BASE BALL.

Two great games are scheduled for the
Drifton Park on Memorial Day. The
Jeanesvile Club will endeavor to defeat
the home team at 1870 A. NJ, and at
$50 p NJ. it will make another attempt
to accomplish the same purpose. Both
clubs will be strengthened considerably
and the two games will be great scene
for the struggle of supremacy. Each
of the managers are confident of winning
and the battles will be most exciting.
Don't miss them.

Drifton opened their park with Maha-
noy City on Saturday afternoon, and a
few innings demonstrated the home
clubs superiority over the visitors. The
game was not any too well played by
either team, but Drifton had the best
hitters and found no trouble in piling up
the runs. The infield work was some
what ragged all-around and was RESPONSE
BILE for the large score. Mahanoy could
not do any effective batting against
O'Hara's delivery and did not earn any
of their seven runs. The game was
very well attended.

After several challenges had been sent
to the Tigers the Locals of Honeybrook
were permitted to come over ON Sunday
afternoon. The club is about as good as
the average and expected to have some
chance of defeating the Tigers, but they
returned home firmly convinced that
they can't play ball with the Freeland
boys. In six innings the Tigers knocked
out four pitchers and scored eighteen
times, then the people from the South
Side requested the umpires to call the
game. They failed to steal base on
Gatfney, and made but two hits off
Brislin. The score by innings

WHAT NEVADA WANTS.

The two important questions that
interest Nevada are those OF irriga.
ton and free coinage Of silver. The
tariff question, immigration and other
questions are nothing to us compared
to water and silver. With a system
OF irrigation in this State that would
furnish water for arid lands not under
cultivation, Nevada would soon be.
come n OF the first States in the
Union in the way OF productions. People
would invest in lands here and the
whole country would begin on a
healthy growth.
Free coinage Of silver would be the
means Of opening up hundreds Of
small silver mines and putting them
on a paying basis besides making il
possible for many large mines to be
operated which are now at q stand
still.
Our representatives in Congress have
always stood in with the Eastern PEG
pie on any measure they wanted, but
have been sat upon when il came
time for the Fasteners to reciprocate.
Nevada should make it a special point
hereafter, irrespective Of politics, to
send nobody to Washington who Is
not sound on the two important
qustions spoken OF and her represen-
tatives should be instructed to stand
against any measure they are asked
by Fasteners TO help until they were
willing to help us get what we SO
much need.-Lyon County Times.

PIrIABLE ~JOURNAIIsM.

The boodlers and bosses who have
looted the State Of California for sev-
eral years past are now fleeing the
country by the Canadian route, leav-
ing their hired organs, the Chronicle
and Post, to shrek against the legality
Of the Grand Jury. The newspapers
which defend crime, present to the
public eye a spectacle more pitiablethan
the fleeing rascals whose tracks they
are trying to cover. These papers are
wealthy enough TO afford to be honest.
They were never seer objecting to any
of the Grand Juries who were the
creatures of Buckley's juggleries. The
instant a jury is drawn that really be-
gins to investigate crime these organs
howl so Justify that it looks as if they
themselves expected TO get narrowed
by the teeth OF the fine tooth comb now
being drawn over political ~rascality in
California. How cheap those Cali
fornia Judges must feel who had to
crawl on all tours up Buckeyes back
steps before they could get their nomi-
nations or elections.-Carson Appeal.

A Rad ECO.

Judge Murphy, the man in San
Francisco who is standing like q wall
between the boodlers OF California and
the penitentiary, will go down to
posterity as one Of the most famous
rascals that ever sat on the bench.
His act will, however, not help the
case OF his masters, as it has reused
the people to a state of fury that will
in the end sweep aside the rogues and
give the city OF San Francisco a better
government.
Murphy is one Of those plant fell
lows who are elevated to the bench to
serve certain people. No State in the
Union has been cursed with such q
rotten judiciary as California.
Look at Judge Sawyer, who on a
meager salary left 100000. Levy,
who is building a palatial residence,
and Field, who is reported worth
nearly a million.
Such a state OF affairs must topple
in a grand crash some day, and the
people will demand a clean, unbiased
judiciary.-Carson Appeal.

Announcements of the Nevada Agrf.
cultural Experiment Station.
The Chemical Department OF the
Nevada State Agricultural Experiment
Station is now fully equipped and pre-.
pared to analyze fertilizers, manures,
foods, soils, water, milk, butter,
cheese, sugar, beets and all other agri-
cultural materials and products. All
chemical analyses proper to an expert
ment station that can be used for the
benefit of the people will be made
without charge. All results must be
at the disposal Of the station to use or
publish if deemed advisable for the
public good. 1t is hoped that those
interested will take advantage Of this
opportunity and send in samples for
analysis. The results OF each analysis
will be promptly communicated to the
party sending the sample. Those that
are of general interest will be published
in bulletins, copies of which will be
sent gratis upon application to any
resident of Nevada desiring them.
II is the wish of the authorities in
charge TO make the station as widely
useful as its u will permit.
Every citizen of Nevada who Is inter-
ested in agriculture, whether farmer,
manufacturer or dealer, has the right
to apply to the station for any assist
ance that comes within its province.
All such applications will receive
prompt attention. Per orders of

% IT

The raise OF the valuation OF the rail-
road in this county by the State
Board when closely examined does
not justify our people in throwing up
their hats and going into fits over
their action. While it is true that
they raised the valuation to 81 900
per mile, an increase Of $4,000 over
last year, they generously knocked the
assessment Of the rolling stock clear of
the assessment roll and reduced the
valuation OF the side tracks. The re-
auctions on the side track and rolling
stock stand as follows:
Rolling stock included in as
sessment OF main track. $240, 900
Reduction on side track -. $4,000
Total reduction ........$ 1874, 900
BY the assessment of the railroads
as fixed by the State Board the South
ern Pacific Company will pay 1913 OF
less into the treasury Of Elko county
this year than they paid last year I'M
der the old system Of assessing.
Where, then, are the people benefited
by this so-called raise? AS there must
be more State revenue raised this year
than was raised last year and the rail-
road company pays less than'they did
then it is not a difficult matter to see
who will be compelled to make up the
deficiency. This is the way the 80
called equalization and assessment OF
railroads by the State Board will af-
feet this county. Other counties such
as Washoe for instance will fare worse
as the Board made a clear reduction
there of sos, 1896 from the assessment
of last year.

pure. "-Elko Independent.

The states Needs.

That which Nevada needs most is a
few able and honest men who will put
their shoulders to the wheel, and then
all else will follow in the course Of
time. The most prominent of those
who have had 10 do with the
irrigation problems thus far, are selfish
politicians who do not care one parti-
Gle beyond their own political advance
ment. Nevada is cursed with such
people and until it is rid of them and
new blood is injected into her veins
she will not be as other States, which
are far behind her in capabilities.
The newspaper organs have already
sounded the slogan OF irrigation in
order to advance the interests Of a few
would be statesmen.
Irrigation will be the cry now until
after the next election, after which
event the State will hear no more Of
the intention to regenerate Nevada.
All this ownership OF the State OF Ne
vada by a few political cormorants is
wrong, and the Chronicle does not see
its way to right it.-Virginia Chronicle.

The Trustees Of the Austin public

Board by making a sweeping order
that none but Normal School gradu-
ates be employed to teach after Jan.

ship OF the school. The policy of en-
ploying Normal School graduates will

a 70 Of Gold.

On Wednesday of last week. says
the Downieville Messenger, a piece of
gold weighing II pounds was found in
the Ruby Drift mine. The piece was
found by Thomas Morris while breast
ing. His attention was attracted by
his shovel, as he thought, getting
caught in the bedrock. Upon investi-
CATION he discovered the nugget. The
chunk was living near the bedrock,
as is the case with most Of the gold in
the primary pliocene channels. The
finder was naturally somewhat excited
at the discovery OF the largest piece of
gold ever found in that section. The
value OF the piece is a little over 49,
700. Several large pieces have been
found in this mine before, but none as
large as this.

producers and purchasers are already
beginning to make their calculations
regarding the output OF the Deep

when shipments can begin. This
road will surely be a great thing for
Salt Lake, and will not only open up
the Deep Greek country in Utah, but
also provide transportation facilities
for the great mineral deposits OF east
ern Nevada. The road cannot be
built any too soon to suit the people at
both ends of the proposed line.

THE PEN ROSE MURDER CASE.


A Butte, Montana, dispatch says:
After forty-one days of preliminary
hearing in the case of w. f. Deeney,
E. E. Kelley and Phil Hickey, the
three men charged with the assassin
alton OF Hon. w. J. Penrose in this
| city on the night of June 8, was brought
TO a close. The Judges, however, Of
whom there are two, reserved their de-
cision until they can look over the tes-
timony, which fills 3,100 pages of legal
cap. The testimony from beginning
to end is a bundle of contradiction,
but many points were brought out that
would seem TO indicate the right men
have been apprehended. All are prom
inent workers in the labor organiza-
tons, and the general belief is that
they are three of a larger body who de-
termined to kill Penrose because he
opposed in the State Legislature last
Winter the bill making eight hours a
days work for a miner. Penrose was
a member Of the Legislature and edi-
tor and proprietor of the Mining Jour-
nal OF this city. He was also a men,
Der of the State Board Of Arbitration,
and vas prominent in politics. After
his return from the Legislature the
Miners Union had his name with three
others who voted against the bill placed
IN a blackboard and hung up On the
wall, the heading Of the board bearing
the words: TRAITORS and enemies to
Labor" After Penrose was murdered
his name was obliterated. The gene
raj impression is that the men will be
held.

Items OF Interest Clipped frosn shs

N9AeE MAA8 W WIS.,

nell mine on White Pine Mountain
has been sold to the Nevada Bank.
A change has been made in the
stage time from here 10 Eureka. II
leaves now at 2 p. NJ, instead OF IL A.
NJ. as heretofore.
A petition is being circulated to
have the mail from Taylor to Phoebe
increased TO a ~tri-weekly. As Phoebe
is now looming up and increasing in
population the petition ought to be
granted by the Postoffice Department.
Judge Talbot writes that he will be
in Ely on the 14th to transact some
preliminary court business and 20 to
Phoebe. The regular business OF the
term in White Pine will not commence
until toward the end Of this month.
"Rattler, Eureka's noted character,
paid Ely a visit this week. Sadler, is
believed to have imported the Base
Range nuisance. "Rattler" was pre-
vailed on by our people to move on TO

county's capital, where the cocktail
route is more extensive than here.
II is rumored that there will be
music in the air before the next Grand
Jury over alleged illegal cattle brand
ing in Steptoe Valley. 1t seems strange
to us that people who are old resi-
dents, and whose fair name and good
reputation in all their other affairs
with their neighbors have stood the test
Of a quarter Of a century, should lay
themselves liable to such q charge.
The old plea among cattle men used
to be that such practices were neces-
sary for self-protection. The old GUS
tom was wrong and stringent laws
have been enacted TO eradicate it.
They should be strictly enforced.
