Notwithstanding the fact that there
was no failure in the usual heavy Pota.
to crop in California last year, and that
such potatoes are selling in the market
for only 50 cents per hundred pounds
there appears to be steady demand for
the Nevada article. Potatoes are now
being shipped by the carload from Day
ton, Carson, Washoe aud Truckee VAL
legs to Sacramento, which is the gener.
al distributing point. Our Nevada ar
ticle commands there about $i.25 per
one hundred pounds. Through the effort
OF General Freight Agent Bender, grain
and potatoes can now be shipped from
Wabuska mason Valley and Dayton
and Intermediate points, Carson and
stations between Carson and Reno, at
the one rate Of 80 cents per hundred
(Ioo) pounds when shipped in carload
lots, to Sacramento and San Francisco.
This action places the ranchers Of
Truckee, Washoe, Carson and Mason
Valley upon the same level as regards
railroad transportation to California for
the surplus products, SO there Is no dan
ger Of our ranchers being obliged to
carry over or throw away any potatoes
this season. Last Spring two carloads OF
onions were shipped from the gardens
adjacent to Carson to Sacramento and
San Francisco, which paid the shipper
handsome profit. The question nat
urally presents itself, whether it is not
the proper thing for our ranchers to
our ranchers to spread out, and increase
their acreage. The Nevada potato is
bound to become a necessity to the Cal.
ifornia consumer and is bound therefore
to bring the rancher a remunerative
price. We hope and expect to see,
within a few years the production Of
grain and potatoes in this vicinity in
creased many fold over present produc :
ton.

How He Fooled the Nevada Poll
ticians.

saSA0hbs
1t is reported that the quarrel between
Fair and Cassidy has been patched up,
and that from now on they are to fall
on each others necks whenever they
meet.
The Carson appeal places no stock in
this nonsensical report, and says: "The
row is too deeply seated TO admit Of any
immediate reconciliation.
1t appears that when Cassidy expect
ed to secure the Office Of Railway Com
missioner, he was informed that Col.
Fair was well disposed in the matter.
He called on the Senator, and Fair pro-
posed the following plan:
"Friend George, (laying his hand at
fectionately on Cassidy's shoulder) let
me fix this thing up. Well get good
strong petition up, and have all the
prominenent Democrats TO sign it. Let
me head the list. and Pll take it to
Cleveland personally. You'll be in the
place inside Of week after I get to
Washington"
Well, the petition was written; Fair
signed it and went about the State for
more names. Cassidy stood well with
his party, and there was formidable
array of sage.brush bourbons on the
document.
Fair took the petition, and all smiles
and bows told "friend George" how
much pleasure he would derive from
having chance TO present it to Cleve-
land.
Fair slid away from the State, put
the petition in the stove, and going to
Cleveland strongly recommended an
other man, so Cassidy lost the appoint
mcnt, and when he discovered how he
had been tricked he called on Cleve.
land and gave the Executive brief but
strongly drawn pen sketch OF the slip
perry Nevada Senator, denouncing him
as a general - stencil in
the nos,rils Of everybody in his own
State.
Then came the Mint appointment.
Some friends of Gignoux Of the Univer.
sity urged him for the position Of Mint
Superintendent, and Fair was more than
delighted.
al like that man Gignoux, and he
was the man hid all along fixed on
for the place
Their came the Garrard appointment.
1t "as known that Fair hated Garrard
and Adams, and this was why the Dem.
ocrats were so much astonished. Fair
p.oiessed 10 be quite angry that Garrard
got the place; when it was discovered
that he pulled the wires that Got him
there. He knew that Garrard was a
possessor of many party secrets and he
feared him.
Fair has developed into as smooth a
liar in politics as he has always been in
mining"

small Change.

1t is generally conceded, says the
Carson 7tebnne, that fve.cent pieces
ought to be circulated in Nevada, and
it is high time that measures were taken
TO demand the same. The buyer Of
small articles, such as cigars or a glass
OF beer, has no right to pay fifteen cents
when ten is the price of the article, and
the same applies to all articles Pur'
chased in small quantities. Why a
ive.cent piece should be current in
California. Oregon, Washington Terri
tory, and in fact on the whole Pacific
Coast, and not in Nevada, is. an enigma.

The American Laundry.

The attention of our readers is called
to the advertisement in another column
of Mrs. Swart and Charley Coon. The
parties have opened laundry in Day
ton where none but white labor will be
employed, and they ask for the patron
age OF our citizens. 1t is to be hoped
that the venture will meet with success,
and it will if everybody will take their
washing to the new firm. Many people
who have been complaining about their
washing not being properly done by the
Cinnamon, and have expressed will
ingness to palronize a white laundry if
one was started, vii! now have chance
to show whether their word is good or
not, and also show that they were not
doing idle talk on the Chinese question.
Let everybody patronize the white laun-
dry by all means.

grcgation the rector performed the mar
riage ceremony for his late assistant in
the presence of a congregation that
filled the church from the chancel to the
doors.
The other case is a clergyman who
had fine congregation and was getting
along swimmingly, till somebody found
out that he had separated from his wife.
As far as can be learned this wife was
not saint, and she exhausted his stock
of christian patience. There is no evil
dence that he ever knocked her out or
gave her what Paddy gave the drum,
but they parted. Then little clique
in the church tried to run the minister
and he would not be run; then came
war, open and secret, and at last he was
accused of undue intimacy with mem
beI of the church choir. The congre-
CATION dropped off one by one till bank
ruptcy threatened the church, and on
Sunday the hunted minister turned at
bay and defied his accusers from the
pulpit.

to earn a little money to live on during
his vacation. He fearlessly announces
that he goes across the water for ducats,
as he has no money, What has he done
with the vast sums he has made in the
last twenty yearsP After his trial his
salary was raised to s25, 900 per annum
his lectures would easily net him Sl0,-
900, and his writings, marriages and
presents $4,000 more. He had no rent
to pay, his hat was chalked wherever he
travelled, he was entertained everywhere
with no cost at hotels and private
houses, and nov comes the question,
how did he dispose of nearly 81 900 per
week? He is not great entertainer; he
says himself that his money is all gone.
Is it possible that the reverend gentle
man takes an occasional flyer in stocksP
Since they have stopped the French
pools on the Coney Island race-course
there is not the slightest suspicion of
any of his stray ducats having gone that
way. Mr.. Beecher always stands up
for the honor of Brooklyn; it goes with
out saying that he likes good horse.

The probability of Charles S. Wolfe be-
ing Prohibition candidate for Governor
means notice to the Republican State
Convention to put their best foot fore
most in the formation of their ticket
and declaration ofpolicy. 1t is a favor
ite amusement of certain organs and
politicians to sneer at Mr.. Wolfe as a
political crank, but he is not the man
to be put down with sneers. He is a
bold, aggressive and able campaigner
and thousands of peopli who will de-
plore the stand he has taken will adj
mire the courage of the man and be in
scnsibly moved in sympathy with him.
The cause he has espoused has now
reached stage when it can no longer
be ignored by the statesman or the poll

the sympathy and judgment of humani-

ry issue did when handful of abolition
agitators were sneered at by the politi-
cal parties and boycotted by the mercan-
tile community, who measured their
principles by the cOtton-bale standard.
But their cause grew stronger and
stronger until 1t overwhelmed one of the
great parties and compelled recogni-
tion of the anti-slavery principle by the
organization which took its place. His
tory repeats itself. 1t may not be to-

Ignoring a great moral issue which by

THE sale of the Valentine iron ore
banks to syndicate of capitalists and
the development of that property will
give Centre county a trial for which its
people have long been asking. The f.
nancial men of that locality have de-
clared that pig-iron could be made there
for $3.50 per ton. and there seems to
have been reason for the faith that was
in them. Heretofore they have been
handicapped by the restrictive policy of
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
which charged SO for carrying ton of
iron from Centre county to New York,
while at the same time it was carrying
iron from Richmond, Va, to New York
for only so cents per ton. In the face
of these determinations no capitalists
could be found who were willing to put
their money into iron ventures in that
locality; but, since line has been sur
v.'yed from the Beech Creek Road to
Bellefonte, the possibility of obtaining
competitive rates drew the attention of
capitalists to that territory with the re-
suit indicated. There is no reason why
Centre county cannot successfully COM
pete with the South in the production
Of cheap pig-iron. A famous English
iron master who visited Bellefonte a

THE bill known as the Sundry Civil
Appropriation contains good share of
items which have rather a military or
naval than a civil look. Thus, in the
measure just reported to the House, the
sum Of s318E05 is assigned to navy
yards and stations; another, of S244,-
$50, TO armories and arsenals; third,
Of SI7s, ,S56, to military POSTS, buildings
and roads; fourth. of SS7, ,66T, to the
military prison at Fort Leavenworth.
The item for expenses of military con-
{ is also reckoned civil appropria-
ton, as are those for the Army and
Navy Hospital and the Army Medical
Museum and Library Building, An
item for the Artillery School at Fort
Monroe finds its way into this convent
enL receptacle. Perhaps properly
enough the $l,573,5Oo for Soldiers
Homes comes here, as it is intended for
disabled volunteers, and the same is
true of the S202, 900 for artificial limbs,
and the S205, 440 for national cemeteries.
The expenses of Gen. Hazen's Signal
Service, though under officers and men
of the army, belong to this bill, lin whose
title the omission of the word civil
would hardly be misleading.
