The New York Times has gathered statis
Tics as TO annual expenditures OF the 3l6
Protestant and Is Roman Catholic churches
of that city. Tie figures OF the latter are to
great extent dependent upon estimates,
but the exhibition OF the financial operations
OF the religious organizations of New York
is probably Trustworthy. According TO these
figures the Protestant churches cost Annually
81, DOB, 735 and give away Sl,3sl.04l; and
the Catholic cost $l,1?5,OO0 and give an
equal amount A large part OF the cApendi-
lures for bcueyolencc is devoted to mission
work outside of New York, 50 that the total
OF operating expenses, S3.e1S, 135, is almost
the whole cost of religious work on Manhat-
tan Island. There are about 1000 drinking
saloons in the city TO the AL churches, and
the amount expended for drink is about

Lander Republican Convention.

The Lander county Republican Con-
vention which convened at Austin
Tuesday nominated the following tick
ct: State Senator, w. w. Whittier;
Assemblymen, George Dale, N. A.
Griffith and j. +. Satler; Sheriff, L. w.
Getchell; Assessor, L. B. Childs; Recor-
der, G. c. Holbrook; County Clerk,

Public Administrator, William Schwin;
Superintendent of Schools, DIR. Ham
mond; County Commissioner, (long
term) J. A. Schulze; Commissioner,
(short term ID. L. Wallace.
The Convention adopted the follow
ing:
Resolved, That we are not yet salts
fed that the Salary law is failure,
and are disposed to give it further
trial, in the hands of officers who do
not need the spur of personal interest
to discharge the duty for which they
are paid liberal salary, and who will
collect the fees with the same fidelity
that they would if such fees were going
into their own pockets. We note the
fact that the strongest opposition to the
Salary law comes from the county off,
GERS throughout the State. and do not
understand the philosophy which inn
pels them to prefer the fees, as they
say these fees will not pay their present
salaries.

State, and it required a man Of intelli-
gence, integrity and respectability to
fill it, as it concerns the lives, the lib
critics aud the property of the people.
If they believed that the people Of the
State, rich and poor had alike been
treated fairly by the Court, and espec-
tally by him individually, he hoped
they would bear that matter in mind.
The position requires experience and it
is but just that he who fills the office
with satisfaction to the public should
have the privilege of repeating it at
least once. The office belongs to no
party, it is non sectarian and non-parti-
san and, though he had always been a
Republican, as Judge he was neither
Republican nor Democrat.
IF. HALLocK,
Candidate for reelection to the Office of
State Controller, was next introduced
and said politically it made no differ
ence whether the office was filled by a
Republican or Democrat, but from a
business standpoint it was of the great
est Importance, that the incumbent
should have ability and honesty. As
Controller for four years he made enc
mics and tread on some peoples corns,
and referred to his record to determine
whether he was right in doing so.
The meeting was orderly throughout,
save one interruption, and the audi
ence listened attentively to all that was
said. AT the close three cheers were
given for the ticket.

A NEW RAILROAD MOVE.
An kd justment of Rates by which
Nevada Can Get Goods from the
East.


The Eureka Sentinel is positively
and reliably informed that the Union
Pacific and Central Pacific Railroads
have made an adjustment OF rates by
which the people OF Nevada will here
after be enabled to get their goods from
the East-New York, Chicago, st.
Louis. or anywhere else, without pay
ing tribute to San Francisco. The de-
tails OF the adjustment we are not able
to publish with PARTICULARLY, as those
from whom we get our information are
not yet in position to give us the whole
matter for print. This much we may
state, however. that very material re-
duction has been made in the freight
ON staple articles, especially on hard
ware aud groceries. On all of such
articles the freight will hereafter be
never more from New York or Chicago
to Palisade, or any other point in Ne
vada. than it has hitherto been from
San Francisco to the same point, and
on some of the articles the freight will
be less-that is to say, you can buy
any of the staple articles of the sort
referred to in the East and have them
laid down at Palisade for the same
freight that you would have to pay
from San Francisco, and on some of the
articles the freight will be less. To
say the least of this adjustment, 1t
gives the people Of Nevada the benefit
of Eastern prices. Instead of buying
in San Francisco goods shipped thither
from the East, paying the middleman
his profits, which includes freight.
handling and percentage, you buy from
cheap market direct.

to acknowledge the receipt of your distin-
guished favor of the 4th instant, asking per-
mission to present my name to the Democratic

a sense of great reluctance that would allow
my name to go before the convention. But, If
the convention should deem # for the best in
terests of the party and the taxpayers general
ly to give me such nomination, will accept It,
and endeavor, II elected, to merit their conf
dence. and win do everything in my power for
the greatest good OF all concerned

Cattle I'm southeastern Oregon.

The Canyon City News has this to
say about cattle in southeastern Ore
gon from which locality many thousand
beeves are driven here annually for
shipment to San Francisco: about
two years ago it was discovered that
the business of raising cattle was at an
end in Grant county. The grass was
all gone and the cattle would starve.
This Spring every one who had any
cattle sold them to be driven to the
East-or at least such has been the
common report. Well. the Assessor
has finished his labors for the season,
and he reports that there are just 1859
head of cattle less in the county now
than there were one year ago. Proba-
bly, the owners Of cattle are anxious to
reduce the debt of the county, and so
report five or six times as many as they
really possess"

Died, in this village on Monday morning
at the ripe old age of SO, George Rooms, ST.,
father of George Rooms of this place. The
deceased was born in Summerset county,
Penn, and removed TO Kalamazoo in 1856,
at which place and in this county he has
since made his home. In 1921 he was mar
ried to Miss Charlotte st. Clair, with whom
he lived for more than co years in the happy
relations of husband and wife, Mrs. Rooms
having died less than one year ago at Water
loo, Ind. Shortly after their marriage Mr..
Rooms united with the M. E. Church, of
which he was an active member until the
time of his death, making period of more
than SO years he had given to the service of
the Lord. Six of his seven children now
living, were enabled to reach here in time to
pay the last respects to their venerable and
aged parent. The funeral was held at his
sons residence on Monday at p. M, and
the remains were taken that night to Water
loo, Ind, to be buried by the side of his
wife.

convinced from a close examination of the

following reasons: First, the washing can
not be done until the hot weather comes on.
Second, in most wool growing sections water
is not adjacent to the fields wherein the
