A LITTLE FIGURING.

The New York Suns report Of
the visit of delegation from the
Peoples party to Senator Carlisle
of Kentucky, is interesting read
ing. They wanted his views on
government ownership of railroad,
telegraph lines etc. Senator Car
Isle asked: "Do you purpose to
get possession of these properties
by confiscation?" They answered.:
emo that wouldn't be fair The
Senator remarked: "Then YOU
must buy them, and to buy them
you must pay for them, and to
pay for them you must tax your
selves" and then he presented to
them the situation in this form
EtHave you any idea how much it
would cost? Our government
debt at the close of the war, was
more than $4,000. 900 900, and we
nave been almost thirty years in
paying half of it. The railroads,
telegraph, and telephone lines, and
steamboats, in the country, repre-
sent about 81 ,0oO,OO0,OOO invested
capital; $4,0oO,0O0,OOO is bonded
Indebtedness, which must be
paid. Are you ready to tax your
selves to raise this money? Then
after you have got the property,
are you ready to tax yourselves to
operate it, for the government
never succeeded in doing business
a profit? Consider another eff
feet such a plan would add, per-
laps, 200, 900 men and women
to the roll of government en-
ployees. How would you ever
succeed in turning out Of power
an administration with such 1e-
sources at it's command? The more
corrupt it was, the more difficult
it would be to displace it.

The people Of this State are
more prosperous than those of
almost ANY other section of the
country and that fact is coming
to be known now. Even now in
the much doomed section of south
ern California people are dissatis-
fed and looking this way. A letter
was received by the Board of
Trade few days ago from gen.
tleman now living in Los Angeles
who is DESTROYS of coming to
Nevada with a colony of dissa-
pointed Fasteners who have not
found what they were looking for
in southern California. This
mornings train brought to Reno
two or three gentlemen from Mo-
desto, Cal, who are seeking a new
field and came to Reno to see
what we have here. Mr. Fulton's
letters in the New York Tribune
are attracting much attention and
the Board of Trade are receiving
letters of inquiry daily. Hardly a
day passes that the Gazette does
not receive from one to three let
tiers from people who are dissatis-
fed with their lot in ether places
and are anxious to know the
truth about Nevada. Gazette.

The Tuscarora correspondent of
the Elko Independent says: Our
fellow townsend, r. NJ. Catlin, has
invented, perfected and patented
one Of the most complete. simple,
compact and rapid firing rifles on
earth. BY simple devise the
magazine, consisting Of twelve to
sixteen shots, can be discharged
more rapidly than any man can
count, or the shots can be regu-
lated 50 as to be fired one by one,
slow or fast as may be required.
The gun is simple and accurate,
at long or short range, and has
been tested over three thousand
times in the last few days without
a failure in any particular. The
penetration Of the projectile is
equal, il not superior, to any fire
arm yet brought out, and the
range so far tested is from five
hundred to one thousand yards.
If there is any gun on earth that
can beat this I should like to hear
of it.

DAMA'S TESTAMENT.

Attorney LIoyd's Reasons Cor Consider
ing 1t Genuine.
Reuben II. Lloyd, attorney for Sarah
Barker Smith, the sole legatee of Luigi
Dana under the document filed for probate
in the Superior Court, commenced his argu-
ment. He maintained that tile case is i'm
poTtant on ac cunt of the large amount of
money involved, and because the reputation
of many persons that have stood high in
this community have been assaled. He
contended that the long memorandum"
introduced in evidence and pronounced a
genuine specimen of Dama'S writing proved
that the will presented in court is not Il
forgery.
As to the mention of bonds in the win
and the number and amount upon which
counsel for contestants laid so much stress
Mr. Lloyd thought that the deposition Of
Benz min Randall threw considerable light
on that subject 1t had been shown by
Randall testimony that Dana owned nine
Government bonds and two railroad bonds
in 1855. On May Is. 1885, five Of the bonds
were sold TO the Maverick Baak
1t was c0ntended by the contestants that
a man 81 careful in business matters would
not be liable to make a will in which he
bequeathed bonds which he had previously
sold, and the contestants had made the
reference in the will to the bonds a strong
point in support Of the allegation that the
will was a forgery.
Attorney Lloyd admitted that the busi-
ness was badly jumbled up, but maintained
that il was not tor Mrs. Smith to account
for the peculiar conduct of Dana in making
his will, as the attorneys for the contestants
had admitted that Professor Dana was
most peculiar and eccentric man.
