Well said.

The Belmont Courier, whose editor,
Mr.. Maute, was elected State Senator
from Nye county at the recent cleo
ton says !: ''The newspapers OF this
State that are advocating retrenchment
so strongly in county affairs, are not
very well acquainted with the geo.
graphy OF the State. We have heard
more han one ignoramus claim that
he could ssess any county in the
State for twelve hundred dollars or
less. We do not envy the man who
tries to do it. In such counties as
Nye, Esmeralda, Lincoln, White Pine,
Elko and Humboldt it takes money
to travel, and an Assessors actual
expense to assess any Of these counties,
will make a holy show oftwelve hun
dred dollars. We do not think that
it is expected that a man will fill a re-
sponsible position to the satisfaction
of taxpayers and himself at starva-
ton wages. This retrenohment plan
that a few papers in the State are
bowling after, means incompetent
government" We concur with the
Courier that no man can properly as
sess White Pine county for 81, 500,
and ifthis SUN il in scrip, as many
believe it will he, why the incoming
Assessor will be swamped.

The Legislative session.

The universal demand for economy
in our State and county affairs is
leading to healthy discussion. Some
of our exchanges strongly advocate a
thirty, or at most forty days session.
It is not the length OF the session,
however, so much as the work that
may be done that the people are in
~terested in. o. II. Grey, now editor
of the Eureka Leader, and who has
had much Legislative experience, puts
the matter in this practical light:
Much has been said aud is being
SAID in advocacy of a thirty days
session of the Nevada Legislature.
9sr as such an event might be,
IheSe IS 1ot.the least probability that
1t will occur. One of the essentials
of wise legislation is d~eliberaiion, and
in that line nothing can be we'll done
that Is not deliberately done. The
Assembly at the next session will be
almost wholly composed of new and
consequently inexperienced mem.
beers, and il will take them several
days 10 settle down under their new
assumed dignity and honor so as to
sufficiently possess their wits to en-
able them to proceed to the election
OF a United States Senator. After
that momentous event several DAYS
rest will be needed. Then they will
begin TO examine the journals of past
sessions, and learn hat The wisdom
of their predecessors impelled them
to do, and finally about the 10th OF
January, 1885, they will be prepared
for the actual business OF the session.
This will leave but forty working
days, aud that is not too much. There
is always important work for the
Legislature to do, and the levity with
which their work is usually discussed
in the press is much out Of place and
almost always unjust. All financial
propositions affecting the State rev.
enue based on an estimated cost of
less than $50, 900 will fall short Of their
aim. II the next session of the Leg
islature shall have done their whole
duty well and faithfully when the
gavel of the presiding officers shall
fall at the hour fixed Ivy the Consti-
tuition we shall be ready to commend
their industry.

Bishop Sharpe OF Utah, in a talk
with a New York reporter, declares
that the more the Mormons are per-
secuted the faster the religion will
grow. The trouble is, saysthe Chron-
icle, that there has never been any
persecution of the pestilent heresy; If
there had been it would have been
wiped out as a political power long
before this. 1t has been treated with
far greater liberation than 1t deserved.
Henee il has waxed Fat and kicked.
A small measure of genuine "perse-
cution"-in common English, en-
forced conformation with the laws OF

bound I obey-would have a whole
some effect on this s~tiff-necked Utah

The SEEDLEss WATERMELoN.- -

The SEEDLEss WATERMELoN.-
A writer in the Tallahassee Flori-
dian says: 1T may be matter of
interest to your many readers to
know how to produce tho seedless
watermelon. As soon as the vine
has attained the length Of 3 feet or
more, place under it, about mid
way the vine, the amount of COM
post you would put in hill, to do
which it is best to cxcavate the
earth, and bring to a level with
good compost. Place the vine over
this, and cover to a sufficient depth
to prevent drying, leaving out as
much as possible Of tho bud. AS
soon as it has taken roOt cut it loose
from the parent stem. IF there
should be a bloom, or bloom bud,
before it takes root in the place Of
seeds, there will be white pubs,
but uone afterward.'

The theory that consumption

The theory that consumption
is contagious has been laughed at,
but some striking conirmatory ev-
ileucc has boon gathered by the
British Medical Association, which
las been mquiring into the expert
cnces Of physicians in this direct
ZION. Only about 100 Of moro than
1000 doctors who replied ventur
ed to declare their disbelief in the
contagion theory, though moro
than half OF them We're unprepared
TO express an opinion either way.
But POI declared positively that
they had known cases where the
disease was communicated from
one person to another, and IN a
large number Of cases where it was
known that thelu was no hcrcdita-
ry faint in the family Of the person
catching the disease. The great
majority Of these victims were the
husbands or wives Of consumpt-
ives, and many others had been
nurses Of the sick persous. Two
or three instances are given where
the disease had thus been commu-
nicatcd to three, four and five per-
sons, one after another. The med
ical association does not venture
to assert that this data absolutely "
proves the contagiousncss Of tuber-
rulosis; it is, however. a strong
evidence in favor Of the belief that
the bacilli or germs discovered by
Koch are the cause and not the re,
suit Of the disease.

A RATTLING WATCH.-Thomas
Steen, the well-known auctioneer
of this city, saw an advertisement
in respectable Western agricult-
raj paper which stated that the pro-
prietors Of the 'Fireside Journal,
published in New York, had pur-
chased $4,000 watches from vari-
Gus pawnbroker shops, and that
for three dollars and half the
Journal would be sent for / year
and one Of the watches would be
thrown in. A colored man who
works for Mr.. Steen wanted a
watch, and Mr.. Steen sent =. O.
order for the amount named. A
month elapsed and nething was
heard from the Journal. Mr.. Steen
corrcsDonded with the proprietors
Of the newspaper which published
the advertisement, got written
guarantee from the New York post
office that the money had been paid
over to the journal and wrote to
the proprietors of that sheet, who
denied having received the money,
the duplicate order proving the
payment was sert to them. The
other day the watch came, but it
is such q mean one that Mr.. Steen
was ashamed to give it to the col
ored man and returned him the
money from his pocket. The
watch in question is a 'rattler.' It
is open face, tho crystal revolvcs
with facility, and when the in6tru-
ment is shaken its works rattle and
are decidedly loose, therefore the
watch is dubbed a rattle. The two
hands are pure brass and the case
Of some white metal which is not
silver. The thing goes but the
time it keeps has not yet been de-
