THE STATE FAIR.

From informatinn received from the Sec
rotary Of the Nevada Agricultural Associa-
zion tits understood that the State Fair at
Reno this year will be much finer than ever
before. Great interest is being taken by the
people In each county, and larger number
Of fine exhibits will be displayed. Great in.
terest is being taken by the business people
Of Reno, especially, as it will bring them a
good return. Lyon county will without
doubt. be welh represented. Last year not
much interest was taken by our people, but
they found that it was one Of The best
methods in the world TO advertise the country
and each county in it. This county has many
mineral deposits, and could arrange fine
little cabinet for exhibition. She also has
some Of the finest stock and horses on the
coast; these shout also be placed on exhibi.
ton. Again our Ianche:s raise about the
finest fruit and vegetables in the world, and,
therefore, there should be an agricultural
display. Fake all these things together and
Lyon county cun send as good general dis
play 10 the Fair as any county in the State. BY
all means lei it be done.

who violated the Lawf

The 7ri6nae recently published ticket
voted four years ago at the State and County
election. The law provides thatihe ballot
shall be secret, and that after election the
ballots shall be destroyed. This is done to
ease every safeguard about the secrecy Of
the ballot.
BY what right does anyone become pos
sessed of ballot which has been voted in a
previous election
The APPEAL does not indorse Fl. S. Ma
son for voting as he did, while claiming to
be good Republican. His right to vote as
he pleases is unqueslioned, and the right to
vote his ticket secretly is unquestioned,

not joined by but few Of our business men
for the reason that they were afraid of losing
a little trade or of displeasing some of their
friends. Everybody admitted that it
would be good thing to be rid of the Mon.
golans, but said it could not be done. How
could they tell unless it was tried ? Why
did not everybody stand in and make a fair
trial Of it, and then if it did not work give

HOW 1T WORKS.

Iii reported in Dayton that the Douglass
mill will soon be shut down for good, as the
discount on silver is so great lover IS per
cent? that it will no longer pay to work
the low grade tailings on the river. The
discount and the expenses Of refining, ex-
press, ETC., is estimated at nearly 80 per
cent. This is the most outrageous piece OF
business that has ever been consumated by
the chief executive of nation. Not only
in this place, but in all parts Of the Pacific
coast States, is this injury felt. Every silver
producing State or Territory feels it more
directly, but the whole United States is to.
day in state Of poverty, simply because
there are few influential monied men at
Washington who are not in favor Of the free
coinage Of silver. And sull you will hea-
the Democrats bowling about what they are
doing for the good of the country. Take it
home to yourselves and ask yourself this
question: "Why do you vote the Demo
cratic ticket ?" Probably you will say,
swell, my father was Democrat, and there
fore | am one." What kind Of reason is
this 1t was well known that Cleveland
was an anri.silver man before he was
elected, and still Democrats who are in IA.
vor Of free coinage voted for him because
he was Democrat. They took the bread
and butter from their own mouths, for the
sake Of placing man at the head OF our
government who was more Of a friend 10
foreign countries than he was to his own.
Will they do it againl We think not.
Voters in Nevada have had taste OF the
thing long enough, and will, it is believed,
this fall send to the Senate AMI Congress
men who are in favor of silver and who are
intelligent enough to explain matters in
manner that will show the people what the
country will come TO if the system Of free
coinage Of silver is not adopted. Let every
body consoles the facts and vote accordingly.

.r Need Thee Every Hour.n

Mrs. Annie Sherwood Hawks, the author of "I Need Thee Every Hour" resides in Q modest brick house on St. Mark 6 avenue in Brooklyn. She is a middle . aged lady. Las strong motherly face. snd her dark browns eyes sparkle when engaged in animated conversation.
 Mrs. Hawks wrote the hymn which has gained such popularity in June, 1872, but thought so. little of its merit that she filed 1t away il on old portfolio. where it remained until Che evening, when Rev. Robert Lowry, writer of fhymns, learned of its existence during visit at the house of Mrs. Hawks.
 " Let me read it," said the doctor.
 His request was granted, and he i'm. mediately recognized its superior merit. Alter earnest solicitation permission was granted hv the author to embody it in nr. I.owry's volume of hymns, "The Royal njadem," then about to be pub 'lishe0.
 The success of the hymn was instan. taneous, and 1t was translated into the Spanish, German and Italian languages. Several years ago at a notable festival in the Vatican at Rome, 1t was sung in the the presence of the Pope with great effect.
 Mrs. Hawks is the author of several ther popular hymns, including Who'll be the Next to Follow Jesus?" which she considers her best production.
