Sulphur, Soda and Borax.

DIR. W. H. Patterson, R. +. HOFFMAN
and DIR. j. w. Phillips have been pros
pecting the locations they bought from
Hank Miller in Putah Valley, Amigdio
Canyon, and Deep Hole from sixty-five
to ninety miles from Wadsworth. They
found an abundance of borate OF lime and
sulphur, also hot springs which can
be made to economic the fuel expense
OF manufacture. 1t has not been deter
mined in exactly what manner these
deposits will be worked, whether for
borax or for boracic acid, there being
upon the locations carbonate of soda for
the former method and sulphur for the
latter, all forming a happy combination
of accessories for a profitable industry.
The roads are fairly good for the entire
distance.

Newspapers as Necessities Of Life.

The newspaper has become u n~ecessi-
ty to Americans, and to be shut out from
a knowledge of what is going on in the
world would be as great a hardship to
them as any other except lack OF food
clothing, or shelter. The life is more
than meat, and the body more than raj
ment and the satisfaction of the mind
is as legitimate as the satisfaction of the
bodily wants, and OF a higher order. The
newspaper is the university and library
OF the people, the common school oil
manhood. IL is the great debating club
of politics, the.exchange of business ex.
.perience. 1t is necessary to the proper
discharge OF the political duties of the
citizen.
Bnt a newspaper, at least a good
newspaper, is more than a necessity. II
brings into the narrowest life some sense
of the vast life of the world. 1t is full
of tragedy and comedy, wit and passion,
the heroic and the humble. the crime
and the merriment OF nations. 1t is a
great realist history. 1t is a daily COM
mentary upon human nature.

THE NEXT CAMPAIGN.

Congressman Newlands passed here
yesterday on his return to Washington.
In conversation with a Silver State re-
porter he expressed himself as follows:
He had hoped to be able to stay over
at Reno and address the people on the
issues Of the day, but he was unavoid-
ably detained one day longer in San
Francisco than he had figured on, and
because Of the urgent necessity of his
presence in Washington he could not
spare the time to do SO; he was anxious
for the fall campaign, so that he could
tell the people from the stump how the
two old parties had been weighed in the
balance and found wanting. He said
the present political situation is thus
The great majority OF the Democrats in
in both houses of congress favor the free
coinage Of silver, but the minority, act
ing with the Republicans, are able in
conjunction with the president to defeat
all favorable legislation that the Popu-
list is the only nationol party that has
remained true to silver.
The Democrats and Republicans OF the
Eastern states are one on the money
question, and this will make the ques-
ton q sectional one and the burning
issue in the next presidential election.
Whatever their names may be there will
be but two great parties in 1896-the
Gold party, intrenched in the creditor
states Of New England and the Middle
states, and the Silver party, embracing
the sentiment of the debtor and produe-
ing states, the South and West.
By that time the people will have
learned that the tariff has nothing to do
with falling prices and the consequent
depression of all lines of business and
industry they will realize that almost
the sole cause of falling prices through
out the world is the appreciation OF gold
and that the only way to check this APP
probation is to restore to full monetary
use its only competitor, silver; and that
this could never be done by placing the
power of legislation in the hands OF our
enemies, as the two old parties have
proven themselves to be. He is conf
dent there will be a great revolt in the
Southern states against C~levelandism at
the next election, and that it cannot
possibly accrue to the advantage Of the
Republican party.
Concerning the attempt of a few dis.
tinguished gentlemen in the western
part of the state to revive the Republi.
a party, he thought it was a great
mistake; that the Silver party was good
enough a party for any Nevadan to be-
long to and support, and he had been in
hopes that the few Republicans and
Democrats in the state, after their over
whelming defeat in the last campaign,
would see the error OF their way and
come yer to the Silver party and make
Nevada a unit in the fight for silver.

THE GOOD THE RAIN DID.
The Truck Crops Benefited Many
Thousands of Dollars


Yesterday mornings rain brought pleas
ure to many who have been looking for a
good hard shower for the last three weeks
or month. 1t no doubt did the vegetables
good everywhere, and has made things
generally look brighter and better and
cleaner.
The indications from the forecast for
today are that there will be showers in
or around Savannah, attended by thun-
der storm, with slightly cooler tempera-
ture this afternoon.
Several truck farmers said yesterday
that the rain had been god send to them.
AS one of them expressed it, 1--WE were
just in the position of man who is a bout
to go into bankruptcy for the lack of
money with which to carry on his bust
ness, who suddenly comes into the pos
session of all the money he can use.
There is great deal Of truck still in the
ground which will be immensely bene-
fitted by the showers. Only a small
proportion of the potato crop has been
dug and the growth Of the young potatoes
will be materially advanced by the rain.
Beans, too, which were dying for want
of rain, have put out wonderfully already
and will make a much larger crop than
was expected few days ago. The Gu
cuniber crop has been greatly helped by
all the showers also The watermelon
and muskmelon crops have been greatly
helped by the rains, as well as almost
everything else that the farmers had in
the ground. Many of the farmers are
busy now setting out lsweet potato slips
which they have been unable to do here
tofore on account of the dryness of the
coil

POLITICS IN THOMAS.

county met IN this city to-day and called
a mass meeting for June l6. to select or
provide for selecting delegates TO the
gubernatorial, senatorial and congress-
ional conventions.
The political pot has begun to simmer.
H w Hopkins, now mayor of Thomas
vile, is in the field for the legislature
He is a strong Candidate, both in the city
and county, and Will be elected.
S. A. Roddcnoerry Jr., will probably
run again and be elected.
j. L. Hall, the other sitting member in
the legislature, will retire voluntarily
The rotation system viii give the sen
ator to Colquitt county and j. b. Norman
is the most prominent candidate.
The chief contest will be in the con-
gressional race. Hon Ben Russell, the
present member will be in the field, and
will make formidable competitor
Capt. Jesse w. Walters, Of Albany. is a
candidate also, and he will be hard to
down.
James Gary, of Terrill, may also run
and il he does he can make things warm
for his opponents.
Col. Robert L. Mitchell, of this city
could win if he would turn himself loose
and stir the boys up
Capt. William NJ Hammond, of this
city, easily the peer of any man in the
state, may yet be heard from He led a
forlorn hope in the last election and car
ried his man to a glorious victory. If
Representative Russell can get the nomi-
nation, however, Capt. Hammond will
not run.
The county seems to be for Evans, but
the people have little enthusiasm, and a
little thing may carry the county Tor
Atkinson.
