The committee on territories viii take
up the Dakota bill this week, and ex-
pect to complete its consideration be-
fore Saturday There are four propo-
sitions being considered by the COM
mittee. First, to amend the senate bill
so as to wipe out the present state or
ganization and submit the question of
division de nova to vote of the people.
Second, to pass an enabling act for the
south half Of the territory Third, to
divide the territory into two parts on
the Missouri river, and admit the east
ern part. Fourth, to simply divide the
territory and postpone the admission Of

John w. Tarker's New Map of Me-
ynda.
Reno JournaI. Sept. Is.

NANbs
Reno Journal. Sept. IS.
j. W. Parker yesterday received the first
invoice OF his new map of Nevada. 1t
has been completed with great care in
order to insure its being strictly correct,
and furnishes a vast fund Of valuable in
formation regarding the topography Of the
State. There never has been a map OF the
State prepared heretofore worthy Of the
name, and it il intended to fill q long-felt
want on the part of citizens. 1t has been
Autographed at large expense by the ia
nous publishing house of Rand, McNally
d. Co., OF Chicago, and does great credit
TO their well.known skill in the art. The
map IL drawn on q scale OF twelve miles to
the inch, and shows sll surveyed town
ships up to date OF issue, also all mount
ain ranges, valleys, rivers, creeks, brooks,
streams and lakes; il also shows the cor
rect position Of all Indian and Military
Reservations, and all cities. towns-and set
elements; also all railroads and the prin-
cipal wagon roads. The county bounda-
ries are also depicted with absolute correct.
ness. which is something thatino..other
map has ever Appropriated to.
The map is printed on the best Of paper,
and mounted with stick, top and bottom,
with tape on edges and vanished; it Is
also printed on thin, strong paper, which
folds up in stout covers for pocket form.
The counties are printed with different
c%olors, making it altogether an ornament
to any school.house. Office, saloon or pri-
vate room, as we'll as valuable for instruc.
ton and reference.
The map has been compiled by John W.
Parker, the Chief Draughtsmsn OF the
United States Surveyor Generals Office at
Reno, who holds the copyright, and 1t is
the condensation Of all information IN file
in that Office, as well as the celebrated
War Department maps prepared by Lieu
tenant Wheeler; he has also at his COM
mand other recent and reliable data on
which to rely. The price of the map is SIS,
and copies will be sent to any address,
postpaid, upon receipt Of the money.
Parties ordering will be careful to state
which style is desired-mounted or pocket
form. Address John W. Parker. Reno.
