The sse@eryation.

If the Indians needed the Walker
River Reservation, there would be no
movement TO take 1t away. II they
even made any use Of it, there would
not seaM seem SO much ahSued!tV in
the Convenient maintaining tav .iaes
for the saae q paying the eNpeGze> Of
an additional agency. They not only
neither need. nor USE il. The Pyra.
mid Reservation is where they make
their home wbep they are tired of
living among the whites. The Austin
Rere5i,e asks the people of this section
to answer the question rs to how we
would like il if we We're placed in the
situation which the Indians occupy.
Some of us would very likely object,
but the objections would not answer
much of purpose if it seemed neces-
sary for the general good that the
Reservation should be abandoned,
This is case of public necessity, and
the rights of the few, even when that
few is composed of white people, must
give way to the needs of the whole.
We do not wish to infliet any hard
ship upon the Piutes; on the contrary,
we are willing that they shall continue
to wander at will over the State and
enjoy themselves as they please; but
we are tired of looking at rich
region lying idle merely to crafty the
vanity of a few Indian Chiefs. They
cannot work the mines, nor would
they if they could; they could cult.
yate- the valley, but will not; few
of them catch enough fish to get
money with which to play poker,
Pyramid Lake is their 'favorite, and
will hold all of them; why, therefore,
when this reservation is doing them
no good, keep the white people from
making use of it.
1t sounds well to say that the strong
should not impose on the weak. 1t
not only sounds well, but is true /;
nevertheless, the weak generally have
to submit to imposition. Now, while
using this argument against taking
Walker Lake from the Indians, it
should be remembered that there is
another fine sentiment which can be
used on our side of the case. The
strong should protect the weak. There
is alse an axiom of political economy
which is to the effect that the policy of
any government should be q selfish
one in the interest of its own subjects,
| Our Government can act upon this
principle without doing any wrong to
the Indians, and in so doing will be
protecting the weak of It's own people.
There are ~ great many men in this
section who have, by years of hardship
and toll, become intirm; others,
through the accidents so common in
the life of Il mountaineer, have been
crippled. These old men and ertpples,
no longer able to stand the rough life
of prospector or the hard labor OF a
miner, could make comfortable and
easy living if they were permitted to
go on the lake and fish. This IS not
supposition; the lake being thrown
open would rive a living to many who
are now obliged either to perform
labor for which they are unfit or go
without the necessaries of life. Aside
from the stronger argument of public
policy, the simple old-fashioned prin-
ciple of Christian charity should
prompt the Government to take care
of its own.

Tne Noun, cory Reduction works.

Salkeid and Eekart, the contractors
FOR the building of the Mount Cory
reduction works, have already staked
ont the ground. The location is
on the Nichols ranch, between the
old cabin and the toll house. The
first work will be the erection of build
ings for the accommodation of
the workmen, after which grsding
and building will be pushed ahead as
rapidly as possible. The main build
Ing will be 39oxl4O feet, and the
entire works when completed will cost
about $4,000. They will doubtless
be the best on the Coast, as every use
full improvement in machinery and
process will be adopted. The works
will consist of mill and improved
Rrockner furnace, capable of working
from sixty to seventy tons daily. 1t is
not to be a stamp mill, but a teaching
mill with revolving furnaces. Krom
rolls, somewhat similar to Cornish
rolls in appearance, but of greatly
improved construction and manner of
working, will be used.
The ore will first be broken in rock
breakers, from which it will pass to
an improved form of dryer, After
drying it will be put through the rolls,
where it can be crushed to any fineness
required. After crushing the pulp
will be put through the chlorinizing
furnaces, of which there are four and
from the furnaces will be taken to the
teaching yats, which are operated by
an improved method The silver is
precipitated in the watts aud is then
melted into bars.
The Geddes and Bertrand mill, near
Eureka, which uses a somewhat SINH
lar process, worked fifteen tons of the
Mount Cory ore and demonstrated that
it could be done profitably. The
Mount Cory Company has several
Improvements, both in machinery and
process, and will be able to make con.
siderable saving in the cost of reduc.
ton.
Albert Arents, who has had q very
extensive experience in working this
character of ore, will be in charge
of the works. a. . tfs4
Custom rock will be worked at fair
rates, and vast addition to the wealth
of this section will result from the
enterprise of Mr.. Mckenzie and his
partners. 1t will be at least three
months before all will be ready for
beginning work, but in the meantime
prospectors can safely be getting out
ore. They will no longer have to stop
work with ore in sight, as, instead of
keeping little rock ons their dumps
to show to a possible purchaser, they
can take it to the mill and get money
for further developments. The stu.
alton is convenient for the Company,
as ore and wood can be brought down
from the mountain easily; and owners
of other mines ON Mount Cory will
also be able to bring in their products
cheaply. AT the same time, it is easy
of access from any of the neighboring
districts.

was at first supposed that it was the
remains of some prospector who had
laid aside his pick and shovel, and our
energetic Constable, George Comstock,
was determined on an Investigation to
the end that no foul play might
escape the punishment. Proceedings
were stopped, though, when it was
discovered that it was the body of a

Solid and Gaseous Fuels.

A wri er in London journal. discussing
the question Of the economy Of gas GUS
as compared with solid fuel, asserts that
when combustion takes place, the guam
tity Of oxygen required by the carbon
does not by any means correspond with
that required by the hydrogen, and, as
these elements are not generally sepa-
ra,ei. a certain quantity Of one or the
other must be burnt to waste. The car
bon can only combine with the quantity
of oxygen necessary to form carbonic
acid, and the hydrogen takes up only
that which will produce aqueous vapor;
thus the former of these elements al.
ways absorbs more oxygen than the lat
ter, supposing that there is sufficient to
insure complete combination. When
solid fuel is employed. it is not only
necessary to provide the supply of oxy'
gen required tor combustion, but also to
convey into the furnace sufficient air 10
drive off the products Of that combus.
ton, by insuring the contact of tn oxy-
gen with the whole sur ace Of the com
bustiblc material. In practice, 1t il

Electrical Treatment of Textiles

Electrical treatment OF textiles.
Some recent experiments OH the action
of electric currents upon a solution
of common salt, it was found that there
;sa formation of hypochlorite ofsoda
that is bleaching soda. If the solution
is neutral, there is an escape of chlorine
during the action of the electric current,
while. Il certain quan,itv of hypochlnrite
remains in the liquid; if the solution is
kept alkaline. all the salt is converted
into hypochlorite; if it is made acid, all
the chlorine escapes, and no hypoclor-
lite remains in the solution. The yarn
or cloth to be bleached is saturated with
brine, and passed between two rollers,
each Of which is il connection with one
OF the poles of galvanic battery; and
the current passes through the moist
goods producing hypochlorite of soda,
or free chlorine, according as the solu-
ton Of salt was alkaline or acid. In the
former case, the goods are taken
through sours, to complete the bleach
ing, but the latter case this is not re-
quisite. Discharge styles upon cotton
goods can be produced with rollers:
which are partly covered with nom
conducting materials, the parts left un-
