The Denver Ne,cs artist has begun re-
producing in the columns of that journal
alleged Jae siniLes of the noses of pro-
minent individuals in that city. Probably
a person never fully appreciates the dis
agreeable characteristics ofhis countenance
until his proboscis is singled out from the
rest of his features and sketched on the
instalment plan. If the specimens fur
nished by the Neics maj are fair samples
of what may be expected in the nose line
in Denver, it will cause the instructive
artist to weep at the degeneracy from the
beautiful old Greeian models.

AMERICAN LITERATURE.

The following extract from an
able article written by Otto Green.
hood for the San Franciscan shows
plainly the effect American ambition
in the accumulation of wealth has on
the literature of the Nation:
The result is that Ameaica's paucity
OF literature, art and music is un-
equaled by any other enlightened
nation. 1t is humiliating tor an
American to confess so much, but
the disgraceful fact is too palable to
be disguised, Even semi barbaric
Russia has awakened to the desira
bility of encouraging and fostering
q domestic literature in advance OF
that of the past, and the government
rs we'll as the plutocratic classes are
annually contributing adequately to
place that nation on a literary footing
of equality with others who boast of
q superior degree of civilization and
progression. To contemplate that
the most unenlightened of so.cslled
civilized nations 10 doing 80 much to
establish an enduring domestic liter
allure, while America, the grandest
power on earth, with limitless re-
sources, should haye none, is pitiable
indeed. The natural intellectual
material to be found in every nook
and crook in this land, cultivated by
its superior educational facilities,
could within half century, if pro-
perly encouraged, be made to out
rival the world in literary production
of fiction, metaphysics, science, etc.
But so long as the rich classes of
America exhibit enthusiasm for
nothing but a sordid desire for more
money, SO long will Americans have
to depend upon foreign countries for
the desirabilities of an intelligent
and refined people.

-IT is curious that in each year
for many years some new and hereto
fore unknown disease has broken out
in epidemic form among the domestic
animals of the United States. Horses
sheep and cattle have all been victims
of the efforts OF Nature to show her
consistency in the rule of advance
ment, or evolution. She has shown
by the foot and mouth disease that
true to her highest law she will al
ways provide for altered circum-
stances, and that as veterinary
surgeons become skillful and numer'
Gus, she will help them in the struggle
for existence by providing new dis
eases for them to combat.

In regard to roads we would rec
ommend the pressing need OF some

In conclusion, we wish to call the

such steps as will put the doors,
windows and floors in good con-
dition. W. j. WEsTERFIELD,

ONE OF the head lights of
Spiritualism has been exposed
through having been obliged to sub
nit to the cruel lest OF heartless
skeptic who insisted that she should
wear gloves with the thumbs sewn
together. The poor woman is now
without the means of sn honest liv-
ing, as being unable to release her
hands the manifestation would not
come and her followers have lost
faith. This is an example of how
much harm the scoffer on the back
seat can do.

THIS President will veto the
Fitz John Porter bill. This inform
alton comes from q source entitled
to credence. The reason for this is
said to be that the President conaid-
ers the executive pardon restoring
Porter to citizenship as big boon as
ought to be conferred upon him. He
does not think the evidence proves
him guiltless bD any means, although
it has modified his offense sufficient
ly to show that the original sentence
was excessive in its severity. The
bill may not reach the President for
action at all this session, as it is tied
up in the House, but that be will veto
it when it comes to him finally is
regarded by those close In his conf.
dence as certain.-Reno Journal.

THE G e. & RAILROAD.

The Carson and Colorado Railroad
starting from the Mound House,
saloon ON the Virginia and Truckee
railroad, few miles from Virginia
City-and ending no man knows ex-
actly where, is puzzle to the rail
way world. The end OF it, about
three hundred miles from the begin
ming, is peking around the sage brush
looking for now mining district,
much like snake searching for a
sleeping jack rabbit. A Mr.. Yerring-
ton is the genius who superintends
the road, and guides the prospecting
end of it. D. o. Mills has the pleas
'ure of footing the bills.-Ssn Fran
-ciscsn.
The Carson and Colorado railroad
came poking along this way and
poked new lifs into the business OF
this section. 1t then continued its
search for new districts, found those
near Walker Lake on Mount Grant
and Cory and those in the Gillis
Mountains, making 1t possible for
many men to proftably work in
mines which were previously of no
value on account of the expense of
transportation. 1t has gone on South
finding new districts and the more it
finds the better for all this part of
Nevada. The opportunity to fling
rather cutting jest at railroad was
in this instance 8 little too much for
the San Franciscan's sense of fair
play.
