COMMISSIONERS PROCEEDINGS.
Road and Street Troubles at
OeLamar.

Mondays meeting Of the Board Of County
Commissioners embraced bat two matters
OF interest outside OF the ordinary routine
work. members Cook and Syphus being
present, Conway being unable to attend.
G 5. Sawyer appeared before the Board,
and 10 behalf Of Samuel Davis Of San Fran
CISCO. demanded that the tax of As cents
provided by the law of 1878, for the pay
ment Of interest due upon bonds Of this
county, be levied and collected for the
present year. The applicant claims that
he holds registered interest coupons which
he wants paid, together with accrued in
terest on his bonds, amounting in all to
some 5000. This interest tax has not
been levied since 1887. All the bonds are
supposed to be converted into judgments,
and those that may not be, are outlawed,
hence for those reasons the Board refused to
make the levy demanded.
A petition signed by over fifty citizens
Of DeLamar was presented setting out that
the entrance Of DeLamar Avenue to Main
st. in that town had been blocked by the
erection Of building and asking to have
the obstruction removed. Relative to the
same matter letter was filed from 7. +.
Edwards stating that the ground covered
by the DeLamar Avenue where it entered
Main st. was his property; that he had
built on a portion Of it and proposed to hold
the whole but was willing to dispose of it
fof road purposes, if compensated at the
rate prevailing for surrounding property.
Ia consequence, the matter went over to
enable the Commissioners to obtain further
information.
From the County Auditors statement,
the following transfers of funds in the
county treasury were ordered: A list of
claims against the county, which appears in
another column, was allowed, together with
the regular monthly report of the various
county officers.
No other business then appearing the
Board adjourned until the first Monday in
March.

Henry Kahn arrived Tuesday night on
one of his regular trips and had drum
mer's experience in landing. He started
flom Salt Lake in palace car and landed
on an 'Injun" poney." He says they let a
fellow into this section by easy stages f"
He left Salt Lake in palace coach; at Juab
he changed to a rattletrap day car; at Mil
ford he found a jerk water stage, with
blackboard for change from Desert
to Panaca. Here he hired a cart, started
for Phoebe, made half the distance, and
broke down. While specializing on his
next move, along came an Indian brave on
pony. Henry Immediately struck up a
trade, and mounting, with a sample case
swung on each side of the "critter, rode
triumphantly to town with the cold north
wind circulating through his whiskers.
Mrs II. j. Goodrich has been confined
to bed all the past week, seriously i'll from
a complication of disorders.

LAS VEGAS VALLEY.
Steady Increase of Land Entries There
BORING for Artesian Water
A Promising Section.

--Boring for Artesian Water
A Promising Section.
II the interest Manifested in certain sec.
tons Of the southern part Of eur county ior
the past two years continues two years
longer, the result will more than likely be
the existence Of half dozen thrifty villages
or townsites. This is the conclusion arrived
at by many who have noted the numerous
entries Of land made recently in the Las
Vegas and the Muddy valleys at points fur
Their west. The main incentive to this &C
tivity is, Of course, the proposed railroad
construction across that section.
With the building OF the present Nevada
Southern TO MARVEL two years ago, inquir-
lee for land became numerous, and the rail
road company taking the matter up, issued
prospectus Of its road and the sections OF
country through which it would pass. The
mineral deposits were not overlooked, but
the bulk Of the report dealt largely with the
nature and extent Of the soil and the beauti.
full climate. Neither were exaggerated To
any degree, and the result has been that
along the proposed route over one hundred
thousand acres OF land have been entered,
mostly in small subdivisions and by parties
who expect personally to occupy them.
The Las Vegas valley. situated in the
southeasterly part Of this county, and about
| twenty-five miles east OF Charleston Peak is
the center Of attraction, and the reportof land
entries for the county, running from May
last to January Let, 1896, show an undated
demand. More than 200 separate entries
have been made, embracing "a, l26 acres,
and by far the largest part of it s located in
the Vegas.
New settlers who have come in from
North Dakota are boring for artesan water
with good prospects of success; il they sue
coed not an acre of that fertile section will
be open to entry year hence.
The altitude is some 1000 feet lower than
that of Phoebe, and the climate is similar to
that Of southern California. All the semi.
tropical fruits grown in southern California
thrive in the Vegas, and some kinds, such
as figs, etc. are said to mature about ten
days earlier than in California. At any rate
Nevada secured the award for the first figs
Of the season at both the Columbian expo
sition and the Midwinter fair.

Death of George Liston.

The citizens of DeLamar were greatly
shocked when the news was circulated
that MIR. George Liston, son of Mr.. Albert
Liston, of Meadow Valley Wash and Cliff
Springs. died suddenly. Mr.. Liston was
attacked with malignant case of measles.
DIR, Mayo was attending him and gave
orders to his attendants that he should be

were disregarded; Mr.. Liston was moved
to another residence; in moving him he

Obituary.

On Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock,
Louis Klein breathed his last. For several
days before his death he was but partly
conscious and his end was peaceful and
calm.
On the l4th of December last he fell
while crossing Main st. and sustained
fracture of his thigh. This healed in due
time but brain trouble was constantly pres
ent during his illness. This continued and
he, steadily declining, seemed finally to
give up the struggle for recovery.
Louie was one of the old residents here;
was engaged, in the early days, in the brew
cry business and latterly in the saloon bus
mess. He had many warm friends and
was man of true pioneer ways.
The remains will be buried tomorrow
morning at 1890 o'clock under the auspices
of the Odd Fellows Order of which he was
a member.
Jacob Klein, brother of deceased, q
resident of Carson, arrived this evening.

The above is the standing of the pupils Of
the Grammar department for the two weeks
ending Jan. 3lth In the first column is
found the pupils average in department, the
second punctuality and the third school
work. In grading 100 means relative per-
lection, 90 means extra, 80 very good, So
good, so ordinary, 70 poor and 60 very poor.
This method is used believing thereby the

To Madamus the Commissioners.

The case is entitled Samuel Davis vs..
Lincoln County. The complaint sets out
that he holds s22S0 of unpaid registered
bond coupons of this county. That the in
terest due on the bonds he holds, besides
the above amount, reaches the sum of 81
40, and these amounts he wants paid,

Keystone Property.

The reports current some months ago to
the effect that the Keystone property was
likely to resume operations under new man.
agement, seems to have been well founded.
II is reported now that the Colorado comp.
pany which was organized to handle the
property, is about to take possession, and
will erect works capable OF treating 100
tons Of the low grade gold ore uncovered in
the mine, per day. 1t will doubtless be q

the organizers and promoters OF
the big union expect to be able to
accomplish in the near future. AT
the time at which Mr.. Debs and N.Y.
self and other leaders of the "A. X.
u. were sentenced, it was openly
boosted that the organization was
dead, and that it would never again
be power in organized labor" said
Mr.. Kelliher, "but those who made
the boasts did not understand with
whom they had to deal. They did
not know that there were thousands
of people throughout the length
and breadth of this land who had
sworn to succeed at any sacrifice;
who were determined to carry this
organization to success, to place 1T
where if would in a measure con-
troll the wages paid it's members,
if the struggle lasted for 10 years
or 20. can say truthfully that the
A. r. u. never was in better con-
dition than it is at the present day;
that more work has been done in
the past sixty days than ever before
in the same length of time, and that
we have made remarkable gains
throughout the Eastern and South
ern states. AS Mr.. Debs stated in a
letter which I received from him
yesterday, it is matter not OF
months, but of days, before we will
be in position to take our stand
publicly and to assume the posi-
ton which we propose to main
tain" We expect within a few
weeks to have our delegates from
Duluth union again with you, and
also to have delegates again in
every trades assembly throughout
the country" Mr.. Kelliher urged
the necessity of united opposition
to the entertainments of capital, ex-
pressing the assurance that the
onlv salvation for the country in
the great crisis which he was as
s11red was near at hand lies in the
sense of right and equal justice
which throbs in the hearts Of work
ingmen of the nation. He urged
upon the assembly the need of eau
ton in every move, of allowing no
personal motives to urge the or
ganization to any action not sane
toned by absolute right and JUS
tice, and of guarding against petty
enmities in it's own ranks.
In his denunciation of Judge
Woods, who sentenced the A. X. y.
leaders, he was most severe, de-
nouncing him as the corrupt tool
of CORPORATIONS, placed upon the
bench by corporate power, and
whose every promotion had been a
bride. Mr.. Kelliher's address was
received with the warmest enthu-
siasm, At the mention of Eugene
y. Debs' name the assembly fairly
went wild with applause.
Atthe conclusion of Mr.. Kelliher's
address a rising vote of thanks was
rendered him, which was a small
appreciation of the Assemb1y's re-
spect for him:
Regular order of business being
resumed. T. w. Nichols invited all
members of the body to attend a

will turn over to the strikers the
money they have collected.
The committee taking names of
patrons of the Lyceum have long
list of the same which they will
have published in few days.
Vim. Randall of the Garment
Workers committee reported that
Kastriner & Neuman at West Du-
luth will have the union label on
all goods which they purchase in
St. Paul. Delegate McEwen be-
lieved that this firm has the label
on their clothing, because Duluth
is such a we'll organized town
that they are unable to sell their
clothing without it. He had been
informed that although the manu-
facturer has scab shop he places
the label on all goods sold to this
firm.
The committee to assist the tailors
made a pleasing report, saying that
the trouble existing between the
tailors union and Nelson & Swan
son, had been settled satisfactorily
to all concerned.
The club rooms committee has
secured two rooms on 3rd ave.
west, in the Dodge building, that
are suitable quarters for the union
club. During the summer the rent
will be only $11 per month, inc1ud.
ing light, heat and the services OF
a ianitor. The advisability of
securing these rooms was left to
the board of directors.
Chairman Meagher of the dance
committee says the third annual
ball will be success in every way.
They have secured the Pavilion for
Nav LIST, the rent for that date being
$40 and the Street Railway COM
pany have agreed to refund $40 If
500 people are in attendance. A
well-known thoroughly reliable
caterer has promised to serve
supper. A great many tickets have
been sold, and grand time is
assured to all who attend.
T. w. Nichols, who has been &C.
lively engaged in the prosecution
of Mana ger Ball, stated that owing
to lack of evidence on the part OF
witnesses, who could not remember
very we'll as to dates, etc., the con-
viction of Mr.. Ball was not accom-
plished and as second charge
cannot be brought against an 1nd1-
vidual an attempt to get another
trial would be useless, and would
cost hundreds of dollars. and PROB
ably not bring about conviction
On motion of Mrs. Akin the regu-
lar order of business was sus-
pended and the privilege of the
floor was extended to Sylvester
Kelliher, general secretary, OF the
American Railway union, who was
incarcerated in the Woodstock jail
with Eugene V. Debs.

Quent address on the labor move
ment as it is today and what 1T Will
