While it is to be regretted that the
Nevada State claims for money ad-
vanced in aid Of the suppression of the
rebellion could not be paid at this
session of Congress. still the work ex-
pended upon them in getting them in
proper shape has not peer lost. It
will not take the Secretary of the
Treasury long to investigate the
amount furnished by Nevada or by the
Territory of Nevada and assumed by
the State. with such interest on the
same as said State has actually paid.
and when Il report from the Secretary
is received at the next session it it
promised that an appropriation will be
made to pay il al @"t The Nevada
Senators, who have given 50 much
time in preparing lHis case. will continue
their efforts in keeping it before the
attention Of Congress until il is finally
disposed Of. Everything hes heen done
to secure It's payment At this session but
1t was. unaVaillng, "a the House con-
fertcs under no consideration would
agree to pay the claims until Il report
wa received thereon from the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury.
Another reason why they were not
paid at this session was because it was
the object Of the conference committees
tocut down the bill As much a. possible.
As the bin PASSED the Senate it carried
only three million dollars. OF course.
" large number Of meritorious claims
were omitted from the bin on account
OF the necessity of cutting down the
appropriation. but ample provision will
be made early in the next session in a
similar bill providing for the payment
Of those claims which were not included
IN the Omnibus bin. There is no doubt
that Nevadt secured d fair proportion
of the amount Of money appropriated
in the bill and at the next session Of
Congress the Soate WarC Claims will be.
finally settled.

Judging from what we have heard,
the Middle exercise will be a novel

comment to great extent. One

composed it.

Council Proceedings.

The city council at its regular meet
ing last Monday night allowed the
usual bills.
The chief interest seemed to be in
the ordinance taxing druggists. This
matter was taken up in order and af-
ter quite an interesting discussion the
former ordinance placing tax on the
druggists was repealed. This ends a
little fight that has been on for some
time.
The proposition to park the streets
of the city was discussed at some
length, Councilman Abbott leading in
favor Of the parking. The ordinance
was very properly laid over, that the
matter might be more thoroughly
considered. 1t surely would be great
improvement to the appearance of our
city if some such measures were
adopted, especially along the wider
streets, and somebody should have
control Of the matter that uniformity
may be secured.
The Morning Sun was made the Of

Steps were taken to look after the
legislative asylum committee when
they come down to look US over.
Steps were also taken to have our
