Natures Housekeeping.

Nature has many of what we are
accustomed to call the small econo-
mics of life. She does nothing with
out purpose, and she has a horror
Of waste. In the world of living be-
ings, particularly, is she careful of
her materials. 1t is no easy lift to
bring matter up to the organic level.
She has to call in the sun to her as
sistance, and get their united Shout
ders under the load, ere it can be
raised to the required height; and
she can not afford to let it down
again while there is any pitch left
in it.
It is interesting to follow her
through this portion of her house
keeping, and watch the care with
which she gets all the life-course
possible out of her organic stock in
trade, letting not crumb go to
waste. She invites a guest with d
special appetite for every morsel-
guests furnished with teeth to rend,
nip, and gnaw, claws to tear, augers
and chisels to bore and gouge, saws,
drills, punches, and suction-tubes-
that no fragment of the feast shall
be left on the unswept tables.
There are guests of every shape,
size and description, alike only in
the one particular of being normally
hungry. Like the sitters-down at a
public dinner, they all seem to have
been saving up appetite for the oc-
casion. Some there are, indeed, of
such omniYerous tastes that we
would be quite willing to have them
left out from the general invitation.
But this is not Dame Natures way.
Every crum0 must be eaten; and
we know little Of her facility Of in
Yenti0n if we imagine that she
can not find tooth for every hard
She is ready for any such
and you will be hound
to find some queer creature gnawing
away at the indigestible fragment
with as much Zest as if it were a dish
fit for king
Let us take . sly glance in at Ma
lures kitchen and watch her guests
at their meal. We shall not call it
breakfast, dinner, supper, or lunch,
for there is no such formal div sion.
1t Is whole-day feast anda whole
night feast, too, for that matter. The
tables are ALWAYS spread, the guests
always hungry; they crowd in from
and by-ways; always one
ready to take up every vacanl knife,
fork, and spoon; or to plunge in
with fingers, teeth, and claws,in the
rue primative fashion.-PopulGr |

COUNTY PLATFORlI.

ReS0{red, That the clear and
able exposition of the principles
of Nevada Repuhlicanism as
enunciated in the Platform and
Resolutions held at the late
Republican Convention at Reno
IS hereby endorsed by this Con-
yentiOn.
Resolced, That this Convention
pledges its nominees to a rigid
enconomy in the administra-
ton of county affairs, in the i'll
terest of the taxpayers and
business men Of Ormsby county.
Resolred, That the suspicious
attitude of the Democracy upon
the question of public schools
meets with the hearty disap-
prevail of all people, irrespective
Of party, who are interested in
popular education.
Resolred, That the nominees
Of this Convention on the Legis-
iative ticket be pledged against
the form of railroad extortion
practiced by the Central Pacific
Railroad Company known as
s1back freight" by which certain
freight landed in Reno is
charged for as if it was carried
TO Sacramento and return,
thereby discriminating against
Nevada and its business. i
Res0tved, That we favor the
passage of bill by which
State Board of Equalization
may be provided for the pur-t
pose of equalizing taxation
upon all property within the
State. The duties to be per-
formed without compensation
by such State officers as the Leg

PeSolred, That the honor and
glorv of the Republic, its con
tiuuad peace, prosperity and
progress will be best served by
the pelpetuation and continued
success of the Republican party.
We declare our fidelity to its
principles as expressed in the
Chicago platform Of $50, and As
further embodied in It's great
history from its Organization 10
the present time.
Reso'red, That in the tragic
death Of President Garfield our
country has suffered deplorable
loss, and the Republican party
mOurns for one who consecrated
noble and heroic life to the
vindication of its great purposes.
Reso5red, That We have faith
in the prudent and sagacious
administration Of President
Arthur and believe it viii result
in promoting the best interests
of the country.
Resolced, That the presence
in our midst of q servile race of
aliens, incapable Of assimilating
with our institutions is per-
petual menace to all classes of
society. The relief extended
to our people by the passage of
a law excluding the Chinese by
a Republican Congress and ap-
proved by a Republican Presi-
dent is a genuine cause of salts
faction. We are in favor of
strenuously enforcing the pro-
visions of said law, and we
pledge the Republican party to
labor now and henceferth to
secure such further legislation
as will permanently exclude the
Chinese.
Resolred, That we recognize
the paramount Importance of
maintaining unimpaired the
free public school system of the
State. We shall defend it against
sectarian, political or other inn
proper influences, and we favor
such additional legislation as the
condition and wants of the COM
mon schools of the State may
require. As free institutions
they should be SO conducted as
to satisfy poor and rich alike,
and upon this principle we urge
the adoption of some system by
which this State shall furnish
The text books at the lowest pos |
,ible figure.
Reso,red, That owing to the
position of Nevada from
he seabOard and the entire alb
;ence of navigable waters and
competing lines Of railroads to
md from commercial centers,
We demand from Congress such
and effective Iegis-
alton as will place our people on

terms Of equality in respect to
| transportation charges with COM
! munities specially favored by
railroad monOpOlies.
Resoire0, That we pledge the
Republican party of Nevada to
such course CT culighten q
legislation as will extend to rail-
road and all other corporations
doing business in this State the
! same protection and the same
rights before the law as accorded
| 20 individual -nO more and no
less. And further, that the Re-
publican party favors and de-
mands at the hands of the State
Legislature legislation regula-
ting and equalizing freights and
fares on all railroads within this
State.
Reso7red, Thot we are in favor
of the Government Of the United
States establishing a postal tele-
graph service, and operating the
same in connection with the
Postoflice Department.
ResoJred, That the coinage OF
silver should be placed upon the
same basis as that Of gold. and
we invoke early Congressional
legislation to that end.
ReSOJred, That it is the duty
of the Legislature to enact such
laws as will result in the puri-
fication of the jury box and
better promote the adninistra-
ton OF justice.
Hes0}red. That it is the duty
Of the next Legislature to pass
such laws as shall reduce the
expenses Of State and county
governments to the lowest pos
sible limit consistent with the
requirements of the public ser
vice.
Reso1red, That the earnest
attention of Congress and the
State Legislature is directed to |
the subject of codifyiug the laws
relating to the location and |
working of mineral lands to |
the end that legitimate prospec-
ting and the development Of our
chief source Of wealth may best
be promoted.
, ResoIced, That the appropri-
alton by a Republican Congress
for the payment Of pensions to
Union soldiers and to
the veterans Of the Mexican war
is the discharge of a debt Of
honor and law-a generous re-
membrance Of our country'5 de-
Tenders in its supreme hour of
peril.
Re$o'red, That in the judg-
nent Of this convention the
legislature, when next con-
,ened, should make the neceS-
AIRY provisions for convention
o revise the entire Constitution
# the State; that in providing
or such convention, well-guard-
