The New Railroad Disease.
The new epidemic among the
locomotive engineers which is
spreading all over the country, is
puzzling medical men.
1t appears that when a Chicago
Quincy and Burlington freight car
is hitched on behind locomotive
the engineer is seized with giddi-
ness and partial paralysis of the
right hand, which prevents him
from pulling the lever OF his engine.
He generally is obliged to seek his
home at once and partake of warm
brandy or some other stimulen..
The disease is epidemic but does
not last long.
The removal of the G.. B. & @.
freight car restores the engineer to
his normal condition and regular
pulse, and his convalescence is as
sured as long as the offending car
is kept on a side track.

FENCING wAsnoE LAKE.
A Protest Against tho Act Of

A Protest Against tho Act Of
tho Ranchcrs.
To THE EDITOR OF THE APPEAL =
The bes. hunting and fishing ground
of the Carson end of Washoe Lake
is fenced in. What becomes of the
wild rice? We cannot get to the
game. The Fish Commissioners
stocks the Lake with fish and we
are not permitted to catch them. 1t
is about time to teach these greedy
ranchmen that they have no more
right to shut off the Lake from pub
lie use than the public have to close
all roads to their ranches. A man
has no more right to close the Lake
shore than he has to fence in the
sea. Those ranchmen have become
unbearable. We want the beach
and an open drive round the Lake
shore. 1t will cost more than their
ranches are worth to prevent it. 1t
is said that Washoe Lake is not on
the map. The Lake belongs to the
United States all the same, and the
fish and the game belong to the
people, and the shore of the Lake
belongs to the people to stand omit to
fish, and walk on to shoot, to land
a boat on, to camp on, or to drive a
team on. The pleasu-e-seekers of
the deep mines OF Storey county.
and the hard working men in the
shops of Carson have been outraged
without reason, till patience and |!
quietness have reached the utmost |
limit. l speak the sentiments of
Storey and Ormsby counties when
say we will have a public drive
round Washoe Lake unobstructed
by fences. If we cannot get our
rights in peacable way we will APP
peal to the Legislature failing there
we will law them until the last
hoof of their starved stock is used
up in litigation. This is strong
language, but when a man has
hired a team and got within 800
yards of the Lake and is stopped by
a locked gate behind which is
wild looking man with a shot gun
to fill him with lead, it
s excusable.

Changes an Pyra mid Lake.

The surface Of pyramid Lake is
:.adually lowe ing, while there
seems to bea corresponding riseini the
waters Of Winnemucca or Mud Lake.
Some stockmen and vaqueros say
that the change becomes very
evident as they ride along the shores
of Pyramid and see bluffs where a
decade ago there was gentle slope,
etc. Many say they car notice toe
change in the rock which gives this
lake its name. At Mccormack s
place, near the mouth of Mud Lake
slough, a person could easily ford
twelve years ago, whereas now at
this point there is a width OF 100
feet and depth of so feet of water.

The Indians Destroying the
A correspondent of the Gazette
writes from Pyramid Lake as fol-
lows:
The Piutes line the river banks
at shallow places to spear the
spawning trout. It seems like a
beastly shame to see between one
and two hundred Indians engaged
in this work, and know that three
or four tons of fish are captured in
this way. Whenever a shallow,
sandy bar affords a spawning
ground, you can find Jim and his
ugly weapon. There is something
wrong with the present fish law.
It should be SO revised to do away
with this wholesale slaughter, for
you cannot call it anything else.
After depositing her eggs the fe-
male keeps the male company while
he rubs the eggs into the sand. In
order to do this he lunges against |
the spot and rubs with his side or
back. The female is stationary !
between these two lunges and it
does not require much science to
plunge a spear into her at this time
or into the male when he rubs.
No wonder our fisherman say the
aw is faulty and that ignorance of
The matter allowed its passage.

protected, defended and revered the

The author of this effusion must be

has very poor memory. If they revere
it they have a queer way of showing
it, for the first gun that was fired on
Fort Sumter, was loaded and trained
by democrat who is II supporter of
Grover Cleveland. When an unarlned
regiment from Boston was passing
through Baltimore to the defense of
Washington, it WAS (revered) tired on
by democrats. When the Senate was
called in extra session by President
Lincoln, and it was proposed to pro-
tect the flag, all the democratic sena-
tors of any prominence walked ont and
proceeded to reverence the flag by join
ing the confederate forces. They rev.
erenced the flag so much that they FIR.

reverence. When the news of Lin
coins reelection was received at An
Jacksonville, it delighted the poor un-
ffortunates so much that all commence
ed singing Rally Round the Flag"
This was too much, the democrats on
guard reverenced the flag so highly
that they fired on them. killing sever
al More reverence! In political pro-
|cessionsof the party in the Southern
states, at the present time. they have
so much reverence for the ''Star Span

the Bonnie Blue Flag Is seen in pro-
fusion. If the democratic party has
70 much veneration for the flag, why
did they not steal 10 early in
