An Injustice.

1t is not right to condemn a whole COM
munity for the disgraceful acts Of a few
persons, unless the offenders nave the SYM
pathy of their peighbors, and are allowed
to violate the rules of law and humanity
without effort to punish them. Nevada
provides well for her insane. and strenu-
Gus efforts will be made to ferret out and
bring to justice the murderers OF Charley
jerks, the unfortunate ~lunatic, killed re-
Gently by some heartless men in Nye
County. In view of these facts the follow
ing article from the Ogden Pilot does the
people of Nevada gross injustice:
"Nevada men do not appear to be in
favor Of caging crazy men in asylums for
the insane A poor wretch, named Charles
jerks, became demented and wandered off
to the hills surrounding Pahranagat VAL
ley. Sixteen men, whites and Indians,
shouldered their rifles and started out to
hunt him down. When he caught sight
Of his pursuers he started to run, but was
fired upon and killed. So far we have
received no account Of the capture Of this
inhuman gang. nor does it speak we'll for
Nevada justice that nothing is heard of
any intention to punish them for their

the eight banks is given at $50, 400, 718,
an increase Of So, 1888, 237 over the amount
of liabilities July /, 1882. This is con
sidered a remarkable gain, in view Of the
fact that the rates Of interest on deposits
are the lowest they nave ever been. The
assets of the Hibernia Bank aggregate the
