
porary injunction and order to show cause
why it should not continue, and an order
was issued restraining the above named
officers from ordering or transferring any
moneys at present in the General Fund OF
Nye County, or that may hereafter come
into said fund, to the Officers Salary Fund
OF said county, until a final hearing and
decision is had. This will bring,what bids
fair to be, o vexed question fairly before
the Court. The dealers in county scrip,

ty being in a~rrears) to have all moneys
coming into said General Fund retained

ton OF certificates of indebtedness in their
regular order, as there is money in said
fund to redeem the same the officers on
the other hand claiming. under the pro-
visions Of the Salary law enacted by the
Legislature of 1879 and 1881, the right to
transfer from said General Fund Of the
county sufficient of the moneys coming
into said General Fund from time to time.
to make up the deficiency due on their sal
aries, which are now in arrears over four
months of the present year. This is one
Of the hardships attendant on the passage
Of the Salary law, for which no adequate
provision has been made in the statutes.
The order of the Court restraints the Au-
ditor from making any payment from the
General Fund On any allowances against
said fund until further order Of the Court.
This is a just order for both parties. The
case is set for hearing Nov. 4.

KICKING BATON ROUGE.

In blaming Baton Rouge, for the
encouragement citizens have given
to the NO. Pacific Railway Company,
to build q branch line that will give
quick, cheap and regular transperta-
ton to the people, when travelling to
and from their State Capital, the Sugar
Planter speaks thus, alludiug to tho
reluctance exhited by many Of the cit
liens of Baton Rouge, about the time
that the fifty thousand dollars were
subscribed by this city towards build
Ing the Baton Ronge, Crosse Tete and
Opelousas Railroad:
The road was opened and the result
to Baton Rouge was almost unprccc-
denied. Those who knew her before
this road was built and knew berafter
it was completed, could scarcely re-
cognize the changes effected in all bu-
siness departments. And this same
road never paid one dollar into the
treasury of the parish that mainly
built it, while on the wholeit has been
vaIucIess to the people of the parish.
Bat to come to the main point in
our little story: Fifty thousand dol
lars in interest bearing bonds were is
sued by the city of Baton Rouge which
have never been paid to this day
and inquisitive people ask why not
since the people of that city received
all the benefits for which they were
issuedP Many of our old fogy citi-
zens remember these little freaks OF
their friends over the river end muse
accordingly. In double sense, who
were then and who are the obstruction
lists now
In Justice to our citizens we would
say that the Sugar Planters assertion,
is not sustained by facts, in many par
ticulars. For instance, he says, "that
thes5O, 600 in interest bearing bonds is.
