CARSON CITY, July II, 1898.
During the week ending July 18th,
light showers fell in the western por-

calities to benefit ranges and grain.
Hayinq continued over the northern
half with favorable conditions. In some
sections of Lyon and Churchill the
second crop of alfalfa is 6 to 20 inches
high. Wheat and barley are maturing
rapidly in the western counties.

So far as we have been able to learn
from the newspaper reports of Con.
g%ressIonal proceedings, the Omnibus
Bill, providing among many other
claims for the payment OF $404, 040 to
the State OF Nevada on account of old
Indian war claims, was still In the hands
OF the Conference Committee when Con-
gress adjourned and will accordingly
have to wait for final action until next
session. Then, with many new men in
Congress, the fight will have to be made
all over again with good chances of de-
feat, as has been the fate OF the meas
ure so often in the past. Old "Uucle
Bill Stewart" has had his thumb in the
pie for a long time, but still failed to
pull out the plumb in time to feed it to
Nevada voters this fall. There is little
doubt, however, but what 1t will be
dangled before our eyes.

VIRGINIA CITY, NEW, Jan. y, 1897.
A valuable mare driven by Superinten.
dent Lyman of the Con. Virginia mine
on the Comstock lode, had been in the

another animal received on the inside
of the right foreleg above the knee.
The skin had been broken, and the

liniment Trib, thoroughly rubbing In
half a six-ounce bottle over the whole
leg. I applied it regularly twice a day
for the next three days. On the fourth
day the mare vent to work completely
cured-the most surprising and salts
factory cure coming under my observe
ton DURING a lifetime devoted to til
treatment OF horses.
During the past eight months ! hav'
used this liniment regularly In my prac

An especially valuable feature OF Tril
is that while 1t has all the penetrating
strength of the most powerful linIment
1t does not blister.
For love OF the horse and the fellow
ship of horsemen, I offer this testimony
I know that Trib will benefit both.

TROUBLE At CAMP sADlER.


Poor Record of our State Militia
The Nevada militia, or rather a very
small remnant Of it with a large num-
Der of recruits from outside the militia,
are now in camp at Carson, preparatory
to being mustered into the United
States service as the Nevada Infantry
Battalion. There are six companies
in camp, numbering about 400 men.
OF these only 90 belonged to the
militia and adding to them the 30 mill
tiamen who enlisted in the two cavalry
companies, we find that only 122 nj OF
339 men enrolled in our State militia
have enlisted in all of the volunteer Or
CARNATIONS raised in this State for the
present war.
The question presents itself. "Why
should the taxpayers of the State sup
port an organization in time of peace
which refuses to serve in time of war;"
We certainly have no use for militia
companies that exist simply as social
clubs. We don't want to buy uniforms
to attract the ladies and pay armory
rent for club rooms. We laughed when
the famous Seventh of New York was
~disbanded, but it looks 10Y as though
we laughed too soon.
Naturalization has been rife in the
State militia for some time. A court
martial was recently forced to disband
Battery A. There was trouble among
the officers over the appointments to
commissions in Capt. Cox's troop OF
Rough Riders. Now we submit the
following item from the last Reno Ca
zette, which looks as though there is
open mutiny at Camp Sadler:
Special to the Gazette.
CARSON, July Is. The Reno com
pany is allowed to choose its old officers
and is given first place in line, Carson
second place and its own officers. tt e
Governor tried to consolidate Compan-
les B and E, and named as officers Nor
rison as Captain and Sanders and Pine

volted and agreed to consolidate only
II the present Captain of one company
is made Captain aud the other Major,
Companies A and D were merged int
one with Colburn as Captain. Kicking
companies say if concessions are MOI
made they will not enlist.
Such petty jelousies are a disgrace tt
the young men who are supposed tc
have offered their services unselfshly
to their country and their conduct car
not be too severely condemned by the
press and people Of the State.

SUMMARY OFTHENE VS.
AS GATHERED FROM OUR Bx-
CHANGES.

United States Marshall Enlmitt has
appointed II. J. Humphreys of Mill
City as his chief deputy, Major Dennis
having rendered his resignation.
Col. F. c. Lord, formerly commander
of the Nevada militia, received his com
mission as Paymaster with the rank OF
Major last Saturday and vas ordered to
report at once TO San Francisco.
The S. F. Call gives a picture of the
Nevada cavalry at drill. 1t would take
a powerful glass and a vivid imagin-
ltion to recognize any of the boys, but
it is some satisfaction to know they
have at least been furnished their
horses.
Major J.. II. Dennis has been APP
pointed as the representative from Ne
gada on the Democratic National Con-
g~ressional Committee. The place has
been vacant since the death of Hon.
r. p. Heating.
The Tuscarora Times-Review says
t nat the Ezra mine, which adjoins the
famous Dexter on the west, is rapidly
coming to the front as a producer. The
I'D workings have been pumped out
md a ten-foot ledge exposed which av'
,rages $40 in free gold, besides a rich
streak going as high as $500 a ton. A
mill has been secured and thefeduction
of ores will be begun by August lst.

Riches from the Dexter

The Salt Lake Tribune says: The
Dexter of TuscarOra, New, came in
with both barrels loaded to the mus
1le yesterday, and discharged their con
tents At the National Bank of the Re
public, where Sl2, 900 was placed to the
sredit of the company. The consign-
nent consisted of a brick that weighed
in at Sc, 800 and a batch of auro-cyan-
ides from which $500 was derived.
The arrival of this shipment from the
Dexter increases the output for the
month beginning on June 9TH to S21,
ia, and the prediction is made that for
July the earnings will be even greater.
