The Virginia and Truckee claim
that they ought not to pay any taxes
on their property. which vas given to
them and out Of which they have
made twenty millions or more, be
cause their business has fallen off.
There is undoubtedly a great falling
off in business, but if the railroad
would do business at reasonable rates
there would be a great deal more
business to be done. If the railroad
allows stages and teams and foot1nen
to tase its business away because its
charges are extortionate, a plea of
want OF business cones with very bad
grace.
We believe that there is no othe-
railroad in the United States which
has been as profitable, and out of
whicn the owners have made as much
money without investing a cent as
the Virginia & Truckee, and we be-
li-ve that the Virginia & Truckee is
the only rail road in the world that is
unable to compete with teams and
footmen, except perhaps the Carson
& Colorado which is under the same
management.

WHAT IS IT?

Cleveland as a candidate.
The Republican papers in the State
are bitterly 4 ~uncing him as a
traitor ard rcae. de from that party
and say they would las Don warm a
rattle-snake next their hearts as W
again take him into their ~councils.'
They also denounce him as a sore
head and mugwarnp in the ranks of
the Silver Party.
The Democrats do not claim or ap-
pear to want him. Mr.. Chartz APP
pears to be his running mate, but where
is he at?
In Carson his street connubiators
were of ancient G. 0. P. stripe but
not one of those who listened to his
street corner talks appeared on the
stage to support him in his maiden
effort before an audience composed
largely of Republicans and the hang
ers on of the local railroad. Can the
regular Republican Legislators con-
scientiously, vote for a bolter from a
National Republican convention?
Can Legislators elected upon regular
silver tickets vote for a man who is
trying his level best to defeat the Sill
yer Party of Nevada? Does he expect
enough Pops and s~oreheads will be
elected to give him a vote which will
save him from derision? Or, does he
hope that his TRADES will pave the
way for the use of sufficient money to
buy his way to a seat in the .. S
Senate?
1t is a puzzle to determine wha'
possible foundation for hope he can
build upon in either of the above
propositions. If the latter he is prob
ably counting upon the sort of ma
terial which composed the Legislative
bodies when he was a paid lobbyist 0
the railroads.

Cleveland has lately become a gold
man as witness his remark i'll his
s.-ech at Carson:
"!t is true that, ~"perhaps' tbs re
rlonetization of silver would be a
good thing for Nevada.'
When he bolted the Republican
convention at St. Louis in 1896 for
declaring in favor of gold, was he
then in doubt as to whether or no.
free coinage would be a good thing
fur Nevada?

STRANGE BED-FELLOWS

Nothing has surprised TIE people Of
Carson so much as the Earring ele-
ments composing the anti-Stewart,
V. & I. R. R. combine. 1t must
have required some powerful agency
to have induced the formation of a
syndicate composed of Trenmor Coffin
H. M. Yerington, ALT. Chartz, a. c.
Cleveland and Jim Dennis. The
blending ct these individuals in uni
o. for the great and patriotic pur-
pose of destroying the Silver Party
and defeating Senator Stewart is d
notable incident in the tactics Of the
goldlte managers.

Cleveland S reason Tor aspiring to
the Marshalship of Utah on a home
rule plank was to get money to spend
in Nevada instead of California.
What would have prevented him from
spending his money in Utah, if he
had been appointed? Does he not
trade principally in Salt Lake today
instead of Nevada? Oh, "Cleve"
this excuse is gauzy.

"Knobs O'Tennessee"

The story of Lincoln J. Carter's
and Hal Reds beautiful play.
KNOBS o. Tennessee" is as follows:
Madeline Bailey, the rich and refn-
ed daughter Of Col. Bailey Of Mem
phis, has seen, fallen in love with
and is married 10 Joe Preston, one
Of a family Of moonshiner., and is
disinherited. Henry Preston, bro
Their to Joe, has been accused in
nocently of the murder Of a govern.
ment officer, but being sick at
home and aursed by his mother is
able TO prove this alibi. Desp ite
this he is convicted and the rope
is ready when he is rescued from
the sheriff by Joe and other moon
sinners, all of whom believe noon
shining a God given right. Col.
Bailey, Madeline's father, has de.
termined that she shall marry
George German who is chief Of
the government deputies in that
district Of Tennessee. The old
mother Of the Preston's is half
crazed at her younger sons plight
and when finally the "Goy'ment
Spies do take Henry and tell her
that he is to 60 back to punish
ment, she shoots him dead at her
feet rather than see him hang.
The father Of the Preston's, a one
armed veteran goes to President
Mckinley and begs for the pardon
Of his wife and elder son for the
crime of moonshining and when
the President finds that he lost
his arm at Gettysburg the pardon
is granted.
The last act discovers that a
mica mine has been found on the
place thus making the Preston's
rich, George Germaine is in
prison for long term for having
forged Col. Bailey's name for sever
al large amounts, The comedy is
furnished by an IRISH lad in love
with a Swede girl and an anti
bellum "nigger" who loves the
Prestons too we'll to take his
freedom.
