GOLD AND SILVER COINAGE.

The Democratic press of Nevada
seem greatly distressed for fear more
goI aud silver will be coined under
Harrison Administration than during
the four years of Wall street manage.
ment.-[ Reno Gazetto.
Our neighbor is certainly off his base,
and the above squib is nothing more
tLan the coinage of a politically dis
cSSed brain. The Democratic press of
Nevada is not, like the Gazetts, 30
bound to party that it would cut off it's
own nose to spite it's face. We are in
favor of the coinage of all the gold that
tho minis can turn ont, and the maxi
mnm amount of silver allowed by law,
without regard to the political COM
plexiOn Of the administration under
which it is done, and if we had our way
ths coinage of silver would bs as unre-
Rtricted as ID the coinage of the yellow
metal.
There is not, perhaps, a Democrat in
the Stute who wonld not rejoice at the
resumption of coinage by the Carson
Mint under n Republican Administra-

have doubts that it will be done as
speedily nv is promised with such

ACCEPTING THE SITUATION.

The midnight closing law met With
1uuch opposition in the start, but the
agony over, liquor sellers appear to
realize that in the end the law may
prove beneficial to them. The system
obtains all through Europe, and in
80 ME large citios 9-o'clock gun fired
reminds saloon keepers that sales ut
wholesale or retail mus. cease for the
day. 1t does seem TINT midnight is a
reasonable hour for business closing,
and that family men who may follow
tie liquor selling business would be
PLEASED ut the enactment of law that
would compel general closing ut a
IorSon..ble hour.
All realize that tho closing law will
prove beneficial to the youth Of towns
and cities of tie State, aud that bur-
room loafers will become more scarce,
rs II general clearance Of back rooms
ri:l be necessity. OF course there
are some in the saloon business who
ply heavy gambling license, that
SnuSt suffer from the provisions of the
law, but doubtless such arrangements
will be made 80 that they will not be
losers in the end.
The main opposition I o the midnight
closiEg law is in Virg inia and Carson
cities, and it is not to be wondered at !;
for If any loss - are sustained surely
the saloon men of the two cities referred
to will be the main sufferers. There
will he just as much liquor sold and
rank, no that prohibitionists need not
crow over the midnight closing law,
but if one young man Gao be- saved
from the drunknrd's or gamblers lot
through the operations of the law, we
sly let its mandates be carried out to
the letter. Carson Tribune,

Aside from its being an exceedingly
filthy habit. the custom Of free and care
less cxpectoration involves dangers &c
health which are not generally under
stood. but which arc nevertheless in nc
sense fanciful.
1, iswcll established that the poison OF
certain diseases appears in the expecto-
ration. The germs of consumption are
known 70 be minute, rod like, vegetable
bodies. visible only by the aid Of the
most powerful microscope. In the mat
ter cxpect0ratcd by those afflicted with
this disease these germs are met with in
large numbers. BY experiment it has
been determined that they are very tena
cious of life. and can be destroyed only
by certain fluids or by exposure TO high
temperature for a considerable length OF
time
II is easy 10 see. therefore. that il the
axpect0ration from the lungs j. allowed
TO lie exposed till it becomes dry. the
germs will be taken up and scattered
abroad by the air currents. and in thi:
way a fruitful source of contagion will
be provided.
Fortunately most people in good health
remain unaffected by the germs which
have found entrance into the body II
is only when the powers Of resistance
are weakened by some defect Of the con.
stitutiOn, or when some unusually favor.
able opportunity for infection has been
given, that the poison gains a mastery
and produces disease.
When We consider that in a hall Of
moderate size, which has been occupied
by an audience for an hour or more,
there are millions OF germs OF various
kinds, some Of which, under favorable
conditions, are capable Of producing dis
ease, then the wisdom OF such provi-
sion of nature becomes apparent
No doubt every one has felt certain
disgust 1T the hawking and splitting
which is met with TO a greater or less
extent in all public places, and it is well
for every one 10 know that there are eI-
ccllent sanitary reasons for the obsery-
ance OF a rule which good breeding and
a care for the feelings OF others ought TO
be sufficient TO enforce.
1t is in the discovery of the real causes
of disease that we shall most surely find
the valuable ounce Of prevention. II
we must expectorate, let us at least re-
frain from doing 80 in public places. -

The secret of the longevity Of the posts
consists in the fact that the ends Of the
posts rested on flat stones with an iron
bin fastened in the stone with lead and
projecting up into a hole bored in the
foot Of the posts. These were further
steadied and supported by small iron
rod entering the side Of each post about
one foot above the stone and bent so that
the other end Of the rod was fastened
into the stone with lead as a brace and
support. Last year the same posts,
which still remained sound, were used
again as posts for new fence OF wire
