Wells, New. Herald We have been

Wholesale slaughter Of fawns and does
by the Indians. is not checked, that in
i've years time the deer in the noun

do not kill them for food, but for the
hides with which to make gloves. 1t is
supposed by many that Indians are al
lowed to kill game at any and oil times
Of the year. regardless of game laws. but
all Indians not living on reservations ere
subject to the same laws as the whites
and can be prosecuted for violating the
same. The matter should be looked into
and such wholesale slaughter stopped.

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

We have received copy Of the psmph.
let issued by the Chicago Record con-
tanning the draft Of . proposed Postal
Savings Bank bill to be introduced ct the
next session Of Congress. The bill. as
suggested, contains the combined thought
Of many minds. drawn from the study Of
the various systems now in operation in
countries all over the world. II is by
no means an experiment. but is produc-
tive Of practical beneficial results wher-
ever ii is in vogue.
The system presents many features
which distinguish it from ordinary bank.
ing. notably in absolute security from
loss. The government being behind it
guarantees to every depositor security
for savings ss solid as the nation itself.
Ii develops habits Of thrift and saving
by encouraging small deposits. Many
persons are deferred from banking saw
ings both from fear Of loss and an aver
sion to making deposit Of small sums.
In postal savings banks il is the small
deposits which are sought. and ell
amounts from one dollar up in multiples
Of one dollar are received. All funds
thus received are free from taxes by
the government OF any State and cannot
be made liable to demand, seizure or de-
teution by any process Of law against
the depositor. Postmssters are strictly
forbidden to disclose the names Of any
person who may become depostor un-
der the system. Married women may
make deposits under this act and control
the same as il they were sole. Minors
above the age Of twelve years may be-
cDme depositors and control the same as
if they were adults. Thus habits OF thrift
and economy may be encouraged in chill
dren at an early age and the foundation
laid for systematic business habits and .
knowledge Of the use and value Of money.
The growth Of the system will natur-
ally be slow, more especially in this
western country, but that il is worthy
Of Endorsement by every thinking man
there is no question,

GOOD FIELD FOR CAPITALISTS,

Throughout the State Of Nevada there
are many valuable mineral deposits, but
il requires capital to develop them, and
the question naturally arises how can
capitalists or their representatives be in
duced to visit our mining districts and
be led to invest in them, There is no
doubt il the mines were properly and in
diligently explored, they would open the
eyes Of the world. All the ores which
abound throughout the State Of Nevads
can be reduced by the cheapest process
adapted to the character of the different
varieties Of the precious metals and very
large profits could be made, and higher
rate Of interest obtained than from any
other Investment now open to capitalists.
IL appears to us that il the mine owners
10 the different districts throughout the
State would gather together fair repre-.
seutstion of the ores to be obtained in
their respective mining camps, properly
label them with data as to the depth at
which the ore was extracted, size Of
ledge. facilities for obtaining wood and
water, etc., and agree upon some Of the
largest business centers Of the Eastern
States as point at which their samples
could be placed on exhibition. it would
result in great good to the State. Any
one Of she great cities would be glad to
have such g selection as could be sent
from this State placed on permanent ex-
hibition in one Of their public buildings.
where they could be inspected by those
interested in mines or mining but as
long as those interested in mines sit down
and wait for capital to come and hunt
them up. just so long will the mining
camps remain as dull as they are at pres.
