a LEGISLATIVE PROGRAM.

Hon. 9. d. Van Duzer has a long
communication in the Reno Gazette
in which he outlines the following
program for the coming legislature:
Il The defeat OF the proposed lot
terry amendment.
. The repeal Of tie prize-fght
law.
3 The passage OF a revenue Law
ducing the rate OF taxation.
4 Passage Of an eight-hour labor
law.
D An antiques law.
6 Liberal and generous support
ot.the State University.
Z An amendment OF mining laws.
s Such Incidental legislation Is
each county requires.
Q The passage OF the general ap-
preparation bill early in the session,
and an adjournment Within thirty
days.
The protection OF the States repu-
t~ation. the protection OF the taxpayer
and the stimulating o: State develop.
ment should be III guiding notices.
II Mr.. Van Duzer can succeed In
bringing the legislature up to the
plane necessary to carry out his pro-
gram. he will accomplish a splendid
work and deserve well OF the State.
a legislature that means business
can pass all the needed legislation in
thirty days and save the taxpayers a
vast amount OF money That is usually
nquandered by p%rotractng the session
to the constitutional limit Of sixty
days. There are generally enough
members, who pay nc taxes and have
no interest in the welfare OF the State
farther than to draw their IS per day,
to defeat IN early adjournment Of the
legislature. Unless this class is in the
minority, the next session of the
Legislature will run sixty days.
MIR. Van Duzer has omitted one im-
portant matter from his program and
that Ii the passage OF an Act calling
a convention to revise the censtitu-
ton OF the State. The Democrats in
the legislature are pledged to vote for
such a measure and they should see
that u constitutional convention is
called.

An Important Invention.

The Reno Gazette tells of an inven-
lion by the sons OF John Newmarket,
OF Beno AS follows:
The invention relates to an appara-
tus which will provide a rotary
motion and power by means OF a
generating propeller wheel aud ap
paratus connected the rewith by which
a current Of air is caused to- pass
through the wheel and causes it TO
rotate. The device Is no more MOI
less than what we will call "a wind
mill for the want OF u better name,
fitted at the bottom Of a chimney,
through which the air passes. On
the other side OF this wheel is the
shaft on which a man driving wheel
is attached, and the air passing
through the propellmg wheel fur
nishes the power TO drive it. \ belt
may be run from the driving wheel
to any machinery and the power fur.
nished promises to be sufficient to
drive any kind OF machinery.
The Newmarket boys have as yet
only attached the device To a grind.
stone but it runs that terror to farm
boys like rain falling on a roof. The
Newmaker boys are satisfied that
they have "A valuable invention, aud
are preparing to sell county or State
rights. 1t comes neerar solving the
perpetual motion proposition than
anything ever invented. 1t will run
for all time il 1t has n chimney, and
the taller and larger the chimney the
more power.
1t is IL 81 the most valuable
patents yer invented and the Gazette
predicts in it Il fortune for those IN
terested. 1t is certainly a wonderful
piece OF mechanism; Mt once so
simple and perfect that it will run il

Boys. Read This.

-One Of the principal reasons that
SO many boys never Amount to any.
thing i'll Particular said a business
man the other day, "is because the
average boy doesn't pay attention.
You can't depend on him. You EN-.
ploy a boy who looks as il be was
bright enough. iou send him out to
do IA lot Of pyramids. Hc seems to
hear what you told him, but az Il
matter Of fact he doesn't. Half the
things you tell him to do he for gets
and a lot Of the rest he gets wrong.
For Il day after he gets through with
his errands you have complaints COM
ing in from people who get bundles
that they didn't order and who didn't
get tho things they did order. Others
are kicking because they failed TO
get their orders filed with either the
things they ordered or with the
things they didn't. You get out OF
patience and turn the boy off. Prob
ably the second boy is no better than
the first and loses his job. And you
have about concluded that all boys
are alike and that the whole lot are
no account, wheu.you strike u boy who
pays attention. When you tell him
to do Il thing he does it without my
hesitation or fpolishncss. Every
errand Is performed punCtualIy and
without a mistake. That boy is like
u jewel Of great price. You will pay
him twice the ordinary boys wages
before you let him go. In ten years
he il either a partner in the business
or else he il at the head Of an estab-
lishment OF his or at the head OF
some great enterprise, lie il a power
II the land and a man tho world don't
want to do without, while the boys
who didn't pay attention IRE making
n bare living md have hard work to
do that. They had rs good a chance
in tho world as the successful man
had, but they lost the chance because
they didn't pay attention.

Indian Train wreckers.

Detective Dan Fitzpatrick has
been in Winnemucca since Friday
night working upon the causes OF the
train wreck. Upon making an inves.
tigation of the circumstances. he
came to the conclusion that the
switch had been tempered with, and
yesterday arrested two Indian boys
and landed them in jail. accusing
them of beng responsible for the
wreck.
That the switch was thrown Mr..
Fitzpatrick says he has 20 doubt.
The yardmen had last used the switch
about D o'clock in the evening, and
say they are positive the switch was
properly set, the lock inserted in the
clutch and securely fastened, and that
the lock must have been removed. rs
in no other way could it have gotten
loose and allowed the handle to
slide.
Following up II clew. Mr.. FitZpat.
rick decided that the Indian boys had
thrown it and yesterday gathered
them i'll. They were seen at the jail
this morning 10y Il reporter OF the
Silver State and acknowledged that
they were playing with the switch
late Friday evening. They gave their
names as Edward Pascoe and Johnny
Behind The.Rock, each aged about
ii years. They made the statement
that they had been ont in the hills
hunting; and il returning by the
switch, noticed that it was unlocked.
They then removed the lock from the
clutch and raised the handle bar, the
while swinging On the upright signal
rod. They claim that they dil not
turn the handle bar, but say they
lett the lock hanging to the chain
when they wen; away. This fact tai
lies with the conditions rs seer BY
several persons soon after lie wreck
occurred, when the lock was still
dangling at the end of the chain
