Yesterday letter was received from
Will Langille, who left on the first

Langille made the trip very success
fully, although he says that the trip is
no easy one by any means. He pic
lures the trip in nearly the same Ian
guage that has appeared in the papers
saying that "About 400 yards above
our camp there was bad place where
every morning there would be dozen
horses down one after another, keeping
ours standing with Uhrir packs on,

Inexperienced packers would over
packs on good. and it was fall down in
the rocks or mire in the mud; empty

Hon. Thos. Robinson came over from
Newark Valley on Monday. Mr.. Robinson
says the cattlemen OF White Pine are mp
in arms against the sheepmen, who are
providing the cattle ont Of the valleys and
into the hills. Mr.. Robinson says there
are now 100000 sheep ranging in that
county from Idaho and Eiko county. The
taxes In Elko are 81 80. while in White
Pine they are s. go. and to take advantage
OF the cheaper rate the sheepmen claim q
home ranch in Elko. which. under the
present law. exempts them from taxation
In any OF the other counties on their
sheep. The stockmen complain that 1t 10
bad enough to have their stock crowded
from their usual range, but what rsnkles
and makes the iron enter deep into the
heart is the fact that these sheep range In
that county six months Of the year with
out contributing one cent Of taxes. Dur
ing the balance OF the year they range in
EIko county, where they shear and pay
their taxes. Mr.. Robinson says White
Pines representatives will endeavcr TO
have the Home Ranch" law changed 81

waIlace's Fereman Played Him for
Tenderfooe.
The Msriposa, California. Gazette Of
recent date, has the following:
O. O. Wallace, who IL interested in the
Rollins mine as s~weetwater. created quite
. stir In that mining camp recently. For
over . year Wallace 4 Go. have been
driving . tunnel 70 tap the vein and had
expected TO be into the vein some time
since. Their foreman, one W. J. Quick.
reported regularly the progress, and on
the first Of the present month. according
to his report, the tunnel was In 565 feet,
but no vein had Jet been encountered.
When Mr.. Wallace vent mp 10 the mine
he went with the intention Of purchasing
the property from the Rsvel Brothers. the
owners, and he took with him Surveyor
A. O. Robinson, in order 70 make surveys
and measurements. and had him measure
the tunnel. Robinson and Quick meas
ured the tunnel and Il did not tally with
the report, and in order 10 be certain they
measured . second time. Quick holding
one end Of the tape, . man accompanying
him. This time . different result was OBJ
tanned and Surveyor Robinson suspecting
foul work on the part Of Quick made .
third measurement. Wallace accompany
ing Quick, and IN accurate measurement
Of the tunnel was then made showing
that the entire length Of the tunnel was
only five hundred and i've and slx-tsnths
feet, while according 10 Quick's report on
the first Of the month the tunnel was In
five hundred and sixty-nve feet, and they
had worked twenty days since the first
and were still sixty feet short. Quick has
been steadily falsifying his reports and
when the measurement was being made he
was showing the tape up his sleeve and
trying to subsssntiate his report. 30
shrewd was he In doing this that be came
near decsiving those with him. who not
suspecting anything wrong ct the time
we're not on the watch for any deception.
When the truth Of the situation became
apparent, Mr.. Wallace lost NO time in
making q change Of foreman. and settled
up all accounts except with Mr.. Quick.
whom he discharged and put T. p. Bis.
land in a. foreman.
Mr.. Wallace has no reflection 70 cast on
my Of the men working In the tunnel ex-
cept Quick whom he says IL . rascal. The
other men are ell good men. Wallace had
not decided what course 10 pursue re-
specting Quick, but ON his arrival in San
Francisco he will consult with his asso-
ciates and determine whether to prosecute
him or pay him and let him go.

ated by that oleaginous manipulator,

Charley Allen Of Eureka. who. as . prom.
User. has no rival among the unveracious
legislators that now breathe Carson's

hog all the offices for themselves. Washoe
aud Lyon were in the scheme from the
start, those counties being guided BY
that profound and brilliant statesman,
Frank Norcross and . schemer from

the plotters proceeded to the Capitol

could only muster IA Of . total Of q,
which gave them . majority Of q .
This was sufficient for their purpose,
however, and the program went through
merrily until Charley Greene. Assembly.

ton and moved that they end the farce
at once and elect their slate by acclama-
ton. This kindled . mark Of shame,
even in the breast Of Adamantine Allen,
and . few Of the programmes boIted the
slate and voted for Fred Ritter and
