WHAT HE SAYS OF HIS LAST TRIP.
In speaking of his Alaskan trip Mr
nyche says: IN many respects 1t has
been the most interesting trip I ever
made. The scenery is fine. the noun
part OF the continent: some Of them are
stin putting forth fire and volumes %
smoke while from their sides plough
rivers Of ice. I never saw 50 many fish
in any other place and never had such
fine spor; fishing. Il Is truly a happy
hunting ground for the modern sports
man. The tug-of-war pun which got my
boat 10 the head of the Kn,x river made
the climbing OF a new mountain all the
more eXhilarating. I never had a more
exciting time than on the day when
killed five wild sheeo-the big horn rams
that live only on The highest crags OF
the Alaskan mountains"

AN editorial appeared in the
Reno Journal of a recent date,
which it was our intention to re-
publish, but the copy was mislaid.
The article was in regard to hold
ing a Constitutional Convention,
and hit the nail sguarely on the
head. If there is one thing the
State needs more than another it
is the reduction of her running
expenses, and it has repeated y
been demonstrated that Legislatures
will not give rs this remedy, or, if
one does, the succeeding one will
upset the good work. Some years
ago the people of the State voted
on the question of holding Con
stitutional Convention and carried
it by a considerable majority, but
an arbitrary Legislature in can
wasting the vote threw out the en-
tire returns of several counties
which had declared strongly for
the the measure. Lyon county's
vote was thrown out on the flimsi-
est kind of technicality. The
question is to be voted on again,
the last Legislature having passed
a resolution to that effect, and every
newspaper in the State which has
the good of the State at heart,
ought to advocate this measure.
Those who are opposed to the meas
ure claim that the holding of the
Convention would be a great ex-
pense to the State, and that is
about the only argument they have
against it. But we contend that
the expense would not be so great
as the opponents claim. Twenty
thousand dollars ought to foot all
the bills in holding IL Convention,
and even if it should cost $4,000
we are prepared to show that this
expense would be warranted in
making the change.

Fire in Chinatown.

About | o'clock last Monday after.
noon the fire bell sounded an alarm.
The wind was blowing heavily at
the time, and everybody turned ont
in hurry to answer the alarm.
The fire was found to be in an un-
derground hut in Chinatown occu-
pied by "Hully," the Chinese fish
and vegetable peddler. A stream
was turned on from the engine in
very short order, but the fire was
hard to get at and was not subdued
for a couple of hours. Sheriff Ran
dali fell through trap door in the
den and before he could get ont had
his hair and mustache somewhat
singed. The fire boys did good
work and saved the large building.
known as the old Sutro building,
which stands nearly over the un-
foreground hut. This hut of the
fish peddler's was a notorious rem
devious for opium smoking Piute
bucks and squaws, and it was at
first thought that some of these
people might be in the cellar, but
such did not prove to he the case.
The loss is trifiing except to poor
old "Hully," to whom the loss of ii
shirt means bankruptcy.

The Secret Service has unearthed another
quantity OF bogus bills, which are so cleverly
executed that the average person would never

great value are always selected by counter
feiters for imitation. notably The celebrated
Hostetters Stomach Bitters. which has many
imitators but no equals for indigestion. dyspep-
STA. constipation. nervousness and genera, de
bility. The Bitters sets things right in the
stomach, and when the stomach is in good
order it makes good blood and plenty OF it

THE INDUSTRIALS.

Grumblers in the stock market are
finding very little to console themselves
with just now. The bottom has
dropped out of about everything they
have tried to conjure up except COM
binations, and now they, too, are forti-
flying themselves very effectively. The
greatest clincher of all is their ad-
vance in wages of their employees. The
steel companies, in particular, are Of
fering an excellent example. From
last January to date the American
Steel and Wire organization has in
creased the pay of its employees 40
per cent. The Illinois Steel company,
which is now a constituent concern of
the Federal steel trust, will, beginning
the first of the coming year, institute
a wage scale under which its work.
men will receive the highest price ever
paid for labor of this class. The wages
of each of some 300 skilled workmen
will amount to fully $500 per month,
and the compensation of the rest,
skilled or unskilled, will be increased
in like proportion. These are instances
which will be, or have already been,
emulated by many other conveniently
called industrials. The industrial that
cannot afford to allow employees to
participate in their general prosperity,
will be suspected of something that
they would prefer not to have thought
of them.
