The Silver Outlook.

New York Nov. 30.-The Roth
childs already have their paid agents
here to howl to for the repeal Of the
Sherman act (socalled) just as they
had the biggest lobby ever known to
procure the assassination Of the sill
yer in 1873. The idiots of Wall
street, blind as Sampson at the mills
of GAIA, are determined to work
their own ruin. They think that
if the bill is repealed. the money bag
bankers abroad who undertake to
run this county in finances, will
come in and take some portion Of
the thousands Of millions of new
chromos off their hands. In this
they are mistaken.
. If the bill is repealed silver will
decline, anu with il wheat, cotton
and all the great products of this
country. These products are all the
satellites Of silver and this is proven
by the fact that they have all declined
in the wake of silver. Silver meas
u1ed BY any other product than gold,
as you so admirably formulate it, will
buy as much as it ever would, al
though outlawed and degraded to
commodity. Let Wall Street be
ware. With wheat at go cents and
cotton at . cents, not only the West
but Wall street Will be bursted. Eu-
rope and the octopus may crack the
whip over US and get our products at
her own prices, but there will be
breakers ahead. Balfour sees what
the further decline in silver and the
increased purchasing power Of gold
will do for England.

band, who was wreck for years,
took treatment in an institute over
three years ago and has no desire to
touch liquor since, but it cost US
over 500. | had brother law,
chemist, slave to drink, but too
poor to take treatment. He analyz-
ed the medicine my husband brought
home and cured himself. -Four Of
our acquaintance got the prescrlp-
ton and cured themselves:

ate OF ammonia, I1z grains; comp.

ounces.

no desire for drink Medicine to
effect cure will net cost over $3.50.

THE STORM.
The Snow Coming Down in Sheets.

The Snow Coming Down in Sheets
Yesterday thu RAIN changed t
snow with fall in the temperature
and the snow fell il such voldmn thai
at times it seemed to come down IN
sheets.
Some of the flakes were an inch
across and so moist that they stuck
to everything they touched, ard the
branches of the trees were soon
loaded.
Such rapid continuous fall has
not been witnessed III Carson for
years. There was no longer any
doubt of winter being on deck in
dead earnest when people saw the
way the storm put in It's heavy ticks.
How lorg the thing will keep up
the Lord only knows.
The weather reports from the Bay
indicate that this is the big storm
that played such havoc there, and
the Signal Service says that the back
of the storm is broken at that point,
and clear weather may be expected.
The old sailors along the water
front insist that the weather is shap
ing for a hurricane such as has not
visited the Coast for fifty years. A
hurricane means a wind velocity Of
100 miles an hour. Such wind
would do millions Of dollars damage
to the country
The biz mountain range, however,
would break the force Of such a
storm and it would not be apt to
strike ,evada SO heavily At last
accounts ten feet Of snow bad fallen
ut Bodie, six feet at the lake, seven
feet at Summit, on the S. p. E. r.,
where all the available snow plows
are out fighting their way through
the drifts to keep the line clear.
The wires were down yesterday on
the mountains, but the Eastern wires
were working last night part of the
time.
The v. & I. will put snow plows
81 oday to keep the line clear.
Aside from the temporary inconven-
fence All agree that biz storm now
viii DO e county more good than
harm, provided it does not fall SO
deep as to keep the stock on the
ranges from eating and moving to
water.

Mulder Goes Free.

The Grand Jury decided not to IN
dict Mulder. A dozen witnesses tes-
tilted to the various methods employ
ed to fleece the public and he was
clearly guilty Of felony under the law.
The Grand Jury however took into
consideration the expense of bringing
him back from place so remote as
Galveston, Texas and found no bill
against him.
1t is the general opinion in this
community that he should have been
indicted and brought back where a
few years in the penitentiary would
have been a wholesome lesson to him.

A Blockade.

The five o'clock local to Virginia
was blockaded between Gold Hill and
Virginia last evening, aud consequent
ly the passenger did not arrive in
Carson last night from Virginia.
Men are at work on the blockade
and last night at 10 o'clock a snow
pillow was sent up. The wind was
blowing a gale all the afternoon on
the Comstock, and the snow is badly
drifted 1t is not expected that the
blockade will be lifted before 10
O'Clock TODAY.
