DEAR SIn:-I have your esteemed
favor OF October %, aud beg leave To
reply. The hrst thing necessary 10 a
proper discussion Of this subjec, Is an
understanding # the eaisting state OF
affairs. Az at present existing, the
people Of Ne, ada, Utah ana other Ter
ritor.ss, are claiming herdsmshs Ii. hts
io lsnos which do not belong to them.
Whsther they are the owners ot cattle
or sheep, they are seeking the use and
occupation oi land tv whIch they have
no title, anu for which they pay no
rent. Under the vicious system oi laws
ilaugurated by the State of Nevada.
IN the distribution Of it's water. men
may get title of 40.acre strips. To a
river. Owning narrow feit oi
lard along the margin OF river,
they seek to control all the grazing
land contiguous to, aud dependent
upon the river. t.s grazing lalid car-
not be bought under profitable use,
without water for the stocks, the
ownership and control of the water
amounts to an ownership OF the stock
ranges Of your State. In this way,
the purchase of one acre controls
usually about 100 acres. This is not
an exagerstlon, AS you might suppose,
and instructive instances might bscned
One gentlemaa has purchased all the
land lying along the banks f the GUN
river, 40 aud S0-acre strips, portions
Of which lie ON both sides Of that stream
Tho amount purchased amounts to
about 12 800 acres, and controls |, 200,
600 acres, counting 20 miles on each
side OF tho river. The ciai,n to the
exclusive use Of land which does not
belong to the claimant is wholly un
tensble, whether it be government or
private land. The whole system will
break down. The people Of the United
States will not tolerate claim to the
exclusive use Of public property, and
all the benefits, profits and rents de-
rived from the properly by one citizen.

seek TO use it. So long AS land is pub

Of the United States also declare that

A GREAT SUCCESS.

Trading through the mails with out
of-town customers is by no means an
experiment in business. It has beer
successfully carried on for years b,
many houses in the dry goods business
most Of the purchases being sent BY
mail or express. The advantages l.,
be gained by bringing the customer
and merchant together through the
medium of the mails, even in the re-
mote part Of California, Nevada and
the TERRITORIES, must be manifold.
First-We claim there is q great
saving to the purchaser over ths
prices charged by country dealers.
Second Our goods always turn out
fresh and are more desirable than ths
shop worn stock that moves slowly
from the shelves of dealers who have
only limited trade for such goods.
Thirdly trading with US ysr
always get the benefit of marke,
changes. Rarely, if ever, does the
country merchant make any change in
the retail price on account of decline
in the price from the manufacturer.
Forth-We issue a Grocery Herald
and Consumer Guide on the frst oi
Zach month, for the information ol
'ut-of-tswn customers, which is sent
free to any address upon application,
showing ell recent changes, the prob.
able advance or decline on certain

articles, thereby giving valuable points
to those contemplating purchasing.
Our prices are all extended, and Gus
toners have NJ difficulty in estimating
the exact amount Of their bills. Our
prices are based to hold good TOR each
month, until the next Herald il issued.
As We have trade that requires the
issuing Of over thirty.six thousand
Herald's year, which are all sent
out, postage paid, at letter rates, the
expense is ne ANAL matter. AZ the
circulation is constantly on the in.
crease, We take it that our efforts are
appreciated.
Fifth-No house in eur line enjoys
the large trade that we do, nor 10 there
any 80 well situated to supply ths
wants Of our out-of-town trade. Our
experience in this line give US superior
knowledge over younger firms. The
greatest care Is taken in the filing Of
country orders. Our object Il to
supply your wants in such . manner
as to retain you a. permanent custo-
mer. While it is to be expected that
customers who always purchase fer
cash are likely to change around, We
can safely boast Of our success in 70.

favor us with their orders. A com.
parison Of our prices and goods with
those of other dealers cannot fail to
result favorable to us. =

been confined to the room with this wound, and
in the meantime his larder and means became

In addition to the Democratic schemes for
fraudulent voting, another has been discovered.

them for each precinct a Democratic candidates

ward, for instance. The bogus Republican tick
cts will have on them Sullivan's name, while in
the next Taegart's name will be
used, and in another Ayress. Tt is
hoped that in the number of candidates
the frauds will not be detected. In the Sullivan
Democratic wards, however, the plan is to rush

has ordered his henchmen to be at the polls so as
to begin the challenge trick early and to keep it
up until the last vote is counted. This will be
resorted to that voting can be delayed.
