The question concerning the boundary
line between Eureka and Lander coun-
ties has been decided by Judge Rising in
favor Of Eureka county. During the
session of last Winter the Eureka dele
CATION made a great effort to induce
the Legislature to interfere, the
case being then before the courts. The
legislature refused to take action in the
matter, holding that, although the courts
certainly could not fix lin the sense OF
making) boundary lines. yet they could
and should decide where, as to partic'
ular piece Of property, the line had been
fixed. This would tend to show that
legislatures do not always do all the
foolish and unnecessary things that are
suggested to them.

SOME DON'TS WORTH RE-
MEMBERING.

DON'T be above honest toll, it is
far better to work for yourself than
to have others work for you.
DON'T hang around the Depart
ments on pay day for the purpose
of borrowing from your next best
friend money to pay your last
months board bill.
DON'T aim too high when you
want to strike the Bulls eye.
Don't waste your breath talking
about what might have been, do
something now-the best at least is
secure and beyond your reach.
DON'T, lose your head simply
because you have succeeded, official
life is mighty uncertain, honors go
around like a cartwheel.

Washington, on his recent return
to that city was worthy alike of
him and them. His loyalty to us
entities him to our profoundest
gratitude, and Editor Chase acted
wisely and well in initiating the
movement which resulted in Civ
ing the Senator such high and
deserved consideration. 1t shows
at least that the Negroes are not
ungrateful whatever else may be
said against US. Senator Chand-
ler sounded the key note when he
said that can honest black man
is superior to a dishonest white
man." which ..argues that many
black men are superior to many
white men.

NEW YORK NOTES.

r. F. Lee, democratic porter at
the New York Custom house, was
dismissed Wednesday the 18th of
June and on the 21St was appoint
ed to a more lucrative position in
the State house, at Trenton, n. j.,
from which state his original ap-
pointment came; his offence was
too much active partisanship.
When we look at the fact that a
white man was appointed porter in
Lees place the next day, though
there are fifty colored patriots
waiting for porterships; it is no
wonder that there are so many Ne.
gro Democrats and their number
is increasing fast, as the next elec-
ton in this state will show. The
n. Y. "Star' and the "Herald"
had full particulars of Lees case
in their Sundays issue, June 23rd.

DEAFNESS CAN'T BE CURED

by local application, as they cam
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con.
stitutlonal remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an infiamed condi-
ton of the mucas lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets infiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness
is the result, and unless the infla,
nation can be taken out, and this
tube restored TO its normal condi-
tion, hearing will b3 destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of
the mucuS surfaces,
We will give One Hundred Dol.
lars for any case of deafness, (caus-
ed by catarrh,) that we canno t
