Yes, my visit east had to do with
telephone improvements. We have big
schemes in mind, but we need money to
carry them out-from S500,0 to $780,

To secure this money we will increase
the capital stock of the company to
50, 000, 900 or $500, 000-it is now $1,000
600; We will then sell from $50O,Oo0 to
100000 worth of the new stock and in
that way secure a working capital.
Plenty of Money.
''My trip east assured me that there
would be no trouble in selling the stock

When. filling the day with golden glow.

Lighting and gliding the world below.

Shimmering over the grass and flowers
And the tides Of life. both bright and

Rising and flooding the hsloyon hours.

Fondly dreaming the Summer weather
Changeless would linser for M always.
But storms have arisen and we are parted ;
The clods Of the valley lie cold IN Thy

And lingering lonely and brohen-heasted.

SEGREGATION BILL DEFEATED.

Senator Ernst's bill. providing for sub
hitting the question. "shsll Nye county
be segregated ?" 70 the electors OF Nys
county ., the general election OF 1900. was
beaten In the Assembly last week. 1ts de-
feat was due In some measure 10 the oppo-
sition of the Eureka delegation In the
| House. Our members based their objec-
ton upon the impression that Eureka
| county would get but four ranches under
the segregation. This, however, is main
tanned by Senator Ernst TO be an error; he
| claims that Eureka would have Morey,
Fish Lake, Hot Greek. Typo. Reveille,
Freiberg, Troy. Blue Eagle. Duckwsser
and ell the immediate section. We have
heard no expression OF opinion from En-.
reka's citizens regarding the measure. and
do not believe they are very generally
aware OF its provisions.
After the formal sections providing for
submitting the question 70 the voters OF
Nye county at the next election, the bill
proceeded a. follows:
SEQ. 4. II . majority Of the voters upon
said question be In favor Of segregation,
then said Nye county shall be divided up

70 Lander county /; all that portion south
Of the Mount Disblo base and west OF the
line Range As E., NJ. d. M. shall be at
tsched 70 Esmerslds county /; all that por,
ton lying south Of the Mount Diablo base
and east Of Range 48 E., M. d. NJ, shall
be attached 70 Lincoln county ; all that
portion Of the country lying north Of
the Mount Diablo base and east Of Range
4s E., M. d. M, and west Of Range SO E.,
M. d. M, shall be attached TO Eureka
county I; and all that portion lying east Of
the west line Of Range So E.. M. D. NJ.

Sec. G. The records Of Nye county shall
go TO Lander county but transcripts OF
