Subscription So per Year.

The VTginian in it's last issue says:
Among other hyperbolical things we
find the following in the virile
columns of the Ely Miner" and then
goes on to copy some of our mining
notes. The editor of the Virginian
evidently knows more about the mines
Of Ely than does, the MINER There
is nothing hyperbolical about. the
fact that the Chandler is rushing
shipments; nor that the steam shovel
will soon clean up No. 3 stock pile;
nor that No. shaft is down 100 feet.
We will admit that our columns are
yirile. We are also of the impression
that the editor of the Virginian in
trying to- sandwich a lot Of long
words into his columns, struck onto
the wrong word, the definition of
which he was not aware.

SOME parts of South Dakota have
not been blessed with good crops, as
would appear from the press dis
patches. One farmer, it is reported,
purchased from the county 100
bushels of wheat for SOL. When he
harvested and marketed his crop this
fall he had but $40. This he turned
over to the county officials who de-
manded the remaining S12. The
farmer couldn't raise the money. and
was arrested for larceny. The justice
who heard the case took compassion
upon him, and, while he. held the
farmer to grand jury, he released him
on his own recognizance.

Watch Competitions.

Very few people know that there are.
in connection with the Geneva watch
trade, competitions involving very large
sums Of money. geodly proportion of
which finds its way into England.
A certain number of watchmakers at
Geneva nominate certain dealers in
England who shall! hold competition
watches made by the former. and the
names of such dealers are agreed to by
the whole of the said makers. Prizes
ranging from $500 downward are given
to the makers whose particular watches
shall keep the best time and remain in
the finest condition during l2 months.
The English dealers who hold the
watches during the 10 months have to
keep daily record in regard to the loss
or gain Of time evidenced by their
charges. and they are of course in abso.
lutte honor bound to keep a correct one
and not to tamper with the watches be.
yond winding them. No given maker e
watch in the competition bears any
name or distinctive mark other than pc
culiarities of construction by which the
name Of the maker can be identified by
the holder. The watches are of the
usual kind manufactured for trading
purposes and not mere exhibition"
watches, and the holder Of each prize
winner receives one.half Of the award.

lego IL Involved.

lego IL Involved.
SAN FRANCISCO, June S-Judge McKis-
sick, special counsel Tor the government,
made his argument in the suit against
the Leland Stanford estate in the United
States circuit conrt. He cndeavored to
demonstrate that the debt which was Gre.
ated under tho act Of congress OF 1862 was
merely a statute of limitation and not q
condition, as tho Stanford counsel con-
tended. H0 claimed that each stock
holder Is liable for the debts Of the cor.
pOration. He argued that the railroad
had entered into contract with the gov.
ernmcnt, and as result certain liabili.
ties were created. The railroad had nc.
cepted the land grants and agreed to pay
the bonds on maturity.
The government had accepted the rail.
road pledge that it>would maintain the
road in good condition. transport the
mails for certain fixed sums, and pay into
the treasury OF the United States Ger.
tain percentage Of the dividends In order
to redeem the bonds when they matured.
Counsel argued that congress had i'm.
posed n personal liability. The govern
ment was not dealing with an inanimats
body, like n corporation, but with the
Stockholders themselves.
This Is the case in which the Leland
Stanford university Is involved. II the
government wins the university will have
to DO closed for want OF funds to keep 1t
running.
