China would amount to $5,250,O0O. There is a
great difference of opinion as to whether or no
Congress should make itself the tool of these
brokers. There is more silver in the trade dol
lar than there is in the standard dollar. Its
coinage was authorized in 1873, and the object
of the measure was to provide a coin for use in
our trade with China, no gold or silver being at
that time coined in that country. 1t was not
intended for circulation in this country, but the
depreciation in silver, brought it back here,
and by the act of 1876 its manufacture was
stopped and its legal tender quality taken
away.

Clay township. This road strikes the narrow
guage railroad a short distance above Mr..
Reiber's residence, east of town, and will
come in TO the West Penn depot on the old
narrow guage bed, now out of use. A curve
or Y will likely be built at this point for the
accommodation of through trains. The new
road is being well built. There are no sharp
curves on it and the highest grade-that at
the SUBMITS but one foot in hundred or
81 feet to the mile. We understand that it is
especially intended for the through freight Of
the P. r. R., which has it and the s. & A. r
R. leased. Its completion will, we think
make Butler desirable manufacturing point

Butler was full of vacant houses, now there
are none, and next spring houses will probably
be in greater demand than they were this
spring. 1t might pay our capitalists and land

one of the grievances brought
against the White Pine Board was
that sthey had failed to publish The
Auditor and Treasurer's joint quar-
terly report a duty devolving upon
those official themselves, and who
alone were responsible for such
failure.-[Elko Independent.
Yours only half right, neighbor.
The reports should have been made
to the Board, and that body should
order their publication. But they
we're not made at all, and of course
could not be published. 1t was these
officials duty to make them, but fail
ing in that duty, the Board shosld
have compelled obedience to the law.

An old miner writing to Tho HALEY News
Miner from Soeorro, New Mexico, which Is
but a short distance from he Lake Valley
mines, came pretty near the truth when he
wrote the following: A Lake Valley all
agree they have one good mine and that's all
they have got. Attic Poreh4 district that
built up Kingston they have one pretty fair
prospect and no more. Al agree on one
point, that everything LAYS in pockets. II
New Mexico is having its boom | fail to see
any evidence of it. Nearly every mine and
prospect in the Territory is in FIRST hands
and sales Of mining property are as scarce as
hens teeth. The prospecting community
here consists principally of COW boys and Ar
kansas immigrants, with now and then an
old California, Utah or Nevada whisky head
mixed up with the crowd 10 add variety.
The agricultural population is confined to the
valley OF the kio Grande and is Mexican ex-
clusiyely. Their annual crop consists of corn
and red pepper

Miners Cheated.

The Phoebe Record says that a few
checks, given by the Bristol Mining
Company 10 employees for labor, about
a month ago, drawn on Mr.. Wells,
have been protested in the East.
These checks were given to men who
refused to file liens on the property OF
the company. All the men who filed
liens received their pay, while those
who to favor the company, failed to
do so, have mob been paid, and as the
time OF limitation has now passed, the
chances are that they will never be.
Men are very foolish to take such
risk for their pay, when it is wholly
unnecessary

Constitutional Lawyers.

Whenever a railroad bill comes up
for discussion the constitutional law
yer is OF deck. The Appeal says that
Carson is now full OF constitutional
lawyers" talking to gaping crowds on
the railroad bills. There is the law
yer who insists hat each and every
bill will stand the test OF the courts,
the one who insists that the railroads
have inserted constitutional flaws for
a purpose, and then again one is found
who hesitates about giving an opinion
until he has read the bill under dis
%cussion and consulted the authorizes.
The latter class is very scarce.

A Check on court-House Rings.

Senator Dennis has introduced a bill to
compel the County Commissioner to adYer-
tise their expenditures. 1t has met with OPP
position, the nature Of which isthus discussed
in the Carson Appeal: The opposition is
made under the usual mask Of economy. and
comes as a matter Of course from what i sgen-
orally known as the Courthouse rings" 1t
IL claimed tina; this advertising will drag vast
sums of money out Of the treasury and dump
the same into the Golfers Of the newspapers.
1t is urged on the part Of the economists that
it will cost ten dollars a square aud all that.
Now the fact is that no newspaper can charge
more than 81 % n square for advertising IN
der the law, and the law also compels the "a.
pers to use tho smallest type fonnd in a noss-
paper oflee-nonpariel. Tho object Of the
Law is 10 allow taxpayers to see each month
just whore their money goes. and II this bill
becomes Il law John Doe cannot slip in a bill
Of sl6 per cord for wood which a rival dealer
would be glad to furnish Tor s.. 1t will show
taxpayers who are being favored by ths
board, and IN many counties prevent an ex-
t|ruyaEant waste of county money. In some
portions Of Nevada these Boards have held
secret meetings and dllOd the purses Of their
pets from the county treasures. caused their
relatives 10 fatten ut the expense OF the tax
payers and feathered their own nests beside.

tie a sworn statement OF expenditures a. are

county oldcer should DO compelled to spread
his records before the public once a month ia
the columns Of a county newspaper. Take a
recent instance: In storey county the experts
have found a deficit Of sill ia the County
Clerk Office. Whom the county gets through
paving the experts it will cost 81 1000. Now,
We hold that 500 a year expended in tho pro-
posed advertising wonld have saved all this.

proposition, when his accounts are scrutinized

The salary Act Repealed.

The bill to repeal the Salary Act
has passed both Houses, to take effect
in 1888. There were some efforts
made in the Senate to exempt a few
counties from its provisions, but it
finally passed by a vote of SO To 6,
without amendments. There are some
good arguments on each side of the
Salary Act. Many of the counties
give figures to prove that it has saved
them thousands OF dollars since it
went into operation, while ON the
other hand other counties, like White
Pine, claim that their public business
is not as we'll attended TO as il would
be il fees depended upon it, and also
affirm that it costs them more. The
present county officers are not affected
in any II by the repeal.
