Truckee has had its fourth disastrous
fire, and we are sorry for it. says the San
Francisco Daily Report, but We cannot say
we are surprised, nor do We sympathize as
much with Truckee as under other circum-
stances we might. When a Daily Report
representative happened to be in Truckee
a few weeks ago with an hour or two
to spare, he took a look at the fire ex-
tinguishing facilities among other things,
and was surprised at them. The town had
already been three times almost wiped out
aud yet there stood an old worn out look
ing engine, itself, its apparatus and its
hose exposed to the sun, wind and weather.
Everything about it'betokened neglect and
ruin, and the reporter thought to himself,

have a hard time getting that engine into
action" They probably had last night,
and so there WAS = disastrous confiagra-
ton. You don't find that towns which
keep their fire department in good dis
cipline and their apparatus in good order
have these disastrous fires. Such fires
are the result Of ~laziness and shiftlessness

EDITOR EVENING CHRoS1cLE-sir: As
the friends Of J. F. Hallock, the present
State Controller and Republican nominee

distinction as an -Monopolist and as

prise some Of them to learn that he ap-
peared before the Washoe County Commits
sionsrs acting as q Board Of Equalization
lin company with General Murphy and
Black Ryan tthe attorney OF the Central
Pacific, aud asked and urged that the
assessment Of the Central Pacific Railroad
be reduced from $4,000 to 80, 600 per
mile. which request was emphatioslly re-
fused. A voter would humbly ssk' How
does this compare with the official conduct
of his opponent, P. ]. Dunno, for the same
position, and should it not be remembered

the uniform rate Of S25, 900 per mile.

A BOOMERANG.

Ii is alleged that $4,000 saloon-keep-
ers, each controlling one vote besides his
own, making an aggregate OF $4,000
voters, bolted the Republican ticket IN
Ohio this year and voted with the Dem
ocrats, and because of this alleged free
run vote the Democratic victory in that
State is declared to be tainted with dis
grace, - or, as one enthusiastic and truly
good editor blandly remarks, is ''redolent
of the order of infamy.' For the sake
of a little argument with these unhappy
brethren of the Republican press, we
will suppose that the story OF the free
rum bolt is true. These saloon-keepers,
then, hold the balance OF power in Ohio.
When they and their $4,000 friends vote
for a ticket on either side Of the political
fence, that ticket is elected. When they
leave a party it is defeated. Well, the
Republican party in Ohio is generally
successful; the Democratic party usually
in the dumps Of dire defeat. This logic
demonstrates that Hayes carried Ohio in
1876, and Garfield in 1850, by the aid OF
these 80, 600 ''rummies." Was the vic
tory Of Hayes, therefore, tainted with
disgrace Was the victory Of Garfield
in his own State, therefore, "redolent
Of the odor Of infamy:" The brethren
can see where their logic lands the
grand old party" and they will, let US
hope, sit down in the shade and calmly
reflect on the folly Of their wild talk.
We have no notion that the Ohio saloon
keepers constitute a compact body, and
transfer their vote from n party to
another. We are, however, confident
that the fanaticism Of Smith, Foster
& Co. repealed a good many thousand
voters this year, including men who are
more consistent friends OF temperance
char any Of the fanatics.

The Trouble With the Steward.

ed a traveller as he stepped abear an
outgoing steamer, just previous TO his
departure.
"Oh, he was discharged some time
