porter interviewed Senator Jones yes
terday, who said: Nevada is in pros
porous condition. There is an Impress
ion in the east that our state govern
ment is SO expensive that we think Of
abandoning it and becoming a territory
again. This is not the case; our people
do no not know that they have gov
erment. That is, they have not felt it
burdensome atall. Our system of tax
alton is such that the poor people do
not feel the taxes. We are taxed ac-
cording to our incomes; mine is taxed
for what it produces, SO that it pays
taxes as part Of expenses, and compara-
lively speaking, the burden is not felt.
In the east taxes cannot be levied in
that way, because there are too many
rich men. In Nevada there are only a

Remedy for Hard Times.

Stop spendingso much ON fine clothes,
rich food and style. Buy good healthy
food, cheaper and better clothing; get
more real and substantial things of
life every way, and especially stop the
foolish habit of running after expen-
sive quack doctors or using so much of
the vile humbug> medicine that does
you only harm and makes the proprie-

times and good health. Try it once.

Parnell. Biggar and HcaIey VIII Re-
turn to England

Paris, Feb. 15.-When Parnell re-
turned here from Frankfort he heard
rumors that his absence from London
was due to fear of being arrested. A
delegate from the last meeting of the
land league waited on Parnell with a
resolution that he should 60 to Amer
lea, but he decided to remain on the
continent to complete arrangements in
connection with the league, in conse-
quence Of its becoming known to him.
self and friends that communications
addressed to him and them had been
tampered with by the government.
The leaguers. are convinced that their
letters were tampered with as long ago
as December, and the utmost aution
has since been used. He denied that
any compromising statement had been
written, but it is thought necessary to
remove the headquarters of the league
to Paris. Parnell will start for Eng
land in a few days. Brennan has been
instructed to deposit all the documents
of the league in place of security.
All communications between Parnell
and his friends in England is carried
on by courier. Biggar and Healey have
returned to London.

Meeting of the Land League Exccu-
tive Committee In Paris.

New York, Feb. 15.-The Irish
World has the following P aris special:
There was a full meeting of the land
league executive committee in counsel
to day to consult as to future actions !;
Parnell presided. Arrangements were
made to carry on the work of the land
leage in all eventualities. There will
be no finching. The organization in
Ireland is well nigh perfect, and the
people are of one mind and spirit. Put
no faith in the ridiculous ard malicious
rumors in circulation in the English
papers, and which may be telegraphed
to America concerning the officers of
the league. Those stories are manu-
factured for purpose. Parnell returns
to parliament to oppose the passage of
the arms bill; thence he will proceed to
Ireland. Dillon replaces Davitt. Nu-
merous meetings are now being held in
Ireland to denounce the conduct of the
government and protest against coer-
cion. The government is committing
blunder on blunder, and we feel conf
dent the coercion bill when passed, will
fail of its purpose.

Parneil Ready to Account for the
Funds,

London, Feb. l5.-The Times says:
At meeting of the executive officers
of the land league in Paris on Sunday
last, Parnell stated that the funding of
10000 of the leagues money had final
ly been arranged. He said manifesto
would be issued explaining everything
that been done in regard to the funds
to the branches of the league, which
will be published soon after his return
to Ircland. 1t was also intended, he
said, that Immediately after the passage
of the coercion bill the Irish members
of parliament should hold conference
in Dublin. They would then place
themselves at the head of the people,
thus meeting the blow the government
is aiming at the organization.
