DEMOCRATIC ECONOMY.

A Surplus in the Treasury,
and Salaries Cut Down.
The reason for the Democratic
surplus in the Treasury can be
easily understood, when one con-
slders the manner in which POST
masters salaries have been cut
down all over the country. In this
State nearly all the postoffices have
been reduced from second to third
class offices, with salaries reduced
accordingly. Postmaster Whites
salary has been cut down from So.
400 year to $1,000, and his re-
quest for $500 additional for clerk
hire has been refused. The same
refusal 10 pay fair salaries has been
extended to every Postmaster in
Nevada who has applied for rein
statement OF the old figures which
held under a Republican rule.
The result is that MANY Post
masters have been compelled to dis
charge their clerks, and now Ne
yada has the most wretched mail |
service it ever he'd, and the public
are the sufferers. All this time the !
surplus occasioued by beating down
he Postmasters of the United
four millions of dol
ars-is still piling up, that the
Democrats may point with pride to
'the Treasury surplus"

THE SNOW.
Good Water supply Insured

Good Water supply Insure,
for the Coming Summer.
The present series of storms in
sures a good water supply for mex
Summer, which means good crops
and the river mills running. The
storms which reach Carson are gen
orally followed by a few DAYS Of
sunshine, which melts the snow
but up in the mountains each sue
cessive storm piles up its layer of
snow, at an altitude not affected by
the sunshine. The snow remains
there until the farmer and miner
need the water.
Each year brings a better under
standing regarding the methods of
harvesting and utilizing water in
Nevada. The water that a few
years ago ran to waste is now in
many parts of the State stored in
reservoirs until it is needed, Just as
wheat and barley are stored to be
used when the demand comes for
them.
The time is not far distant
in Nevada when by reason of
the application of greater intelli-
gence to the resources and needs of |
a man who allows water to |
run to waste will be regarded to be |
As shortsighted as a man who would |
ct his grain rot in the ground be-
;ause his stock could not eat it all
Up before the Winter set it. The
success of the reservoir system in
he Eastern part of the State has
aused many who laughed at the
iea to make similar experiments
nth excellent results.
The class Of people who imagine
nat water is only good to drink and
ash in is growing less. Men are
eginning to appreciate the fact
lat the chief source of Nevada's
ealth is to come from the clouds.
very snowstorm that sweeps over
lr mountains Is worth million
pillars III good, hard coin, provided
lat the storm is properly utilized.
mother thing to be considered is
re fact that the rain belt, which
W years ago reached the Eastern
lrt of Nevada, is moving West at
speed estimated to be about II or
miles year. This rain belt has
ached Elko, and is coming this
ny. Wherever the rain reaches
comes to stay, and every acre of
nd it reaches becomes a source of
,alth to the State. +.

HAL CLAYrON,s BEARD.
Its Tremendous Growth Since
His Death.

Eiis Death.
Old timers will doubtless remem
Der the death of Hal Clayton som,
thirteen years ago. He was a gam
bier by profession, of the better
class of sports, and when he died
OF fever was buried in vault in
the cemetery and his body placed
in costly metallic casket under a
glass case.
| His wife, who was frantic with
grief, placed her diamonds on his
shirt front. These stones were val
ned at $500. Fearful least the gems
would be taken from the vault, she
placed a watch at the tomb, and
it was maintained for many weeks.
Clayton was a Southerner, and the
body was disposed of after the
Southern fashion above ground.
A few days ago George Dobbs,
who has the care of the cemetery,
was possessed with curiosity to
visit Hal Clayton's tomb, and Sc
curing the keys of the vault took a
look at the remains. He was as
tonished to find that Clayton's
beard and moustache had grown
under the glass case to such an ex-
tent that they reached below his
knees. The massive beard was a
rich brown color, extending in
wavy masses over the body, and
having a perfectly fresh, healthy
as it might have have
aad on living man. The beard
lad been growing in this way al
most twenty years, and for aught
anybody knows will hold it's strange
,ost mortem vitality.
Clayton had a romantic life. He [
vas engaged to handsome young
irl in the South, and left her to |
eek his fortune in the West. She I
ecame tired of his absence. and '
citing out to find him, drifted !
omeless and friendless from one G
Inning camp to another like a leaf q
I a storm. After years of this life t
ne met her former lover, but was A
, changed by her wandering life t
lat he refused to marry her. f,
After his reputation of his old u
Teetheart he became sick, and a
hen lying at deaths door she came 9
his bedside and nursed him back r,
health. Filled with gratitude at "
n devotion lie renewed the affec- it
'n OF his youth and married her. Ia
le proved a devoted wife, and "
hen he died she built at large ex-
nse the vault where his remains
w lie, and in which his rich. :,
own beard has been growing all
csc years. Whether the dia- n
)ndS are on his shirt front is not
own, ss the beard hides tho BODY -
m the knees up.
