The Inter Mountain Mining Re-
view says that the thouthless and flip
pant Eastern wits who make of the
State of Nevada target for their
darts and arrows, might find profits
in a psrusal of the following extract
from the report of Surveyor-Gensral
Jones: "The Mackay cable and the
postal telegraph were constructed with
money dug out of Nevada mines by .
Nevada citizen. The largest and
costliest building in New York City,
or perhaps in the world, was erected
with funds derived from Nevada en-
terprises by D. o, Mills, and he has
recently duplicated it in San Francisco
The Palace, Baldwin, Grand opera
house., the New California theater,
blocks of stores and warehouses, and
scores of costly residences, have been
built with Nevada money. The Porta
Costa warehouses and docks, the great
newspaper, the Examiner, vineyards,
orchards, stock ranches, wheat fields,
and doubtless many irrigation enter
prises in California have been inaugu-
rated and completed with Nevada
capital"

LIMA.

This is the name of the new town
which has just been organized on tho
Nevada side of State Line District.
1t is but y few hundred feet on the
Nevada side, but affords the best To-
cation for townsite to be found
tbereabouts, as all the mining claims
nearly can be made tributary to it
1t starts off with four houses and will
have several others up in the course of
\ week or ten days. Mail will be re-
ceived via the Newlands postoffice in
Spring Valley, and if present pros
poets hold out petition will shortly
be sent in for the establishment of a
postoffice at Lima direct. Ben Miller,
operating the Milford end of the mail
route, will run special stages to Lima
for the convenience of passengers from
Milford whenever required.

Everybody in the Valley is busy
blowing sewing and doing their spring

We had the pleasure of meeting
Louis Sharp, Jr., of Little Cherry

reports the grass v ell advanced in his
section, and that the cattle kings his
way are gathering their cattle-about

The meadows and alfalfa fields in
the Valley are beginning to look
green.
Brother Horton is rather a lucky
man; he alone has the best potatoes
in the Valley, and he is also the own
err of some cows, which have twin
calves every year. In few years
time, he will count cattle with the
largest "cattle king" in the Valley.

The sheep License Law Declared Con-
stituai0m by the Nuprem. Cnarf.

The sheep License Law Declared Con-
stttusinmal by tho &upretn- Cnarf.
The Supreme Court has recently
passed upon the validity of the act of
the legislature of 1895 usually known
as the "Sheep License Act" Last
fail case was tried in the district
court of Elko county, presided over
by Judge Cheney, in which the con-
sti utionality of the above law was
challenged, and in which the point
was also made that lessee of land
was not such an owner, within the
meaning of the statute, as would
exempt him from payment of the Ii
cense.
The district court held the law to
be constitutional, and that Jesse Of
the requisite number of acres of land,
required by the statute, excused the
lessee from payment of the Incense.
The case was appealed to the supreme
court, and, we are informed that a
decision has been handed down affirm
ing the judgement of the lower court
on all points. The opinion is concur
cd in by all the judges.
Under this act every person engaged
In the business of owning, raising,
grazing, herding or pasturipg sheep,
unless such person is the owner and
holder of land in the state of Nevada
equal to one acre for each two sheep,
Is required to pay license, gradu-
ated in amount according to the num-
Der of sheep SO owned, etc. Failure
TO procure the license is declared to be
. misdemeanor, punishable by fne or
imprisonment.
The law will undoubtedly be en-
forced, and rowing sheep men will be
compelled either to purchase land,
pay license or remove from the
state.
