DE LAMAR DOTS.

The DeLamar company has been at work
in earnest for some time and unless some
thing unexpected happens, will have its
mill in operation before snow flies. At the
mine, development work continues, and If
necessary, 200 tons of ore day can be
mined This branch of the work is under
the immediate charge of Mr.. James Healey,
who understands his busine's thoroughly.

The Carson News of the 9th inst con-
tains an article rejecting on the manner in
which business is conducted in the State
Land Office.
1t is indirectly charged that fees have
been collected by the State Land Register
which have not been paid out by him, and
the suggestion remains that defalcation
exists. The News is strong Republican

Jones, the Silver Party nominee for Cover.
nor. The object therefore of the News
article is at once apparent. The matter
however is not worthy, nor will it receive,
more than passing notice at the hands OF any
person who understands the laws governing
the operation of the State Land Office, or
who may have had business with tina; de-
partment. The fact is that in very many
instances, application are made to the State
Land Office for land, which for the time tsa1g
is not open to entry. The money Is :silE1-
ed by the office, usually at the Ep9al.a-ts
to entry shall be removed. Again n lAay
cases two or more applications are made FOG
the same land, which results in contest,
which must be settled by the courts. The
writer of this has personal knowledge Of
several hundred dollars being held by the
Land Office to the credit of applicants in
Lincoln County alone. Some OF this money
will necessarily be retained yet for some
time.
The difference between the money receiv-
ed in the office and the amount paid out ia
SIS a month for the past three years The
insigni6cance OF the sum is almost a suffi
cent answer to any suggestion of crooked
ness brought il no other reason existed for
disbelieving it.
When land is entered in the State land
Office the Register OF that office is required
to select it also in the U. s. Land Office. II
by reason of a Homestead Entry in the U.
5. office, which frequently is the case or for
any other reason he is unable at the time to
do this, he either returns the money to the
applicant, or retains it under instructions.
In this way the State Land Office holds a
comparatively large sum to the credit of its
patrons, and this is why the records of the
Office show more money to have been receiv.
ed than has been paid out One of the in.
vestigators however, reported that the
money was in the office, subjsct to the
proper order of its owners.
The propensity to 'sling mud" in po.

day of September 1894, as being those
best calculated, in view of the general de-
pressed character of every business and
other enterprise throughout our entire
country, to bring about again season of
general prosperity and gladness to the
whole people, and we most heartily en-
dorse the said platform in its entirety.
We believe the free coinage ofsilver, on
ratio of 16 to | to be one of our rights as
citizens of this country. We believe, that
without this our whole county will con-
tinue to suffer from business depression
and other relative causes and we stand
ready at all times, and in every proper
manner, no matter by what name it may
be known, to assist to success, that party or
organization, which has for ITS object the
restoration of silver to its proper place as
money in this country, and with this OBJ
every man in this commonwealth, we
join hands, without regard TO former poll
teal affiliations, and labor for the common
good.
The demorslizing effects of the lottery
system being so we'll known and being
daily more and more understood, we
pledge our strongest efforts to defeat the
establishment of lottery in this state.
Reforms should first begin at home
Efficient and competent officers in every
department of our county government, in
these times of general depression, and in
view of the Indebtedness under which we
labor, and which sooner or later, must be
paid, are one OF our primest necessities,
and we pledge our best efforts to elect and
to maintain corps of county officers
which shall be at once capable, efficient

Rather Late.

The tinted paper on which the regular
election ballots will be printed, required by
law to besent out by the Secretary of State, to
the various counties will not be shipped
from Carson until tomorrow. With the
time for transmission of the papers and the
printing added, the ballots will not be ready
to send out until after the Goth. of this
month. 1t is therefore something of a
question as to whether the extreme south
west precincts can be reached in season for
election day without sending special mess
engers at great expense.

land Republican nominee for Governor, and
Hon. H. +. Bsrtine Republican nominee for
Congress, addressed the public of Phoebe
last night. The meeting was held in
Thompson's opera house, and fair audi

silver party came in for good share of
censure at the hands of the principal speaker
Mr.. Bartine, likewise the Peoples Party.
Mr. Bartine closed with an exhortation to
the seeding Republicans, to re-enter the
fold, while yet there was time. Mr. Cleve'
land dwet at some length on his efforts to
build a competing line OF railroad across
this state and ended by saying that
whether elected in this campaign or not, the
latch string, as heretofore would continue to
hang outward for all his friends at his home
ranch at Spring Valley. The applause gene
rally bestowed throughout the meeting did
not indicate the Republican sentiment to be
at all strong,
