Senator John P. Jones is quoted as
saying that he would vote for as high
tariff bill as the Republicans could or
would introduce in congress We pre-
sumo that no one doubts that he will
do so, and do it cheerfully. We would
respectfully suggest, however, that
while he is voting to increase the tax
upon sugar, clothing, tea, coffee, hard
ware, and everything else that his New
ada constituents have to buy, that he
make little effort to raise the price of
one article which many of them have
to sell. In the Dingley bill hides are
on the free list. This was in Difference
to the demands of Eastern boot and
shoe trusts, who want cheap leather.
A Republican member in the house
said that duty on hides proportion
ate with that on upon wool, would in
crease the price of cattle one dollar per
head all over the country. An addi-
tional value of one dollar upon every
bovine brute in Nevada would help out
our stockmen wonderfully. So, try
hard to get move on, Senator, and
see if Nevada can't secure little bit of
rebate upon the many thousands which
she will have to contribute to illustrate
the beauties of this most admirable
doctrine protection -Winnemucca

Of the prospector, Sam Davis says in
the Chataquan "To the brave and
rugged prospector, with his cheap out
fit of mining tools, his empty stomach,
and his hopeful heart, is due the rapid
development of the West. At the tap
of his pick che doors of natures treas
ure vaults open; but their wealth is not
for him The stock sharks, the spec
ulators and the promoters rob him of
his interests, and the snow is no sooner
sinking from the slopes of the foothills
than the poor fellow is vending his
course into new territory. He appears
in the rocky Businesses of the noun
tains, and, with no companions but his
pick and frying pan, is lost to memory.
Suddenly comes the news of another
discovery, and city rises like pillar
of flame in the wilderness. Lucky
Bill has struck it rich,' gambled away
his pile and pushed on. The bones of
hundreds of the advance couriers of
civilization blaze the path of progress
in the West, or moulder in forgotten
graves, while in their wake are teeming
cities they have founded and the cease
less murmur of the money seeking
multitude whose fortunes they have
builded."

Representative Gum has made new
departure. He sent a notice which has
been published in every paper in the
state, giving the number of copies of
the various reports from the agricultu-
raj department at his disposal. The
idea was to get the reports into the
hands of people who would find them
of some value, and seems to be good

most of them will be exhausted and
the applications will still be coming in
by the hundreds, and the Captain will

makes mills but sets them up if his

to this he can give invaluable pointers
to the inexperienced as to the proper
development of mines, the best mode
of working ores and all other informa-

English and French papers bring
news of depression in mining invest

Paris is described as stale, fiat and un-
profitable. This is the natural effect
of the taking mining stock boom which

TUESDAY, July o.
A reasonable Inference from tho volume OF
trading in securities and tho nuctuation In
prices to-day 10 that tho moro important In
forests that have recently been active in tho
stock market are in the main temporarily In
different TO the course OF prices. Comparatively
small dealings. narrow fluctuations. and slightly
lower prices might naturally be expected after o
double holiday. particularly as the suspension
OF business was preceded, early last week, by
unusual activity and o fairly buoyant market.
Tho speculative community. however, seemed
inclined to-day to ignore these circumstances
and TO attribute the unsatisfactory chnrao-
ter of tho market to the strike Of the bitumt-
nous coal miners and possible delay as to
final action upon the pending Tariff bill. It
10 to be noted that the bulk Of tho sell
ing was by room traders and professional
operators, and that at no timo was there any
pressure to dispose Of stocks. At the close OF
business Offers to lend stocks were rather In CT
cess of the demand. but as manipulation in that
department Of the Exchange Is quite as fragrant
as in actual trading, too much Importance should
not be attached to that indication Of an excessive
or weak long account.
The news Of the day was not of q depressing
nature. The most trustworthy advicos regard
ing tho strike Of the bituminous coal miners are
of O lack of organization and Of unity Of action.
The chances arc that tho strike would never havo
occurred had the mine operators In the socalod
pittsbure district maintained the diHerential
scale of wages that has been aereod upon time
and again between tho mine owners in that dis
trict and those in Ohio. 1t appears that tho Ohio
operators arc willing To pay full wages provided
their Eastorn competitors will adhere to tho
diderential warranted by tho different condt.
lions of mining that prevail in the two districts.
Irrespective of tho merits Of this controversy,
It ia difficult to sec what bearing the
strike has upon tho general market for socur-
tiles. Practically all of the railroads that
handle tho bituminous coal product OF Ohio arc
BANKRUPT, and no Is the Baltimore and Ohio
Company which operates in both districts. Tho
only other transportation company that is
largely interested in carving bituminous coal
to market is the Pennsylvania Railroad. tho
stock of which ia not dealt in on this Exchange.
1t appears. therefore. that the bearisb sentiment
that has been enpendered by the strike of tho
| bituminous coal miners ia largely sentimental
| and has little logical foundation.
