sufficient guarantee against sectarian in

All property is taxed to maintain the

all creeds and denominations are satisf-

SCHOOL ELECTION.

The people of Nevada, since the or
ganization of the Territory, have dis
countenanced all attempts to introduce
politics into the public schools. As the
old method of electing school trustees at
the general election had tendency to
mix the schools with politics the Lpgis-
lature, in conformity with the general
desire, passed an act which provides for
the election of school trustees at time
separate and distinct from all other cleo
tions. The time for this election is ap-
preaching. 1t will take place on the
fourth Monday in May and two trustees
are to be elected in this district.
1t is greatly to be desired that politics
will not be introduced in this shool cleo
tion. There are men of ell parties who
would make excellent school trustees,
not because they are partisans, but for
the reason that they take much in
terest in school affairs. Neither should
sectarianism be permitted to enter into
the school election. The Constitution
of the State, Article N, Section 9, pro-
yides that "No sectarian instruction
shall be impaired or tolerated in any

PATRONIzE LOCAL INDUSTRIES.

"Patronze local industries and keep
your money at home" are some of the
methods suggested by the Ogden Stand
ard for building up the State. The most
striking illustration of the paralyzing
effect of a condition which induces the
residents of State to spend their money
abroad is found in the State OF Nevada.
Her mines, says the Standard, have pro-
duced over 5000, 100000 in gold and sill
yer; her ranges have supplied the Paci-
tic Coast with beef, and materially added
to the wool product of the nation; her
marshes have yielded great quantities of
borax, salt and soda, yet the State is
dependent upon the outside world for
everything her people use and all that
her people wear. The millions from her
mines, ranges and marshes have been
used to beautify other homes and other
lands and the greater part of the State is
still desert.
Within the boundaries of Nevada, says
the Standard, are 20,0Oo,0OO acres of
land suitable for irrigation and 3d.
100000 acres afford the best grazing land
in the world; the Humboldt river flows
300 miles through the central part of
this vast domain and is contiguous to
millions of acres OF fertile soil but need
ing reclamation to become highly fructi-
ferrous; the Truckee river flows more
waters than the streams of Utah; the
Sierras are clothed in dense forest of
stately pines yet with all this, her pop
ulation, has never exceeded $1,000 and is
now only $4,000, including Chinese and
Indians. Had one-tenth of the wealth
produced been retained at home, which
home industries could have accomplish
ed, the assessed value of the State would
not now be less than $40, 900, 900 nor the
population less than that of Salt Lake
City.
What the Standard says OF Nevada is
too true. 1t is a fact, deplorable, but
nevertheless true, that the millions pro-
duced by the Nevada mines have been
invested outside the State. The. fashion
has been for those who made money in
mining, cattle-raisng, wool-growing or
any other industry in Nevada to take
that money oat OF the State for invest
ment. Only one wealthy man came to
Nevada to help develop its resources and
he incurred the deadly enmity of a
coteria of politicians by doing so. While
the State produces millions of pounds OF
wool and thousands of hides annually,
there is not woolen factory nor tan
merry in Nevada, and this too is the face
of the fact that there is general COM
plant of the high transportation charges
for wool, hides and other commodities
out of the State and for manufactured
products into the State.
Our people, or at least considerable
number of them, seem to prefer impor
ted articles. They will buy salt with
the Liverpool or some foreign brand up
on it, in preference to the home product,
though the latter is chemically pure.
They buy flour made in California,
though the home product is equally as
good, and they export live hogs to San
Francisco and import bacon and hams
from st. Louis or Chicago, and yet COM
plain of exorbitant transportation rates.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC RATES
Are Still Occupying the United States
Circuit Court
The System Is Not Worth tile Amount OF
the Government tLicn-Damaged
by Dilatory Acton

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 17.-In the railroad
injunction suit, on trial in the United States
circuit court, the reading of testimony
taken by the congressional commission of
1883 was resumed today.
The proceedings began with the reading
of the evidence of the late A. A. Cohen,
formerly connected with the railroad COM
pany. Most of his testimony related.to his
knowledge of the difficulties under which
the builders of the overland road labored
in carrying forward their project.
When asked by the commission if it
would not be wise for the government to
foreclose it's mortgages he replied that the
Central Pacific system was not worth the
amount of the mortgages held by the gov
ernment. Evidence given before the COM
mission by w. Ii. Mills of the railroad land
department was also read, much of this re-
lating to tina grants made to the road and
the difficulty encountered by the company
in endeavCring to realize on them. In
his evidence he took occasion to deny that
the railroad managers had purposely de-
layed taking out patents and perfecting
their title to much of the land included in
the grants in order to avoid paying taxes
upon it. Mr.. Mills explained that the COM
pany had had continual ground for COM
plant against the government because of
the dilatoriness of its agents in forwarding
the work of giving title to the railroad
lands, the result Of the delay so caused
meaning great loss to the company.
The pecuniary loss to the company
caused by the dilatoriness of the govern
ment agents would have paid many times
over the taxes which could have been lev
led upon the lands up to the time of the
final issuing OF the patents.

Blackblrded Gilbert Islanders VIII Be Re.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1.-The bark
Helen w. Almy has been chartered to con-
vey back to their island home the Gilbert
islanders who were taken to Central
America to work on the coffee plantations.
The blackbirding scheme was planned by
Captain Ferguson, who chartered the brig
Tahiti to go to the Gilbert islands and OBJ
tain cargo of laborers for the Central
American plantations. The brig was
driven into Drake's bay. near San Fran
cisco, and there was some talk of intefer-
ence 10 prevent the alleged shaving ex-
petition. The Tahiti got away, but never
reached her destination. She was found
floating bottom up off the coast of Mexico,
and the cargo of slaves were drowned.
Ferguson then chartered the steamer
Montserrat and about 400 natives were Sc
cured. The agreement was that they
should be returned to their island at the
end of three years. The time is now up
and the Almy will now take back the 2 lS
survivors of the 400 who went to Central
America.

A Rum0red Railroad Deal

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 17.-Tt was learned hero
today that at o'clock this afternoon deed
was placed on record at San Bernardino
conveying to Mayor Carlson of this city, as
trustee, the entire Nevada Southern rail-
road. The rad is forty miles long, rum
ming from Blake station, just west of the
Needles, on the Atlantic and Pacific, and
northward to Marvel, on direct line to-
ward Salt Lake. The deed was signed by
Isaac E. Blake, president of the Nevada
Southern company, at New York, on the
9th inst There are a number of runors
regarding the transfer. The one most fa-
yored is that the Southern Pacific is behind
the deal and will extend its system by this
line from Utah to San Diego.

MOkE CROOKEDNESS

Expert Investigation Shows Heavy Stealing
From the Grangers' Bank
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 17.-Dscoveries of
crookedness in the old management of the
Grangers' bank continue to be made.
The new directors had believed that H.
800 was the total amount of the defalca-
ton of William Witland. the ex-teller who
fed from this city short time ago and has
not yet been found.
They we're startled today, however, when
told by the expert accountant who is work.
ing upon the books that he had found an
other defalcation of Witland, amounting
to $4,000.
T. w. Longee, a director of the bank,
confirmed the news of this discovery this
afternoon, and stated that it would not
surprise him if still larger sums we're found
to have been made away with by the ex-
teller.
The total amount of WitIand's stealines
thus far known is about $4,000. His
whereabouts is still unknown. The Grang-
ers' bank is making no effort to find him,
and it is probable that some of those con-
nected with the old management do not
care to have him turn up, as he might shed
too much light on affairs.
1t is said that the Fidelity and Casualty
company, which was on Witland's bond
for 81 O,OOO, is aware of his present loca-
ton, and is trying to effect settlement
with the defauting teller.

SPRECKELS' AMBITION
Is to Occupy a Seat In the United Stat,
Senate

Is to Occupy a Seat In the United States
Senate
SACRAMENTO, Jan. 17.-There is strong
feeling on the part of certain leading men
in this community that there is purpose
in making Sacramento the battle-ground
upon which the new primary election law
is to be tested. These men also claim
that Major w. A. Gett, who is taking the
whole initiative matter, has more interest
in the contest than the mere fact that q
failure on the part of the supervisors to
carry out certain provisions Of this election
law might lose him his vote.
In the course of an extended political
article this evening, the Bee asserts that
Lawyer Gett is acting in the interest of
John d. Spreckels of San Francisco. 1t
says that Spreckels is laying the wires to
select legislature which will elect him
United States senator. The application of
the primary election law to Sacramento
would insure an enormous expense, fully
equal to that incurred by a general elec-
ton.
In the meantime, says the Bee, John D.
Spreckels is using Sacramento county to
determine the constitutionality and appli-
cation of the law of primary elections so
that he may be sure of his ground before
he fairly opens the battle.
The herald., 1896-01-18

Before the expiration of this period the
statute would bar the right of recovery by
the government and the benefits of artipi-
pated favorable decisions of the courts
would be lost so far as they might deter
mine the character and disposition of
grants similar to those indirectly involved
in pending cases.
It will be readily seen that if this act of
limitation is to remain on tine statute
books, the portion of the adjustment act
referred to will be rendered null. Indeed
there would be but little use in continuing
the adjustment OF many of the land grants.
inssmuch as ascertained rights of the
United States, or of settlers could not be
enforced by law.
Legislation establishing limitations
against the right of the government to sue
is an innovation not entirely consistent
with the general history of the rights of the
government, for it has uniformly been
held that time did not bar the sovereign
power in asserting O right.
The early adJudications of the depart
ment constructed the grants with degree
of liberality toward the grantee, which
later decisions OF the court and OF the de-
partment have not sustained. 1t seems
clear that the further progress of the adj
iustment will develop facts and trans
actions in connection with these land
grants, which ought to be the subject of
legal examination and scrutiny before they
are allowed to become final and conclusive.
The government should not be prevented
from going into the courts to right wrongs
perpetrated by its agents or any other par
ties, and by which much of the public
domain may be diverted from the people.
In these circumstances it seems to me
that the act of 1891 should be SO amended
as not to apply to suits brought to recover
title to lands certified or patented on ac-
count of railroad or other grants. And I
especially urge upon congress speedy
action to the end suggested, SO that adj
without the interposition of a bar, through
lack of time, against the right of recovery
by the government in proper cases.
