of the General Assembly will be held there
permanently, and this will induce Presby-

attract other meetings until the place will
become what it's promoters intended it
should be-a second Chautauqua.

For many years past Appletons Annual
Cyclopeda has had an article giving tinan-
cial review of the preceding year. The re-
view of 1896, just published, says;
The presidential campaign of this year
was an important disturbing factor, unset
Ting all financial, commercially and indus
trial enterprises for nearly three months,
and it was not until the election that there
was any recovery. Then confidence was re-
stored, and there was a decided improve
ment in the general situation, which con
tinued to the end of the year The
election resulted in the success of the Re
publican national ticket, and there was an
immediate restoration of confidence. Money
grew easy; the premium on gold vanished;
boards of gold and of currency We're re-
leased: capital sought employment; business
revived industrial enterprises were re-
sumed: the net gold in the treasury in
creased; the loans. cash and deposits of the
banks were rapidly augmented, and pros
porous conditions generally prevailed.
Under the head of Money the review
says:

NAMED unchanged until after the election
in November, when the offerings grew more
liberal and rates gradually fell to 3 per
cent for thirty to sixty days, 312 TO per
cent for ninety days, and for longer
periods.
Under the head of Stocks" the review
says:
In June the market was generally heavy.
The trading was small early in the month,
but after the second week there was more
activity and an improved tone on the nomi-
nation of Mckinley and Hobart at st.

raAr nauNDARY LINE.

---------------
Surveyor General Pratt is now
engagedlin running q boundary line
between Douglas and Lyon coun-
ties. 1t IL not knnwn just where
this line will be, but it will take
from Lyon county all the territory
IN Smith Valley and some IN Mason
Valley. This boundary line guess
zion hns been one OF contentiopsexeeF
since the people of this county fall
ed to elect z. Pierce, of Smith Val
ley. to the high and honorable pos
ftion of ACKNOWLEDGMENT, in 1888.
Immediately he began laying plans
TO. get . portion Of Lyon county
eanlexed to Douglas. He has 2 lt
succeeded yet, although the people
Of Douglas county have paid him
regularly for his services as lobby
ist, etc. at the different sessions OF
1.-The Legislature since 1888. Mr.,
Pierce's grievance has been 80 per-
sistently aired that he has made II
great many of the people in Smith
Valley believe that they are not on
tie map at all, and never will be,
e.until they. are q part OF some other
!. county than Lyon.
I Some years ago, TO quiet The boun-
i, dairy line question, the lipe was re-
! run. according to an act OF the
Legislature. Douglas county re-
fused to pay her part Of the expense
IN running the line, and Lyon
county sued to recover the amount.
Judge Rising decided that line
had been run according to the law
and that Douglas county must
pay, which She did.
Now then, another old law has
been dug up wherein it makes it
the duty Of the Surveyor General
to establish any disputed line, and
Mr.. Pratt is carrying out the work
He may be unbiased in the matter,
and only performing his duty as
pointed out by the law, but those
who know how eager he has always
been in years past to assist Douglas
county, cannot help but feel that
Lyon county viii, to say the least,
not be benefited at all by having
another boundary line established
by him.
We are contending that the ran
: ming Of this new line is hut USE
less expense. The line between
these two counties has been estab-
lished slice the founding OF Esmer-
aida county. When the Smith
Valley people were IN ESiIIeralda
county the line between that county
and Douglas was the same, practi-
cally, as it is now. Smith Valley
people paid their taxes in Esmer-
aida county before that portion of
the county belonged to Lyon, and
they paid them in Lyon before Mr..
Pierce found out he could not be
elected TO Office by Lyon county
vntes, and ever since. 81
II il ridiculous that such small
matter should be made so promi-
-,nspt and costly to the people of tlse
two counties concerned. ..r \

The Spaniartis are particularly an

from their own contemporary dafa In
the daily press and from utterances OF
their statesmen all his Information
about lack Of honesty in the elections
and in the parliamentary government,
and about notorious abuses in their
home administration. even at the capi-
tai. The conclusion Mr.. Taylor draws
from such premises In favor OF Amer
lean Intervention for the settlement OF
the Cuban question has given much Of
fense at court and in official and poi1t-
fcal circles because it il deemed cal
culated TO counteract the favorable i'm
precision the Spanish note had made in

cluding the President and his cabinet
Some Spanish papers affect to make
light Of Mr.. Taylor's statements, and
say that they will not alter the effects
Of the Spanish note which has success

by the American government. which

out 90 strong a case on grounds OF IN
ternational law against federation OF

moral and material assistance being
given to the insurgents from the United

Manufacturing Interests Demand Some
Concessions to silver. But the Bankers

Washington. Nov A sentiment in
favor of bimetallism by an information
al agreement has been growing very
rapidly among the manufacturing in
dustries and the labor leaders Of Great
Britain, chiefly because of their expe-
rience in the export trade with silver
using nations. While the market price
of nearly all varieties and grades OF
merchandise is considerably lower in
England than ever before, as In the
United States the reduction has not
kept pace with the decline OF silver.
and the purchasing power Of the local
currency in India and Central and
South America is less than half what 1t
used to. That is, a man who receives
his wages or the price Of his produce
In silver. as everybody in these coun-
tries IL compelled to do. is able to buy
no more than half as much as formerly
with the same income. and to keep up
their trade the British manufacturers

ble without great success They have
becD convinced that their only hope IL
In securing some international arrange-
menf by which the rates Of exchange
may be decreased and made stable and
a fixed parity between gold and silver
established. They realize that this can
only be done by a modification Of the
fiscal policy of the British government
and have converted several members
OF the present ministry to their way of
thinking. 1t was this influence which
induced Lord Salisbury to give an as
surance to the ambassadors Of the
United States and the French republic
last summer that England would make
some concessions toward the remoned-
zation OF silver. But the influence Of
the banking interests in London was
too strong for him anu he was forced
to yield.
The acceptance by England Of an in
vitation to participate in a monetary
conference would have been a gratify
ing assurance to everybody engaged in
the export trade. Nearly all the pro-
v1ncial papers of importance. especi-
ally those published at Manchester. Bir-
mingham. Sheffield and other great
manufacturing centers. are oufspoken
in favor OF bimetallism. although the
London newspapers are almost unani-
nous in opposition to such a policy.
