THE RENO BOARD OF TRADE

CARSON CRY, New, Aug. 10, 1880.
EDrroR SILVER STATE: The corre-
spondence between the Board OF Trade
OF Reno and Francis G.. Newlsnds, Of
Sharon's estate, which appeared in the
Reno Journal OF yesterday, ought to be
dramatized and put on the stage with
the "fac smile Irish comedian as the
leading character, and the several lead
ing citizens Of Reno as dramatis per-
sonae, with spades and shovels digging
bitches for imaginary irrigating systems.
Whether this show, il produced on the
Eastern stage, would attract peoples at
%tention TO the und~eveloped resources OF
Nevada or not, il would certainly ex-
hibit the unlimited and cheek
Of the Reno Board Of Trade.
1t is a pity that Mr.. Newlands could
not consent TO be our Governor, for
when he shows 80 much skill in govern
ing the Reno Board Of Trade, by organ.
izing il into q close irrigation corpora
ton and political correspondent, and at
the same time head and tail to the Re-
publican kite, as Governor he and the
Board could dampen, if nothing more,
the whole State periodically. and thus
in q measure solve the irrigation prob
lem.
But il is nevertheless very kind IN
Mr.. Newlands to consent to go to Con-
sress and give the State the few spare
hours he may have between the sale 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.. New.
lands and the State or the Board. which
is virtually the same thing, would be
mutually benefited.
As political conventions are expensive
to the members. and in these hard times
but few can afford the expense, MIR.
Newlands would place the people under
renewed obligations il he would again
call the select committee OF the Board OF
Trade Of Reno together and name the
whole State ticket, and thus dispense
with the Republican and Democratic
State Conventions called for on the 4th
aud llth Of September respectively.
The money that would be thus saved
would build a good sized reservoir, and
would materially aid the construction OF
the great system Of reservoirs, projected
IVY the Board, oil over the State, from
the upper end Of Powning's Addition to
the Lunatic Asylum. The Democrats
might object to this scheme. as they OBJ
| iect to every progressive idea, but they
| have no more right to run counter to the
| Reno Board Of Trade than the Republi.
csns have. l am in favor Of il on the
score of economy and irrigation and res.

Virginia Chronicle: Visitors from
abroad express surprise at the unusual
number Of tall young men on the Com.
stock. a majority Of those born here
measuring above five feet nine inches in
stature before they attain q legal voting
age, while many are above six feet in
stature. and it is very rarely that any OF
them do not grow taller than what is
termed medium hight five feet
seven inches. Their lower limbs also
show a higher development than is no
ticeable in youths bred at a less eleva.

sEw DEVELOPMENT PARTY.

The Winnemucca Silver State says:
The Board Of Trade, or perhaps more
accurately, speaking. eighteen or twenty
members Of it, seems to have organized
. party which they style the New De-
velopment " and asked +. G.. Newlsnds'
ESQ.,, il he would be its candidate Tor
Governor or Member Of Congress. The
correspondence on the subject appears in
another column. Mr.. Newlands de.
olipes 10 enter the field for Governor,
but as he has private business which re-
auires his presence at Washington a part
Of the time be might accept the nomina-
tion for Congress.
As will be observed, Mr.. Newlands
hesitates because OF the claims OF the
present incumbent. his own limited resi-
dence in the State and his short afilia.
tion with the Republican party. Why the
fact that he was recently a dyed.in.the.
wool Democrat and is not yet. as he adj
mits, in perfect accord with the Republi.
cans, should deter him from becoming
the standard bearer Of the new party
seems inexplicable. Surely If men have
been so strongly Republican as Bragg, so
strongly Democratic as Baker and so
fercely independent as Linn, sink past
differences in storage reservoirs and
transform the bloody chasm into an irri-
eating canal. Mr.. Newlands should
take courage and the nomination aud
proclaim New Development principles,
which we hope includes the free coinage
of silver, from every stump in Nevada.
But what effect will the New Develop.
ment organization have on the old par
tiesi The Democrats have become par.
TALLY reconciled to the loss Of G. w.
Baker. Esq, but the Republicans have
cause to weep and also wall over the de-
lection in their ranks.

Rough ON he Old cal.

A good old lady, the even tenor oil
whose ways had been kept undisturbed
in a secluded hamlet in Vermont
spent the Winter with relatives in a

The first lecture was by Colonel In

burned the skull and a portion OF the

enough to render the man senseless al
the first blow, just as they would have
done if they had struck him on the head

RAILROAD in the Holy Land has
rather a iarring sound. Give minutes
for refreshments at the Brook of Ked-
ron, "Dinner in the Valley Of Jehosh-

Tickets good for either Mount Zion OF
Mount Moriah." We presume these
will soon be added to the cries now ia
miliar to pilgrims over the sea. How.
ever. we shall in time be accustomed to

from the feeling Of reverence with which
we surround the Holy Land than from

Hon. Thomas Fitch, who, with ex-
Congressman Warner Of Ohio, Travelled
through the Atlantic States last Winter
and Spring and enlightened the people
on the silver question, has been q
candidate for Congress from Nevada
since early Summer. He was led
to believe that the Republican party
would give him the nomination by accla.
nation. but now he begins to discover
what many of his friends suspected
some time ago, that he is not on the
slate and will not be the choice Of the
convention. though he may be the choice
of the people.
1t is possible for Mr.. Fitch to be elect.
ed from Nevada. or make the individual
who defeats him pay dearly for the
Office. Let the Executive Committee of
the Silver Convention nominate him and
the Democrats indorse him, and if he is
defeated he can res. assured that every
vote of the majority against him will
cost the man who receives il at least a
twenty-dollar piece.
II eighteen citizens of Reno select a
lifelong Democrat for candidate for Con-
Rress, and the Republican State Conven-
tion approves their choice, the Execu-
tive Committee Of the Silver Convention
can nominate Fitch for Congress. and no
doubt the Democratic Convention will
indorse the choice. Then we will have
the anomaly of q lifelong Democrat for
Congress on the Republican ticket and
a lifelong Republican for the same posi-.
tion on the Democratic ticket. Fire is
sometimes fought with fre.-Silyer State.
