San Francisco and Salt Lake Railroad

San Francisco and Salt Lake Railroad
The San Francisco Bulletin says :
The survey of the San Francisco and
Great Salt Lake Railway has been fin
;shed to the State line. The work has
been pushed so that it might be COM
pleted before the winter set in. For
this purpose three parties of engineers
we're placed in the field. What was
mapped out for this season, so far as
surveys, locations, etc. are concerned,
has therefore been accomplished. The
great problem before the surveyors was
how to get through the Sierra with prac-
tical grades. The problem of secondary
consideration was the penetration of
Alameda and Contra Costa counties.
The result of the work in both in
stances is considered satisfactory. A
railroad constructor, who has had wide
experience in the building of Pacific
Coast railroads, and who has for years
made study of the Alameda hills,
says that Mr.. Kennedy has run the
best road possible. One of the prime
movers in the San Francisco and Great
Salt Lake Railway enterprise expresses
similar degree Of approval of Mr..
Kennedy's work in the Sierras, and in
the working, leading up to the Beck
with Pass. E. L. G.. Steele, who has
been prominent in the Salt Lake pro-
iect from it's inception, said to-day that
it would take some time to do the ne
cessary profile work in the Offices of the
engineers. 1t has been planned that
the surveys should be complete this
week. 1t is not necessary to push the
work in Nevada at this time, and win
ter is at hand.
During the excitement attendant
upon the pending political campaign,
little has been done toward securing
subscriptions for the further prosecu-
ton of the work. Immediately after

In the opinion of the Sacramento
News Nevada's Silver party is pretty
solid affair, as it seems to contain most
of the fighting politicians of both Old
parties.
The Reno Journal says there are
$500 in that Office to bet that Weaver
will get more votes in Nevada than
Harrison and Cleveland combined.
The polls may be closed and the
votes canvassed when all the voters on
the certified copy of the registry list
have voted, otherwise the polls must
be kept open until 6 o'clock P. n.
The Silver State says this is the law.
The railroads have fixed the rate
from California to the Worlds Fair

REFUTING A SANDER.

Prominent Citizens of Ely Come to
the Defense OF Farmer Burke.
The following correspondence we
find in late issue of the Salt Lake
Tribune
EDITOR TRIBUNE:-We notice in your
valuable paper of the 10th inst. quite
lengthy article written by I'll. V. A.
F. from Gilbert's ranch in this county,
in which the writer attempts, to both
write up and down certain mining
camps and towns in this county, par
ticularly the towns of Cherry Creek and
Schellbourne, and thereabouts. AS to
the remarks made by the writer in said
article, we have but little to say, SO far
as they apply to mines and towns be-
ing deserted, etc., but we do feel it
our duty as citizens of White Pine
county, to refute certain uncalled for
statements, (by innuendo it is true) re-
flecting on the good name and charac-
ter of our worthy citizen William Burke
of Schellbourne, whom this racy writer
styles ga blarney and hypocrite, " terms
which certainly the writer is totally
unwarranted in applying to this aged
gentleman, for they are not appropriate
nor can we believe them to be true.
But the browning injustice the writer
does Mr. Burke, is wherein he states,
that the old gentleman deceives the
parties from Salt Lake, who were ne
gotiating with Mr.. Burke for the pur-
chase of his mines, and virtually char
ges that rock of high grade from some
nearby mine had been brought by Mr..
Burke Tor at his instance), and that the
dumps at the mines he was Offering for
sale were "salted" with this rock for
the purpose of catching his victim.
We do not believe there lives man
in this county who knows Mr.. Burke,
that even so much as imagines that
the old gentlemen ever thought of such
thing, nor do we believe the writer
of the article of the 10Th instant believe
it himself.
In conclusion we would say, in all
earnestness, that we have known Mr..
Burke for many years, and that he
has always borne the reputation of an
honest, upright, truthful and worthy
gentleman, and the statement in said
article referring to him as being dis
honest, untruthful or of attempting to
deceive anybody, or to induce, through
fraud on his part, any party to pur-
chase his property, is an unwarranted
attack upon the character of a worthy
gentleman, and does him great in
justice.

Six Hundred idle Stamps.

Nye county has six hunderd idle
stamps and three hundred voters:
This county was alive with miners,
ranchers and business men before the
demonetization of silver, and it's mines
produced immense output of bullion.
With free coinage every stamp would
be pounding away on the rich ores of
that county and the mines and mills
would give employment to three thou
sand miners. No wonder there are

miles long by 100000 wide, has by
some great cactaclysmic operation
been broken into about 20 smaller
spots. In addition to this, other spots
have appeared, which are situated a
vast distance from the original spot
and are evidently totally Independent
from it. This new development on
the suns surface has attracted the at

WHAT FREE WOOL MEANS.

The Springer free wool bill was re-
Gently reported to the House of Rep
resentatives. A few days ago Mr..
Springer, the foremost champion of
the bill and the democratic leader of
the House, was asked the following
question: If the bill is enacted do you
expect a very large increase in the i'm
portations Of foreign woolens? He re-
piled: eyes, there will undoubtedly
be heavy increase in importations."
This confession exposes in a single
sentence the motive and aim Of free
trade Americans everywhere will do
we'll to mark it's significance. 1t is a
notice served on every American far
mer that raises sheep, every Ameri-
can manufacturer that makes wool
ems, and every operative in American
wooden factories, that it is the DELHI
crate purpose of the democratic party
to cripple and destroy the wool grow
ing and wooden industry of the United
States. 1t is clear, definite state
ment that if the democracy has it's
way OIIO VI LII gig IL WOOA-
ems into this country is to be heavily
increased in volume. There should
be no misunderstanding as to what
free wool means. 1t means that every
additional pound of low-priced for
eign wool that comes into the United
States will displace a pound of wool
grown on the backs of American
sheep. 1t means that every addition
al yard of foreign wooden imported
will displace yard of wooden made
by American labor. It means that the
farmers of the United States are to be
placed in direct competition with the
sheep ranchers of Australia and the
coolie labor of Aisa; that the we'll
paid American wooden worker is to be
put on the same level with the foreign
pauper labor that lives from hand to
mouth on starvation wages and dies
in the workhouse; in short it means
that the vast wool industry of the
United States is to be sacrificed to
crafty the free trade fanatics of the
democratic party.-Press.
