WHERE ARE TREYe

Alf Chartz, in the Genoa Courier,
saws: 1t has been remarked as
something extraordinary that a
squad of Deputy Sheriffs fired into
a number of workingmen in Penn
sylvania and killed over twenty of
them, but not a single American
was struck. The impression evil
IDENTIFY sought to be conveyed was
that Americans are not favored
with employment. ] take the fol-
lowing list of names from recent
dispatch with reference to gold
shipments from Europe to New
York: $1,000,0O0 engaged by La
denburg, Thalman & Co., 1000
by Kuhn, Loeb & Co., 81 800, 900
by Lazard Freres, 100000 by
Knaught, Nachad & Kahn. There
is not an American in the gang,
and you may watch the shipments
for year, and shoot at the ship
pers and never strike an American.
You may shoot into procession of
the leading business men of Mar
ket street, San Francisco, and kill
fifty without hurting an American.
You can dynamite the police force
of New York and never touch an
American. Where the devil are
the Americans, anyway?

SPAIN made reply to the United
States this week on the Cuban
question, but what has been said
will probably not be made public
until Congress meets. However,
it is believed that the reply is about
on the following lines: 1t expresses
regret at the fact that the insurrec-
ton in Cuba receives support from
frequent American flibustering ex-
peditions;" that otherwise the re-
bellion could not possibly exist. 1t
is hoped by granting autonomy to
Cuba aud Withdrawing American
support that the instruction will
soon be ended. Further, it is offic-
tally announced that the Spanish
note throughout by an energetic
tone 1t is finally announced in
Official circles that Spain is deter
mined to take more energetic mill
tary action against the Cuban in
surgents. This is all very fine to
talk about, but there is no power
on earth that can prevent patriotic
American citizens from aiding the
Cubans in every possible way. 1t
is also absurd to think that Spain,
by sending over a few thousand
more troops, can win war that
has already taken 100000 men
from Spain. Cuba should be an
nexe6 to the United States at once,
be the consequences what they may,
or in years to come Uncle Sam will
see the folly of being so tender
footed.

THERE is an excellent journal
called the Western Mining World,
published in Butte, Montana, which
claims to be devoted to the mining
interests of the West. Nevada is a
mining State, and is in the West,
but we have scanned the pages of
the Western Mining World for year
or more and have yet to see min
ing item in it regarding Nevada.
Why this prejudice?

ONE of our State exchanges says:
"Pay your poll tax this year or you
will have to pay two next year be-
fore you can vote" Can this be
done? The law says you must show
poll tax receipt for 1897 and 1898
before you can be registered and
vote. If you do not pay your poll
tax this year you can get no receipt
for it next year, and will be dis
qualified. There is another point
in the abomiGable law that is going
to work an Inconvenience. Many
tax-payers-nearly aldo not pay
a poll tax until they pay their other
taxes to the Treasurer, and this they
do but few days before taxes are
delinquent. Taxes are delinquent
after the first Monday in December
of each year. You must be regis
tered before November next year,
however, to be entitled to vote, and
this means that You must pay your
poll tax before the time set for all
taxes to become delinquent. Fur
ther, we believe you must pay poll
tax this year to vote next year. You
cannot pay poll tax in 1898 and
get a receipt for 1897, unless you

The Pavilla family, consisting of
Mr.. and Mrs. Pav;lla and their son
and daughter, gave two performan-
ces here this week-last Sunday and
Monday evenings. They are quite
clever people, and the dancing of
the little girl was very pleasing
feature of the entertainment. The
house was poor each night for some
unaccountable reason; maybe be-
cause of hard times, possibly be-
cause many went to Virginia to see
the veriscope show, but more prob
ably because an entertainment can
not be we'll given in the hall. There
is no staging, and the work of the
artists has to be given on the level
floor, which makes it very inconven-
lent for those who do not secure
front seats to get good view of the
performance. The company gave
an entertainment that was deserv-
ing of better patronage. They left
here Tuesday for Genoa, Gardner
vile and other points in Carson
Valley.
