had started fire IN the sage brush
just north Of the places the flames
spread rapidly among the dry brush,
and a fresh breeze swept the fire
toward the hay stacks and buildings

the fire, and no damage was done.
The alarm was given about . o'clock
in the evening, and plenty of men were

LYON County ltNms.

The following news items are from
the Lyon County Times Of last Saturday,
The Woodwork mill started up yes
terday and there are now but few idle
men in town.
Water in the Carson river is now
quite low, and it is feared that there
will be a scarcity for the mills this
Summer
A road is being built from Lovelocks
to Bernice District in Churchill
County. This new camp will open up
a good market for Churchill ranchers
and they ought to have enterprise
enough TO build road across the
mountain and corral the trade.
Dave Wightman is feeding about
300 head of cattle at the upper Sink of
the Carson. Uncle Samuel Dildine has
charge of the band. He was formerly
Surveyor of Churchill County and now,
for practice, he once in while brings
out his tripod, theodolite, etc, and
takes survey of the herd to see if il
has increased any.
Some very fine blooded horses
passed through town today on their
way to Mason Valley. They are the
property of Mr.. McAister, who brought
them from California. He has pur
chased ranch in Mason Valley and
will devote his time to raising fine
stock. Among the horses was Nor
mon stallion weighing 100 and valued
at $4,000.

Fine r'fsh

Some trout yard long were brought
TO town few days ago. They had
wandered over the reservation line and
were hauled in by citizens who were
lying in wait. Trout know that indians
are too lazy to hook them and their
ignorence of the field notes of the
Monroe survey exposes them to con
slant danger, as relying ON the indo
lence of the Piutes they are careless In
the selection of their feeding ground
and, as soon as they cross the line
become lawful prey to the watchfu
white man.

For a long time very favorable

extend from the principal office at
Candelaria to the office of the mills at
Belleville, distance of about seven or
eight miles, and from Bellcville to the

about thirteen miles more. The Office
of the Western Union Telegraph Com.
pany, ut r. X. Gamble & Co.'S store,
will be included in the circuit and
telephone instruments will be placed
there. 1t will greatly facilitate the
transaction of the volume of business
now existing between the mine and
mills and proporlionately decrease the
travel between the two points.

Won't 1t BE Flu nny.

The Indians are angry about the big
fish that wander over the reservation
line to be captured by taxpayers. They
are determined to stir up the authori-
ties and prevent further depopulation
Of the lake. As the only way to keep
the trout safe will be for the United
States Marshal and a company of
soldiers to station themselves along the
line and herd the fish, the boys are
anticipating plenty of fun when the
time comes that they can watch the
boys in blue sitting in fiat boats
thrashing the water under command of

made, and it lie probable that a concen'
traitor will soon be IN operation near

wise will work their claims and have

Credit.

A number Of exchanges are making
complaint about their items being
copied without credit. 1t is sometimes
little trying to the country reporter
to see an item quietly appropriated
after he has spent several hours of
doubt and perrlexity in arriving at the
truth through maze of improbable
rumor The BULLETIN has also
suffered, but the experience is not so
painful, as it has lively and industri.
GUS community In which to gather Its
harvest of news and also consoles itself
in the possession of nimble pair of
scissors which frequently make gaps in
contemporary sheets without even a
"thank you,' or "by your leave"
There is such thing as legitimate
stealing of items, and when anyone
needs an extract from the BULLETIN
he is entirely welcome; there is always
plenty as long as it lasts. There is a
class Of credit which is exasperating
that is when good item is stolen and
credited to another sheet. OF this,
however, this paper has little complaint
| to make; il can bear with fortitude the
few injuries of that class that fall to
its lot, but there are cases of miscredit
when the virtue Of patience seems like
the meekness of cowardice. For
months the Carson appeal has been
printing the most atrocious lies and
giving this paper as authority. First
it told about lot Of rats getting their
tails tangled. This was supposed TO be
mistake and nothing was said about
il. Then came another about q man,
hiding in hollow log, having
his head sawed off. Another

buggy on the same side just before he
took his girl out riding; and several
others Of improbable horror and glazing

next the horizon, the cloud changed
from Q deep violet to ses green.
Higher up it was inky black. and its
front was line OF light bnf colored

and twisting as they came on. Those
who watched, and most people did
watch the storm, looked to see cyclone
form somewhere among these ragged,
writhiDR clouds that formed the
front, hut no cyclone was seen from the
city. The storm cloud came on rapidly,
moving from west to east, and as il
closed over it grew dark almost as night,
though the sun was not nearly set. The
wind blew from various quarters. now
hot as from u furnace, then cold as from
q beer cellar. As the clouds closed out
the last of the blue sky east there was
strong west wind, and then dash Of
rain. but no great amount. The light
ming was terribly sharp, but most of the
electric storm, as of the rain and wind,
passed around the city to the north. In
the city nothing could be learned after
the rain had subsidized of damage done
by lightning or wind, though doubtless
so strong a wind has broken trees and
overturned light buildings.

James Kingsbury, chairman of the
democratic central committee of Yapk.
ton county, in behalf of the committee
announces in the Herald, over his o E:cial
signature, that the democracy of Yank-
ton county will in no manner participate
in the election of delegates to the con-
stitutional convention. This is pre-
sumed to be notification to the demo.
Gratis of the county to remain away from
conventions and the polls, but 80 far as
its individual application is concerned it
will doubtless fail in a majority of in.
stances. The party lash cannot be
effectively used in this emergency. Men
are men, whatever may be their politics,
and the free exercise of their rights of
citizenship Is their dearest heritage. The
privilege of voting upon a matter of
vital importance cannot be taken from
them at the order of an organization
whose duties are purely of mechan.
ical nature and who are not recog-
nized as occupying the position
of political dictators. In this
constitutional movement there is
nothing of political nature any more
than there was in the magma charta of
our forefathers when they shook off de-
pendence and asserted independence.
Republicans as republicans should keep
their hands off and democrats as demo-
Gratis should do likewise. The citizen
as citizen should voice his
preference for representatives in
the constitutional convention and
no edict from political source
should lead him to the polls OF drive
him away. There is duty to perform,
which every man owes to himself, higher
than that which can ba dictated by party
fealty or partisan bias. 1t is better to
strive to attain the highest aim of hu-
man hopes in this free land-the right
of self government-than to strive to be
a good republican or q true democrat
We have never favored the management
of these constitutional preliminaries by
any political organization of men, be.
lieving the question to be one for the peo.
