CHILDREN'S PREMIUMS AT THE
EAR.

Hon. T. N. Vail has written from South
America to the manaasSaent of the coun-
ty fair explaining morn fully his gifts of
$3.50 in premiums to the children. In
his letter he writes as follows:
"All of the premiums given by Speed
well Farms are open to boys and girls
both. And it will not be so much the
particular display made as the condi-
tion under which the work was DONE
One who had every disadvantage in get
ting up his garden, poultry or flowers
will have chance with the rest, provid-
ing he has made the best of his condi-
tions. The whole object is to encourage
those who have little other encourage
ment."
AS $50 is to be distributed in premi-
ums the young folks will do well to pre-
pare for the fair, and by the condition
stated above no one need feel that he or she
cannot compete because they have not
the facilities that some one else has for
raising the plants or poultry. The chill
dren's department next fall promises to
be the most interesting feature of the
whole fair.

dren, members of the Loyal Temperance
League in Grace Methodist Church. 1t

In the evening Mrs. Rice spoke in
the North church, on "The Masters
Call" She very clearly and forcibly set
forth the obligation resting upon every
citizen to heed the Masters call to abol-
sh the liquor traffic. The audience was
deeply interested and pro6ted by the
address.

THE CHRONICLE hopes the subject of a
band stand will not be allowed to drop.
The summer is hurrying past and if we
are to have any evening concerts the
stand should be built at once. Fifty
dollars could easily be raised and this
would be a cheap price for the music
that will be heard.
The contractors at the locks have fin
ished building the large dredge which
has been in process of building for sew
eral days. AS soon as the water gets
low enough the dredge will be put tc
work siuicing the upper entrance to the
canal and when this is finished the ap.
paratus will be taken to the lower end
The dredge is huge affair and will dig
lodge the dirt very rapidly.
The telephone to Dufur, Tygh Valley
and Antelope will be great benefit tc
the country through which it passes anG

it takes four days for an answer to come

be greatly increased and the position o
of this city as the distributing point of

strengthened.

THE CHRONICLE visited the scene of the
big blast this morning. The switch en-
CINE, box car and a fiat car loaded with
ties made up the special train, which
after few minutes run and short stop
at Seuferts cannery reached the place
where the work of improving the road
bed and track is going on. Just around
the bend beyond 3-Mile creek gang of
men are tearing down the hillside and
moving the track some distance from it's
present location. This morning at 8
o'clock blast-one of the biggest that
ever occurred on the road-was fred
and the whole hillside torn from its in
nermost depths. The exact location is
what was known as the half bridge,
where the river washes along perpen-
dicuIar bluff and where only a bridge
was between the cars and the terrible
depth of the river. Nineteen charges of
powder, amounting to over 6O00 pounds,
we're touched off at little after this
morning. All the charges went at once,
being fred by an electric battery.
The result can hardly be described.
The basaItic cliff toppled into the river
and pieces of bridge, rocks and clouds
| of dirt filled the air In every direction.
The smoke was seen from town and the
low rumble heard several miles away.
\ The experimental such it may be
called-proved a great success and the
arailway officials and those who had
charge OF the work feel well satisfied. A
great mass of rock filled the river for a
b distance of over 80 feet from the track
and made sure foundation for the road
bed. The track was torn for several
hundred feet. A large force OF men were
Immediately put to work and by tonight
a temporary track will be finished SO that
trains can pass in safety. This I'M
proyement will be a great benefit to the
roadway and remove cause of worri.
ment that has always been present to

1t is said that Mr.. HornblOwer is will

Mr.. Hornblower was nominated for
Associate Justice of the Supreme Court
two years ago to fill the place made
vacant by the death of Justice Batch
ford. Senator Hill of New York OPP
posed his confirmation by the Senate
and as it is an unwritten law of that
body TO reject any and all nominations
hat are Objectionable to the Senators
from the State from which the nomi-
nation is made, H~Ornblower was not
confirmed. Now it is said that Sena-
tor Hill has withdrawn his opposition
and will make no further objection to
the nomination, hence it is possible
that W. H. Hornblower may reach the
goal of his ambition by being made
Justice Of the Supreme Court Of the
United States.

The MORNING APPEAL.
FACTS FOR THE ENTERPRISE

The Enterprise is now engaged in
belaboring the Silver Party of Nevada
in a series Of articles abusive of every
body and everything connected with
the present administration. 1t asserts
that me elected by the Silver party
are composed of a sort Of frOth float
ing on the political wave, and insists
that not n OF them could have been
elected to the office Of Constable else
The man who wrote the above is a
newcomer in the county and simply
don't know what be is talking about.
Let us look over the list.
John E Jones was twice elected
Surveyor General 10y the Republicans,
before the Silver party placed him in
the gub~ernatorial chair. Charles La
Grave, State Controller, was twice
elected State Senator by the county of
Humboldt. William Westerfield, State
Treasurer, has been sent three times
from Lyon county as a State Senator.
Eugene Howell, Secretary Of State,
was sent by the people Of White Pine
to represent them in the lower house.
A. G. Pratt has held many offices of
trust and responsibility. Mr.. Cutting,
Superintendent of Public Instruction.
came before the people with a record
on which no man could lay Il hand.
Mr.. Joseph Mccarthy was for years
connected with ope of the leading pa
pers Of the State and was born and
raised in Nevada. He came from a
family who helped to lay the founda-
tons Of this commonwealth.
Let US also look at the men the State
officers selected for important offices ::
Mr.. Henderson, warden Of the Peni-
Tertiary, has made the best warden
the Prison ever had a humane man
with fine executive ability and every
way qualified and efficient. Mr.. Beebe
as Superintendent of the Home was
placed in a peculiar position. Even
his friends said it would be hard to do
as we'll as the former incumbent did .
Every one now admits that the Home
is run more efficiently and economi-
cally than ever, and the most carping
critic a find no opening for COM
plant. 1t is the same with DR.. Berg
STEMS management of the Asylum.
Re has inaugurated many reforms
and reduced expenses.
Expenses have been reduced at the
Prison, the Home and the ASYLUM,
The State expenses have also been re-
duced and the State run in the inter-
est of the taxpayers. The session Of
'92-93 made material reductions in
State expenses, which the last Legis-
lature followed up.
The figures show these facts and we
would advise the Enterprise man, who
is a new conner here, to read the
cOmptroller's report. He might not
make so many wild assertions if he
were posted.
The men who formed the Silver
party and who carried its flag to vic
tory, and who We're honored with of
flee, were men who had previously re-
ceived the substantial endorsement of
the old parties in Nevada and are the
men who have titled the soil, develop
ed the mines and had their shoulders
to the wheels Of progress in this State
men who cannot be maligned by any
scribbler who acts as a polecat stink
ing for the hire of the goldbugs of
New York.
