The body of Had Raymond, an old
resident of Pizen Switch, was found
in Walker River last Thursday week
by some Piute children who were
swimming in The river. About thirty
pounds of iron was tied to the body
and wound in the head showed that
the man had been murdered. It Is
surmised that Raymond was killed
by certain Indians, whom he had
forbidden TO come around his prem
ises and who had threatened to kill
him. Parties are in pursuit of the
suspected Piutes.

FEARFUL RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
Two Trains ON the c P. Wrecked and
Five Mem Killed.

From the Reno Journal of last Sat
urday we take the following tele-
graphic report from Truckee of the
fearful railroad accident near the
Summit on the ed:
This morning friday at 1925 as
the east-bound freight train No. Is
reached Summit the engines were I'M
coupled and sent up the track to pick
up some cars. The rest Of the train
consisting of IL cars, was left on the
track with the air-brakes on, and 1t is
supposed that the air leaked out re-
leased the brakes, and the train
started down the track. The brakes
men were ahead with the engines.
Conductor Kingsley saw the cars
move and be ran aud climbed on the
now fast moving train and tried to
hold It with the hand brakes. Tn this
he was unsuccessful.
The grade was heavy, and the mo-
mentum increased until they were
moving at fearful rate.
At Cascade freight train No. % was
just pulling into the siding, when the
wild cars came tearing down the
track at the rate of 100 miles an hour.
The engines OF % had just passed
the switch, and the flying cars struck
the train near the center.
The wreck was terrible, the cars
being piled up as high as the tele-
graph poles.
The telegraph office alongside the
track was all knocked to pieces.
The operator was in bed. The bed
was broken to bits, and the operator
was knocked down hill, but escaped
with few scratches.
Conductor Kingsley heroically staid
with his train, and was killed-crush-
ed all out OF shape.
No. 10 piled on top of No. %, bury
ing Conductor Connolly and brake
men Bever and Veara in the wreck,
killing them.
The bodies have been removed, and
also the body of man IA strangely
who was riding on No. %.
The fact that the Atlantic Express
was behind time averted fearful
disaster, as % was running on her
time to the Summit.
Had the Atlantic been on time the
runaway woHld have struck that
train, and the loss OF life would have
been great.

WORSE THAN HEssrANs.

4 detective named Pinkerton hires
lot of irresponsible roughs to any
person or corporation who will pay
for their services to intimidate work
ingnlrn WHO have no other means oil
having their grievances rcdresscd than
by striking. These DULLES, or guards,
as they are termed, are from the slums
of large cities and are generally inn
ported from other States. Their
presence incites the strikers to rash
deeds as they are detested by all
people who earn q living honestly.
In Albany, New York, where the em-
ployes of the New York Central road
are on strike, a lot of these imported
desperadoes were placed on guard at
street crossings and their presence so
excited the throng that row ensued in
which clubs, stones and revolvers
were used and several of the Pinkerto0
guards as well as citizens were serious
ly injured. The guards were then
withdrawn and the police had no
difficulty in keeping the peace and
maintaining order.
As a general rule very little is gain
ed while frequently very much is lost
by strikes. A little consideration and
disposition ON the part of employed
and employers to meet each other
halfway would obviate the necessity
for striking but in any event, nothing
is gained by importing a lot of roughs
from other States to intimidate the
strikers. Generally the local author
tiles can protect property and keep the
peace without difficulty, and when
they fail to d. so, the militia can be
relied upon to keep order, which they
invariably do without bloodshed.
In many of the Western States
there are stringent laws against the
importation of mercenaries like Pink
erton guards, and in those States there
never is such serious trouble as in
Pennsylvania and New York, where
corporations are not prohibited from
employing such men.-Exchange.

THE RENO BOARD OF TRADE.
Irrigatio and Politics Economy and
Reservoirs.

Reservoirs.
The following letter, which We find
in the Silver State of the Goth, while
little bit sarcastic, is noue the less
a fair review of the subjects it treats
upon. The writer is Carsolite:
The correspondence between the
Board of Trade, OF Reno, and Francis
G.. Newlands, of Sharon's estate,
which appeared in the Reno Journal
of yesterday, ought to be dramatized
aud put on the stage with the "fac
smile Irish comedian" as the leading
character, aud 1.-THE several leading
citizens of Reno" as dramatis per-
sonae, with spades and shoyels Dig
ging bitches for imaginary irrigating
systems. Whether this show, if pro-
duced on the eastern stage, would at
tract peoples attention to the unde-
yeloped resources of Nevada or not, il
would certainly exhibit the unlimited
resources and check of the Reno
Board of Trade.
1t is pity that Mr.. Newlands could
not consent to become our Governor,
for when he shows so much skill in
governing the Reno Board of Trade,
by organizing it into a close irrigation
corporation and political correspond
ent, and at the same time, head and
tail to the Republican kite, as Gov
ernor he and the Board could dampen,
if nothing more. the whole State Pc
riodically, and thus 10 measure, solve
the irrigation problem.
But is is nevertheless very kind In
Mr.. Newlands to consent to go to
Congress and give the State the spare
hours he may have between the sales
of town lots in the Sharon addition
to Washington City-besides the
Board of Trade of Reno, could act as
the town lot agent for Nevada, and
thus Mr.. Newlands and the State, OF
the Board which is virtually the same
thing, would be mutually benefited
AS political convention are expen-
sive TO the members, and in these
hard times, but few can afford the ex'
pense, Mr.. Newlands would place the
people under renewed obligations il
he would again call the select COM
mittee of the Board of Trade of Rene
together, and name the whole State
ticket, and thus dispense with the
Republican and Democratic State
conventions called for on the 4th ano
18th of September, respectively. Tit
money that would be thus saved
would build good sized reservoir
and would materially aid the con
struction of the great system OF reser
voirs, projected by the Board, al
over the State, from the upper end o
Powning's Addition to the Lunati'
ASYLUM. The Democrats might OBJ
iect to this scheme, as they object L
every progressive idea, but they hav'
no more right TO run counter to th
Reno Board of Trade than the Re
publicans have. | am in favor of !
on the score of economy and irrigation
reservoirs, and politics and such like
as a modest member of the q. o. +.

10000 New Farms a Year.

The census of 1880 showed that in every
year since 1870 there had been opened in
the United States on an average upwards Of
10000 new farms per year. This fact ex-
planned the mystery, for even to some of the
manufacturers themselves it seemed mys-
terry as to where all the new self-binders and
mowers went to. William Deering & Co.,
of Chicago, alone manufacture between
twenty and thirty thousand complete self
binders and as many mowers every year, and
with reapers and various other implements
and attachments their product runs up to
many thousands. Of course as they stand
at the head the product of other works is
smaller, but in the aggregate it takes many
new farms to make places for all.
