CHURCHILL COUNTY.
Out Of Debt and Money in It's Treasury.

Hon. j. NJ. Sanford, one OF first set
tiers in Churchill county, and who has
been elected to various positions from
law maker to custodian of the public
funds, is in Reno. In a conversation
with an old timer who served in the
Legislature with him, he said:
Twenty years ago an attempt was
made to partition Churchill for partisan
reasons. The bill passed the House by
a majority of one, and the Senate by a
larger majority. Governor Bradley was
absent from the State on account of
sickness, and Acting Governor Adams
vetoed the bill. That saved Churchill
county from dismemberment, and today
it is on as sound basis as any in the
State. 1t does not owe dollar and has
money in the treasury. The people are
not getting rich, but many of them are
i'll good circumstances and nearly all are
making living. They practice econo-
my in county and domestic affairs, and
when business reylves Churchill will
hold its own with the other counties. >

say 1T is unfair to condemn a law with

caused by the time it gets put of its

NO HYPNOTIC CLINIC.
Scheme of Advance Physicians
Killed by Conservative Doctors.

CHICAGO, Feb. ia local paper says:
Chicago's hypnotic clinic has died a-Sornin.
1t was to nave begun to-day at the Illinois
Medical College and promised to furnish
the greatest sensation which the profess
sions Of medicine and surgery in Chicago
have known for years. But the great public
attention it attracted. even before its CON-
mencement, was too much for the conserva-
tive physicians identified with the college,
and the management of the institution, III
consequence recently decided not to allow
the clinic to begin. This was TO have
been the first public hypnotic clinic in the
United States conducted by a medical
school. 1t was to have been free TO the
public and would have taken an equal foot
ing with the other free clinics run by the
Illinois Medical School. AS an adJunct TO the
practice OF medicine, hypnotism has been
used for some time abroad. In france,
Germany, Austria, Holland and Sweden
special hospitals and institutions have been
established which are devoted exclusively
TO the treatment Of disease by hypnotic
suggestion. In the United States the only
public clinic where hypnotism has been
used was the dental clinic of the University
OF Minnesota. which lasted only a couple
of months before the opposition of the
members of the medical faculty caused its
withdrawal

GOOD FIELD FOR MISSIONS.
T~hirty-Seven Million Japs Are still
WOrshipers of Idols.

BOSTON, Feb. 1.-THE American Board
of Missions of the Congregations Church
made public this morning a special report
on Japan and Japanese missions. The mis-
sionaries of the board, it is said, milk
some others, have never been pastors of
churches, nor have they to any great ex-
tent acted as such even temporarily. Many
chapels where no church organization eX-
lists are conducted by some -self-supporting
native church, or else by such a church and
mission cooperating. Some chapels. how
ever, have been conducted as purely mis-
sionary enterprises. One unique feature or
the work has been the theater meetings,
which were much in favor when things for
eign were popular; but the big preach
as IL was called, has, for the most part,
fallen into disuse. Whatever of success
the mission has had has been due in no
small degree to the women in IT. They
nave done a great deal of work for the
education of girls; have trained most eff1-
cient women to work among women; but
there has been added a regular training
school for Bible women, where candidates
study half the year, and go out to service
the other months. The women have ex-
erted great influence in Japanese families.
The mission has worked energetically on
educational lines. The japanese churches
are not able to evangelize the great mid lie
and lower classes with anything like the
expedition that they themselves desire. 1t
Is estimated that 81, 100000 of the population
of AZ, OOO, 600 are still worshipers of idols.

Indiscrimfnatinx Criticism.

Another Indianapolis minister has taken a
tilt at the ne~wspapers-not the Sunday pa
pers tais time, but newspapers in general.
Evidently there is a tendency to 'get even"
with the press, which has freely exercised its
privilege Of advising and criticising the min
istry when occasion required. Turn about is
fair play, and there can be no reasonable OBJ
lection to reciprocal attentions of this kind.
If the gentlemen of the pulpit want to tell
newspaper editors how to edit they have the
right to do so. and the closer acquaintance
they have with their subject the more is
their advice likely to be considered. How
ever, when they ~criticise the entire press
for faults of which only a few papers are
guilty they not only do injustice to the
others, but lessen the Importance of their
own comments and stand convicted of the
error OF inaccuracy which they charge upon
editors and reporters. Rev. Mr.. Christensen
is quite right in condemning the sensational
ism which rakes the slums for crimes of a
revolving kind and gives them the greatest
prominence and which manufactures news
of a startling sort and excites the passing
wonder of the public thereby. He is also
right in denouncing the papers which print
improper advertisements, which deliberately
distort facts to suit a certain political bias,
and which trade in petty personal gossip.
But ne should be fair enough to say that
these are not the sins of the majority of
newspapers. There is in each large city
one or more papers of the character he de-
scribes. and, as a rule, it must be said that
they are in demand by the public and have
large calculations. This ~pecuniary profit
makes it a greater credit to the other pa
pers that they do not seek TO emulate the
sensationalism. 1t is only the few that
knowingly publish exaggerated or false tales
of crime. or foist faxed" interviews or hap
penings upon the public; it is the exceptional
paper that prints indecent advertisements.
and. il may be remarked, the editor of such
paper goes to jail for his act. AS for biased
reports, Ii Is human nature to see events as
are human. Although the rule In every we'll
regulated newspaper office calls for ac-
curacy in every detail. 1t is hardly a matter
Of surprise If Republican and Democratic
reporters make widely differing m
of the attendance at meetings of their re-
s~pectiye political parties. 1t is just possible
that Mr.. Christensen himself would be con-
WINGED that in a doctrinal controversy be-
tween representatives of his church and the
Presbyterians his side had the best OF the
argument, and would write 1t down so. while
the opponents would as honestly do the
same. As for partisan bias, it is by no
means found at it's worst in papers frankly
owning allegiance to party, the so-called in
dependent press being far the greatest Of
Tenders in this respect.

On st. Valentines day the Prohibition
party of Nebraska threw itself into the
arms of the Populists. who now call
themselves the Bimetallic League. and
adopted the following platform:
The money of the country should be
issued by the general government only
through government banks of loan and de-
post directly to the people upon adequate
security and at a uniform rate of interest.
1t should be full legal tender for the pay
ment OF all debts, public and private, with
out exception or former contract stipula-
ton. We favor a money composed of legal
tender treasury notes based on the credit
OF the Nation and the full, free and I'M
limited coinage of gold and silver at a
ratio of 10 to !, in which the bonded in
debtedness OF the country shall be paid.
This is an out-and-out fiat money
loaning platform with a limited annex
Of the free coinage of silver. 1t was
adopted by a few men who have per-
sistently maintained a third party to pro-
mote temperance by law. Their fall in
Nebraska should be a warning to others.

The course pursued by the trainers
and defenders of the present tariff law
suggests the inquiry, when does a law
their time to fall. human beings pass
from childhood through boyhood end
girlhood to adult years, and all animals
have their time of maturing. When
does a tariff law mature?
The present law took effect Aug. q,
1894. It's trainers claimed it would af-
ford immediate relief by reducing the
burdens of taxation. and, as soon as
business adjusted itself to the new condi-
tons, would furnish ample revenue. The
law has been in force seventeen months.
and in fourteen of those months the
revenues have failed to meet the ex-
penditures. The smallest monthly deficit
$50 and the largest was S13,573. 500. The
total deficit during the seventeen months
of it's operation is s74.1 64. 296. Ever since
the law went into effect its friends have
been predicting good results from 1t as
soon as it got fairly in operation, and
have been asking a suspension of public
judgment in regard to 1T. They have
said 1t is a new act, only in it's infancy
yet; wait till 1t has become a full grown
law and had a fair trial.
The friends Of the last tariff law be-
fore this one. commonly called the Nc
Kinley law. an act for protection and
revenue, did not ask for any suspension
of public Judgment in regard to 1t. That
law matured very early. In fact. 1T was
born mature and was fully grown from
the beginning. No monthly deficit ever
occurred under it. During the first sew
cnteen months Of Its operation Ii yielded
$512. 5S1. 1913 of revenue. against 1853, 003. 100
under the present law At the end of
seventeen months OF the Mckinley law
the surplus of revenues over expendi-
lures was $26. 016. 1873. while during seven
teen months of the present law the ex-
penditures have exceeded the revenues
s74. 164. 296. The friends OF the Mckinley
law never had to plead the baby act.
Ever since the present law was passed
the Secretary of the Treasury has been
trying to strengthen and popularize 1t
by his estimates and predictions. In the
language of the stock market he has
been trying to bull" the law. On Dec.
3. 1894. after 1t had been in operation
three months, he estimated that the re-
ceipts under 1t during the present fiscal
year. ending next June 80, would be
$500. 900. 900. AS regular as the monthly
report showed a deficit he predicted an
increase just ahead. The law was new
yet and would work better soon. After
II had been in operation fifteen months,
namely. on Dec. 10. 1895. he sent another
estimate to Congress admitting that the

event covering a period OF fifty years. which
became public by the question involving the
disposition of the dead mans property.
1t now appears that Harry Howard left a
will. Inthat will, rs most intimate friends
say, ne beqneathed sl his real and personal
property 10 the w1man he had loved. and

Meats: Composition and Cooking" 1t is
illustrated, and, judging from the following
ample, must contain some wonderful in

The principal difference between roasting

meat is cooked.
The smaller the cut to be roasted the
hotter should be the fire.
A steak exposed TO an intense heat for
ten minutes is thoroughly cooked.

markets contain some portions not suitable
