During that period Mr.. Mitchell
never once wrote to me Oh the
subject. In 1878, after l re-
ceived the nomination for State
Senator, l was notified OF the
two claims, and told that if !
did net pay them l should be
published and thereby defeated.
I answered that if the claims
were just l would pay them, but
no specific statement of the ac-
count was ever rendered.
Shortly after this campaign
opened ! received congratu-
latory letter from Mr.. Mitchell.
Later CD another came from his
eldest son, from San Francisco,
stating that if / did not imme-
diately pay the two claims re
ferred to ] should be published

proper for me to do so, | could
have paid the claims, for in 1878:
the date at which the bill was
first presented, ! was $4,000 in
debt, and have not teen able to
reduce the figure very much at

DAvY CROOK ETT.-Last nj ght
Mr.. Frank Mayo presented
Davy Crockett at the Opera
House with himself in the title
role and Miss Charlotte Behrens
as leading lady. There was a
large audience TO welcome Mayo
who to-day stands as one of the
leading general favorites on the
American stage. This arises
frem two reasons. His talent
as an actor and his qualities as a
man. His friends are glad to
see him back in the back woods
form again, because when he
took to Shakespeare none Of the
tragedian's snapped off and
tried to play " Davy Crockett, "
and so our old friend was lost to
sight for while and his return
in the flesh is doubly welcome.
He acts, he seems, he Is Crock
EFT, from the time he first steps
upon the boards until the cur
tain falls. Miss Behrens,
although new to the stage, is a
lady who has promise Of
future dramatic triumphs, and
with youth, beauty and genius
on her side will not be long in
cleaving her way 20 the fore.
Mr.. Mayo found her but recent
Iy in San Francisco, and has
secured a jewel which will shine
as soon as it gets the true
dramatic polish, which only
comes from time and experience.
The support was fine, and the
play presented in the careful
manner which is noticeable with
all of Mr.. Mayo's combinations.

How the DAhocrnts Like the
School Fund George Ernst's
Work in the Legialature.

Work in the Legislature.
Three years ago, mainl,
through the efforts of Senator
Jones, Congress passed an ac
donating 100000 acres of lane
to the State of Nevada in lieu o
the worthless section which
heretofore belonged to it for the
school fund. After the passage
of this act ali that Was needed
was an act of the Legislature
to provide for the proper method
of selecting the land. At the
last Legislature bill was intro
duced which provided for the
selection and graduation Of the
timber (the most valuable lands
in the State(, aud sale of them
according to their mark etable
yalue-the common wood land
for 81 % per acre, the same as
for agricultural land, and the
best timber land for s. 80 per
acre. At these rates the State
school fund would receive, upon
the sale of these lands, an aver
age Of s. per acre, or an aggre-
gate of four million dollars.
The bill passed the Senate by
a nearly unanimous vote, but in
the Assembly it met the formid-
able opposition of the member
from Nye county, George Ernst,
who was also Chairman of the
House Committee on Public
Lands. Now Ernst w3 then,
and now is, interested in a wood
speculation down in Nye county,
and as the provisions of the bill
would efectually protect the
timber lands selected by the
State from depredators, it was
particularly Objectionable to him.
At his instance, and through his
efforts, the provisions for selec-
ton and graduation Of timber
lands were stricken out.
Thus through the personal
business interest taken by the
Nye county member, in thus
emasculating that important bill,
nearly one million Of dollars is
lost to Nevada's school fund.
Mr.. Ernst is the Democratic
for Surveyor General,
and eX. officio State Land Regis |
ter, an officer who manages the
sale of the State School lands,
and whose duty it also is to
recon- esnd to the Legislature
such changes and amendments
in the existing land laws as will
best promote the interest of the |
State School fund. As IA Legis-
atOr, Ernst has not only shown
himself unable to honorably
avoid acting for his own selfish
but has proven him
self an enemy to our public
schools, the last OF which is
probably more in accord with
Democratic principles than any
hing else recently heard Of.

School Matters.
The school trustees of this district
met Thursday and allowed few bills,
among which was some money for the
teachers. They also had under con-
sideration the enlargement of school
facilities, us the present school accom-
modations were crowded to the utmost.
At present in the neighbOrhood Of $50
pupils are In attendance, and q number
more are desirous of attending, pro-
vided proper school facilities can be
given them. An application was made
from Forsythe for school TO be estab-
lished at that point, as they have about
thirty scholars there who at present
are deprived of the chances of educa-
tion. The Forsythe matter, after con.
sideration. was referred back, with the
information that they should proceed
to organize q new school district. with
their boundaries commencing at Rose
bud and extending to the neighbor-
hood of Big Porcupine. After other
business of q private nature, the board
adjourned until Monday night.

than used to be made in our schools
when.we were young. We certainly
have enlarged facilities I'm our nor
nal and other schools, for preparing
teachers for their work, and teachers
are availing themselves of this advan.
tage, and the results are telling upon
the common school. Teachers wages
range from $40 to $50 per month for
the summer term, and from S25 to
$40 for the winter term. In some
instances teachers have been paid $45
for the winter school. True these
wages were low, but we have raised
up a large supply of teachers from
among ourselves, and teachers have
come among us from other parts. SO
that of teachers we have had no lack I.
Hard times and dullness in other
branches of business, have helped to
crowd the teachers profession, and
have kept down the wages, but rs
times improve, we think there must
be a corresponding advancement in the
salary of teachers. Garden City,
