years The bullion of the Bonanza firm

elected him.
In Judge Rives decision in the Albion
case is the following:
A cert,in portion of the great mineral
belt or zone on Ruby Hill was reserved
from sale by the United States Govern
ment. The St George mining claim was
on such p"rtion of the great belt or zone !;
therefore, the St George mining claim was
reserved from sale, and the patent issued
by the Government for it was void.
And also this:
The same portion of the same great min
eral belt or zone on Ruby Hill vas reserved
from sale by the United States Government,
as above The Victoria c!a N elonging to
the same party as the st. George mining
claim, and junior in location and applica-
Son thereto, was located on same portion
of same great belt or zone as the st.
George therefore that same portion of the
great belt or zone which was covered by
Victoria claim was not reserved from sale,
and the patent for it is dec ared valid.
To make these two clauses balance you
add the amount sold by The insiders aud
divide the present price of Albion plus the
assessment.
Charles F. Croker, President of the
Southern Pacific Railroad, swore in his re
turn to the Assessor that the railroad Was
worth but $4,000 per mile. The Tomb
stone Nugget figures up that steel rails are
quoted at $50 ton. Each yard of such
rail weighs abou. 60 pounds. There are
$3.50 yards of rail to each mile of track,
making 1O5 6 tons of rail to the mile. At
S53 per ton, the lowest raie. the value per
mile would be SIS, 500 SO for raj s alone In
addition TO this must be added the cost of
ties, fish plat's spii e,, switches, culver.s,
cattle guards, entertainments, station houses
and rolling stock. TIE Nuggett should not
get excited over thing of this kind In
making the return Mr.. Csocker is simply
TO lowing an old established rule in Cali
fornins. The oath is merely q form.
Billy Emerson, the minstrel, has been
arrested for tr, ing TO avoid his ~ife's debts
She bought 81 600 worth Of finery at San
Francisco furnishing house and Billy re-
fused to pay the bills, putting his diamonds
ont of the way to avoid the collector. EN-
erson's earnings for years past have been
from 5000 to $500 week and sometimes
more. yet he has never paid bill if he
could possible avoid it Yet this vulgar
ignorant niger singer has been petted by
the public and fashionable society has
rushed to hear his course jokes while first
class Shakespearian actors cannot pay ex-
penses That such man shon'd have two
suits of cluthes, much less Sc 600 worth of
diamonds. is the saddest possible comment
in the intelligence of the American people. |
The Board of County Commissioners of
Eureka County have adopted a singular
string of resolutions, holding that the salary
law is ruinous in its operation, and a-kng
the Governor to call an extra session of the |
Legislature to repeal it. The remedy they |
propose is worse than the disc .se. The |
saving that might be worked in county ex-
penditures by the abrogation of the law
would be more than offset by increased |
revenue required by the State tc cover the |
cost of an extra session. An extra session |
could not be called with propriety for the
purpose of accommodating few Eureka
Office holders.
