There will be almost no hay in the

this year, and Nevada hay will be in big
demand. A Reno a who drove from
the American clear through to Bear river

is too late to make one. What grain
there was is being cut into the milk, and
it will make a little hay, but nothing to.

Our School Election.
Read what T. v. Julian says in the
Gazette about the election of School
Trustees in Reno. 1t applies equally
well to Wadsworth.
Editor Gazette An election for School
Trustees in this district will probably
be held on the last Monday in this
month. There should be no thought of
partisan strike in an election of that
kind. Our free school system is main
tanned for the benefit of all, rich and
poor alike. Its benefits are too great
and too sacred to warrant a thought of
political strife in the selection of officers
or teachers, and the only way I see to
.efectually evade political strife is to
make NO nominations whatever. Let
every voter make his selection at the
polls. Before election day arrives all
who take an interest in the proper man
agement Of the schools will have talked
the matter over, and will be prepared
to make a much better selection of
officers than required to follow the
suggestions of partisan manipulators.
Trustees selected in this manner would
feel under no sort OF obligations to any
party or sect.

KEEPING UP WARSfilPS.
What the New Navy Is Costing the
Government.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-The report of
Paymaster-General Edwin Stewart OF the
navy for the fiscal year ended June 80 last
is document of unusual interest. 1t pre-
sents more complete exhibit of the finan-
cia affairs of the department than has
ever been made before. The total amount
expended on account of the naval estab-
lishment for the fiscal year ended June 80.
1894, was S31. $40, 144 81, the largest item
being SIS, 251, ,072 for payments on new ships
IN process of construction, other than
labor.
One of the most interesting tables in the
report is that showing the cost of main
tanning in commission the various ships
The charges against this account include
the pay OF officers, crew and marines,
pilotage, coal and all expenditures of
money and material excepting those for
repairs. During the period covered by
the report OF the Paymaster the cost of the
United States steamship Chicago (second
rate) was $310. .613 so, the Yorktown third
rate) $169,907 So and the Petrol (fourth
ratey S103, ,502 7S These figures afford an
approximate cost of maintaining vessels
of the different classes. The cost of main
renance of the New York Navy-yard was
SCI, ,556,5 572 and of the Pensacola Navy
yard $54O, 341 80. These amounts include
the cost of officers and clerks and of labor
and material applying to the erection, re-
pair, care and preservation of the

GIVE TARIFF A REST.
Cleveland Wants to Reopen the
Question.
Germany's Objection to the Sugar
Schedule Viii Furnish the
Point of Attack.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 21.-President
Cleveland is likely to introduce the tariff
question into Congress by recommenda-
ton in his message that the discriminating
duty of one cent pound upon all bounty
paid sugars imported into the United
States shall be abolished by the repeal of
that portion of the new tariff law. This
will be done, nominally, because of COM
plants which have been received from the
German Government that these dscrimi-
nations, if not in contravention of treaty
obligations, are certainly likely to result
in retaliation Oh the part of the German
Government.
If the Republicans who have already ex-
pressed themselves as TO the financial policy
of the administration shall adhere to their
views. and if the rest of the Republican
Senators shall be in accord with them, this
recommendation of the President will not
receive any more consideration than the
numerous popgun tariff bills which have
been sent to the Senate by the House.
Senator Platt, in an interview recently
published. has already indicated that, in
his judgment, the Republicans will not
even assent to any change of the sugar
schedule, Objectionable as it is to them, in
any of its features. The reason is assigned
that the tariff question cannot be opened
at any one point unless the whole subject
is brought up for consideration, and the
Republicans are determined that tinkering
with the tariff shall not be permitted at
this session.
How iDfue entail the threats of retaliation
by the German Government may be re-
mains to be seen, but the opponents of
change in the sugar schedule have already
been furnished with an adequate answer
by a member of the administration. The
Secretary of Agriculture, who has just
returned from Europe, and who has given
the subject of retaliation careful consider
alton, has recently said that the threats of
Germany in this particular ought not to
alarm the United States, for the Govern
ment has it in its power to retaliate against
Germany By a law already in existence,
and all that it is necessary for the United
States to do to retort upon Germany for
any avowed policy of retaliation is for
President Cleveland to issue his proclama-
ton imposing discrimination against the
products of Germany. The xisting law
gives the President authority for such
course.

HE AIDED CRIMINALS.
Sensation in the Tennessee
Lynching Case.
Sheriff McCarVer Accused of Using
His Office to Thwart the
Prosecution.

MEMPHIS, Nov. N.-To-day's proceed
ings in the murder trial of Smith and
Richardson, charged with lynching six
negroes, have been of most sensational
character. Sheriff McCarver, father of
Butch" McCarver, the infidel witness,
was put on the stand this morning, anc
General Peters for the State, keenly
eying the Sheriff, accused him of being
in sympathy with the prisoners and
thwarting every effort of the State to Sc
cure conviction. Ee accnsed him of
suppressing from the Grand Jury his sons
knowledge of facts pertaining to the case,
of providing the accused every facility for
defense by driving them over the country
and going 10 their homes and placing
the prisoners in communication with char
acters whose services might be useful in the
trial. He accused the Sheriff of such con-
duct In the summoning of men for Jury
service as made it impossible for the State
to secure a fair panel to try the case, and
the lawyer concluded by charging directly
that the Sheriff had used his office for the
defendants in cheating the law, and had
connived at his sons treachery and perfidy
in evading his duty as witness.
Counsel then argued the question of the
admissibility of Butch" McCaryer's evil
dence, but Judge Cooper decided to force
him to testify on the ground that he is not
sincere in stating that he is an infidel.
Butch" McCarver was placed on the
stand and the remainder of the day was
consumed by the States efforts to induce
this reluctant witness to tell what he
knows as he told it before the Grand Jury.
McCarver's efforts were directed toward
clearing Richardson from completely in the
crime. He related how, few days before
the killing he had been invited by Smith
and Sisley to take part in the killing.
Smith told him then, he says, that Rich
ardson was employed to make the arrests
and that they wanted McCarver to help
Richardson at that part of the work. 1t
was McCarver's effort to Intimate that
Richardson was to make the arrest in good
faith. McCarver was then TO have gone
over to Smiths residence near Kenville on
the morning before the killing. A body of
men was to get Richardson that night as
he came toward Memphis, overpower him
and kill his captive negroes.
All these facts were extracted from Nc
Carver with great difficulty. and many
statements of a material character that he
made to the Grand Jury he would not re-
peat to-day, stating that he had forgotten
them.
A mass-m Getting has been called to de-
mand the removal Of Sheriff McCarver.

MURDERS TRACED RIGHT HOME.
Wherever Holmes Was Known Some
body With Property Was Put
Out of the Way.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov 21.-The Pitzel
mystery deepens as time wears on. To-
day many theories in regard TO the case
were knocked 10 the head by the announce
ment that B. f. Pltze, the supposed mur-
dered man. was seen in Chicago less than
two weeks ago. President Fouz OF the
Fidelity Life Insurance Company said to-
day: "This morning my Chicago repre-
sentative telegraphed me that a MIR. Bryan,
who is business man in Chicago. had
called on him and said that B. f. PitZel
was in that city less than two weeks ago.
Mr.. Bryan says he has known Pitzel for
many years and had frequent business
transactions with him. and that it is i'm
possible for him to be mistaken. When
they met Bryan did not know Pitzel was
supposed to be dead, and the two greeted
each other cordially and repaired to near
by saloon. where they had a drink to-
gether. Then they separated, and Bryan
says be does not know whether Pitzel was
TO remain in the city or not. However
our men there and the Pinkerton detec-
tives have taken up the clew, and it is my
opinion that PitZel will be produced within
few days"
President FouZ called on Mrs. Pitzel and
her daughter at the Central station to-day
and received valuable information from
the daughter in reference to her father.
The daughter said she remembered while
walking with her father one Sunday in Chi
cago that the latter had said to her, IF
you ever hear through the newspapers or
any other way that / have been found
dead, do not believe it. l will be all
right" Later on, while in Boston, she
read the story of her fathers death in a
newspaper. As soon as she had finished
the story, Holmes said to her:
do you remember what your father
told you the afternoon you were walking
10 Chicago?"
During Mr.. Fouz's interview with the
daughter. Mrs. Pitzel grew excited and
exclaimed: ''They have all deceived me,
even my own daughter"
Mrs. PitZel said she remembered receiv-
ing letter from her daughter Alice in
which she related her experience while
coming East for the purpose of Identify
ing her fathers body. Alice stated that
Howe and Holmes accompanied her and
that they were sociable with each other on
the trip east. This sets at rest the claim
of Howe that he never met Holmes un til
in troduced 10 him by President Fouz on his
arrival in this city.
