resident Of Reno, had his mechan-
ical brain at work on a continuance

Dark Continent.
He STYLES it the land-ship and

No Post at Hawthorne.

The last Legislature passed a
resolution recommending the es-
tablishment of a military post at
Hawthorne, Esmeralda county.
The Secretary of War has now
written to the Governor that the
matter was referred to the Com
manding General of the Division
of the Pacific, who reported that
whatever may have been the need
of the post at the time the resolu-
ton was passed, the Walker Lake
Indians are at present peaceable
and he does not think the estab-
lishment of a military post adj
visable.-SilUer State.

eral services. If I had all these
in my head / could just about re-
member the combination of my

adequate to anything further than

me by the hand and lead me in.

At the weekly meeting of the State Board
of HarbOr Commissioners Yesterday after
noon, Engineer Manson submitted drawings
and plans for a shed over the bridge and
hoistlng-gear at Lombard slip. The esti-

be offered for bids.
A bid Of Henly & Tibbits TO repair the
wharf at the foot of Brannan street for $3.50
was accepted, and the work was ordered

brick-makefs at Vallejo.
A bill Of Raisch " Co. for 1914 for brick
furnished the department was approved and
ordered paid.
Attorney Stratton came before the board
to explain his SUIT against Captain Roberts
for tolls due and delinquent The original
bill only amounted TO Sl2, but with the
penalties added now foOts up S97 90. Mr..
StTattUn said that some verOal arrangement
was entered into between the captain and
the late attorney OF the board, under which
the delinquent wanted TO pay the above sum
into the treasury, to be held In escrow until
the Supreme Court should decide his case.
He had paid the same TO Mr.. StrattOn, and
now proposed to pay all charges regularly.
After hearing their attorney, the board
declined TO treat with Captain Roberts until
the back dues are paid into the treasury and
his daily payments should be met as
promptly as every other shipper.
After approving bond OF a. c. Brown, a
new collector. and bills aggregating
S12TS 20, the board adjourned.

NEWS FROM ABROAD.

The Rev Edward Everett Hale has given
his second 4" talk " about California in a
Boston church. A large audience was re-
ported present, which received considerable
miainformatlon. Mr.. Hale said, among
other things, that Californians worked too
hard-much harder than the New England
ers. This is contrary to general obSerya-
ton; also to natural law. The average
man, either in California or New England,
will not do anything that nature volunteers
to do for him. In New England the farmer
has to work the year round As soon as his
crops are secured he begins to feed his cat
tie. For six months he is tied to his barn.
He feeds his cattle about six times day.
Between feelings he chops and hauls wood
for the family use. His work in the winter
Is not quite so wearing as during seed time
and harvest, but it is equally as combining.
The average farmer, with from 100 to 200
acres, cannot afford help in the winter IN
less he has an income from other source
than the farm. A New England farmer
coming to California begins in the old New
England style Of farming, but soon learns to
take life easier. He does so simply because
he finds that he can and still live.

SHOULD READ CENSUS REPORTS.

a Georgia paper, which probably does not
mean to misrepresent, says that California
is distinctvely an agricultural State with
some little mining on its western border.
The same authority says that our State is
absolutely without manufactures. Every
product Of the mill or factory used in the
entire State is transported from the East"
If the Georgia editor had to rely upon the
reports of tourists, who often see only the
surface Of things, there would be some eX-
cuse for such msstatements. But at the
Georgia editors elbow was a census report
for 1880, which gives California much
higher rank as a manufacturing State than
it gives Georgia. The products of our mills
and factories, which our Georgia contem-
pGrary says are entirely brought from the
East, amounted in 1880 t. upward of
Sis, 00o, 900, while Georgia could show less
lhan S57, 100000 in value. The trouble
probably is that our natural products are so
exec ptional that people in the East think
we devote our entire time to the cultivation
