We are panied to be called upon To
chronicle the death on Wednesday
night last Of Johnny Horn, a we'll
known young man who bad grown
from boyhood to manhood in Eureka
and Lander counties. He was the
son Of Cyrus F. Horn, who has been
prominent in the affairs Of Eastern
Nevada for a quarter Of a century.
Johnny was Of genial disposition and
had a host OF friends all through this
section OF the State and wherever
known. He was fast approaching 33
years OF age, Just in the prime and
vigor Of young manhood, which makes
his taking off all the more untimely
and deplorable. He will be greatly
missed in this community because of
his general and intimate acquaint-
ance with the people Of the whole
neighborhood. Pneumonia was the
immediate cause Of death. 1t was a
violent attack from the start and stub
bornly refused to yield to medical
skill. His mother left with the re-
mains by yesterdays train for York.
Pennsylvania, where interment will
take place. Notwithstanding the early
hour at which the train leaves a mum
Der OF sorrowing friends accompanied
the remains to the depot. The par
ents and brother OF deceased have the
full sympathy of the entire commu-
in their sad affliction.

Improve the sidewalks.

Wrecked sidewalks are a dead give
away to a town. A stranger beholding
them usually takes the back track.
In this State the Commissioners have
power TO repair the sidewalks in nom
incorporated towns. We call on our
Board to give this matter attention at
once. Needed improvements a be
made a lien on the property improved.
The worst piece Of sidewalk on the
whole face OF the earth is to be found
in the north end OF the town OF Eu-
reka. 1t is a disgrace to any civilized
community. Besides it is dangerous
to life and limb. There is a cement
gravel back Of the Bureau hotel that
makes an excellent sidewalk, almost
equal to asphaltum. At small cost
our whole town can be put in passable
condition. Let it be done and with
out further growing from the local
paper.

An Indfan scare.

There was a rumor brought to town
during the week that several hundred
Indians had fortified themselves on
Pancake mountain between Eureka
and Hamilton. The story was the
talk of the town for two or thrAa deys.
Some timid men and ladies
were visibly agitated. Under Sheriff
Dale and Joe Brown promptly and
vigorously went TO the front to see
what allied the Red Brother. They
returned from the seat of war yester-
day and reported that there was not
even a ghost dance in sight. The al
lodged fertilization was a corral for
entrappingth the festive jackrabbit which
the Indians we're doing. All stories OF
trouble with the Nevada Indians
is simple nonsense. There is not
courage nor spirit enough among
them to assault anything above a
swill barrel or the offal from a slaugh-
ter-house. The cruel wal is over and
persons OF delicate sensibilities may
sleep in peace as usual.

The Twelve O'clock Lnw-

Among the bills which have been
introduced in the Senate is one for
repeating the law passed two years ago
known as the Twelve O'clock Law"
This bill should pass and the law clos

bride men and pass laws that say that
men shall not visit a saloon after mid

to say no, that the law will in any way

the State.

We are sorry TO learn that Captain
p. J. Dunno Of Virginia City is leaving
the State to take up his permanent
residence in San Francisco. 1t is a
business opportunity that impels the
change. He is TO join his brother
James Dunno in a most successful
liquor business at the corner Of Stock
ton and Market streets. Captain
Dunno has been a resident of Nevada
for nearly twenty years, filling various
positions Of publice trust. He has
been for years the Captain of the
Emmett Guards, the crack military
company of this State and one of the
very best in all the west. No man
ever took greater pride in his company
than Captain Dunno did in the EN-
NETS. We repeat that we are sorry to
lose him from the State, for he is one
of the very best and truest men in il.
He is at present Secretary of the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee. Good
luck to you, Captain, in all of your
undertakings. The boys from all
parts of Nevada when in the city will
be sure to drop in and see the Dunno
brothers-Pete and Jim.

Every lady should be interested in
The National Memorial Association, "
chartered February %, 1890, in the
District OF Columbia. The object OF the
Association is to pay a national tribute
to the memory of Mary, the mother Of
George Washington, by erecting anon
ument in her honor. The Trustees OF
the Association are: His Excellency,
| Benjamin Harrison, President Of the
United States; Hon. Melville w. Full
Ter, Chief Justice of the United States,
and Hon. Philip Mckinney, Governor
OF Virginia. Mrs. Amelia q. Waite is
the President; Mrs. Matilda w. EN-
DRY, First Vice President Mrs. Eliza
beth Blair Lee, Second Vice President;
Mrs. Margaret Hetzel and Miss Maud
Lee Davidge, Secretaries. Mrs. Sena-
tor Stewart, OF Nevada, is one Of the
Vice Presidents OF States, and Mrs.
Ex-Governor Adams has been depu-
tized to look after the affairs of the As
ISOLATION in Nevada.
Mrs. Adams has enlisted the entire
press OF the state, including the ladies
in each county, to aid in raising a
fund from Nevada. 1t is more prop
erly a work OF the patriotic ladies OF
the country, but donations from gen.
tlemen also will be accepted. Con-
tributions, from ten cents upwards,
will be received for the accomplish
ment OF the laudable object proposed.
A donation of one dollar will entitle
the giver to a handsome badge repre-
senting a life membership in the AS
ISOLATION at Washington. An earnest
appeal is made to the mothers and
daughters Of Eureka county to con-
tribute as literally as their means will
warrant. The following ladies have
been named as the committee to act
for Eureka county: Mrs. w. +.
Griffin, Mrs. ID. w. Levan, Mrs. f. j.
Schneider. These ladies are empow-
cred to solicit and receive subscIip-
tons which they will forward to Mrs.
Ex-Governor j. w. Adams at Carson
on or before Feby 10. The time is
short, but Eureka should do some
thing. Let our ladies not be behind
other sections OF the State.

The eagles Of oratory over at Carson
this Winter all seem to hail from White

Comins, nominating Jones for the Sem
ate, was better than the subject. Atthe
banquet which followed, Thribble Y.

THE Assembly, /" fairly divided honors
with "Cleve," whose pleasant duty it
was to %eloquently extol and boom the

part of the State was not Sin it" from
an oratorical stand point. The Great
East has always had the brains and
the assurance to exhibit them. This
is particularly true OF the Republican
party. Still, the west gets away with
both Senators, the Governor, the Con-
gresham and all other important POI
sitions. The west gets the places and
the east gets the soup.

The Deep Creek Railroad.

The visiting railroad officials Of the
Santa Fe system were in Salt Lake
City on Tuesday last, and the Tribune
says: President Marvel was especially
interested in the possibilities of rail-
road growth west Of Colorado. A
Union Pacific railroad folder was open
ed for him, when ~glancing down on
the dotted line indicating the Phoebe
extension, he remarked that the
Union Pacific people had been to him
to arrange for the use OF the Santa
Fe tracks from near Barstow into Los
Angeles. But Mr.. Marvel was es-
pecially interested in the chance for an
air line to San Francisco; though
after a careful survey OF the line of the
Central Pacific map, he failed to see
how a line south Of that would save
much. Mr.. Mccormick and MIR. Allen,
however, held that about $50 miles
could be saved by a line directly west
from this city through Eureka, New.
But getting across the Sierras was what
made Mr.. Marvel question the FEAST
bility OF the scheme. He asked
numerous questions as to the grades,
the lines OF the hills, the width OF the
valleys west Of this city, as well as the
general mining outlook south OF the
Central Pacific. The characteristics
of Great Salt Lake and its size, he
made particular inquiry about. In
fact, he paid SO much attention to the
topography of the country west of Salt
Lake that il seemed fair to infer that
the acute minded President of the
Santa Fe system had in view an ex-
tension via Salt Lake to San Francisco
at as early a day IS might be practi-
cable.

NugRasfIOn.

Several prominent eitisAns and fa~-
payers OF Washoe and other counties
suggest that the people, irrespective of
party, meet and adopt resolutions in
structing their representatives in the
Legislature to canvass the vote for a
Constitutional Convention, and comply
with the wishes OF the majority.
They are satisfied that a systematic
effort is being made by interested
persons to thwat the will OF the ma
jority, as expressed at the ballot box
and that the people should let their
representatives know that their
wishes deserve at least as much con
sidertion as those of the bosses. Meet
ings should be held at every county
seat, agricultural village and mining
camp and resolutions adopted, which
the members of the Legislature can
not misconstrue and darelnot ignore.
The people, in the name prescribed
by the Legislature voted for a Consti-
tutional Convention, and the members
who violate their oaths to please the
bosses should be branded as
perjurers, and traitors to the cause
OF their constituents.-Reno Journal.

Going Deeper Into the Bowels or
the COmsfOck for wealth.

After a lapse OF five years deep min
ing is to be resumed along the entire
Comstock lode. A virtual agreement
to that effect has been made by John
w. Mackay, James L. Flood, Alvinza
Hayward, w. S. Hobart, s. l.. Jones
and others who contol the middle and
north-end mines. Deep mining has
already been decided upon by John p.
and S. l.. Jones, the Sharon estate, r..
f. Morrow and others who control the
Gold Hill and south-end mines. for, as
is well known the drainage of the lower
levels OF those mines has been ucces
fully progressing through the Crown
Point incline for several months. The
decision of the magnates controlling
the middle and north-end mines
to resume work in their lower
levels now completes the general
plan, and in due course OF
time there will be deep mining in
the Comstock from one end to the
other.

A WhOpper.

Tom Fitch is reported to have struck
it rich in Mexico. A San Francisco
paper says he has a ledge rising from
the sea beach 1000 feet high, three to
ten miles in width, and twenty miles
in length. 1t assays from 500 to $50
per ton in gold. The story is hardly
complete. II should have related that
the twenty-dollar pieces were found al
ready coined. boxed and labeled for
San Francisco. If Tom has such a
rich mine as rumor gives him, it is
more valuable than our once famous

Tne surveyor Generals Report.

We acknowledge the receipt OF the
report OF Surveyor General John F..
Jones. The document contains some
valuable information and statistics.
The report would have been better as
a whole il it had not gone out OF its
way to drag in a portion OF the Repub-
lican State platform. 1t is in extreme
bad taste for any State officer to make
of his report a campaign document.
The money which pays for the print
ing OF these reports is gathered alike
from Democrats and Republicans. We
expected a higher sense of the proprie-
ties in General Jones. But the trail oil

Stewart said its passage would be more
disasterous to liberty than successful
rebellion and secession, for the latter
would not destroy local self govern

there be inside information they are

enormous selling OF silver, owing to the
prevailing belief that there will be no

Congress. These sales depressed the

early reaction, we think, may be ex-
