MANS INGENUITY PREVAILS.

For many years it has been mat
ter of grave speculation as to the pos
sibility of utilizing the immense water
power afforded by the Niaga Falls.
This scheme, which has resisted the
ghosts and bafied the attempts of all
experts, scientists and theorists, who
have attempted it previous to the
Niagara Falls Paper company has,
through the persistancy and untiring
energy of the company, been accom-
plished. To this firm, says the Salt
Lake Tribune "belongs the distinc-
ton of to day developing 5000 horse
power, in manner, never before &C
complished in hydraulics. "
The women of New York State are
preparing to make determined fight
at the constitutional convention to be
held in that State in May, in favor
of an amendment, in which they de-
mand that the constitution of the
State shall be SO amended as to Sc
cure to them call the rights" privileges
and immunities civil and political,
that, accourding to the principles of
our Government, belong to every
citizen of republic. "They will
endeavor to have the word "male"
struck from the constitution, as a
qualification for voters.

A Berlin dispatch of January Goth,
states; Prince Bismark and the Emper-
or of the fatherland have shaken
hands across the bloody chasm, kiss
ed and made up. Does this indicate
that the iron Chancellor is again to
mount to the topmost pinnacle of
power and influence in European pol
itics! This is improbable, as Bismarck's
great age percludes the probability of
his undertaking such an arduous task.
The Emperor probably considers that
the Princes days are numbered, and
desires to smoothe over the past am
mostly while it is yet time.

SALUTATORY.

the WHITE PINE News, annouced, that
if negotiations, which at that time
were pending would be completed,
that the issue of last week, would be
the last, and parting act in the capas-
ity of Editor and Publisher, of him,
who has, for nearly twenty year been
actively engaged in successful and
prosperous career of journalistic la
Dor.
The reasons given by Mr.. Davis
in his 'valedictory, for retiring from
active work in this county are appar-
ent to all, who are acquainted with
the man who has been associated with
the NEWS, from its incipiency, and
through whose influence and skilfull
management, the "NEws' to-day
stands equal to any weekly paper in
Nevada. Having thus piloted the
Enterprise from its commencement
though long period of successful
management to its present prosperous
condition, he steps down and out,
confident he has done his duty, and
won the approval Of his patrons.
. Whatever business Mr.. Davis, may
choose to follow in the future, we
sincerely trust, that the protecting
arm of kind providence may in the
future, as it has done in the past, guide
and direct his footsteps.
With regard to the future manage
ment of NEWS, we have, not without
diffldence, undertaken the responsible
lily, of sustaining it's reputation, and
like our predecessor, appropriate to
its benefit any and all improvements
that the future may suggest.
We are here in the interest of the
people of White Pine County, your
interests are our interests. We are
here forlthe purpose of assisting in
the development of the resources of
White Pine County, and of improve
ment all along the line. James G..
Blaine, one of Americas Greatest
Statesmen, succeeded in improving
the stagnated condition of National
trade through the fundamentally of
reciprocity with other Nations. We
believe that the principle of recipro-
city is applicable not only to National
betterment, but to the improvement
of county and individual interests as
well. No mans interests are entirely
seperate and apart from the rest of
mankind; each is dependent to great
er or lesser extent on the prosperity
of his neighor; and on this community
of interest rest the foundation of the
practicability and economy of the
reciprocity doctrine. In union there
is strength. Let each man put his
shoulder to the great wheel of pro-
gress and general prosperity is bound
to result.
This doctrine of mutual obligation
is as applicable to our political interests
as to those of commercial character,
and being somewhat acquainted with
the interests of White Pine County,
and the mining Region of the West,
We have not the temerity to under
take the enforcement of political
dogmas of untried merit, and ques-
tionable jrepute. But we do not wish
TO be understood as casting reflection,
in any particular, upon any political
party, obtaining in this county or
State.
We are not here for the purpose of
disseminating political bunkum or the
advocation of any measures repugnant

A dispatch from Omaha states that
Judge Dundy has ordered general
reduction of wages on the entire I'm

SPARKS FROM sCHELLBOURNE.

EDITOR NEws:-Owing to the pres
ent depression in financial circles, min
ing matters are at standstill in this
as in other camps; though if any move
favorable to silver be made, work will
probably be resumed with the return
of better weather.
In the mean time the ranchers are
busy at winter work, horse breaking,
fence building and the like.
Cattle are reported as looking well,
and comparatively few are being fed.
Schellbourne boasts freak of nature
in the form of a tailless calf whose
hind legs are so much longer than the
forelegs as to give it most remarkable
appearance.
The snow is by no means heavy here
but the stages are unable to run on
time, owing to delays about Spruce
Mountain, where the snow has fallen
to a considerable depth.
Trustees Bennett and Holland of
the Butte District expect to open
school this week with Miss Della Nc
Lauglin as Teacher.
Manager Isaac Jennings of the Ruby
Hill property passed through to Au-
rum on Fridays last. He reports
times harder in Salt Lake than were
ever known before.
The residents of Schellbourne and
vicinity wish all deserved prosperity
to the News under the new manage
ment, and bid good bye, and wish
fortune to the departing Editor,
OBSERVATIONS OF A DRUMMER.
EDITOR NEws:-I dot down a few
thoughts on my return after many
years absence. I may say, to begin
with, l am a drummer, and look at
affairs from business stand point
And, as on my former visits, always
found my sales and receipts were sat
isfactory to my firm, l was anxious
to meet my oldtime friends and part
ners if any wereleft. So leaving Wells
on Lampmans one horse stage, a soil
tary passenger my conversation was
confined to the well informed jehu and
I learned to my sorrow what, I might
anticipate.
At Sprucemont, found the genial
Jack Hamilton was almost sole poss-
essor of what was once an active camp,
with fine prospects and brilliant an
ticipations, now, also dead.
Suppertime found us at the last
relay of horses, where Mrs. Pat Green
furnished us substantial repast, so
on arriving at Cherry Greek quickly
noticed Mrs. Ryan's Hotel, where ma
lures sweet notes soon had me wrap
ped in her arms (not Mrs. Ryan's).
Up bright and early, was very
DESTROYS to see old Cherry which so
often filled by pocket and order

The closin hour of the last Borough
Council meeng was of such character
as to reminbne of labor organization
meeting. Twas devoted to discussion
of what is "A andard by which employees
of the boroul should be paid 1t arose
over a reque that the Two men employed
as watchers n the Fowler's Run lands
claimed for ne water works be paid the
same wages aceiyed by the watchers on
the other de OF the mountain. The
seven Demoatic mem bers stood for the
increase anohe six Citizen members OPP
posed It, CuCilman Hand started the
ball by sayir he did not understand the
matter whenhe borough fixed the salar-
les at the fist meeting of March. lie
said he was ut in favor OF the borough
Offering any ian $l.25 a day to work for
it and he moed that the motion liking
the salaries bre-considered.
The Citizenmembers took the ground
that the marty members knew very
well at the the the salaries were fixed
that two of ne watchmen had been re-
ceiving Sl.50 ach per day and two Sl.25
each per day, nd intimated that the de
sire for the inrease was due to something
more than hilanthropy. The motion
to reconsider tas finally carried and then
Mr.. Hand moed that the salaries remain
the same as lst year with the exception
of the two wtchmen at FOwler's Run,
and that theyOe paid 81 80 per day instead
of S125, Mr. James amended that an
order be draw in favor of the previous
watchmen forhe difference between Sl.25
and Sl.50. Hesaid that all men should
be treated alEe and if a mistake had
been made by he borough in paying the
others only S.25 per day the mistake
should be corrected
Chairman MGuire didn't look at the
matter in that light and ruled the amend
ment out of oIler, Mr.. James retorting
that he eXpectd the ruling. Mr.. Straughn
moved an amedment to hay the question
on the table until the next meeting and
then a vigorOu discussion over the rates
of wages folloTed. Comparisons of two
men engaged n the same kind of work
in the mines aid one receiving Sl.25 pei
day while the other received Sl5O were
made and metwith the answer that the
case was not aparallel one; that the Sl.5C
watchmen weIe paid more tlan the others
as they had to Walk to the other side Of tie
mountain. Sne one said to this that
that distance q travel makes no difference
in the wages O. miners and there was nc
reason why it hOdld have a bearing OF
the wages of tie watchmen. A score ol
more of side Issues were dragged into tht
discussion by yay of comparison and fol
Il time the melting quite lost the charac
terlstics of a council assembly Nc
streets, or alleys, dead dogs or cats, or il
anything in thGordinary line of q Council

But Mr.. Hand finally carried his point
with the aiC of the five Democrat,
members on tie floor and the one in tn
chair and nov the watchmen at Fowler
Run get Sl.51 Ter day.

TRIPLE LYNCHING.

A special dispatch, of yesterday,
from McGehee, Ark, gives the fol-
lowing account of triple lynching
1T that place:
The parties who foully murdered
H. G. Patton on the night of goth
inst, were caught and confessed in
detail at the inquest today. The
Sheriff started to jail with them
when a mob of something over
300 men, both white and black,
overpowered the Sheriff and hung
them on the ground where Patton
was murdered. Their bodies were
riddled with bullets Their names
are Luke Washington, Richard
Washington and Henry G. Robin
son. The murder of Patton is un-
provoked and premeditated, The
lynching party came some twenty
miles and lay in the woods near
Pattons store for half a day wait
ing for darkness. The murder was
purely for money and they were
traced by spending money with
blood omit.

Pink the Color of Wrong Doing.

Prof. Gates has made the discov-
cry that bad feeling and wickedness
create harmful chemical products
in the body, while goodness and
benevolence create products which
are healthful. There is no doubt
about it, he says, because it can be
detected in the-well, let us say the
dew on the brow and elsewhere.
The only chance of escape from
suspicion is for evil-doers not to per-
spire. "Of all the chemical pro-
ducts of emotions that of guilty is
the worst" If a small quantity of
well, the dew of the brow of a
person suffering from feeling of this
kind be placed in glass bowl and
exposed to contract with selenic
acid it will turn pink. None of the
other poisions similarly generated
exhibit the same phenomenon.
Pink would therefore appear to be
the characteristic color of wrong
doing"
