from Indianapolis to a correspondent in
Newcastle under Line.
Dear Sir: Your letter Of November

a student Of our family history, and can
only say in response to your inquiry
that it has been stated and accepted by
some of my relatives who have given
study to the subject that our family has
descended from General Thomas Harri.

GrowIers.

Major Wilson, Of the Geological Sur.

the States where he has travelled he
never met 30 many chronic GROWERS
as In Nevada. He says:
Scarcely any State in the Union pre-
sents such advantages Of soil and climate
as Nevada, and yet the people you talk
with all unite in running down the State.

resentative men here, and with few ex.

"You have the foundation for q bic

Our Timber suits.

The Silver State has the following cris,
ism Of the Eureka timber suits: II
seems hardly credible that the United
States Government would sanction such
proceedings unloss warranted in doing SO
by the laws Of Congress. That com.
plants have been made to the consti-
tuted authorities Of the wholesale denu.
dation OF the timber region in the
vicinity Of Eureka has been publicly an.
nounced by the Commissioner Of the
General Land Office, who claims that he
is simply performing his sworn duty to
the people by having proceedings insti.
tuted against the alleged trespassers. II
such is the fact and the enforcement Of
the law causes a hardship to miners and
others. then the proper course for Con.
gress to pursue is to repeal the obnox.
ious law. On the other hand, however,
II, as understood at Eureka, the proceed.
ings were conceived and inaugurated

the companies should have redress
against the Government for the illegal
and unwsrranted acts Of It's agents.

DON'T DO IT.

We hear that an effort is to be made ct
the coming session of the Legislature to
increase the number Of our District
Judges from three to five. The chief OBJ.
ject is to make more places for needy
lawyers. II should not be done. Any
reform In our judicial system that does
not look to the complete abolition OF the
Supreme Court at the earliest date pos
sible, will be founded in error. Our Su.
preme Court costs more than it is worth.
II has nothing to do. We should have.
for the present, four District Judges and
no Supreme Court as . separate tribunal.
The District Judges should meet In banc
twice q year, and the three not partici.
pating In the trial Of the case below,
should hear and determine every ques-
tion of appeal. This plan would work
quite as well as the present system, and
save the taxpayers forty thousand dol
lars q year. We don't want more officers,
but fewer. Legislators who feel any inter.
est In the welfare Of the State will strive
TO remove constitutional obstacles that
stand In the way Of re~trenchment in all
directions. Cheaper government, State,
county and municipal, is the pressing
need of the hour in Nevada.

sAGEBRUsu TInBER FOR TIE
CABINET.

There are strong indications that Sen
ator John p. Jones Of Nevada will be ten
dered . position in President Harrison's
Cabinet as Secretary Of the Treasury.
The Independent would be pleased TO see
the Sagebrush State honored with . Cab
met position.
The above is from the Elko ~Independ
ent. The SENTINEL would also be glad
to see our State represented in any place
Of distinction In the Government. Sen
stor Jones is as well equipped for the
Cabinet as some Eastern men who will
be selected. But It is not the size Of our
Sagebrush timber that is likely to prove
fatal to our claims. It lie the insignif-
canoe Of our population that will initiate
most seriously against us. The small
States are not usually considered In the
selection Of . Cabinet. Besides, 1t is
nonsense to talk Of Nevada being as
signed the Treasury portfolio. That is
the big plumb Of all the Federal patron
age. A more serious obstacle still, is the
fact that Senator Jones is q silver man.
The financial policy Of the Government,
is NOT going to be revolutionized in any
such sudden and summary manner. New
York and all Of the extreme East would
go into Mysteries if 1t were attempted,
and General Harrison would raise such .
~clattsr about his ears as he had never
heard before. He will not incur any such
risk as that, IL he be as level.hesded as
be has been given credit for. The Sec
rotary Of the Treasury will be either a
New York man or John Sherman Of Ohio,
which latter contingency would be about
the same as giving it to Wall street d.
rect. II the Pacific Coast gets recogni.
ton at all in the Cabinet, it will be for q
position other than the Treasury Depart
ment. Meanwhile We would be very glad
to see either Senator Jones or Senator
Stewart placed in charge Of one OF the
great Departments of the Government IL
| either desired the change from the Senate.

Buse,.,Ss STATE OFFICIALS.

It now appears that all Of the proposed
amendments to our State constitution,
voted on at the late election, have failed
for the want Of due notice 10 the people.
The law says that every proposed amend
ment shall be Published in some paper OF
general circulation at least ninety days
preceding the election. This requirement
was not observed by the State officers.
One Of the amendments submitted provi-
ded that the Legislature in the future
should meet on the third instead Of the
first Monday 10 January. The object OF
the change was to give the State officers
more time In which to prepare their re-
ports between the expiration OF the fiscal
| year and the meeting Of the Legislature.
The proposition was very properly carried
by q large majority. but its validity is
| questioned because Of the failure in the
matter Of publication. II Is now . dis
puted question whether the Legislature
should meet on the first or third Monday.
| The Virginia Chronicle calls upon the
Attorney General to make up . case for
1 the decision OF the Supreme Court Of
once. 1t is an annoying dilems into
which we have fallen, and all through
the bungling Of our State officials headed
by Governor Stevenson. As q matter oil
fact. Of all the amendments hitherto pro
posed, not one Of them has been rightly
submitted or has succeeded in being
placed in the organic Act Of the State
The short and effective way to cure thu
defects in our constitution is to hold
Constitutional Convention for the pur
pose. II should be done, and in th'
sneediest manner possible.

A NEW SILVER BILL.

Senator Reagan Of Texas has just intro.
duced o bill in the U. S. Senate for the
free coinage Of silver. The bill Is short
and to the point. 1t provides that silver
shall be treated at the Mints precisely as
gold is treated. That is good enough,
and all the West demands. We are glad
that Senator Reagan has taken hold OF
the subject, for he is q slayer from "the
old house." He was the author Of the
Interstate Commerce Act, minus the Com
mission, and fought Ii through the House
session after session. The Republican
Senate spoiled the bill by putting in the
five Commissioners, and giving them
power to suspend the long and short haul
feature. Ii is no account as It stands.
But Nevada's Senators voted for il all the
same. Old man Reagan put down in
the law what the railroads should be re-
quired to do. The Senate took out the
bowels of the bill and left everything to
tive Commissioners. The Railroads have
use for but three Of them. But we have
drifted from the Senator's silver bill. We
know he will push Ii, and we also know
that he will never see the day when he
can get fifteen Republican Senators to
vote for il. About all OF the Democrats
will stand in, as they always do, but the
support from the other side will be mainly
conspicuous for its slimness.

"MARE THEM KEEP THEIR
PROMIsEn.s

This is the heading Of . circular that lie
being circulated very extensively by the
workingmep in the East. 1t has refer
ence to the promises made by the RePub-
Iicsn leaders during the recent campaign.
The workingmen now demand that taxes
shall be increased, and that at least two
hundred millions OF dollars shall be spent
annually by the Government on internal
improvements and coast defenses, to the
end that the unemployed labor Of the
country may be provided with something
TODD. They argue quite nationally that the
Republican party stands pledged to do
these things.
1t will be q sorry day for this Republic
when the people learn to look to WASH
ington for a remedy for every i'll, real or
fancied. That would constitute psternal
government in It's highest development.
1t Is utterly incompatible with the pur-
poses and aims Of q free Republic. Indi.
dividual liberty, individual enterprise
and individual independence comprise
the foundation principles Of correct ideas
OF free institutions. Any teaching or
policy that tends to dwarf these in the
citizen is destructive OF every just prov
ince Of government. The less people are
governed and the less they lean upon
their government the better. The people
themselves are the government in this
country; and the government is not an
almshouse. Frugality, simplicity, pat
riotism and public morality cover the
legitimate functions Of government under
q Republic, and the farther we drift from
these old landmarks the one we will
go into decay and ruin.
The Republican leaders were guilty OF
the most dangerous demagoguery in the
late campaign. If the policies they ad-
vanced and the hopes they inspired were
carried out logically for forty years, the
remnant OF free government remaining
in this country at that time would not
sell at public auction for a smooth quar-
tar

A Chance For some Member OF 'he
Legislature 90 Become Immortal

Legislature 90 Hecoune fnf'""s~-
II n one Of the numerous states
men in the Nevada Legislature de-
sires to immortalize himself, We have
A scheme by which he may do 1t. II
is an experiment that may or may
not materialize, but il it does future
generations will raise up to call him
blessed. There are two immensely
useful productions that abound IN
in certain parts OF Nevada when 90
not make their appearance at all
| in other portions. We allude 10
| whitesage and pinenut timber. White.
| sage, which is plentiful in nearly all oil
| the valleys of Eastern Nevada is the
| finest Winter feed for stock in this
| country. There is u total absence oil
| il in most of the valleys in the west,
| ern part OF the State. The soil and
climatic conditions of the State are
| substantially the same both east and
west. Why not try the experiment
| OF scattering the seed in the western
valleys? The seed could be pro-
cured at small cost from the Indians.
I'm ike ann an attempt might be
made to grow nutpine timber. There
are many ranges of mountains IN the
State. notably these north OF the
Humboldt, which do not produce q
stick of timber. Maybe they never
had a chance to show what they
can do, for the reason that the germ
has been lacking. A few dozen
bushels of pinenuts could be pro
cured from the Indians for q trife in
each Of the counties and it could be
made the duty Of the County Sur
yeyor, or some other official, to scatter
them to the winds over the mountain
ranges in Spring or Fall, or both al
the case might seem to require. There
is no valid reason for assuming that
nutpine will not grow on the barren
ranges in this State. 1t should a
least grow where it has grown before,
In a thousand places it has disap-
peared with advancing civilization.
All of the hills about Virginia and
Gold Hill were covered with a heavy
growth of nutpine in 1860. The ex'
periments we have suggested are
worth trying at all events. The,
need not cost to exceed n or two
thousand dollars, and need not b.
continued for the present beyond {
single year. II our State is worth
anything, all OF its resources deserve
to be developed. Tho man wh'
makes a blade Of grass grow WHERE
none grew before is a public bene
