We understand the opal mines form
erly worked by Anchor. Shirley & Co. in
this county have been sold to u company
from Philadelphia. We are glad 10
learn this. First. because We believe
there are as good opals in this cocnty as
can he found anywhere and il would be
pity TO have such promising prospects
lay id:e. Second. because the parties
who sell are the kind OF men who most
likely will invest their money in otht =
mining prospects and do their best to
develop them.-DeLanar Nugget.
Some people imagine they have per
feet right TO eriticise a newspaper editor.
They seem to think that an editor must
always conform to their idea OF things,
and are very much surprised when he
does not listen to their harangues. If
an editor understands his business, and
he should not be an editor if he does
not, all the criticisms and personal abuse
heaPed upon him by his enemies does
not effect him in the least. He attends
strictly to his own business and gives
others The same opportunity. Paris

Nevada is reported to be enthused
over n propoeitiC to establish a state
lottery, and there is talk OF calling an
extra session OF the legislature to chat
ter it. The people of the state would
better turn their attention to some
other form OF industry. Instead of
bidding for the immigration Of prize
fighters and lottery sharks, they should
bid for the brains and money Of more
men like Duke" Mayham and his as
soeiates who are opening mp the re-
sources of the Gold Creek region.-Id.ho

says that in the east old party align
ments are breaking up and that the
people are dividing into gold and silver
camps. The amalgamation of the silver
republicans and silver democrats in the
municipal ampzign here, he says, is
the night movement. II is in line with
The sentiment all over the country and
only an initial movement in the gress
division of the people that will have
been accomplished before another
national campaign rolls around.-Poca-
