distressing Accident.

es-Review of the I'd instant: A most
lamenta BILE accident occurred to Curtis
Watkins about half past four O'Clock yes
terdsy afternoon. He was riding one
horse and leading another. The led horse
did not take kindly to the rope. and when
near the Elko Con. dump he swung around
the animal which Watkins was riding, the
halter pressing tightly to the riders legs,
holding him fast in the saddle. The
pressure of the rope threw the riding
horse which fell on Mr.. Watkins and they
were both ON the ground together for
some time before the unfortunate man
was able to extricate himself. The acct
dent was witnessed from q distance by a
number of persons who FASTENED to the
scene. The sufferer was conveyed to his
cabin, which wal near at hand, and DR..
Drake sent for. An examination showed
that the right thigh bone was broken and
also the collar bone. He was also con-
siderably bruised about the body and it
was thought at first that q couple Of ribs
we're broken. That was, however, a mis-
take. The fractured bones were set and
the patient at last accounts was as com.
Portable as could be expected, considering
the serious character of the accident.

INDIAN EDUCATION.

The Pyramid Lake Reservation
Agent Gibson and His Good work
- Prosperous and Happy.N Native
Community.
G. s. Young, State Superintendent of
Public Education, returned from q visit
to the Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation
recently. He was there several days, and
was highly gratifed and pleased with what
he saw. The Indians take q great interest
in farming, and many of them have their
little farms nicely fenced, and work with
horses or mules and plows, putting in
grain crops like old California ranchers.
They are all very willing and ambitious
Of having homes for themselves and living
after the style Of their countrymen. Agent
Gibson is a very great fsvorite with them,
and they think there is no other man in
the world like him. His word is law, and
they do. whatever he tells them to do
with the most pleasurable willingness and
alscrity. They have learned all his old
songs, too, and give them in grand chorus
and with startling effect. The school
where the youthful aborigines are reoeiv-
ing their good American education is also
well attended, and being very successfully
conducted, with Mrs. Gibson as teacher,
assisted by Miss Doane. These Indian
children are tractable and intelligent, and
show good progress in the various branches
of common school education. Mr.. Young
has a high opinion Of their capabilities in
that respect. On this subject the Reno
Gazette OF a recent date says:
Prof. @. s. Young is very Jealous in the
work OF securing an Indian school for
Nevada. He recently spent several days
at the Pyramid Reservation gathering data
for a statistical report for the Commits
sioner of Indian Affairs. There are 5000
Indians. more than in any other Territory
other thar New Mexico. The Government
has appropriated S400. 900 for the educa-
ton Of this fast-becoming extinct race,
and there is no reason but inaction why
Nevada Indians should not share q part of
this vast sum. Local jealousies should
not interpose, but the citizens of the
State should work shoulder to shoulder
till an Indian school is a fixed fact. Then
it is time enough for the various localities
to pull and tug for the advantages to be
derived from the location of such an in
stitution. The efforts of Professor Young
to secure the school should be commended,
and II il is secured the credit should fall
largely to him for his persistence in the
work.

SILVER COINAGE.
The Nations that are Responsible
for Its Depreciation.

Since 1876 the favorite theory to account
for the decline in the price OF silver has
been that it was produced by the demone-
tization of the metal by Germany. But
recent coinage statistics show that other
European nations are more responsible
than Germany for the depreciation. Says
the San Francisco Alta: Germany demon
etized about S160, O0O. 900 of silver, and
since 1875 the United States has coined
$500, 000, 900. This is 500, 900, 900 more
than the amount put out OF circulation by
Germany, and the United States coinage
since 1875 ought to have completely onset
the German characterization, because be-
fore 1875 this country had been coming
very little silver. From 1865 to 1874,
inclusive, the amount was only SZO,ooO'-
900, against $500, 600. 900 for the last de-
cade. Nevertheless the price has steaoiiy
fallen, until now it is about ~ per cent
lower than it was in 1874. But while the
United States has been more than making
up for the characterization OF silver by
Germany, the silver nations OF Europe
have almost stopped coinage. during sne
last ten years the silver coinage OF france
has been 500, 900, 900 less than during the
preceding ten. The decrease in the com
age OF Belgium is $40, 900, 900; md in that
of Italy, S35, 900. 900. Holland, Switzer-
land and Norway and Sweden have fol-
lowed the same course. In short. while
during 1854 as compared with lS6o,74'
the silver coinage OF the United States has
increased S240, 00O. 900, that OF the Euro
pean nations has decreased $3.50 Ooo, 200.
This, in connection with increased pro-
duction, is sufficient to account for the
depreciation, and shows the imperative
necessity of in international concert OF action
in restoring silver to its old place. The
United States alone cannot do it.

CARsoN,s PUBLIC BUILDING.
The Bidders TO Have n Chance "a
Advocate Their Claims.

The Bidders TO Have n Chance to
Advocate Their Claims.
The committee having the location Of the
Government building in charge, says the
Carson Appeal Of last Sunday. are very
much puzzled to know just how to select q
site which will be Of the greatest benefit to
the largest number. They are gentlemen
who are all disposed to act fair to all, and
give each bidder an equal show. In order
to do this the committee have arranged TO
have q meeting on Monday evening, where
all bidders can come and lay their claims
before the committee, each man having the
floor to present the advantages OF his To-
cality. The meeting will take place at the
Arlington.
While half q dozen blocks have been
offered, most Of them. according 10 COM
mon report, are pretty high. The idea Of
the Government is to see FIRST what the
lot is to cost and draw plans and speciica-
tions In accordance with what is left, cut
the coat in accordance with the
cloth. There are several things to
be considered in this matter. First, q
good many have an idea that if there is q
deficiency the Government will make
another appropriation, but this is not
likely. It would be folly to pay out so
much for the lot that the building put
upon it would have to be small. Again,
the Government pays no taxes, and by
purchasing a high-priced lot, covered with
taxable improvements a large amount Of
taxable property will be destroyed.
The struggle appears to be between the
Southenders and the Northenders; each
side making the fight with vigor, and urg-
ing the claims Of this or that locality with
tact and persistency. The quandary in
which the committee find themselves,
arises from a desire on their part to make
a location which will be Of the most bene-
fit to the town, and please the greatest
number of actual taxpayers. They are
placed entirely upon their honor, and are
determined to act squarely and conscien-
tiously.

silver Advancing.

Silver Is now jumping upwards at the
rate Of one-quarter Of a cent per ounce.
the latest quotation being $1.OSk as
against ST .O8 two days previous. A prom
inent smetler in Denver asserted last
Friday his belief that it would reach 81 10
per ounce in a short time. even II it did
not surpass that valuation. The outlook
for this metal is much brighter than for
many weeks, but the friends OF silver
must redouble their efforts to mako a
stubborn fight and not be lulled into in
difference. The enemies Of silver are
organizing. and money is being raised in
vast sums to influence the next Congress
to curtail or suppress its coinage. To
meet these. foes and a less favorable Con
gross than the last is the duty OF the hour,
and preparations should be made commen-
surate to the needs of vigorous campaign

We have received from Gov. Page Il
copy of his recently printed pamphlet,
giving a resume of the defendants case in
the great railroad trial. 1t includes a
statement by the detendent, the argu-
ments of his counsel Messrs. Walker and
Burnett, Judge Neazey's charge to the
jury, the verdict and papers relating to
the case, being IA reply to a report issued
in 1854 by committee of the directors to
the stockholders In this pamphlet Gov.
Page distinctly states that he is
not candidate for director and could not
accept the position if it were offered. 1t
is well known that there is a good deal of
dissatisfaction with the present manage
ment of the road. Gov Pages pamphlet
has already increased this feeling of dis
satisfaction and there is good deal of
work being done anent the election this
week. The opposition will make strong
showing, and if there We're II little more
time to spare the Page pamphlet might
work Il complete overthrow. The pam
phlet is II masterpiece of clear statement
and telling figures complied from the
mass of evidence for the defence, and it
cannot fail to shake confidence in the
present management.
