The conference was begun Friday af-
ternoon in the rooms of the Mill Mems
association. President Chase opened
the session by stating that the manufac-
turers had come to the conclusion, in
view of the fact that the print cloth mar
ket was advancing and showing signs
of an even firmer tone, that a raise in
wages of 10 percent could be given the
operatives at the original date set for
the percent advance to go into effect.
They asked the members of the council
to stand by the original agreement, made
one week ago, substituting, however, the
words 40 percent" for the percentage
named at that time.
The manufacturers, while not willing
to admit that Matthew Borden's stand
upon the wage question had forced
their hand, admitted that they were
disappointed at his action. They felt
that he hau not treated them justly.
They had authentic information few
weeks ago, when the agitation for an
increase was begun, that Mr.. Borden
was opposed to the advance and would
fight against granting 1t. On the
strength of this the manufacturers
committee said they sold 2,O00,00 futures
to next March, at figure that did not
consider any advance in wages. After
wards, before they finally decided to
give the operatives 5~percent advance
Mr.. Borden was reported as being with
the Manufacturers association in what
ever action hey took. The manufac-
turers feel that they have been made
dupes, and are losers in every way by
what they term the 'treacherous con-
| duct of Matt Borden
Four of the five textile unions held
meetings Friday and in each instance
the proposition submitted by the hanu-
| facturers' committee in the afternoon
was accepted by vote which m sht be
termed unanimous. The action taken
by the four unions represented about
10, 900 operatives. The slashers did not
meet but their attitude accords with
that of thoil 'cllow workers.

NeWlands' Mistake Corrected

Mr.. Newlands had attached to the APP
priation for the Carson Mint a provision
making it optional with the Secretary of
the Treasury to convert it into an assay
office. The Senate Committee on Appro-
priations reported the Legislative bill
striking Out the option and leaving the
appropriation for a mint.
Senator Jones undoubtedly had this
correction made because the contest for
the last ten years has been to prevent
reducing the mir- to an assay office. If
NewlandS had ke;t the run of the bust
ness, he would no. have given up the
mint by ~suggestiI a provision which
would inevitably reduce it to an assay
Office. 1t is true that the Secretary of the
Treasury recommended the provision
giving him the option to destroy our
mint, and Mr.. NeWlars't unfortunately
fell into the trap.

CARD FROM Mr.. GILLESPIE
He Brands as False and Libel
Gus the Charges Of
the News.
Gold Hill, New, Jan. 26, 1899.

Gold Hill, New, Jan. 26, 1899.
EDITOR APPEAL: The Carson News of
the 25th contains a most libelous article
against me, headed "Gillespie Skips Out
of Town, etc." charging that l departed
for California never again to show my
head in Nevada, the State / had betrayed
for an estimated sum of $1,000. The other
slandsrous details are unimportant.
The infamous charge that l have re-
ceived $1,000 or any other sum, compen-
satiOn or promise of compensation, is
utterly false, and the man who made the
charge is a caluminatOr and is guilty OF
criminal libel. / absented myself from
the House on the day of election of a U,
S. Senator, because l knew there was ne
chance for a Republican to be elected
and l was unwilling 10 play a part in Mr.
NewlandS' scheme to produce a deadlock,
because [ was never i'll favor of Mr.. New
lands for L. S. Senator. Tvs not elected
to support Mr.. Stewart, and therefore
did not feel justified in voting to carry on
Newlands' program ortO vote for Senator
Stewart: and if | had been present
should have declined to vote. I went
home, as | had a right to do. Your:
truly. WILLARD d. GILLESPIE,
Republican Assemblyman from Storey

A Great Machine.

The Bullion and Exchange Bank has
lately added a clerical machine to its
business. 1t is named the Burroughs
Registering Account and it's a wonder.
The front of the machine is composed of
a series of buttons like a typewriter and
the operator whe wishes to add up a col
umn of figures touches the buttons which
print the figures on a strip of paper. The
columns of figures are kept true and
after the amount is all printed a rank is
given a turn and the sheet of paper comes
out with the sum total added up and
printed.
Mr.. Richard said that the machine does
work in 40 minutes that formerly took
three hours. SOmeO of the additions fill a
slip Of paper two or three feet long and
the machine has never made a mistake.
1t is a great machine.

Protect the Fish.

Steps should be taken to enforce the
fish law, as there are now a number en-
gagged III unlawf.Iiy taking the fish from
the river. Ii this practice should be
followed by everybody, the Iruckee
would soon be depopulaled OF the tinny
tribe. 1t seems that all true lovers Of The
rod should band together and see that
laws are passed and enforced. 1t would
also be a good idea to pass a law forbid
ding the shipping of fish and game out of
the State. There are a dozen or more of
Japs and Cinnamon who fish day and
night during the open season, and most
any other time, for that matter, q
make good money by shipping to Cali
fornia. Yet these same Japs AL china
men pay not a cent in taxes, nor in any
other way aid in promoting the fish in
dustry. What's the matter with a little
concerten action? Let somebody take
the lead.-JOurnal.
Such an action on the part of our
neighbors would be truly cOmmendable
and encouraging to those interested in
the Preservation and propagation of fish
in the Truckee river. The greatest draw
back met with in keeping the river well
stocked has been the IpOor support re-
ceived from the people of Nevada. 1t
has been poor encouragement to try to
keep the river well stocked when it has
been known that fish that go down the
river have only The poCres;.chance to get
back again. With proper protection in
Nevada with the right care the Truckee
would be what it ought to be-the great
est trout stream in the wOrld.-Trucket
Republican.
Now is the time to take action on this
matter. The Nevada Legislature is il
session and every aid should be given tC
help the matter.
The first step should be to appoint {
fish commission and make laws. witt
penalties attached, which Will prevent
unlawful fishing.
