EXECUTIVE CIIEMENCY ABUSE.

no Oxford Ledger complains of the
high handed and reckless exercise of ex-
rcutive clemency by the Governor in par
GoninG Henry Harris, who it seems made
> most unmitigated attack with intent to
HI |. on Mr.. Frank Lands, of Oxford.
The Ledger says:
The jury that tried Harris was COM
posed Of members of THE different parties,
and Solicitor Bynum argued ably and
earnestly that he was guilty according
to the bill of Indictment and Harris was
convicted, sentenced to the penitentiary
fr two years by Judge McIver. He
appealed to the Supreme court, the judges
of which court are non-partisan, and
they affirmed the sentence of the court
below By the time this decision was
handed down to the utter establishment
of our law abiding citizens the governor
issued his pardon. Was it all prearranged
before hand that Harris should not en-
ter the penitentiaryY
Governor Russell, in his inaugural adj
dress was particularly severe ON lynch
law, and we also are opposed
to the exercise of that kind
of violence for the suppression
of crime, but the indiscreet use of
pardoning power by the governor, how
much he and others may deprecate lynch
than check it, What becomes of the
great cry that goes up when crime is
committed, 'Iet the law take its course"
if the governor will not even allow GRIM
inal to enter the prison walls?"

ANOTHER HEAVY TAX ON THE
FARMER.

To the Editor:-The Dingley bill is a
veritabe Pandora's Box of evils. 1t
now transpires that section in this bill
imposes a heavy tax on the Importation
of burlap bagging. This will add 212
cents to the cost of every fertilizer and
grain bag used, and also increase heavily
the cost of cotton bagging.
A tax of many hundreds of dollars will
thus be levied on this community alone.
The farming interests of the country are
already loaded beyond endurance with
taxes. More really cannot be borne.
The press of the State should call upon
every Congressman elected by farmers
votes no matter what their politics are,
to strenuously oppose this additional tax.
The farmers are becoming thoroughly
aroused on these things, and will no
longer vote for Congressman who do not
oppose them to the utmost.

o'clock in the morning the gin OF MAJ.
r. J. Wooten, together with several bales
of cotton belonging to Mr.. Nooten ana
patrons of the gin, were consumed by
fire. The Major was satisfied at the
time that it was the work of an incen-
Diary. and that Henry and Riley Wall
had Il guilty knowledge of the affair.
Shortly after this, Mr.. J. w. McNair's

They soon became great friends, and
Henry DID Lot hesitate to take him into

also confessed that he and Riley Wall

made 1t was not very long before he
followed up his evil practices by skipping

Russell then issued the necessary requisi-

brought him here this afternoon and car
ried him on to jail. Henry's crime is a
serious one. and II is hoped that he will
be placed where gin houses, smoke houses
and stores will be out Of his reach.

An Extensive Business For Sale

On account of various matters in
which he is interested demanding so
much of his attention, R. H. Cowles
finds hat he cannot devote the proper
amount of time to his Grocery Business
at Wadsworth and hereby announces
he will sell the building at Wadsworth
in which is located his General Mer-
chandise Store, the lot on which it
stands, a large fire-proof cellar, the
stock OF goods on hand, the good will,
etc. The goods are all fresh, nothing
shop worn. The business is a prosper
GUS one and the only reason for selling
is to enable Mr.. Cowles to give all of his
time to other industries in which he is
engaged. Wadsworth is the best bust
ness town in Nevada today and this
opening offers a splendid opportunity
for some good man to locate in Wads-
worth. Call on R. H. Cowles at his
store.

"In the ripening of the summer grain
there is the element of the sunstroke
but the world can better afford to take
the risks of sunstroke than it can to be
without grain. The Conkling curl that
hangs down on my forehead may raise
the jealousy of my partner Glenn who
has no curl at all, but it is lar better to
have Ciem's jealousy than to have
seven maidens SORROW as they would if
the curl was moved. Even the baby
cries for it. There is nothing good in
in this world but somebody has a kick
at it. The diamond on my shirt bosom
saves another bunch of electric lights in
this nouea; yet a man who was dazzled
by its effulgent rays and poured a cham
payne cocktail down the outside of his
throat wanted me to set up another free
of charge. 70 every good and useful thing
there is an objection: Jack EIDE chews
tobacco; the cook leaves feathers on the
chickens; a night out is followed by a
day in; church and baseball games
come on the same day when you have a
religious wife; | have n sweetheart
and five rivals; every plum pudding has
one bellyache, and | could go on like
the rush to Alaska were it necessary to
impress this upon your editorial mind"
said Lee Smith as in the fervor of his
inspiration he put salts in the sweet
toddy OF a travelling pugilist who threw
the bartender through a yentilator in
the roof. He has not spun any more
wisdom since. He ought to have it set
to music.

There is probably more demand for
young men who are practical and scien-
tifc miners than in any other profession
Nevada county boys of this charactt r
are scattering all over the world under
favorable contracts for salary and ex-
penses, and the demand is increasing
every year. No intelligent miner who
understands his business need be idle
very long. But mine owners are more
exacting than formerly. They will give
preference to men who understand civil
and mining engineering. They expect
the superintendent to do his wi sur
veying, mapping and blocking out.
Realizing this fact many young men
who are doing regular labor are nightly
studying subjects that will fit them for
any branch of the business. Such young
men are going through a course of in
struction by correspondence with east
ern schools that make a speciality Of
that line of work. The young fellow
with a fair education who will put in
two or three years OF evening work while
learning the practical part OF the bust
ness will at the end OF the time be com
petent, and will not lack engagements,
1t is the workers that win.-Nevada
