Times Review: The SENTINEL says that
the Dsmphool Innrmary has lsnguishsd at
Eureka since the departure OF its Presi-
dent for the bucolic districts. II should
be removed 10 Reno, II for no other rea-
son than to furnish q refuge for the editor
OF the Gazette.
The Virginia Chronicle gives credit 70
the Times Review for what II styles 9
g terse silver comment" which originally
appeared In the SESTIEL. The Times
Review simply "nipped II. But we
shall try and get even.
The wild scenes in the Senate over
Jones and his silver speech, a. reported
on this Coast, failed to attract the stten-
ton OF the Eastern press. A literary
bureau seems 10 be Q very necessary
adjunct Of 9 millionaire Senator waking up
for 9 dash At . fourth term.
The Mail and Express, Of New York, says
all Of the Republican Senators save q
half dozen, are opposed 10 Q free coinage
bill. OF course they are. The same
Journal abuses the Democratic Senators
for being In favor Of silver.
Stewart and Jones and the rest are con-
stantly saying that there are enough votes
to pass 9 free coinage bill. Well, why
don't they do II. Simply because there
are but few Republicans who will vote for
IL. They don't want to make the record.
Western Republicans are b~etrsying silver

who VIII Get the Placer

Says the Silver State: The funeral
Of Judge Sabin took place yesterday at
Carson, under the auspices Of Custer
Post G. A. R., OF that city, and now the
contest for his shoes or rather his
official seat, has begun. There are, of
course, a large number of patriots,
some OF whom are wholly unqualified
for the position, who consider them
selves entitled to it, and one who
deserves it-Hon. Thomas Wren, Of
Eureka-and it Is not probable that he
would accept it if he could get it. 1t
is possible that Congressman Bartine,
who has to be provided for because OF
his avowed determination to abide by
the decision Of the caucus regardless
OF the consequences to the State, may
be given the position. He stands well
with the President, because Of his
course in Congress, but what endears
him to Harrison the Little, kills him
politically in Nevada, and he cannot
be reelected.

A BIG PAYING BUSINESS.
The sheep to the Right and the
Goats 10 the Left.

]. G. Ford and partner have the
best paying business in Nevada.
They have 10000 sheep, more or less,
in the hills hereabouts. They have
just shipped this years clip of so tons
OF wool, estimated to bring in the
market 20 cents a pound. II was sent
to Hartford, Conn. Besides this s40,-
900 worth of wool, they have sold this
season $4,000 worth Of mutton.
Most Of the mutton went to Chicago
buyers, coming to the range for it.
There is practically no limit to the
demand for either wool or mutton.
Nevada is said TO be the best sheep
country in the world it is as good
as Australia or New leland. 1t is
claimed by those who assume to
Know that sheep husbandry will be
come our chief industry in time. 1t liz
certainly the best paying business in
the State. The raising OF mules comes
next. Both sheep and mules get
through the severest Winters if prop
ly located. There is less risk in
these animals than in any other
stock. Besides the sale Of mutton and
wool noted above, which is a reliable
income yearly, Mr.. Ford can also
double his flocks as often as he likes
by the natural increase. Mules 90
well with sheep, and Mr.. Ford raises
about 100 a year without the slightest
inconvenience. His range is likewise
a marvel in extent. II runs from
Elko 800 or 400 miles south towards
the Colorado river. He can camp
every night for the whole distance on
his own land, and by his own spring
or water right. He does not own all
OF the land, Of course, but he has
picked up enough in the right spots to
control the water, which also controls
the surrounding grass. He Winters
in the extreme south, but by slow
drives he reaches the railroad by
shearing time. Then later in the sea-
son he takes the back track. His
LOSSES the past Winter were merely
normal and nominal. His sheep
yielded this sason nearly eight pounds
TO the fleece. The lambing season is
now on, and ten or twelve thousand
lambs will be added to the herds in
the next two weeks. The great sheep
business OF Messrs. Ford & Co., yields
from Is to Is per cent per annum on
the money invested in it. 1t is a re-
markably well equipped and an
admirably s~ystematized business
venture. 1t pays big at present prices
and duties and tariffs. The Republi-
cans in Congress, with Mckinley at
their head, say the sheep should be
given still greater consideration and
respect. As between a sheep and a
man we are for the man. The Re-
publicans ought to be too shamed-
faced to look even a sheep in the eye.
But that is between them and their
God, il the latter shall allow them to
come close enough to be noted at all
in the final day. All the same We
congratulate Ford & Co. On the biggest
and surest good thing in Nevada.

Drops fn ON Us.

A. NJ. Ellsworth came in by private
conveyance from Cherry Creek on
Tuesday. Mr.. Ellsworth was Superin-
tendent of the Eureka Consolidated in
1912. He has not been in Eureka
for IL years, still he found many old
friends to extend him a hearty greet
ing. Since he left US he has spent two
years in China, erecting a quartz mill
and other mining appliances for the
Chinese Government. He erected
the first American quartz mill in
China, and it is still the only one
there. He says there is some excel
lent mineral bearing territory in that
country. The lodges and formations
are practically the same as our own.
MIR. Ellsworth, accompanied by q
military escort, went 400 miles into
the interior. He is full Of information
about the Flowery Kingdom and the
habits of its people. Speaking Of peo-
pie he says there is no estimating the
population. The people swarm like
flies all i've both land and water. He
doubts IL it be possible to obtain q cor
rect census of them. OF their civiliza-
ton, he thinks it not behind ours in
many respects. The Chinese who
we're associated with him in his
operations owe there were honorable
in a high degree. The Japs are not
half SO reliable. Mr.. Ellsworth has
mining business at Cherry Greek
which is engaging his attention for the
present. He travels with a two
wheel cart and a span Of the best four
year-old mules we have seen in these
parts for some time. Mr.. Ellsworth
greatly enjoyed his visit among old
Base Range acquaintance, and he
was equally entertaining to them. He
left Thursday for Cherry Creek.

the Political STRIKERS.
G. p. Huntington seems to be il
earnest about reforming some Of thu
methods Of the Southern Pacific
railroad. Before starting to New
York the other day he is re
ported to have scratched from the
pay-rolls the names of about sixty
lawyers and political strikers, thus re
ducing the expense account about
100000 annually. The Examiner
has the following:
Huntington had his curiosity ex.
cited by seeing the name Of a gentle.
man on the payroll for $1,000, who is
described by the dubious name Of Mr..
Jones.
"Who's Jones2" asked the new
President Of Colonel Croker. "Have
We got an Office for him in the build
ing?"
He lives at Los Angeles" replied
Colonel Croker.
Has he got an office down there
on behalf of the company ?" the mag
nate further inquired.
Not that | know Of" replied the
Colonel.
What does he do?"
To this question Colonel Croker is
said to have replied that as far as he
knew he was doing general outside
work for the company.
Well, l have no use for him.
Huntington is represented as saying,
at the same time making a big ink
scratch across the name Of Mr.. Jones.
In the same way a number Of gen.
tlemen living yer in Nevada were
served. One of these individuals re-
sides at Virginia City, and another at
Reno.
Huntington demanded to know from
one Of the officials of the road what
these two men did for the company.
"Well," replied the official, al
don't know what they are doing. They
WERE hired by Gage a number of years
ago and have been drawing salaries
ever SINCE"
"That's enough" said the magnate.
"They are not doing any railroad
work, and the Southern Pacific Com
pany is not rich enough to take are of
Mr.. Cages political friends any
longer" and off went their names.
