story from the gold fields of western Aus
tralia which would be hardly credited if it
had not been borne out by the arrest of sew
eral OF the ringleaders in the most terrible
tragedy that has yet been enacted in the

had scarcely enough food and water to
keep them alive. They were brought back
raging with fever and placed in the Cool
gardie hospital already overcrowded with
dying miners. The fate of these desperate
men did not deter eight new arrivals from
forming syndicate, who, with heavy packs
OF provisions, water. and rifles, started
from Ninety-nine Point, the extreme limit
of Coolgardie. to prospect in the interior.
They started December of last year and as
nothing had been heard of them it was
supposed they had met death. Daniel
Robert son of one member of the syndi-
cate returned from his camp, 40 miles from
Coo.gardie, Jan. II, and confessed to the
police that after discovering a mountain
of gold the party returning to camp found
that band of blacks had stolen all their
provisions. The syndicate pursued the
blacks to their village and butchered the
entire encampment, shooting the men and
Draining the women and children. The
murderers have been arrested. The solid hill
of quartz which the syndicate found is
seventy feet high, $50 feet wide at the base
and fifteen at the summit, full of gold. The
rush is setting in to the scene of the find.

Gil has approved proposals to raise the price
of sugar which were submitted by the
porter of the committee, who said that the

was due to overproduction, and that 1T could
not be dealt with by international arrange

this they must raise the excise duties on

More Land. for settlers.

WASHINGTON, March lin accordance
with an act passed by the last Congress-
the Secretary of the Navy has turned over
to the Interior Department a number OF
small reservations lying on the coasts of
Alabama and Mississippi, which were set
apart early in the century for the purpose
OF maintaining an adequate supply of live
oak and pine timber for the building of
naval vessels. Since the abandonment of
wooden navel ships there has been no de-
IL there had been the reservations could
not have met 1T, for they had ue9n long
denuded of their valuable timber by squat
ters, SO the favy Department recommended
that the lands be transferred to the IN
terror Department in order that they might
be disposed of under the law to private
persons. The extent of the reservations In
Mississippi is about 1900 acres, while in
also similar reservations in Florida, but as
1t has been reported to the department
that they still contain valuable timber, the
Secretary of the Navy has not yet con-

GOOD ROADS.

The toll road up the Carson Valley
known as C~radlebaughs has ceased to
exist as a toll road, having been pur-
chased by the county and thrown Open
TO the public.
The next move should be to make
the road better, as we'll as all other
roads which lead into Carson. It
would pay Ormsby County to assist
in this matter, as good roads leading
TO the city mean more trade for it.
If we could have good roads it
would add more to the value Of farm
property than all the other public i'm
provements put together, ever have.
1t would reduce the cost of getting
crops to market one-half, and in the
saving of feed that is now fed to idle
horses, it would amount to a sum that
staggers the imagination.
Every day that a team remains idle
it is something for which no return
will ever be received. If we had good
roads the teams could he used on the
farm when the ground is in condition
and the crops could be hauled to
market at such time as farm work
could not be prosecuted.
With good roads, larger loads could
be hauled and time saved in this wav.
1t has been computed that the average
cost Of getting crops from the farm to
the railroad station is greater than
putting it from the railroad station
to h seaboard, and if we count the
cost at ordinary wages, we will see
that this is not far wrong.
