THE FIGHT.
Joe GrandeImeyer Comes Out
For John p. Jones.
Hamilton, New. June 7tt

Hamilton, New, June 7th.
EDIToR CARSON APPEAL:-I yould
like to have a few words to saw in
your columns regarding the Senator
lal contest which is soon to come off
In Carson. 1 am surprised that Mr..
Nixon accuses John P. Jones of not
being a bona fide resident. Let me saw
that Nevada had a more bona
q resident than John P. Jones from
the day he first landed in Nevada to
oate, and when the Republicans and
Democrats Of Nevada first elected
him to the Q. s. SeDate, no create
mar ever had at heart the interests of
the miner and mines OF Nevada. T
ask all who are skeptical regarding
Jones to read his great speech made
March, End 1877 and Feb, l4tn 1878.
The press OF the world honored and
complimented it.
1t was Jones Of Nevada who bIazed
the way to restore to the American
people the honest money, the silver
dollar, the great panacea for all our
woes of America. the double STANDARD
OF money, silver on a par with gold of

liberty should honor and appreciate

A NEW RAILROAD
1t is to Run From Truckee to
Tahoe CITY.


People Of Nevada County Cal. have
for u long time been anxious for a
railroad from Fruckee to Lake Tahoe
for the accommodation Of tourists
whose numbers would be largely in
creasedi ii there were railroad facili-
ties between those points. Such a
railroad would be OF great value to
shippers along the route. But there
exists an obstacle in the way in shape
OF the law prescribing that all rail.
roads operating 10 California must be
operated continuously. Senator Prisk
OF Nevada and Assemblyman Robin
Bon OF the same county have prepared
a Dill to remove the legal obstacle
without sacrificing or leopard sing
the rights Of the people. The bill pro-
vldes that all railroads operating in
California whose liues Of road are
wholly constructed at an elevation of
900 feet or more above the level OF
he sea shall only be required to main
tain Ind operate their roads or to RIM
passenger or freight trains thereon
between May l and October Is of each
year.
The road will be built by Mr.. Bliss.

ness Tor many years, but since the
suspension Of so much work on the
Comstock lode he has not been able,
under present conditions, to find a
very profitable market for his lumber.
The road will open a market for him.

OF business. 1t will run along the
Truckee River and will be quite a
Genie road and very attractive to
travellers.
During the winter months snow lies
along the eutire route to a depth Of
to fifteen feet, aud it is therefore
to travel or to TRANSPORT
