The Insane ASYLUM.

The Tribune is of the opinion
that Sutro would be an excel
lent place for the Insane Asylum
after it is moved from Reno.
Sutro has the advantage Of
more uniform climate than any
town in the State. The i'm
mense amount Of warm water,
100000 gallons daily, which
flows from the SutrO tunnel is
causing q tremendous amount
Of vegetation in Sutro and is
materially affecting the temper
AZURE. In the Summer tn e
evaporation of the water IS a
check against heat Of the atmos-
phere and returns in gentle
rains. In the Winter the pro-
tected location and the heated
waters of the tunnel have a good
effect. Insane patients require
above everything else a good,
healthful locality, and it is GER
tainly found there. The Asylum
cannot remain in Reno without
jeopardizing the lives and reason
of the inmates and the State can
not afford to allow any mercen-
airy consideration to govern
them in the matter. 1t is not a
question Of expense, but of hui
mainly.

The Cheek Of a German Writer

The Cheek Of a German Writer.
The most delightful form of
literary fiattery is plagiarism, as
its sincerity cannot be ques-
toned. There appeared in the
Enterprise of March 1873, a fam
ciful sketch on the transmuta--
ton Of base metals into gold, by
Otto Greenwood, Of the q. S.
Mint, Carson. There recently
appeared in the Volks Zeit,Hag, a
paper published in Vienna,
Austria, the same story rerdotin'
with the exception of changing
the locality Of the scene, and
signed Baron Won Weimar.
The story is also announced in
the editorial as a treat i" from
the pen of the rising German
novelist" This German novel;
ist is probably training to edit
the humorous department Of the
Post.

More Territory for Nevada.

T. 3. Rowland, member of the
California Legislature from Ell
Dorado county, was in the city
yesterday. He says that bill
will be introduced in the Legis-
lature there at the coming session
to annex Lake Valley, precinct
FL Dorado county, to Nevada.
1t would be matter of great
convenience to the people OF
that section to have this change
made. 1t requires a journey Of
$50 miles to go from Lake
Valley to the county seat Of Ell
Dorado county, while it is only
81 miles from the same point to
the Capital of Nevada. Alpine
and Mono counties are also
badly situated as regards geog-
raphy and residents of both the
counties named are obliged to
make half the tour Of Nevada by
rail in order to get to the Cap
ital of their own State.

County Commissioner, which he
was elected to fill until January
LIST, 1885. He has been pur-
chasing property in Humboldt

quires his personal attention,
and he resigned the Office of
County Commissioner. Cover
nor kinkead has appointed A.
Nichols of Austin to fill the I'M
expired term of MIR. Curtis.

Starting An Industry

Some years ago the APPEAL
called attention to the practi-
cability of raising ostriches upon
the arid deserts of Arizona, Ne
vada and New Mexico. No one
paid any attention to the sug-
gestiOn, and finally the APPEAL
printed a colossal yarn made of
whole cloth, to the effect that
there was a thriving ostrich
farm a few miles back of Carson.
1t was copied all over the coast,
and men Of capital began to
argue that if there was a paying
ostrich farm in Nevada, why
was there not money in it else
where: and some California
capitalists sent to Africa for
some birds. They invested
nearly $4,000 in the scheme
and now are meeting with splen-
did success, as the birds live
mostly on weeds and gravel and
yield $50 Worth Of feathers
year. Senator Jones informed
an APPEAL representative a
fe" d,ys ago that he had also
go''t INTO the ostrich business
with Il ,ompany which had pur-
chased a large tract of arid land
IN Arizona as a range for the
birds, and he felt confident of
realizing handsomely on his in
vestment. The APPEAL may
fairly claim the credit of giving
the ostrich industry a big boom
on this coast.

Free Papers.

The Librarian of the WOman's
Temperance and Free Public
Library Union and Reform Club,
writes to the APPEAL for free
copy Of the paper to be mailed
regularly to the address Of the
Club. Sore years ago the AP-
PEAL had quite list Of sub
scribers in Reno and when "a
similar request was made we
sent the paper to the club room,
and presently several Of our
Reno subscribers discontinued
the APPEAL on the grounds
that they could get it free at
the Public Library. Thus in
our commendable attempts to
further the cause of temperance
and elevate the Reno masses,
we lost nearly 800. In spite of
all this we shall send a free copy
of the APPEAL to the Temper
ance Union, realizing as we do
that the mission of Nevada
editor is, pay cash for paper,
ink and type by the wholesale,
and retail it out for nothing.
This is the way the bloated
newspaper publishers get rich in
this country. From this time on
delinquent subscribers in Reno
who do not get the APPEAL are
respectfully referred to the
Temperance Reading, Rooms.
It suits Us Il good deal better to
furnish one reading room with a
paper with the understanding
that it is free than to send it to
numbers of people who sub
scribe with the idea of getting
it on the same terms, but are
ashamed to say so.

Treasurer Norton of Washoe

amount of $4,000. The county
brought suit some two or three
years ago 70 recover the amount
from his bondsmen. The suit
was not pressed to trial and last
week the bondsmen rendered
the board of Commissioners ST.
600 as full payment Of the
amount for which they are re-
sponsible. The Commissioners
accepted the tender and re-
leased the bondsmen from their
