The Southern Pacific company has
materially reduced the rates on east
bound freights. The cut was made to
make business improbable for the
North American Navigation company,
which has established line between
San Francisco and New York, by way
of the Panama railroad. The reduc-
ton made by the railroad is given in
dollars and cents per 100 pounds by
the Examiner as follows: =
Wool in the grease, 70 cents; scour-
ed wool, 81 10; borax and wine, 80
cents; rags: 65 cents. The old rate on
creased wool was 81; secured wool,
81 so; borax and wine, 30 cents; rags,
ST.. Three months ago the Southern
Pacific charged on creased wool 81 30,
and on secured wool 80 80.
About six months ago the rate on
borax, wine and rags was ST.. TO show
the meaning of the reductions in an
other way it can be stated that to-day
it costs the merchants $50 less a car
load of 20, 1000 pounds to ship creased
wool from here to the Atlantic seaboard
than was the case on Tuesday; $50
less for secured wool; $40 less for wine
and borax, and 500 less for rags.
The reductions from rates of six
months ago are respectively per car
load $3.50 on creased wool; $3.50 on
secured wool; $40 on borax and wine,
and $40 on rags.

The Truckee Meadows.

Dave Crosby informs the Virginia
Chronicle that hay on the Truckee
Meadows is very scarce. It commands
price of SO per ton in the stack and
$12 is asked for baled hay-and there
is none to be had at those prices be-
tween Reno and the foot of the grade.
The old hay that has been in the stack
for two years is being utilized for the
feeding of stock and liberal prices are
being paid for it, some of the pur-
chasers hauling it six miles for feed.
Stock on the Meadows is in poor
condition, and horses are being sold
very cheap. Crosby and AL. Luke
bought two carloads of horses-4O
head-at unprecedently low prices,
which they will ship to San Francisco
about Monday next. Good work
horses are being sold for $50 a pair.

An Important strike.

David Smith returned last Tuesday
from visit at Morey, Nye county,
Nevada. He informs us that strike
of great Importance was made last
week in the Magnolia, one of series
of mines principally owned by HI. A.
Cohen. The strike was made in the
Keyser tunnel, at the depth of about
$50 feet from the surface. The ledge
matter varies in width from six to eigh-
teen inches, all of which assays from
800 to 400 ounces in silver, and some
of the assays run as high ssas 81, 600
per ton. This is an important strike
for the reason that the knowing ones
have always croaked and said that
the ore did not go down. The late
strike has demonstrated that the ore
does go down, and there is no telling
to what depth it will go.-Eureka
Sentinel.

Lander County Imdigemts.

One of the greatest sources of ex-
pense to Lander county is its indi-
gents. In dealing with the subject
very knoty questions arise. Yet every
month large sum of money is paid
out to indigents, and while some are
worthy and deserving of assistance,
others are not entitled to cent. Sew
eral unworthy persons have been on
the list regularly for years, with no pros
pect eff their being taken off.
Such persons wear better clothes,
eat better provisions and live in better
furnished houses than many of our peo-
pie who have never received cents
aid from the county. There is not a
county in the State that annually ex-
ponds as much money for the poor as
Lander does and so much of it con-
trary to the law. While retrenchment
and reform and economy are the watch
words, why not take up this subject
and give it needed attention?
We simply throw out this suggestion
that those in authority over the poor
may look into the matter and bring
about the necessary reformation. Re
veille.

Utah Fair Rates-@7O for the Round

A Chicago special of the 10Th says:
The basis of the Worlds Fair rates

basis will be 20 per cent reduction

with the exception of one line which
voted in favor of $40 round trip rates.
From Utah common points the rate
will be fare and third for the round
trip. The present one way rates are
$3.50. The agreed Worlds Fair
round trip rite is $40. No round trip
rates are now quoted from either Col
orado or Utah common points. The
trans Missouri lines will soon consider
the establishment of one way rates and
special excursion rates. The basis as
agreed to will cause slightly higher
round trip rate from California. The
lines interested in the Pacific Coast
business will meet Monday to establish
Worlds Fair rates and are almost GER
tain to decide on 800 basis for the

Lifts Grand Opera House.

Though Jacob Lift is not personally
known to many people in st. Paul, it is
not exaggerating to say his name is ia
miliar in almost every household. From
the very day of it's opening the Grand
opera house has been popular. Its erec-
ton constituted one of the strongest
links in a chain of theaters wherein
Mr.. Lift had determined to produce a
class of favorite plays at popular prices.
His ventures have proved successful
in more than ordinary measure, and the
st. Paul house is no small contributor
to Mr.. Lifts treasury. Its clientage is
steady, and very seldom is it that COM
pany plays to vacant seats at the Grand.
The policy of the managers of the house
has been liberal and pleasing, with the
result that it's standing with the public
is frst-class. Equipped to accommodate
almost any combination that travels,
the home-like theater at the corner of
Sixth and st. Peter, no doubt, has a
long career of usefulness before 1t.

Richard T. O'Connor was born and
raised in st. Paul, and is known by
every adult male in the city. He has
made the most efficient clerk of courts
Ramsey county ever had, and estab-
liShed system that is perfect and is
the admiration of visitors from similar
offices in other large cities. The excel
lent conduct of the affairs Of this impor-
tant office is the result of his methOdical
habits and excellent Judgment. There
never has been any complaint of the
way the large and varied business of
the office has been conducted, aud never
will be under his administration. Every
paper is always found in its place,
and there is no delay in searching
records or looking for legal documents.
Mr.. OConnor is not man of many
words, and does not secure his popular
ity by heaping empty compliments.
His executive ability has often brought
him abuse from his opponents in poll
tics, but he is reg arded as staunch
friend by his acquaintances, and his
political opponents have never i'm
peaehed his integrity in business affairs.
