Captain DeLamar, who is largely
interested in mining properties in Lin
coin county, and who has returned
from New York, was interviewed by
a reporter in that city recently. Speak
ing about business matters, he said:
Concerning the railroad situation, an
improvement in the price of silver will
have to take place before much build
ing will be undertaken. [ had an In
terview with George Gould while in
New York recently, and that gentle
man expressed himself of the same
opinion. The Goulds and the Union
Pacific people, I think are anxious to
establish connections with the coast,
but they are not apt to make any I'M
mediate moves in that direction. lode

The snow melting in the hills is
forming young rivers which come
tearing down the mountains, creating
sad havoc with the roads in the can
yons, especially those roads over
which freight teams and heavy loads
pass. This condition of things will
not last long, however.

Two bills were passed during the
session of the Legislature just closed,
concerning White Pine county officers.
The first, Senate substitute for Assem-
bly, bill No. 1872, relating to the offices
of Clerk and Recorder, and the AS
SCISSOR and Treasurer, and takes effect
in 1897. It repeats the Act passed
four years ago, consolidating the Off
ces of Clerk and Recorder, thus MAX
ing them two separate Offices, and ne
cessitating the election of a Recorder
at the next election; it also reduces
the salary of the Assessor and Treasur-
er 5000 year. The second bill re-
lates to the salary of the District At
torney, but it makes no changes leav-

Attorney from $1,000 year to $500
and fees; it seems to have been dis
puted however, that fees were allowed
by the Act of 1898, and the bill pass
ed at the last session removes the
doubt and makes the salary of the.
District ATTORNEY $500 a year and fees.
There are few places on this terres-
trial globe that can boast of heartier
crop of wholesome, facinating, pre-
possessing and charmingly agreeable
bachelors, than in Ely. They exist
here in all sizes, and all ages, they
flourish here from the ingenious and
dexterous liliputian, to the imposing
