County Official Paper
AN AGREEMENT REACHED

A dispatch dated Washington, July
z, says:
An agreement on the silver ques-
ton has been practically reached. 1t
will provide for the purchase Of A.
100000 ounces of silver a month. The
bullion redemption certificates will be
redeemable in coin and full legal
tender. A meeting of the full Con-
ference Committee to consider tho
agreement has been called, and no
doubt it will be ratified. The full
Conference Committee met and re-
port was drawn up by Senator Sher-
man and adopted. The report was
presented to the Senate Immediately.
Yesterdays Silver State comments on
the compromise measure as follows:
otis claimed by the milk -and-water
silver men that this bill will prove
fully as beneficial to the silver inter-
ests as free coinage, but this claim is
advanced merely for the purpose Of
quieting the advocates of free coinage.
This compromise measure, as we
understand it, makes silver COM
modify with no fixed value. Bullion
may be worth over q dollar an ounce
to-day and less than dollar to-mor-
row. 1t encourages speculation in IL
metal that is used for money trough
out the globe, and enables operators
to make "corn srs" to advance or de-
crease its price. 1t may increase the
coinage of silver at the mints or sus-
pend it altogether, at the option of
the Secretary of the Treasury, and by
placing it in the power of Wall street
operators to control the price Of bull
ion, makes silver mining as unstable
and precarious as it has been slice
silver was demonetized in 1873"

A Mothers Devotion,

Mrs Bates IS in from Cherry Creek
endeavorIng to secure the pardon of
her son, George Lewis, who was sent
to the State Prison for life for killing
IN Italian at Bullionville, White Pine
county. Being Lewis first otfense
and as he believed his own life in
danger whom he committed the deed,
the Tribune thinks the Board is JUST
fed in pardoning him. Another
thing, the boys health is rapidly fail
ing, being threatened with consump-
ton, and incarceration will hasten
the disease to fatal termination.
The Bolrl should comfort the good
old mothers heart by pardoDing the
boy. They'll never regret the act
carson Tribune.
The Tribune is mistaken rs t. the
location Of the homicide, as it was
committed Mt Highland, q mile or two
above Bullion, Elko county. While
we have tho highest regard for a
mothers devotion to her son, we can
not forget that the murdered man
also had n mother; moro than this,
tho evidence adducod at the trial
here showed that Lewis, after having
some difficulty with Piccoli, walked
down from Highland to Bullion where
he procured pistol. then walked
back up the steep grade to Highland
and shot Piccoli in his, (the Italian's)
own cabin.
AS we have heretofore stated we
are conscienciously opposed to capital
punishment, believing that life i'm
prlsonment is n proper punishment
for murder; but when man is proven
guilty OF n deliberate murder, even
though his victim DO an Italian, and
sentenced to life Imprisonment we
nre opposed to turning him loose on
tho public after few years imprison-
ment, unless it can DO clearly proven
that the condemned is innocent of the
crime with which he was charged.

Don't Judge a Man by His Coat.

This story comes from the "Peak Coun-
tree" The great cavern at Castleton,
England, attracts a large number of tour
lists every year, and now and then notables
visit the place. A visitor somewhat shah
billy dressed presented himself before the
guide, an official employed by the Duke of
Devonshire, and asked what it would cost
to see the sights.
Seven shillings," was the mans reply.
at seems lot of money" said the in
quirer.
But the guide, with glance at the
mans garments, deigned no answer. The
visitor, however, resolved to go in Emerg-
ing into the light of day again, he entered
his name in the visitors book, and said
"There's seven shillings for your master
and something for yourself"
The Something" was a sovereign. The
guide, staggered by the magnitude of the
gratuity, hastily scanned the visitors
book, and found the signature of a we'll
known millionaire Duke He looked the
surprise he felt
"You didn't expect that, did your"
drolly asked the Duke.
"No, your grace, did no" said the
guide, honestly.
"And you thought, now, / was scarcely
good for the seven shillings ?p persisted
the Duke.
The thought, from the guides frank ad-
mission, certainly had crossed his mind.
"Well," said his grace smilingly, "neyer

wears"

STORYTELLING MINERS.
One of them Declared that n. eO-Pou
Stone Was Hurled Eight Miles.


Stone Was Hurled Eight Miles,
A group of old mining men who have
been doing some hard swearing in the
United States Court for the past week were
camped in the reading-room of the Mark
ham trying to shock one another, with
yarns about their special line of business,
says the Denver Neus. Some of the tales
were woefully moss-covered, but the old
fellows didn't enjoy them any the less be-
cause they had heard the same things at
intervals for the last quarter of century.
Finally they branched off from mining
proper into quarrying. None of them
ever did any quarrying, and it was perhaps
for that reason that the romances were
saturated with a lurid iridescent colorinc.
First of all, it was agreed that getting
out big blocks of stone wasn't much of
job anyway, and required no such intellect
as burrowing into the depths of mountain
with real mine. Then it was agreed
that it was wonder that any quarryman
lived more than week.
"Up there by my place." said a red
faced, hearty-looking man from the Gun
nison country, ''they don't seem to think
anything of putting in blast with more
power than couple of locomotives, and
then standing around to sort of encourage
it to go off and kill half dozen of them.
IT 1t doesn't seem to be good, healthy
blast, they go over and grin down the hole
at it and poke it up famiiarly. Evry
now and then couple of them are hoisted
IN several directions over the hills. The
survivors have a satisfied air for week
after, and sit around the saloons telling
how things are beginning TO pick up again
like old times. Theu again, they dont.
think they are doing their duty unless
they shower rocks over township. Nv
house is quarter of mile from the near
est quarry, and the outside of it is covered
with dents made by flying rocks"
His auditors looked at one another
doubtfully, but he kept right along with
perfect evenness.
People don't know what those heavy
blasts are. Cannons are nothing to them.
l saw case myself where stone that
weighed, l should say, twenty pounds was
thrown eight miles. MAJ you don't be-
lieve that, but it is true. | tell YOU those
quarrymen are the most reckless lot of
fellows on earth. They got so use to tear
ing things up by the acre that believe
they are making their charges bigger and
bigger every day. Do YOU know why
game leaves the neighborhood of the quar-
ries?"
"Quarrymen eat them, may be-" ven
tured little man.
Eat them, nothing! So many are
killed by the shower of stones that the re-
mainder leave"
The party broke up in thoughtful and
distracted way.
