The first message over the Atlantic
cable was a dispatch from Queen Vic
toria to President Buchanan. There
were ninety-fve words in the message,
but owing to something getting wrong
with the wires it wal twenty.four
hours from the time that the first
word was received until the last word
was taken off. The principal part Of
the message was the Queens expression
of the wish that the cable would prove
a bond Of union and q link of friend
ship between the two great nations.
Mr.. Buchanan heartily concurrsd in this
wish and incidentally remarked to her
Majesty that in his estimation this
browning triumph Of science would
prove a greater boon to humanity in gen.
eral than the results Of all the hard
fought battles ever won."

Winter dies a very hard death this
year.
High winds, snow, rain and cold,
blustry weather 10 April makes every
thing very backward, around this neck
Of the woods.
G. W. Grayson was here two days
last week planning the Spring work for
his ranch this season. but left here with
the chills and q heavy overcast.
Last Thursday G. W. Dickson OF Aus
tin loaded and shipped twenty-five car
loads Of the finest beef cattle that ever
left this station, so the boys" say. 1t
pays to raise good stock, as there is a
big demand for it. Several Eastern and
| Western buyers were here to bid on the
cattle. Mr.. Judge Of San Francisco got
the train load and paid a big price for
them.
f. B. Swales, our mutton man, I'm
ished shearing his sheep last Wednes-
day and shipped his wool to San Fran
cisco on the special stock train that
left here Thursday evening. He has
had very good luck with his sheep the
past year and is making more money
on q small capital than SOM OF our
large rancbers. He did say that II
Cleveland was elected he would sell
! out and leave the country, but we ex-
pect to have his company for several
wears to come il he does not get lost

Simeon Wenban, in company with
Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. p. Shaw. went up
to Cortez on last Thursdays stage to
look after their worldly interests
around Mount Tanibo. and we fear
that there will be q great many disap-

back and look on for awhile, as the

AZ we briefly noted in our columns
yesterday, says the Winnemuecs Silver
State. c. C. Wallace OF Eureka has re-
signed his position OF County Assessor,
which be has filed for many years, and
gone to see the old folks in Pennsylva-
nis. from whom he has been absent q
quarter Of . century. He has always
done credit to himself and to his con-
stituents 10 all Of his official positions,
and he hiss occupied several in this
State. He Is the soul Of honor in ell OF
his public and private relations and bus
mess engagements. Many mining pros
pectors are under obligations to him for
their mining outfit and for the means to
develop their mines, many Of which
have brought fortunes to their owners,
"Charley," as be is Familiarity called, has
taken an active and leading part In poll
tics and has proved himself to be the
shrewdest political leader on this Coast.
The secret Of his success lies in his
knowledge Of human nature, OF men
and measures, and in his conscientious
convictions and answering integrity,
coupled with great executive ability and
mastery skill in organization. Besides,
he spurns the trickery and methods Of
political tricksters, and thus gains the
confidence Of men whom he never be-
trays. He did herculean work In sever
ing shsckles Of party tyranny in the late
election, and in aiding Nevada to main
tain its self.respect and independent
manhood against the combined Doodle
Of Wall street and its allied conspira-
tors in and out Of the State. 10 all
the relations Of life he ia true as steel,
affable, kind and generous. He never
Furnishes a friend. and is not in the
habit Of rewarding an enemy either In
or out Of politics. The Silver State
wishes him a pleasant visit, and in COM
mon with the people Of Nevada will
welcome his return.

In the recent weekly medical article
which appeared in the New York Her-
AIDS European edition some interesting
facts are given showing the extent to
which bank notes are carriers Of disease.
II is popularity supposed that paper
money, however soiled by indiscriminate
use, is not capable Of conveying any
serious amount Of infection, and hence
ii is not to see il hsndled
without caution. But it is not certain
that the infection in bank notes is infni-
tesimal or insignificant. Few persons
smitten down with erysipelas. diphthe-
ria, t~urbucolosis, typhoid aud other
microbian diseases can find out how they
contracted the disease. But perhaps
not in a few cases the malady has been
derived from the paper currency which
unfortunately cannot be d~isinfected.

d ANNEXATION.

The Salt Lake Tribune says: Our
morning neighbor discusses the annexa-
tion Of Utah TO Nevada. II refers TO .
letter written BY Senator Stewart TO .
friend in Nevada. saying that neither he
nor Senator Jones would do anything
about the matter without the full con-
sent Of the people Of Nevada, and then
asks: "What about the people Of Utah.
Are they to have no consideration? Pos.
sibly the annexation might be effected
without consulting Utah ct ALL" and
thinks that the Nevada Senators 'had
better consult the interests Of the
Utonians, for they will be likely to have
something to say here, even II Utah 10
only a Territory. At present she wants
nc annexation in hers" Some Of the
foremost papers Of the East are urging
the annexation Of Utah to Nevads, and we
sre not at all certain that Congress may
not, without very much consultation
with the people Of this Territory, pro-
coed to attach Utah to Nevada. The
long term Senator, while not Q Demo
erat, is acting with the Populists, and
the short term Senator's term will not
last very much longer. A Congressman
is to be elected a year from next Fall,
and there is a disposition in the East not
to give the West any more Senators II
they can help it-either Republican or
Democrat. But then we believe, not.
withstanding all those things, that Con-
gress would hesitate about making the
consolidation il ii were protested
against BY an overwhelming majority Of
the people. We doubt very much
whether such q protest will ever come.
We doubt 10 because there are . great
many Mormons in Nevada. The heads
OF the Church in this Territory have
always looked upon Nevada as territory
which was taken away from them. They
have votes enough to be in control, even
with the two regions again united, and
we do not believe the rank and file Of
the people care three straws whether
the arrangement shall be made or not.
Among the Gentiles there are as many
who favor the proposition as are opposed
to it; 30 IL the matter should come down
to . contest it would 90 as the heads Of
the Church here decide, and we think it
would be an easy matter to convince
them that it would be all right. We
have no authority in the world for this
view except reasoning on the nature Of
the situation and keeping in mind that,
all the time for forty years, the strug-
gle Of the Saints has been to get their
center stake surrounded by State lines.
There are about forty politicians in this
city and Ogden who think such an ar
rangement would be taking away an OPP
portunity for q whole set of State Off
GERS. and they Of course will object, but
we do not believe the probability or pos
sibility Of such q change is a matter Of
the least concern in the world to the
great mass of the people.

LIFE INSURANCE OF RICH MEN.

-
Elliott F. Shepard, Notwithstanding
his great wealth, felt the Importance of
life insurance, and leaves a policy Of
$1,000 600. He applied to another COM
pany for a similar amount, but was re-
fused, as the medical examination was
unsatisfactory. 1t may seem strange
that a man worth millions should desire
life insurance, but Colonel Shepard had
seen SO many rich men dying poor, and
yet leaving their families provided for
by life insurance, that he determined to
make a similar provision. He was the
best insured Of all our journalists K
cspt Greeley, on whom the Tribune
Association placed $500. 900. 1t was
this money that enabled the latter to
erect it's present printing-house. Most
Of the editors in this city are insured
for as much as they can carry. A very
remarkable instance Of the value of
life insurance is found in Cyrus w.
Field, who was at one time rated to
be worth at least $1,000. 900. and yet
after his death there was but little left
for his family except the life policy,
which he secured nearly forty years pre-.
viously, and which had increased i'm
mensely by natural growth. The Equi-
table, which insured Colonel Shepard for
500, 900. is very rich, and it's President

which recently purchased the New York
Times. He is worth two or three mill

fortune in the journalistic experiment.

Senator Hill is reported to have
''smiled significantly" in q recent inter-
view in New York, and to have said
something to this effect: 81 am in favor
of giving Mr.. Cleveland all the rope he
wants. He will soon have enough to
hang himself. When the time comes to
strike you may rest assured that l and
my friends will be there. 1t is impor-
tant, however to put the administration

Cleveland is playing into our hands

people who had worked during the
meetings, and to the women, the chill
dren and the music. The finances did
not quite come up to expectation, but
they were in good shape considering the
condition OF the times. He thanked the
representatives of the press for their
dignitied reports, and, In conclusion,
said he had never had charge of Il camp
before and he did not know how to end
this one.
The first prayer was offered by Mr..
Barrett. He prayed that the good in
huence would spread, that Wilmington
would receive baptism of the Holy
Ghost and that the country charges
would catch the flame.
After "Are you happy in the Lord ,"
had been sung, Mr.. Hubbard called upon
the persons named to represent the fol-
lowing: The Rev. John White, the local
preachers and laymen; the Rev. w. y.
Tomkinson, the board of trustees; N.
l., Janney, people who do not belong to
Methodism; George W. Roberts, the
newspapers; Mrs. w. E. Tamkinson,
the women; Lewis Fox, the converts;
Mr. Short, the children; Mr.. Barrett,
the preachers; Mrs. Charles Walton, tine
tentholders; Miss Walton, seekers OF re-
ligion; Thomas johnson, the camp
grounds. Mr.. Barrett said he had never
seen more devoted work than that
which has Just been done here by the
preachers and laymen. Forces had been
set in motion that are going TO roll on.
The addresses were interspersed by
the following hymns: "Tell it with
Gladness," "Wiuning Souls for Jesus"
go and Follow Jesus" "l'll Sing my
Dear Redeemer's Praise" HE Led me
to His Pastures Green" an Rest on
His Promise" "Oh, it's Glory" and al
Wandered Far Away From God" The
closing prayer was offered by Mr. Hub
bard. He prayed that 200 souls might
be brought to God at the next encamp-
ment. Following the singing of the
doxology the gathering was dismissed
with the benediction, which was pro-
nounced by Mr.. Barrett. AT the con-
clusion Of the exercises adieus were ex-
changed and most of the people or the
campgrounds started homewaid.
