The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1892-01-18

! De credit 10 LOS Angeles or San
Jose. The merchants all prosper.
The mystery is, how they can afford
to sell goods SO cheap. Mr.. S. j.
Edmundson, who is newcomer, has
built up an extensive and substantial
1 business. P. X. Ried, Mrs. Torrey
and S. R. Young are coming money.
Mr.. Ried will erect large stone
building with the opening of spring;
his trade has out-grown its present
quarters. OF Steve Young we don't
know what we could say that would
be new and fresh. We presume he
is one of the most extensive dealers
in the State. A placard in his store
says: money to Loan" The three
clerks, Sandlin, Bacon and Cozzens,
are busy all the time. Eugene gave
us the following market quotations
the other day: Young men-steady;
girls-lively and in demand; papas-
firm, but declining; mammas-un-
settled, but waiting for higher bids;
ENTHUSIASTICALLY mixed fresh fish
active and slippery; wheat--a grain
better than barley; eggs-quiet, but
will probably open up in short
time; Enthusiastically going down;
onions-stronga and rising; breadstuffs
heavy; boot and shoes-those in
market are soled and constantly going
up and down; hats and caps-not as
as high as last winter, except FOOLS
cap, which is stationary; tobacco
very low and has downward tend
ency; silver-close, but not close
enough to get hold of. As we were
leaving the constable told us there
were a good many peas in pepper,
but good many more in coffee.
The town supports two well
patronized butcher shops, owned by
Messrs. Fuss and Feliz and then we
have the irresistible Chinatown. Mr..
Donelin and Miss Connor attend to
the telegraph Office in a systematic and
accommodating manner. Mrs. R. 5.
Reeves has the. school in first-class
condition, while Miss J. Gaunt is
making complete success of her
school on Big Meadows. The Marker
District pupils are abreast of the times,
owing to their natural ability. Rev.
Briggs is doing his best for the morals
of the community. He holds both
Church and Sunday school. Joe
Rouse is on terra-firma, as are also
the time-honored patriarchs, S. J.
Bonnifeld, Sr., and Geo. Lovelock
Sr. Geo. Lovelock, Jr., has been on
the sick list, but is now convalescent.
James Johnson and family of Lake
view are going into the ranching
business with Paul Johnson. Mr..
and Mrs. Downing and two daughters
of Saratoga, N. Y, are now abiding
,,y;tI NTrc A,.fh hpr Il oxuIax, u-hn ic
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. d.
Geo. Ladd, who as Il teamster has
no peer, is hauling gypsum. He is
driving three wagons, using about 20
animals. Dan Lovelock can mix you
as fine Tom and Jerry as ever went
down your neck. He is doing the
honors at the Pony Saloon. DIR.
Tavener has been fixing up his es-
! tablishment in such fine shape, hav-
ing had Finley Cook of Reno to do the
interior decorating, that we naturally
conclude that there is either going to
be Mrs. Tavener or else restaurant.
Which is it? Allie Edmondson is the
most obliging postmaster that ever
came under our observation. Robert
Welsh is, as usual, filling his Golfers
with the filthy lucre, since he is ex-
tensively engaged in the sheep busi-
ness. Mrs. Banks does a thriving
dressmaking business, and the
Doctor has professional calls
from far and near, night and
day. Al. Hull has more blacksmith
ing than he can tend to. Mr.. Steven
son of Reno has recently erected one
Cyclone and four Star windmills here
abouts. n. P. Damn has the Cyclone
and Hon. N. Nelson, j. r. Brown
and two other parties have new Stars.
J. r. Brown has the largest stack OF
hay in the country, and Peter Anker
the finest granary.
We have written far into the night
and wearied our readers. The snow
flies and the north wind whistles
around the house. New calendars
are the order of exercises and you are
admonished to take ''Too-re" between
every change of the moon. New
Year has come and gone; it has
dawned on weddings and on funerals,
on homes of happiness and homes OF
sorrow, and still we go on in the old
way, taking the storm and the sun
shine with what patience we can.
Let each one study the human heart,
both by inspection and revelation of
the Creators aim and purpose with
mankind; the lesson thus gained will
