The Harvard Lecture Conrse.

The Harvard Historical Society is doing
valuable work in the way of developing the
truth Of history in relation to the campaigns of
the civil war. Having selected-largely from
among pa.ticipants-inen of known analytical
and critical acumen TO take up the subject
assigned them, and, by diligent research, sep
arate the pure gold of truth from the dross OF
error into which the public mind has been led
by reckless assertion and often by malicious
misstatements, the society offers course of
lectures this winter that Will be of unusual ia
terest. The subjects treated in the course of
nine lectures are as follows: February 18th,

To those who know the character Of the

will be "a pleasure TO learn that the papers read
before it are designed for publication. One
volume has already been given to the public,
and has proved of great value. The gentlemen
of the society, most of whom were officers in
the army during the civil war, are engaged in
a critical study OF the war, and, as may well
be supposed, the lecturers will bring to the
discussion of the subjects to which they have
been assigned degree of thorough acquaint-

fund be abolished When the State needs a
railroad For the industrial development OF the
whole Commonwealth, let it build it's road at
the expense Of the whoIe, the existing rail-
roads paying their share Of the cost; but the
State must not pay Its railroad aborers sixty
cents day in order to heap up, at their ex-
pense, capital with which TO build new roads.
Trne, the extension of Swiss railroads would
become y slower process ander this method of
managing railroad finances but the Swiss
workman knows that men are more than rail-
roads that it is better to wait for railroads than
to starvc the children of railroad laborers.
This is the plan which the Swiss laborer
would like to try with the Swiss railroads 1t
it proved successful there, he would like to
extend it to all the other industries which
require large capital.
The Swiss have profound confidence in the
State management OF the railroads, because the
State management of the post aud telegraph is
excellent and very cheap; the State, in Switz-
erand, is trustworthy.
The general election to the worl1man's
scheme is that it proposes TO rob Peter to pay
Paul--to tax the whole community, at the
beginning, TO buy the railroad from its present
owners for the good OF the railroad laborers.
The iaborer'S answer to this is that an essential
part Of his plan is to make the railroad pay its
own interest. 1t does SO bow; it would do SO
then. All that he asks is q chance to buy up
and cancel, through State management, year by
year, some of the bonds which, under present
circumstances are an eternal burden upon
railroad earnings. He makes, moreover, the
ingenious suggestion that, after the successful
CARRYING out of his scheme-after completing
the repurchase with railroad earnings OF tie
debt incurred by the State for the first purchase
of the road-fares and freights could be re-
duced for, the interest drain having been abol-
ished in this way and the extension fund
drain having been renowned in the first
place, there would be no object in charg-
ing higher fares than such as are neees-
sary to keep the roads in repair and pay wages
In other words, he foresees the same advan-
tages for the travelling public of the future
over the present which the telegrapbing public
of Switzerland now enjoys over the telegraph
ing public Of America.
Meantime, he observes with interest that q
large part of the total railroad earnings of
Switzerland are paid out Of English and Ameri-
can pockets; Ter summer travel and export
freights are what keep Swiss railroads alive.
The Swiss railroad laborer would like TO keep
this foreign gold in Switzerland. 1t makes
him bitter and revolutionary TO reflect that
while his children are hungry, this stream OF
foreign gold flows, through his labor, out OF
one set OF foreign pockets into the pockets OF
another set of foreigners. e.. into the pockets
of the foreign capitalists who have perpetual
claim upon Swiss railroad earnings, because the
State confers upon them the privilege of adYanc-
ing mouey for building Swiss railroads a
function which it could perform for itself.

FINE BEEvEs.
Improved Breeds Of Cattle on Nevada
Ranges.


Ranges.
The Nevada Land and Cattle Com
pany, whose headquarters are at Kelly
Greek, in the eastern part Of the county,
sold last week to Chapman & Horn, of
San Francisco, one thousand head OF
beef cattle. Some four hundred head
of this purchase were shipped last week
from Iron Point. Cattle dealers say
the beeves will dress on an average
nearly 700 pounds each. This shows
the effect of introducing good breeds OF
cattle among Nevada herds. Some
years ago T. d. Parkinson, who is
managing the affairs of the Company,
bought some fine short-horn Durhams,
from the Jesse ID. Carr herds in Cali
fornia, and took them to the Kelly
Creek ranch. From these and their
progeny, the Company sell number OF
thoroughbred bulls annually, besides
improving their own herds by crossing
the ordinary stock with Durhams.
The graded stock, some of which are as
large as thoroughbreds, thrive as we'll
as the native breeds on the plains and
mountain ranges. Last year the Kelly
Creek ranch, in this county, and the
l. L. ranch, in Elko county, which adj
joins it, and ON which the cattle were
also crossed with Durhams, we're con-
solidated under the name OF the Nevada
Land and Cattle Company. On these
ranches the beeves purchased by Horn
& Chapman were raised. and stock men
say many OF them are as fine .hmbed
and as large in size as pure-blooded
Durhams. 1t is also said these inn
proved breeds are worth from seven to
ten dollars head more than ordinary
cattle, and as they stand the Winters
and do as well on Nevada cattle ranges
as the common breeds OF cattle, that
ought to be a sufficient inducement for
all stock owners to improve their herds.
As the price OF cattle keeps up, with no
prospect Of a material reduction, no
doubt, in a few years, Nevada ranges
will all be stocked with improved
breeds OF cattle.
