IN OUR OWN STATE.
Vermont Railroads.


This years report of the Vermont
Railr Dad commissioners has an unusu-
al historical value, beginning as it does
with an exhaustive resume of the in
ception and growth of railroad con-
struction since December Is, 1915, when
the first rail was laid on Col. Nuts
premises at White River Junction.
There are now % railroads, wholly or
in part in the state, operating 9S1.S6
miles of road, including 1909 miles of
9uble track.
The p; st year has been only fairly
prosperous, the board saying: GA great
falling off in both freight and passen-
ger traffic, with a corresponding de-
crease of gross receipts, has demanded
and justified, as a matter of business
necessity, limited curtailment of ex-
penses, which the general public has
appeared to understand and recognize
b.y a patient submit sion to more linn
tied train service and an abated zeal for
the immediate enforcement of better
station facilities and conveniences as
are their right to exact in the normal
period of prosperity in the railway bust
ness of the state.'
The total number of casualties for the
year ending June 80, 1894, was: Passen-
gers, killed, 8; injured, 80; employees,
killed, 35; injured, so; all Others, killed,
lS; injured, %.
The total number of passengers car
red upon all the railroads wholly or
partly within the state for the year 1893
was Is, 1861 ,S73, an increase over 1892 of
,123,073. The total passenger revenue
for 1898 was 81 ,237 1927. The number
of tons of freight carried in 1898 is 49,
756,987. The total freight revenue for
the same is S13, 1893, 50l.2l an increase
over 1892 of 81, 2l5, 02S.64. The average
receipts per ton per mile of haul is for
the year 1892 3.046 cents, and for 1898
is 3.2457 cents, while the average esti-
mated cost for carrying the same per
ton per mile for 1892 is 2.742 cents, and
for 1893 is 2.496i cents.
The interchangeable mileage book
question has been dropped since the
publication of the adverse decision of
the Massachusetts Supreme Court on
the constitutionality of the Massachu-
sets law. The board among its recon-
mendations for new legislation urges
that railroad companies be authorized
to take land lands adjoining their roads
near highway grade crossings for the
purpose of removing obstacles danger
Gus to travel and Instructions to view
of approaching trains by the highway
travellers approaching The same. The
resolution ador ted at the meeting in
1891 of all the New England Railroad
Commissioners advising the compila-
ton and printing under state auspices
of all the steam railroad laws, with a
view to securing uniformity in railroad
legislation, is urged once more on the
favorable notice of the law-making
body.

OF the 30S,51l citizens who registered
in New York city, only 271, 796 voted
Tuesday. There were several reasons
for this. The cumbersome methods of
voting, the number of constitutional
amendments, and the questions of rapid
transit and the greater New York, to-
gether with the lack of provisions at
the polling places for the increase of the
number of citizens who desired to vote,
We're the principal causes.

w. a. Donnelly, our present
Sheriff, announces himself in this
issue as candidate for Sheriff and
Assessor, subject to the decision of
the Silver Party Convention. Bill
has been Sheriff of this county for
four years, nearly, and has made
an able and efficient officer He
would no doubt fill the office again,
with the duties of Assessor added,
as well as heretofore, and we be-
speak for him fair consideration at

At the Republican primaries in
Yerington on the 18th there were
but 20 votes polled.
At the Silver primaries at the
same place on the 18th there were
80 votes polled.
The contest between the Brann
and Melarkey delegates for Sheriff
and Assessor was quite spirited,
and the Brann delegates won by a
vote of AZ to AZ.
1t is believed that the county del
egates from Yerington favor nomi-
nations in the convention.
Mason Valley people are making
a strong pull for the office OF Sher-
iff and Assessor, and it il under
stood that they will ask for no other
place on the ticket, except POSSIBLY

The 1rims aries.

The primary election held We'd
nesday was quite a lively affair in
Dayton. There were two tickets in
the field, one for J. r. Shaw for
State Treasurer, and the other for
W. J. Westerfield for the same pos
ition. There were 116 votes polled
and the Shaw ticket was defeated
by vote of so to 36. There was
but one county ticket in the field,
and it is pledged against making
nominations in the County Con-
vention. Following are the State
and County delegates from this pre-
cinct.

Our neighbor Fairbanks of the
Dayton TINES, is a candidate for
State Printer, and asks the nomina-
ton of the Silver convention. In
our Judgment he is the best quail
fed man for the position, whose
name has as yet been mentioned in
connection with the same.-Mds0n
Valley Tidings.
The above, coming from the
source that it does, is considered
quite complimentary. We have
thought some of being candidate
for State Printer, but have solicited
no delegate on the subject. If the
Lyon County delegation should con-
slider that Lyon is entitled to a
place on the State Silver Ticket,
and we think she is, being the first
county in the State to get into line
on the silver fight, then We would
ask them to consider our case. We
have no demands to make, and if
the Convention should think we
could not hold up our end of the
fight if nominated, we will cheer
fully abide by its decision.

From letter received from Sill :
yer Star Mining District we take
the following interesting items.
The mining expert from Denver,
who has been visiting the District
for the past two weeks, left last
Tuesday.
Work is progressing rapidly on
the Douglass Mill, and it will be in
operation within the next three
weeks.
Douglass & Co, have leased a
number of their mines to prospect
ors, who are buisiIy engaged in ex-
tracing ore from the same.
The "Hardscrabble" mine owned
by Ed. Brown, and the Bounce
owned by Jim Lothrop and others,
looks better than ever, ore is being
extracted in large quantities from
these mines.

Coed News for the Ninety Four.

Word comes from the east that
there will soon be money enough
raised to begin the extensive oper-
atisns calculated upon by the above
named company. 1t is calculated
that $4,000 will have to be raised
to start with. There is no doubt
that the company means strict bus
mess; and there is big money in the
proposition if it be carried out ac-
cording to the plans and specifica-
tons drawn up for the work. 1t
will mean considerable help for the
town of Dayton.

The case of Quilic; & Co., vs..
VIM. Kean, was tried in the Justice
Court here this week before a jury.
Last May Mr.. Kean shipped some
potatoes to Kansas City for Quilici
and when they arrived there they
were found to be in a very poor
condition. Quilici sued to recover
$21S, the value of the potatoes, and
Mr.. Kean contested because he
thought he could show that the po-
tatoes were damaged before they
left here. He failed to do this and
the jury found for Quilici & Co.
The case will be appealed.

Unmaak Their Villainy.

The appeal believes that it is high
time that the men who are directing
the abuse and defamation that is
being launched at the leading silver
men of Nevada, be called up with
round turn, their records published,
their crimes and villainies nnmask-
ed, and their masquerading gar
ments of assumed responsibility
stripped from them, that the public
may know just the sort of men who
have for years past been directing
politics in this State.
If the cattle who have been hang
ing about the doors of the peniten-
tiary for years trying to break in,
want a personal campaign they can
easily be acknowledgement.
