Roth BLIND AND STUPID.

Mr.. Carlisle has given orders for the
closing Of the coinage department Of The
Carson Mint on the LIST Of June. We
take that o. an indication that Mr..
Cleveland's old sntipsthy to silver i'
still TO be continued, and that Congress
will have . hard time TO try 10 stand the
old man off. The reason that the coin
age oil silver 10 to cease is given to be
that there Is no call for that kind oil
money. Put that sentence against, first,
the declaration OF the Constitution, that
the money Of the United States shall be
gold aud silver; then put 10 against the
words Of . United States Senstor.
spoken 10 this city q few months ago,
that in the South they never saw any
coin; then add TO that the words OF the
shopman 10 New York, who, the other
day when . Salt Lake man made q
slight purchase in his establishment and
in psy ment rendered o ten-dollar piece,
received his change in greasy and torn
paper money, whereupon he asked the
merchant il he could not give him
silver money. The merchants reply
was: 1--WE very seldom get any silver.
and when we do we rave il as q curios-
ity." Now, we say with that state OF
facts, starting with such . Constitution
as ours, remembering that under the
legislation of this country. which de-
monetized silver at q time when silver in
this country was worth more than gold,
we repeat that with that statement OF
facts. the announcement Of the Secre-
tsry Of the Treasury that there is no
use for silver dollars in our country, 10
such q confession OF imbecility on the
part Of the men who have been law
makers in our country for the last
twenty years, as was never made before.
The Eastern people are absolutely blind,
and so, while II is pitiful to read OF the
failures Of banks and Of trust companies,
and to know that innocent depositors
are losing their money, there is comfort
behind IL, because il is q certain proof
that the disease is 30 revere that only
drastic remedies will avail, and only
by tears will the films be washed from
the eyes Of the Eastern people so that
they can see things Alright. They will
begin to coin silver again soon and the
people will begin to use it very soon or
there win be such q collapse in business,
such universal bankruptcy and chaos,
as will make our free people seem more
like lunatics than like sensible men,

The Columbian bell, which is to be
cast at the Clinton foundry ct Albany,
N. Y, will contain many relics OF
great value besides gold and silver
specimens from the mining States. The

which consist largely Of gold and silver,
have arrived ct the foundry. Two

from Washington, and nickels, dimes

Her contract price was 50. 100. 900. her

increase over that speed was to be paid

She made her trial trip and ID resulted In
making 2l.09 knots, with some additions
TO be made for the tide on one.half OF

TURKISH BATHS AND HEAsr
DISEASE,

We see IL 60 often stated that those
who have the slightest trace OF heart
disease should never take Turkish baths
that we welcome q word on this subject
from the London Lancet, which says;
ut would be idle 10 say that the Turk
ish bath should never be employed IN
any case where there is any disease OF
the heart, for attested records show that
patients suffering from well-marked al
ular disease have in many cases derived
considerable benefit from its use, and
the records of more than q lunatio
ASYLUM show tina. the influence OF the
Turkish bath In varied forms Of mental
disorders and cerebral diseases has
been most beneficial. 10 fact, In dropsy
from heart disease, as In dropey from
kidney disease, in albuminuris and me.
mia, the Turkish bath has proved . po-
tent agent. So thst IL would be injudi-
cious to lay down as q canon, that either
heart disease or cerebral disorder con-
tra.indicste the bath; they may prove
direct indications for ID. But they GER
tainly afford grounds for care and rea-
SON for insisting on close supervision and
vIgilaut watching. The therspeusioal
effects Of the Turkish bath deserve the
continued study Of the profession; 10 has
proved itself, as we anticipated, q potent
thereapueticsl agent. Sir John Fife,
DR.. Barter, DIR. Lockhart Robertson and
others have, on q large scale. applied
most usefully this invaluable introduce
tion o. MI. Urquhart. to whom . great
debt is due for impelling the creation
OF these baths in London" This 10

An income tax on all incomes over

ANOTHER TRANsCONTINENTAL
RAILROAD.

The Railway Age lie authority for the
statement that work will soon COM
meuce upon the extension of the North
western railroad from its present termi-
nus at Caspar, Wyoming. to Ogden,
Utah. From this, as the main line, a
branch will be built south to Rawlins,
and another northwesterly TO Lander.
The Ogden Standard quotes from
Denver papers to show that this means
the establishment of another competitor
for transcontinental traffic and it is the
opinion Of some persons that the new
line will be the most formidable Of all.
The distance from Chicago to Ogden by
the Northwestern to Casper, its present
terminus, the distance l,l02 miles and
from Casper to Ogden by q practical
route is between 300 and 400 miles.
If the Northwestern contemplates 4
tending it's line to the Pacific coast. it
will doubtless make arrangements with
the Air Line to secure its franchise
through Nevada. This franchise was
extended by the Legislature last Winter.
The Act provides that when the Utah
and Nevada Air Line Company shall
have constructed q first-class railroad OF
standard guage through the counties OF
White Pine, Eureka, Lander, Churchill
and Washoe il shall be entitled to re-
ceivs the bonds of said counties to the
amount Of 5000 per mile for each and
every mile of main track completed in
each Of said counties.
The bonus ought to be sufficient in
ducement to the Northwestern to coop
crate with the Air Line Company. 1t
amounts in the aggregate to about
81, $50, 900, which il is estimated would
pay the expense Of grading the road,
building bridges, etc., through the State
Of Nevada.
II is now almost certain that II the
Air Line is to be built IL will be from
the east, and not the west, as San Fran
cisco shows no disposition to build in
this direction, and as the N~orthwestern
has q fully equipped line from Chicago
to Wyoming. which 10 intends to extend
TO tidewater on the Pacific Coast, it's
operations will be watched with consid-
cradle interest by the people Of Nevada
who desire another transcontinental line
built across the State.-Reno Journal.

assay office. The assay Office will still
continue in operation, retaining about
twenty-five men in Office. The ex-

Of the Carson Mint at this time is
that there has not been sufficient bull
