In erecting this large building, like the
valuable and philosophical citizen that
he is, Mr.. Hartman displayed the spirit
and good sense that should characterize
more of our people, business men and all.
Realizing that every dollar kept in the
community would be to the community's
advantage, when he decided to build last

and all the other labor done by home

Of importing all these as is too often done.

When you see man trying to set the
town against the country, or the country
against the town, watch him. He's a
bad man. Town and country are mutual
ly dependent. Their relations are 50 in
innate that one cannot prosper unless the
other does. No man can have any pos
sible motive to run down either, except a
purely selfish Onc-unlcss lac is grossly
iguOrant or else doesn't uudcrstaud'him-
self.
There IS as much goodness and intclli-
gence i'll the country as in town, aud
vice versa. There may be more tops and
ioppcry in town, but that class never
amounts to anything anywhere. There
may be more office seekers in town. he
cause men elected to office move to town
and when their time is out they want
other offices so they can stay.
We have lived in town aud heard Of

TEae Silver Peak Homicide.
The killing OF the Pestmsster's
Clerk at Silver Peak is q very sad
affair all around but if what the AP-
PEAL learns is true there are certain
extenuating circumstances. Nc
Tigue expected a letter containing
the particulars OF the death OF his
sister IN San Francisco. The clerk
refused to give him the letter until
he identified himself and the alter
cation led to the homicide. Nc
Tigue told what the letter was like
ly to contain and offered to let the
Clerk ascertain by opening it. This
was very fair proposal and ought
to have been accepted by the Clerk.
His refusal to do So and over Of

A Tacoma (W. T.) paper says
The Democrats captured the Indian
contingent on Tuesday IN way
that wo1ld l.aye done credit to the
tricky Pheaicians. They claimed
all along taat the Indians could not
vote cons.iiutionally, on the authori-
tv Of Uni,ed States District Attor-
ney White. This threw the Re-
publicans of their guard, and on
Saturday night last, after midnight,
the Democratic braves donned their
war paint, and under the leader
ship of John A. Parker and William
Meade. visited the unsophlsticated
ard transporting red men at their
wigwams on the reservation. The
visiting statesmen took with them
large quantities of firewa.er and pro-
visions, and entertained the abort
cines until a late hour with ieasting,
dancing singing, etc. It is said
that one of the delegation swung
the dusky sauavs in the choral
dances with a zest that would have
done credit to one CT the par
Elephants in the witches dance of
uTam O'Sllanter." The result was
that the Reservation went Demo-
cratic, and the Republicans realized
too late that it pays to be sociable
with the red men.

Il { s7sHinE Job.

A candidate for Office in Nevada
must look out for some very cum.
ming jobs on election day. Fair
banks, OF tie Lyon County Times,
had very narrow escape.
Tho Central Committee which
brought him the tickets to print,
omitted the name of the Justice of
the Peace OF Wabuska District, be-
cause no aspirants for the place had
declared themselves.
The Justice nominations were
left blank, so that if any one got
into the field their names could be
written in on election day.
As soon as the ticket appeared,
tho report was circulated that Fair
banks had made a trade with the
Democrats and agreed to leave the
name OF the Justice off the ticket
ia exchange for Democratic votes.
This was absolutely untrue but it
spread like wildfire, and before the
matter could be explained, Mr..
Fairbanks lost over 20 Republican
votes, and came very near losing
his election.

The Kinds OF Apples that
Thrive in Nevada.

AKA fclat4Jis ~ Liz iaoc SaO"---ss -
dustry of apple raising in the State
of Nevada. We have good cliea-
ate for apples, and be planting the
very best kinds, there is no State in
the Union that can surpass US in
quality. The following kinds have
been tried in Nevada, and fifty
others:
Alexander; very productive and
large, and good for eating, cooking
and drying.
SINNERS Pippin; large and has
the above good qualities.
Rome Beauty: very profitable
apple.
r. I. Gresaing, Yeiloac Belfower.
Smiths Cider, Spitzenburg and
BaIduia, are at their best in Ne
vada.
The alexander, which is perfect
in this State, is bad in Oregon.
Ben Darts, which has a good
name in the Eastern States, is not
liked in California.
More could be added but very
few Of the bost kinds are more
profitable.
New York ships r. I. Greetings
and Bold,cins to Liverpool. Boston
ships Baldlgias to England. Some
firms have shipped as high as l00,-
600 barrels OF this excellent apple
to Great Britain in one year.
The industry of apple growing in
Nevada will be large and profitable |
il we begin right. For drying, the
alexander and SINNERS Pippin,
both large and productive and
which ripen early, may safely be
;lassed as the very best.
From Melbourne. Australia, to
london, freight is s. per ton.
freight rates generally accommo-
late trade, and the time ID not far
Instant when a first-class article in
Nevada dried fruit will sell in the
English market. In the meantime,
'inegar, cider, brandy and alcohol
an be produced from apples.
For very late keeping, Smiths
'iider will be to Nevada what Nem-
opn Pippin has been to California.
:. I. Greeaings aad Baldwins are
lso good keepers. Spit-enburg is a
Month or two earlier. Red Jane is
he first TO ripen.
For pears, Bartlett, Sickle and
Tinter Nellis.
Peaches, Ayerauder and Early
Grapes, Concord, and few more
I tbs New England varieties.
Apples for shipping and keeping
aust be carefully gathered from a
and not shaken to the
refund or knocked of with stick.
ruit should be classed aud not :
acked little and big in the same :
OK. Number the first class L, the
scond 2, and don't take advantage
S they did in California In early
avs. A few swindles will not only :
estroy your own trade, but damage
ae State. II
To pack apples for shipping they
lust be packed in rows of the
anne size, and the last row should
c an inch or so above the sides OF {
OK. Nail one end, then it will re-
uire the weight OF a man to bring i
he other end down to be nailed. r
can only find three men in Nevada '
lat know how to pack box of APP 5

We send to Oregon for vinegar b
i'd cider, to California for brandy q
I'd alcohol, and let our own fruit p

rong rising generation go to weeds a
