THE DISTRICT COURT.
A Short Sitting but Important Business
Disposed of.

The present sitting Of the district court,
though short, has witnessed the disposition
of some very important business. The sit
ting was called for the purpose Of disposing
Of the cases involving the possession Of the
Keystone mine in the Yellow Pine district
in the southern part Of this county These
cases were several in number, mostly for the
enforcement Of liens, one for $50, 900 on the
part of Jones Taylor. the original locator, for
part Of the purchase price against the Key
stone comrHIy, a second for mechanics
liens for 4bor. and a third for material
mems liens for supplies. etc. In June last.
T. c. Williams was appointed receiver Of
the property with authority to improve the
mill in the hope of increasing the output.
This failed on account Of the low grade If
the ore, and the property was plunged
deeper in debt. The creditors, the Key
stone company itself, and all the parties in
terested then joined hands and have agreed
to lease the entire property to the Lincoln
Consolidated mining company Of Denver,
Colo. for period Of two years. In consid-
Grafton Of the lease, the new company agrees
to pay off the debts, amounting in all to
about so, 900 and to erect nearer the mine
than the present mill, new plant, capable
OF working 100 tons day of the porphyry
ore which is found in the mine in large
quantities, hut which, unless worked on
large scale, will not pay. A pumping plant
will be put in to force water from the pres.
ent mill site to the new mill, distance Of
about six miles, and the new works will in
volve an expenditure of about 100000
In disposing of this business, all the pend
ing cases were, by consent, consolidated into
one action, Judgment entered and decree
of sale made The property win thus be
sold, but the sale will be made subject to
the pending lease, and if redeemed within
the six months allowed by law for that pur-
pose, the lease will protect the Lincoln
company for the outlay in the new works,
etc.

Somewhat Disguised

j. X. Clark, the Montana mining man
who went down last week to DeLamar, re.
turned here on Sunday, having spent a
week in and around the liveliest small camp
in the State. He said that while there he
was permitted to roam the hillsides to his
hearts content, and get what information he
could in that way, but that it was a poor
place for mining man to visit, as il there
were large mines there, as reported, the
owners were chary of showing them, and
that such actions tended, in his opinion, to
keep out mining capital.
Mr.. Clark left here on Mondays stage.
going to Desert springs, from which point
he proposed to visit State Line district be.
fore going home. The gentleman's obser.
vations and notes strengthen the belief that
his visit was very much in the interest of
the proposed Los Angeles railroad.

FROM DELAMAR.

New machinery continues to arrive daily
for the DeLamar company's new mill
Benjamin Sanders went to the county
seat ca Monday to attend to business which
he has pending before the district court.
Gene Goodrich has graded lot on Mob
hill, presumably for the erection of print
shop. 1t may be converted to domestic
uses however.
The Sally Ann aud the jefferson claims,
located on the flat above town are being
surveyed for patent. II not valuable for
mineral they will work in fine for town lots.
Several mining properties have changed
hands lately and considerable work is being
done on undeveloped property. The Sally
Ann has opened fine ledge, and from its
location, adjoining the April Fool, it is
liable to turn out another bonanza.
Mr.. j. X. Clark, brother of banker
Clark of Butte, Mont, has been in town
several days; he took good look at the
camp and will return again soon. He de-
parted for State Line district accompanied
by }. c. Lynch, to look over the field there.
MIR. King, gentleman travelling in the
interest of the Knights of Pythias order, ar.
rived in town last Saturday, with the in.
tention of instituting branch of the order
in DeLamsr, there being number of the
order here. He doubtless will have but lit.
tie trouble in opening lodge.
Mr.. j. w. Stevens arrived in town from
the north on Saturday stage. Mr. Stevens
comes here to superintend the construction
of the April Fool mill The gentleman is
spoken of as an expert in his line, and will
push the mill to completion as fast as the
material arrives. The chorus of whistles will
be like new brass band in town.
The royal commands of the young ladies
OF DeLamar that mo more mustaches or
whiskers will be tolerated. seems to have
the desired effect. The BARRIERS are doing
rushing biz, and one would think that all
the young men would. be- benedcts were
about to join the clergy. Well, boys, it's
no use, this is Leap year, and the new
woman ia strictly in the swim, and must be
obeyed.
New faces appear on the streets every
day; the name Of the Great Gold Camp of
Southeastern Nevada, is bringing people
here from the four quarters, but ga word to
the wise is sufficient" Our advice is, that
this is good camp to avoid, unless they
come with the stuff to invest, and then,
'the more the merrier," for there are
plenty of properties here undeveloped that
will surely prove as great as those that are
opened up. Men of mining experience pre-
dict for it great future.
Mr.. Matthew Cullen, of Horn Silver fame,
and DR.. II. j. Faust, arrived in town from
the Death Valley country few days since,
and have been taking in the camp. They
state that they were much surprised at the
camp, the vast improvements of the De.
Lamar company and the growth of the town
was a big surprise to them, and they think,
and express themselves that the Monitor
and Jim Crow mines are the greatest in
America, barring none, and feel sure that
with other properties being opened up, De.
Lamar will rank with the best of them, if
not superior.

Ben. F. Miller came in from Ely last

The scbooIboy and the Insnector.

In an Edinburg school the other day an
inspector, wishing 70 test the knowledge Of
a class 10 fractions, asked one boy whether
ne would rather take sixth or a seventh
part Of an orange if he got his choice. The
boy promptly replied that he would take
the seventh. At this the inspector explained
a length to the class that the boy who
would choose the smaller part, as this boy
had done, because it looked the larger tract
ion was very foolish; but the laugh was on
the other side when the ehirping voice of
another urchin broke in in remonstIance:
'Please, sir, but that boy disna like
oranges" Wv Westminster Grzette,

KITES TO CARRY CAMERA.
Novel Experiment in Aerial Photo
graphy in Boston.

Boston. Aug. 26.-Wi1liam A. Eddy Of
Bayonne, N j, who arrived in this
city last week brought with him TWEEN
ty-two large kites. with which he will
attempt to photograph the city by
means of a camera supported in mid
air through the upward pull of a chain
of tailless kites. They are Of the type
used at Blue Hill observatory, when an
altitude of 7,441 feet was attained by a
meteorograph in this way.
The first attempt was made yesterday
afternoon, the kites being sent up from
the top OF the fremont building, but
the breeze was too light to sustain the
kites in a steady position.
Another attempt viii be made today.
1t is expected during Mr.. Eddy's ex-
periments more than q hundred pic
lures will be taken.

reason why I have suggested to you.
My friends there is the general prin-
ciple that you can use in governing
yourselves. You may be assured in the
long run any policy which brings pros
perity to the great masses of the peO-
pie will be shared by all the people. If
you cannot see just in which particular
way it is going to benefit you in your
business, if you can satisfy yourself
that the public will be benefited by
that measure you can rest assured you
will receive your proportionate share
of it. But challenge you to search in
all the pages of history where the mass
es were benefited by the increase in the
value of a dollar in which debts had to
be paid. CApplause.) My friends our
opponents tell us that silver sentiment
is q disease. If so it will run it's
course like whoOping cough or the
measles. No my friends it is not a
disease, the silver idea is the outgrowth
of a condition and you can not destroy
the sentiment until you have remedied
the cause.
You say you want to stop agitation.
How are you going to stop agitation as
long as you have no fixed policy? What
is the policy Of the Republican party
upon this question, to wait until some
other nation tells US we can act for our
selves. How long will we have to wait?
All my friends if our opponents sue
ceeded in this election how long will it
take for foreign nations to help US re-
store confidence There is no aSSur-
ance. The success of our opponentsin the
campaign, means four years more OF
agitation and then the trial of remedy
Which we ask you. We propose that
this agitation which has lasted for 20
years shall eliminate now in the restor-
alton of gold and silver bimetallism.
You say you do not believe in the ra-
ito OF 16 to 1. I tell you, whether you
believe in that ratio or not, if you be-
lieve in bimetallism you have got to
cast your vote with bimeta1lists and
not monometaIlists.
Now my friends my time is up. I
must leave you and go to greet other
people. simply appeal to you to join
with US if your Judgment sustains that
action, in trying to bring back to the
people monetary system which they
had and would have not but for its be-
ing struck down in the night without
discussion before the American people
When this has been ACCOMPLISHED some
other things viii be possible. Until
this is accomplished no other things
can be accomplished. thank you
kindly" (Applause.)
The crowd which followed Mr.. Bry>
ans escort to the depot rushed through
the strong force which had been form
ed and closed in upon the ear and q
struggle ensued to gain access to the
car. Then the car was invaded and a
dozen blu coats were required to clear
it.
Rockets, the firing Of cannon and a.
vigorous band sped the parting guest.

that they are for silver simply because
it means something new, is an fnnova-

Not less than 5000 people were packed
upon the green, many of them working

Washington. Aug. Ex-senator Stew

letter to Senator Sherman in answer to
the latter's speech in which he charged
that the senator from Nevada in 1874

The letter charges Senator Sherman

that If he (Sherman) had printed the

the inference that was drawn from the
text as printed.
In the quotations from his speech of
