Miners Wanted

Now that we have low rates of
freight on ore, says the HALEY Times
miners cannot be secured. Professor
Hagen wants some. Hank Lnfkins
wants some, and many other mine
owners are looking for gangs of 5 to
20; bui they are not to he had. as our
miners left by the carload, last Spring,
and since, wien it began t. be feared
that the railroad people were "play.
ing Us, that is, when it seemed as if
they were only temporizing. Now
many OF the old bsys would like to
return, no doubt, but they have not
yet heard of the low rates, and many
have good jobs where they are.
The Minnie Moore will doubtless
soon increase its force now. so with
the Relief, Queen ( the Hills, Nav.
Aug, Red Cloud, War Dance, North
Star, Silver King, and large number
of other claims. So that it is prob
ably safe to say that betwees 200 and
300 miners could get steady employ
ment here at present, in addition to
the number working.

are applicable to every county in the
State:
The Republicans and Democrats of

A Remarkable Cane.

Carson Appeal Last evening a cane
was expressed to Senator Stewart as
gift from the officers of the State
Prison. 1t is composed of 1914
pieces of wood, for which the earth
was ransacked. There are 50 distinct
varieties of wood of different colors
inlaid IN so complicated a way that
no description of the work can give
any idea of its intricacy and beauty.
The handle Is of native Nevada silver,
and abalOne shell. The cane lies in
handsome case also made by the
prisoners, and goes to Washington ac-
companied by handsomely engross-
ed letter from the donors and list

Of the multitude of rcputed Re-
publican candidates for County Com
missioners but one has so far had the
grit to so publicly declare. This sim
gle exception is A. r. Watson, of
Robinson, who throws his banner to
the breeze in to-day's News. Mr..
Watson is an old pioneer of White
Pine, coming to the county in 1858,
and sharing the varying fortunes of
many of its mining camps ever since.
He is capable for the place and has
certainly strong claim on his party
for the nomination.

How They are Lost in fhe
Carson Val ey
Parties who have visited the Car
son Valley say that they never be-
, fore saw such wanton destruction
OF fish as can he seen there now.
The ranchers OF the valley have
diverted the waters OF the Carson
river by large irrigatlng bitches,
and having failed TO pnt any screens
at the head of the bitches, the fish
/ swarm in and are carried miles
away from the river by the tens OF
thousands.
When the water is turned off the
fish have no way of getting back,
and perish in the fields, where they
lie and ret Or get into pools, where
they are speared by Indians and
white men.
This wanton destruction of fish
could ali be avoided by placing
screens at the head of the bitches
as the law directs, and Fish Com
missioner Cary should see at once
that the law is enforced, and that
every man engaged in this work is
prosecuted. These people should
be made to understand that fish are
